Episode 5: Hot and Cold Flex Off!

[fallers_npcs]

Today, the Class is off to the Hot Springs! Until Monday, they’ll be on a school trip to Mount Lanakila, where they will spend two days and two nights at the mountain. Here, the school will learn about the native Snow Pokemon. However…

Kukui frowned in worry at the Mountain which was… suspiciously barren of snow in this area. The ground was green with grass, and it was swelteringly hot. “Sorry everyone! It seems like we’ve got unseasonable weather!” Exclaimed Kukui. “Still, there’s no worry here! Unload your things, get settled in and we’ll still tour the Ice Caves at 2pm! Until then, try and relax. Maybe if you want a nice Heatwave, try out the hot springs!”

No worries everyone, there's plenty to see. Lots of Pokemon still. Though, the people at the Hot Springs could need your help, getting the springs back to working order. The Owner could use people with technical help to look at the pipes, people with strong backs to get the springs in order and at 2pm everyone will go to the caves unless you're helping the Owner.

Wes gives a small nod to the Alcremie and he shakes the Pokemon's hand, surprisingly delicate despite his rough appearance. It really is cute and Wes keeps calm despite the sudden throb in his heart.

"Is she that shy?"

[shadowslipping]

"Aaah, very much so...she's opened up a little, but I haven't had the heart to even send her into battles yet- she doesn't seem to want to, so I don't intend to push."

"I see... Alola's peaceful... so she won't be forced to fight. It's very different in Orre."

Wes lets go of the little Pokemon's hand. He looks at his own glove. ... Creamy.

"That's not surprising to hear, if importing is such a large portion of things there...from the sounds of even that, battling must be fairly important."

[withoutcontrolofmyself]

"If you have Pokemon, you're strong. You can defend yourself. And battling is a way to force what you want. It's why all battles are double battles... so there's always one Pokemon ready to defend the trainer if the other is battling."

[shadowslipping]

"Quite a brutal region over all...Would you say... ...Is 'Orre' at war?"

[withoutcontrolofmyself]

Wes shakes his head.

"Orre's always been like that. Just rough country. Brutal."
