"We're going to repeat it once again: your role is advisory only. You are not employed to stick your neck out for us. You see, we aren't just some harmless old couple. In a past life, we both worked in law enforcement. The details, I won't bore you with. But suffice it to say, this Daycare will sometimes serve more purposes than just taking care of Pokemon while their trainers run about the world."

Her mannerisms change a bit.

"We have a secret mission: get a Pokemon into the hands of a hostile organization called The Almanac. We figure they are a front for something more sinister, but ostensibly they run a competitor to the Pokedex. So we need to breed a Pokemon that can infiltrate their base as a gift, a sort of sleeper agent. It will be dangerous for the Pokemon, so we need a creature that's tough, sneaky, but desirable to an evil organization. He or she will be trained from birth, and bred specifically for this purpose."

"So...I know this is a lot to ask, and it won't affect your paycheck if you refuse, but do you have any suggestions?"

That serious tone in her voice... Shiva could literally snatch in the air how important this matter was. Important for them, as well as important itself. But... They entrust her with a secret mission. They must have some sort of trust in her, maybe seeing some potential in her. Someone outside your familiy values you. You're useful.

Also, it's a unique chance. And... why should she decline... It serves the greater good. 'The Almanac'... She heard this name once before. Was it Professor Mallorn who mentioned them? Weren't they those that had something to do with Nathan's dear Ralts...? Most likely yes.

Too bad she is not allowed to ask him about it.

She hesitated a little before answering. "No, it's fine... I appreciate that you lay so much faith in me to entrust me with the matters. Therefor, thank you." ... "I'll see which species might be suitable for such a job. Just... give me a day. It's not a light decision, and success depends on the choice, so I might ask some books before that."
