Floaroma
-Aside from some bugs, the last bit of the trip went from good to great when Phaz and Ark arrived at Floaroma at the end of the afternoon.-
Phaz: Finally ! Floaroma ! It looks even better than on postcards ! And it's still bloomy !
Ashley: <Yeah, that's great.>
Cynthia: <Come on Ashley ! It's awesome ! Don't you like flowers ?>
Ashley: <Yeah, i like them. But you know what i like more than theses flowey hills here ? It's resting. In fact, i would like this even more if we slept first and watch the flowers later.>
Phaz: ...You know what ? Ashley's right. We should find a hotel and sleep a bit.

From: ???
Your Majesty, I thought better of you. You sincerely believe me so imperceptive? What a risible notion. I'm very conscious of your intentions. Regardless, you unmistakably do not deign to play along. It's regrettable, but perhaps not wholly injudicious. Ergo, you have my acceptance, not my blessing. Bring a companion or two. It changes nary a thing. Await my next command in Kalos on the ninth of April. You will not hear from me until then.

Zeal: We're a bit early. Do you mind if we make a stop somewhere? There's someone I'd like to visit while we're here. Well...

Her more than me.

Waffles: <If it wouldn't be too much trouble.>
I'm done here.Cool, thanks.

Scheherezade: Well, weird stuff is going on.
Dunyazade: Can't be any weirder than what happened out here...
Shahryar: You're going to regret saying that.

Dunyazade: Yeah, I'm regretting saying that.

Straw has been tasked with searching the blizzard covered route for someone's missing Furfrou, it having run out into the snow from a Snowpoint hotel.
"This is like searching for a needle in a haystack..."
Spyder "paddles" across the snow beside him, Aurora using him as a mount. Spyder glows blue for a brief moment, indicating that it has a potential idea.
"MESSAGE DIALOG: Try using a dog whistle. They are available from these nearby retailers:
...
...No results found. Search for different product?" Spyder prompts, its eyes turning into question marks.
Aurora tilts her head at Spyder's attempt to help. <"Something tells me that a thing like that won't help here in this blizzard."> She looks around the route. <"This would be so much easier if this route ever stopped snowing.">
"Or if the Furfrou had kept its decorations on." Straw remarks, remembering how they had found green Furfrou decorations in the city.
Aurora sits up, an idea having come to her. <"Wait a minute, what if we had Spyder use Conversion to try and scan for Furfrou by type copying?">
Spyder beeps. "RESPONSE: Good. Execute action? Y/N"
Straw shrugs, "Worth a shot, I suppose."
Spyder begins looking around the route with a scanner-type beam. "SCANNING FOR TEMPLATE POKEMON."
Spyder beeps, and turns purple, indicating Psychic type.
"...Spyder you just copied Aurora."
<"...I probably should have seen this coming"> Aurora sweatdrops.
"Yes, yes you should have."

Gah, they're gonna get themselves slain splitting the party like that. Anyone got a headcount so we can at least make it an even split?

-The fire was warm and crackling, a deep red that licked and reached at the hunk of meat suspended out of range of it's consuming blaze. It wasn't the fire she knew, father's fires were much more beautiful and a deep gr~ No. No time for those thoughts, no telling who could listen here. She simply sat and watched the fire as it's source Ja'wain lay sleeping in the contained heat. It took her a moment to work up the courage to speak to the wilderness that surrounded her camp-
Think we'll ever find him? He's quite elusive and I doubt he'll stand still... If we keep following the threads we should at least remain on his tail...
-She sighs, prodding at the meat as it cooks, this would be a long hunt...-

Jason:One!

Jason:What?! I'm concentrating here, Sen.
Senshi:<Do you even see what you're doing...?>
Jason:What, of course I do, I'm tra...
-Beat-
...wait, where's my training dummy?
Senshi:<Behind you...>
-Jason turns around...and finds himself staring at a battered and dented tree-
Jason:Was I...?
-Senshi nods-
-Jason facepalms-
Mt Coronet
-Aero grumbles something about being in enclosed spaces before curling up and following-
-Because she's been here the whole time, obviously, why would you suggest otherwise?-
Eterna Gym
-Blitz is probably here, though with the flurry of activity he's waiting to see how effective the current strategy is before jumping in-
Eterna, just before Scheherazade took care of one of the cores
-Kokone, Pyrrha, and Malachi are wandering around in the jungle-y part of Eterna-
Kokone: <This is starting to get a bit annoying, I hope whatever's going on goes back to normal soon.>
Pyrrha: <Well, we've been sitting around an awful lot. If we want this thing taken care of, we should go out and do it ourselves!>
Kokone: <...How do you suggest we do that? You remember the last time we battled a glitch?>
Pyrrha: <What are you talking about? We beat it!>
Kokone: <Yeah, with help.>
Pyrrha: <Hey, we've got Malachi now, he's helpful, right?>
Malachi: <Uh... maybe? I don't know how much, really...>
<Uh, maybe someone else might be more helpful?>
Pyrrha: <Great idea! We shall seek out someone else for this!>
Kokone: <...That wasn't quite what I meant.>
<...Though I guess if we found anyone from that team that's used to dealing with this stuff...>
Pyrrha: <Right, let's go!>
-She bolts off-
Malachi: <Uh, hey, wait!>
-He follows in turn-
-Kokone sighs and goes after the two-
-A certain Rhyperior is lying around elsewhere in the jungle area, looking generally disinterested-
-She looks onward as a Ponyta rushes over and greets her-
Pyrrha: <Hey, there!>
Rhyrhy: <...Hi, I guess.>
Pyrrha: <You seem pretty strong.>
Rhyrhy: <Eh, maybe, I guess.>
Pyrrha: <Would you like to help us deal with the glitch that's causing this jungle?>
Rhyrhy: <Uh, sure, I guess. Hasn't bothered me too much, but apparently some people are trying to get rid of it and the other stuff.>
Pyrrha: <Great!>
-It is then that Kokone and Malachi catch up-
Malachi: <Geez... you run fast, don't you?>
Kokone: <You don't know... the half of it.>
-Pyrrha notices them-
Pyrrha: <Hey, guys! This Rhyperior just agreed to help us->
-Suddenly a slightly glitched Buneary emerges from the jungle and leaps at the group-
-Without moving much, Rhyrhy extends one of her arms and Hammer Arms the Buneary, dealing heavy damage to them-
-The Buneary, still solid, steps back a bit and is about to go in for another attack, but the jungle begins to vanish around the group and so does the Buneary-
-Kokone and Malachi blink as this happens-
Pyrrha: <Huzzah! Thank you for ridding us of the jungle, Rhyperior.>
Rhyrhy: <Eh, I didn't do much.>
Kokone: <I'm inclined to agree.>
Pyrrha: <But you did something! And that something was helpful!>
<Besides, when we get stronger, such things will be easier to us as well!>
Malachi: <Uh... I guess.>
Pyrrha: <Anyway, as a reward...>
-She reaches her head into a bag Kokone's carrying-
Kokone: <Agh, hey! I could just get it myself.>
-Pyrrha mumbles something indistinct, then pulls out some Pinap berries-
Pyrrha: <Here!>
-She gives them to Rhyrhy-
Rhrhy: <Uh... thanks.>
-She eats one of them-
Malachi: ...Was that sanitary?
Kokone: <I think you should tell me before you do something like that.>
Pyrrha: <Come on, Kokone, none of us are really big on sour stuff anyway.>
