After healing my Pokemon in the Pokemon Center, I decided to go exploring this town. I talked to the person near the entrance from the route I took, and I received a Poketch App called Pokemon History, which shows my history of Pokemon caught. I looked around the town, and realized two things; one, it's barely a town, really more a few houses set up around a road, and two being that it's filled with cowboys.
I found a building next to the Center called the Pokemon News Press. The sign said they were looking for a pro Pokemon catcher. I became curious at the job opening, and decided to check it out. I went inside and found the man running the Press, who noticed my Pokedex and realized I knew Professor Rowan. He told me I was just the kind of person he was looking for, and asked me to catch a Luxio for their article. Fortunately, Maximus is a Luxio, and I showed him off. He was excited, and extremely grateful, and for doing my part he gave me some Luxury Balls.
I continued on through the town, going east to find a few houses and a cavern entrance. I visited the houses first, and the owner of one house I visited gave me something called a Seal Case. The item she gave me allows me to customize Pokeballs, though to what effect I have no idea. I talked to another couple people in the other houses, then started toward the cavern.
I made my way to the cavern, which turned out to be the Solaceon Ruins. At the end of the entrance hallway was some writing, made up in the form of Unowns, and I admit I find it extremely hard to read, but it was a long message. I get the feeling it is some kind of directions through the ruins. I know other people are big on getting every single Pokemon they can like every letter of Unown, but I don't see the point if they're basically all the same thing. If they were different types, sure, but not for different shapes.
I looked closely at the writing again and made out that it talked about different spots, "top right" and "lower left" and the like. I'm not quire sure what the meaning is, but I'll find out soon enough I'm sure. I went right to the next room, and found a little boy. The boy turned out to be the son of the Seal House woman, and he told me the ruins were weird, which is why he liked visiting them, then told me to come to his house after I was done here.
After he left, I realized that the place is made up of long rooms, with different paths of stairs, and the directions in the first hallway/room were telling me how to get to the end. I went back to write down the directions, then made my way through. As I followed the directions going down through the ruins, I found a Ruin Maniac who wanted to fight. The maniac sent out Geodude, and I sent out Annabelle, who used a Razor Leaf, but Geodude avoided the attack before using Rock Polish to increase it's speed. I tried using another Razor Leaf, and it again avoided the attack, then it used Mud Sport for minor damage. I had Annabelle use Absorb, a super effective attack against a Rock/Ground Type like Geodude, and it took it out. Annabelle grew to Level 25, and then the maniac sent out another Geodude, and I sent out Maria. One hit from Maria's Water Pulse took out the Geodude, then Bronzor was sent out. I tried using Mud Bomb, but it's levitate made the move miss, then it tried using Imprison and failed. Water Pulse did some decent damage, and then Maria got hit with Confuse Ray, and I switched out for Alexander. Alexander used Revenge for a great deal of damage, then finished off Bronzor with Karate Chop, and thus I won the battle.
I had to double back after I realized I lost track of where I made it through the directions, and then continued onward again when I regained my bearings. I encountered an I-shaped Unown, and caught it with Annabelle, another down for my collection. I made my way down to the bottom, and found another message; "Friendship. All lives touch other lives to create something anew and alive." An interesting message, to be sure. In the last room were several items, including a Nugget, Rare Candy, Mind Plate, and Odd Incense. I then made my way back out of the ruins.
I went back to the Seal House, and talked to the boy. He said that he was using seals to learn the alphabet, and his mother asked me to show him the Pokemon I catch from the ruins. I went to the Pokemon Center and came back to the house with my Unown, and he gave me several I seals for my Seal Case. I put the Unown away and looked around the town a bit more, and I found that this town has a Pokemon Day Care. I'm going to check it out soon...
