ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

-"Four of the Honchkrow use protect, while a fifth dives for the first murkrow, but takes a thunder bolt to face, and drops bellow half health"-

Homer, to Lara: Nice hit.

-"The downed honchkrow uses roost"-

Let's all have fun

 Somewhere in Unova 

Wanderer: -Speaking with a Patrat- So, tell me more about these "shadowy things."

Patrat: <Well, my friends and I were just playing around and then suddenly this... hole in the sky appeared and these shadowy things came out and one turned into a Gardevoir and ate them! Nothing we fired at them even started to harm them.>

Wanderer: -Thinking- Definitely a demon. Don't worry, it hasn't been too long so I'm sure your friends are still alive.

-Walking off alongside Judith and Pikachu-

Patrat: -Jumping up and down- <What's some human like you supposed to do?>

Wanderer: -Still walking- Oh, you'll see.

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Celadon

Pippy: -to Lewis- <I'm glad! And I hope Azelf will see us through this day!>

Megan: Okay, hit those guys now now now

-Pippy tries to spray them with the Aqua Ring before launching a freezing Blizzard-

Pippy used Blizzard!

Tripod used Thunder!

Thespi used Thunder!

-all on the ones that just used Protect-

No mind to think. No will to break.

Celadon

It's less wearing it around others. More people actually knowing it's me...

-Now that they're out of the store Pent tries to relax and brighten up a bit-

It's goddamn adorable but I really, really need to keep up appearances...

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Psyche shrugs. ~Marriage is exactly as meaningful as you need it to be. It's neither anything to worry about, nor scoff at, and it is only too early or too late if you feel it is. Don't worry, you're not old, or not moving quick enough in your life. Life goes on regardless.~

-Ever is sitting around, seeming annoyed-

I need a tougher mon than the ones I've got with me until Marmalade gets back...

-he makes a mental run through of options-

I can't take out Spathi until he's done with childcare, so...

Oh joy.

-he withdraws a mon from the PC, and sends out-

Custard: <Hey!>

Ever: Evening, Custard.

Custard: <Do you feel weird at all lately? Like somehow, something really important to you is happening, even though you know everything's fine?>

Ever: ...Um.

-he pats the Kommo-o-

Custard: <Hey, you broke your new arm. ...And you have a new arm.>

Ever: Oh, Custard. Never change.

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Lewis: -consideringly- Hmm. Are they trying to attack that - No, that doesn't make sense. Arkady! Make sure that Murkrow doesn't escape while Riot attacks.

Arkady: <Why meeee> -jumps down and approaches the beaten-up Murkrow cautiously- <You're in a state, aren't you...>

Riot: -uses Moonblast again, on the last Protect-using Honchkrow-

There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

Celadon

Kai: Ahhhh. I can understand that~

-She gives Pent's hair a ruffle again-

Kai: Still! If you ever just want someone to be as cute as you wanna be with, gimme a call. I'll always appreciate it~

Pizza Parlor — Distant Past

Kaito: It's not so much that as just, a reminder that hey these people are adults and do adult things and so am I. Y'know? Not good or bad, it just throws me off sometimes.

Diane: Yeah, I getcha. Heck, I'm still worrying about whether I'm ready or not.

Celadon

Y-yes please~...

-Pent gives a smile and quickly checks the sky-

W-wow it's getting late...

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

~Hey, we all need an adultier adult from time to time.~

"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

Masako and Astolfo are around, possibly near Ever and co.

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

-Jessica and Shaun emerge from Prof. Sycamore's lab, the former beaming and holding a Poké Ball.-

-Oh, something should probably be addressed.-

-Jess isn't wearing her normal dress or her Christmas dress. Rather, she's dressed in an outfit more suited to the life of a trainer.-

-Now, she's dressed in a black t-shirt (upon which are the words Life of the Party), a lightweight red zip-up cotten jacket, blue jeans (under which are her red socks), and red high-top sneakers.-

You would not believe how hard it is to find pants and panties that have tail-holes in them.

I imagine

Jessica: "I'm so excited!"

-Shaun smiles.-

Shaun: "Well, I'm glad. But you should call them out and introduce them. And name them."

Jessica: "Good idea!"

-She flicks the Poké Ball, and out pops a Fennekin - a shiny one, to be precise.-

Jessica: "Hi!"

Fennekin: <Hello, darling.>

Shaun: "Why is your Fennekin British, and what are the odds of her being shiny?"

Fennekin: <My mother was British, and 3 in 2048.>

Shaun: "That's not how accents work."

