Current To those I RP with, I haven't dropped off of the face of the earth, just had a mental health crash but am recovering. Now to catch up on posting.

The worst thing about mental illness is you have to look after yourself a disgusting amount. I know it's the only way to actually be in a fit state to look out for others, but it still feels wrong.

Emeth: Then I'll be that friend who's the opposite kind of annoying, whispering "Do it, you know you want to..."

Judging by the Internet's definitions of introversion and extraversion, you'd think everyone's either an extreme hermit or a party animal with no in between.

Bio

A frazzled British thirtysomething cat mum with something of a tea addiction.

I like a wide range of RP genres, but have two absolute favourites: Pokemon and magical girls. (If someone manages to combine the two, I'll be VERY happy!) I post fairly regularly, but sometimes shit mental health days crop up - if that causes any delays, I'll try to resume posting ASAP.

New Location!!!


Name: Greenhaven
Location Type: Village
Pokemon Types: Rock, Ground, Steel, Psychic, Fighting, Fire, Grass, Dark, Flying, Dragon
Lore:
At the foot of Tefan Mountains, also accessible from Central and Feyhollow, is a vast desert, filled with a variety of Pokemon adapted to its environment.

Rock, Ground and Steel types thrive especially well here, unaffected by the violent sandstorms. Fighting and Psychic types test their respective physical and mental endurance in the harsh conditions, Dark types rely on their wits to survive, and Fire Pokemon are able to withstand the heat of daytime as well as warm themselves during the cold nights. When the sand dies down, Flying types emerge from caves, particularly Sigilyphs who repeatedly follow the same path. There's even the occasional sighting of dragons; glimpses of Gibles' fins in the sand and the haunting sound of Flygon's song have been reported.

The climate and wildlife make the desert a dangerous place for the unwary traveller, but those who persevere will reach the oasis village at its heart, Greenhaven. This place of natural beauty surrounding a spring is home to Grass types such as Exeggcute, Exeggutor and Maractus, and supports a small human community who make use of the water supply to grow crops.

The village hosts a shrine to the deity believed to have created this fertile and habitable spot in the otherwise arid environment. Landorus, the guardian of the fields. Another legend, however, tells of a being less welcoming of humans. It is considered extremely unlucky to mistreat a Pokemon in or around Greenhaven, with the protective Terrakion roaming the desert. A fierce battler who once assisted in a war against humans for the sake of Pokemon, this being is said to keep a watchful eye over the area.

A third story brings people to the area in the hope of encountering a much sought-after Pokemon. Thought to appear once every thousand years, Jirachi is known for its ability to grant any wish people desire, although its presence remains a rumour, as of yet unproven.


Greenhaven Poke Mart

A small stone building, plain yet cosy, frequented by the skilled and above trainers most likely to travel through the desert.




Greenhaven Mission Board

In the middle of the village is a large board, its location catching the attention of trainers stopping by the mart and Pokemon centre. The requests pinned to it usually call for trainers of at least skilled rank, willing to venture into Greenhaven's hostile surroundings.




Whose turn is it to post?
✿ Florence Hadley ✿

Location: Feyhollow Town

@Dusksong

Florence gave a small nod. "Yeah, let's try that first." With shuffling footsteps, she followed the other two, checking around to make sure everyone was alright, cradling Bonica. She hoped she hadn't made the little bud Pokemon too tired, or too distressed. "And don't worry, I'm fine."

Her shoulders drooped, and her eyelids felt heavy. If she was going to help the other two find the final Cutiefly, she'd have to keep her energy levels up, but the thought of eating any of the sweets made her feel sick. It had to be done, she told herself. That terrified buzzing, though, remained in the back of her mind.

She had to try not to dwell on it. To avoid any repeats of such an incident, she'd have to become a better trainer. Stopping by the mart as Ella did, Florence purchased two Rare Candies, two Pokeballs, and a Potion, talking to the woman at the till in a mumble. She placed Bonica on the floor next to Vernie as she put away the new items.

"He used Aromatherapy," she whispered. "It cures effects like paralysis." Her voice dropped even lower. "He used it several times."

Ella winced as understanding dawned. "We once had to knock out a Skuntank who wouldn't calm down," she said, putting her hand on Florence's shoulder. "It's really not easy. But think about it this way! At least you helped the Cutiefly get home."

She hoped her smile was a reassuring one, that hid her guilt. If she hadn't scared the Cutiefly in the first place, Florence wouldn't have had to do that.

After putting away a newly-bought Pokeball and bundle of Rare Candies, she swung her bag back onto her shoulder, and staggered. The room blurred and lurched. She held onto a shelf, knocking over a potion, which sent several others toppling like dominoes and clattering to the floor.

"Ah! Sorry! I'll get those!" As she leaned down, her surroundings spun again. She hadn't had enough rest since the encounter with Darkrai. Florence immediately started gathering up the potions, asking her if she was alright. Nodding, Ella wobbled to her feet.

"Yeah, I'll be fine once I've had some more Pollen Puffs," she said, lifting her head and straightening her back, pretending to perk up. "So! On to the next park?"

"Tibert." The shadowed beach lit up for a second as Jason let out the Espurr. "You picking up on anything unusual?"

The cat glanced from side to side, then shook his head. Walking along the sand with the three Pokemon at his side, Jason turned his head at a glimpse of movement. Two Krabbys skittered away from him as fast as they could.

"Aw, c'mon, I'm not that scary," he laughed, although something darkened his expression as he watched them disappear into the foaming waves. "Yeesh, I wonder how long the Pokemon around here are gonna be freaking out for..."

With a sigh, he sat down on a rock. "If only there was some way to help them calm down." Even if he did confirm the presence of Lunala, there was no way a child could be brought here right now, especially one who'd had a bad experience with some hostile Pokemon. And what exactly had been going on with Darkrai, anyway?

Iliana climbed up, nuzzling his hand. At the touch of warm fur, Jason gave a small smile, tickling the Vulpix behind her ears.

He looked over at a sudden, intrigued "Purr?". Tibert stood fixated on something in the distance. "Tibs, what is it?" Standing up, Jason followed the Espurr until odd lights came into view. Red, yellow, green, pulsing as they rose towards the sky.

As Jason drew closer, the source of the lights became apparent. A group of Elgyems, pointing upwards, travelling together into the darkness. A species still surrounded with mystery, seemingly from another world, like Lunala - and, being Psychic types, maybe they'd know something about the activity here?

Following, Jason noticed he wasn't the only one whose attention the extraterrestrial Pokemon had caught. "Hey again," he said to Charlotte. "Do you know anything about what these Elgyems are doing?"




@Dusksong Ok. I'll have my characters just find the evo stones they need, then, to keep things closer to canon. The replacement item in the mart could be Rose Incense or something like that.

Edit: For some reason I forgot there wasn't even an evolution shard in the mart to begin with! I must have gotten it confused with other marts.
