It's a rainy day in Veilstone City, Sinnoh Region. As you look outside from the window, you see the rain is only getting worse. The TV behind you that is left on a news channel tells that team Galactic activity has increased lately and citizens are advised to stay indoors at night. Suddenly, loud knocks can be heard coming from the front door, then a voice.

???: "H-hello? Hey, I need your help, please! I know you're in there—I can sense your aura. Please open the door!"

The voice sounds scared and desperate, it sounds like a female. You thought it was weird that she said she can feel your aura, could it be a Pokémon? As you open the door, it's revealed to be indeed a Pokémon.

Lucia: "Ah- Can you please let me in? Please, I just escaped from some team Galactic grunt. I got left behind by my trainer, and I need a place to stay. Even though I'm only average at battles, I can do many other things!"

💭 Lucia: "I really hate doing this, but I don't have many options... I can't believe he just left me to fend for my self."

The Lucario seems a bit shaken up, her clothes are wet from the rain. She is shivering a little from the cold.
