Josh didn't get an answer from the Pokemon in the shadows. Then again, he didn't expect one. They wanted to stay hidden, for some reason. Josh couldn't tell why, but since they were clearly on the same side, he didn't really mind. The mystery Pokemon used Peck on one of the Dratini. Josh was able to see an orange beak for a moment before the Pokemon disappeared back into the shadows. A bird Pokemon that knows Peck and Pursuit...could it have been the Murkrow they saw earlier? It made sense.
Anthony managed to knock out the Goomy, leaving only the two Dratini. They both aimed for Hex, giving Josh the opportunity to use Acid on one of them. Matt used Light Screen, creating a second barrier around the team.
