Before too long, the heroes had climbed the cliffs. Liam heard what sounded like digging sounds ahead and figured it was that pair of researchers: Cara Liss and Bray Zenn he had heard about that created the mix-matched Pokemon he had heard about. However, what he found was Billie and Kidd in Archeologist uniforms emblazoned with a capital red "R". They had: a pair of Rhyperior, a Kantonian Sandslash, and an Excadrill,  ransacking the area by digging many holes.
"What are you doing!?" Liam called out to them. "That many holes, you're make the ground unstable."
 "It's the Dragon runt and his posse." Billie growled annoyed. "Rhyperior, Rock Blast!"
"Beckham, Double Kick! Duraladon, Dragon Pulse!" Liam sent out the two Pokemon, who deflected the attacks back at them. Kidd smirked as he pushed a button on a remote he had. a Pink energy shield spawned in front of the Rockets.
 Billie sneered as she explained this was an experiental shield crafted by Dr. Nannab. He isolated the gene in Fairy-Types that granted them immunity to Dragon-Types and was able to create a shield with similar properties. 
A Rotomphone that was a deep purple in color began to chirp. It floated up next to Billie and picked up the call. While the phone wasn't on speaker, the other line was so loud that they might as well have been. "IT'S 'NAMBA'!" The caller hung up right after shouting that sentence.

The Rockets only missed a beat from the random angry call. Billie remembered what she was about to say before the call and jumped back too it. She chuckled pointing at Liam's Z Power Ring. "Your precious Devestating Drake won't work this time." She then pulled down on her right eye as she stuck her tounge out at Liam. The Rocket duo was so busy cackling that they didn't notice Liam eject the Dragnium Z and slot in a different Z Crystal.
 "Let's go Duraladon!" Liam said as he started striking poses. It wasn't until Liam was striking the final pose that Billie noticed Liam wasn't doing the poses the expected.
 "Use Corkscrew Crash!" Durladon charged forward, slicing through the Fairy-like barrier and sent the Rockets with their Pokemon flying. As the flew off, they dropped a complete set of the Galar fossil pieces, which Between Liam and his two Pokemon who just fought off the Rockets, all four of the fossils were saved from being smashed on the ground.
