They went into a cafe, an empty one.
The man went ahead and pressed the door bell three times, then he waited for about 10 seconds before a female came out in the staff room, she was wearing the Team Rocket uniform.
"Captain, I brought them here." The man reported, he then stood aside.
"Limbo and Chimera," The female then stared at them both, until about 15 seconds has passed, before she continued, "I'm sure Jason already told you both we have an operation about to occur here."
"Victor, go get their uniforms." She ordered, the man nodding once before heading off inside the staff room.
"So, to the main topic." She said as the uniforms were being delivered.
"The operation will commence tomorrow, board St.Anne before 7am by tomorrow, you'll get further instructions by then."
"Understood." They replied.
As soon as the conversation was over, Victor returned with two bags, each with a big letter R on it. Which would be handed over to William and Alex.
The captain then went back into the staff room. She never revealed her name to them both.
"Anything to do in mind?" William asked, swinging his bag of uniform.
"No."
"Alright," He shrugged and left the shop.
After they went out, he turned over to Gardevoir.
"I have a few theories to test, mind helping?"
(Sure.)
But Gardevoir's eyes were drifting off towards Alex, who was behind them both.
William instantly knew what she meant.
"Don't bother about it, she's the same kind of person as we are."
Hearing William's answer, she shrugged.
(What is your theory?) Gardevoir changed to topic.
William gave a few hand signals, indicating Gardevoir to establish a telepathy link.
(It was just an excuse, what I wanted to discuss was instead our future.)
(What are your plans?)
(See, I don't exactly want to become a full time Team Rocket. That would mean we need a second identity in Team Rocket, or outside Team Rocket.)
(But are we going to stay in Team Rocket forever?)
William raised his head to stare at the sky for a brief moment.
(I'd say yes.)
(Why?)
(It's simple really.)
A smile crept over William's face, he then pointed at Gardevoir and himself.
(The thought of being Team Rocket is just interesting isn't it?)
Gardevoir thought about it for a second, a helpless smile then appeared on her face.
(I admit that.)
The moment that they joined Team Rocket, they knew that a lot of this world would be accessible to them, instead of what the league wanted them to know.
(So, back to topic, I plan on getting a mask, what about you?)
(I'll just take the other pill, it'll make me blue. People won't think about the non-shiny counterpart of me.)
(I think you also need another fighting style, just to be safer. And judging on working conditions, maybe try and focus on damaging skills when not working for Team Rocket and use more utility skills when working for them.)
(Alright then.)
After William bought his mask, a mask that's basically plain white with no mouth, the rest of the day was simple. William and Gardevoir went to a cafe in the pokemon centre, Alex went missing for an hour before reappearing, then joined them both.
In the cafe, everyone was doing their own thing. William was reading the newest research papers, Gardevoir was playing chess by her own, using a board created by psychic energy. Alex was jotting things on a notebook of hers while Gengar is riding on her shoulder watching her.
The scene was strangely normal, none of them interacted with each other, except for the fact that they sat at the same table.
This kind of daily lifestyle is exactly what happened all those days they were traveling.
And at night, they just went back to their rooms. In wait of sunrise.

The next day, they met at the harbour.
William was dressed as a gentleman with a suit. His messy hair combed straight and a polite smile across his face.
Gardevoir acted as his butler, holding a piece of cloth by her arm.
When Alex showed up, she was stunned by those two.
"You've got to be kidding me." That's her sentence as she walked up to those two.
Alex was just going with her usual set up, a beanie that covers up her entire forehead and hair, a scarf that covers up her face and makes her voice sound muffled. A loose t-shirt with long sleeves and a pair of long athletic pants.
"Well... I didn't have anything else better." William turned his head over to one side while Gardevoir was covering her mouth trying to cover the fact that she was laughing.
Alex sighed.
"I know you want to conceal your identity, but this is way over. Plus, have you thought about what to say if others wonder why you'd become a trainer in the future?"
William was sure he never told Alex anything about concealing his identity. Nevertheless, it wasn't hard to guess.
"What can I do then?"
Just as he was done asking, Alex threw him a bag of clothes.
"Wear these, they'd work better for that purpose."
"Thanks I guess."
William left with a suspicious face. He went to a public toilet by the harbour, and changed his clothes.
When he came back, the cloth Gardevour was holding was gone, and Alex nodded slightly she saw him.
This time, William looked like your average trainer Joe. The plain T-shirt with pants style, a cap and an electronic watch. The only thing that's strange is that none of these clothing's brands were known by William, and they were very comfortable, more than anything he had ever worn.
"Thanks for the clothes." William thanked her truly, he too had seen what effects this set of clothes brought him.
"You don't need to." Alex replied in her muffled voice, she then turned towards the only few ships within the Harbour.
"That one is St.Anne." William pointed towards a luxurious looking cruiser. He then glanced at his new watch.
"It's 6:35am now, let's board the ship."
