Medicham would shift Terra into piggyback mode as soon as possible. They reach the tree, Lapis just a little behind Medicham. Medicham respectfully puts Terra down now.

Medicham immediately goes over to Gallade. Gallade senses hostility, and for a moment it looks like the two will fight. But when Terra introduces them, Medicham quickly leaps into the tree and peers down at Gallade more curiously. They seem to be passing emotions back and forth with each other. Both have their eyes narrowed. Then, strangely, Medicham plucks a dried Deyo flower from within his hat/head and hands it to Gallade. Gallade accepts it with a courteous bow, but his eyes are VERY narrow. The gesture apparently means something to these two Pokemon. Lapis is awaiting an order to get between them.

Medicham does seem to recognize the necklace, and probably understands the meditation style, but it doesn't seem to be a belief you and Medicham have precisely in common. However, Medicham seems a lot more comfortable with Nathan than with Gallade now!

Shiva joins the group a little later. Medicham gives a wave, but before Shiva can wave back Gothitelle has appeared from her Pokeball. It all begins again: the two Psychics circling each other, exchanging suspicious glances, and then the handing over of a Deyo flower. Again, Gothitelle understands more from the gesture than her trainer. This time, Shiva is empathetic enough to understand something of what is going on. To Medicham, how a Pokemon responds to the Deyo flower tells him something important about the Pokemon's plans or alignment or something like that. Gothitelle and Gallade both seem to know a little too much about the Deyo flower for Medicham's taste - Shiva's best guess is that the Psychics might have counter-purposes to Medicham!