Fennekin:<Well then, it's a good thing no one asked for your opinion.>

Jessica: "Damn Shaun, I hope you have Burn Heal, because she just burnt you to a crisp."

Beat

Jessica: "I like her!"

Fennekin: <Well, that's wonderful. Now how about a name?>

Jessica: "Mmm...how about Cereza?"

Fennekin Cereza: <I adore it.>

-Lyra's glaring at Naganadel whilst eating a cookie.-

Naganadel: You do not trust me.

-A statement of fact, not a question.-

Lyra: <Why would I?>

Naganadel: You are wise, and yet naive. Do not let your past experiences cloud your judgment for the new ones.

Lyra: <I really don't need advice from you.>

Naganadel: Hmm. Suit yourself.

-He reaches into a bowl of Poké Beans and grabs one with a vine.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Ever: Oh my gosh they've got a little Glaceon hat that's so cute!

-there is suddenly a blue person standing in front of Astolfo-

Ever: Hi!

Custard: <...When I have to be the responsible one, you know things are bad...>

-she chases after Ever to try and pull him away from bothering Astolfo-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Celadon

Kai: Heh, yeah, it is. Anything else you wanted me around for? Or should we go our separate ways?

Pizza Parlor — Past

Kai: Oh, definitely.

Diane: I... think I'm gonna have to ask Dune for help, he's definitely among the adultiest adults I know.

Astolfo: :D! How a Mimikyu makes a face of any sort is left to the viewer's imagination.

Masako: <So this is happening.>

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

Celadon

I think I need some time alone for now. Thank you for tonight Kai~...

-She breathes deeply, hesitates a moment before giving a tight hug. It's a little restrained-

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Ever: I'm Ever! What's your name?

Custard: <...It does appear to be.>

-she waves at Masako somewhat awkwardly-

Custard: <Hi, I'm Custard.>

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Celadon

Kai: Any time!

-She's hugged, and hugs back just as tightly, if not moreso.-

-...-

-... ...-

-... ... ...-

Kai: This is so fluffy oh my gosh.

 Lacunosa Town 

-Walking into Lacunosa-

I don't even know what I'm doing here, most of everyone's still back in Celadon. >_>

 Somewhere in Unova 

-The wandering trio finds itself in front of a forest with the trees stained black and the stench of death-

Judith: -Looking ahead- Ugh...

Wanderer: -Blinks briefly- This places stinks of a demonic aura.

-The Elemental Sword summons itself and glows blue-

Won't be long now, they're coming. Prepare yourselves!

-And then amphorus blobs descend upon them-

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Masako waves back. <Masako.>

Astolfo: <I'm Astolfo!> -She bobs her Glaceon cap back and forth happily.-

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

Cephas: <It was when a bunch of the J-Team was hanging around there. We didn't talk or anything, I just remember your face.>

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

Celadon

Incredibly fluffy, really comfortable!

-The hugs-

O-okay, see you around Kai~

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Celadon

Kai: See you~! 💜

-And then they kiss no they most certainly do n— wait she just kissed her on the cheek before leaving okay then-

-welp she's gone-

Ever: That's a good name! Do you ride a griffin into battle?

Custard: <Cool.>

-she sits on her haunches, swishing her tail back and forth in the manner of a large, scaly, confused dog-

Custard: <...I don't know why my trainer is like this right now. He's generally fairly together.

Do you have a trainer?>

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Castelia Library Balcony

Colt stared at Cephas incredulously. His remark was of little help, he was taunted with another character that claims they spoke but he couldn't remember for the life of him, and it didn't exactly help that the Zoroark's presence only distracted him from being able to recollect what they were talking about. Thus, things only took their logical conclusion.

Colton facepalmed.

Any bratty toddlers in the library complaining about wanting to go home were promptly silenced by the biggest disruption the library ever had in its halls. Screens flickered, pages turned unwarranted, and a poor kid's pennies-on-the-dollar late fee was blown out the door to never be seen again.

In the rest of Castelia, Colton's height advantage was enough to silence all pedestrian and automotive traffic within 100 metres, everyone staring at the Library and wondering what idiot brought an Exploud there.

The only thing keeping the Prax Obscura close to Colt was that he had returned the book to his laptop bag and it was attached to his shoulder, one 'mon in her Pokeball terrified of what just happened.

Hasslemon

handroChloric joined the conversation.

HC: ?

LE: One of Colt's Legendary Facepalms. There's one almost every week.

HC: ...

LE: Preach.
