Yeah, what a crazy concept it was to actually move on from their journey. But yeah, it was time to move on and since Amelia was following Steph and Freya's lead there was not much else keeping them unless any of them gotten the urge to start fishing. And as a reminder, backtracking is indeed possible if someone wanted to take a detour, but then go back to their original plan. Just a thought.

Anyway! The trio would give their goodbyes to Bo and good ol' Bary, that crazy bug-eyed bugger. Tall, feisty, and spooky walked along the quay where fishermen were just minding their business and then were back on solid earth and walked on the rocky pathway. It was funny, they could not really appreciate the scale of the forest until they started to approach it. Off in the distance, the forest looked normal, but as they drew closer and closer it was as if they were approaching a series skyscrapers. They were impossibly large and the shadows they cast stretched on and on.

With nothing else holding them back, they marched forward.




@samreaper

Workers began to gather around curiously to spectate the battle. They were just watching casually, eating their lunch and chatting amongst themselves while they had free entertainment fall upon their laps.

The elderly gardener rubbed his chin with a big grin on his face when he saw what Tristan sent out. "Oh? Now isn't she a pretty thing." It was not every day that someone saw a shiny Gossifleur. Even some of the spectators could not help, but admire her too.

Louis waved down the two handkerchiefs to signal the beginning of the fight. "Fight!"

Ramos had a big ol' grin on his face. Even retired, no one could take the trainer out of the old man. He pointed a finger forward and ordered with great enthusiasm, "Alright Skiddo, use Defense Curl and then Rollout!"

The goat curled up the best that it could to defend its weak spots though it did something that Tristan or really anyone would expect. It spin dashed towards Angel with great speed. How it did was not the important part; what was the important part was something that Tristan most definitely did not know and is actually niche knowledge. Defense Curl doubled the power of Rollout. Better not get hit.

What does Tristan do?


@Sanguine Rose

The friendly Tinkatink gave Faye a thumbs up.

Luckily, Tillia had not gotten it confused. The owl dive bombed towards the baby dwarf fairy thing though the Tinkatink held up its rattle and blocked the incoming attack though it stumbled back, which gave enough of an opening that the friendly Tinkatink just smacked it upside the head with a club, finally knocking it out.

"Tink tink! Tinka tink!" While Faye could not understand it, it was pretty obvious that it was just done with the situation. Like it knew that they were going to get caught, but neither of them actually listened to it. Go figure.

Meanwhile, with an opportunity to catch one of these strange things Faye threw a ball at the dazed and confused Tinkatink and it was absorbed into it in a beam of white light.

It rolled once... it rolled twice...



Meanwhile, Faye heard the sound of a Pokeball shake and then click. Rosa picked up the Pokeball that she used to catch the Tinkatink that she battled. "Man, these things really put up way more of a fight than I thought. What the hell did they want with a car engine?"


@Zarkun

Celebi looked quite surprise that this was the question that Jason decided to ask.
 
"There's always a bit of truth with legends, but yes, it is real," said Celebi. "People call it a curse or an omen, but it is none of those things. They are the unintended consequences of a Pokemon like me trying to communicate with humans."

The forest deity waved it hand in an arch, creating tiny whisps of green light. They hovered in the air, flickering like flame. "It was once known by many names, such as the Nightmare King and the Silver Eye though it appears that humans have forgotten. It's a mighty Pokemon that resides in the space between reality and dreams, the progenitor of its kind."

As Celebi spoke, the green light danced and twisted. A creature that resembled tattered cloth with a cloud like plumage, a jagged crown, and cold eyes like a crescent moon.

"As you would expect it communicates through dreams, but it would be like trying to understand a hundred mouths speaking to you once. It's chaotic, but it is never incoherent. There is always meaning to be pulled from it and always a reason. He is not a villain that enjoys driving those to madness, but one of the guardians of Evig. After all, it once was one of the trusted companions of the First King before it rebelled when the king committed the original sin, the-" Celebi's eyes widened and it curled up into a ball, hugging itself as it started to shiver.

