JOHTO | and | KANTO

ALSO, AS PROMPTS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: Last month's mini-events!

Effect: Friday, July 8: Flower Gift - All day, despite the season, flowers drift down from the sky. They’re harmless, beautiful, and smell lovely, but if trainers aren’t careful, they might end up trudging through rosedrifts up to their knees before long.
Swarm: Tuesday, July 12: Spinda
Effect: Friday, July 15 to Sunday, July 17: Worry Seed - Affected characters won’t be able to get any sleep. Does that make your character cranky? Does it damage their brain-to-mouth filter? The effects can last as little or as long as you’d like over this weekend.
Effect/Swarm Double Duty: Friday, July 22: Surf - Large waves appear in all bodies of water, including things like bathtubs and your Sawsbucks drinks (it’s just bean water, you know). Be careful on the ocean, but also, hang ten, dudes! The waves won’t destroy anything, but trainers are going to get wet on this ride. Also, oh god, small jellyfish Pokemon (Tentacool, Frillish, Inkay) happen to be swarming randomly in these bodies of water. GANBATTE, VICTORY ROAD.
Effect: Friday, July 29: Haze - The forecast is misty inside and out on this oddly cool July day. Affected trainers will find it difficult to remember things, whether those happened long ago or just five minutes past. The memories aren’t gone, of course, it’s just…foggy.
Swarm: Sunday, July 31: Illumise and Volbeat

FLOWER GIFT (action)
[There's a large, shirtless man sprawled asleep near the path along Route 3. He's a bit difficult to see currently due to the foot-and-a-half tall layer of pink rose petals completely covering him - and everything else along the route.

He'll sleep peacefully away into the day unless he's inadvertently kicked or stepped on, which, let's be real, given the limited visibility offered by the still-falling flower shower and his poorly-planned proximity to the road? He's gonna get kicked.

(he's kind of a masochist though so chances are high he'll actually thank you for it)

Engage the sleeping beast Y/Y?]

...Missing axe? No good. Ice Bear hopes you find it soon.

Ice Bear came here without an axe as well. Feels empty inside without it.

Re: [[text]]

[icebearforprez]

Might have to fight them with Pokemon instead. Removing heads is not Ice Bear's idea of a good time.

Which Pokemon did you start with?

Re: [[text]]

[icebearforprez]

Ice Bear will stick to using kung-fu.

...

...

What? Show Ice Bear this chicken of fire.

Re: [[text]]

[fuelthefire]

[There's no accompanying text, just a brief video feed of this little guy:



He's frolicking happily right at the cameraman's feet, very clearly a baby chicken (of sorts), and also very clearly not murderous in any way.

It's pretty likely that someone over here may be prone to excitable hyperbole.]

Re: [[text]]

[icebearforprez]

[Ice Bear is going to have to take a moment to process this, because this chicken is definitely not dangerous. However, being a bear who prefers cold things over fiery ones, this small creature really doesn't appeal to him either.

Not like he's going to tell the person who's texting him this. Especially with the 'wonderful' talk about murder and hurting people.]

Looks powerful. Needs to grow more though. Name? Referring to the chicken and you.

Re: [[text]]

[fuelthefire]

[Truthfully, in this instance, Mr. Needs-To-Lay-Off-The-Shift-Key here is really all bark and no bite; he only tries to kill people who try to kill him, first, so there's really no need to worry about him too much.]

WiLL get STRONGER. RuN HArd FigHT HARd, burN STRONG STRONG STRONG.

What kind of chicken?

[fuelthefire]

[Krieg, that is not helpful.]

[ownd]

How does a chicken breathe fire?
It makes little sense.

[fuelthefire]

[He's so glad you asked, Zer0. Please enjoy this video feed of one (1) tiny Torchic:


It's hopping, peeping, and frolicking happily at Krieg's feet. It's kind of a funny-looking little bird, but otherwise totally innocuous. Also, currently it's not setting anything on fire.]

Well this has been an extremely creative post.

Are you using the capitalization as a code? Or is this just a stylistic thing?

text; holtzmaaaaaaaan 'A'

[fuelthefire]

NOt CReaATIVE noT CodE.

My AXe iS MIssINg!!!

[aintafraidofno]

Is it a special axe? I could fix you up a new one.

For a price.

Somewhere in my mind responsibility is reminding me to ask for compensation for services rendered.
