As dusk approached, thick clouds blanketed the sky. Beneath them, the trainers aboard the cruise ship stared grimly at the inaccessible ruins before them.
So far, only two trainers had successfully entered the ruins: Heavenly King Lucian and Heavenly King Caitlin.
There was no doubt that both of them were stronger than the vast majority of trainers present.
But that was completely useless.
The two had stumbled into the ruins without understanding how, and never mind any gains—they had each suffered worse than the last.
Heavenly King Lucian had been instantly defeated and thrown out, while Heavenly King Caitlin had been beaten badly enough that something seemed to be wrong with her head.
No matter how they looked at it, these ruins were not a place that could be explored lightly.
Quite a few people began to lose heart.

"I think we should call it a day."
Listening to the idle chatter of the Psychics aboard the cruise ship, Heavenly King Lucian shook his head.
After half a day, they still had not found a reliable way to enter the ruins.
Their only gain was confirming that the ruins did not seem especially dangerous.

That only made Lucian and the others even more curious about why these ruins existed.
Could it be that the Legendary Pokémon behind Infernape and Armored Magnezone was selecting suitable trainers and preparing to grant one of them an opportunity?
Stories like that were widespread throughout the Pokémon World.
