Arrival in Gigas
The City of Gigas is unlike anything the people of Union have ever seen before. The city is immense, a sprawling metropolis that covers the land as far as the eye can see. Built up primarily around enormous centralized towers, unlike Union these towers are dark concrete buildings, covered in glass windows. The buildings seem to serve any number of functions, and have a startling variety in construction, style, and even size, creating a unique skyline that is breathtaking to behold. The city is connected with roads of asphalt, upon which whiz smoke-belching steel carriages at frightful speeds, the engines (and piercing, constant horns) creating an ever-present din that engulfs the city in loud, chaotic sound.
“Downtown,” as the Gigans know it, is a huge collection of stores, apartments, and businesses. Apparently, the larger homes are built in Calderan-style but tend to be further from the main commotion of the downtown areas, of which Gigas citizens assure Union citizens that there are several, each with their own district name and culture. The technology is quite advanced as well, full color televisions are standard in every home and built in devices so slim and with such sharp images that they seem decades ahead of Union’s own technology. Pokemon are still quite present in Gigas, many people riding flying types and the buildings having huge perches to accommodate them. As with the vehicles below, however, Gigas seems to regulate air traffic to individual lanes and the birds seem well-trained as they convey their trainers to and fro.
Humans are just that, here, Human. No unusual shapes and sizes like the Enlightened and Earthkin of the Union Alliance, and those displaying unusual traits receive odd looks. Like many civilizations to the east, Battling is a common sport though in this place it’s more like the combat arenas of old. Several stadiums dot the cityscape, the sounds of Pokemon Battles and cheering crowds echoing for blocks all around, and it’s a stadium where humans are not welcome. Unless, of course, they want to make a show and spar against a Pokemon, of course.
This is Gigas, the City of Reclamation. Union civilians have free rein to explore this grand city as councillors are invited into the massive capitol building to negotiate with the Gigan leaders. Gigas civilians, for their part, are polite, friendly even. While many of them are caught in the bustle of their daily lives they regard Union citizens with interest and curiosity, willing to talk about their city, extolling its virtues while complaining about the noise, the crowds, the lines, and the expense all the while. One thing is clear though, the people of Gigas are proud of their city and their accomplishments. This is their home, and they are eager to show it off to the world.

He smiles a little, in some amusement. Ah, youth. As luck would have it, a brochure of some kind had been pressed on him a little while ago, and the gleaming thing currently trundling away down the street looks an awful lot like the picture on the pamphlet.
He holds it out to Ryuko, tapping her gently on the shoulder with his staff to catch her attention instead of using his words.
"I believe you should hold onto this. You'd certainly make better use of it than I can."
It's an advertising brochure all about the newest models of these motorized bikes, written in an appropriately bombastic fashion. Details on how fast it can go and what designs there are available (as well as paintjobs, apparently) are included within.
no subject
Skullface isn't though, and the Cubone perches on her back, seizing the back of her jacket with both hands and trying to tug her back out of the roads, protesting loudly all the way. Ryuko's jump when Magnolia taps her shoulder almost sends her tumbling but she manages to hang on.
"Hey! What's the big idea--" she stops short when the brochure is shoved in her face and her eyes go wide and she totally forgets her protest and is quick to grab the paper and flip through it eagerly. Skullface makes her way back up, peering over her trainer's head. "Whoah... I didn't know Gigas had stuff like this. These things are awesome!"
Aaaaand it's about then that her eyes fall on the prices and her expression drops noticeably.
"Oh, crap...."
