This was a great update tbh. My favorite part was the part where it was roleplay.
My second favorite part was the part where Xano2323 and Asphoxia got rekt on two separate occasions.
The Upper Group: Send in D.A.R.E. to stop Heat Man's blaze.
Gladion: Disdainfully spit on the alien to short-circuit it. Quickly now, before you get your kill stolen for the seventeenth time!
The Dome Group: ...Heck if I know what's even going on with them right now. Do something productive, I guess.
C: Fire a grappling hook and attack it to the helicopter's landing things. Then jump out of the building and hang beneath the helicopter while epic music plays.

C: Fire a grappling hook and attack it to the helicopter's landing things. Then jump out of the building and hang beneath the helicopter while epic music plays. Seconded!  "More fire... Jake, Hydro Pump him (Also another Rainy Day would be nice...)"  "You know I am really limited on PP for both of those."  "Good point, we might use up Hydro Pump's PP if Heatman can recover by jumping in lava."  "Daedalus, mind holding Heatman still?" |

Well, it's about time for another update. I ended up playing Mother 3 for a bit, so...that's my excuse of the month. Being the deft child that you are, you pull a grappling hook from the ether, aiming it towards the helicopter with scary accuracy. It lands on the leg of the vehicle, reeling you upwards. The pilot looks back, worried about turbulence and a bit more surprised to see you launching up to the cockpit at an alarming pace. Ein figured abandoning Terramort would not be an easy feat. Not with someone like you being around. Stein fell for a similar fate, after all. But naturally, he was prepared. He had the power of a legendary on his side! There was no way he could...Oh. Oh, dear. Grasping at where he kept his pokeballs, he felt 6. Not 7. XD002...his precious shadow pokemon had gone missing! He ran a hand through his hair, now quite a bit more worried about his current situation... His thoughts are interrupted as you launch into the cockpit, kicking him over. He stands back up, adjusting his glasses, a scowl adorning his face. "You really are quite persistent, aren't you? Going to such lengths for those you consider 'friends'...defying all laws of physics in the process. And yet...why? Does any of this really mean anything to you, by the end of the day? I know what you are. What you REA-" You weren't having much more of this villainous monologue stuff, so you responded in kind with a gentlemanly slap from one of your spare gloves. You weren't an animal: but neither were you going to take any more of the man's bull. Unfortunately, you weren't exactly privy of two things. One...nobody was piloting the helicopter. And two...the swirling mass of energy that it's flying direc- Oh. The Helicopter's gone, along with you in it. Sorry, didn't speak fast enough. C's ultimate fate shall be left up to you, of course. I'm personally still reeling from Mother 3's story, so I imagine if I personally said where he went, I might accidentally traumatize someone through pure, emotional writing. So...yeah. (>'-')> <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) (>'-')> <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ (>'-')> On Floor 3, Jake and Leif talk strategy. They nod to Daedalus, who nods back. "Yeah, I can hold him down. Don't be afraid to hit me, if you must! I can take it." Daedalus lunges head-first towards Heat Man as he himself charges towards the group. The Incineroar catches him mid-attack, pinning him down with a pile-driver elbow! This is Jake's cue to fire, Heat Man being unable to resist the full-force of the attack! Daedalus is hit too, of course, but he makes sure Heat Man takes the full force of the blow. To wrap up the exchange, Lucas rushes in, using PK Love β! It's enough to result in a killing blow, causing Heat Man to explode and drop TM 215 (Atomic Fire). The group, of course, celebrates in the best way they know how: attempting to skip the floor completely. Amazingly, this works pretty well, until they approach the elevator platform. Big Ears clutches his head in pain, overcome by what he would only be able to describe as 'the most evil thing you could think of...' "Hey. You lot. Do me a favor..."A lone man stands in front of the elevator, brandishing a rather imposing axe, glowing in the cavern illuminated only by the lava that flows within it.  (>'-')> <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) (>'-')> <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ (>'-')>Who's ready for MORE RP LOGS?!? You know I am not.

