: Greetings, warriors. Thank you for lending me your strength in this task. It would appear this monkey business is bigger than we were originally led to believe.
: Philani, your scouts have been the jungle, could you give everyone an idea of what it is we’re dealing with?
: Certainly.
: These trouble makers travel in groups of twenty Passimian. Altogether, we have seen enough Passimian to make two groups. Each group is accompanied by one another monkey-like ’mon - Chimchars, Primeapes, Darmantians, we’ve seen all sorts of monkeys with them.
: The accompanying monkey has always been seen giving orders to the Passimian.
: I see, so it would be wise to stop the other monkey and then let the Passimian fall into chaos.
: Those Passimian are always in a state of chaos. These other monkeys may give them orders, but the Passimian have never followed them perfectly.
: I cannot say all-knowingly if knocking out the other monkey will solve your problem, but it will cause a temporary skirmish over who takes power next.
: We can take advantage of that power struggle to separate members away from the group so that we no longer have to fear their Beat Up overpowering us.
: That would be a wise course of action, but be wary, even if you are just with one of them. These Passimiam are strong fighters even on their own, and they fight in their home grounds.
: Would fighting in the jungle be dangerous for us?
: It’s dangerous for both outsiders and locals, I am afraid, but far more for outsiders. None of you have the experience with traveling in the terrain of that jungle; you are at a serious disadvantage.
: Indeed, I imagine the Passimian would take to the trees, and either attack us from there, or use hit-and-run tactics.
: Worse still, I fear even the most skilled of you will not have the ability to run through the jungle with any hope of being faster than them. Even if they followed you on the ground, or you all took to the trees with them, the strange, irregular growth of the plants and trees in the jungle would slow you down, as well as take most of your focus to navigate.
: I see… do you have any suggestions on overcoming this?
: I would say that guile is your friend here: confuse the Passimian, do things they will not expect, and make them question their own actions so that they have less time to focus on yours.
: There are plenty of ways to do this, so I will not try to steer you towards one route over another, but I would advise that you not try this before you’ve separated Passimian from the group. Just as they are stronger together, they are also smarter together. 
: I believe that is all.
: Very well. A brief summary, everyone.
: You are to look for the monkey-like ‘mon in the group of Passimian and find a way to subdue them first. This should create a rift in the dynamic of the group, and start a power struggle.
: As that struggle is going, you are to lure a Passimian or two away from the group, and lead them out of the jungle towards where the traps are.
: We’re all at a disadvantage in the jungle terrain - out running these monkeys is likely not an option for us. Instead, we need to be clever to overcome the Passimian: distract them, throw things at them, reflect the light off of your weapons into their eyes, anything you can think of.
: It is the right of the plains tribes to have their justice on these Passimian and their leader, so we are to avoid doing any unnecessary harm to them. If you must fight in self-defense, do so, but I ask that you do no more.
: Our role in this is to lead them to the edge of the jungle, and then block their escape back into the jungle, should they not fall prey to the traps.
: Once you’ve reached the edge of the jungle, stop there and hold fast, and do not let any Passimian escape back inside.
: Ah, one last thing. The chief of the Isilanga tribe has requested that we give her an update at least one every hour. Although I do believe that Matteo will be ensuring these will be delivered, we cannot be too careful, and thus, if you are near the jungle’s edge, I ask that you yell your current actions loudly.
: Is there anything else, Philani?
: I also ask, as a personal request, that you avoid damaging the jungle itself.
: You do not share your chief’s desire to burn down the jungle?
: I do not. Though I had not suspected the death of inkosi’s brother as the result of this Oranguru’s work, I did feel from the beginning that burning down the jungle was the wrong way to avenge him, or to bring honour to Solgaleo.
: But this is something that can be discussed later. Right now, we need to focus on these Passimian, and their leader.
: Indeed.
: If everything was understood, and you are all ready, then we shall head off now.
Help Cecil lure the Passimian out of the jungle!
 There are two groups of Passimian, each group consisting of twenty Passimian and one other monkey-like pokemon.
 Possible other monkey-like pokemon are: Slakoth, Vigoroth, Slaking, Chimchar, Monferno, Infernape, Mankey, Primeape, Pansage, Simisage, Pansear, Simisear, Panpour, Simipour, Ambipom, Aipom, Darmanitan, and Darumaka.
 Try to knock out or get rid of the other monkey-like pokemon, otherwise they’ll just have all twenty Passimian use Beat Up on you - an average team of six pokemon will do 60-90 damage when one of them uses Beat Up, a team of twenty using Beat Up is going to be devastating regardless of your typing and armour, especially when every Passimian can use Beat Up right after one another.
 Getting rid of the other monkey-like pokemon leading the group will cause a distraction, but it will not stop them from attacking you, or get them to automatically follow you. You still need to have your wits about you.
 Due to the unfamiliar and difficult terrain, there are no straight paths in the jungle, and thus you will spend a lot of time and energy trying not to get hurt or fall over as you run. You’re not going to be able to out run/fly from the Passimian unless you can pass through objects.
 (Optional) Thembeka expects to get updates at least once an hour. If you come near the edge of jungle, start yelling some updates and hope she hears them.
 Your mission will end when your character reaches the edge of the jungle - they will do so before any traps are sprung.
