Running from the dojo and straight to the guild, like tunnel vision, was a little Charmander with a comically tall pile of berries and other items in his arms that he may have stockpiled in the dojo for this very moment. He hadn't even noticed Brisa and Starr while he cut corners, and as quickly...

A creeping shadow still lingered even after the portal disappeared, bright, pinpricks of light in the very middle of that splotch. This shadow silently moved toward Starr and Brisa, and then surfaced next to the Shinx of the duo. "Khhh..." It was a Mimikyu, and a familiar one at that. A black...

Several days had passed with no sign of Starr or Brisa, yet Giratina and Arceus were both confident that they would turn up soon. While the Reverse World was vast, it was not impossibly so, and he had put his faith in Giratina to eventually find their presence. She started with the most remote...

"Hssss... Ksssshhh..." It kept struggling, making it halfway into the bush, before it ultimately stopped, its head poking into the leaves but going no further. It didn't breathe, but it never did; it seemed that, for now, it wasn't able to fight back.

The Sleep Powder clouded around the Shade and it hissed again, thrashing about as some of the powder landed on its body. Its thrashing went from ferocious to clumsy, and it started to stumble away next, its movements more and more careless.

"Hssss!" Somehow, they were able to expel it, and the Shade jutted out of Cynthian's back. It leapt a few feet away and flopped several times on the ground, writhing in pain like it had been thrust into an open fire. It then curled up and tried to slither into a nearby bush.

Do not let your guard down! Diyem said as the haze seemed to spread through the town square, and suddenly the once peaceful town felt more like a battle arena. Cynthian is not himself! You must strike him down! It seemed that several Pokemon were looking at the showdown, apparently blind to the...

<><><> The days came and went without much incident. Unlike what had happened in the residential district and the marketplace, it seemed that in general things were very quiet in the square. That was, of course, until one day Diyem had suddenly entered the minds of the Pokemon that happened to...

While they talked and Treasure Town went about with its usual routines, Diyem scanned the area for anything particularly strange. Finding nothing, let alone any distortions, he said, I suspect that you will not find anything today, but perhaps tomorrow, or the next, you may. The central plaza is...

Owen left with Dave quickly, looking at his hands with interest. He still felt that tingling from the Radiance, but he didn't know how it would manifest... Still, the investigation came first. Hopefully it would help out with his currently-unformed perception abilities. "Right. Good luck, Jaro...

Owen waved when they started to leave, and then turned toward Dave. "I guess that leaves the two of us to check out the marketplace, huh?" he asked, though he couldn't hide the nervous spark that occasionally jutted out from his tail. "I, uh, hopefully it won't be too hectic in there. No news...

"We're hiding quite a bit!" Truffle said cheerily, nodding. "Now, our main reason for not telling you all this immediately is largely because we weren't sure how loose-lipped some of your team members are. Among you right now, Owen was considered a major concern due to how expressive and...

"Shh, shh," Truffle said quickly, bringing his wings over like a dome over nothing. "It's confidential information for now. If the world found out that several Legendaries were going missing like the Dark Matter incident, there would be even more of a panic than there is now! We are keeping...

"Hmm, that's a very good point," Truffle said, nodding, apparently going past Jaro's slip. "If that's the case, we should try to split things off into three groups. The first can cover the main square of Treasure Town where most travelers would be coming and going. There is a lot of activity...

"Well, Darkrai is one," Truffle said, "though as you can see, he was able to resist it enough that you were able to defeat him. If these Shades had enough power to completely overtake powerful Pokemon like Darkrai or Team Spice as a whole, there is no doubt you would have lost." Truffle hummed...

"It is indeed quite a hassle, but if Arceus were able to solve this instantly, we would probably not be seeing any of you right now. This is quite like the Dark Matter incident in general, really... And that may be why he, too, is so focused on finding the solution before it escalates further...

"Yes!" Truffle said with a cheerful glint in his eyes. Then, after a pause, Truffle relented and said, "Well, under normal circumstances, he certainly can help. However, anything related to this recent threat... distorts his vision somewhat. However, that alone allows for great deduction! Where...

"Then let's--" "Wait!" someone shouted, and heads turned to see that Surf was there with Turf right beside her. She was looking much healthier, now. "You're... you're gonna rescue Team Spice, right?" "Just about," Soda said. "Hopefully we find 'em there." "Then... then we wanted to send you...

Diyem had been quiet while the explosion of shouts pounded at his mind, and once they finally moved on, he bit down on his feelings. He was used to this. Perhaps in some ways he deserved it. He knew that they all knew he was hiding something, but he wasn't about to go off and tell them in front...

Owen frowned, looking at Cabot, then at the sky. He figured that not a lot of the group heard that, but he did. "I guess these names are so strange that they just become words to us," he said. "We must be in a really faraway land..." Soda looked between Owen and Cino, then Cabot, and then ran...
