"That would mean that I would only use Ashika to defeat whatever Totem is near the Ruins of Conflict since she was my first partner in Alola," replied Shiranui, "Given the Totem is nocturnal, we'd likely face a Dark type and according to my Pokédex, only two logical choices result from this line of logic."  He opened his Pokédex and accessed the entries of the two possible Pokémon.

"[i]Raticate: Alola Form, the Mouse Pokémon.  Its disposition is far more violent than its looks would suggest.  Don’t let your hand get too close to its face, as it could bite your hand clean off.[/i]"

"[i]Persian: Alola Form, the Classy Cat Pokémon.  It looks down on everyone other than itself.  Its preferred tactics are sucker punches and blindside attacks.[/i]"

"Assuming all Totem Pokémon have similar battle styles to the Gumshoos we faced earlier, I can deduce that this nocturnal Totem would be the local variant of Raticate."
