Returning to earth, your jaw hits the ground at the sight of Boober and the Lore Miser locked together in a chokehold so searingly sultry it's literally spun a goddamn hurricane in the cathedral. By the looks of it, the cyclone won't last much longer, but it's given Shauna a moment of repose and that's what matters most. You'll have to reward Boober with a nice biscuit later for his unforeseen display of bravery.
"I think I'll go ahead and wait until that the dangerous tornado disperses before even trying to step close.."
Seeing as how Garakaw has his hands tied /b u r n i n g to death/, you figure that the next best thing to do is prepare by getting rid of his remaining flunkies to even the odds (and score your shit back from them too). Your friends arrive at the same conclusion, and as a matter of fact, so do the plague doctors.
Your party takes the initiative to follow Boober's example and take the mob of doctors by surprise. The mooks, though shocked, are able to retaliate in the same manner. One bright flash later, and the entire room has ditched their gloomy costumes to fight mano y mano.
As it turns out, the plague doctors are no less bad to the bone than their leader.
"Captain! Which one has our pokeballs?"
"E-Eh? How am /I/ supposed to know?!?!?!"
