Story 17

I wonder if there are any Pokémon or humans still around in this place... It’s exciting to think of the possibilities!

Right then! (your name)!
Would you mind going ahead and scouting out the area first?

Ah, you’ve found a great vantage point, (your name)! We can look out over the whole area from here!

It looks like this was another town where people used to live, but...it’s pretty much in ruins now.
And I’m not sure why—perhaps it’s the clouds?—but this place sure is dark.

At any rate, we’d better start out by finding a safe spot where we can relax.

Do you see a Pokémon Center anywhere?

Oh dear... It looks like the bridge is broken.

I can’t make it across that gap...

Do you think you can fix this bridge, (your name)?

I can’t cross to the other side.

You should be able to use something to connect this side of the bridge to the other side.

Phew! I made it safely to the other side—thanks to you, of course!

Oh!

Look, (your name)! There was a Pokémon Center here too!

Do you think this PC still works properly, like the other one?

Why don’t you check out this PC, (your name)?

*beep beep beep* Accessing Pokémon Center.

... ... ... *bzzz zzzt*
There is a problem with the Pokémon Center PC.
Please contact a nearby Pokémon Center staff member. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Hmmm... This PC doesn’t seem to be working.

It’s just a hunch, but I think the flooding here may be the problem.
Human-made machines are awfully convenient, but they don’t do well with water.

So I think we should do something about all this water before we try anything else.

Where in the world is the water coming from anyway?

Where in the world is all this water coming from?

If you block wherever it’s flowing from, that should clear the water from this area, I think.

*beep beep beep*

The Pokémon Center PC has started working again!

Oho! Excellent job getting rid of that water!

Maybe now the Pokémon Center PC will work properly!

Why don’t you check the PC, (your name)?

Isn’t this thrilling?

Oho! So the PC’s working now, is it?

Welcome to the Pokémon Center!
Here, you can continue taking on challenges to improve the quality of your environment!
Each Pokémon Center offers its own original challenges. Please do your best to complete them!

Do you think you can get items from this PC too?

The Life Coins you get from completing challenges can be used at any Pokémon Center!
You can exchange them at this PC or others for the items of your choice!
We’ve added more to our lineup, so be sure to check it out—and keep on living your best Poké Life!

Oho! So we CAN get more useful items here!

Still, this Pokémon Center is in pretty sorry shape, just like the last one...
I daresay it would be a problem for any humans who return.

What say you, (your name)? Shall we find some friends around here as well...
and rebuild another Pokémon Center?

Well, let’s see... I’d start by creating habitats to make it easier for more Pokémon to come back.
I’m sure the items you get from this PC will help with that!

Oho! That’s the answer I hoped to hear!
Your best bet is probably creating more habitats to make it easier for more Pokémon to return.
I’m sure the items you get from this PC will help with that!

Then, once we’ve got enough Pokémon back here, we can all work together to rebuild this Pokémon Center!

I think many humans and Pokémon must have lived together in this town too.

It would warm my heart to see it restored to its original brightness.

Oh, look! Is that a Meowth over there?

(your name), why don’t you go talk to Meowth?

*beep beep beep* Accessing Pokémon Center.

... ... ... *bzzz zzzt*
There is a problem with the Pokémon Center PC.
Please contact a nearby Pokémon Center staff member. We apologize for the inconvenience.

First, let’s follow Meowth.

It looks like they headed toward that shack!

Oh! Looks like this PC is working!

That’s great to hear! Believe it or not, I can’t swim. So please make a nice big bridge that even I can cross!

You should be able to fix it by connecting the two broken sides of the bridge with something.
This may surprise you, but I can’t swim, so I’m counting on you!

First things first—let’s find a Pokémon Center.

But golly, this place certainly is dark.

And if anyone can make that happen, it’s you, (your name)!

Could that be what I think it is? Come, follow me!

The PC should be working... Bring Tangrowth with you to check it out!

You’ve fixed the bridge! Now THAT’s the (your name) I’ve come to know and appreciate!

All right—time to cross that bridge!

One foot in front of the other... One, two, one, two... Slow and steady so I don’t fall...

Sorry, (your name)... Please wait until I’ve reached the other side.
