Test 9.

[azumods]

SPACE The base in Eterna City is neither as large nor imposing as the Veilstone building; however, you've likely noticed by now that it's just as odd-looking, if not moreso. Located in the northwestern portion of town, it stands at the epicenter of the spatial disturbances plaguing the city; it doesn't seem unaffected by them - there are parts of it that seem...out of place, the building itself just as patchwork as the rest of the surrounding area - but it still seems structurally sound and the door is still in place and looks like it belongs to the original building. So it'll probably take you where you want to go upon walking through it. Probably. That said, while it's not the best idea to kick down the front doors and hope no one notices, it doesn't seem that you have much of a choice; unlike the Veilstone base, there doesn't seem to be another entrance. So it's either front doors or nothing; hopefully there isn't anything too hostile immediately inside. There don't seem to be any guards stationed outside the building, at least - it seems that they're staying inside just as much as the locals are. Either that or they have other reasons for not being around. On the one hand, Dialga may have given you some idea of what you're likely in for eventually; on the other, Palkia is an entirely different creature, holding dominion over another aspect of the universe entirely. Hopefully you've steeled yourselves, either way; best of luck to you.

[....?

Oh! Well, that's a thing, isn't it? Clefairy will immediately switch from panicked to cheerfully smug, clinging onto her new shiny souvenir!

Her trainer, on the other hand-]

Clefairy!

[LET HER JUST SHOVE PAST GALLADE AND REACH OUT FOR SAID LITTLE PINK PUFF]

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

[There's a small pop right next to Clefairy, and a Kadabra appears next to her, apparently the reason why she's floating. The blue neckerchief clearly indicates that it's Sena's Pokemon, but even without it: how many other Kadabras do you guys even know, anyway?

Anyways, here's your little friend, Rey.]

[greydients]

[HER FRIEND!!! She is being thoroughly squished into a cuddle, good lord.]

Sena, thank you!

[...there might be a little crack in her voice, there]

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

[Portus might look slightly nonplussed - he's certainly not Sena - but he'll nod a bit stoically and float a short distance away to question the other Pokemon: what just happened here. why are you guys fighting a literal actual deity is this seriously the life you guys have. he thought the thing with Dialga was a fluke.]