The helicopter, upon entering the wormhole, experiences a strong amount of turbulence. You're knocked back and forth on-board the flying vehicle, as you feel like your very being is being torn apart... You do the only thing you can think to do. You cross your arms across your chest, borrowing the power of the Koop to activate a limit break: Coda. This prevents you from taking the damage of being torn out of existence entirely.There is no ship of the Fire Navy for the Helicopter to land on as Aang channels the Ocean Spirit to destroy both Helicopter and ship as What a Wonderful World plays...for there is no helicopter to destroy. And you cannot prevent Ein from escaping...for there is no Ein to stop anymore. It's just you.(>'-')> <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) (>'-')> <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ (>'-')>NGAAAAAAH!Who should match our opponent clad in eerie armor but yet another opponent clad in her own armor: Undyne! Several spears are thrown towards Saral Caine, as he parries each and every one put of the air. He jumps towards Undyne, lunging forward with his axe, as the blow is parried by Undyne holding a spear in front of her, horizontally.  * Huh. You're pretty fast.  * I've fought children faster than you.  * I've slain monsters better than you. Saral kicks Undyne as their weapons are parried, the force of his side-tilt enough to knock Undyne off-balance. He brings his axe up, aiming it directly for Undyne's face. As it arcs downwards, though, it is stopped...quite suddenly, by Uncle Grandpa!  "...Hmm." "Uncle Grandpa!"  "Good morning!"  "...The hell?"  "Now, now, Mr. Cainre. I heard your pleas from my van. If you need exercise that badly, violence isn't the answer. Now, Giant Realistic Flying Tiger! To the gym!"  *roaring sounds* Uncle Grandpa grabs onto Saral Caine, jumping up on his Realistic Flying Tiger. The two fly off into space and land at some undefined Gym, wherein they started to work out! Saral Caine continued to be confused by all of this, eyeing a particularly...orange woman in the gym. She gave him a knowing look...  "...He got you, too?"...The group proceeds to go to the elevator, when they're suddenly stopped by several members of D.A.R.E.! They seem to think the entire group as a whole took lethal doses of some rather sick mushrooms...as they also think themselves guilty of taking. It's all sorted out within 10 or so minutes, when everyone unanimously agrees that nobody took drugs. That entire thing with Uncle Grandpa really did happen.  They then actually go up the elevator, still joined by the D.A.R.E. representatives. They're greeted with a large, cavernous chasm...and, another Robot Master. Said Robot Master initiates battle by launching a flail out from his arm cannon...  It's Knight Man!...Some stones also fly by overhead of the group. Nothing terribly important.

They continue to be completely unproductive, despite requests to do the opposite several posts ago. "...What's this?" A man with sandy-green hair, a plaid shirt, and glasses walks along the beach of the small town he lives in one day. The man adjusts his glasses as he spots a boy washed up on the beach. He turns him over, so that he's facing up... ...The man makes a run for it, back to the mainland not far off. Minutes later, he comes back with a few other people, who are carrying a stretcher. They lift the boy onto the stretcher, and carry him to a large building nearby. There's a sign next to the building. It says... 'Expanding the Pokémon World! POKÉMON NET CENTER' |

Despite everyone's best efforts, nobody is able to catch any of the stones that fall towards them. They just sail too far away. Notshalite is slapped awake by Cloacky's Wake-Up Slap, which does...very little damage because it's a physical move, and because Cloacky lacks any arms. The Notshalite leaps into action, thrusting a spear through Knight Man's shield and armor. He does this two more times, for each time that this action was posted from a different perspective. Why? Because spears beat flails OBVIOUSLY. Knight Man explodes in a glory of armor, dropping TM 644 (Knight Crusher).  ...Before the group on Floor 4 can get much further, the stones flung at them increase in intensity...all of them missing. Finally fed up with every shot of his being a dud, a man drops down from the ceiling, finally revealed. A Stone Man.

"Oh look, it's Stone Man."
I think you mean Rock Man. And by that, Mega Man.
"No, definitely Stone Man. I mean, if you actually looked he's made of stone bricks."
Huh. Now that you mention it the blue bomber does look a little less blue...
"That's not... oh never mind."
A Razor Shell should work nicely, I mean, he'd be a rock-type, right?
"Actually he's weak to Napalm Man's weapon, Napalm Bomb."
Napalm, seashells, same difference. Now watch th--*gets pegged in the face by a brick*
Oooh that's gotta hurt.
"Oh my goodness! Notshalite are you okay?"
Ow. Yeah, I'm fine, Brick Man over here throws like a--*gets pegged in the face by a brick AGAIN*
"... Notshalite?"
