Dylan met an anonymous trainer, who helped him trade to evolve Sawyer into Gengar. The evolution made him ultra-powerful, capable of taking down most opponents with a single Shadow Ball. The trainer also gave him three Pokmon from a trainer named Ronald:

Andrew (Sandslash) lv. 23
Abe (Pidgeotto) lv. 18
Teddy (Bayleef) lv. 17

There was a letter attached to the Bayleef, which read as follows:

Hello!
My name is Ronald, and I'm a beginner Pokmon trainer. I've had a few adventures already, but I think I've reached my limit. I just can't beat Whitney. I've tried so many times, but she's just too strong. It's not fair to my Pokmon for me to keep letting them get hurt like this, and I know there are lots of trainers much stronger than Whitney, so this must not be my calling. I'm going back home to figure out what to do with my life. If you're reading this, I hope you will take good care of my Pokmon.

Dylan read the letter over a few times. There was something about it that struck him, and it took him a while to realize what it was: this kid used to have a dream, but now that dream was dead. He left the Pokmon in the PC.

He made his way through Mt. Mortar, catching a Machop and naming it Gilgamesh, and onto Mahogany town, which was said to be the home of ninja. He wanted to see a ninja, but as he asked around town it became clear that if there were any, they were in hiding. Team Rocket were in town, though. They had set up a phony souvenir shop and were doing something with a radio antenna disguised in a tree. He tried to challenge them to a battle, but they denied that they were Team Rocket, so he didn't know what else to do. He headed north, and a thick rain started to fall as he stepped onto the Lake of Rage.
