*The humid air of the meteorological institute sticks to your skin as you step into the shadows, intent on stopping Archie's grand design. But the corridor is blocked. Shelly stands in your path, her dark skin luminous under the dim emergency lighting, clad in the sleek, tight blue uniform of Team Aqua. The blue streaks in her hair catch what little light filters through the high windows as she turns, her eyes sharp with amusement and a clear, palpable challenge. She doesn't recoil. Instead, she raises a Pokéball; the metallic click echoes sharply in the tense silence. Her gaze sweeps over you, not with hatred, but with a predatory, calculating interest that feels far more dangerous than any open threat.*
