  • Stage 10 - Route 7, Rivière Walk​




    Time at Stage Start: 1 PM​

    With an exciting party drawing to a close, another plot of Cinder's stopped for now and a world full of possibilities still awaiting them, our heroes set out from the historic site of Camphrier town, the scenic walkway of Route 6 anlavish luxury of Parfum Palace, leaving new bonds, successes, joys and most importantly, lessons, in their wake.

    However life is never dull for a pokémon trainer, and now our intrepid young junior trainers head onto Route 7, the famous and beautiful Rivière walk. With what is known to be the longest walking trail in the entire Kalos region, sidelined by two contrasting types of wild pokémon habitats (grasslands and the shimmering water of the River for which the route is named), many veteran trainers retire here in order to make use of the many facilities that dot the long stretch of land. What facilities? Well I'm glad you asked, the ever growing Berry Fields Farm produces most of the berries and plants used in the creation of pokémon food all over the region and beyond, by providing pouches of food and supplies to trainers whom assist them in their work, they form a symbiotic relationship with the trainers whom retire to the area with both working with and relying upon each other.

    For those whom haven't quite lost the spark of battle, the Battle Chateau stands ever looming in its luxury over the water halfway down the path, ever visible to all those travelling along the route. Four mysterious and powerful young women serve as the self proclaimed "Battle Chatelaines", these trainers are rumored to be masters of the technical side of a pokémon battle and every year they hold a prestigious event known as the Chateau Tournament, wherein multiple trainers go all out against one another for the chance to face off against these ladies at their best. During official league time such as now, they serve as instructors and opponents, using levelled teams to match their opponents and test their mettle, while striving to show them the intricacies of high level battling.

    And last, but certainly not least, as life goes on for all living things... so too must it do so for pokémon. The pokémon daycare provides many services, raising pokémon for trainers periodically, watching over pokémon in a trainers absence... but their most famous function is their knowledge of pokémon biology and their ability to provide the perfect conditions for two pokémon to procreate and create an egg. High caliber trainers are known to breed their pokémon so that their offspring will be powerful allies, however it is imparitive to this old couple that breeding is done out of love... and thus they won't allow just anyone to receive an egg, only those whom show genuine kindness and lvoe for their pokémon.

    Regardless of what you choose to do on this, the newest of our adventures frontiers, the potential for growth in one way or another may be higher now than ever before.

    Missions:​
    A new stage and a new mechanic right? This particular stage will be introducing a variation on the regular event battles, tag event battles. It's exactly what it sounds like, two players have to team up to battle a pair of the lovely Battle Chatelains in a four on four multi-battle with each trainer using two pokémon each.

    Apart from that, I mentioned this briefly in the discord and now it's time to explain the mechanics of breeding. Breeding involves leaving two pokémon in the day care for a full day IC. Once a day has passed those two pokémon, assuming they have opposing gender, will produce an egg. :lennycat:. While in the games, it's a set factor that the baby will share the mothers species andihrit moves from the father, things re a little bit different in Z to allow players more freedom:
    • Pokémon bred by the players can have either parents species, chosen by the player OOC; do note however that from your characters perspective this is entirely random.
    • Bred pokémon inherit a move from their father and their mother, one each. You do NOT have to pay attention to canonical egg moves either, if you can make a good case as to why your pokémon can use the move they wish for them to inherit, then it can have it. The parents MUST know this move currently.
    • You MUST clear up 1: What spcies the baby will be. 2: What moves it will know. 3: If those moves are allowed on the chosen pokémon. Before placing the parent pokémon in day care.

    Finally, to encourage mor eplayer interaction and characterization of pokémon in the RP, the famed "Masuda Method" makes a sort of cameo appearance here. While not acknowledged as a factor IC, if the parent pokémon belong to two different players and not to one player alone, then a ten sided dice will be rolled by the GMs. If the dice result equals to ten, the baby will be a shiny pokémon. However, you won't know if it's shiny or not until it hatches!

    That's all on Pokémon Breeding as a mechanic, feel free to direct any more questions about this at Jay via Discord.

