Jen check on her stuff as she is set for the trip as she is worried anything could happen as she pets Aura.

Before the group left, there was be a sudden surge of aura passing though the ground and a voice would whisper into Jen and Aura ears "I see, you are one of us or at least our princesses recognise you. Though they also recognise the others". The voice then changed to a male voice, first directed to Jen, then to Aura, then to both once more "You are the apprentice of Mike-San, our tribe most loyal friend and you are the daughter of Princess Cammy, my sister. We await you above the dojo, in the caves. The others are free to follow, if Mike trust them, then we don't doubt his judgement". The voice would then vanish along with the aura surge.

[Alisdragon911]

Jen and Aura felt a powerful surge of aura and heard voices of a King Lucario and his mate. “We can’t leave the isle just yet, I just received a message from the Lucario and they invited all of us to their home.” Jen told Liam and Shiranui to her they had to be like a ninja to get to the Luxario’s home.

"Well, we should see what they have to say then, I guess,"

[James Davy]

"Sounds like a plan," Shiranui added.

Jen could tell they are ready to go and lead them to the Dojo. Jen and Aura sense the powerful aura barrier to keep anyone from entering the cave. Aura is curious to meet Mai’s mate and some of the members of the Lucario trib.

[Mike Dracopyra]

Aura would not have long to wait as Ryu greeted them at the cave mouth, before leading them down the winding paths to the Elder home, though understandly the other Lucario were a little on edge about humans being here once more after their encounter with Nobunaga a long time ago, but they trusted there Elder and Ryu.

However, they bowed to an older Lucario who's stood up from his seat, Ryu followed suite as did Mei and Cammy when they joined the group. "Greeting honored guests, though we are weary of humans after what happened 50 years ago. A daughter of our tribe believes strongly in you, and I can't say no to my older sisters" He said with a chuckle looking at Cammy. "I am the Elder of this tribe, Mike has mentioned your names but I would like you to introduce yourselves as you can gauge a lot from someone by how they introduce themselves"

[bowtiesrcool86]

"I am Liam Coleman of Blackthorn City," Liam said with a respectful bow.

[Alisdragon911]

“My name is Jen Lkaika and my Lucario Aura,” Jen said ax she and Aura boe back to all the Lucario.

[James Davy]

"Shiranui Tsukiko of Ecruteak City," Shiranui introduced.

[Mike Dracopyra]

The Elder was silent as he listained to them introduced themselves, the other Lucario's also listained, though they bowed back to Jen and Aura. Since she was Mike apprentice, in there eyes, she had less to prove to them as Mike already trusted her enough to be his apprentice.

"Thank you" The Elder said. "Although we do sense some darkness in your hearts, the aura tells us what kind of people you truly are" He said. "Now, we are aware that you seek the Auravellas Flower to help cure your friends rage as well as the future members you may obtained. I am aware one of your team is missing as well, normally we would ask Kubfu/Urishifu as well but since your missing member has him, we are doing things a little unorthodox"

[James Davy]

"Yeah, we don't know why Chuck up and left us either," Shiranui added, understanding the elder Lucario's comments about darkness in the heroes' hearts. He knew the martial art he trained in had a dark history and dark undertones.

[Alisdragon911]

“Yes, we want to help the Pokémon that needs help,” Jen said as Jen and Aura know that everyone have darkness in their hearts but they are not bad person.

Liam had been hearing about his "inner darkness" quite a bit since arriving in Galar. On one hand it he was starting to get annoyed with it, but on the other hand he was thinking that might actually be proving those people's point.

Liam feeling about it were clear to the Lucario, but since Nigal/Nobunaga had taken such an interest in the young Dragon master, mostly due to the fact, he had pegged him as a hero descendent which would give him a chance to meet Arceus, it was just them being cautious.

The Elder nodded, "However, Mike-San seems to have faith in you all, and he choose the people he trust carefully, with Jen being his apprentice, something we never believed he would find someone like that. Tells us, we can trust our tribes secrets with you, though some do disagree and wish to test you themselves" He said as four Lucario stood up, clearly the most powerful of the tribe beneath the Eldwr and Mei/Cammy, though one sat back down due to there only being three of them.

It was one male and two females, all absolutely pulsing with Aura power. "As is our tradition, the three who disagree will battle you to gauge your ablities and heart themselves. Defeat them in honorable battle, and they will step aside. You may use one pokemon in battle, the arena is just below us" The Elder told them before showing them the way.

The arena was definitely large, probably rivaled the gym stadiums themselves. One of the female would challenge Jen and Aura, after all, Lucario vs Lucario could go, in ether way. The strongest of the three, the other female would challenge Liam and the sole Male would challenge Shinranui.

