Alola Farmers Harvest Festival!

[fallers_npcs]

There's been signs leading up to the announcement and the four islands have been hard at work preparing for such an event. The four islands have been preparing their ferry's for such an occasion all week, but now, it's finally here! The Alola Famers Harvest Festival has begun!

From the Week of the 10th to the 15th, the Farmers Harvest Festival will be available. This means that not only the people of Alola will be celebrating the turn of the season with a huge All-Four Island Farmers Market in the four major town ports, but also there will be music, dancing, and all kinds of adventure just waiting to be found.

But there has also been a surprising upswing in sightings of special Pokemon in the area.

Pokemon from Galar, Alcremie in all of its various forms have been appearing across the islands, drawn by the food and fun. However, some of them are up to mischief and can be found in various spots of the island, stealing food and/or possibly making trouble.

It's up to you to find and deal with these Alcremie as you see fit. But be careful, one of them might have a surprise in store for those unaware!

Towards the end of the week, there will be a surprise appearance from a famous chef duo, one from the Sinnoh Region's famous Seven Stars Restaurant!

Roman and Kylie will be offering a chance to cook a full 7 Course Meal for anyone who can defeat them in battle, for them and their party. Of course, the opportunity is open to everyone involved. All you have to do -- is defeat their champion. Who is their champion? Well, we'll just have to see about that!


Have fun everyone! And please, enjoy!

"You're doing fine dear!" Exclaimed Anela. "Your work has improved quite significantly since we first started. You know which berries are which now, and your service time has improved by leaps and bounds. I think we can move you onto deliveries when you want to later on to help out with the rest of the latter harvest."

"And brown bars, they're like processed food bars," replied Adora, letting Fred take his drink with a happy neigh.

"I grew up in the Fright Zone, as a military kid. Nothing but rations, training, the Princesses are Evil, stuff like that. Turns out, I was the bad guy. Lot of things happened since then. Now I'm here, and I got Fred. This is sort of a cleansing trip for me." She smiled at Fred who was sipping from a straw.

"Fred's good to me. He listens when I need to talk."

"I'm not afraid of... okay, yes, I am." Ellen said, not even bothering not to fight back at that. "Alright, here we GO!"

And she launches the Pokeball at the stunned Alcremie

"He and I traveled together a year ago," replied Serena as she chased the wayward suit down.

As they chased the suit, it was headed for a stall which was labeled "Stark Repairs" where it was blaring loud rock music. But as luck would have Peter at this moment, Tony's back was turned, and he was bent over a device with the music blaring so he couldn't even hear the yelling in the background as the suit buzzed the pavilion.

"Whoops!" Exclaimed Serena, skidding by as she narrowly missed the table and dropped a couple of tools but he didn't even noticed, the music was too loud as they continued chasing the rotom.

The stunned Alcremie is struck by the Pokeball and it sucks it in, the Pokeball dropping to the ground. It wobbles three times and there's a ding before it lays shut. "Good job, though it was a pretty easy capture." said Gary, walking over and handing the Pokeball to Ellen.

"I'm Gary Oak, nice to meet you."

[hearts_beat]

“Ellen Kurokawa. I’ve been here for awhile, but it’s been hard adjusting.” She said, taking the Pokeball.

A year ago? So how old was he? Or her? She didn't look any older than twelve at the most. Oh well, now's not the time for that investigation and his attention is immediately on that booth. His eyes go wide as they get nearer and nearer but Mr Stark seems busy. He winces when a few tools fall to the floor. If he picks them up, will he get caught? If he doesn't then Tony might wonder why they're on the floor.

"Hey, Shelob, string shot." He says to her. Hoping she can snag the tools on the ground and he can put them back on the table while he rushes by it. And still hopefully not get caught.

"Nice to meet you, and you too Haunter," said Gary, as Umbreon made a noise greeting the pair.

"I'm from Kanto," said said Gary. "But I'm also a teacher at the school. Teaching Battling. You might want to give it a try."

[fallers_npcs]

The tools go up onto the table and Tony doesn't even notice, as the pair zoom by. "Friend of yours?" asked Serena as she located the suit. "There he is!"

She pointed out at the Spider-Suit which was fleeing towards the open marketplace. "We can catch it if we speed up! It's headed for Master Oranguru's stall!"

[hashtagparkerluck]

"Yeah-he's my mentor." And he's gonna be in so much trouble later but he can worry about that. Later. Or all day because that's how anxiety works.

"Okay, Shelob, how about you run on ahead along the top of the stalls and I'll see you in a minute?" Peter offers before throwing his elbow up to give her a boost.

"Spinarak!" Shelob agrees, raising one of her legs in a 'leave it to me!' motion.

"If you get close use String Shot!" He calls out to her. "Okay, Serena. You go around the left side, I'll take it on the right."

He's gonna regret this, there's no way to hide his face right now so he'll have to act fast.

"Got it, okay, let's go Braixen!"

"Brai!" exclaimed Braixen, brandishing her wand as the pair headed out, looking for a better vantage point for the runaway man in the weird pajamas to snag him.

"Can we get him from here?" she wondered to herself as she closed in on the juice stand.

[hearts_beat]

“Ah, yeah, school...” Ellen laughed sheepishly at. “I really should, but...”

The Haunter slipped back out, waving at the two.

