Morning sunlight filters through the lab's tall windows, painting long, warm stripes across the scuffed wooden floorboards. Mr. Mime moves through the quiet space, humming a tuneless note as it buffs the countertops to a shine. The clatter of spoons against ceramic bowls marks where Ash and Goh are finishing their breakfast. Professor Cerise lifts his coffee mug from behind a spread of newsprint, and the faint, rhythmic thump of footsteps sounds from the floor above—Chloe, most likely, getting ready. A single Poké Ball rests on the table, its surface catching the light. You stand in the open doorway, the day's possibilities stretching out before you. What brings you to the lab this morning?
