Dunsparce Cloud
PEFE!Every: ...Are we in Sinnoh? It's too cold to be anywhere else...
Ever: ...Okay, just because I like letting ghosts possess me....
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.
RNP
-Phoenix, with inhuman speed, dashes towards the hats, browsing FURIOUSLY-
Phoenix: GABE I'D HAVE BELIEVED YOU IF YOU SAID YOU HAD HATS
Meet The New Boss
Shopkeeper: -wheels out a cart draped with vividly-colored merchandise from the back room- ~So this batch just finished drying~
~(It's the batch I dyed with the minerals from that meteor that fell through that breach in reality)~
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?
RNP
-He selects a snazzy, outfit-fitting hat and puts it on.-
Not A Lawyer
Mt. Coronet
Lucius: Yeah, this is way too cold and miserable to be anywhere other than home. Maul, can you teleport us back to the Lanakila Center, please? And not three feet off the ground, or inside a Snorlax, or fifty years in the future or whatever. Just... get us back, okay?
Maul: ~Don't say I never take you anywhere nice.~
There is a blip...
Lanakila Center
...and order is restored.
Lucius: Literally everywhere you take me of your own volition is terrible and wrong. Sorry about that, Every.
Trans rights are human rights. JK Rowling preaches hate. If you sit at a table with five bigots and say nothing, there are now six bigots.
The shrine spoke out, a soft glow coming from it, "BE YOU WORTHY?" it asked.
The Wanderer
-To Ever-
Whatever you say man.
Sue: -To the Haunter- <My... feathers?>
-Looks down at her feather collar, or at least as much as she can-
-To the Haunter-
The de-fossilization process... has it's hiccups. Though I'm surprised I'd find you here, Alola's geologically young.
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.
Dunsparce Cloud
-a bolt of lightning hits the place just vacated by the two-
PEFE!Every: Uh...that's fine. We're back now.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.
High Priestess of Fabulous
Psyche blips out instinctively, once she notices her friends(? Sure, friends.) are no longer there.
"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassin
RNP
-He takes the hat off, and chooses another one, putting it on.-
Flying Colors
Po Town
-A couple Skull Grunts are doing Team Skull things. Mostly pointless vandalism despite there being no threat of law enforcement to stop it from happening.-
Skull Grunt A: Man, is this even really worth it? We're wasting so much spraypaint, bro, the rain's washing half of it away.
Skull Grunt 1: We gotta do it. We gotta.
Skull Grunt A: Bro, you're freakin' me out...

Shaun: "Hell yeah."
"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"
Some Rando
Po Town
Navigating the rainy town - after shoving his phone and headphones into his pocket so they wouldn't get wet - he eventually found a couple of Skull Grunts.
"Yo," he introduced, letting his accent be exaggerated to get into their graces. "The two a' ya know anythin' about a Bug Trial? A lil' Pidgey told meh dat it was held in this joint."
Then he suppressed his accent. "I'm so sorry."

Fwomph
Joyous Forest
Probably!
-Pent shrugs-
Do we need to prove it?
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.
RNP
-Indeed, his ears had for some reason become tiny. He removed the hat, his ears popping back to original size. He walked over to another display and started sifting through hats.-
Phoenix: So why work here, of all places? (And why the fuck do you sell fedoras?)
The Flamebringer
Astolfo has not minded to terribly much.
Masako... more so.
Masako: <If this was the result I shouldn't have complained about the beach...>
Tamamo: "How about.... Here☆"
Tamamo throws open the door to Erstaz Alliance. Possibly again.
And a very chipper foxgirl mostly-human-transformed Ninetails walks into the store.

Blitz: -To Levi- "You did? Then, you weren't always a Kyogre?"
-Beat-
"Oh, right. I can give that a shot, just, ah, text me if I send you to the wrong place?"
-Blitz shifts into a Mew and after a few seconds of concentration ~Blips~ Forte away before shifting back-
"I think I will take some more tea before I go, if that's no trouble"
Eclipse the Moon
Shop Assistant: Oh dear... Prime did you test these at all or did you literally just role them out? -To Pheonix- It pays the bills, and also I've been in the clothes business for a while now. Owned some highly successful ventures in all Mauville related locations~ Mauville, Sea Mauville, New Mauville and Violet City.
But Prime and I decided to re-merge our ventures into one single entity. With alternating days of shop keep and assistant.
Levi rolls over on his vinebag
Levi: Nope. Me, Sandy, Vyv. We're all just some average workin' class schmucks that got forced into this predicament by quarks. Though there was a big gap between when Sandy and I were transmogrified and Vyv was. Plus when Sandy and I emerged we didn't have our memories in tact.
Though we got them both back around two years ago. Sandy in Mauville, me in Sea Mauville. One of these days you might even get to [play] it yourself. Who knows?
Xylander coughs and pours more tea.
Xylander: For reference. Santiago - or "Sandy" - is a Groudon while Vyvyan - or "Vyv" - is a Rayquaza.
Levi: And as I said, all of us average before this forced monification stuff.

Po Town
-The Skull grunts look at Colton, then at each other, then at Colton again.-
Skull Grunt A: ...Bro. Never try that again.
Skull Grunt 1: You want a Bug trial, you gotta go through a couple a' us.
Skull Grunt A: Don't encourage him, dude!

"I regret nothing," Colton remarked. "but I would like to ask. Am I going through you or your 'mons? Meh, who cares. Make your pick.
"Amaterasu!" He called. The Shiny Ninetales materialized and let Drought activate, rain no longer falling as hard as it was. "<Kurae,>" they goaded.

Right in the middle of her gloating, Snowman realizes she has a new customer in her mists - and quickly returns to her human shop assistant form.
Shop Assistant: -In monotone to Pheonix- Hello, welcome to the Ersatz Alliance. We sell a large selection of blue, green and aquamarine clothing, an extensive pink range (ugh) and our black goff section is always popular, though I think some of the articles there may be cursed and damned .
We also have an extensive hat section. All priced at 1000 Pokedollars each to revigorate the hat economy.
Please enjoy shopping at the Ersatz Alliance.
