Pokemon Pearl 8 Chapter 8 - A Ranger Ally

But the kid, the same one who spied on Rico, Lucas, and Dawn back at the Soratas Meadows, missed everything when he arrived at Campillo's lab. He then asked him, "Excuse me, sir. Who's that kid you're talking to?"

"That's Rico Cruz, "Campillo responded, "Why?" Then that kid, whose name was Ben and was a Ranger from a region named Oblivia, replied, "Uh, I just asked you because I had seen him battling some Pokèmon Pinchers, or Pokèmon thieves."

"Pokèmon Pinchers?" Campillo responded.

"Yes, Pokèmon Pinchers are groups of thieves who kidnap and sell Pokèmon, " Ben seriously replied, "They were divided into three, each led by their own admin. There are three: Red Eye, Blue Eye, and Purple Eye." Puzzled, Campillo replied, "Strange names."

"Yeah," Ben answered, "Anyway, did they told you their address? Because I want to see Rico Cruz."

"Sure, why not," Campillo responded; he then wrote Rico's home address on a piece of paper. It said: "41 Mulberry Street, Metos Kadas, Peñon de Kawayan, Navarre Island, Philas Region;" he then gave it to Ben, who then said, "Thank you, Professor."

"You're welcome, kid," Campillo brightly replied, "And thanks for telling me about those Pokèmon thieves." Ben then left the lab on his Staraptor as Campillo wavered goodbye to him.

After they dropped Dawn at a hotel where she was staying, Rico and Lucas went to a supermarket to buy some Pokemon supplies such as Pokemon Food, medicine, boosters, Pokeb.a.l.l.s, etc. After they paid for them (That is, around 6,000 Pokedollars), the father and son head straight home just in time for lunch.

As they eat, Rico's mother, Rosario, discussed, "So Rico, did the Professor gave you a Pokedex?"

"Yes, how do you know?" Rico replied.

"Well," Rosario responded, "Pokemon Professors gave Pokedexes to trainers often."

"Oh, right," Rico replied; he then continue eating.

Later at night, after brus.h.i.+ng his teeth, Rico called his Riolu out and started playing his guitar for it. His Riolu then started to embrace the music Rico was making. After that, Rico read a book for his Riolu, which in turn it likes his reading. When the time reaches 9:57 p.m., Rico and Riolu slept together in one wooden bed.
