"We can save looking at Meteor Falls for after the contest," added Shiranui.

The heroes exited the desert and started making their way west along Route 113, getting themselves covered in volcanic ash.

Shiranui nodded in agreement, knowing a Pidgeot carrying two people is like a Taillow carrying an Exeggutor.

"So which of these fossils are we after?" asked Shiranui, steering the conversation back on track.

"I'd wait until we're clear of the sandstorm if I were you," warned Shiranui, "Also be sure to avoid flying over Mt. Chimney." He was concerned about flying through hazardous weather and volcanic ash.

Shiranui searched his Pokédex and came up with the following results:

"Lileep, the Sea Lily Pokémon. Lileep became extinct approximately a hundred million years ago. This ancient Pokémon attaches itself to a rock on the seafloor and catches approaching prey using tentacles shaped like flower petals."

"Anorith, the Old Shrimp Pokémon. Anorith is said to be a type of Pokémon predecessor, with eight wings at the sides of its body. This Pokémon swam in the primordial sea by undulating these eight wings."

"All the fossils Liam and I found so far have been remnants of ancient Pokémon," answered Shiranui, "Every region we've been to has a place where these fossils can be restored to whatever they were; so logic would denote there's one here in Hoenn as well."

I like that outcome as it allows Liam to be the protagonist of the Delta arc.
