At the same time as the flash attack, the entirety of the city, save for places with back-up power, went dark. Team Snagem was on a whole different level now... Before theit actions were a little suspect and almost comedically evil, but were simply business partners to Team Cipher. But Team Cipher was no more as far as he was aware... He expected Snagem to simply fold and resort to petty crimes back in Orre, yet here they were in Arcaia. They had picked up the Shadow Pokemon research and now things were more dire than ever.<br/><br/>The journey ahead was going to be much more dangerous and perilous than ever. Many shopkeepers and stall owners were beginning to pack up and return home until the power could come back, and so Graham worked quickly. A few minor and some major purchases were made, earning some people some last minute quick cash and earning Graham things thay would help make the trip easier. He had plenty of food for himself and his Pokemon already... Changes of clothes when it became necessary... For the rare times he wanted to make coffee out in the wilderness he even purchased a coffee maker, but it would require an electric Pokemon to run... Which helped to dictate his next course of action.<br/><br/>"Thank you, take care of yourself. I'll go see what's going down over there." Graham spoke to the stall owner with the Camerupt as he'd bought a fair container of the man's unique coffee. Althea would probably appreciate it, but only so long as they had a means of actually making some. His next goal was to investigate the Power Plant and find out what the cause of the blackout was... Plus perhaps secure an electric Pokemon to help power his or other electrical devices.<br/><br/>Returning to the site of the ruined Festival, Graham frowned as the damage reminded him of what they failed to stop. Naozumi worked on clearing the debris with Daniel, while Althea moved to hopefully secure the other key. Carter seemed to be waiting there, calling out with a suggestion to go check out the power plant.<br/><br/>"Oh, good, thay saves me asking." He nodded, as Snivy dusted himself off and folded his arms to nod. Aipom swung into action on his shoulder, fistpumping with her tail in agreement, as he looked toward the dim light where the Plant was said to be. He looked toward the others, gauging how busy everyone was. "I'll scout on ahead and see if any of those clowns stayed behind. Come along whether anyone else is interested or if it's just you, the more the merrier." He nodded, patting Carter's shoulder before heading off.
