Zain: You decide that your art work would have to wait, what with the urgency of the situation. It must take something damn impressive to spook a herd from the Rhy family, and you ask your trusty Pokedex just what kind of natural predators there are that could do such a thing.
The Rhyhorn family does not have many natural predators. Dexter begins authoritively, the words spoken clearly and in a digitised but crisp voice, With many holding the Lightningrod ability, the Rhyhorn family are not only immune to electrical attacks but actively draw them away from allies, and the strong hides of their evolved forms make them resistant to fire-type moves. Furthermore, Rhydon are capable of surfing through water, in spite of their weakness to their typing. Although some of the young in their family are more easily spooked, the Rhy family are powerful, and can cause a lot of damage when thrown into a rage or stampede.
Well, that was that then. They could have been scared by anything out of the corner of their eye, or you could have been walking towards some sort of horrendous monstrosity, given how few things could naturally prove a threat to a horde of these beasts. It's on the way said monstrosity that you and Lucifer spot what looks to be a woman crumpled on the ground, her clothes torn covered in both dirt and fresh blood – a lot of it. She's sobbing, and the closer you get the more that you can see that she looks like she's been dragged through a hedge maze, backwards. At the sound of your footsteps, she tearfully looks up. At first, it's in fear, but then she seems utterly relieved.
“Oh, thank god... A trainer...” Although, when the woman sees Lucifer properly, her expression falters. It seems like she's unsure what to think of the Absol and what its omen represents, but she has no choice but to appeal to you anyway. “Please, sir-- you have to help me! I come from a small village out west of here, we're like an outpost, really-- a group of people from my village and some travellers, they were out on a trek, and they've been kidnapped! By monsters, they were absolute monsters, please! You have to go, or they're all going to die! If nobody helps them, they're all going to die! Please, you and your Pokemon, they have to do something! Someone has to do something...”
The woman breaks down again, curling into herself in floods of tears. It looks like you've discovered something, that's for damn sure. A literal monster, a boogeyman, some heinous human being? Well, you're either going to find out, or you're going to walk your smart arse some other direction. What do you do?
