A decent performance. Now... to figure out the last test.
-talks privately, to Tagg-
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Alright, only one more test to go.
Lake: <Bet you anything it'll be the hardest one.>
Oh, of course.
-Is talking with Tangent-
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.-having finished the discussion, turns back-
Okay, Luke. For the last test (assuming you have no matches in the morning), you will be spending the night in a wild Pokémon colony. Specifically...

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Specifically what? I hope they're not a dangerous Pokémon like...Ooh, Machop? I think they live around here...
A Cubone tribe.
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.Wait... didn't you guys go to that Cubone tribe a while back?
Cubone? Huh. They're not so bad.
Lake: <I'm going with you though. Just in case something goes wrong.>
Oh. Nobody minds if Lake goes too, right?
— Wait that Cubone tribe? — I kick an imaginary pebble in the ground — Everyone gets to go there but me...
Maekrite (laughs) — <Yeah. Even Dintel...>
Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?The tribe is out to the southeast of here; we should probably try to make contact with them before it gets too late.
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Sounds like a good idea. One thing though: Are they friendly?
Well... on the one hand, they put us all on trial, and broke my arm... on the other hand, that was kinda 'cause I trespassed in their sacred graveyard...
And they treated Pankaja and Abigail well enough, I guess. So just handle them as well as you handled that Luxray, and you'll be fine.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Yeah. Though Iron Marrow's not exactly very nice.
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.Lake: <What?!>
Easy Lake. I'm not planning on trespassing on their burial ground. As Tangent said, I'll just treat nicely like that Shinx and Luxray and we should be fine. I'm going to need you to do the same though, okay?
Lake: <...Okay.>
Besides, I'm sure they'll like you, Lake.
Any preparations we need to make before setting out?
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Not that I can think of. I have all my Pokémon with me, just in case.
Lake: <I've got everything I need, too.>
Dinner.
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.-Is now panicking and training at the same time-
Pokéhugs for Ursarang, too!
-in the air; borrowing Crowley so Lake can ride Basket-
Okay, we met the tribe not far from that clearing last time... look for a patrol.
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?-I'm also in the air, riding on Unite's back.-
Got it Tangent! Unite? Can you see any Cubone or Marowak from here?
Unite: <Nope. Can't see any at the moment. They're either not here, or they're hiding.>
Alright. Keep an eye out, though.
Hmm... let's fly a bit lower; if nothing else, we'll eventually see smoke...
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Unite: <Smoke?>
Well, they must obviously have a fire going.
Unite: <Oh yeah. Can't have a tribe without a fire.>
-Unite swoops down, flying a bit lower to the ground.-
Basket: <Oh, there!>
-A few torches are visible under the tree cover-
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Lake: -Is riding on Basket's back.- <That must be them!>
Unite: <Well, who else would it be?>
Bring us in, Unite.
Unite: <Okay!>
-The Braviary skilfully swoops down and lands on the ground, allowing me to get off.-
Thanks, Unite.
Unite: <No prob'.>
Thanks Tagg.
Keldeo: <Mmm! I love Kelp! Do you think there's any around here?>
Lake: <I don't think so, little guy. Not unless you want to go all the way too Lake Verity.>
Keldeo: <Really? Aww...>