    Now then, without further ado, on to the missions:





    [EVENT BATTLE] OPEN ★ Mission 1:​
    Spoiler:


    Spoiler:





    [OPEN] Mission 1:​
    Various veteran trainers with a wise disposition and plenty of world knowledge are relaxing in the Battle Chateau and watching te rookies battle the Chatelaines. They've got plenty of pointers to share and advice to give, as well as a bit of fight left in tem for some more practical demonstrations. Take this opportunity to battle against evolved pokémon, get some free advice and attempt to hone your skills as a battler.

    Reward:
    2 Great Ball, 1 Luxury Ball, 400 Poké



    Mission 2:​
    Youngster, or should we say, Move Tutor Joey has matured a lot since your last encounter. His Rattata has evolved into a powerful Raticate and he's been studying under various move tutors in the cities and locations he's visited thus far. Still, Joey being Joey, has gotten over-zealous in his training and has decided to test out his talents with some in the field experience tutoring the move headbutt. While demonstrating the move with his Raticate to a lass in the area, he inadvertedly angered a swarm of Volbeat and Illumise calling the old oak home. As you walk down route 7 you see the young man running past with his Raticate, shouting and screaming in fear as the swarm sqiftly rushed behind him. Some things never change, looks like he could use some help.

    Reward:
    Tutor Headbutt to any Pokémon, 500 Poké, 2 Oran Berries



    Mission 3:​
    A group of fishermen are taking to the river on their boats and offering any trainer willing to take up a rod and join them. They're competing to see who can fish up the biggest Magikarp, a monthly tradition here on the Route 7. Any trainer willing to join in and learn is being offered one of the higher quality rods in the fishermans stock. While on the water, listen to a few of the fisherman's tales perhaps, they too are wise in their own way and you may find that the monthly tradition is less about catching fish and more about keeping their craft alive.

    Reward:
    1 Good Rod


    Mission 4:​
    Dotting the riverside all along Rivière Walk one can find artists galore, painting the scenic beauty of the route by the riverside. They along with their Smeargle are constantly looking for inspiration and competing to see who can capture the true essence of the waters shimmering splendor. To this end, many a time a competition will spring up between multiple artists... although it is rarely ever met with a victor, since every artist present sees their own work as the purest and most accurate representation of Rivière Walk. Just your luck that as you pass by, they would call you over to judge in their stead, to solve this problem. They have promised you a rather enticing reward in return for your efforts however, a pokémon egg said to contain a rare and elegant pokémon that would inspire works of art for generations.

    Reward:
    A pure white egg with blue floral patterns.



    Mission 5:​
    Famous Pokémon artist Acel Thauvin, known for his unique style and now recently caught Shiny Smeargle and Regular Smeargle pair, is at a loss. While travelling by carriage alonge Route 7 his vehicle was held up by a sudden shout. Upon stepping outside to see what was wrong... he was knocked unconscious! Now awake and unaware of his assailant... he finds his carriage removed of all Poké, supplies and... perhaps most importantly, his prized painting which he was transporting across the region. Whatever attacked him, it was strong enough to knock out the Mudsdale pulling his carriage along and silent enough to catch him completely unawares. He'll give you a reward, he swears, but he simply must have his paintings returned with the criminal whom took them brought to justice.

    Reward:
    1500 Poké, 1 Signed Art Set (Paint bow, easel, brushes.)



    Mission 6:​
    Near the West Side of the river... something is stirring, something incredibly dangerous that if not stopped could take lives and damage the local ecosystem irreperably. They say a man in a black suit released it into the water and left without a word. The Atrocious Pokémon... Gyarados. Yet its scales are pure red, similar to the shiny once said to have been encountered at a certain lake in Johto. It is unlike anything ever seen before in terms of its power... and while now it is content to attack wild pokémon it comes across, people have noticed its behavior getting more and more violent. If it isn't stopped soon it may be too late to do so.

    Reward:
    Rare Candy (Automatically allows pokémon to learn the next move in its learnset), Cloned Gyarados Embers.