Ughhhhh...
"I would advise not standing up next time."
Can it, tin can. Now this time I'll--whoa. Ha! Missed me--yikes. Hey, stop! Why won't this guy quit--yerr, throwing bricks at me?
"Maybe it's because you started TAUNTING HIM???"
Hey, it's not my fault this guy has such--gah, bad aim...!
"He nailed you with bricks twice!"
Lucky throws!
I think he had it coming.
"Notshalite or Stone Man?"
Both, to be honest.
"I find it endlessly amusing that all of our foes seem to only go after Notshalite."
Notshalite dodges and blocks the remainder of the incoming bricks while moving closer to Stone Man. Just as he gets within striking distance, however, Stone Man jumps up in an attempt to stomp on him! Notshalite, while surprised, keeps a level head. He rolls sideways to dodge and then slashes sideways with his Seamitar as Stone Man lands, cutting the stones on Stone Man's chest in half. He then quickly does two more diagonal slices and then slaps the head of the robot master, now disassembled from the body, into the chasm.
"Huh. I guess seashells do make a functional substitute for explosives."
And you know it! Good riddance. I need a soft drink or something...

Imma just copy-paste what OshaliteX2 posted Notshalite dodges and blocks the remainder of the incoming bricks while moving closer to Stone Man. Just as he gets within striking distance, however, Stone Man jumps up in an attempt to stomp on him! Notshalite, while surprised, keeps a level head. He rolls sideways to dodge and then slashes sideways with his Seamitar as Stone Man lands, cutting the stones on Stone Man's chest in half. He then quickly does two more diagonal slices and then slaps the head of the robot master, now disassembled from the body, into the chasm. Normally this would be pretty great, except this means that D.A.R.E. don't get to pull off something funny on Stone Man to finish him off. This would be followed with some slapstick but IDK the group has no time for these shenanigans. One of the members kicks Stone Man's decapitated body, ejecting TM 635 (Power Stone). Stone Man thoroughly defeated, the group jumps into the D.A.R.E. helicopter, blasting off through the roof of the cavern. Mere minutes remain, as the top group jumps and crams themselves into the Wily Saucer, a few in the group wiggling their eyebrows along the way. The two vehicles escape from the island's horizon as it bursts into a magnificent explosion, bringing down with it boundless research and equipment. All for the best. Both vehicles steer their way straight to the nearest city- Fuchsia, southwest of where the island had been. But, it is a long trip...and the Wily Copter is kiiiinda slow.

As much as Koop would wish we not progress the plot first, we only have so much control over Phoenix Wright's character. And as a character, one of the first things he's going to do would be...examine the scene of the crime very carefully before doing something like calling the police. >Examine: Window -Phoenix There's a large building right across from the office. The "Gatewater Hotel." A nice, luxurious place. As expected, plot does not happen. >Examine: The Thinker -Phoenix It's encrusted with dried blood. How ironic that this became the murder weapon... again. Phoenix Wright may or may not hear canned laughter in the distance. As expected, though...no plot happens. Also don't expect me to put these pieces of evidence in a case file referral thing please the actual referral for this CYOA updates infrequently as it is. The Thinker added to Court Record. >Examine: Shards of Glass -Phoenix Some shards of glass are scattered on the floor. They seem to be the remains of a glass light stand. Shards of Glass added to Court Record. >Examine: Office Chair -Phoenix The chief's chair. A simple, functional design. Feels pretty good to sit in, too. >Examine: Mia -Phoenix Chief...It's hard seeing her like this, but if there are any clues here...She was struck on the head with a blunt object. She probably died instantly. "The Thinker" lying next to her must have been the murder weapon. Hmm... there are some glass shards near the chief's body. Must be pieces of the glass light stand lying broken in the back of the room. Nothing else that seems like a clue here...Hmm...? A piece of paper! It must have fallen from Mia's hand! What could it be? Phoenix takes a closer look at that piece of paper...and suddenly, gasps in horror! >Examine: Paper -Phoenix A word is written in blood on this scrap of paper! "Maya"...? Did Mia write this? This piece of paper is a receipt from the Celadon department store, dated yesterday. (Wait a second! "Maya"...! Was Mia trying to tell us something about that girl? I think I'd better show her this