ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

-Lucario puts a paw on Wulfric's shoulder- Lucario: <It's alright. What level are you at? I'm in the high 60s.>

-Haunter takes it further, slapping his tongue onto Woolly's face again and again, pushing the Ampharos backward-

-Arcanine pauses for a moment to nod at Lake and pant in his face-

-Suddenly discovers Anom beside her and jumps-

Aah! Anom! Don't do that!

- Notices a small wooden platform close to the river -

I guess that is where we're supposed to enter the water from.

- Sends out Crush, he goes into the river and swims over to the platform, I walk onto the platform and climbs onto Crush's back -

-Does the same with Musashi-

-follows on Vaporeon-

- Begins surfing up the river on Crush -

Woolly: <No! Stop! It tickles! AHAHAHA!!!>

-Sol, distracted by Woolly's laughter, briefly glances up from her book.-

Sol: <Woolly, is Haunter bothering you? He's being rather...Rough, right now.>

Woolly: <No, don't worry, it's fine! HAHAHA!!!>

Sol: <...Well...If you insist.>

Wulfric: <I'm quite high in level...I was able to fight against Unova's League Champion, so I don't think my level's the problem...>

Darn it, gotta go.

Hold on, I'm doing something.

-Haunter knocks Woolly to the ground and continues licking her face-

-Lucario taps his foot in puzzlement- Lucario: <Hm...perhaps a lack of confidence? Imagination?>

<Teala: "Oh wow, he's a lot stronger than you, Audrey...">

<Audrey: "He's not that much stronger than I am, Teala! That said... I would have thought that his level would have been closer to mine based off of the Aura techniques that he used...">

<Shaun: "You have to remember that your abilities are beyond those that most Lucario at your level possess...">

<Milo: "Yeah, and your physical abilities are well b-">

-Audrey casts an Aura Sphere at Milo's face, knocking him back into a nearby tree-

<Milo: "Ow...">

<Lardna: "To be fair, you kinda had that coming, Milo...">

-To self-

"When is she ever going to stop being so touchy about that...?"

-Can't help but laugh a little-

Sorry!

-after Skywalker and Qui-Gon take down yet another wild Pokemon Which I am too lazy to look a species up for, I'm about to call them back for a break when Qui-Gon begins to glow. Excited, I kneel down next to him. Skywalker watches from about a foot away, panting slightly-

-After a few moments, the glow surrounding him fades, and Qui-Gon looks around, moving his legs experimentally-

Qui-Gon: <Huh. I evolved.>

Skywalker: <Yeah, well, we've been training all day, I bet I'll evolve too, soon.>

Qui-Gon: <Yeah, I guess. What do you think of this body? A bit bulky and I doubt I can be carried around anymore, but I certainly feel—What's wrong with Crewe?>

-the trainer in question is gaping at Qui-Gon-

Qui-Gon: <... What? Do I have something on my face?>

N-no... It's just... Y-you're talking.

Qui-Gon: <Oh. Yeah. That.>

You haven't spoken since the night you hatched! Well, not to me, at least. Or to Skywalker, I don't think.

Skywalker: <No, he really only talks to Anakin. Right superior about it, too, Anakin. Gets kind of annoying. Yoda says they trade words sometimes, but not real conversations.>

So... why now? Not that I'm upset, or anything.

-Qui-Gon shrugs-

Qui-Gon: <The thought of speaking didn't appeal to me. I was happy with communicating using body language, or talking to my mom with our species's way of communication. But talking out loud wasn't something I felt like doing. I don't have a problem with it now, though.>

Obviously. Anyway, I'm glad you're talking to us now. You don't seem very surprised, Skywalker.

Skywalker: <I figured he'd talk to us sometime anyway.>

Ah. Well, let's take a break for a bit. We can get back to training soon.

-Sol looks up from her book, glaring at Audrey.-

Sol: <DO YOU MIND?! I can't read when you're throwing Mon's into trees like that! So inconsiderate...>

Wulfric: <Well...Maybe it's a bit of both? I'm...I'm rather shy...>

Woolly: <AHAHAHA! Okay! I'll show you!>

-Woolly tries to tickle Haunter.-

Woolly: <HAHAHA! How does that feel?>

- Still surfing up the river, looking around at the nature around us while we're on our way -

-Lucario nods- Lucario: <Hm...well, Aura is fueled by emotions and the willpower of its users. You have to be strong in heart> (here he jabbed Wulfric in the chest) <and in the head> (another jab to his forehead) <if you wish to control it the way I do.>

-Haunter stops for a moment to let Woolly try to tickle him. It does tickle a bit as the Ampharos's hands go through him, but he just grins at her-

-Hearing Sol's shouting-

"Eep. Looks like we should be a little quieter..."

-To Sol-

<Audrey: "WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW?! YOU DON'T EVEN-">

<Shaun: "Audrey, calm down!">

-Audrey begrudgingly quiets down, still seething-

-To Sol-

<Shaun: "I'm really sorry about that, Audrey's normally much more composed than this...">

Almia certainly is lovely.

- Looks over at Wolf -

Yeah, it is.

-the three of us hang out on a large rock, eating lunch-

Qui-Gon: <Where's my mom? I want to tell her I evolved.>

She's probably with Tagg, but I'm not sure where they are. I could call, but they might be busy. Maybe we should wait for them to get back.

-he looks slightly downfallen-

Qui-Gon: <All right. Skywalker, when will you evolve?>

Skywalker: <No idea, but hopefully soon.>

Yeah, it should be pretty soon, Skywalker.

Qui-Gon: -absently eating a poffin while looking around- <What about my brother? I have a brother, right?>

Um... yeah, you do. He's Meddler's Pokemon... Benny, I think.

Qui-Gon: -nods and finished eating, lost in thought-

Wulfric: <Oh...So maybe I need...To be more confident?>

I think that's what he was getting at, yeah.

Wulfric: <...I see...>

Sol: <...It's fine, no harm done. Just...Try not to be so noisy.>

-Sol goes back to reading her book.-

Sol: <"So the king sent two of the princes away, one to a volcano and one to a desert, but let the third prince stay with him." Hmm. Very interesting...>

Woolly: <Huh? Hey! That's not fair! I can't tickle you if you're not solid!>

-Lucario takes up a stance in front of Wulfric- Lucario:: <One factor of our species is that Aura can help us predict the movements of our enemies. Concentrate on trying to do that.>

-Haunter grins and shrugs, then puts his hands on Woolly's shoulders and wraps his tongue around her head-

Back for now.

-Is staying silent-

Sorry, I'm kind of really distracted right now.

It's okay.

-goes back to drawing-

Wulfric: <Um...All right.>

-Wulfric extends his sensors, which begin to glow blue as he tries to predict Lucario's next move.-

Woolly: -Muffled- <Oh no! I can't see!>
