Harper stumbled clumsily through the tall grass and the forest as he ran, following the sweet scent. He wanted to find the source, it was his new mission! He was sure his trainer would be able to follow him, even if her nose wasn't as strong as his. Skidding a little on the frosty ground, Harper found himself looking up at a very pretty Oddish waving her leaves. Cocking his head to one side, he frowned, slightly disappointed. He'd been hoping for something more interesting, even if the scent was pleasant. However, when he realised that this would be his opportunity to battle he yipped delightedly. Once Marlaey caught up with him she found her Growlithe playfully growling at a very prim and clean looking Oddish. "Your turn to battle eh, Harper?", she grinned.

::oddish:: pokemon encounter ! the oddish's attitude was met head on with the growlithes monstrous voice. it was so loud, so ferocious. the oddish ran. the sound waves clashed against her ears, sending her backwards. with a quick turn after landing in the nearby bush. she screamed and ran away. her 'tail' between her legs. < i didn't mean it. i'm sorry. don't eat me! leave me alone! aaaaah!!! > yeah. corny. cheesy. whatever you want to call it. roar had sent that oddish to neverland. or rather, away from the battle field.

"Aww.. No battle for you now Harper, you scared the Oddish off!" Marlaey said disappointedly.
But Harper appeared quite cheerful about the whole event. He'd frightened away an enemy Pokemon! He was so amazing that he didn't even have to battle! He howled happily, making Marlaey turn and grin at him.
"Careful now, you might attract some more Pokemon if you do that!"

::Furret:: ::Sentret:: ::Patrat:: ::Watchog:: WOAH IT'S THE BOYSCOUTS! It’s Christmas! Get your scarves and gloves and boots, guys! And what could be better than a nice warm cup of hot cocoa? A lovely chair and a fireplace, but that’s pushing it. As Marlaey scolded Harper for roaring and frightening away the Oddish, a group of other Pokémon heard the Roar and in an excited way, they all raced over to the trainer. It was a congregation of Patrat and Sentret, accompanied by a Watchog and Furret. The Furret and Watchog placed a cup of hot chocolate at Harper’s paws – or rather a bowl – and the Watchog smiled charmingly as he gave one to Marlaey. “Alright now everyone, let’s give some Christmas cheer! One, two, three!”Suddenly a chorus of chants, merged into one gorgeous voice, rose up into the air as they went into the christmas carol. "'Tis the season to be jolly...”FA LA LA LA LA LAAAAA <3

Marlaey blinked in surprise at the appearance of a large congregation of Pokémon. Harper's howl must have indeed alerted them to their whereabouts. But instead of attacking them, the group of Pokémon produced refreshments and entertainment! Perplexed, but very pleased, Marlaey accepted the hot chocolate and wiped some frost off a nearby log to sit down.
"Thank you very much!" she exclaimed, making herself comfortable.
Harper lapped up his warm drink, accidentally appearing rude and not thanking the group. But when his muzzle was duly licked free of hot chocolate, he sat up and pricked up his ears, listening to the Watchdog, Furret, Patrat and Sentret sing. Very good indeed! Maybe he should take part? He howled once more, hoping they wouldn't mind. Christmas cheer for all!

The group didn’t seem to be bothered that Harper begun to howl by the end of their song. In fact they seemed enlightened by it and grinned, gathering around the Growlithe, patting his head and stroking his shoulders, mane and back in greeting. As that song ended, they seemed to go into another, and the Furret and Watchog both sat on the log beside the trainer, watching their charges sing with the Growlithe.
The Furret especially was quite affectionate. Her fur was cold from the chill of the winter’s air and she coiled up on the trainer’s lap, humming along to the melody. The choir had gone onto their next song now, it seemed, and they were singing Silent Night.
The Watchog was alert, scouting for his little group. They were the scouts – a lovely little group who banded families together to do really interesting activities! It didn’t seem like there was any danger just yet, but there seemed to be one Pokémon – a Sentret, who nervously shuffled her feet as she approached the trainer. She continued to sing with the rest, but her voice was quieter.
She seemed to hold something in her paws – a tray? Whatever it was it had a little box on top of it containing some kind of item. As she offered it to Marlaey with a tiny, adorable smile, and settled down, expecting her to open it. “This... This is for you. Merry Christmas!”
Marlaey would have to open the little box to find out what was inside!