With no warning, Celebi's body flashed with a red light though it wasn't just that; the forest guardian looked out of focus, as if Jason was seeing double though that was not what happened. It stared down at its hands, pupils shaking like "This is different. Something is-?" The forest deity strained physically to keep itself in this time period as if it fought the tide of a river that tried to rip it away. Something was wrong. It was suffering and confused.

Celebi looked at Jason desperately and said, "Become strong. I fear that you have no choice."

With a flash of red light, it was gone.

There was only silence.

What does Jason do?

The world stopped for Basil. He stared down death with as brave a face anyone could and waited for his fate to be decided. His mouth was dry, and he started to feel perspiration gather on his head though it was hard to tell if it was because he was so terrified or if it was the heat radiating from the Dragon Pulse, but he never flinched. There was something odd though. Basil could see it in its eyes, it was as if it was waiting for something else to happen.

With no warning, the Hydreigon threw its head up and shot off a purple beam of energy that ripped through the air. With the dragon's head so close to him, the sudden movement caused Basil to stumble back, and with his thrown back head he saw something collide with Dragon Pulse. "What the? Why is a Salamance here?" He thought to himself while he watched them clash in the air with reckless abandon though he had to rip his gaze away from the violence when he heard his name called.

Basil turned and saw a panicked Leslie run towards him obviously bewildered, not that he could blame her. Before he could respond, he heard a resounding boom followed by a shock wave that made him skid a few inches. He turned around and continued to watch a display of strength that he never really thought possible. Well, he knew that Pokemon could get this strong, but it was another to see it in person. It captured him though this was absolutely the worst time to admire the strength of Pokemon. His daze was broken by Leslie's grip and was pulled down to the ground to avoid being in the crossfire.

The two dragons moved so fast that he did not realize what had happened until the air was forced out of his lungs when something landed on top of him. Basil laid on his back and groaned as he felt a surprising weight on his stomach. He arched his neck to look at what the weight was and to his surprise and confusion it was a Deino, one of the Hydreigon's children.

The young noble did the best he could to sit up with the Deino on his lap and looked at the adult dragon for answers. There was intention in its eyes, and he understood what it meant.

Basil held his left arm out for the young dragon not to protect himself, but as an offering. It hurt like hell. Teeth broke through skin and went deep into his forearm and yet, Basil maintained a smile through grit teeth. "That's how you become familiar with your surroundings, right?" He asked gently. It was blind, so Basil figured that's how Deino familiarized itself with its environment. It was not something he could hold against the little fella.

Well, this was the final stretch.

"You know, I'm going to be going to many places. It's going to be a challenge, but I can promise you that it won't be boring. There will be many people and Pokemon to meet and battle, plenty of tasty food, and plenty of adventure. So why not come with me? You'll have plenty of stories to share when you're big and strong just like your mother if you do." Basil knew that it could not see him smile, but he was doing his best to convey it through his tone.

For the briefest moment, he thought that he had gotten through the Hydreigon. That was until it had opened its mouth and he stared down the maw of a dragon charging with swirling energy to send him to Kingdom Come. He had forgotten what kind of creature he was dealing with.

Crap, Basil thought to himself.

His mind went into overdrive. There was not enough time to run, he was too close to make any considerable headway before it unleashed its attack. If he moved a muscle, then it would've been over in that instant and yet, there was something telling Basil to not run. Obviously, it was not his sense of reason because that told him to find the safest way to survive. It was a gut feeling, something that told him to not show weakness in front of the dragon. He had to stand up to it. This thing preyed on his fear, expecting Basil to give in. He had to call its bluff.

Basil stared down the Hydreigon with that same glare that she gave him. Well, it was more akin to that of his own father than the dragon and to be honest, he scared him more. "Do you expect me to run? To beg you for mercy?" He asked coldly. "Come on, shoot me. I bloody dare you."

