Episode 9: Welcome to the World of Pokemon -- Again! The Galar Trip!

[fallers_npcs]

Welcome to the Galar Region everyone!

After a long trip, you've all arrived, rested up and now are touring the countryside before heading to Wyndon. Along the way, you and your classmates get to experience the gentleness of the city before heading to the biggest city of the nation.

Some stops are along the way as follows.





First stop is the big and majestic Wild Area around Motostoke and Hammerlocke. This rich, lush area is full of natural beauty, and is a haven for Pokemon. Trains, trainers and Pokemon all travel through this landscape, as you can see dens lit up across the landscape. Your tour guide will inform you that these Dens are full of Dynamax Pokemon, and can be battled and caught if you wish to test your mettle.

There are Pokemon of all kinds, not quite all of the Pokemon you might find in other regions but Pokemon are migrating in and out of Galar at all times with unique and bizzare forms.




Incredible looking Stow-on-Side is another stop where the trains run, yes, trains run to Stow-on-Side, not EVERYONE walks here, silly! and Here, you can find the historical murals of the landscape, the Fighting Gym run by Bea (when it's not swapped out with Allister every other half a year but this time it's Bea's turn), and maybe if you're plucky enough, Bea will let you challenge her gym. Who knows, she might accept.



Hullbury Gym is in the opposite direction and we'll be taking the Train there as well, or you could rent a bike and hoof it across the bridge, it's up to you. Or a Corviknight Taxi. Either way, we'll be setting out from Hammerlocke in the middle of the week to visit Nessa.


In the middle of the week, we will arrive at our destination. The beautiful city of Wyndon.



Wyndon is a bustling metropolis where some peculiar going-ons have been taking place. While it shouldn't bother you at the moment, Chairman Rose himself has come to meet you and the students with a genuine smile on his face along with his placid secretary, and none other than Champion Leon.

All are very enthusiastic to meet the students, and some of the Fallers who have decided to come on the trip, including the chaperones.

In all, you've been put up at the swankiest hotel thanks to the Chairman's goodwill, and have fun experiencing the life of Wyndon for the next ten days!

This is where the real Mystery Begins, as reports of strange red light has been affecting citizen's Pokemon, and Dynamaxing them once in a while...

Not everyone walks, but Sena sure does! He can't help it - running is in his blood, and this isn't the first region he's hiked through. It's a bit lonely compared to when he went through Sinnoh with everyone else, but the liveliness of the landscape compared to back then takes off the edge.

Sena's out and about with his whole team like usual, and it's not uncommon to find him in the depths of the Wild Area trying to outrun the Pokemon that chase after him. It's become sort of a challenge - if he can't outrun them, his Pokemon join into the fray. Although...some of the slower Pokemon are taking the appearance of this fast human as a challenge...

"Hah...haaah!" This is...probably one of the rarer times that Sena's been so exuberant, actually. It's the first real long hike he's had in a while...

"Feels like we're travelling all over again, ah...?" His Pokemon all respond with varying levels of energy, although all of them do seem to be enjoying the time they're spending together. It's certainly a motley crew.

"I am have so much fun here!" Exclaimed Peni as she hopped along. "Too bad I can't bring SP//dr with me, but I'd like to see someone get a mecha through customs!"

Her Ariados Mayday trundled alongside her, sniffing at the flowers and at everything else as she asked, "What to catch first? Anything you guys see that's good?"

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

"I know somebody back home who could probably manage it..."

Then again, there probably isn't a single person on earth who could stop Hiruma from getting anything he wanted. Sena chuckles weakly at the thought before shaking himself off.

"There's so many Pokemon here I haven't seen before..." He grins as a Galarian Zigzagoon darts past him, its characteristic running pattern so similar to his. "Kinda makes it hard to decide who to challenge first, actually!"

[lucky_peni]

"I know that feeling! Hey look at that!" Exclaimed Peni, pointing at the Blipbug that squirmed out of the underbrush. "Aww, it's cute!"

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

Sena blinks owlishly at the Blipbug. It's cute, but it also looks...squashed? Stretched? Are eyes supposed to get that big?

"Kinda reminds me of a Scatterbug, actually...except with bigger eyes."

[lucky_peni]

"It's adorable that's what it is," said Peni. "Hey there little thing!"

Blipbug blinked at them, the Pokemon squeaking at them curiously.

Wes has also been adventuring, under his Morpeko's insistence. For most part, he's been following behind the excited mouse, eagerly chittering and sniffing anything it can see. He's been taking a leisurely stroll but because of his ungodly stamina, he eventually catches up to Sena.

"... It's a nice place," he comments, as if Sena had been talking to him. "It's very green... And yet there are bits that are sandy. And snowy?"

He doesn't understand the weather here.

Morpeko doesn't either. Nor does he seem to care. He eagerly runs up to Sena's Pokemon! Hello! New friends?! Are you for fighting or playing?!
