As Silver demands Petrel turn over his Plates, Petrel realizes that Silver really will kill him if he doesn't comply. Petrel tells him that there are 16 Plates. Before Silver can learn what the Plates are and why Team Rocket wants them, a Safari ranger interrupts and expels them on grounds of a rule violation: no battles in the Safari Zone. Petrel immediately disguises himself as Baoba, making it appear that Silver was threatening the life of the ranger's employer. "Baoba" easily extricates himself from Silver's shocked Weavile's grip and sends away the ranger, claiming they're playing a game.
