Hey, can you help me?

Maybe. What do you want?
Also, who are you? And why do you type in evil?
-Ever continues proceeding along the path, until he arrives at-
Ancient Poni Path
Ever: Ooh, lots of forks in the road. That one looks green, maybe there's a meadow that way.
???: <Hold it.>
-Ever and Muninn turn to see a Gumshoos-
Ever: ...The resemblance really is uncanny.
Muninn: <Yes...>
Gumshoos: <Please remain there for five minutes. My prey will be by shortly, and I don't want you startling it.>
Ever: If it's not going to be here for five minutes, wouldn't it be easier for me to move now?
Gumshoos: <I don't follow.>
Ever: ...Well, good luck.
-he proceeds forwards-
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.
-Ever would receive a selfie of a Kingler wearing a Crustle Shell he would probably remember as having pestered him to challenge Gyms until he challenged the Snowpoint Gym with said Kingler-
That jog your memory?

Ancient Poni Path
Yes, and if you could come by and snap my neck that'd be great.
-Ever is so engrossed in his texting that he doesn't notice that he's walking straight into someone standing at the entrance to Poni Grove-
Guard: Hey, you can't go here unless you've beaten the Island Challenge, or at least could beat it if you wanted to.
Ever: I mean, I definitely could. Can I get by?
Guard: With a Sceptile, a baby Mimikyu—
Muninn: <Hey!>
Guard: —and a novice Oricorio? Absolutely not.
Ever: I've beaten other leagues, you know.
Guard: That's what they all say. Come back when you can prove it.
Ever: Aaaaaaagh.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.
I mean, I'm not much of a neck snapper myself. I'd be more comfortable with pressuring other peoplemons to snap your neck instead.
Granted, I get the feeling that'd be a lot less fulfilling than pressuring people to challenge Gyms or doing so myself, neither of which I can do here.

Do my feelings mean nothing to you?
Ever: Hmm, maybe we can get around that guy....let's try this way.
-and he heads into-
Vast Poni Canyon
Ever: ...Whoa. Intense.
Narrow: <I don't feel so good...>
Muninn: <The canyon has magnetic properties. You should probably recall the bird.>
-Ever does so-
Ever: Come on, it can't be too far...
???: <Hold it!>
Ever: Oh Zekrom, not another one.
-however, looking around, he can't find another Gumshoos-
???: <Down here!>
-Ever looks down-
-and finds a small, quadrupedal lizard blocking his way-
???: <Don't take another step!>

-Soujin is sniffed by the Turtonator-
Soujin: -to Mine Turtle- "Curious, huh?"
-to Alli- "Yeah, hoping to make some memories that way."
Fine, if it'll make you happy.

-A sound would come from somewhere, most likely Ever's Phone-
Vanitas: < Snaaaaaap his neeeeeeeeeck! >

-This time, Nora is the one who goes down.-
Nora: <Oww...>
Rose: You did what you needed to. Domino, we've got this!
Domino: <All right. So what's the plan?>
Rose: If we finish off the Totem, the rest will be a lot easier. Hit it with an Aerial Ace!
Domino: <Right, got it.>
-He sweeps forward toward the Gumshoos, doing a similar upward-then-downward attack that he did before.-
-Gus, meanwhile, is bitten, but shakes the Rattata off.-
Scarlette: Um, what she said! Attack the Gumshoos instead of the others!
Gus: <Okay!>
-He gets away from the Rattata to Bite the Gumshoos as well-

Sergey nodded, quickly drinking the rest of his cocoa and then waiting for Shaun to do so as well, after that he'd go to Nurse Joy.
Sergey: "Hello."
Nurse Joy: "Hello there, how may I help you?"
Sergey: "We would both like to apply some Pokémon for a private riding license."
He showed Mistral

