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

_{[At the idea that this guy just might wanna see his pride and joy, Maurice lights right up. He's almost a different person.]}

[meteorman]

Absolutely I do!

[Look at these two nerds, nerding together. Beautiful.]

_{[In a burst of light, Meatloaf the Rhyhorn is called from his Poke'ball. He trumpets a greeting and Maurice instantly starts laughing and tussling with him, as though he were a big dog instead of a huge, stone-plated rhinoceros creature. Meatloaf, in turn, is very lively but also very gentle. He adores his trainer.]}

Mr. Loaf's only the best Pokemon there is!

[meteorman]

How long have you been training him?

[It's interesting to him, how close they seem. As a man who has up until very recently had an incredibly difficult time forming bonds (mainly due to self-sabotage, he admits), the particular partnership between a Pokemon and their trainer fascinates him. It's not like the bond between owner and pet, but neither is it a perfect mirror of a partnership between two humans. It's a type of mutually beneficial relationship that really only exists localized to this universe, and that sort of thing is his bread and butter.]
