What happened next came in a sudden swarm of activity. The blast flew toward Destiny Village with only seconds to spare, and at first, several on the team genuinely thought that Arceus wasn't strong enough to draw it away, let alone slow it down. But then, a wave of spectral energy made the...

A ripple of cyan light washed over the sky. Heads turned toward it, then at Dialga, who nodded gravely. "Positions, everybody!" Maple announced. "This is it. Do not falter. All of Cibus is on the line!" Psychic energy formed under the feet of Team Spectrum. Karat with the other Psychics rose...

"I intend to," Maple said. "With any luck, maybe Joule would be able to hear from me... But... If that fails, I expect you to not hold back." Maple held her breath, then added, "He's stronger than that."

"Hm, how about this," Nidoking said, holding the bag on the counter. "I'll keep these ones on hold and warm for you, and you can get back to me when you get the pocket change you need. Maybe I'll even get fresh ones if you've got other errands today." He shrugged. Nidoking had followed Kate's...

Maple looked at Dialga next. "Will you tell us when you'll drop the barrier?" "Yeah. On three, when I start counting. But we have some final preparation, don't we?" "Just a little." "Good luck, everyone," Buffet said, still looking extremely transparent after his encounter with Giovanni. "I'm...

"Alright, alright." Nidoking gave a little smirk back and moved to the far side of the counter where the other poffins were. "Let's start with some of the mixed recipes first. Made a few of them myself, y'know, and..." As he started on his explanation, he seemed to become a little more...

It wasn't a standard meeting place, that was for sure. Rather than the Guild lobby, Maple had messaged everyone to show up in the very center of town. There, Maple, all of God Squad, and of course Arceus himself were standing there, waiting. With him was the Creation Trio, still fused as a...

"Then, good luck, and break Joule's legs." Pop was pretty sure that was how the saying went. With Brisa and Luz gone, Arceus returned to his work, drifting into the light and into one of the upper floors of Destiny Tower. He sighed, looking over his notes. He had a few more documents to...

"Yeah, well, I've also spent the past two not-days planning how to do the not-dying part," Pop said with a shrug. "If I accepted that I was gonna die, then that meant I wouldn't be able to help people more, ya dig?" Arceus formed a little, silver-gold ember in front of him. "Sure, it's nice to...

Pop's eyes darkened a little and the wheel around his abdomen seemed to shift to a soft blue, imperceptibly. "That's not really a great way to live," he commented. "We're the strongest beings in the world, and sure, we're here to help the world... but we gotta help ourselves a little, too...

"Ain't too normal here, either," Pop replied. "For good reason. It's peaceful, well, aside from the Blacklight stuff. We all got together and decided it was time we got to know the mortals for a few lifetimes before we went back to sleep. That's the usual cycle for us Legends. Long rests 'til...

Pop shook his head. "Keep doing what you're doing. Rock 'em sock 'em, get Joule down, and... stuff." Pop looked like he'd struggled with that last part. "You can attack him like none of us can, y'know." He lowered himself until his hooves touched the ground. "So, tell me," he said. "No Arceus...

Pop chuckled a little, closing his eyes and bringing his head down. "Well, personally, I'm hoping I won't kick it too soon. That's just the worst-case. Would be real fly if I could keep the tempo going here in DT for years to come." He tilted his head at Luz. "Dunno if I'm your pops, though...

In a flash, Pop arrived like before, this time looking like he had just finished up some sort of overnight study session. He didn't look tired, but his fur was less than its usual, groomed smoothness. "Yo," he replied, bowing in a small greeting. "Been getting a lot of visitors lately. Here for...

Nidoking narrowed his eyes, like something she said was offensive. "Well, sure," he replied anyway, tail flicking and thumping against the wall behind him. "Here are some of the basic flavors. Most people usually want to start off with the basics before going into the more elaborate flavors, so...

Owen laughed. "I don't really know! But I do like it, and I'm not gonna complain." He took a few more bites of his own before finishing his stew completely. Nodding, he added, "Um... but I think we should just do our best, all things considered. I hope we can train a little more together after...

The eyes of the Creator glinted again, looking amused, though it also looked like, to some extent, he agreed with Mia. "I am not almighty," he said, "nor am I infallible. I suppose, by that definition, I am not a god." He nodded to Dave. "Take care. I wish us all the best of luck in our upcoming...

"When the inexplicable happens, that does not necessarily mean their memories were tampered with," Arceus said. "I understand your concern. But I have read her mind myself, just as I have read Shield's, Karat's, and Silver's. Maple does not show the same signs of Psychic memory suppression that...

"Good on ya," Thyme said, nodding. "You've got a lot of pressure on your back, here and back home, right? But I think you, uh, you know, take it well." Pepper grinned. "I've got faith that you'll be able to save this place," she said. "And don't worry about us. I heard from here-and-there that...

"Ehhh..." Thyme sighed. "It's kind of hard for me to explain that, isn't it? Like. Sure, I was a human who got involved in trying to save the world, but I feel like at some point it could be any human who'd have my, you know, criteria." "I think that's what she's asking," Pepper said. "Oh...
