Chapter 17

                                    

                                          
Now we finally get to go inside the Ruins of Alph. The ruins are a maze, and we need the HMs to go through them. When we get into the first ruin, we see a puzzle in front of us.
"What is this?" Kris asks.
"It seems like some sort of puzzle..." Lillie says. "This Pokemon hides on the seafloor and watches the shore with eyes on its back. I have to assume that this is the description of Kabuto."
"So all we need to do is to finish the Kabuto puzzle with these pieces." I say as we finish the puzzle. Once it is done, we hear shaking and East asks, "What's going on?"
Just then, the floor below us cracked, and we all fell to the basement. When we get back up, Ethan asks, "Is everyone okay?"
"Yeah... I wasn't expecting to just fall..." Reisa says.
It turns out that we are not alone, there is a researcher who says, "Did you just come down from above? So! You must have solved the stone-panel puzzle! This is wonderful! You seem to have some talent with archaeology."
"I guess we do?" I say.
"I will give you this Unown Report. It records Unown as you capture them. I am sure it'll come in handy!"
After giving us the Unown Report, we decided to take out the Unown we captured. It is actually the letter A. And just then, portals are opening, and Unown A to J appear from around us. But much to our surprise, they aren't trying to do something crazy like turning the places into crystals.
"I guess they are not the hostile ones that we met before?" Ethan asks.
"They reacted to Molly's heart, but now I don't think they're reacting to anyone's heart." Lillie says. "But it will be interesting if we manage to capture all forms. I'm sure that we have enough space in our Space Manor."
Then we capture the Unown B to J, once we're done, we decide to try out other entrances to find the other Unown forms. There is also a hidden room when we're back at the room that we fell from, and it says Escape. After using the Escape Rope, we get into the hidden room. By falling down through the hole, we see some words on the bottom.
"Our clan engraved words in this place." Then we fall again so we have to go through the Chamber once more.
The second chamber is in the lower right and requires Surf, and the description of the puzzle is: "A Pokémon that knew no fear and flew as it pleased through the skies long ago."
"This is Aerodactyl... so we have to make the Aerodactyl puzzle..." East says.
"And for the backroom... it seems we need to use the TM for Flash." Reisa says.
So we decide to finish the puzzle but quickly leave before the floor collapses, and then we use the Flash to open the hidden room and see the words 'Our clan created a Pokémon statue outside.'
When we get to the chamber, we notice that there are Unown R to V appearing and we capture the 5 of them.
The third puzzle has a description "This Pokémon, with feathers of seven colors, flies through the sky, according to legend." And the puzzle is the Ho-Oh one. However, to get to the backroom, it says that we need Ho-Oh in the team.
"We don't have a Ho-Oh with us, how are we going to go through there?" Ethan asks.
"I don't know...But I have a Ho-Oh's Rainbow Feather... I wonder..." When I try using it, the door actually opens. And the words inside reveal to be 'We humans need to walk with them. We leave here for the sake of them.' And the Unown we capture is W to Z.
The last one is accessed through Union Cave, and we have to use the TM for Waterfall to reach it. The description of the puzzle is "A ten-legged Pokémon that swims on the bottom of the sea and eats plankton." Which is an Omanyte, and the hidden room is accessed when we have a Water Stone. The words are written, "They possess power to sense with mind and reject outside." And the Unown we found is K to Q.
