This chapter is a combination of filler and exposition. What this does is introduce us to two major characters:

The first one is Devon Harmon, a Salamence with hypnotic abilities and the main antagonist.

The second is Vladimir Myotischev, a Crobat that works as a security guard at a warehouse owned by a defense contractor.

----

Also, this introduces Nightfall Arsenals Limited, a defense contractor that Vladimir works for, as well as some of their technology, which can be summed up by the following:

Shock Rifle: Essentially a Taser on steroids and without the wires; this was developed as a safe method of nonlethal incapacitation, as not all pokemorhps can know those sort of moves naturally. On it's highest setting, it can be lethal.

Invisifilm: A film-like fabric that contours to the shape of the wearer's body. When given an electric charge, it bends the air around it through electromagnetism, rendering the wearer virtually invisible. by refracting light in a way that allows one to see what's behind the wearer relative to the observer. The battery only lasts 15 minutes, however.


----

Note: Harmon is capable of hypnosis in many ways, but the one that requires the least concentration on his part, and the most efficient, is to simply use his abilities to change one's memory in a way to make it seem like they swore loyalty to him by their own choice. As a result, most are unaware of what's even happening, and technically are not truly under hypnosis, just manipulation.