This was and probably will forever be the worst idea he's ever had.

@PlatinumSkink




There was a fine line between bravery and stupidity, and Basil tap danced all over it. He knew what he was doing was completely absurd; it was a miracle that he was not reduced to atoms the instant that it woke up. The young noble could hear his heart trying to jump out of his chest. Could the Hydreigon hear it too? It probably could. He had the dragon's full attention, its cold gaze pierced through him. There was not a chance that he could get away now, not after he woke up the sleeping beast. Fear gripped him tightly and yet, he put up a strong front. Basil never broke eye contact with it because if he was going to die then at least he would look at it in the face.

Something told him that he only had one chance. Better make it count. He cleared his throat as if he was trying to clear out a potential scream. "My apologies for my rudeness. I woke you up and demanded to speak with you without even introducing myself. My name is Basil Rivens, a Pokemon Trainer. Ms. Lesley brought me here after I asked her to," he explained to the Hydreigon. Basil made sure to watch its body language for any sign of aggravation. The last thing he wanted was to test the patience of something classified as the Brutal Pokemon. Quickly, the noble followed up. "I'm not going to insult your intelligence. You've probably figured out why she brought me here, but I promise I mean no harm to you or your children. All I seek is your permission to ask your kids if any one of them would like to join me on my journey."

Basil's hands balled up and he could feel his nails dig into his skin. It was all he could do to keep himself from shaking like a Whismur. Maybe the Hydreigon knew already. "But I understand that you don't trust me. We humans really haven't had a good track record with dragon-types, have we? You probably were around for it, what Team Amethyst did. You witnessed it all, and you hate them and the others who were just as culpable." There was a slight pause. Something swelled inside of him.

"I hate them too," he said with a firm anger. It was hard for him not to be considering the island was a testament to the greed of men. It wasn't just a fire in his eyes, but the desire to rip and tear everything. "I hate what they did the region, to its Pokemon, and I hate that there are those who still have yet to have been punished for their hand in the destruction they brought. And yet, it is a legacy that we have no choice, but to inherit as a noble and I have to live with that guilt. Coming to this island has only reinforced that, but it reinforced something else."

Basil finally returned its glare with his own. He didn't even know why he was venting at this thing. Maybe because it was essentially a stranger and that made it easier to talk or maybe a possible near-death experience just made him not really care anymore. "I need to be better. That's why I'm even on this journey. Coward as I am, I will be better, and I will be a trainer that can make things right. You can bet on it."

Well, now that overly long tirade was done. Basil continued to hold his ground with the dragon though it was self-evident that he was no longer afraid of it considering he stared it down in the most intense staring contest he's ever had.

@Lunarlord34@Joshua Tamashii

Well, turned out that everyone could learn about things from books or the internet. Who knew?
 
The strange old man looked at the owner of the fish shop. "Hey Bo, ya got any of those tourist maps for this area? The ones you give to people looking for spots to fish. Can I borrow one? And a pen?"

"Uh, yeah sure. I've got some in the back. Give me a minute" After a bit of rummaging around in some back cabinets, Bo came back with a map in one of those traveling pamphlets one would find in a shop like this, designed to look old and faded even though the edges were as sharp as a knife and a pen. He spread it along the counter for all to see. For something that was free to tourists, it was actually quite a decent map of the known fishing spots from all over the region. Keyword, known fishing spots, but there would have been another time for an actual deep dive because Bary had commandeered the map and marked the location of where he saw the crack in the sky.



"It was there, by Vastille on Route 5. Ya can keep the map since you were so curious." Bary rolled up the map and handed it off to Steph.

Steph received a fishing map!


Bo, unsure of what else to say, said, "Well, good luck to you kids. Can I get you anything else before you go?"

