Pokemon: The Outskirts of Town

[idolpro]

On the outskirts of town you'll find large plots of land, each with a sign with your unit in front. They look like they'd be perfect for cultivating gardens--perhaps from those fruit trees you saw before. There's even space enough that you can build your unit's Pokemon a shelter to live in. There's also a scenic outdoor onsen with tiered pools carved out of the sides of another hill perfect for enjoying a relaxing soak after a hard day spent playing and working.

Holy moly! Koosh, look at you!

[ gabite goes completely underwater for half a second and then springs up, the fins on his arms catching the water and splashing the three of them as he "growls", though this expressions says he's just playing. ]

Duuuuude! [ splashes back! ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Koosh keeps fluffing and flapping, generally attempting to make himself look bigger. Then he starts to glow, a bright, white light.]

[420blazeit]

...!

Hurricane, look.

[ she stops splashing, as does gabite to watch. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Wha - where?

[He tips his head up to look and Koosh, who is on his head, topples straight into the water, still glowing.]

[420blazeit]

I think he's hitting pub- er, evolving!

Sharknado, where is he?

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Sharknado probably doesn't have time to go looking.]

[A minute later, this thing bursts from the onsen in an absolute spray of water and probably also a couple of feathers.]

- whoa!

Koosh?!

[420blazeit]

[ her eyes go wide as koosh burst out from beneath the water. even gabite looks stunned. ]

W- Wow! That's Koosh?! He looks... he looks amazing!!!

[crossmyheartandhope]

He's huge!

[Then, to Koosh:]

Dude, you're huge.

[420blazeit]

HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!

Gabite gab gab!!!!

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Koosh stands up on his legs and flaps his wings, and it sends water flying.]

Brav brav bravi!!

[Hurricane reaches over, careful, to... squoosh his cheeks.]

...yeah. S'definitely Koosh.

[420blazeit]

You look so regal, Koosh.

[ going to bring an arm up to block some of the water. ]

[ gabite moves closer, leaning over to gently bump his head into him. ] Gabite, gab, gabite!

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Koosh headbumps back, and then considers Gabite for a moment - leans in, to start an attempt at preening. How do you preen a shark? Not even Koosh knows, but he is still trying.]

Guess you were right he might like the onsen. He's like soaking wet and he doesn't even care.

[420blazeit]

Ga... bite...??? [ he seems a bit confused at first, but then he seems to kind of get what koosh is doing. he's not sure how he's supposed to be preened, but he's content to let koosh do whatever he likes. ]

Who could hate this place! It's amazing. Alright, everybody, I want another picture, so the both of you come here. Selfie time!

[crossmyheartandhope]

Me, too?

[420blazeit]

Of course you too! Get over here!

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Gets over there, too!]

We're gonna have a hell of a time getting us all in one shot.

[420blazeit]

You're not wrong.

Ok, Koosh how about you get behind and Sharknado you pop up in front and me and Hurricane will squish real close! We can totally do this guys!

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Koosh goes behind, and Hurricane reaches up to squoosh his cheeks and bring him down closer.]

[Then he leans in real close to Dva.]

Like this?

[420blazeit]

[ she holds the phone out in front as gabite pops up from the water and squishes between the two of them. he opens his mouth to 'smile'. ] Looking good... ok, now, hold the pose everybody. Oh, and don't forget to smile.

Smile~!

[ snaps a few photos in quick succession! ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Smiles!!!]

[Koosh chooses exactly now to decide that Hurricane's hair needs preening.]

[420blazeit]

[ she gets a shot of the before, during, and after. ]

[ laughs as she moves out of the group to look at the pictures. ]

Koosh! You couldn't wait until after?

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Can't talk, busy preening.]

[But Hurricane laughs, and goes to ruffle him affectionately.]

Dude. We gotta work on your timing.

[420blazeit]

[ gabite pops out of the water and spits some at hurricane and koosh, effectively messing up his hair. play with me! then he disappears under the water again... but since it's clear it's plainly obvious where he is. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Is it bad form to splash at an onsen? It's probly bad form to splash at an onsen.

[He does it anyway, cupping his hands and making a mini wave headed toward Gabite.]

[Koosh gets in on the action, too, spreading his wings and splashing with those.]

[...it is way more effective.]

[420blazeit]

PFT. I don't see a sign telling us not to splash, but also... who's going to enforce it. [ she laughs and helps hurricane and koosh in splashing gabite. ]

[ gabite ducks back under the surface to avoid the onslaught, moving away, but then immediately jetting toward them! he springs up and cuts through the water with his fin arms, which immediately sends a small tidal wave in their direction. ]

Oh no, the dreaded Sharknami!
