Hamlet, Luiza's House, Gate

There's two humans in this shack; one of them is an old man who is currently sitting against the wall, his leg bandaged up in scraps of cloth that clearly weren't made for that purpose. The other is younger, a woman, who swiftly grabs a Pokeball once she notices Kamui's arrival into the room.

???A: Hold. Are you here to help?

???B: There's no helping it...

???A: Fa—... Please excuse my father, he's a little grim... One of the Lycan's pokemon attacked him while we were trying to get here. Are you here to help us get the gate open?

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Morata's Mansion, Study, Nov. 1

Yoko turns her head slightly. Something was definitely going on outside but she wasn't sure if she should go check.

The sticky note reads: "Do not simply write where it is. We shall have words later. -Josette" in very neat, proper handwriting. Witch flips it up to reveal another note that says "passcode upstairs. ask to see journal -ynos" in messy handwriting.

Morata's Mansion, Kitchen, Nov. 1

Newt's scan doesn't pick up anything interesting. Seems it's just a normal pantry.

Shamhat, meanwhile, will see...

Morata's Mansion, Main Hall, Nov. 1

The maid whips her head around. The distraction caught her attention perfectly, and she marches towards the tail she saw. She puts a hand in her pocket (oh neat that skirt has pockets) and seems to hold onto something as she goes.

Kappa will find the door opening easily and silently, right into...

Morata's Manor, Kitchen - November 1st

Newt: ...Just a normal kitchen.

Shamhat: Okay Newt, now let's-

-Shamhat's first instinct upon seeing the door suddenly open after immediately tensing is to summon a barrier to slam the offender against the wall, only to see that the offender is just Kappa, and start pulling them inside with surprising strength-

Shamhat: -Managing to catch a glimpse of the Braviary statue in the next room as she responds telepathically upon catching sight of the maid's retreating back- Careful!

-To me-

You didn't say they were that close.

-To Shamhat as I whip my head towards the other exit-

Sorry, slipped my mind.

Sinnoh Region, Jubilife City Streets, Tech-Expo Line:

Despite Stipax's best efforts to communicate with Travis, the latter's complete inability to understand Monese left him in a state of amused confusion. He would comment after a bit of laughter, "You sure seem to have a lot to say little buddy! I'm guessing this is your main Owen?"

<You'll have to forgive my trainer, he doesn't speak the language and is in fact...an idiot sometimes, but he's my idiot.> Tricky would try to explain to the Galvantula.

"So if you're headed to Oreburgh, what brings you to Jubilife? We're headed to the expo going on here...if this line ever f*****g moved," Mark asked, his impatience already growing a bit. Before he would have a chance to hear an answer though, the breakdancer would notice Crima dancing and laugh rather aggressively.

"You call dat dancin' garden lily?! I've seen better moves from a Porygon V1 glitchin' out!" The breakdancer scoffed, facing the group with his arms folded and an aggressive grin, "This street's my turf, and I ain't gonna give it up to some upstarts with weak moves like that!"

"Look man, we aren't trying to start anything, we're just waiting in line for—"

"Too late little man! The spotlights on all of ya's. Better start bustin' some moves, unless ya's a buncha fake-ass bustas!" The breakdancer interrupted, issuing a challenge for seemingly no other reason beyond boredom and the sake of drawing what was for many unwanted attention. Without any delay, the breakdancer would start playing a new song over his Rotom Phone and bluetooth speaker on full blast before saying as the crowd's attention quickly turned to the commotion, "Your turn busta!"

Hi, I’m oghond, and I’m a Rushaholic. Sorry if I annoy you unintentionally. 😅

Sinnoh Region, Jubilife City, Tech-Expo Line:

"Ha! Dat's a neat little parlor trick, I'm sure all the youngsta's love it," The breakdancer said before he and his Hitmontop started doing a variety of T-steps, hops, drops, twists, and even a moonwalk before wrapping it up with what could best be described as several headspins done while airwalking the entire time. After doing a weird cartwheel back on his feet.

"Beat that ya wannabe!" The breakdancer boasted while he and his hitmontop threw their arms out and puffed out their chests before crossing their arms again. <I...absolutely...will.not.dance! Especially for your amusement!> Tricky growled viciously while more and more of the crowd began to focus on the dance competition.

After a few moments of cautiously looking around and noticing they were all surrounded at this point, Mark would turn to Chopper and say, <Alright buddy, just follow my lead.>

<Understood brother-sensei, lead the way,> Chopper nodded in response before he began mirroring his trainer's movesets. Mark's style of dancing wasn't any typical dancing, but rather a mix of various martial arts done at a breakdancing pace, incorporating techniques from Hung Gar, Northern Shaolin Style, and Tang Soo Do. While there were some close calls for dramatic flair, neither Mark nor Chopper actually landed any hits on each other, and after a couple moments of coordinated punches, kicks and other striking moves, they would conclude with a Dragonball Z Fusion Dance, minus any actual fusion.

"You're lucky I'm holding back, or I would have floored your sorry ass!" Mark retorted with Chopper flexing aggressively as if trying to reinforce his trainer's threat. "Busta, I ain't about pokemon battles! That s**t's overdone and predictable, but dancin'? I mean just look how much attention we're getting!" The breakdancer replied with bravado, pointing out how swarms of audience members were actively watching and recording the dance battle going on.

