Search #10 Sleepy Valley apartments

Upon arriving at the Sleepy Valley Apartment building, you already get the feeling that the owner, Gloan, must be pretty wealthy to own such a large place to rent out to so many Pokémon. The grounds aren't anything particularly special in terms of conditions, but you are already certain it's definitely not the worst building in town. But you get the feeling Gloan must not be the most pleasant landlord to have to deal with.

After inspecting the exterior of the building, you find several areas that Gloan, or whoever he must have hired to maintain the property, has neglected for quite a while. One area in particular around the outside looks like it was neglected for a while until only recently. It almost looks like someone has been here recently, and when you look around, you find all kinds of ripped-up pieces of paper. You gather them up...

=A Ripped Poem=

You then head inside the apartment building and search the interior. Most of the tenants have left for the day, but you do get the following details:

Rodan, the Combusken, appears to be a chef. There is a delivery by his door for cooking supplies and equipment. His apartment, however, is locked.

Meanwhile, there's a note on Nashelle the Swellow's door:

"Hey, Kile, if you're reading this, I'm going to be late tonight. Stupid Fletcher wants me working a double shift. I'll come to your place as soon as it's done. Love you, sweetcakes!"

The rest of the doors seems to be locked and don't offer any insight. You proceed to check the lower levels, which appear to have been neglected for a long time, if not years. You come across one basement door that appears to have been unused for quite a few years. You take a closer look to see there is a keyhole with a heart emblem. Meanwhile, there are two vacant spaces that need to be filled with some wing-shaped object.

Below it all, there is an inscription.

"Only those special enough to secure my soul will pass through these gates."

Locked Door {Abandoned Basement Door, Keyhole with Heart Emblem, Missing Right Wing, Missing Left Wing} has been noted in the Team reports.

Search #1 The Town Hall--Lita decides to first see if the town leadership has been able to do anything about the Stalkers, and hopefully find a lead

Despite all that has happened recently, the Town Hall of Serenity Town seems to still remain unshaken by the recent events, at least for now. It appears Mayor Pashner has been trying to keep order despite the calamities. In the meantime, you get the sense that the building is very old, but has been maintained well throughout Serenity Town's existence.

The outside of the building doesn't appear to have anything out of place. It doesn't look like anything was recently disturbed from what you can tell.

The interior also seems to be in good shape with respect to the age and original wood construction of the building. It definitely doesn't look like anything nefarious has happened here recently.

Inside, it appears someone has hidden something behind one of the seats meant for larger, fully evolved Pokémon. It appears to be something even Mayor Pashner has not seen yet, but as you slide out the metallic object, you see that it's a key of sorts.
