Reason: possible sign for Crobat

Summoning Entei

Ranger Signs (Japanese: レンジャーサイン Ranger Sign), also known as involiths or emblems are featured in Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs. They allow players to draw symbols on the ground with their Capture Styler to summon Pokémon, such as the legendary beasts and the Eon duo.

In the games

Ranger Signs can be obtained by capturing legendary Pokémon, completing quests, or manually entering special signs into the Styler via the Sign List. The player can only start to use them when Nema 'illegally' modifies the player's Capture Styler.

Storyline

Some Ranger Signs are obtained as players continue through the story. They are needed in order to complete the game. Except Ho-Oh, Lugia, and the Legendary birds, all of these Pokémon can be ridden. They also have additional capabilities only shown when the Capture Styler is charged when summoning them. Latias is only obtained if the player has chosen to play as the female character. Latios is present if the male character is chosen. The Involiths of Raikou, Entei, and Suicune are stolen by the Pokémon Pinchers to gain access to Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. The hero regains the stolen part of the Involiths later in a side quest for Weber, and reattaches the stolen parts to the Involiths.

To unlock them, they need to be input into the Styler's sign list manually by selecting the question mark icon at the end of the list and drawing the sign when prompted. However, the player must have recorded the Pokémon's data on their browser before the sign can be registered. They are revealed through various means, such as by official sites and magazines.
