Robert heard the explosion as well the powerful noise it emitted when it was set off. Making Petilil to let out a small cry of fright. Hugging more into Robert's chest as the boy knelt down onto the ground with his arms holding the grass type tightly against him. He wasn't sure what is going on, or why there was a explosion...but is that what the person in the trench coat meant when he told Robert to run? To get away from something like that, so he wouldn't get harm? Well...he hopes that whoever it was, were alright along with any wild Pokemon who might've gotten hurt from the said explosion...

Oak nodded his head and said his farewell too the boy. As he shook his head with a small chuckle, and began moving some things around in his lab. Only to quickly grabbed onto the side of his labs walls. From hearing what sounded like an eruption or a explosion outside, that it cause the old man to quickly dart on over towards one of his windows. Peaking outside from it and then guarded his eyes. From the massive flash of light...after the light vanish and seeing what appears to be smoke. It raised alarms in Oaks head that something...and not even an hour into the children adventures. Something terrible has happened...But whats worst? Robert and Leaf were probably already in the route when this happens "I have inform officer jenny!"
