"Battle Arena?"
Mark lightly pinched his chin. Jirachi and Mew beside him also moved closer to Celebi and questioned it, "Is it a Battle Arena like the Giant Shell Battle Arena?"
"Mew?"
Celebi blinked. "Labi~ Labi labi~"

Shaymin tilted its head, looking somewhat confused. "Mii doesn't know either..."
"Shaymin, you little—!"
"Mew!"