Harper finished his long howl and was pleased to find that he'd been surrounded by the singing group. Her rubbed up against them, enjoying their attention. It felt wonderful! He was humming now, deep in his throat, along with the more slow melodies of Silent Night. After chasing after that Oddish, he really hadn't expected to run into such a lively friendly group. He felt perfectly at home with them too, licking a few of the younger ones affectionately. They were a good group he decided to himself.
When the Furret curled up in her lap, Marlaey felt such a warm glow of love for the gorgeous creature that she couldn't resist warming up the beauty's fur a little with her hand, stroking down in long sweeps, admiring how soft she felt. She kept Marlaey's lap warm too, which was a nice added bonus! Grinning like a fool, Marlaey listened happily to the chorus until the Watchog noticed a little sentret approaching them.
Looking down, Marlaey saw that she was offering her a gift. "For me?", she asked, blushing and accepting it. But she was far more enamoured with the Sentret herself. She was so pretty, so sweet. Marlaey could only wish for such a delicate little thing to be on her team. Focusing her attention back on the gift, Marlaey unwrapped it carefully to see what it was.

::FURRET:: ::PATRAT:: ::WATCHOG:: Leave for other Pokemon and Trainers to cheer up!
The Pokemon seemed to enjoy that they were making the trainer fill up with the holiday cheer, with their songs cheerful and merry as the Furret kept rubbing up against her affectionately. The Sentret was the quiet and hesitant one of the group, but she was always willing to participate! Sure, she wasn't always very noticed, but she was fine as long as she got to be around others that were happy. She smiled softly to herself before twitching and noticing the trainer's gaze on her, as if it was calling out to her specifically. She blushed, not sure what to make of it as she hid her head behind her paws, too embarrassed to even watch.
The Pokemon stuck around to see the present being opened; two oran berries and a cheri berry, tied together to look like a festive mistletoe! How sweet! They had other people to cheer up though, so they started to leave, but the Sentret stuck around a little as she felt compelled to say something nice.
<M-Merry Christmas. Do you like it?> She asked hesitantly, looking back occasionally to watch the others leave her behind. She could see their tracks in the snow though, so she was positive that she'd be able to find them somehow. Easy task!

Harper nuzzled each of the Pokemon before they left, thanking them for the festive songs and hot drinks. He was sad to see them go, but understood that other people needed to be cheered up too. It was a cold day after all! He grinned, showing his white canines and turning to his trainer who was still with a little Sentret. He looked at her closely, she seemed to be very shy, but it was quite endearing. Not that he fell for any of that sort of thing! He shook himself, puffing out his chest. Nope! Not. At. All.
Marlaey blushed at how thoughtful the gift had been. Two oran berries and a cheri berry in the shape of mistletoe! It was such a beautiful (and useful!) present. She looked up to see that the party was leaving, even the Furret had left her lap. She waved them off, thanking them profusely for their company. But when she looked down once more, she noticed that the little Sentret had stayed behind. Why was that?
She smiled warmly at the bashful creature. "Thank you so much for my gift, its wonderful. It really is! And so cute how you shaped it!"
A thought occurred to her as she spoke. Hoping she didn't scare her away, Marlaey asked, "Would you like to stay with us, Little One? You'd be very welcome to join our team!" She wasn't sure if the Sentret would want to battle or would simply run away, but it was worth giving her the choice.

She blushed a bit when the trainer gave her some nice words and quickly became a bit hesitant when the trainer asked the other question. The Sentret lacked confidence and was also very shy so she did not know how to respond at all. This was the season to be giving so she felt happy that the trainer would be giving her a nice proper home, but she wasn't sure if she wanted that or even deserved that to be honest.
She simply stood there, pondering everything through, but did not leave at all. That must have been a good sign that she went nowhere! But did that mean that she was hesitant and didn't know how to say no? Or did it just mean that she wanted to say yes, but did not feel comfortable saying it? Only one way to tell...

