Shadow Triad: Difference between revisions

The Shadow Triad are first seen reporting to [[Ghetsis]] after observing [[N]]'s battle with {{adv|Black}} in [[Accumula Town]]. They are later stationed in a {{wp|humvee}}, spying on the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone}} via {{p|Roggenrola}}, {{p|Woobat}}, and {{p|Tympole}} camera-bots, since the stone is under [[Clay]]'s protection as a favor to [[Lenora]].

While the other Gym Leaders are in [[Mistralton City]] discussing what to do with Team Plasma, the Shadow Triad attack Lenora and Hawes while they were about to leave in an attempt to get the Dark Stone. They have the advantage at first, but Lenora is later joined by her fellow Gym Leaders after arriving on a plane. The Triad split up to fight the Gym Leaders in pairs, allowing an easier battle. The battle goes on with no clear victor until the Triad reveals their trump card, the [[legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Thundurus}}, {{p|Tornadus}}, and {{p|Landorus}}. With the power of the three Pokémon, the Triad trap the Gym Leaders in a swirling vortex of wind and electricity.

Later, the trio attempt to capture the legendary Pokémon {{p|Cobalion}}, {{p|Terrakion}}, and {{p|Virizion}}. The Pokémon prove to be too powerful for them to capture, so they are forced to retreat. At the [[P2 Laboratory]], they test out the power of Team Plasma's newest {{p|Genesect|creation}}. Soon after, they are ambushed by the Striaton Gym Leaders, [[Cilan]], [[Cress]], and [[Chili]], who had followed them after the incident at Nacrene City. The Triad easily overpower the triplets and mock them by stating that the three need to manage one Gym together. Backed into a corner, the Striaton triplets use [[Evolutionary stone|stones]] to evolve their Pokémon and gain the upper hand. The legendary Pokémon that despise humans, Cobalion, Virizion, Terrakion, and their student, {{p|Keldeo}} watch the pairs of three battle each other.
