You find Mindu in the Silvercoal Fitness Centre swimming pool, which is occupied by many Water-type Pokémon and a few non-Water types. You can see that some sort of exercise class is happening and Mindu is the teacher, so you wait for it to finish. She instructs her students to swim a dozen laps of the pool after spotting you, then swims over to the side of the pool while you crouch down. You slip into the water so that the two of you can talk at eye level.

"Nice of you to test the waters and come on in!" she grins. "Look, I ain't saying I ain't willing to work with you people, but I do have a class to run, so make it snappy."

You assume that Mindu found out about the Emissaries through some other means and decide not to bother introducing your mission to the usual extent. Instead, you introduce yourself personally and ask her what she knows about suspicious activity.

"I have a pretty strict schedule, Marta," she tells you, "so I don't get to see a lot of my friends and family. What I do see of them is nothin' but the usual. Aunt Fran is always goin' on about that gang of Sharpedo in Coral Reserve, mama's carryin' on about how poor my brother's life choices have been, and my brother, well, he just keeps makin' bad choices. My dad ain't got time for us no more, what with his other family and all." She rolls her eyes. "But you heard enough of that! You want something juicy, dontcha? Sorry to break it to ya, but I've got little to nothing to offer you." Her eyes quickly wander to a tentacool who seems to be lagging behind. She turns from you and shouts, "DON'T BE A SLACKER, GERI!" and then turns back to you. "Heh, gotta give 'em some tough love, know what I mean?"

"Anyway, I should be gettin' back. Got another five classes to do today and they ain't cheap for these poor suckers. Ain't that right, Julie?!" she shouts, and you hear a vague response from a Wailmer. "Oh, and one more thing: there's something creepy near the Running Track if you wanna go check that out. All of us have been too hesitant to go near that thing. Well, that and look at me! Ain't no legs here!" She cackles at her own joke and then turns serious again. "Alright, get a move on. I got students to attend to."
