Seventeen protestors and twenty-eight Yungoos are currently recovering at the Pokemon Center due to what some are calling a mob riot after a group of protestors against Totem Gumshoo’s election formed a blockade to Verdant Cavern while wearing hats resembling Slowpoke Tails.

Trial Captain Ilima insists that the Yungoose attacks were in no way an infringment on Alolans’ freedom of speech, as Yungoos cannot read signs. He believes that the Yungoos attacked the protestors’ heads because they thought they could eat the Slowpoke Tails.

The Alolan Civil Liberties Union has sued. Local residents, weary of the long-running 2016 Totem Pokemon election, have complained that this is precisely what happens when the major party candidates are a weasel and a rat.
