ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Ribbons: <Oh, hi Wolf! How are you today?>

AU

AU!DS: (looks at Wolf) Hey there.

"Aw, Clockwise..." Hunter frowns, thinking. "I don't want to crush the poor guy..."

"He does have a type advantage," Ashley points out.

"So did Domino, and I have a feeling Clockwise is considerably weaker. Oh well. Let's not hurt him; Perish Song."

<Aw man... I hate that move.> Lauren makes a face, then starts singing. Clockwise wobbles from side to side.

<Ooh... Music...>

"Clockwise! Okay, use Uproar!"

<WHEE! I CAN SING TOO!> Clockwise opens his beak and lets out an earsplitting screech.

<Nngh!> Lauren shuts her eyes and presses her blades to the side of her face.

Pastoria, Tents

Diesel: -twitches, feeling like someone is mutilating the use of the word "sing"-

I'm fine, Ribbons. You?

AU

AU!Wolf: Hey.

Pastoria, outside the tents

Pianis: Go? Yeah, sure.

-it is at this point that Icicle, Shadow, and Pianis' team return-

Icicle: <Go? But we just spent all day spreading all the snow around!>

Ribbons: <I'm fine.>

Briar Rose: (notices Umbra and waves to him) <Hi!>

AU

AU!DS: Sleep well?

Veilstone

-has awaken, but is still not moving-

Haunt: -pokes him- <Hello?>

Mmph.

Blurr: <What are you doing?>

Haunt: <Let's go do something!>

-mumbling- Idon'twanna.

Pastoria, Tents

-glares at Icicle- Just another reason we should leave. >_<

Breeze: -is sculpting Pianis's team out of snow-

Veilstone

-Amanita is still pacing around, thinking-

Route 213, a while ago

Okay, so... I'm getting bored of this battle. So guess what! I can use my awesome Narrator powers to do some stuff—it'll be so. cool. Check it out!

So, um, the next few turns are just Lauren protecting herself and avoding damage, while Clockwise flutters around and pretends to battle. Then they both faint, so Ashley sends out Six and Hunter sends out Cesar and the Staraptor uses Brave Bird twice and knocks out the Scyther and then the battle's over and no one has to read about it anymore!

Okay, so then they argue about it for a little while and go back to town.

-Jeff is in another secret base he made after the meeting last night. He is practicing his trumpet, having learned the proper embouchre, and is learning the fingerings of the notes, and attempts playing some basic songs, albeit with an unsteady tempo-

Good. I'm glad to hear it. -looks around- Any ideas where to find a Tear, Ms. Psychic-type?

AU

M-hm. You?

Sendoff Spring

Umbra: -waves back at Briar Rose- Hello, Roserade! Any luck finding Tears?

Tiamat: -has dived to the bottom of the spring- It's dark down here...

Pastoria

Pianis: We should probably get out of here before the snow melts, anyway. Unless you want to stick around and watch it become even muddier.

Icicle: <But we were covering it in snow so they wouldn't have to deal with the mud!>

Shadow: <Snow melts, dad.>

Pastoria

-facepalm-

C'mon, let's get going...where to? Sunyshore? The League Building?

Veilstone

Haunt: <Maybe if you went to bother the Galactic guys you'd feel better.>

I'm just tired.

Blurr: <Right..>

...Where's Pariah and the other one?

Haunt': <They fell asleep back there.> -points vaguely-

I see.

Ribbons: (shrugs) <I'm not sure exactly where, but I'm guessing there's at least one here, and another inside Turnback Cave. Based on what we know about that place, DS could probably help us navigate it.>

Briar Rose: (shakes head) <Not yet, but I'm sure we'll find one if we keep looking!>

Silvermist: (notices Tiamat some distance away from where she is searching) <Oh, hello. Yeah, I guess it is kind of dark down here...>

AU

AU!DS: Yeah, I guess so.

Sendoff Spring

Umbra: That's what I think too. -Hears Ribbons- Turnback Cave! Of course! Why wouldn't it be in sacred ground?

Tiamat: -to Silvermist- Just be glad this isn't the ocean. There you have to deal with Sharpedo and Gyarados.

Pastoria, Now

Okay, so fast-forward to the present and... no, stop! You went too far forward, you idiot! Rewind a little... and... right there! Yes, stop! Jeez, the time-shenanigan-ers were so much better at the university... Why would they pair two newbies together, anyway? But whatever, we're back in Pastoria, and Hunter and Ashley are wandering around, wearing jackets (Hunter's is light gray and yellow, Ashley's is black and gold) because some idiot covered it with snow. Snow.

Wait, that wasn't one of us, was it? Who's the set guy? Did he make it snow?

...

... No? It was one of theirs? Oh, okay.

Pastoria

Pianis: Well, Piano's still asleep, but if you can wake her up, then sure, we can get moving.

Silvermist: <Ooh, I guess you're right. There were some Gyarados in the river on Route 205 where DS caught me, but luckily not that many.>

Pastoria, Tents

Meep. Uh, I'll pass....

Breeze: -floats into Mezzo's tent, and then begins making a racket- <WAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUP>

-_-;;

Veilstone

-Amanita starts walking back to Onion-

-nods- I see.

AU

AU!Wolf: -gently smiles-

Pastoria, inside Mezzo's tent

-Mezzo opens her eyes, hits Breeze with an umbrella, then goes back to sleep-

- Finally gets up, feeling a little better now, and goes to check if the others have found anything yet -

Hey guys.

AU

AU!DS: (smiles back)

Pastoria, Mezzo's Tent

Breeze: <Ow! > -flees-