(So this battles are player controlled since there NPC, each would have a Lucario movement at Lv 50 non competitive. There stats would be maxed out, I'll leave the battles to you guys so we don't end up making the battles last longer then they need to)

"I choose for our battle: Ikari the Shelgon!" Shiranui opened an Ultra Ball and from it emerged a shiny Shelgon, her celadon carapace letting off some sparkles. "If I know my Lucario, they are good at dishing out big hits and they're not as good as taking hits and I have a feeling this guy will battle as if he had a human trainer," he mused, seeing Lucario charge up an Aura Sphere. "Ikari, start with Protect!" Lucario fired his Aura Sphere and Ikari conjured a green shield that blocked the attack. As the shield disappeared, Ikari started to glow with a bright white light. Out of the front and back of her body a draconic head and tail emerged respectively and from her back the wings she coveted all her life grew out of her back. When the glow subsided a pale green Salamence stood with her orange wings unfurled in display. Shiranui quickly scanned Ikari's new form. "Salamence, the Dragon Pokémon. A Dragon and Flying type and the evolved form of Shelgon. While basking in the joy of flight generally keeps this Pokémon in high spirits, Salamence turns into an uncontrollable menace if something angers it."

"Ikari, use Fire Fang!" Lucario started charging as Ikari took to the air. As the Salamence swooped in with her jaws ablaze, Lucario wound up for a punch with his fist glowing brightly. Shiranui identified Lucario's attack as a Meteor Mash as the attacks connected. Both Pokémon took major damage and Shiranui noticed singed fur where Ikari's Fire Fang connected, indicating the Lucario was burned from the attack. "Wait for it," Shiranui commanded after seeing Lucario charge up another Aura Sphere. When Lucario launched it, Shiranui shouted, "今!" Ikari gained altitude as she started a Fly attack, causing the Aura Sphere to miss. Lucario dodged Ikari's swoop at the last second, having used Detect. "Ikari, Attract!" The Salamence stood proud with her wings open in a display of courtship and Lucario fell in love with the latter so infatuated from the display he didn't use an attack. "Now, finish him off with a Flamethrower!" Ikari breathed out an intense flame that inundated Lucario. Lucario put his paws together and gave Shiranui a bow before fainting.

Shiranui used a Revive to restore Lucario's consciousness and left some Sitrus Berries and a Rawst Berry for Lucario to eat. "These berries will get you fighting fit again in no time," Shiranui stated, recalling his jubilant Salamence.

Liam took the place next. He readied a Luxury Ball. "Beckham! It's time to shine!" The Cinderace emerged and landed on the battlefield. Liam felt it was best if he did this without anything special, like Z moves or Gigantamax, he didn't even check the Dynamax Band to see if he could use it here.

"Beckham, use Pyro Ball!" Liam called. Beckhame kicked a small rock around until it became engulfed in flames. He then did a backflip kick to send the ball of fire to the Lucario.
Lucario used Bone Rush to form a giant bone and used it as a baseball bat to send the ball of fire flying.
"Impressive," Liam said. "Beckham, Agility!" Beckham began to dart around the battlefield. Lucario used Aura Sphere and clipped Beckham as he darted around. Beckham stumbled to the floor.
"You OK, Beckham?" Liam asked.
"Cin!" Beckham replied giving a thumb's up.
"Alright, Flame Charge!" Beckham charged into Lucario and tackled her. between STAB and weakness, it did a considerable amount of damage and raised Beckham's Speed.
Lucario used Force Palm and scored a critical hit.
Beckham began to glow with a red aura to signal that Blaze activated. "Now, Pyro Ball again!" Liam called. Beckham did his signature move again and knocked the Lucario out. Beckham hurried over and caught her as she started to fall and gently laid her down on the floor. Liam walked over and used a Max Revive on the Lucario.

[Alisdragon911]

Jen walked out on to the barrlerrtfield and before she could call our her Pokémon Aura her Lucario runs atthe female. They seem to be just running around but Jen could tell the two Lucario was seeing who was stronger. “Focuse Blast,” Jen said as Aura focus her mind on the female Lucario and released her power on the female Lucario. The female Lucario creates a bArrier before jt got shattered by Aura’s Focus Blast. The female Lucario took some damage as assured created a aura whip from the shattered aura barrier and hits Aura hard. Aura took on some damage, the female Lucario send a powerful blast at Aura.

Jen could see some gold sparkles in Aura’s powerful auraa wave against the female Lucario aura attack. Both Lucario were panting hard. The female Lucario told Aura let’s end this battle. Aura told the female Lucario that by gaining your respect is better than winning the battle. The female Lucario bowed as she was not surprised by that replied. Before Jen could give the female Lucario any berries she already left the arena. Jen praised Aura by giving her some berries.

With all three battle over, even the one left out repected the show of honor that Liam and Co had shown. The Elder looked around to see if anyone else wished to challenge but the battles had shown the truth. Instead the tribe would bow to them as the Elder said "We are glad to welcome you as honorary members and friends of the tribe, Liam, Shinranui and Jen". He too would bow as a sign of respect to them, though Cammy once again unable to contain her joy at her daughter prowess hugged her and Jen tightly.