Old Rod: 500P
Good Rod: 5000P
Super Rod: 7500P
Bait: 250
Good Bait: 750
Superb Bait: 1000


If not, now what?






@samreaper

Ramos hardily laughed with approval and said, "That's the spirit! Now, I hope yer ready because just like these plants, my Pokemon and I are made of sturdy stuff! Now, may you do the honors Louis?"

Louis grumbled some words to himself, nothing that anyone else would be able to hear, but one would correctly assume that they were the complaints. "Alright fine," he said and pulled out two different handkerchiefs from his pocket that would serve to indicate which side was which. Don't ask why he had two, he just did. "This is a three vs three battle between Tristan and Ramos. The first one to run out of Pokemon or to surrender loses! Now, begin!"

Tristan would watch as Ramos grabbed a Pokeball from his tool belt and threw it into the air. "Yer up, Skiddo!" A beam of white light erupted from the ball and materialized in this rather adorable goat like Pokemon with a pelt of leaves and brown and white fur. It bleated out with excitement as it stood ready for battle.


#672 Skiddo, the Mount Pokemon. As long as it has sunlight and water, Skiddo can make energy with the leaves on its body, allowing it to live on rocky mountains barren of food. Until recently, people living in the mountains would ride on the back of these Pokémon to traverse the mountain paths.


There was something else though; the Skiddo's leafy pelt was glowing green. Tristan's Pokedex popped up with another message.

Flower power! The garden's terrain has activated Skiddo's Grassy Pelt. Its defense stat has increased by 50%.

What does Tristan do?


@Sanguine Rose

Leaf and whimsical winds clashed, and the leaves broke through and smashed against the Tinkatink, which caused it to skid back. Luckily, Rowlet's physical attack stat was much higher than a Tinkatink's special attack stat so each collision would end in Tillia's favor though the damage done wasn't significant. However, the Tinkatink was a quick Pokemon and used its speed to run up the wall and then leapt straight towards Rowlet in the air to attempt to bring its club down on the leafy owl, except that had not happened.

"Tink!" The Tinkatink that Faye convinced to stand down leapt up and smacked its friend down with its club to help Tilia.

Meanwhile, the Tinkatink kept flailing about like a deranged Makigarp, swinging its club about with reckless abandon. Luckily, Growl indeed lowered the fairy-type's attack stat because when Sage went to tackle it he got smacked in the face with a metal club though if Sage tried again the Eevee would not only hit the Tinkatink, but it was a critical hit. The Tinkatink was sent tumbling back out the door of the farm.

What does Faye do?


@CitrusArms

"Gas!" The Gastly looked at her with the most offended of expressions. Just because it was a ghost or had the properties of a ghost did not mean it knew every undead being around. Not all ghosts knew each other! How rude! How uncouth! Gastly had never heard such abhorrent stereotypes in all of its time being alive(?). Except the purple gassy ball then nodded that it actually did know indeed where the cold and most likely very skeletal remains were buried.

"Gastly!" It bobbled in the air as if to tell her to follow it and since she asked, it was safe to assume that she would follow it through the graveyard. It would have been an uneventful stroll; an eerie silence hung in the night air, which very understandable. After all, the dead were not great conversationalists.

There was something strange off in the distance, a pair flickering lights moved around followed by shifty movement of two shadowy figures. They weren't particularly good at being sneaky though because Stella could here not very hushed whispers of two men. Like, seriously for a pair that tried to be stealthy they were absolutely awful at keeping their indoor voices. It was a wonder how the grave keeper did not hear it from their shack.

"Hey, we got the right grave?" One of them asked with a weaselly, nasally sort of voice.

The other responded like a gruff lug, "Yeah, dis duh right one. Duh dead biddy was buried with a while bunch'a jewelry. By the end of the night, we'll be rich men."

Luckily, they had not heard Stella's footsteps.

What does Stella do?


