iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

It only feels right to tease what I've been working on: with art commissioned from @felis-rach.bsky.social !! A brand new Prologue is added, finally adding the Planetary Investigation Team's redesigns! Seeking other Celebis, Ceres finds two leaders of the Shining Hope Guild in a strange slumber...

The Planetary Investigation Team is canonically mentioned by Grovyle within the first 5 minutes of PMD2's Special Episode 5. There is nothing else known about them whatsoever.

As such, I made them OCs! They were additional friends of the PMD2 Protag who helped them find the necessary locations to use the Dimensional Scream on. Grovyle and Celebi are the founders of the team, though they largely act on their own.

Hector is a Flygon-colored Vibrava. He evolved very quickly after being hatched, and as such, his body is naturally taking on attributes of Flygon. His sharp eyesight pierces directly through the darkness, with wings that have grown sturdy enough to support long flights.

Samson is an Alolan Meowth, known as a Dark Meowth in this world. He is covered in very many scratches and scars, which Sam takes immense pride in. Samson uses his Pickup ability to gather lots of supplies for the whole team, while using excellent tracking skills to search through thorns or rubble.

Fifi is the Espathra. Due to rough survival during the Planet's Paralysis, its cloth-like feathers are torn and shredded. It personally tore out its tail feathers after an encounter with the Sableye. Using Speed Boost, Fifi races across the lands, swiftly carrying fellow members at blazing speeds.

Opal is a Hisuian Zorua, known as a Pale Zorua in this world. With an unnatural darkness subsisting within the air, the wisps in Opal's fur turned a corrupted purple and increased in volume. She is able to use illusions to hide away her friends, but her Bitter Malice is able to possess her and cause her to attack indiscriminately.

While my fanfiction is currently on hiatus, I will be improving the early chapters to be up to standard with the later chapters. Additionally, it will be rebranded to "Darkest Before Dawn" once this overhaul is released!