    Mission 7:​
    The Berry Fields farm is famous for providing trainers with supplies and assistance in return for a little bit of hard labor and assistance. There's no harm in helping them out for a little while and the reward sounds worthwhile. Right now they seem to have one problem in particular, a certain type of pokémon is popping out of the ground and stealing crops before darting back beneath the surface, seems as if the little troublemakers are coming from the enarby caves looking for food. The owner, Old Granny Sitrus, is looking for a trainer with a good head on their shoulders to drive the burrowing menace out.

    Reward:
    Spinklotad, 1 Berry Fields Supply Packet(5 Sitrus Berries, 2 Lum Berries, 1 "Super-Effective Weakening" berry of your choice.)


    [OPEN]Mission 8:​
    Over at Berry Fields farm bug types are a constant presence and problem. While working the fields and tilling the land in return for the promised Berry Fields Supply Packet, you're sure to come across a great number of insects trying to steal the precious fruit from right under the farmers noses. If you spot any rustling berry trees as you go about your work, be sure to scare off the thieving miscreants.

    Reward:
    Sprinklotad, 1 Berry Fields Supply Packet(5 Sitrus Berries, 2 Lum Berries, 1 "Super-Effective Weakening" berry of your choice.)



    Mission 9​
    A psyduck has an incredibly bad headache near the riverside after being exposed to the effects of a vial of water type boosting mystic water, leading to its psychic powers going out of control. A certain blonde haired trainer has dropped off some secret medicine in order to alleviate the poor thing but nobody can get close to it... as soon as they draw near the psychic power launchedthem away as Psyduck totally loses control. If you can find a way to get close enough to administer the medicine, curretly in the posesin of an old fisherman nearby, then you might be able to help the pokémon out. An easy way to fix the problem would be to knock the psyduck out and administer it then... but people may not take kindly to such a violent option...

    Reward:
    1 Crystal Vial of Mystic Water, 1 TM Psybeam



    Mission 10:​
    A certain Grovyle at the pokémon day care has fallen head over heels in love with a Helioptile staying there at the same time. No matter what efforts he makes however, he just can't seem to get her to recognize her. He's tried looking tough, cool, cute... eyrthing he can think of but he just can't seem to get her attention and it's shattering his self confidence and image. Maybe if you help him out he can reward you? He seems more than willing to have the assistance right now.

    Reward:
    Luck Incense


    [OPEN] Mission 11:​
    The Pokémon Day Care couple are known for their kindness and discipline when it comes to raising pokémon. They know all the tricks in the book when it comes to raising the pokémon native to the Kalos Region... but they only offer their services to those kind of heart. Sometimes this is apparent to them and they will need no proof of your disposition, but if they have reason to doubt you, they will challenge you to a battle to assure that you're the type of trainer deserving of their assistance. Get past this test of character through nature of battle and they'll offer their breeding facilities and raising techniques for your pokémon to use as you please. (In battle the day care man will challenge you to a 1 on 1 battle. The pokémon he uses will be the fully evolved form of any wild pokémon that has been available up to this point.)

    Reward:
    1 Day Care Membership (Allows pokémon to be bred and trained at the pokémon day care. Pokémon may spend a stage training at the day care to automatically learn the next move in their learnset.)


    [OPEN]Mission 12:​
    Every month or so the local Oricorio fly down to the flower fields below and partake of the local nectars in order to change their feathers and take on a different form. Bird watchers delight in watching the magnificent pokémon change en masse in a truly splendid spectacle. Often times they leave items and dance for onlookers, as if to thank those watching for viewing their transformation... after all what is a dancer without an audience? The items left behind can often be useful for trainers on the scene, not to mention this event offers a rare and worthwhile opportunity to battle and capture a pokémon that is usually only found in Alola.

    Reward:
    Charcoal OR Magnet OR Spell Tag OR Twisted Spoon OR Sharp Beak

    I'll claim Mission 10, and after that go for open Mission 1. And if anybody wants to JP, I'll do the Event Battle too.

    EDIT: I'll go for 8 after 10, then open 1 and possibly the Event Battles. Not claiming it, but just giving a heads up.

