Forgive the double post. But, as awesome as they are, I did want to move past the Hexagon Brothers. They probably aren't the most thrilling content to watch in a Let's Play.
Still, there is one left.

Oh, Greesix. Your sixfold obsession may be touching, but it's not healthy, man.

Six grass types (hence, the weakest of all the brothers). Against my beloved Espeon, and a Shadow Houndour that just relearned Ember. This is really not your day, is it?

Shadow Pokémon Alert!
See, the Shadow Pokémon selection at this point just really isn't that great. Heck, I'd rather have the Oddish. Even if Shadow Nuptup is a downright terrifying idea.

Well, good. Maybe now that I've beaten you and reduced you to five Pokémon your sixfold obsession will go away.
By the way, these guys actually remain here for quite a while. Their teams remain the same, except that they have one fewer Pokémon. So you can use them for grinding if you want. They still have the awesome Cipher Peon battle music.

Rather than going inside the main base, I decide to explore the garage to the side of it.

Apparently it's more of a storage area (which explains why the truck isn't parked there). But at least it has goodies!
Anyway, with that over and done with, time to actually head inside the main base. Tum te dum dum-

Jeez! Ninja Peons dropping from the ceiling! They think they can scare me to death, apparently.

Huh? Where'd the ninja go? Wow, he's pretty good if he can vanish as soon as he's defeated. Pity he wasn't that good at battling.
Anyway, there's an elevator up ahead, so down we go!

A fork in the road. Decisions, decisions. We'll go left first.

A scientist mumbling to himself about XD001. Apparently it failed. Yet it's still awesome enough to be the name of the game, so it can't fail that badly.
He then challenges me to a fight.

You know, I'd stop you, but I'm kind of still recovering from the shock that apparently you can get that awesome Cipher Peon music without wearing the cosplay outfits. I'm not sure why the Peons agree to them. Maybe Cipher is the sort of thing that happens when you leave a group of cosplayers alone too long.

Locked? Ok, that's only to be expected, I suppose. That's ok, we'll find a key card somewhere. We'll backtrack and take the south path this time.
GXXE01-10.png
What the heck?! Since when did people in the Pokémon universe actually start locking their doors?! Not cool, man. Well, one path left (even if it's to the right).
GXXE01-9.png
Apparently even their hall monitors are trained in ninjitsu, because this one just appeared from right above me as well.

This elevator had better not be locked, or I think I'll be stuck and unable to invade this criminal organization any further.
