The shadow Pokemon began to engage them, and Rose panicked. Just fighting some before had caused her Gabite to faint, even though it had won. She could only hope he would be okay. She didn't want to risk sending anything else out to fight them, but she knew she had no choice. She grabbed her Parasect's Pokeball, her hand trembling. Alice's reassuring words helped her, but she didn't feel confident.

Mankey faints from shadow infection?

Almost her entire team was now gone though. Alice came to the realization that this person was Max. Was this true though? It didn't seem possible to Rose. But the things Misty had said... And the tone of Max's voice when he had given him the warning... Could it possibly be? She had simply assumed that it had been reading their minds when it talked to them earlier, but could it have known those things because... Rose didn't want to continue thinking about the possibility. There was one way she could think of to possibly confirm it. "Amirah!" Rose called out, a tear streaming down her left cheek. "Try to focus on it!" She continued, referring to the man who was the cause of all this. "The system in Max's base said that our psychic waves were similar. If this really is Max, I should be able to make some kind of connection." Rose thought. Max had made a connection with her previously. Even if she couldn't do the same, if this really was Max, she thought she could at least confirm this by trying to sense the psychic waves he was giving off, if any... Assuming there were any left. Her senses began to become unfocused, Amirah's energy being diverted to trying to find the waves she had asked for.
