The Director sat and listened to Rachel's story, though he continued to glance at Selene and Alex as Rachel spoke.  "I see.  Thank you, Rachel, and I'm sorry to hear about your brother.  I've heard rumors of those illegal pokeballs, but not much more than that.  Still, if I hear anything that might lead you to him, I'll keep you informed.  As for the Teams, though, I'd prefer if you don't get involved.  As a pokegirl Tamer, the public's eye is going to be focused on you.  I'd hate to have something unfortunate happen.  And if it's the bounty you're after, I'm sure I can pull a few strings and get you whatever funds you need."  Rachel could notice his glance shifting over to Selene a few times as he spoke, though he never said anything to the girl directly.<br/><br/>"Anyway, the main reason I asked you to come here is to reiterate a few of the rules.  This is the first time we've ever had a pokegirl tamer in the tournament, and a few of the officials are still hesitant about it.  The tournament rules are perfectly clear that a tamer can't directly interfere with a fight, aside from recalling a pokegirl that's unable to continue, so despite being a pokegirl yourself, you can't be entered into your own fight.  Unfortunately, some of the referees aren't very trusting of potential cheating.  We were able to develop this," he said, pulling a small box out from his desk and handing it to Rachel.  Inside was a metal necklace, with some sort of electronic device on it.  "That's a power limiter.  During a fight, you'll have to wear it; it'll keep you from using your special abilities.  After a fight, you're free to take it off again, of course."