@Zarkun

The only thing that Helga could do was look at Jason with complete bewilderment before it molded into her own outrage. Her body almost seemed to physically swell in anger. "You really think it's about that? I'm trying to tell you to stop and think before you get yourself killed! About making a difference? Of all the... Why are you so much like hi-?!" She had cut herself off when she realized what she was about to say. Helga was no longer really looking at Jason. She was looking in his general direction, but she wasn't there. All that there was on her face wasn't shock per se, but what she was about to evidently caught her off guard and it shook her.

When she finally came back to reality she shakily said, "I'm going to wait outside." The titan of a woman walked out of the room; her steps echoed in the silence before they faded off into the background.

Celebi sighed with a look of understanding. "Forgive her, Jason. Grief undoes us all," it said vaguely though it was not its story to tell. "We have more pressing matters. Jason, hold out your hand."

Once Jason did what he was told, Celebi floated down and used both of its hands to grab his. Green light radiated from its tiny palms and wrapped and twisted around his wrist until the light scattered into dust to reveal a bracelet made of intertwining branches though they were smooth and cold to the touch like metal. A green diamond with an ethereal shine was held in place between the branches. Jason could feel a power pulsating from the gem as if it was syncing with own heartbeat.

Jason received the Shard of Time!
Jason received Time Flute Piece!


The forest deity removed its hands from Jason and hovered back. "That will allow me to contact you throughout the region and help guide you when I can. However, it has another ability; it will allow you to borrow a little of my power to look into the past so to speak though it only has enough of a charge for twice a day. Be sure to use it wisely," said Celebi.

"Your first order is to become stronger, so continue your journey as you were. When you are ready, I will call upon your aid. Now, I'm sure you have many questions, but I cannot stay for much longer. I feel something is pulling me back. If you have anything to ask, ask now."

You only have time for one question. What do you ask?

Also, hopefully Jason remembered the original reason why he was there. It would be pretty awkward otherwise.

"Whoa," was all Basil said in awe of the two dragons that clashed, standing among their pre-evolved forms. How many people in Isson could say they witnessed two wild dragons duking it out over some territory? It was an amazing sight and just this alone would have made a visit to the island worth it under other circumstances, but that was not what he was there for. Still, he took a photo with his Pokedex of the duel for drawing reference later and maybe make it the background of his Pokedex if it had that function.

Eventually he did pull himself away from the dragon-on-dragon turf war and began to walk around the cave again. "Alright Basil stay fo- Whoa!" Basil side stepped out of the way of some low flying Druddigon. "Forget staying focused. Just don't lose your head."

He glanced around as he walked along the cave. Those walls were really covered in gash and claw marks. Again, Basil took pictures though it was the walls. Maybe the professor would have appreciated photographic data of Pokemon behavior? Or he was just wasting space on the Pokedex? Anyway, there was something quite off that Basil noticed when he walked around the cave; all the other tunnels had Pokemon going in and out, except one. They made an active effort of staying as far as possible.

Basil commented to himself, "Weird." His curiosity was simply too strong, despite logic dictating that this was a bad idea. Basil made his way over to the tunnel but was stopped by an Axew. Fear filled its bulbous eyes as it tried to steer him away from whatever was inside. What in the world could be so scary that other dragons are afraid? The young noble thought to himself. He peeked past the corner and well, he found a mother alright. Basil held up his Pokedex and found the entry of the three headed goliath that relaxed in the cavern.

Pokédex Entry #635 – Hydreigon, the Brutal Pokémon. Only the middle head has a brain, but it eats and attacks using all three. It is highly intelligent, yet highly prone to violence. It sees anything that moves as an opponent and attacks, so the solution to surviving a wild encounter is staying very still. People of the past thought of it as evil incarnate


A shiver ran down his spine. He stared at the device's entry silently before he chuckled dryly, "I must be losing my mind. I'm actually considering it." Basil knew that it wasn't foolhardy, it was downright suicidal. The smart thing would have been to walk away, find a different dragon mother, or just leave the island. Every fiber in his being screamed at him to make the smart decision

He smiled and knelt down to pat the Axew on the head gently, if it allowed it. "I appreciate the concern, but I can't turn back. You see, if I walk away then I just prove myself right that I am a coward. Maybe I still am, but I refuse to be ruled by my hesitations. Hesitation is death." He straightened up and looked dead ahead with an icy gaze. "Besides, what's waiting at home scares me more than this thing ever could."

