Shaun: "I see."
Ace: "You said you weren't from Sinnoh. Which region then?"
"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"
Wela Volcano Park:
That's something I can do.
Filros: Well, Beldame, would you mind start working on them?
Skotos: <Looks like. Unles it'll be really necessary. So, how do you evolve here?>
Beldame keeps a safe distance, studying her opponent, and decides the safest thing is to start by poisoning them.

Oh, you'd make Toxic pothole with curly braces like {{Toxic}}
Wela Volcano Park
Marowak 1: <When we get strong enough and it's nighttime, pretty much.>
-The other Marowak is struck by the Toxic, becoming badly poisoned-
Marowak A: <Ehehe... don't think you can wait me out!>
-They summon an ethereal bone, which swings at Beldame-

Oh, right, thank you.
Wela Volcano Park:
Beldame gets thrown to the side, spinning on herself, before regaining control.
Beldame: <This hurts... More than it should.>
Skotos: <So I guess you aren't Ground type anymore.>
Beldame: <But this is going to hurt you much more.>
I smile. I know how it goes down. So I just cover my eyes, while she radiates ghostly, purple light and throws her Hex at her opponent.
Wela Volcano Park
Marowak 1: <Nope. Sounds like you might have figured it out, but we're Ghost and Fire types now.>
-The other Marowak is indeed hit hard. They try retaliating with another Shadow Bone, fainting from the poison after using it-

Wela Volcano Park:
Beldame:~They confirm to be Ghost-types.~
We should gather more information about the local mons once this is finished. I've been a bit too careless. Beldame toke bot hits, but that pushed her to her limits.
Filros: Good job, I'm sorry. Would you like to rest?
She nods and I put her back into the ball.
Skotos: <That's not something I've heard before. How does that happen?>
Wela Volcano Park
-The Marowak shrugs-
Marowak: <I dunno. I just evolved like you probably evolved from a... Zorua, right?>
-Kiawe heals the Marowak and said Marowak goes off to rest, another one taking their place for the dancing-
Kiawe: "When the Marowak heard your correct answer, they just had to challenge you to battle."
"At any rate, it is now time for the next dance..."
-The Marowak begin another dance, ending up in this position
-
Kiawe: "Now study carefully... and tell me what the difference is."
-The Marowak dance again ending up in a similar position, but in the empty position is someone who looks like the person on the left
◊ striking an awkward pose-
Kiawe: "Now... can you tell what the difference is?"

Wela Volcano Park:
Skotos: <I didn't change my type. And I didn't have to evolve at night, even if that's a more understandable restriction. I've met several of your species that stayed Ground-type and could evolve at any time of the day, so there must be something causing this difference.>
Filros: Well, it seems like there's that new one, this time.
My hand goes to the third ball. He will have to fight, sooner or later.
Filros: I really hope they won't be so excited they'll have to start a fistfight.

Wela Volcano Park
Marowak: -unmoving from their pose- <Oh, yeah, true. I've seen those Marowak that look more like Cubone.>
<I dunno, though, really. This is just how I'm used to things being.>
Human: "That'd require me knowing how to fistfight, probably..."
"That said..."
Kiawe: "Excellent! Now, go, Breeder!"
Human: "I still need to battle!"
-He sends out a Charmeleon who stretches a bit in preparation-

Cynthia: ~Oh, I'm from Hoenn. It's not that warm in Hoenn, though...~
What's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mold? Even at the center of fire, there is cold All that glitters ain't gold
Wela Volcano Park:
Skotos: <And that makes evolutions so difficult to study. We'll likely need to catch a Cubone ourselves after it's all done. I know they liked you enough that they'd have tried it anyway.>
Filros: Yeah, I like this developement more myself. So, Ifrit, do your best.
Ifrit comes out, a little violet stone around his neck, exhaling a tiny flame.
Filros: You need to gather some speed first. Flame Charge.
Wela Volcano Park
Marowak: <True enough. Hope convincing a Cubone to join your team goes well.>
-The Charmeleon doesn't take too much damage from the Flame Charge-
Charmeleon: <Dunno what you are, but you're definitely a Fire type.>
Human: "They're a Bug type too, try a Fire Fang!"
Charmeleon: <Roger!>
-His teeth ignite and he tries to bite down on Ifrit-

Wela Volcano Park:
"Too"? Did they just answer their pokemon or what?
Ifrit leaves out a small cry as the fangs dig into him.
Filros: Ok, now Double-Team around them.
Wela Volcano Park
-The Charmeleon gets a bit uneasy as the Double Team clones surround him-
Human: "That's the way you're playing, huh?"
"Hazard, Smokescreen all around you."
-The Charmeleon nods and spits out a Smokescreen in the hopes of it spreading and touching all the clones-
-Regardless of whether it's thick enough to lower accuracy due to the spreading, some of it might stick to the real Ifrit-

Filros: You are getting better at it. Ok, now let's have them come out. You know what to do then.

