TJ, diye, and the Black Rayquaza. Pt II

diye stepped of the boat onto the dock of Lilycove city. diye was born and raised in Hoenn, and had been to Lilycove city previously during her adventures, but she found herself quietly impressed every time she went. The ocean, the culture, the scenery. The city was beautiful. diye breathed in a breath of the salty sea air and sighed.
"Right. The Cove Lily Motel." she said to herself.

She walked through the city, passing with a large department store, a museum, and finally, the motel, where she was to stay while in Hoenn. She walked into the building and up to the counter of the motel, but there was no one at the counter, though she could hear an indiscernible noise in the back room. She dinged the bell. A voice came from the back room, "Oh, right, sorry!"
A click, the noise stopped, and diye realised it was a television. A man rushed to the counter from the back room.
"Hello! Welcome to the Cove Lily Motel! Would you like a room?" the man asked.
"Yes, please. I'll be here for one week." replied diye.
"Ah, okay!" The man said, "and what brings you to Lilycove? Wait, let me guess... A pretty girl like you? You must be here to do some shopping at the department store! Or maybe you're going to enter a Pokémon contest?" The man said.
"Nope and nope." diye said, a little bit annoyed. She was instructed to not talk to too many people about her mission, but she decided to make an exception, "I've come from Kanto to Hoenn to capture an extremely rare and powerful Pokémon for official research. It's said to be one of the mythological Pokémon that helped form Hoenn, stopping the war between the Pokémon of the land and the Pokémon of the sea. However, this particular specimen is even rarer than that, as it's said to be as dark as the blackest stormcloud. Now, do you have any vacancies?"

diye entered her room after the man sheepishly led her to it.
"Um... and if you need anything at all, don't hesitate to phone the front desk miss-- pardon me. ma'am." The man said and slunk down the hall.
diye closed the door and chuckled to herself. She loved destroying people's perceptions of her if she had been underestimated. She put her bags down and pulled the three Pokéballs off of the pouch on her belt. She didn't carry many of her Pokémon with her, but only because she didn't have to. She has been known to say, "I don't lose battles."
She laid down on the bed for a moment, tired.
"Ugh. I hate long boat rides." she said to herself. Picking up her three Pokéballs, she held them close to her face. "Alright, guys. We can do this. It will be hard, but we've faced worst... I think."

diye put the Pokéballs back in the pouch on her belt and went to the phone in her room. She dialed a number, and it began to ring. The screen turned on, and TJ appeared on the screen.

"Hello? Oh, diye, it's you! You got to Lilycove safe and sound, I see. Was the boat ride alright? Were there any complications on getting settled in?" TJ asked.

"No, nothing I couldn't handle," she said, thinking back to the embarrassed and belittled motel manager.

"Good, that's good. Are you all set and ready to go for tomorrow? That's when you have to be at Sky Pillar, you know." TJ said.

"Yes, I know. I have the information commited to memory as well as the notes you gave me. I'll be just fine." diye said.

"Good, good! I'm sure you'll do just fine, then. You've always been more than capable at everything. Of course, this may be the hardest battle you've ever had. This isn't like catching any other Pokémon, this is much more than that. You've got a big day tomorrow. One that will baffle the other Pokémon professors! And you'll be interviewed by all sorts of magazines about the event, if this goes correctly!" TJ said, clearly excited about what was to come.

"I don't care about publicity or fame. I just want to catch this thing, and for you to study it. I'm doing this for science." diye said calmly.

"Good. That's why you're better than other trainers, diye. You know what really matters. You do everything for all the right reasons. You're going to do great tomorrow."

"Thank you. Wish me luck. I won't let you down. Goodbye, Professor."

"Goodbye, diye."

diye hung up the phone and got into bed. "The hardest battle I've ever had? I hope everything goes well tomorrow." she said nervously.

Back at TJ's Pokémon lab in Kanto, he hung up the phone. A Xatu stood several feet behind his chair. He turned and looked it in the eyes. "You're still certain?" He said towards the Xatu.
It remained motionless.
"Good," he said, "I believe so, too."
