On the third floor, two fossils still lay in front of Chris.
But this ti, there was a slight difference.
The two fossils, one with a feathered texture on the surface, were broken similarly to the previous pair, making it seem like they might crumble if picked up.
The other fossil retained its carapace texture but was slightly larger, with a clearer, more complete, and sturdier surface.
"Fossils from other regions can appear, and... there are good and bad fossils of the sa species," Chris mused.
Finding fossils from different regions was promising for Chris.
At the very least, it ant the Aerodactyl and Tyrantrum he had hoped for could appear.
As for fossils of the sa species, they could differ in quality.
Chris once again chose the fossil with the carapace pattern.
The mont he picked it up, Chris found himself back in his room.
The Mirage Tower had collapsed.
Chris opened his backpack, and two fossils with different nas appeared in the valuable items column.
Decayed Do Fossil: Fossil of an ancient Pokémon that once lived in the sea, resembling a carapace.
Do Fossil: Fossil of an ancient Pokémon that once lived in the sea, resembling a carapace.
The description was the sa, but the nas suggested a difference in quality.
Without further hesitation, Chris headed to the resurrection lab and decided to explore the desert region afterward.
He soon found a third Mirage Tower, this ti a decaying, two-story structure with an entry recomndation of level 35…
But Chris decided not to enter this ti.
It was already midnight, so he decided to rest until morning.
The night passed quietly, and at 7:00 a.m., Chris woke up, stretched, and handled breakfast for himself and his Pokémon before turning his handheld back on.
He reappeared in the desert region, but the Mirage Tower from last night was gone. Chris moved the protagonist through the desert again and soon found it.
Once again, it was a decaying, two-story Mirage Tower with a recomnded entry level of 35…
First, Chris went to Devon Manufacturing Co., Ltd. in Rustboro City, where he could resurrect the fossils.
In reality, resurrecting a fossil might take a long ti, but in-ga, it was just a quick conversation.
He started with the Decayed Do Fossil.
A new Pokémon imdiately appeared in Chris's Pokémon column.
It was a Kabuto—aning Chris's guess had been wrong, and the Do Fossil wasn't for Anorith.
He opened the attribute screen for Kabuto.
[Kabuto (Rock, Water)]
[Level: 5]
[Ability: Battle Armor (blocks critical hits)]
[Individual Values: HP (12), Attack (1), Special Attack (12), Defense (23), Special Defense (14), Speed (7)]
[Moves: Harden, Scratch]
[Held Item: none]
Well, how to rate it?
In four words: Not much to say.
Chris then resurrected the regular Do Fossil.
The result was another Kabuto, but its stats far outclassed those of the Kabuto from the decayed fossil.
[Kabuto (Rock, Water)]
[Level: 5]
[Ability: Battle Armor (blocks critical hits)]
[Individual Values: HP (23), Attack (31), Special Attack (22), Defense (13), Special Defense (7), Speed (31)]
[Moves: Absorb, Harden, Sand Attack, Scratch]
[Held Item: None]
Attack and Speed with two maxed values, plus four moves—this Kabuto is clearly a powerhouse.
Comparing the two Kabutos, the results were clear: Pokémon resurrected from normal fossils are stronger than those from decayed fossils.
At first glance, this doesn't look promising.
After all, each fossil obtained is the sa, and reviving fossils feels like gambling with stones or lottery tickets.
And with decayed fossils, it's even riskier—like a lottery where many tickets have already been discarded.
But Chris has a new theory.
If decayed fossils exist, could there also be enhanced ones?
And since there are two-story and three-story Mirage Towers, could there be a four-story one?
Chris moved his character back to the desert region, aiming to find an even rarer Mirage Tower.
However, this was clearly not an easy task.
Each Mirage Tower requires individual entry and will disappear after taking the fossil, or after three hours, a new one will appear.
Chris patiently entered each one, tower after tower.
By nightfall, he hadn't yet encountered a four-story Mirage Tower, but he had so good news.
The Pokémon appearing in the Mirage Tower were random and not limited to Ground types. Rock-type and even Steel-type Pokémon could appear as well.
This ant that Chris could potentially encounter Pokémon like Tyranitar or tagross!
Of course, he hadn't seen any all day.
"Three more Mirage Towers, then I'll call it a night." Chris yawned and glanced at the ti—it was around midnight. Today was tiring since he'd been playing and climbing floors all day.
With hundreds of steps climbed, if he kept grinding Mirage Towers tomorrow, he wouldn't need his usual morning workout.
Just then, the door to the movie room creaked open a little.
A familiar head peeked in—adorably curious.
It was his Togepi. "Toge-pi pi o(^▽^)o!"
"Are you looking for little Wynaut? It's already asleep," Chris chuckled. Togepi often ca to play with Wynaut.
"Toge-pi~~" Togepi shook its head, then hopped off the ground, fluttering over to land on the pillow beside Chris, snuggling close.
"Are you planning to rest with tonight?" Chris smiled, poking Togepi's cheek.
Sotis, if Delibird's late-night deliveries left Togepi feeling a little lonely, it would fly in to rest in his room.
Tonight seed to be one of those tis.
"Alright, sleep well," Chris whispered, turning off the sound on his handheld.
After brushing through three more Mirage Towers, he'd call it a night.
He looked down and saw the next Mirage Tower.
"One, two, three, four… four floors!" Chris's eyes brightened—luck was on his side!
But sothing felt oddly coincidental, and he had a sense of déjà vu.
Chris glanced at Togepi, then back at the four-story Mirage Tower on the screen.
Images of a Shiny Ralts and Shiny Aron flashed through his mind…
An eerie realization gave him goosebumps.
