Individual sets under the cut

She's been watching her look panicked from the bench. Huh, that's a familiar feeling. "Do you... need some help?"

Oh she's losing her marbles. Not even flying around with Miri could help. Nobody is speaking Unovan, let alone any language she might know. She got almost ran over by a giant Scolipede and now she's this close to crying.

At least until, at last... someone speaks to her. Someone, in this hell of a town, notices her. So, she's going to try her best to sniffle and keep in any hint of panic and/or sadness as she finally looks up.

"I uhm...

...I need to find- H-Hotel Z...?"

ㅤ given all the bad in the world, the good has treated mable very well. she's spoiled with a labful of researchers who share similar passions & equal impatience, with a staff who've grown used to her upstairs— rambling & largely welcomed her in place of their former head. not to mention the volunteers⸻ the volunteers! bright— eyed budding trainers who itch for experience.

ㅤ alas, not all her volunteers share the same focus. deadlines creep faster than mable anticipates... as the saying goes, you attract more beautifly with honey than vinegar. the research lab has garnered plenty of resources that would go for a high price elsewhere that even experienced trainers can't pass up.

ㅤ it's not that mable needs a high favor, more... a curiosity sated. something related but not necessary, arguably a puzzle piece to an unasked, unthought question. the options for field research dwindles⸻ subtracting for trainers traveling outside of the city, unreliable, without experience... there's one name that lingers. zal's up to snuff. progressively up— to— date pokédex entries, capable of training strong pokémon, agreeable... so mable calls.

zal and ivor play video games until he accidentally crushes the gamecube controlller (sorry gwynn).

they hang out. a lot actually. when he has the availability. maybe he has a crush on her and doesn't know yet :).

if he ever found a shiny falinks, he would give it to zal.

Zai introducing Nata to Mega Stones! Honestly I kinda am curious to explore Mega Stones and how Wylk bears similar qualities in the AU, given that all guardians who have a mega-evolutions in their natural evolutionary line ARE always born in their mega forms. Mega Orrean Aggron, Mega Charizard X, and Mega Houndoom are examples of guardians.

"Ree said theres a room where you break shit, can I get in there."

"yep.

second one on the left from the entrance, the one with the blood."

The other hero... isn't that a bit much?

Vera mostly went with the flow, after all. She captured what she found along the way and gave a, for the most part, reclutant hand when needed.

And today, she wanted to have some warm drink with a pal... even if their chill day was about to get a more violent twist.

"Is this what you want?

Rex isn't exactly a fighter, you know? He's a little bit silly, actually!"

Really underselling her 2 meters tall dinosaur brought back from extintion, there. The baby did personally beat the crap out of a Megaevolved Pokèmon all on his own just a few days before, after all!

"You're talking like I'm not busy -- are you trying to test my patience?" Corbeau groused, but there was no real bite in his voice. Not even the usual pinch of his brows showing off his annoyance was present.

After a small pause, he said, "Well, it's important for Scolipede to have proper enrichment through play dates. Just pick a date. I'll make it work."