Basil briefly looked down to see if the Axew was going to follow him or not. It probably wasn't because it probably had a better sense of self-preservation than him. Regardless, he would proceed to enter the tunnel. "Hesitation is death," Basil reiterated under his breath. The moment he stepped in the Hydreigon's lair, he most definitely alerted it to his presence.

He would walk as far as the creature would allow him to and looked it directly in the eyes, never taking his attention away from it for a moment. "Hydreigon, I've come to speak to you," said Basil cooly and with conviction. It was all he had. There wasn't a plan. There were no bardic tones or contest of battle prowess. This was just a talk between him and the Brutal Pokemon.

@Ogo@TheNoCoKid

Isaiha looked at his phone to find that there was still no new message. She would not have felt hurt by this, would she? Surely, she laughed until she her sides split. He didn't do anything wrong, right? Then why did it feel like he messed up? He stared at his phone awaiting a message from Kaori with a weird intensity until he shoved it back into his pocket. "Why am I getting so worked up over that gremlin?" Isaiha asked himself with suspiciously warm cheeks.

Cinder though stared at his trainer for being the dumbass that he truly was. This trainer was one of the most intelligent people in the region, personally selected by one of the most prestigious university programs in the world, an incredibly competent trainer, and yet somehow the Chimchar watched Isaiha make the greatest fumble that it in its admittedly short life.

The fire ape looked both disappointed and disgusted by the sheer cowardice of Isaiha. "Chim, chim char. Chim chim!" Chastised a very annoyed Cinder.

With hot cheeks Isaiha protested, "I did not wuss out!" He glared at the Chimchar who in turn returned a gaze of absolutely being sick of Isaiha's shit. Isaiha sighed heavily and ruffled his Chimchar's tuft of fur on its head. "We're just friends, that's it. There's no need to make it any more awkward." He smiled softly at the Chimchar as if this was a fact to be accepted and yet, it felt like there was a hand that gripped his shoulder tightly, an anxiety that lurked behind him.

It whispered ever so intrusively in his ear, "Besides, why should she want a loser who ran away from everything?"

Isaiha shook his head as if to shake the unwelcomed thoughts and continued on his way to the main hall. Eventually he would find himself in the main building of the campus. Technically he had no reason to be there yet; his first class would not start for a little bit, but he wanted to get there early enough to be able to make a good impression on the lecturer. Well, it was to be expected to be there on time, but it was still worth the try!

He walked around looking for the lab or lecture hall that he would need to find for class until he saw two familiar figures down the hall: the ever-messy looking Jason Yew with an uncharacteristically clean lab coat talking to some shortie in a trucker hat. Wait...

Oh shit. That was Kaori.

This was way too awkward for Isaiha. He did not even know what to say to her. What could he even say to her? Yeah, no, he was just going to walk away and hide at school cafeteria until it was time for class. Well, that was what he was going to do, except Cinder instantly leapt off his shoulder and Kaori would soon feel the weight of the Chimchar crawling up from her leg to her shoulder.

"Chim!" It greeted quite happily before shooting a mischievous look at Isaiha.

"Et tu Cinder," thought Isaiha before he cleared his throat awkwardly. "Alola Jason, Riri." God he just wanted to hide.

Meanwhile, Cinder would eventually climb down her and approach Kaori's Pokemon. "Chim, chim chim char?" Roughly translated it went like this, "So, was your trainer a blushing idiot too or was it just mine?"
