Walking along a narrow sandstone hallway, you suddenly feel the floor give way beneath you and find yourself falling. Saruki squeals with fright, latching onto you as tightly as possible, when you feel the tunnel you're falling through begin to slant. A moment later you find yourself whooshing out of a hole in the wall and landing in a crumpled heap on the hard, cold floor of a small chamber. Looking around, the sight of dozens of human and Pokémon skeletons shocks you, and you can't help but wonder if you're going to end up just like them. Standing up and brushing yourself off you walk around the room searching for any signs of an exit, but the only thing you find is a large golden statue of an Arbok with an inscription written upon it:
To find the door you must pass a test
To show you're better than the rest,
Defeat my minion here and now
Or become this serpent's chow...
No sooner have you finished reading the inscription when a Seviper slithers out of the statue's mouth, hissing vehemently with its piercing red eyes glued to you...