The little Sentret seemed to be thinking about Marlaey's question, and the trainer felt a moment of disappointment as she thought maybe the pokemon didn't want to come with her. But then why was she still standing there? Marlaey wanted to do something more, but she couldn't think how to get the shy creature to respond.
But then Harper came to the rescue.
Loping over to the pair, Harper sat himself down between them and looked from one to the other with a big stupid grin on his face. He nosed Marlaey's bag and a pokeball rolled out. Then he turned to the bashful Sentret and nuzzled her affectionately. He licked her nose and yipped softly. He wanted her to come with them, but mostly he wanted her to understand that it was safe for her to make her own decision, no matter what it was. The tracks from the group of singers were still fresh, so she could follow them if she wanted.

pokemon encounter ! the little sentret jumped slightly when the growlithe licked her nose. snuggled up against her, and yipped softly. it made her feel warm inside, the fact that the two, trainer and pokemon, wanted her to be on the team. she felt tied. however, she nodded slowly. < ahh.. yes. i'll come with you.. > she spoke softly, but moved into the trainers arms. snuggling closer to her. then, realizing that the growlithe had rolled a pokeball in front of her, the sentret blinked.
then hopped down, pressed the button. and waited as the red light enveloped her. then snuck her into the ball. it rocked gently from side to side. mostly because the pokemon within wasn't fighting it. after five rocking motions, the red and white sphere went still. it let out a soft beep and lay quietly. sentret had been caught!

Marlaey's heart melted when the Sentret snuggled in close to her. She was so sweet. "I think I'll call you Kismit", she whispered to the little creature before she hopped down. Harper wriggled with excitement. A new new friend!! This was turning out to be the best Christmas ever! The red light enveloped the pretty little pokemon and Marlaey sighed with relief. She was glad the Sentret had chosen to come with them. She would be a great addition to their team! Now would be a great time for all her Pokemon to get to know each other, she thought.
"How about we all get some grub, eh Harper? You must be hungry after all that singing!"Harper barked loudly, excited. "Time for dinner guys!", Marlaey called as she threw her pokeballs into the air and released all her pokemon.
Little Foot appeared eagerly, immediately looking around for the food. She was starving! Without any preamble she stuck her head in Marlaey's pack and gurgled happily when she found the Pokemon food. Ahiga practically fell out of his Pokeball, tripping over himself as he tried to stand up properly. <Move over you! I'm hungry too! Look at my ribs, I need more food than you!> he squawked at the turtle. Little Foot raised her head slowly and deliberately, looking the avian in the eye, <Do not make me beat you again birdbrain!> Ahiga puffed up his feathers and glared at Little Foot, but he wisely waited until she dragged the bag of food out from the pack.
Marlaey watched the little scuffle between her Pokemon and smiled. She still didn't quite understand her Pokemon, but she was trying. Someday she'd get there. Picking up the food from Little Foot she dispersed it evenly among each of them, pausing to give Kismit an rub on her head. The Sentret squeaked with delight and embarrassment. It made both Little Foot and Ahiga turn to look at her.
<You're new>, Ahiga commented bluntly. Little Foot scowled at him, <Don't be so rude! Technically you're still new too!>
Harper came over and sat next to everyone, <Hey hey! Guys! This is Kismit!> He was so excited to introduce her that he couldn't stop wriggling. His tail wagging vigorously he was even too excited to eat!

::paras:: PARAS APPEARED ! A Paras who'd recently taken a trip through Verona City and Ile Electrique just happened to be scurrying along at that very moment, glancing around as if there was something interesting about the route. Eyes centered upon the gathering of trainer and her pokemon, round and emotionless.
She scuttled up to them. <Hey, haven't you guys heard? FOOD is sooo out of style. Now I'm living off of Ayds Diet Candy.> She spoke loudly, then held out her claw, displaying the brown cubes to them. Her influence was obviously from seeing the trainers in Verona advertising the diet candy so fervently; a few boxes had dropped on the ground, and Paras had her claws on quite a few of them.
<Merry Christmas to me! I'm a size three claws again!> The Paras laughed through her teeth as she scuttled away, hooting like a crazed owl.

Kismit was the first to notice the Paras. She ran behind Harper as the little orange insect approached. Marlaey looked across the pair to see the Paras too. The little thing seemed quite full of herself! Harper was inclined to agree, and if Kismit and Marlaey didn't like her, then she wasn't welcome. But he wasn't a rude growlithe, so he nodded to her, <Merry Christmas to you too>.
Everyone watched as the Paras tottled off and wondered who would wander by next! They were all eager to meet new Pokemon, and Kismit was hoping someone would take the limelight off her soon!

::minccino:: pokemon encounter ! the minccino had been around the corner of the bush. he poked his head out now, peering after that paras. he seemed in a mighty awful hurry. the chinchilla pattered out of the bush, proceeding to stop in front of the female trainer. he piped in greeting. < why, hello there! i'm sorry to have bumped into you.. was just on my way to gather myself something to eat. tally-ho! > he grinned from ear to ear. apparently wanting to get on his way. as he didn't stop long. just kept on walking by. it was up to marlaey to decide whether or not she wanted to follow him.
it was usually a bravery thing, following a rodent. who knows where they take you? however, this one was adorable. and very well mannered. he didn't seem like the type of pokemon to lead you into a sewer. but then again, you never know.

