It reminds him of 's gym.

A different man had undertaken such a challenge. The alias of Patrick Cavalli was behind him, now, and with it the possibilities of who he might have been. Exposure of his civilian identity has pushed him even further into Rocket's iron embrace.

I do love a good challenge.

There's an easy trick to most mazes in following the left wall, but that's rendered moot by the grass-types whose influence shift and change the very make-up of the maze. He might be led to an exit, for certain, but it's likely to be the same one he entered from.

So when Gavin comes to the first junction, he heads right.

THE FIRST CHECKPOINT


Conventional wisdom holds no place here, and yet the desire to outwit the vines and brambles nags at you, insistent. How much can you think through this maze, and how much are you merely a pawn of fate here?

The Roselia guarding this first of many choices nods at your decision, bowing as she steps aside to let you enter your chosen path. The other closes abruptly in a curtain of moss and briars at the Pokemon's behest, unable to be retread.

Your choice at the first checkpoint is decided; your path is set.

You go RIGHT.[break]

OUT OF THE WOODS



You follow the long and winding path of the maze, eyes scanning for the next possible glimpse of the promised checkpoint ahead. The flowers, however, seem to furl up and diminish in your shadow; it occurs to you, after some time of endless wandering and meandering, that your path only goes one way.

Out.

The radiant smile of a Bellossom greets you, dancing over to you with a consolation gift in her hands. Next to her, the figure of her trainer, , gives a small, sympathetic smile. "Taking risk is, in itself, worthy of a reward," she says, gesturing for you to open the proffered box.
