Story & Progression Optional context

On the player's first arrival, a fire breaks out near the crossroads; it is extinguished when Aster arrives riding his Suicune, marking the player's introduction to him. The city's Lab is also where post-game gift Pokémon (Croakling, Inflant, or Chiripe) can later be obtained from Aster.
