[color=e04f4f]‘I know,’[/color] Anise said. [color=e04f4f]‘To her, I was just a bystander.’[/color]

She looked a little surprised at Basil’s “partners” line, looking up from having been looking down into the ground and towards him with a slightly raised eyebrow. [color=e04f4f]‘Heh,’[/color] she made a small noise of amusement. [color=e04f4f]‘I suppose we’ll just simply have to see if she throws me out the door.’[/color] 

Then he talked about where to go next. 

[color=e04f4f]‘Hm. I’m not sure I want to go ask for favors until I’ve trained my Pokémon. I must make sure I am ready for the encounter, when it is time. So perhaps Cooldome City would be good. I also feel that perhaps, since my goal now is to become stronger, challenging the gyms is a natural continuation. I do know there’s a Pokémon Gym in both Freecape Town, Raremine Town… and here. Albeit, I saw that giant Lilligant. I am not sure if we’re its match,’[/color] she commented. Then the part about the herb store. Anise looked a little curious. [color=e04f4f]‘I’m fine with that.’[/color]

Then, when they’d arrived in the new area, a much wilder area, Anise merely gave a mock sigh at Basil’s excuse. [color=e04f4f]‘I clearly did the right thing, following. Still, I suppose it is pretty,’[/color] she nodded. At suggesting helping the Jumpluffs, Anise nodded.

[color=e04f4f]‘Alright,’[/color] she said, and cast out another Pokéball, and another Pokémon joined Meditite before her.

[color=6ecff6][i]Pokédex Entry #656 – Froakie, the Bubble Frog Pokémon. It secretes flexible and delicate bubbles from its chest and back which absorb damage that would otherwise damage it. While it is known for a happy-go-lucky attitude, it has astute awareness of its surroundings.[/i][/color][/center]

[color=e04f4f]‘Froakie, Meditite. Climb the trees. We’re helping the Jumpluffs get free. Cooperate with Crocus and Glory,’[/color] she said, gesturing to Basil’s Pokémon.

[color=9facd8]‘Juuump!’[/color] called a happy Jumpluff in reply. It should be noted that, despite being stuck, the Jumpluffs were all smiles. Still, through united effort, Glory cutting some vines, Crocus using his own vines to pull them loose, Meditite using some psychic power to remove obstacles and Froakie using some frog-hands to help pull them free. With their united help…

The Jumpluffs came loose. They gently drifted to the forest floor, avoiding the flowers. Being constantly all smiles, they called. [color=9facd8]‘Fluuff!’[/color] as they then floated up into the air again, drifting off into various directions in the forest, looking all happy… and one of them drifted immediately into another mess of vines and got tangled. [color=9facd8]Luff?’[/color] it asked.

A childish little laughter came as one boy, that had apparently been watching them, approached. Basil, of course, had seen this boy before, very recently.

[color=2fbdb6]‘The Jumpluffs here get stuck all the time. They like hanging out with their various friends here, but this forest really isn’t suited for their flying needs. Buuut, they’re strong enough that they can free themselves whenever they waaant~’[/color] the boy said, smiling.

[color=2fbdb6]‘Buuut, they recognize when someone wants to help them, and they accept your kindness! As do I, so as a thanks for your help, I’d like to give you these!’[/color] he said, and handed something to both Basil and Anise.

[center][color=6ecff6][i]Basil obtained TM130 Mega Drain![/i][/color][/center]

[color=e04f4f]‘Um, thank you,’[/color] Anise said, frowning just the slightest. If Basil took a close look, looks like she got the TM115: Bullet Seed.

[color=2fbdb6]‘I hope you’ll continue to be kiiind~’[/color] he spread his arms, then turned around with the intention to dash back into the forest…

What does Basil do?

Perhaps once upon a time people had a settlement here. Regardless, it was a long time ago and now nature had reclaimed this place many times over. A pathway can be taken past ancient rocks, but here stands even more ancient trees. Like in Stillwood Village, the trees cover up the overhead so little light comes through, but there is enough light to see. The place is thick with trees, ruins, moss and rocks. Navigating can be a challenge, but fortunately the forest here is not particularly deep. However, the inexperienced would be advised against trying to engage any of the Pokémon around here… and to perhaps bring a gas-mask, because the air is so thick with pollen that some people might have trouble breathing.[/hider]

[hider=Suggestions to actions]1. Search the area. [i]Maybe find a Pokémon that isn’t immediately obvious, look for items or inspect the ruins for interesting things?[/i]
2. Train Pokémon. [i]Just be aware that most things here can probably eat you alive.[/i]
3. Specify. [i]If you specify what you want to do, the GM will take it into account and tell the result.[/i]
4. Trigger random event. [i]Force the GM to use his imagination to make a scenario for you.[/i]
5. Archie. [i]The Gym Leader of Stillwood Village is now right in front of you, intending on dashing away.[/i]
6. Area Specific: Last Area. [i]This ancient forest isn’t particularly deep. You could get to the end in moments if you ignore everything else. Question is, what’s there?[/i][/hider]
