Sherlock gets his first call from Bella's father asking for interpretation of a Pokémon the following morning. Charlie is on the line, but a Geodude can be heard muttering to itself in the background.

He listens intently.
"I see," he murmurs. For Charlie's sake, he translates, "She says he was taller than her trainer, and wearing a long brown leather coat with white stitching and a black hat with a large floppy brim and a red ribbon around it." And to the Geodude, "Anything else?"

"I'm sorry to hear that," says Sherlock. To Charlie, he explains, "When the vandal realized she was not part of the statue he released a Wingull and she was more soundly defeated than she has been since - when was that previous battle, if you don't mind my asking?"

"Can she give us a time more constrained than 'between sunset and nine p.m.'? Did the Wingull have a nickname?"
"Dude," says the Geodude. "Duuuuuuuude."

"All right. This should be helpful. Thanks, the both of you."
"Are you done with Tiffany?" calls a girl's voice from the background.
"Dude?" agrees the Geodude, who is apparently called Tiffany.
"Think so. Sherlock?"

He hesitates.
Then, "Yes. Thank you, Tiffany. You've been very helpful. I'm sure the police will be able to find the fellow who spraypainted you."

"Dude!" says Tiffany.
"Thanks," Charlie tells Sherlock again. "You want to be kept updated on how it goes?"

Sherlock thinks for a few minutes.
And then he goes looking for Bella. The library seems a reasonable place to start.

"I had the most fascinating call from your father just now. He wanted me to interview a Geodude named Tiffany about some vandalism she witnessed, and during the conversation she made reference to having been defeated by a Shaymin before she was traded to her current owner."

"I didn't ask. I'm sure it wouldn't be difficult to talk to Tiffany again, and I didn't want to complicate matters with Charlie in case he is particularly skeptical of supposed legendary sightings."