    Stage 11 - Ambrette Town​




    Time at Stage Start: 7 PM​

    With our heroes having bested the concrete jungles of Lumiose, and the suburan mythical wonders of Camphrier town, it comes time for a new challenge. The vast landscape of Kalos finally reers it's head. Following the quaint and relatively peaceful ventures of Riviere way, one can expect more defiance from Muraille coasts stubborn plane. First though, Ambrette town awaits.

    With many thanks to Mr.Houto and his team, Ambrette town is now as easy to get to as it's ever been. Rather than taking the long and difficult trek through the upper half of Muraille coast, travellers can simply walk down the simple and convenient path, straight to the popular town. Since Connecting Cave had it's path blockaded, Houto's path has been the only accessible route to the progress past Riviere. Ambrette Town draws both fossil finatics and fish fans alike, as the coastal town holds both a fossil lab and an aquarium. Fishermen and archeologists can both make a living in this fascinating synergy of contrast. Groudon and Kyogre would be proud.

    Not that it's all study and obsessive hobbies. More laid back visitors to the city will be happy to know just enjoying the Kalos sun on the beach is also an option. Relaxing on the beach offers more than just swimming and volleyball. Parasol ladies run these areas, and when they want to see a battle, they are rarely refused.

    With the current Manning's Fossil Company saga still ongoing, many of the townfolk have gathered around the building in the hopes that they may get their hands on a rare fossil pokemon. It isnt ideal, but this seems to be the inevitable fate of Manning's. Perhaps some travelling trainers could benefit from a bad situation.



    Pokémon Available (Level 28-32):

    Ambrette Beach:​

    geodude-alola.gif






    Fossils:​
    I guess this kinda counts as a new mechanic, so I'll introduce it here. With Ambrette town comes all the fossily fossil fun. Fossils work in a similar vein to breeding, so this wont be a long explanation. In order to redeem a fossil, you simply have the fossil and wait and bring it to the fossil lab. They'll do the rest. Fossils cant be recovered until the beginning of the stage after they are dropped off. In other words, three hours IC.

    Missions:

    [EVENT BATTLE] OPEN ★ Mission 1:​
    Spoiler:
    Spoiler:

    Reward
    TM Stealth Rock + TM Flash Cannon


    OPEN ★ Mission 2:​
    The fall of Manning's Fossil company has been a long time coming. Much as Ambrette's unified defence has brought the town closer, it hasnt quite been enough to stop the transaction. At this point, it's a case of prolonging the inevitable. A defeated Mr Manning has finally accepted a bid, and will be selling the fossil company. Many have seen this as an oppourtunity, as the remaining spare fossils he has are being auctioned of. A word with Mr Manning would certainly go a long way to restoring some faith in his research.

    Possible Rewards at the Auction:
    • Helix Fossil
    • Root Fossil
    • Plume Fossil

    Reward for extended Mission:
    Aerodactylite



    [OPEN] Mission 1:​
    Ambrette beach is always an exciting place to be. Trainers are always offered a challenge by the parasol ladies who frequent the resort. The dont just challenge you to a battle themselves, they assign opponents based on their observations. These battles are always very interesting and tend to draw a crowd amongst beach goers. Those that refuse the challenge are left buried in the sand by everyone who witnessed the refusal. You really cant say no to these ladies.

    Reward:
    TM Draining Kiss



    Mission 2:​
    A bunch of young entrepreneurs have come running from the water, claiming that their speedboat was sunk by some sort of sea creature. While these aristocrats do have a reputation for exaggerating bad situations in order to get their own way, the black marks on one escapees leg is probably proof enough. If what they're saying is true, someone may need to hunt for the creature using strong pokemon or lure them out themselves.

    Reward:
    x3 Dive Ball + 1000 Poke



    [OPEN]Mission 3:​
    The Poke x Human Volleyball competition is right around the corner. While you may be a little early for the competition itself, the beach is full of people training for the highly anticipated event. Little Nikcy wants to compete in the tournament, but has been constantly ridiculed for how small her and her pokemon are. This girl and her Inkay wont give up, as she's determined to compete. All she needs to truly test her skills is somebody to play against.

