    And then suddenly, a high-pitched sound filled our ears as an incredible orange and yellow energy beam surged through the air. The beam honed in on the Rockets’ Pokémon perfectly, striking them in a flash of bright light and sending shock waves running through the earth.

    “H-hyper Beam?” I muttered, my knees shaking from the beam’s not-so-distant impact. I turned my gaze upward, where the attack had originated, and caught sight of a tiny dot in the sky, quickly nearing us.

    “AeeeeeerrRRRRRAAAAAAW!!!!” the dot called out. I could barely make out a gray-scaled form with a long, thick tail trailing behind it. A pair of leathery purple wings beat rapidly, pushing it towards us with incredible speed. It was… an Aerodactyl? One of the fastest Pokémon in the world? As it neared, I was able to tell that it had a rider.

    “Hey, Jade!” the trainer yelled.

    I jerked in surprise. I couldn’t see them clearly yet, but I could never, ever forget that voice.

    “It can’t be…” I muttered. I couldn’t help staring upward, lost for words and unable to believe it. When the winged Pokémon got within view, I could finally see a petite teenaged girl riding on its back—pale-skinned with a bright and confident face and short, black hair blowing back with the wind.

    It really was her.

    “No way… Ajia?!” I yelled.
