Nghệ thuật AI: Ālika, Hākona – 2037 Deep inhale. The backwood flared as Dee pulled hard, the smoke spiraling into the midnight air before he let it out with a tired, raspy groan. “Can’t believe tomorrow’s Crimson Dawn Day,” he muttered, passing the blunt to Adonis. The trio sprawled across their 21st-floor balcony in downtown Ālika, drinks sweating in their calloused hands, weed rotating like a lifeline as they chopped it up past midnight. The city skyline unfurled before them—a jagged collage of neon and shadow that pulsed with Hākona’s dual soul. To the south, the coral-ringed coast glimmered with soft blues and greens, resort lights dancing on the waves, a fragile paradise undercut by the sinister red flicker of smuggling coves where fight club blood stained the sand. Central Ālika thrust upward with sleek skyscrapers, their glass facades catching the crimson moon’s eerie glow, while to the north, Mount Hāwai’s volcanic haze from Hākona Nui bled into the city’s industrial smog, a constant threat looming on the horizon. Below, the streets thrummed with the low growl of late-night traffic, punctuated by the distant, feral roars of underground battles—a reminder of the life they’d scraped and clawed their way out of, if only by a thread. Adonis took a slow drag, his quiet eyes tracing the skyline’s jagged edges, the smoke curling from his lips like a silent prayer. Aries snatched the next backwood, flicking his lighter with a sharp click, the flame casting harsh shadows across his scarred knuckles. “Means we can finally become trainers, man,” he grunted, blowing out a thick cloud that drifted toward the city lights. “If your application gets accepted, nigga.” He let out a rough laugh, the sound cutting through the night. Adonis chuckled, a rare break in his silence. “Motherfucka, you the one slingin’ dope.” “Look, man, gotta do what you gotta do,” Aries shot back, taking another hit, the ember glowing bright. “It’s all I know.” “You need to stop fuckin’ with them underground battles, bro,” Dee said, his voice low but firm, the weight of old memories tugging at him—his mom’s Dust-hazed eyes, the screams from the slums. Aries shrugged, exhaling slowly. “As long as my Pokémon ain’t the ones gettin’ killed, we good.” He paused, then softened, the bravado slipping. “I’m just playin’, but, shit, you know this hard for me too. Battlin’s the only talent I got. I don’t even keep the Pokémon—they just hand me the cash prize.” “Shit, damn near better than my borin’-ass job,” Dee said, reclaiming the wood from Aries, the smoke stinging his lungs. “That PokéMart gig’s killin’ me, bro. Stackin’ shelves, smilin’ at assholes—all for what?” “At least you ain’t slavin’ away in a warehouse,” Adonis muttered, taking a sip from his drink, the glass clinking softly against the railing. His voice carried the quiet exhaustion of a man who’d seen too much behind thin walls. “Yeah, but we got a plan, right?” Dee said, turning to face them, hope flickering in his tired eyes like a candle in the dark. The skyline seemed to lean in, listening. Aries grinned, raising his drink. “Get these starters, whoop everybody’s ass, and become the next GOATs of Pokémon trainin’.” “I don’t know, man,” Dee laughed, taking a deep pull from the backwood, the smoke curling around his words. “LeBron might be the GOAT forever.” “Now you know damn well the GOAT is Muhammad Ali,” Aries countered, sipping his drink with a smirk. “Ain’t no trainer ever gonna fuck with his Machamp.” “Fuck outta here,” Adonis said, snagging the wood from Dee, his voice gaining a rare edge. “The GOAT is MJ—Michael mothafuckin’ Jordan. Six-for-six World Champion, world.” “Don’t matter,” Dee shot back, rolling his eyes. “Bron made the World Championship ten years straight. Bro’s 49, still doin’ it, makin’ it deep in the Unova Region. Stop it.” “Well, if we talkin’ longevity,” Aries said, passing the wood back to Dee, “we gotta talk Lisa Leslie. Eight regions, eight fuckin’ championships.” “She definitely the best woman trainer,” Dee agreed, nodding as he took a hit. “Literally beat that nigga Dak Prescott a couple years back.” “Who won the hoe this year again?” Adonis asked, leaning back against the railing, the city lights reflecting in his drink. “Jayson Tatum versus Caitlyn Clark,” Aries replied, his voice tinged with excitement. “JT won on his last Pokémon—shit was intense. But he lost to the current Pokémon Champion, Ash Ketchum. Him and that damn Pikachu are unbeatable—he’s been champ for five years already.” “Damn, how old is he?” Dee asked, shock widening his eyes as the smoke drifted upward. “Thirty,” Adonis added, his tone flat but curious. “From the Kanto Region.” “Bro, when was the last time the World Championship was even hosted in Hākona?” Adonis asked, shifting the topic, his gaze drifting to the volcanic silhouette. “Now you know damn well that shit ain’t comin’ back,” Aries laughed, a bitter edge to it. “Was here like 2011, before we were even born, gang. How it get shot up and guns globally banned?” “That’s Hākona for you, bro,” Dee said, his voice heavy with disappointment, the skyline’s glow seeming to dim with the weight of their past. A heavy silence settled over the balcony, the backwood’s ember casting faint light on their faces. Dee leaned forward, elbows on his knees, staring down at the city’s pulsing veins. “Man, this place is a fuckin’ curse,” he said, his voice low, almost lost in the night. “Crime capital of the world, and we livin’ proof. Grew up with Dust in my blood, mom zonked out while them cartels ran the streets. Shit’s still the same—coves down there dealin’ coke, heroin, you name it, while we up here tryna scrape by.”