Marlaey blinked. Oh! A Minccino! Was he following the Paras?
Little Foot looked up from her meal, calling to the Mincinno as he began walking away, <You're welcome to share our food here if you want>. Harper snapped his head round in surprise. Little Foot loved food! Why on earth did she want to share all of a sudden?! This chinchilla must be special!
Marlaey noticed her Pokemon's interest in the Minccino and she too decided that he was worth calling back. She got up quickly and followed him, "Wait wait! Come join us!"

::minccino:: pokemon encounter ! the chinchilla stopped short. hmm? as the minccino turned his head to look at them, he sat. < me, eat with you? why.. i'd be delighted! thank you, kind fellows. > he chirped, a grin on his face. he pattered back towards them now. his ears swiveling. he patted down his fur, making himself look prim and proper. he laughed. < you are very nice. care to have a battle one we have finished eating? > he asked. hehe. he'd win, probably. maybe. hmm. now that he thought about it. these two pokemon looked tough. it's be a wonderful battle indeed! hehe. this would be amaaazing! the minccino's tail thumped against the floor in excitement.

<Sure thing, I'd love to battle you!> Little Foot said pleasantly as she nudged her bowl over towards their guest. Marlaey sat back down and took out a sandwich (salad because she was a cool hipster vegetarian). She was feeling very good about her journey so far, everything seemed to be working out well. No great upheavals, no disasters, just a smooth run. Ok, so maybe it was cold, but that was manageable! She wasn't a hat or scarf person, but she loved her gloves and they kept her nice and toasty in this weather. Harper of course had his fluffy fur hide, Little foot could retreat into her shell, Ahiga had a hell of alotta downy feathers, and even Kismit had a a beautiful coat to keep her warm. And if anyone really got stuck, they always had their pokeballs to hide in! Kismit was pleased there was a new Pokémon here to take the heat off her. She was fumbling with her food, hoping no one could see. She was very glad to be there, but it would take some time to get to know everyone and get them to like her. Oh she hoped they would like her! Well, Harper seemed to already, and her new trainer.. But what about the others? Ahiga wasn't fazed at all by any of the new happenings. He was just glad to be fed again. He'd missed all the fun (being in his ball) but it didn't really bother him. Once Little Foot had finished her food she blinked up at Marlaey, her tiny leaf quivering with excitement. <Could I battle now?> she asked, knowing her trainer wouldn't exactly understand her, but would get her meaning at least. They all had to work on their communications, but that came with the territory of being a beginner. She grinned at the Minccino, <Hope you're ready!>Marlaey understood what Little Foot wanted once the small turtle turned to their new friend and growled excitedly. A battle! Excellent! "So you want to battle, do you? Alright! Now that you're fed, I hope you'd like some fun Minccino! Let's go Lil Foot, use Superpower!" Marlaey grinned. A fighting move. Perfect. Name: Little Foot Gender: Female Level: 3 Type: Grass Attacks: -Tackle -Withdraw -Superpower Excited to be battling. Used Superpower!

::minccino:: pokemon encounter ! he sat down, all polite-like. ate his food carefully. slowly. he grinned as he ate. happy, full. he felt warm too, despite the weather outside. once full, he rolled back, his stomach only slightly tubby. < thank you kindly.. > he nodded politely. then stood, ready for his opponent. who.. was already ready! the turtwig was all set, it seemed. and already using an attack! he was caught off guard, hit full in the face with the super effective move. he yelped, flying backwards. his little paws gripped the grass, hauling him back down. < nice shot! > he called. then, pretending to bunch up his sleeves, the minccino ran towards him, fists at the ready. aiming to pound on his face.
then, to counter it, the little chinchilla started growling. the fur started puffing up around his ears. he looked quite adorable. but all he was trying to do was make himself look fierce. growling always lowered an opponents attack. and if he kept getting hit with superpower.. well that wouldn't be good at all! the little minccino just kept coming, growling. pounding. hitting. doing whatever he could to get the opponent to slow down. he had to win. he had to! well, he didn't really. it wouldn't matter. he was full fed and felt good. that was all that mattered.
