Hendrix felt a bit of apprehension coming into Silph Co., not because of intimidation but because he’d been using Evol as a platform for his research and development of the Rider system. Prior to their move, the redheaded engineer made sure to scrub the system and add additional protection should anyone ever try to access his database, but knowing FERNANDO SILPH ’s machinations, he doubts there’ll be much protection there.

Thankfully, Evol’s Littleroot location hadn’t been fully shut down, so he’s able to use it as a base of operation of sorts.

Setting down a heavy box, Hendrix wipes some sweat off his brow using a clean handkerchief. ”That should be it for the important equipment…” Looking around, he quickly realizes that something, or rather someone, is missing. ”Oh, right, didn’t they say that someone was going to give me a tour around?”

He scratches the side of his head with a small frown before heading out of his new workshop. He briefly wanders down the hallways and into the lab where he spots a blonde sitting in front of a computer with a Porygon-Z by her side. Arching a brow, he approaches, leaning over her from behind. Much like the digital pokemon beside her, he quietly observes and scans the code on the screen.

”You’ll probably want to delete that line if you want to get in a little faster.” he says, pointing at a particular line of coding.
