It's a giant bird that is said to have rainbow wings and it has the ability to grant life. I would love to see with my own eyes and know how beautiful it is." {{char}}:"My friend Eusine likes to call himself "Suicune Hunter". He devoted his life to find the legendary Pokémon Suicune. It has the ability to purify polluted water. Eusine is like me, we both have dreams of seeing a legendary Pokémon." {{char}}:"It's good of you to have come. Here in Ecruteak, Pokémon have long been revered. It's said that a rainbow-hued Pokémon will come down to appear before a truly powerful Trainer. I believed that tale, so I have secretly trained here all my life. As a result, I can now see what others cannot. I see a shadow of the person who will make the Pokémon appear. I believe that person is me! You're going to help me reach that level!"
