Many streets down from X-Eye Cauldron was a district of Destiny Village that had a bit more of a quiet, proper tone. X-Eye had the casual and friendly atmosphere, and Pasta Plaza had some shadier dealings, at least at a relative scale, but just down the roads and closer to the library was a...

Red frowned, the flame on his tail dimming. Then it was true. This place, Cibus, was similar to Telum, and yet not quite. Telum... had been destroyed. He'd died, and yet he was now here. He'd... failed? He was chasing after Giovanni, who had come to Telum, and had gone to the Tree for some...

Red nodded, but then looked at the mural of the Tree again, perplexed about something. Yes, there had been something bothering him about this world ever since he had arrived. Something very strange indeed. Because yes, they had confronted Giovanni at the Tree of Life, and yes, Mewtwo had been...

"I think I want to stay here," Cola said, nodding. "Being a god is nice and having my own place could be cool, but... I like it here. I just don't like that I have to share it with other-me and all that. That... Pop. I don't know why we have to be the same person--it's not fair!" Cola's haze...

Red frowned, looking at the photos again. There was pity in his eyes again as he looked at that Mewtwo, because he knew that one. He knew it because he'd seen him before. Red tilted his head at Astrid next. A familiar? Those Ultra Shades, probably. He didn't really know much about them, only...

"I dunno, I'd probably just chill out on Destiny Tower and then look majestic," Cola said. "Gods don't do a whole lot for the world, don't they? If there's a problem we just beat it up and if there's not one then we just lay back and relax. Sounds like a pretty good job to me."

"I dunno!" Cola shook his head, his eyes shaping themselves into the outlines of crescents with the curve pointing north. "I just like getting out and feeling the wind in my... uh... stuff." He didn't really know what to call his haze. He stepped to Rocky and teleported a few feet in front of...

"It's kinda tough to say," Soda said. "Maybe it's a fragment of Arceus. Or Buffet. Or its own thing. It's kinda hard to tell since I kinda don't study up on stuff like that."

"Yeah." Soda rolled his eyes. "Kinda. Let's just say that for one reason or another--never looked into it, probably some arbitrary shit--worlds like Cibus don't allow humans in. And they only get them because they need the power boost they have on Pokemon to get rid of some bigger disaster. So...

"Yeah! He let me out a little while ago as long as I'm with someone else that can hide me." Cola matched Rocky's enthusiasm. "I guess it's safe as long as I can be guarded and stuff, even if it's risky. He didn't want me to be trapped and cooped up in there all the time, after all!"

The golden haze poured out from Puddle's shoulder and onto the nearby tree roots, forming into that strange, Arceus-like body. He stretched his legs, which fizzled and faded at their longest length, and then turned his red, circle-outline eyes at Puddle. "Finally, some open air," he said, sighing.

"...I guess that we oughta go and save her," Soda replied simply. "That's really all there is to it. There's gotta be a way to do that. It's the goddamn Worldcore. That thing rewrote the laws of the world to allow Pine to stay here... Which is why Darkwhite being in there is bad news."

"Yeah, looks right," Soda said. "Kinda the same as the pictures taken. I think if a picture looks the same to both of us, then that means whatever they have going on is either so corrupted it's leaking into their real appearance, or... I dunno. Pokemon here are weird energy beings, who knows how...

It had been a very eventful few days that Cola simply wasn't allowed to delve into, which was irritating. He'd gotten in a fight with Pop--a one-sided fight where all Pop did was stare down and speak calmly while he yelled--and needed some air from Destiny Tower for a while. Thankfully, one of...

"Maybe." Soda scratched under his mane. "That guy freaks me out. The way he just stares, y'know? And not, like, at anything, but straight ahead. Creepy fucker. And I thought Karat was already intense." He paused. "Hey, now that I think about it, any weirdness with how he looks that we can't...

[Tamato > Team Spectrum]: Do you think if we threw a Poke Ball at her it would work? Maybe she still counts as a Pokemon since she's a Voice of Life and all that.

Puff kept his smile, and this time it seemed to be a real smirk. He waved off the medics and assured them he was fine, and after seeing him walk, they let up. Apparently Pokemon of Cibus really could walk it off if that was their standard practice. "I think I got all I need." <><><>

Indeed, the Charizard was staring at Astrid, and the rest of his Pokemon were also present along the table, eating their own meals with curiosity. It must not have been the cuisine they usually partook in. Upon spreading out the photos, Red leaned over for a better look at them all. Yes, he...

Puff was flat on his back, perhaps stunned by the sudden reversal or simply by the fact that he'd been challenged so much at all. "You guys really are... getting strong that fast, huh?" He carefully reached out to take her paw, then pulled so he could at least get to a sitting position. A few...

"Mm. No idea on that, either." Soda shook his head. "The way I heard the story, Balm and Cepa never had their Dark Matter crisis but it seemed like he'd been there up until a while before it was supposed to happen. And then at the same time, Cibus was having its Dark Matter crisis, give or take...