receipt. I never thought there'd be a use for evidence like this outside the courtroom!) Receipt added to the Court Record.Phoenix gives the receipt a quick glance, though once-overs it, as if something in the back of his mind is screaming 'closely examine the back.' Let's see...I can understand the glass light stand, but what the heck's a 'Fresh Puppy'? Probably not too important... (I think that's enough snooping around for now. I'd better call the police...and find out what that girl was doing here.) And so, Phoenix goes over to the Pho- Nope never mind he's examining more stuff instead of progressing plot >Examine: Ledger -Phoenix The Fey & Co. ledger book. Everything is written in the chief's ultra-neat handwriting. It's a small office, but it makes a good bit of money. >Examine: Desk. * -Phoenix A perfectly normal office desk. The chief had a very particular policy about office décor: "Spend big on stuff the clients use, but keep your own stuff simple." >Examine: Computer -Phoenix Surprisingly, the chief was never good with machines. About all she used this PC for was e-mail. She picked up this ancient model at some garage sale for practically nothing. >Examine: Right Bookcase -Phoenix All the chief's important documents are packed in here. This is where she filed her case records and recent rulings. And now, plot progression. >Examine: Telephone -Phoenix Right! I'd better call the police! ...? That's funny...A few of the screws on the receiver are missing...It looks like someone was halfway through taking it apart.  -??? Police!? Please, come quick! -Phoenix (Wh-what was that!? Someone screaming from outside the window!?) ...! She's staring right at me! She's holding a phone in her hand... Phoenix looks away from the window, and decides to move back to the office to check up on- *thump*-Phoenix Huh? What was that? Sounds like it came from the desk... >Examine: Desk (I know that sound had to come from here. It couldn't have been my imagination...could it?) Phoenix looks under the back of the desk with all the curiosity he can muster, finding...what appeared to be a small gremling?-Phoenix Wh-what the?!  -??? No! Not more of them! How persistent ARE these 'humans'? The mystery being tries to make a run for the door, but trips. Phoenix chases after them, where he sees them struggle with the door for a bit. He also sees that the mystery girl is no longer on the sofa... -??? Stupid wooden barrier! Why won't it budge! -Phoenix (Wh-what is that thing? And...that girl wasn't on the sofa where I left her! I hope she doesn't run out on me...just as I hope that thing doesn't figure out the door too soon.) As if on cue, our mystery lady walks up to Phoenix from behind. -Phoenix Yipes! (Don't scare me like that...) Phoenix looks over to our mystery girl, but looks behind him, back at our mystery creature. So many questions brewing in his head... >Feel free to ask questions. Of course, our friend C has had questions brewing from his head from the start, and begins rapid-fire asking the man each and every one, one after the other. Our yet-unnamed individual begins answering them to the best of his ability. >Who are you?"Me? Well...my name's Celio. I'm a programmer of sorts and...not to brag, but I'm responsible for the PC System out here on the Sevii Islands. I was able to develop a means for this PC System to connect to almost anywhere else in the world!...back when such a feat was considered a breakthrough, mind." >Where am I?"I don't know if you're from around here, but...right now, you're in the Pokemon Net Center on One Island, my 'base of operations', you could call it. As a more general answer...One Island's part of an island chain called the Sevii Islands, some ways south of Kanto...well, er, WAS some ways south of Kanto. Now it's just sort of in the middle of the ocean relative to nowhere in particular." >How did I get here?"Honestly, I don't know...your attire definitely screams 'Kanto', but you couldn't have come adrift from there. For one, these islands are WAY off continent. And even if it were possible you drifted here, most likely from a boating accident, there's still two. Which is...Kanto's been gone, and for some time now. It's been weeks since anyone's seen hide or hair of the place. I'm pretty worried, myself. My close friend Bill lives there, after all." >How long was I out?"Not terribly long. At least not from when I found you, washed up on shore. I took you to the Pokemon Net Center as soon as I could, and you've been out for...well, not even an hour. Your vital signs were looking very good, the doctors say. They wouldn't recommend moving about so soon after regaining consciousness, but you don't seem to be debilitated in the least, so...you're free to go whenever." >Did you happen to see a scientist wearing a lab coat? Or a helicopter, for that matter?"Sorry, but that's a no on both fronts. Though, falling from a helicopter might explain how you got here...who knows, though? It's possible other people on the island might have seen either of them. Couldn't hurt to ask around!" >I AM VERY DISGUSTED WITH THE TRASHY MAN. IN SPITE OF THE MONSTER, AND THE COACH, ONLY TRASHY, I WILL BEAT DOWN THEM ALL. FOR THIS I MUST STRENGTHEN MYSELF. THE MONSTER IS THE SAME TOO. COLLECT ALL THE TRASHY, RIGHTEOUS FELLOW ALL ARE UNPARDONABLE! YOU DON'T AFFECT ME. THE TRASHY STROLLING IS AN EYESORE!"