These Pokémon have rough dispositions and refuse to get along with anyone, which is a problem since rental Pokémon are often given to inexperienced Trainers. Since the [[Battle Factory]] also uses rental Pokémon, Sawyer hopes that the {{tc|Factory Head}}s will be able to win over these two ornery Pokémon. Thorton and Noland are eager to take on the challenge. Thorton wants to work with the {{p|Magnezone}}, so Noland agrees to partner with the {{p|Ninjask}}. | ||
A while later, Thorton, Noland, and Sawyer meet up with {{mas|Steven}} and {{mas|Cynthia}}, who are very impressed by how cooperative and powerful the rental Pokémon have become. Unfortunately, when they try to have Magnezone and Ninjask be used by novice Trainers, they are just as disobedient as before. Noland and Thorton realize that Ninjask and Magnezone won't listen to any Trainers besides them, and Thorton apologizes that they weren't able to live up to Sawyer's expectations. However, Sawyer says he's just glad to see them listen to any Trainers at all, and he asks Thorton and Noland if they'd be willing to take Magnezone and Ninjask as their partner Pokémon. The two Factory Heads are happy to oblige, as the two Pokémon will be much happier with them than as rental Pokémon. | |||
