"Goodness me! You should use the video phone to call the Cress City police emergency line. Just verbally tell the computer you need to make an emergency call and you'll be connected. Are the two of you wounded? I can run your Pokemon through a checkup and through the Healing Machine while you call."

Assuming you or she make the call:

"Hello, this is Corporal Furrow, Cress City police department. What's your emergency? An attack on Route 13? I'll mobilize the patrolling officers and Rangers, as well as a unit from Teazel Valley and Cress City. Please give me the exact location to pass along."

He sounds a lot more professional and ready than the officer you are used to in tiny Trillium Town, Corporal Wake. 

He has a couple questions for you.

"What Pokemon were harmed? How many human wounded? What Pokemon were used in the crime? We take crimes committed with a Pokemon very seriously. Do you have descriptions of any of the people involved, either the victims or the perpetrators? Any other clues you can give us?"

"We're fine, Nurse, same for our pokemon.  Gallade was on the receiving end of a Lethal Crunch, but it didn't seem to do any major damage.  I don't know if the kidnapped trainers' pokemon are fine, though..."

"...an Arcanine belonging to Detective Thrawn was one of them.  There was also a Fearow, two Sandslash, and a Nidoqueen belonging to some other trainers, all 8 of whom got kidnapped.  There was the P.I., three biker girls named Freddi; Bobbi; and Taylor who had a Fearow; Nidoqueen; and a Vigoroth between them, a guy camper named Ballin who owned one of the Sandslash, a girl camper named Jill who owned the other Sandslash, a larger woman named Flora who had a Purugly, and a Ruin Maniac named Elminster.  Those pokemon I listed besides the Vigoroth were Confused or something and wouldn't follow their trainers' orders.  Our assailants were all wearing hooded robes and gauntlets.  Their blue haired, purple eyed, female leader got away and is somewhere in the city, but the other 7 we faced were all KOed or incapacitated during the struggle and are still at the scene of the battle.  None of our assailants used any of their own pokemon.  I know it sounds hard to believe, but they attacked us themselves with those gauntlets, and all my travelling companions and those involved in the battle would be able to confirm that.  The attackers seem to be related to the recent incident at the Skull Ruins, which is what Detective Thrawn was asking us about when we were attacked.  I think the attackers were trying to make sure we stayed quiet about what happened."

"Our friends are guarding the aftermath of the battle and making sure nothing happens to everyone who was KOed.  A big, very strong, and tall guy with probably his Hariyama or Milotic out or one of his other big, strong pokemon out.  A trainer with his hair in a ponytail that trains a lot of Ghost types and also has a full beard and mustache.  A young woman who probably has her Cottonee and maybe a large Glaceon present."

"...I...also think I have something I can use to track their leader down.  She mentioned Cress City as she was making her getaway, and I think she's somewhere on the west side of it.  Gallade and I Teleported to the Eastern Center because we're more familiar with that area than the Western side.  I, uh...have an item that I think can help me track the assailants' leader down quickly, but she might have backup, and she's likely in the city itself, so I'm hesitant to do anything about it without proper precautions.  I'm not sure how much she'll have recovered by the time I can find her, either.  I'm not sure if she's gone to where the kidnappers took the other trainers or not, but I'd prefer if she didn't get away entirely, and she definitely mentioned getting backup and returning to finish the job she started."

Basically, yeah, Nathan has a lot of descriptions and 'clues' he can give the officer.  And hopefully the cops can help Nathan and Heart do something about Juni hiding in the city and help with finding Thrawn and company as well...
