The attendant leads you to the top of the airship, where you see an athletic-looking woman, apparently in her late teens, waiting with a cocky smirk. You catch a brief glimpse of Opelucid City below as you're led to a teleportation pad, before the world fades around you and just as quickly returns.

The arena you arrive in is at the bottom of a mined-out mountain, with several terraced levels above. In the center of the arena, a pale blue rock sits, a chilling aura emanating from it. A monitor above reads,


Twist Mountain Arena
Sapphire Bracket Round 1 Match 2
Casey Lee vs. Moira Salazar

The woman, apparently named Moira, gives you a confident smirk as she flicks out a Pokeball. "Let's see what you've got... Mummu, get ready!" She releases a Pokémon that you immediately identify as a Smeargle.
