second train → ...literally a train (days 2-7)
[So lately there have been a bunch of crazy body changes the poor people of Luceti have had to go through. Ingo is no exception, but even after being turned into a Pokémon yesterday, he definitely wasn't expecting this.
SUDDENLY, SUBWAY SYSTEM.
There's a new set of stairs near the fountain that descend underground. The sign beside it helpfully spells out LUCETI SUBWAY. Elsewhere in the enclosure, similar staircases can be found, or the subway simply emerges from underground at the end of its path (such as the one near the beach).
Going down the stairs near the fountain reveals a rounded room with a number of platforms like this. The maps inside depict where each subway line goes. Most of the subway lines are pretty normal, but there's one that just goes in a circle labled "BATTLE LINE." There's an instruction sign on its platform explaining that it's a Pokémon battling line, and if you board you will be expected to specify your battle type and face 20 hologrammed trainers before reaching the SUBWAY BOSS(a hologrammed Ingo and/or his brother). GOOD LUCK CHALLENGERS.
Yep, other than that and the suspiciously Ingo-sounding intercom, it seems like a totally normal subway!
...Except one more thing.
Why do the trains have sideburns?!]
[Feel free to use the subway as you please! Tag in traveling groups, run into each other on the cars, or strike up a conversation with intercom-Ingo, whatever works. There can be stations wherever, and they can be underground/aboveground, either is fine! YEAH.]

...Is that narcissistic?]
Eusine, good to see you. [
well that's a new one.] I suppose you won't have to go to all the way to Unova to experience the subway, now.ALSO I'M STUPID AND FORGOT ABOUT EUSINE'S EVENT EFFECT so day 3?
(Ingo's HTDWAM stat has clearly reached a high enough level to appreciate Eusine's presence. B))
Hi Ingo's disembodied voice! Of course, the Subway Master can't just be sitting there in the first cars. You're probably awaiting challengers further away!
You actually being the subway is a little too weird to come up with on his own, even for him]It's quite a sight! Does it use magnetic suspension?
[... Hey, he likes the new shiny magnet train! Magnetism is cool. He's a pro at magnetism. (this is where giving Electrode a brofist would be appropriate, but sadly Electrode has no fists)
god Eusine would have been such a little train nerd if he'd been raised in Unova. INSTANT AU JUST ADD TRAINS]RIGHTO
[WHICH IS WHY PEOPLE SHOULDN'T GO DOWN THERE]
no subject
He points to the instruction panel, specifically the part about the battle line trainers. Hey, if you could see he was there you can totally see what he's pointing at, right?]
Are the trainers usually holograms?
[Maybe what you're lacking in magnetism you make up for in holograms! Holograms are awesome. He even designed an hologram machine himself, that's how awesome they are.]
no subject
Not usually; they are used mostly when there are not enough real Trainers currently onboard to fill the slots of a challenge. Here, of course, they make up the entirety of the challenge. [because lol no trainers dfsgfg WELP] We prefer to have Trainers battle other Trainers; while the hologram system has intelligence enough to create genuine battles, it can't quite match the creativity of a real opponent.
[bla bla bla i friggin love my subway, eusine]
no subject
This place needs more trainers]
Well! I suppose I'll have to teach them some creativity, then.
[He snaps his fingers, and a Pokéball appears in his hand. ~Magic~!]
no subject
Ah? [You caught his attention with that.] You will take the challenge, Eusine?
no subject
[... Too bad there's no one else to entertain save for Ingo. Oh well. YOLOOOOOOOO... or uh, YOHASILO. You Only Have A Subway In Luceti Once.]
no subject
YOHASILO aghdsfjdg i laughed way harder than i should have]
All aboard, then. [One of the subway's signs changes to SINGLE LINE, appropriately, and the doors open. C'MON EUSINE TIME TO SHOW YOUR STUFF]
no subject
He likes having a bigger audience, ok.
SHOW HIS STUFF HE WILL! But first of all, he'll get inside and take a look around. Ooh, shiny.
(... are those motorbike trails on the seats)]
no subject
THOSE GOD DAMN BIKERS AUGH]
no subject
The subway will start to leave the station, but Ingo won't start the battle program until Eusine's finished looking around. FEAST YOUR EYES ON HIS SUBWAY BEAUTY.
(is that vain, since he's the subway himself right now??)]
no subject
But don't worry, Eusine won't take too long. Just enough time to take in the shininess
and start devising some subway-related battle strategies. Soon enough, he's ready for the challenge! Come at him bro.]no subject
Eusine's first challenger shall be a Backpacker, loaded into the other side of the train. She sends out an Oshawott! There you go, bro, there's that ottermon he was telling you about.]
