[attr="class","aurelie_body"]Aurelie's lips shaped a soundless "Ooohhh" of fascination and delight when the admin seemed to agree—or confirm—or at least speculate that the massive, majestic purple dragon-like Pokemon might be something they could encounter in real life. For once, she found herself craning her neck for a final fleeting glimpse as the scenario faded. Even though they'd lost the fight, she actually felt a little sad to be leaving the simulation.

Especially considering the purple Pokemon, the Miraidon, had looked like it was starting to evolve into something else, something even more splendid, just as it disappeared from view...

Then another implication of Admin Bee's words caught her attention, and Aurelie abruptly perked up with interest. "'If these simulations can be believed,'" she echoed aloud speculatively. "Can they be? Are they expected to come true?"

The redhead added hastily, "And not, like, someday maybe in the distant future, but we think they may actually contain real information about what we're likely to see in Hoenn? Have other things from these simulations come true too?"

It was subtly different from Naomi Sato expressing to her that there was information or lore to be gained from these simulations. Aurelie didn't think she'd seen or heard about Eternatus around anywhere in the real world, though. She had to wonder, too, about riding Cyclizars and being chased by squads of policemen-like or League officer-like Genesects.

But if these things might actually come true... Well, better to be prepared and know ahead of time than not, I guess, Aurelie thought uneasily. On the other hand, it was cheering to think about having a Genesect or even perhaps a Miraidon of her own. Where do I get me one of those?
