The ruins of Faraday were not a beautiful sight, but then, Scott hadn't come there to see beautiful sights, hadn't come there as a mere tourist.
Scott was walking through the ruins because he wanted to find treasure to sell, simple as that.
His Pokemon were all out, searching for valuable items along with him (and, he hoped, acting as a deterrent to any who might otherwise think him an easy target). Every once in a while Scott glanced upward, trying to see if something was falling from the islands above--he hadn't seen anything fall nearby yet, but every so often he heard the sound of ruins hitting the ground in the distance.
Scott looked back and forth, stepping forward only when he was certain he hadn't seen anything of possible use...
...speaking of which, he now found himself face to face with a valuable treasure indeed.

(Claiming Sun Stone)
The Sun Stone glinted in the mid-day sunlight, the shine enough to catch Scott's eye and make him draw closer. Even if it weren't an evolution stone, its sheer beauty might have given him some quick cash from the right jeweler. As it was, though, it was a most valuable find indeed.
When Scott picked it up--the stone was warm to the touch, having soaked up the sun's rays--he had initially been planning to sell it as soon as he returned to the city, but now that he looked at it more closely, he was having second thoughts. A number of Pokemon evolved via Sun Stone, he knew, and maybe one of these days he'd bump into one of them, and he'd wish he'd held onto it. Besides, he wasn't especially hurting for money at the moment, but he knew well from experience how quickly that could change.
Was it better to sell it now for a quick infusion of cash, or to save it for the right Pokemon or a rainy day?
As Scott tucked the stone into his bag, he decided... that he would have to think some more about it as he continued to wander the ruins.

(Claiming Aerodactylite)
Scott didn't recognize what he'd found at first. It looked like a marble, really, except for the size; the stone fit into the palm of Scott's hand, as he held it, but only just. But it shined in a way marbles didn't, a deep glimmer that seemed to fill up the entire sphere, and the purple color within was clearly a part of the gem rather than a mere embellishment--
Wait.
Wait.
Was that a Mega Stone?
It was, wasn't it? As he turned the stone over and over in his hand, Scott grew more and more sure that that was what he was looking at. A Mega Stone that had fallen from the sky--or rather, from one of the floating islands above--just to make its way into his hand...
Well, Scott wasn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth.
Scott pocketed the stone--it was heavy in his pocket, heavy and cool, but somehow he felt more comfortable keeping it close to himself--and wondered, idly, what kind of Mega Stone it was as he continued walking.

(Claiming Leaf Stone)
The next stone Scott found didn't glitter like the others, didn't shine in the sunlight, but its brilliant green hue was enough to catch Scott's eye, and the leaf imprint found on one side of it made identifying his newest find an easy task.
A Leaf Stone. He had found a Leaf Stone, just sitting there waiting to be taken at the top of a pile of debris. Three stones with special powers found practically back-to-back... This was certainly a good day for treasure hunting, that was for sure.
The stone was covered in a thin layer of what was either dust or dirt, but Scott was able to clean it easily enough just by running his hand across it. (The Leaf Stone wasn't quite as smooth as the Sun Stone he had found earlier, and nowhere near as smooth as the as-yet-unidentified Mega Stone; Scott could feel as well as see the leaf imprint pressed into the stone.)
After cleaning the Leaf Stone, Scott put it in his bag and continued onward. The sun was getting close to setting, though, so he knew he'd have to leave soon--Scott had a feeling that sticking around the ruins at night was a recipe for disaster, and he didn't feel like testing out this theory the hard way.

(Claiming Pearl String)
As Scott turned back towards Faraday City proper, he saw one more item glittering in the quickly-dwindling sun--or three items, really. Three small pearls lay on the ground, with a long, thin string holding them together. The remnants of what had once been a beautiful pearl necklace, presumably.
Had it been lost when the islands were created, someone evacuating but leaving their jewelry behind, the necklace breaking apart when it fell to the ground? Or was it more recent, someone breaking their necklace while wandering the ruins and not bothering to keep around what remained of it?
It was interesting to think about, but in the end, the pearls' origin didn't really matter. What mattered is that they were clearly unattended at the moment, that it was highly unlikely that anyone would notice their absence, and that they could almost certainly be sold to a jeweler for a fairly hefty sum.
Scott grabbed the string and put the pearls in his bag, careful to keep them on the string so they wouldn't get lost in the mess that was his bag, before heading back to the city.
