Ashika, Okami and Bakeru joined Jen's Pokémon in comforting their trainer. Ashika sang some comforting melodies and Bakeru turned up his adorableness. "Sorry, Mike," Shiranui apologised. He felt bad for forgetting one of the things he was taught in his Ninjutsu training; and it hadn't been the first time he did so in his journey in Alola.
"Jen suffers a mental condition called pyrophobia and the flame on Smaug's tail triggered her fear," Saisei explained to Shiranui. Shiranui nodded in understanding and started doing his kuji-in technique to help get his mind and emotions back into focus.
