 When Marnie came back to Galar, she got welcomed by Team Yell at Hulbury and they were making noise without any control, super happy to have her back. Marnie smiled and felt better, although she tried to shut them up, but then the grunts started to ask about Piers and Marnie limited to tell them that her brother needed some time far away from Galar, both for himself and for making growing his audience bigger. Team Yell was sad, but a grunt exclaimed:"We'll cheer for him from Galar and he's gonna hear us!" Marnie prayed that they didn't mean it for real, but she felt happy and relieved to had been coming back home, ready to take her Gym Leader's duty back and training Poochyena and Pawniard.
 Piers and Seikatsu wandered around Mauville City and Slateport City: they looked for new clothes and accessories for the Cool Contest, and eventually new costumes for Piers and his shows too. Seikatsu and Piers almost seemed a couple, as they both tried to get physical contact with the other one: it happened sometime that they wew holding hands, or Seikatsu took his arm to reach him, or he put an arm around her shoulders taking any occasion possible. Zoroark, Banette and Morgrem were focused on finding food stands, so their money disappeared in a few time. As Morgrem was small and sly, he knew what to do: using the tactic of False Surrender he managed to be cute and adorable, with sweet eyes, so he recieved what he wanted fro free, meanwhile Zoroark turned into Zorua or in another cute and irresistible Pokémon that was considerated that way, so he managed to obtain what he wanted too:"What you've got to complain about, Mor? Just 'cause I can make illusion doesn't mean that you are better than me." Morgrem talked back:"Oh, come on Mor! Just 'cause you don't change look unlike me, it doesn't make you better than me." Morgrem growled and chuckled:"Oh, listen here you little mister, just 'cause you've got Fairy-Type on your side, it doesn't imply that I can't kick yo ass, huh." Morgrem giggled and rolled his eyes, shrugging, meanwhile Latios and Banette, which was sat on Latios, exclaimed:"Latios, do you wanna some popcorn as we watch them fighting?"-"I accept the offer Ban, but I am looking at those two clumsy that are flirting to each other in a clumsy way. Guess we should intervene. Or better, I do it. You three are dangerous and mock a lot."-"Mocking? I can become intangible and create some situations where I make falling, little non-lethal accidents, you know! Ih ih ih ih!" Latios rolled his eyes, shaking his head:"Better than those two. Oh, dear Rayquaza, they're still quarreling! I can't take it with those two idiots! As soon as Latias recovers I'll ask her help. I can't handle all of you on my own, and the sentimental situation too." Banette sighed:"I'll help you if you want to, huh. You're not the only responsible one!"-"Since I've developed common sense, I am. You deal with the house just 'cause you're a maniac of cleaning." Banette sighed, then Latios:"I haven't said no to popcorn, give it." Banette chuckled and passed popcorn to him. Morgrem and Zoroark were giving light slaps to each other, and Seikatsu took care of calming them down by punching their heads, then she took Morgrem and Zoroark became a Zorua and went into Piers' hair:"Zoro, come here! I got it that he recalls you your mom, but come on." Seikatsu sighed, but Piers chuckled:"Don't worry, he's really adorable. I'm flattered that this lil fella adores my hair. But was he raised by an Obstagoon?" Seikatsu shook her head:"No, more complex story. And... Oh, look at how's cool that costume of MegaHoundoom! I think that if you would do an opening show with this costume, you're gonna shine! I've got also a fantastic idea!" Piers smiled to see her so enthusiastc to help him and about her ideas. Latios and Banette giggled, then Piers sighed:"Well, I should try. Anyway, this shop makes clothes inspired by Mega Pokémon, cool!" Seikatsu nodded:"Yeah, but they're expensive." Banette popped out between them:"Kiddo, go to get MegaBanette's suit, up up! Latios, it's useless to look at me this way, we all know that the most beautiful Mega Pokémon it's me!" Banette said all proudly, meanwhile Latios rolled his eyes:"Come on, get in. Let's see what might be interesting." Seikatsu and Piers nodded and came in.
 Seikatsu went crazy for MegaBanette and MegaAbsol women's clothes, which left her quite exposed, recieving compliments by Piers: both with words and astonished looks. But Seikatsu had intention to use MegaBlaziken and Honchkrow, so she got dressed with MegaBlaziken woman's suit: wearing pants inspired by the Pokémon and a top, with a mask too:"Mmmh, it doesn't feel right. I look like a wrestler." Zoroark interviened, coming out from Piers' hair:"Ah, you just look like? You weren't?"-"No, big foxy. Why, what you meant?"-"You get into fights with us Pokémon, with Team Moron and Asshole's grunts, I mean: seriously are you asking me?" Seikatsu saw that it looked good on her, but she had preferred to get dressed inspired by Honchkrow, then she had to stand on Zoroark when she saw Piers coming out dressed as MegaHoundoom: pants and top were black leather, on his head he had the horns of the Pokémon, then he had half-sleeve gloves, the pants had studds and the belt had the skull of Houndoom's chest, and where the tail was attached:"Mmh, it's not bad, I really like it a lot. But this tail's a bit lumberin'. What cha think? Seika?" Seika was silent, with the mouth almost opened and with heart shaped eyes, so Banette said, appearing next to Piers:"It's a lot she hasn't fainted. Let's say you've done a great job! Eh eh eh eh!" Banette disappeared immediately, and Piers by her reaction got sure, then:"Why don't cha try an outfit inspired by MegaHoundoom too?" Seikatsu nodded and went to change: it was the same as Piers was wearing, but she had a short skirt instead.  Piers appreciated a lot, then Latios communicated him telepathically:"You know that you're pants are skinny and it's visible everything, right?" Piers blushed a bit, then he replied:"I can't control that, unfortunately." Latios giggled, meanwhile Banette went to tell it to Seikatsu, who was changing her clothes, blushing and blocking:"Nice job, Ban. Now Seika's crushed down." Zoroark exclaimed, meanwhile she fell on the ground, red in her face, and Zoroark kept:"Seika's not able to battle anymore, Piers wins." Latios appeared, making his head poppin into the chaning room:"At least for their first time, don't pop out and don't say it." Seikatsu got herself bacl, growled and threw outside all the three of them.