...I really need to brush up on my Estonian. Regardless, I'm still so curious! Who are you? Where are you from? Oh, the questions are just gonna pile up! So...I'll just let you tell me about some things at your own pace." |

If you guys are wondering about a lack of interactivity this update...blame a lack of actions for Phoenix, and the fact he isn't actually your character in the first place.Of course, Phoenix Wright knew as well as any rational person that, well. People hiding under desks don't usually do so solely for fun. I mean, yeah, a few people do, I used to do it all the time, but at the scene of a crime? Please. For all intents and purposes, she could very well have been the murderer! -Phoenix (...Except they hardly have the physique for murder. The Thinker may have been too heavy for them, and even not counting that...The Chief was struck in the head!) -Phoenix (Still, with reports of monsters on the rise, you can hardly be cautious...and the Chief has told me some cases can be flipped to their extreme with the right evidence!)  -Phoenix (There's still the matter of that girl, too...) >Ask Gremling: Who are you?-Phoenix Excuse me, but...can you tell me your name? -??? As far as I'm concerned, you don't have the authority to know! Now tell me this instant how to open these incessant, highly-advanced wooden barriers! -Phoenix (I should probably restrain them before they figure out it's because of their height...) -Phoenix Listen, unless you answer a few of my questions, we're going to be here all day. Now, do you have a name, or... -??? Nyaaa! Graaaah!...If you have to address me as anything, you may address me as Peridot. -Phoenix Peridot? Like...the birth stone? >Ask: what were you doing under my desk? -Phoenix ...I'm going to have to ask what you were doing under my desk. -Peridot Is that what you call that awful place??? -Phoenix ...What? -Peridot Don't act like you don't know! It was so dark, so murky...how do you humans live with such awfully-kept road systems? It's disgusting!-Phoenix ...What? -Peridot ...Nraaaaaagh! Why won't this stupid thing budge! >Ask: relation to Mia Fey Phoenix Wright: Excuse me, Peridot, but did you happen to know Mia Fey? As you might notice, she recently- -Peridot I'll never tell you anything! Except my name, out of courtesy, and about your road system as cautionary advice, but nothing else! -Phoenix I don't think I'll be getting anything else out of them, anytime soon...but they did mention something about 'more of them'...But exactly what does that have to do with Mia's murder? -Phoenix At least I still have someone else to question... >Ask: Mystery Girl: Who are you? -Phoenix Excuse me but, who are you? -??? ... -Phoenix It's okay. I work here. -Maya Maya...Maya Fey. -Phoenix Maya... Fey? -Phoenix ("Maya"...? So Mia was writing this girl's name! Maybe I should show her the receipt?) -Phoenix (I never thought there'd be a use for evidence like this outside the courtroom!) Rather than dragging out the segment for even longer, Phoenix begins asking Maya...questions. About things.>Ask: About what happened -Phoenix (She seems to be in shock. I don't want to disturb her, but I have to know...) -Phoenix Um... excuse me? Can you tell me what happened? -Maya ...I came in...The room was dark. And Sis... Sis...! -Phoenix (So she was already dead. If she's telling the truth, then Peridot...) >Ask: About "You and the Chief -Phoenix So, you're the chief's...? -Maya Sister. I'm her younger sister. -Phoenix And you were here... visiting? This late at night? -Maya Yes. She said she wanted me to keep some evidence for her. -Phoenix Evidence...? -Maya Yes... I-it was that clock... -Maya It was "The Thinker." >Ask: About Peridot -Phoenix By any chance, you wouldn't happen to be acquainted with...that, would you? -Perdiot Peridot's Log, Entry 782...the wooden barrier appears to have some form of shiny, rotund protrusion. No doubt this is the human's form of a primitive hand sensor, but alas...without the benefit of my limb enhancers, this 'hand sensor' is