Liam confronted one poacher who called out a Salamance.
 "Liam performed the Z-move using the Dragnium Z that Tapu Koko had given him.
 "Devastating Drake!" Liam called as the lavender colored energy took a draconic form and zoomed across the area, smacking into the Salamance, one shotting it. The Poacher recalled his KO'd dragon and, while confident that he had won this time around sent out a Mawhile.
 "Flamethrower!" Liam called. The fire attack from the Champion's Dragonite left the Mawhile with a bad burn. Mawhile used Ice Fang, only to be smacked away with Iron Tail. She went flying and landed near her trainer. A colony* of Pikachu dashed forward with electricity ready to fire. Liam called out for a Thunderbolt and Dragonite launched it in unison with the Pikachu. Mawhile received a bad shock and was KO'd. Liam called out Moony to help keep the poacher from escaping. He sent Robin to get Officer Jenny from a nearby town.
 "It's over," Liam said. "I was hoping I could relax while exploring Alola and not deal with scum like you. To commit such crimes and to use dragons to accomplish them? As a Dragon Master, I can't abide by such villainous actions."