Ever: ...What.
Jangmo-o: <...What.>
-pause-
Jangmo-o: <Anyway, you can't come this way. There's a Trial there.>
Ever: A what?
Jangmo-o: <The Kommo-o in charge of the canyon challenges the people who come to face them.>
Ever: So I'm just going to pretend that I understand you, and ask if you work for this trial.
Jangmo-o: <I applied! But they wouldn't take me...because they said I wasn't smart enough.>
Muninn: <Imagine that.>
Ever: Be nice.
-he turns to the Jangmo-o-
Ever: So what are you doing...?
Jangmo-o: <Keeping you out of the trial area.>
Ever: ...Why?
-pause-
Jangmo-o: <It makes me feel important...>
Muninn: <And yet.>
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.
-With the attacks, the Gumshoos goes down-
Yungoos: <...Looks like it's down to us, then.>
Rattata: <Don't think you've won yet!>
-He launches a Quick Attack at Gus-
Yungoos: <Guess I'll do this, then.>
-She jumps at Gus with a Bite-
Soujin: -to Locke- "I... feel like that'd be a good thing, but you're saying it like it might not be."
-as he is nuzzled by Mine Turtle- "You're pretty affectionate, huh?"
Vanitas: < I understand your feelings, dear dragon. >

-Being ganged up on does some significant damage to Gus, but he hangs in there.-
Gus: <Ow!>
Scarlette: Focus on the Yungoos this time!
-Gus Bites the Yungoos.-
Rose: Domino, get the Rattata off of Gus with Fury Attack!
-Domino flies over to the Rattata and starts rapidly pecking it to get it to back off of Gus.-

-And with the two attacks, the Yungoos and Rattata go down-
Raticate: <Ngh... have to give it to you... you did well.>
Gumshoos: <Yeah, go... take the crystals from the pedestal.>
-The two gesture at the pedestal weakly-
Soujin: "Hm, well, hopefully my experience is more u-"
-His hand is bitten down on-

Scarlette: Phew... we did it.
Rose: Heck yeah we did.
-Oddly, Scarlette doesn't immediately go to the pedestal. Rose, however, does, then looks back at her.-
Rose: Oh, right, the, er, Gumshoos said we could claim these. Here, I'll get it for you while I'm over here.
-She takes the two crystals, then walks back toward Scarlette and slips one into her hand.-
Rose: There you go! One trial out of the way!
Scarlette: Uh-huh...
Rose: ...You, uh, okay?
Scarlette: Huh? O-oh, yeah, I'm fine! Don't worry. Th-thank you, for, uh, getting the crystal. For me. Right...
-Rose smiles-
Rose: C'mon, it's been a long bunch of battles. Let's get some rest.
-They head out of the cave together.-

Shaun summoned Tsunami and Ace from their Poke Balls and presented them to Nurse Joy. "I'll need one for flying and one for aquatic travel.

After a bit of checking Nurse Joy handed both of them the licenses for their respective Pokémon.
Nurse Joy: "There you go, please remember that these are only for those Pokémon, if you want to ride another of your Pokémon you have to apply for another license. Regardless, have a nice day." :)

He returned his Pokemon to their Poke Balls. "Well, we should get some sleep. I think tommorow I'll head back to Hau'oli City. I need to buy a new phone."

-Soujin looks at the hand Mine Turtle left after she let go-
Soujin: "I dunno... hopefully it doesn't become a thing for them."

Sergey: "That seems good, I will likely stay here for a while longer, if you search me: My camp is near Route 1, its hard to miss" :) "Goodbye for now though."

Ever: Nope, not here.
-some Exeggcute bounce past-
Ever: Aww, Exeggcute. It's been forever since I saw those.
Muninn: <It's the Exeggutor you have to watch out for.>
Ever: Really? Why's— ow!
-this exclamation owes itself to the fact that Ever just ran into a palm tree-
Ever: When did this get here?
Muninn: <I suggest you look up.>
-he does...-
Ever: ....What.
Exeggutor: -walks by without even noticing Ever-
Ever: ...They grow really big here.
Muninn: <Actually, they just grow small everywhere else.>
-as the Exeggutor passes, the head on its tail blows a raspberry at Ever-
Muninn: <They are Dragon-types, incidentally.>
Ever: ...What.
