Black & White arc

The Tubeline Bridge appeared inDecisions, Decisions andSchool of Hard Knocks, whereBlack faced a series oftraining sessions set up byBrycen. While Black'sMusha,Costa, andTula trained by battling Brycen's threeVanillish, Black was tasked with havingBo free him fromCryogonal's ice chain. As the bridge was from time to time rocked by the bypassing subway trains, proper aiming was difficult.

While Black was training, Brycen talked withDrayden about if they should give Black theLight Stone, asTeam Plasma had stolen theDark Stone, and the Light Stone seemed to have chosen Black as its hero.

After Black managed to free himself from the ice chain, his next test was to get past the BlackEmpoleon bike gang. With Tula dealing with the rest of the gang, Musha dealing with the gang leader Jeremy's bike, and Costa dealing with Jeremy himself, the bike gang was soon taken down. In defeat, they renamed their gang "the BlackTirtouga".