[fallers_npcs]

"I'm honestly surprised that you've got a partner you're afraid of," said Gary, concerned. "Some people would have traded them away by now, but he seems very attached to you. If the Tapus thought he would be a good fit for you, there must be a reason for it."

[hashtagparkerluck]

Peter takes the right and picks up his speed to a little faster than what would be normal for a human and moves to head Spider-Rotom off at the pass. It's close enough that he can get it with his webs, a quick glance around to make sure no one's watching and he fires! The web connects and Spider-Rotom looks back at him.

Peter's victory is short lived as he crashes into someone else and the tug startles Rotom-Man into firing off a discharge which goes right through Peter and he accidentally releases the webbing he'd fired at the suit. And it's off again. Although, now there's the web trailing behind it.

"Oh my god! I'm so, so sorry, are you okay?" Oh wait no, that's not someone. That's a Pokemon. "...Uh.. you okay?"

[hashtagparkerluck]

"Oh man, that's a mood." Peter says with a nod. He loves sour gummies more than practically anything.

"Huh? I'm afraid you've got the wrong person." Peter says, trying to sound confused. "See, I wasn't here until just recently." Two months ago. Whatever.

"Spinarak!" Shelob confirms it. She's a great partner.

"Peter has a very busy schedule and has gone on five dates with another three to be considered." Dwayne informs him. "He can't be the person you're referring too."

"...Did you just say I have another three? I don't want to go on dates! Stop making me date!"

"Y-yes!" Sena stands at attention, an old holdover from football practice. "A double battle's fine with me!"

On seeing the Snorlax and Girafirig be released, Monta pumps his fist and "kyaa"s a battle cry, which Sena chuckles at.

"I know, I know...you want to try, right? Then, your teammate this time will be..." He picks out a Poke Ball from his waist and tosses it out, revealing a Ninjask wearing a small pink hair barrette shaped like a flower. It buzzes immediately to Monta's side, and Monta chatters excitedly at it.

"Nin, you're up!"

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

"Heh, well...it hasn't been that long, yeah...but that run-in with you was pretty memorable, you know? I don't think I could have mistaken you for anyone else!"

it's hard to not forget a dude who just chills out on the ceiling like a spider-mon

"Aha...ha..." Somehow...that Rotom is kinda reminiscent of somebody... "I understand that feeling, too..." So many forced encounters...arrangements...etc...

Meanwhile, Nin happily enjoys her gummi, oblivious to everything else. Delicious.

Spider-Rotom (Peter Prompt)

[takeittothebridge]

Bridge had mostly kept to himself during most of the festival, a bit preoccupied with egg-sitting these days. He'd dropped by occasionally, but hadn't stayed too long during the previous days.

Naturally, it's the last day when he decided to stay a bit longer when all the craziness started happening. He just manages to avoid getting shocked by the Spider-Suit while grabbing his Piplup to keep it out of the way.

"Dude, way to be a buzzkill," he called out. "I just came to have a good time."

Naturally, he had a Water Pokemon, which didn't do well against electric attacks. Perfect.

Afternoons

[takeittothebridge]

Bridge had only meant to drop by quickly to pick up a few things when he noticed the stand with electronic devices, and he couldn't help pausing as he looked them over.

"Impressive," he said. "You wouldn't happen to know much about putting together electronic musical equipment, would you?"

[takeittothebridge]

"Hm...tough call," Bridge said as he looked over the choices. "What exactly is the pink stuff on top of the Rainbow Twist?"

"I consider myself to be a fan of Iron Maiden," replied Tony as he looked up from a circuit board. "What're you looking for? A synthesizer? Sound board? Customized amp? One of those little percussion thingamabobs that people play drums on nowadays? I can make practically anything with the right schematics."

[fallers_npcs]

"Guru," replied Oranguru, getting up and righting Peter onto his feet. Brushing the harried boy off, he smiled and patted him on the head as Serena rounded the corner. "Oranguru," replied Oranguru, gesturing towards the Rotom-man as he grabbed the trailing webbing and yanked, causing Rotom-man to jerk back.

A majestic struggle ensured as Oranguru started to whirl him around.

[fallers_npcs]

With the battle started, the official judge exclaimed, "This is a two on two double battle. No time limit! Roman and Kylie of the Seven Star Restaurant vs our challenger for the meal of the day! Let the battle begin!"

Quick as a flash, Roman took the first command. "Snorlax use Mega Punch!"

"Girafarig, Bite attack lets go!" exclaimed Kylie, directing their Pokemon towards the pair of Pokemon in tandem.

[hashtagparkerluck]

"Oh, good. I was worried-Oh My God!" He lets out in alarm as his suit struggles and spin and-well there it goes. Way off into the distance.

Well, it can't really hurt anyone, at least. If it's not wrecking havoc on the festival.

"Uh... thanks for the assist!" He offers a wave at the Oranguru before starting to dart off in the direction the Spider Rotom was thrown.

[hashtagparkerluck]

"Man, I really have no idea what you're talking about. I'm telling you, that wasn't me." This is what he gets for using his powers so casually, isn't it? He really should have known better.

"Dwayne? He's all the time trying to schedule me for weird things and even more dates. He thinks I need a girl friend for whatever the reason." He rolls his eyes at the rotom.

"Peter will change his mind once he's found love. His dating profile is very popular and he has a few requests for second dates." Dwayne says proudly. "But those are scheduled for after homework."

"I don't need to find love. Stop that!"
