Treasure Town - PMD-A
Lake has expected that the kind of items that would be sold at a shop in this world would be different...but he hadn't expected to find a what appeared to be some sort of jaw-guard for sale.
Lake: <Excuse me, but what's this?>
He indicates the piece of amour to one of the owner of the stall, a Flygon.
Flygon: <Ah, that, my reptillian friend is a Hydro Jaw, a rather sought after item by Feraligatr such as yourself.>
Lake: <I see...what does it do?>
Flygon: <Well, by simply wearing it over your lower jaw, it will convert any electric attack that you are hit by into HP! Marvelous, no?>
There was a short pause as Lake gave the Flygon a skeptical look.
Lake: <...You're joking, right?>
At Lake's remark, the Flygon's eyes go wide, the insect-like dragon letting out an annoyed chitter.
Flygon: <Absolutely not! I would never even think of selling an item that didn't do work as intended!>
Lake: <Whoa! Sorry, sorry. It's just, it heals damage from any electric move? It almost sounds too good to be true.>
Flygon: <But it is true, good sir! And it can be yours for the price of 5000 Poké!>
Lake: <Oh, right...>
Lake frowned. He didn't have any of this "Poké", so buying anything was out of the question. For the moment...
<This might sound a bit weird, but if I wanted to earn some Poké, where would a Pokémon like me go?>
Flygon: <Oh, are you new in town?>
The Feraligatr nods quickly.
Lake: <Yeah, that's it! I'm new around here and totally not clueless about how things work in this society at all! Honest!>
Real smooth, Lake. If Feraligatr were capable of blushing, his cheeks would have been a rosy red. The Flygon shopkeeper, meanwhile, was beginning to suspect that this Feraligatr had spent a bit too much time at the bottom of a river or something.
Flygon: <...Anyway, there are various ways you could earn Poké but the two easiest are to get a job helping somemon at a stall...>
Lake: <Right...>
Flygon: <...Or find some like-minded Pokémon and form an exploration team at the guild.>
Lake: <Okay, got it.
...
...What's an exploration team?>
The Flygon stares blankly at Lake, the Feraligatr replying with an uncomfortable look.
<Yeah, I came from really far away to get here.>
Well, that was half-true, right?
Eskay, Fuuma can't know about PMD yet. :/
Contact Me!Okay, fixed
Divine Monolith
-Black Knight is standing at the top, watching a platoon of Bisharp drill below. Suddenly, Cesar teleports in, papers flying everywhere. Black Knight doesn't react-
Black Knight: Nice of you to finally catch up. Taking a break, were you?
Cesar: -looks flummoxed- B-but—How did—
Black Knight: Not all of your colleagues are only marginally devoted to this organization. You would do well to remember that in the future, Cesar.
Cesar: No, I was working on—
Black Knight: I am not interested in your pet projects, Cesar. Not after the last one put an entire squad in intensive care.
Cesar: A minor miscalculation! But this time you'll be interested. I was building this!
-with a flourish, the Alakazam produces from within an armful of maps and blue prints what appears to be a Stealth Rock with a chunk of glowing rock on one end. He lets the thing go and it hesitates, swinging back and forth, then stops with the glowing rock facing Black Knight-
Black Knight: ... What am I looking at?
Cesar: A shard detector! I didn't want to tell you about the Orb—or the shard we found—until I was done! The whole team's been working on it! See, the shard of the Orb on the end is pumped full of Psychic energy. It's drawn towards the nearest shard to it. So we had someone cough up a Stealth Rock, and made this!
Black Knight: -nods, then turns to look back out the window- Ready some of our best agents. You and your little rock here are going hunting.
Cesar: -looks a little put out at the lack of commentary on his detector, but gathers his things- Yes, Black Knight.
-blip!-

Umbra: -looks outside- Looks like it stopped raining... I ought to get going now, before Maleficent shows up again. Besides, I need to find out how to get back to my friends...
IUF: Noooooo! Don't let him go, he's useful and nice! D:
Ammmy: Alright... Um... Umbra?
Umbra: Yeah?
Ammy: Um... While you're looking for your friends... maybe even after you find them... Could you come visit every so often? I get lonely in here...
Umbra: Err... sure?
Ammy: Yay! Thank you!
Umbra: You're welcome. I ought to get going now, though...
-leaves the cave-
Ammy: You think he'll actually be back, Umbreon?
IUF: Of course! :3

Umbra: This seems familiar somehow...

Last post for tonight.

«Space-time Orb? And Umbra disappeared when he picked up one of the shards? Hmm…»
-Aurora and Crescent look around-
Aurora:<Is it just me, or does this look familiar?>
Crescent:<Yeah, this definitely seems familiar.>
-They come across a part of what looks like a tower-
Aurora:<Hey...I know this place!>
Crescent:<You do?>
Aurora:<Yeah! It's Silph Co.!>
Crescent:-examines what's left of Silph tower- <...By Arceus. It really is Silph Co.>
Aurora:<Wonder what happened to it.>

Drenched Bluff
After six floors of mons, seeds, and wet feet, Team Icarus finally reaches Wilbur
Skye: <Wilbur? Are you there?>
Wilbur: <Skye!? You're here?>
Eskay: And me. And I don't think you've met Diane yet.
Diane: <Greetings can happen later. First, we need to get you out of there.>
Skye: I've got it.
Wilbur: <Thanks. Now, to get my pearl back from that Zoroark.>
Diane: <By the way, word around town is that you mentioned a human world to him. What were you talking about?>
Wilbur, Eskay, and Skye have their best Oh, Crap! faces on.
Wilbur: <Um... I said "You look just like a human would." I didn't say "world." He was disguised as a human with his ability.>
Diane: (Slightly suspicious) <...Okay... Anyway, where could that Zoroark have gone?>
Skye: <Well, I saw a Spoink that looked exactly like Wilbur earlier, but... Diane, we're gonna have to ask you to stay out of this one... Sorry...
Diane: <...What are you hiding?>
Skye: (Whispers to Eskay) <Crap... Should we tell her?>
Eskay: (Whispering back) I guess we don't have much of a choice. (Aloud, to Diane) Um... We should probably tell you the truth... We are from a world where humans still exist. I was a human before I came here. Something transformed me into a Noctowl after we came through the portal. Skye and Wilbur have always been mons, though. Since humans have been long since extinct in this world, we needed to make sure nobody found out. But now, Wilbur...
Wilbur: <...That Zoroark made me think the portal had stopped turning people into mons. That's why I wasn't careful about what I said. How he managed to copy a human perfectly, I'll never know. But still... I screwed up.
Eskay: But that's why we made up all that stuff. And since you know everything now, you mustn't tell anybody.
Diane silently digests this burst of information.
Eskay: Whether you believe us or not, it's fine with me. But we need to get Wilbur's pearl back as fast as possible. And since Skye saw what could be the theif going toward the portal, we can't let you come with us. I am truly sorry.
Diane: <...>
