After calling Mr. Dervish and her mother to let them know the field trip went well, Crystal gives Silver a pokégear, telling him RIF—report, inform, and feedback—was important to let people you trust know what's happening with you right now. Silver accepts it, telling her that he can't bother her with Team Rocket. Crystal tells him she can't leave him in such bad shape, and moments later Silver suffers sudden pain from his fight against Petrel's Koffing. Crystal's Parasect promptly showers him with spores, detoxifying him. Silver apologizes, but Crystal reminds him that they're friends.
