It was a strange feeling to experience as you boarded the eccentric contraption. The expectation for it to defeat the weight of gravity was abysmal, but against all the odds, it lifted off. Carrying most of the guild on one last trip to the strange realities beyond, you were ready to brave the storm to get there. Unlike the others, this one needed a bit more finesse.
The room within was cramped, if just to make space for the complex gears and pulleys operating the wings. There was just enough space for the guild to be in the head of the vessel, with limited space in the actual body. Contained within its core and powering the whole show was the creation of Doctor Doppler’s bleeding-edge genius: the Internal Combusting Engine. It was a large spinning cylinder with a chair and a sideways blast trap, operated by a lever with a substitute doll taped to one end. Someone had to be the unfortunate victim of controlling the blasts. But, it was, to the doctor’s word, “the most efficient power source known to Pokékind.”
That was debatable.
You were joined by a Tropius carrying anyone who didn’t feel comfortable sitting in a wooden airship powered solely by explosions.