simply beyond my reach. Improvisation with the environment is necessary to prolonged survival. -Phoenix ...That's probably a sign we should restrain them soon. Anyways, ever seen them in your life? Their name is apparently 'Peridot'? -Maya ...I-I didn't see them here. Just...sis... -Phoenix (So, Peridot wasn't here during the murder either...or they were keeping themselves well-hiddden. And who were they?) -Phoenix (If only I could get more information out of them...!) -Maya They do look familiar, though... >Present: The Thinker -Phoenix Um, about "The Thinker"... -Maya ! -Maya The Th-Thinker...That was...Oh, Sis! *sob*...You said you'd be safe... -Phoenix (Hmm, probably shouldn't have asked her about the murder weapon...weird about the 'staying safe' bit, though. Did the Chief have any prior engagements?) >Ask: About "Sis being safe" -Phoenix What's this about the Chief saying she'd stay safe? -Maya Well...I don't think you'd believe me, anyways. -Phoenix No, go on. Please...the Chief was killed. Any amount of information, no matter how small, could help... -Maya ...She said she was going into hiding...and that a cat accidentally spirit-channeled her... -Phoenix ...Uhm. -Maya See? You don't believe me! -Phoenix Well, no, it's just... -Phoenix (The Chief must have really enjoyed telling her bedtime stories. Still, she's clearly shooken up by this, so best to change the subject) -Phoenix Let's just move onto something else for now, something like... >Present: Glass Shards -Phoenix This was lying next to the chief. -Maya I know. I saw it there too. I thought they might be pieces of the light stand. -Phoenix Hmm. Maybe. (Never heard of a glass light stand before...) >Present: Receipt -Phoenix Before Mia died, she wrote a message with her own blood. She wrote it on the back of this receipt. -Maya ! -Maya Th-th-that's MY name! W-why!? Why would she write my name? -Phoenix Please, just calm down. -Maya W-why would Sis write my name? -Phoenix (Uh-oh. Now I've done it. ..) While Phoenix laments his life choices, sirens can be heard blaring from outside, followed by knocking on the door. Just as Peridot stands upon several stacked books, reaching for the doorknob...she's knocked down, the door opening swiftly, revealing three men in pig-like uniforms, two pink and one blue. The two pink soldiers formed a salute, as the blue one tightened the grip on the gun he was holding.  "The Pigmask Police Force, at your service! We received a call about a murder on the premise, So...uh, don't move a muscle or we'll be forced to shoot, okay?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You begin to recount your tragic past to Celio, starting from the beginning...that day in your room...Which seems a bit odd to you, at first. You're sure stuff must have happened before then, but nothing comes to mind. Whatever, the juicier stuff happened pretty much after that point, anyways. You tell him all about your quest around Kanto...his grin widens when you get to the part about meeting Bill for the first time, as if listening in anticipation...and it seems to fade completely once you start talking about going towards the pyramid fortress in his backyard. "Now...hold on there. I'm willing to believe your story to some extent. It's a little out there...unbelievable, even...but I draw the line at Bill being some form of evil megalomaniac. I mean, I'm very close friends with him, and I think I'd know if he had a secret, evil agenda..." A brief pause. The frustration in his voice seems to disappear... "...That is, until we simply dropped all communication about a month ago. It was like he just, well...vanished. A few weeks later, the entirety of Kanto and Johto themselves seemed to disappear off the face of the Earth, too." "...A natural disaster like none other. An entire landmass, just gone. Nobody knew where it went...and you're the first proof in about a week that it still exists at all. But stranger yet...your story is peculiarly familiar. Please, tell me more..." ...And so you do. About Ver...Beach City, the incident at the Pokemon Tower, the Tree of Life, the Silph Co. Building takeover...and of Terramort. Celio listens, in silence...eventually breaking said silence, as your story concludes. "I see. Yes, I knew it had to sound familiar. Many events happened differently, but the basic story remains the same: A young trainer from Pallet Town, setting off on a journey across Kanto. That alone would be unremarkable, except for this trainer's encounters with Team Rocket, almost completely mirroring yours...Team Rocket, a criminal organization that's been defunct for years. Is it possible...are you that same trainer that helped me, all those years ago...?" |
