Pokemon School - Water Pokemon Assignment!

[fallers_npcs]

Today in Pokemon School, there has been an assignment for the classes! Everyone gets to go out on the Ride Pokemon onto the ocean. It's a simple little all day assignment where we get to socialize with people young and old across the classes.

Dressed in clothing suited for actual swimming as well as being on the water, Misty and Professor Kukui are heading up this lesson with Misty's best friend and semi-TA for this lesson Lana!

"All right class, everyone ready? We're going to head out on the Ride Pokemon, so let's get set! Everyone got your fishing poles? We're going to head out to Lana's fishing spot, which is out on the open ocean! It's going to be a beautiful day today, and then we'll head to the site of the Totem Pokemon, Wishiwashi. It'll be a fun day, so please everyone get ready to learn about Water Pokemon!

Sena's out on his own Ride Pokemon, and Yan seems to be his chosen partner for this lesson's exercise. Since she can fly, she seems to be scouting around for any activity on the water's surface...but knowing her personality, she's probably just enjoying herself. Sena himself turns to the closest person he can speak to, a question occurring to him.

"So this Totem Pokemon...what's special about it, anyway?"

He keeps hearing about it, but what makes a Totem Wishiwashi different from a regular one...?

"Ah, you might want to find out for yourself, but Wishiwashi are strong and mysterious things," said Lana with a wink of an eye. She was casting her line into the water as Primarina was sunning herself on the rocks.

"This is where I got my Z-Crystal after all. It's an important place for me."

SO MYSTERIOUS.

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

"You got your Z-Crystal here...?"

Huh.

"And that has something to do with the Totem Pokemon?"

He's only assuming that since she mentioned it in response to his question, but...knowing Lana, he's not entirely sure he'll get a straight answer.

"Mmhmm. In fact, these waters are special. You can find every kind of Water Pokemon here. In fact, I even fished up Kyogre once!" Exclaimed Lana.

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

"...Um..."

Sena's not entirely sure whether to doubt this or not. On the one hand, he's had enough legendary encounters on his own to not discount any other people's stories. On the other hand...is it actually even possible to fish up a Kyogre...? Aren't they supposed to be huge?

"That's...the legendary Pokemon of the oceans...right...?"

please let him have misheard it

"Teehee~!" Exclaimed Lana, giggling as Mallow sighed from her spot nearby.

"Lana's a bit tease, you should take her with a grain of salt. She says she really did a while ago, and Ash can back her up on it but she says her evidence is a Heart Scale." she said with a teasing smile.

"That being said, you can find the Wishiwashi Totem in here. Just keep at it, and you can possibly encourage it. If your heart is one with the Ocean, then it will show itself." said Lana seriously.

"I figured as much..." Lana really did seem like the teasing type...but he decides to turn back to the ocean and focus on his fishing rod.

"One with the...ocean...?"

[fallers_npcs]

"When you're one with the gentle waves, and the rhythm of the ocean, everything falls into place. And then, the line goes taut, and you pull the Pokemon from the sea to do battle with!" Exclaimed Lana. "The battle goes back and forth, a pressure of wills, give and take, it's like a miraculous dance of force, will and never giving up! Unyielding like the ocean, and the gentleness of the waves."