Sinnoh Region, Jubilife City, Expo-Line:

Between the martial arts poses, aggressive dancing, and mastery of electricity displayed in this dance battle, the size and captivation of the crowd was starting to give entry-level contests a run for their money. Speaking of money, some members of the crowd were starting to throw pokemon dollars toward the breakdancer, Owen, Travis and Mark, which got a gravely chuckle out of Mark as he noticed his friend wasting no time in scrambling to take as much money as he could.

"Hey don't worry, I'll split it between us all evenly!" Travis reassured with a cheeky grin before the breakdancer quipped, "You sure you deserve that money guy?! I didn't see you dancing with your pals!"

"I'm more of a stagehand kind of guy. I don't really dance ya know?" Travis explained with a handwave.

"Why? You shy or something, or are you just f*****g lame?" The breakdancer inquired, completely oblivious to the wrath he'd incur until Travis used his mobile phone to hijack the bluetooth speaker and play a Record Needle Scratch sound effect.

"You want to run that by me again d***head?! Cause I'm definitely not the shy type!" Travis said coldly before switching to the next song and doing the old dancing spiderman meme from the early 2000's, followed by some of the dances done by Emo Peter Parker for good measure.

<What do you think you're doing Travis? Stop it before you hurt yourself!> Tricky demanded, despite knowing full well all her trainer would hear was angry barking noises. Before wrapping up, Travis would try another dance move, only for his right knee to give out..but instead of just dropping on the ground, Travis would follow-through with it as if he knew this would happen and would shuffle a bit before taking a knee and dabbing at the same time.

"I may not be the world's best dancer, but I'm not afraid to try when I have to!" He growled before Tricky instinctively rushed to his side and offered herself as a support as Travis pulled himself back upright.

Sinnoh Region, Jubilife City, Expo-Line:

While some of the crowd was concerned for Travis, others thought it was just part of the dance battle and paid no mind to it.

<Yes, he did break a leg...years ago after getting hit by a car. Travis may have recovered, but he forgets he's not as mobile or indestructible as he used to be.> Tricky explained in resigned annoyance.

"Dude chill out! I didn't know ya's actually one of the lames. Didn't let that stop ya from showin' whatcha got though. Mad respect dude!" The breakdancer said trying to save face, knowing all eyes were on him.

"Dude we're just here to see the tech show. Some of these mons thought your moves were cool and wanted to have fun as well. I don't have any hard feelings, but I'd just forget it, don't bother pretending to apologize and shut the f**k up man, you don't have a leg to stand on" Travis told the breakdancer, having found him insincere and self-absorbed.

"Hey Trav, the line's finally moving! Let's get going before it stops again!" Mark notified his friend, both wanting to get a move-on and end the conversation then and there. "F****g A' man! Travis replied, his tone improving somewhat as he limped away from the scene, sore from exerting himself more than usual. The breakdancer would return to his usual routine, but at this point very few people were paying attention.

"Man this city's dead anyway, I'm moving back to Goldenrod!" He yelled at no one in particular, committed to completing one more song before moving on elsewhere.

Evelyn's Pokédex: Pikachu, the Mouse Pokémon, and the evolved form of Pichu. An Electric type. Whenever Pikachu comes across something new, it blasts it with a jolt of electricity. If you come across a blackened berry, it's evidence that this Pokémon mistook the intensity of its charge. It occasionally uses an electric shock to recharge a fellow Pikachu that is in a weakened state. Pikachu that can generate powerful electricity have cheek sacs that are extra soft and super stretchy.

-The Pink Magical Girl's Bisharp readied his blades, which glowed with a metallic light. The Red Magical Girl's Shiftry readies his leaf fans, which glowed green with the aura of nature. Piku-chan prepared his tail, which glowed with a metallic sheen as Oshawittle drew forth his Razor Shell sword and froze the blade with an Ice Beam, empowering it.-

Evelyn: Kako! Mirai!

Me: Raru!

Evelyn: Use Magical Leaf!

-The Yellow Magical Girl's Crawdaunt raises its claw, which then glows a brilliant blue. The Green Magical Girl's Cacturne raises his arm, the thorns on which glow a gastly green. The two Pokémon then jump back and make room for the Blue Magical Girl's Skuntank to belch out a plume of black smoke and conceal the two of them from the sight of the Feeling and Emotion Pokémon. Within the smoke cloud, Cacturne and Crawdaunt switch their positions, like a shell game, but one item is a crustacean and the other is a scarecrow-cactus hybrid, both poised to attack. The two Pokémon jump out of the smoke cloud, Crawdaunt on the right and Cacturne on the left and move to strike Raru, Kako and Mirai, who meet their attack with a magical flurry of rainbow colored leaves. Piku-chan and Oshawittle then meet Bisharp and Shiftry's X-Slash with one of their own.-

A 20 second video landed on the dash of some folks.

"Attention everyone? Physics expert Lemalf Salohcin here."

"The Golden Blaziken dance craze is a hoax. It is scientifically impossible to turn Blaziken claws into gold."

At that point the video would cut over to Kendall.

"Just consider the thought in the first place. Consider moves like Iron Head and Iron Tail. Those moves are difficult enough for Pokemon to perform in the heat of battle. And that's merely compressing elements like calcium and carbon into iron! Gold would be infinitely more difficult to do; consider how dense it is!"

And then the video would end.

Kamui looked at the bandage with some amount of consideration before turning her attention to the gate. "What to do?" She considered, holding the amulet she stole from one of the goons in contemplation while at the same time leaning against the gate.