    Reward:
    Flame Orb



    Mission 4:​
    A blind former fisherman is really struggling to find his mojo. Ever since he lest his best friend Probo, travelling just isnt the same. The rock type was his compass, his true navigator. Life just isnt the same without hime. He couldnt have gotten that far though, since...Probo is blind too. The whole situation is a mess. With both Probo, and the old man missing and blind, they couldve truly gotten anywhere. Please help to find them.

    Reward:
    Scope Lens + 400 Poke


    Mission 5:​
    A few kids have found themselves wondering onto Maurille coasts upper segments, and are now stuck. While they could usually just be rescued by a ranger or someone of authority, some powerful looking Ursaring have decided to hold the kids hostage. What could they possibly want with these kids?

    Reward:
    5x Honey + 500 Poke


    OPEN Mission 6:​
    The thing about the safari zone, is that it's exclusive to land pokemon. Well Ambrette aquarium aims to fix that. Complete with rental scuba gear, the aquarium allows trainers to dive into the deep blue, catching as many pokemon from their giant reserve as they can with the thirty pokeballs given, and of course, within the time limit. At three-hundred poke the fee is quite steep, but with a multitude of fish to choose from, this offers a fun test for any aspiring trainer.

    Reward:
    The ability to catch all rod exclusive pokemon.


    Mission 7:​
    The pokemon fan club are hard at work trying to find a hot new meme for everyone to enjoy.The whole Cinder ordeal and losing the Manning's company has the townfolk down, and it would nice to liven everyone up with some laughs. They'd be so greatful to the meme king or meme queen that could help them out. They're offering some nice rewards for it too.

    Reward:
    TM Shockwave


    [OPEN]Mission 8:​
    An excavation site just to the south of the town has discovered some interesting relics. While it's supposed to be reserved for authorised personel only, it still might be worth checking things out.

    Reward:
    Comet Shard



    Mission 9​
    One of the town's residents has succeeded in building his house in the side of a mountain. While many hikers and fossil maniacs are impressed with the amazing architecture, the resident does seem to be having problems. His electronics arent working. While he has asked an electrician or two to help him out, they seem to be struggling with a few hostile Geodude that have taken shelter and blocked the circuit. While normal geodude wouldnt usually be a problem, the electricians have reported seeing electrical geodude down there. If someone was to help out, the rock lover does have some old trinkets he's willing to give away.

    Reward:
    500 Poke + Hard Stone



    Mission 10:​
    A miraculous emergence seems to have happened in one of the tanks. at the aquarium. An egg has appeared seemingly spontaniously. While specialists have suggested the egg must be removed immediately, the aquarium see it as one of their prize attractions and dont want to let it go. The egg scientists have yet been unable to identify the egg, but feel it would be best in the hands of a travelling trainer in order to hatch, since it's parents are nowhere to be found.

    Reward:
    Blue egg with four pink ovals and a red gem in the center
    (Pre-warning, you will not get to keep the egg once it hatches)


    [OPEN] Mission 11:​
    Fisherman have been searching high and low for the legendary golden Magikarp. Many say it's just a myth, while others truly believe it could be a real thing. It would take a seriously talented fisher to find such a creature, and a damn good rod at that. (There's no such thing as a golden Magikarp)

    Reward:
    Good Rod


    Mission 12:​
    The whole manning's ordeal has taken it's toll on everyone, not least of all the big man's very own daughter, Paige Manning. Who has taken it upon herself to stop whatever it is Team Cinder are up to in Glittering cave. She cant do it alone. Someone needs to help her, but talking to her dad first seems like a safe bet. Better yet, why is she going after Cinder all of a sudden?

    Reward:
    Aerodactyl

    Da still here Zhak-date

    So...long time no date, but this is indeed back, and will actually contain useful information for the first time in about a month. I'm going to try to cover everything necessary in the time that we have...well, not that we're being timed or anything, but so help me I want to sleep before 3AM tonight. So, roll time.

    This Isn't Even My Final Form

    One of the biggest future development for the RP which I'm sure you've all been awaiting is Mega Evolution. Much like the final villain in your typical shounen anime, our pokemon can evolve beyond their third stage...only temporary, but still.

