In panel 1, an Alolan Persian falls over, fainted and Ned, with a minccino on his shoulder shouts, “Claudius!” Panel 2, closes up on Ned glancing at minccino as he raises a pokeball. “I can’t send you out… better send out that weird Stantler I caught by the dumpster.” Panel 3, the ball is thrown as Ned yells, “GO GLADYS” and opens to reveal a weird stantler an Arceus. Cut to panel 4, Duck looking distressed as he says a flat, “What.” Panel 5, Duck has crossed over to Ned with Arceus floating looking at them and tells him, “That’s an Arceus fer fuck’s sake Ned!” Ned (and his minccino) look amused as he replies, “Duck, don’t tell me you actually believe in those legends?” Duck asks, “What Stantler floats?!” Ned: “An Alolan one!” Panel 6, Gladys the Arceus rumbles out a, “Staaaaaaaaaantlerrrrr”. Duck points at it and says, “You’re not helping! What are you getting out of this?!” End description
