"Don't worry, we've got this." Chuck said, nodding to Hibiki. She channeled all her strength into a massive Icy Giga Impact.

"Hibiki, get out of there and counter attack!" Chuck called out. She lept back out of the range of the pheromones and dropped icicles on top of her with Icicle Crash, one of her new moves.

Hibiki tilted her head at the comment before vanishing with an icy Quick Attack, followed by a Close Combat.

Immediately before the battle started, Gileta ran up and hugged Hibiki, nuzzlimg her cheek softly as her way if saying she missed her and is really glad to see her again despite the changes she had gone though, though she also made sure to check Hibiki over to ensure she was wearing the flower necklace before getting into battle pose, her tail swishing behind her as she would let Hibiki make the first move.

Before, Hibiki would have gladly hugged Gileta back, but this new Hibiki was more of an Ice Queen, gently patting Gileta's shoulder awkwardly as she was hugged. Once that was over, her and Chuck got to the other end of the battlefield and prepped themselves. Chuck and Hibiki wasted no time as Chuck activated his keystone, causing Hibiki to Mega Evolve into her new Mega form, and then dashing toward Gileta to deal out an ice-powered Mega Kick.

Chuck nodded and sent out Hibiki. As he had said, the lighter parts of her fur were now a light blue, and there was a chilly aura around her.

"Yes please Jen." he said, as he grabbed the Pokeball. "Lead the way Selina."

"While I was staying with my parents on the Sevii Islands, Hibiki contracted the Pokerus virus. She's since made a full recovery, however it seems the virus had an adverse reaction to the genetic modifications, causing a mutation to occur. She's now taken on a bluish tint to some of her fur, and appears to have changed typing from Normal to Ice." Chuck explained. "Her personality seems to have shifted a bit too, to fit her new typing."

Chuck blushed a bit at Bianca's comment about falling in love, but managed to compose himself. "About that, there's something I need to tell you about Hibiki." he said.

As Chuck left the train station, he could see the airport nearby and noticed Selina and another woman. "Hey Selina!" he said, taking a seat with them, acting casual. "I didn't know you were coming to Galar!" Under his breath he said to her "Find anything out for us?"

Yeah, Chuck is travelling separately, since he's heading there from the Sevii Islands.
