 	I wonder what sort of adventure awaits me!
Gardenia	There's ancient treasure hidden somewhere in the world!Don't you get excited just thinking about that?
Acerola 	Um...You do realize a lot of ancient treasures are possessed by ghost Pokémon, don't you?
Gardenia	Oh. Well, if I ever DO find any ancient treasure, Acerola, I think I'll give it to you...

Lear 	Attention, sync pairs!We're about to start our treasure-hunting event! The rules are simple!All you have to do is find the treasure I hid somewhere on or around this beach!The first sync pair to find the treasure wins!The winning pair will also receive a VERY generous reward from yours truly!Now then, off you go! Have fun hunting for treasure on Pasio!
(The crowd cheers) 	(The crowd cheers)
Gardenia 	Wow! A treasure hunt? How fun! This is gonna be great!
(Cut to later on the beach; Gardenia and Acerola are wearing their summer outfits)	(Cut to later on the beach; Gardenia and Acerola are wearing their summer outfits)
Gardenia 	All this talk about treasure, so close to the sea... It makes me feel like a pirate!
Acerola 	Ooh! You look raring to go!
Gardenia 	So do you, Acerola!But I'M the one who's gonna find that treasure!
(Gardenia runs off) 	(Gardenia runs off)
Acerola 	Wow, she's gone already...Hey, Lana, how are you gonna look for the treasure?
Lana 	I figured I'd fish on the beach and search the ocean for it with my Pokémon.
Acerola 	Oh, OK! Guess we'll be working separately, then!I think I'll search along the shore with Jellicent and Palossand.
Lana 	You and Jellicent seem to be getting along great.
Acerola 	Yeah! We've become really close!
Lana 	Heh heh... Looks like I was right to entrust you with Jellicent.Why don't we compete to see which of us can find the treasure first?
Acerola 	Sure—but I won't lose, you know!

Gardenia 	Treasure, huh...I'm sure it's something incredible if Lear prepared it...I'm curious about that "generous reward" he's promised the winners, too!At any rate, I've got to find the treasure before anyone else does!
(Gardenia looks around and spots something) 	(Gardenia looks around and spots something)
Gardenia 	Oh! I didn't know there was a cave over there!It looks awfully suspicious... My treasure sense is tingling!I need to search that cave before any other Trainers find it!
(Gardenia runs toward the cave and starts exploring it) 	(Gardenia runs toward the cave and starts exploring it)
Gardenia 	Oh, no...It's darker than I expected... I'm not going to run into any ghosts in here, am I?Oof... Just thinking about ghosts is freaking me out...

Gardenia 	Eep!What was that noise? Is someone there?

Acerola 	Whoa!
Gardenia 	Oh, it's just you, Acerola. Phew! You scared me...
Acerola 	You scared me speechless...I saw you go into this cave, Gardenia, so I followed you out of curiosity...I don't suppose you found the treasure already, did you?
Gardenia 	No, not yet. But I still haven't checked out the deeper parts of the cave yet.I kept hearing this creepy sound...
(The Pokémon cries out again) 	(The Pokémon cries out again)
Gardenia 	That one! Did you hear it?!I thought it might be a ghost...
Acerola 	You mean a ghost Pokémon? Then let's go check it out!Knowing Lear, he might have gotten a Pokémon to guard the treasure.
Gardenia 	Uhh... Well...
Acerola 	Are you scared?
Gardenia 	N-No way!As a Gym Leader, I couldn't possibly let you put yourself in danger...
Acerola 	I've got Jellicent with me, and Palossand is inside her Poké Ball, so I'll be OK!
(Jellicent cries out) 	(Jellicent cries out)
Acerola 	If you don't want to go any further, I can go on ahead!

Gardenia 	W-Wait, Acerola... You walk too fast!
Acerola 	No, you're just slow!Are you sure you're not scared of ghosts?
Gardenia 	O-Of course! I'm not the least bit scared!
Acerola 	Huh? You suuure?
Gardenia 	Sure I'm sure! Just watch me!
(The Pokémon cries out again) 	(The Pokémon cries out again)

Acerola 	It's Dhelmise!

Gardenia 	You mean those were just Pokémon cries all along? Thank goodness...I thought for sure it was a ghost...
Acerola 	Huh? But Dhelmise IS a ghost Pokémon!
Gardenia 	Huh? Really?!Still, though...I'm not sure why, but unlike other ghost Pokémon, it's not that scary to me...
Acerola 	That must be because Dhelmise is ALSO a Grass-type Pokémon!
Gardenia 	Oh, I see! If it's a Grass-type Pokémon, then even I...
(Gardenia takes a good look at Dhelmise) 	(Gardenia takes a good look at Dhelmise)
Gardenia 	A-actually, it is kinda scary...
Acerola 	Well, now we know what was making that noise, but I don't see any treasure here. Do you?
Gardenia 	No. So, what's Dhelmise doing here?I don't see a Trainer anywhere, and it doesn't seem like Lear put it here to guard the treasure...
Acerola 	Hmm... Maybe it's a wild Pokémon that got lost and somehow ended up on Pasio.I know, Gardenia! Why don't you become a sync pair with Dhelmise?
Gardenia 	Whaaa—?! Me?!
Acerola 	It's not a bad idea to have some Ghost-type Pokémon on your team!
Gardenia 	Me with a ghost Pokémon... Could I really become a sync pair with Dhelmise?

Acerola 	You didn't want Dhelmise as your partner?
Gardenia 	That's not it—I want to get to know Dhelmise better.It's just...I really do have hang-ups about ghosts...
(Gardenia is silent for a moment, then becomes determined) 	(Gardenia is silent for a moment, then becomes determined)

Gardenia 	Oh, of course! It must be in the sea!How do you think we could get Dhelmise to come out?
Acerola 	Easy! We go fishing!
Gardenia 	Huh?! Fishing?I mean, I understand the logic...but where are we going to get a fishing rod?

Gardenia 	Oh, Dhelmise!
Acerola 	I think Dhelmise was lonely because it didn't have any friends.But it was too scared to make the first move on its own, so it waited for someone to find it.
Gardenia 	I see... So you get scared just like me, huh?So, um, Dhelmise...If you like, would you become a sync pair with me?I'm still a little scared of ghost Pokémon...But I've got a feeling that you and I can get along!

Lear 	This sparkling golden statue is the very treasure I hid!
Acerola 	Oh, right... We fished that up along with Dhelmise, didn't we?
Steven 	Yeah. Seems like it got tangled up with Dhelmise.
Lear 	I've been observing your activities this entire time!And I have decided—the winners of this treasure hunt are Gardenia and Acerola!I take it there are no objections?
Acerola 	Are you sure it's OK?
Gardenia 	We were only able to fish up that treasure in the first place thanks to everyone's help...
Lana 	But you two were the first to find it.
Hilda 	All we did was help!More importantly, though—what about that "generous reward," Lear?!
Lear 	Heh heh... You've been curious about that, have you?The prize for this event is...this golden statue!

Acerola 	Yeah! Great idea!
Gardenia 	Steven, you can have that statue if you like.
Steven 	Huh? Are you sure?!
Gardenia 	Yes, of course! After all...we already found an even more precious treasure!
