ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Maekrite rushes to the outside to start sniffing the sooted air around town, trying to detect which way the sad mons were.

Maekrite: <Well now this makes it harder to do...>

-the presesnt sounds like something soft's in there-

Have a good night, Daisy. *hugs*

Rex: Oh, that's Marmalade? I didn't know she evolved. ...Is something wrong?

Kim: *shivers, her Aura senses picking up waves of sadness* ...

Marmalade: -from inside the backpack- <I don't want to talk about it...>

...

-makes a mental note to talk to Marmalade tomorrow, once she's composed herself a bit-

-Looks at my present-

With Maekrite - Now Outside the Hotel

<Teala: "Well... We have to try, don't we?">

<Lake: "There's mons out there who are crying out for help... It would be cruel to just ignore them...">

<Toothless: "Yeah...">

<Nadia: "Let's do this...">

-The four set out into the darkening streets of Fallarbor-

Cafe

Ryklys: -tries to catch the duo without success-

READ! COME BACK HERE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?

???

Basket: -reappears-

Oh! You have returned!

Basket: <err, I'm not the Spirit for this scene, but Present-wise, just figured you should know about what Crewe has now been driven to do as a cascading effect of your actions... then again, maybe I'm heaping too much on you already...>

...I have a bad feeling about this...

Wait, where'd you go?! Tropius spirit! Hello?!

Ah!

-in the dim city below, people can be seen filing through the market, quietly... and timidly-

A calm town...

   -a shadowy figure materializes in front of Mew-   

   Oh, do look closer~   

Customer: Look, that is not a good price for apples, Perfect or not!

Fruitseller: Fine, fine, don't raise your-

-both people freeze stone-silent as a glassy-eyed patroller passes the stall, TEAM HAPPINESS emblazoned on his shirt-

Fruitseller: ...we don't want to end up like... them...

Town Stage

-a Pokémon battle is taking place in the middle of town, as usual, yet... something is... off about it.-

Future!Star: -glassy eyed- GO, SEPTEMBER!

Future!September: -eyes not really visible, heads out to battle-

Future!Crewe: -at the other end of the battlefield, glassy-eyed too- Anakin!

Future!Anakin: RAAWR! <Battle!>

Future!Crewe: Whee!

Future!Star: FUN!

-a battle proceeds-

Bystander #1: Wait, I thought the Flygon won by a landslide yesterday?

Bystander #2: It's all scripted... the winner switches every other day. I'm not sure if either of them is even conscious of their condition anymore... or if they'd want to be...

Team Happiness: HEY!

Bystander #2: um LIFE IS WONDERFUL! I COULDN'T BE BETTER!

Team Happiness: Oh, good! -gives an eerie grin-

This... time... horrendous! It's a mockery of all I stand for!

   No? It's a world at peace...   

Only from the shallowest glance!

   ...   

Who... Spirit, what kind of beast is responsible for this oppression?

   -the figure finally drops their shadow-   

   Maoh!Mew: Why, you are, Mew!   

Mauville Cafe

Klavazazel: <WOOF!> -evades Ryklys and dashes for the exit-

Vilkas: Klavazazel! What's gotten into him? -pursues-

-The box has a hat,scarf, and gloves in it-

-there's also a note-

Cafe

Ryklys: Ugh. -turns to Vilkas-

No idea who you our, but it seems our mons have gone crazy together. We going to look for them, or sit around like idiots?

...

-Is simultaneously happy to recieve the gift and upset that I don't have anything for Star yet-

Mauville Cafe

-Vilkas is already sprinting out to try and find Klavazazel-

Fallarbor Inn

-is trying to coax Marmalade out of his backpack, to no avail. It probably doesn't help that Salamence and Jab are currently wrapped around the antlion dragon in their sleep-

Hey, where's Every? He should get some cake too.

Forte: Yeah, he'd better get here quick or you're going to eat the whole thing up.

Inn

-is still trying to get Marmalade to come out-

Marmalade: <I think Mezzo wants you for something...>

Hm?

-sticks head into whatever room Mezzo's in-

Did you call me?

Katie: -has a present for Every, too- Merry Christmas! Or happy Chanukah! I'm not really sure...

Last post.

And Every ruined it. :P

Yeah, I wanted to ask if you would like some cake.

-hears Katie's comment-

Oh, um... a present?

I kinda forgot to get them for everyone... you know, because I was asleep and all...

Sorry. U_U

It's Chanukah for me. ^_^

-takes the present-

Happy holidays.

-opens the present-

-Every's present is an improbably long scarf with images of flying Swablu on it, as well as mittens, scarves, and hats for his Pokemon, according to whether or not they can actually use them (Diesel doesn't have mittens, for example). All of them got at least a hat (even Gyru)-

Gyru in a hat. Awesome.

Inn

...Wow.

Thanks!

-puts on the scarf-

My team should be happy for these when they've all woken up.

Katie: You're welcome. -Christmas hug-

Now it's the last post.

-hugs back-

Night Wolf. Sleep well, and dream of Glaceon making it a white Christmas. ^_^

The Wild Mindscape Druddigon is rather beaten, barely conscious. Casval's Ludicolo, on the other hand, has apparently resumed dancing.

"It's my first time doing this. Therefore, let's make it count."

Casval pulled out of his pack, a Pokéball.

"Let's do this!"

With a forceful toss, the sphere sucked the Cave Pokémon in, shaking three times, before stopping with a "DING".

Wild Mindscape Druddigon was caught!

D'awwwww, now I will. :3

Good. ^_^

-to Mezzo-

Now...you mentioned cake? :3

Yeah, there's birthday cake still.

-holds out a slice-
