"But we just got through with..." Owen looked exhausted. They were the least prepared for a fight right now. But they had to. And Maple was already preparing to depart, carving a portal--which had even more explosions echoing out. S'more was shouting something into his badge, so he was at least...

Diyem looked to Saltriv, his eyes continuing to study them. Yes, this was Saltriv. He had summoned them, but thought they'd been sent the wrong way. Interesting that they turned up properly here... "Yes," he replied. "I am." He turned his attention to Starr, then Brisa, and nodded silently...

"Good, good!" Owen said hopefully, spinning around now that Cabot and Brisa had properly taken care of the machine. He shouted out to the others, "The machine's down! We can--guys?" "Damn overachievers," Soda muttered, looking like he had been ready to flee with Maple even as the last of the...

Astrid, Starr, and Brisa had focused their efforts on Giovanni, with Cynthian ready to perform a backup strike. But for now, their efforts were entirely focused on Giovanni, the Machine could wait. Because this was the one behind everything that they had to go through, right? And now he was...

"Did she explode AGAIN!?" Owen cried, looking back before covering his eyes to block out the horrible brightness. "It isn't even a Shadow enemy this time!" And yet, during all of the chaos outside, the fighting continued inside. So much of their efforts were focused on the machine. The Radiant...

Blacklight Mewtwo flinched at the electric wires that surrounded him, but its expression did not change from its blank stare even as the electricity dug into his body. Instead, he floated forward, thought the cage that tried to immobilize him, and then disappeared in a flash of light. "Brisa!"...

The three of Team Drumstick flinched at the attacks, though they were quick to push away the attack and thrust the wires away. "How dare you try to deceive us!" Bone roared, readying her Bone Club. "We won't be tricked!" "We have seen what Dark Matter can do, and we are seeing it again,"...

"All right, time's a'wastin'!" Soda called, jumping forward. "Do what you can and we'll try to find openings if there are shifts in the field!" "I'm noticing that with how wide everything is, we might be able to help f we get lucky," Maple added as they rushed forward, but then an explosion...

Just as it revealed itself, Nate would see the source of that other presence. "No--" Karat visibly shuddered, taking a step back. It was just what he didn't want to see--standing before them, just behind Giovanni, was a Deoxys, taking on a standard form, though his body seemed to rapidly shift...

Giovanni's smirk wavered and he narrowed his eyes. "What are you talking about?" He did not look back.

They appeared just outside of the laboratory, and immediately felt a strange power rush through them. Owen winced and stepped away. "Ngh, what is that? It burns..." "Radiance," Maple said, her fur glowing in resonance. "And a lot of it. Be careful. Be wary of using Radiant techniques in its...

Bone nodded, then looked to Tender and Nugget. "I guess that's all I have to share with you. Nothing more I can do, so I'll be seeing you." She looked to her two teammates. "How about we get some lunch?" "Sounds good to me," the Blaziken said, waving farewell to Astrid and Celeste. "Be seeing...

The insides were empty. If they had any furniture or other human decorations or technology, they had been lost or recovered by researchers long ago. Perhaps it would only be a keen eye that would be able t o confirm that these were human ruins at all, and not just some strange, ancient society...

"Right. It's not far from here... More like an outskirts to this area. Follow me." And so, she walked for a while longer, Nugget and Tender following behind silently. Through a small forest and into a little, dug-out crater, Bone motioned to what appeared to be a simple but large pit with...

"That's more likely," Bone replied simply, looking to Celeste. "There is another ruined settlement of humans nearby that showed some interesting telltale signs, and it's the only thing we have to go by for what humans were like before. I think I'll take you there next. Are we done here?"

"Not many," Bone said. "None that lasted, at least. In terms of humans native to this world...? None as far as I'm aware. All of these ruins suggest older Pokemon societies with no humans, either. As far as the world's history is recorded or uncovered... Mysterious, isn't it? Perhaps stories...

"I don't know the exact date," Bone said, "but you would measure it in hundreds or thousands of years, at least. Perhaps more? But it was long enough ago that it was lost across generations any tales of humans beyond mere fables. I think the only person who would really know more about them...

Deep in the Air Continent, where several Pokemon whose lives were somewhere between modern and nomadic, there were several areas that teemed with life of all shapes and sizes in a relatively localized perimeter. One such area was a fallen-apart, deep blue building made of stone and other...