Ifrit takes the second hit, lunging at the same time with the Leech Life for a desperate recovery.

Wela Volcano Park
-The Charmeleon has some of his health sapped, but still seems to be going fine-
Charmeleon: <Heh, that hurt more than I was expecting, but still: Try something I'm not strong to.>
-He attacks with another Fire Fang-

Wela Volcano Park:
Ifrit reaches his limit, and gets knocked out.
Filros: That's all right, you did a good job, you are growing well. Nyneve, do you mind finishing this?
Nyneve: ~Yes, uh, sure, I think I might.~
Filros: Ok, they seem pretty powerful, so let's see how much it hurts them. Foul Play.
Wela Volcano Park
-The Charmeleon nearly gets knocked out by the Foul Play, but manages to hang in there-
Charmeleon: <Heh, well, that's certainly harder... Guess that's near it for me.>
Human: "Well, let's try one last thing... Smokescreen!"
-The Charmeleon nods and spits some smog at Nyneve-

Wela Volcano Park:
Skotos: <Ehy, that's a squid's trick, leave it the them.>
Filros: Ok, don't panic, they did it before, let's see if you can Psychic the smoke to shroud you instead.
Wela Volcano Park
Charmeleon: <Well, dangit.>
Human: "Hrm."
"Try uh... Ember?"
-The Charmeleon gives a somewhat disbelieving look at the human, but spits a flame at the smog cloud-

Wela Volcano Park:
Skotos: <See? That's more like it.>
The fire bursts a hole in the cloud, scorching Nyneve's side. She works swiftly to close it, but that stretches it really thin, making her shilouette visible beneath it and the decoy mostly useless.
Filros: Now finish it, attack from the distance.
Skotos: <Try the thing I taught you.>
She nods, and disk of dark energy, almost as tall as her, forms in front of her.Then, she pushes it with her two white tentacles, quite literally throwing it at the Charmeleon.

-Ever's team has gathered in a circle-
Pleth: <You know, this is my vacation. I don't really have time to babysit.>
Narrow: <This is important, though! Ever's gone missing!>
Cross: <Sweet, party time.>
Custard: <Wh-where'd you get that bottle?>
Estoc: <Can you even get drunk?>
Cross: <I can try!>
Narrow: <Hey!>
All Three: <Huh?>
Narrow: <Look, I know we're all just sets of quirks designed to flesh each other out in an organic way, and it's existentially amusing that none of us care about Ever. But, all of us had goals when we joined this team, right?>
Estoc: <I'm pretty sure I can always just fall back on eating one of you.>
Cross: <Try it!>
Estoc: <...Not you. You're a plant.>
Cross: <Oh, yeah. Do what you want I guess.>
Custard: <You aren't eating anyone.>
Estoc: <What are you going to do about it?>
Custard: <I'm pretty sure I can stop you.>
Estoc: <...Honestly, that's a real fair point.>
Narrow: <HEY!>
Estoc: <Sorry.>
Narrow: <So, here's the plan—>
Pleth: <Oh, where did Muninn go?>
Narrow: <Oh, he's missing too.>
-they shrug-
Meanwhile, elsewhere
-Ever is poring over a book about the fae, holding Muninn like a teddy bear-
Muninn: <You know this is demeaning.>
Ever: Oh, you love it.
Muninn: <What do you even need me here for?>
Ever: I'm hoping you might know something relevant. Plus, every time I let you out of my sight something terrible happens.
Muninn: <That was one time.>
Ever: Wait, what are you talking about?
Muninn: <...What were you talking about?>
Ever: The time you ripped the wing off a Tropius, then weaseled your way onto my team, manipulated them into liking you, broke Pleth's heart, and tried to murder me. What were you talking about?
Muninn: <...Nothing.>