    Spoiler:


    I was gonna simplify, but I think I'll leave this how it is. Those who want to know, will actually read it.

    Tom, Dick and Harry

    No need for me to add this, since it's already in the OOC, but I figure it might be worth an refresher.

    The NPC SU sheet, as well as all the rules involved with creating one and having it added to the OP, is posted in the OOC:
    https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?p=9726639#9726639

    We have a Wiki!

    Screw clever sub headings. The wiki is a thing, and it has some nice progress made on it. We're still a long way from anything near finished or up to date, but it's something exciting that'll definitely be invaluable in recapping the events of the RP once we dive deeper into character journeys and over arching plots.

    Endgame?
    To which we're obviously a lot closer than when we started

    Kalos League
    When someone collects all 8 of the Kalos region badges, they may take on the first of the final tests. That being victory road, a long, difficult trek through one of the most dangerous areas of the entire Kalos region.

    Upon reaching the end you are presented with a pass with which you may enter the league.

    The second qualifier is the elite four. Rather than all four, a single member is chosen, one that best counters your team. You must fight and defeat this member to pass this stage. Interestingly, you may team up with other hopefuls and engage in multi-battles against the four... with up to a full 4 on 4 battle being possible to qualify.

    The third stage is the Pokémon League Tournament... all "League Hopefuls" as they're called are entered into a tournament. Grid style elimination... eveyr single member of the E4 will also enter this tourney, showing that they are now on equal level with all participants.

    The winner of the tournament, a globally televised event, becomes the "Champion Hopeful"... and will enter into the Champions chamber.

    This battle is not broadcasted or seen by anyone aside from the challenger and the Champion.

    After the battle... if the Hopeful wins they will proceed to the hall of fame to register their status and the champion will step out of their chamber to the crowds to announce their lost. If the hopeful loses, they must step out alone and announce to the crowds that they have failed.
    Needless to say, if you beat the Champion you are the Champion... you gain incredible amounts of publicity and respect, you're known as the most powerful trainer in one of the league sanctioned regions.

    Grand Festival
    You must collect three contests from any of the few regional contests performed across the contest season, which coincides with the league season in timing. With those 3 you may claim a Grand Festival pass. Since the GF is new to Kalos it's pretty damn big news.

    In the sky above Lumiose, soon a massive floating airship, holding the Grand Festival contest hall and various amenities... such as accomodation and restaurants... will be put in place. Basically a massive, over the top, luxury cruise liner in the sky.

    Those who qualify for the GF enter into the Festival Preliminaries... basically a huge appeal round with hundreds of contestants. From this only the top 20 are chosen to enter into the Grand Festival final round.

    This is then another tournament of contest battles... where skill, elegance, toughness, beauty, intelligence... all will be tested in order to see what pokémon is brought to the height of their abilities.

    The winner of this tournament becomes the Kalos Contest King/Queen and holds the title again, for a year, until they must defend it. The current King/Queen is automatically granted access to the Grand Festival of the following year.

    W/L Ratios

    Another act, another thrilling collection of battles for you guys to grade your characters growth upon.

    I feel it's probably best to reiterate this disclaimer before I show the W/L Ratios:

    - It doesnt acknowledge the significance of the battles.
    - Battles against trainers will always be recorded unless its a draw.
    - An individual pokemon being knocked out doesnt count as a loss, unless the battle is specifically
    under 1v1 battle rules.
    - Wild battles in which you flee arent counted, unless your pokemon is on the losing end of the exchange before you flee.
    - Battles that are alluded to, but dont happen in the post arent recorded.
    - Contest victories arent recorded, as all contest achievements are significant enough to be recorded by the players anyway.

    Please dont let this affect your decision making IC, as this is simply just for fun. If only my own

    "Welcome to the Kalos Daily! We lead with our top story today, which will also explain why our beloved region has been without the Kalos Daily for so long. Our very own Kalos daily radio tower we attacked by what seemed to be a rogue Blaziken. Few were actually able to see the creature, with those that did claiming the pokemon had flames trailing behind it as it disappeared in the night. Authorities have begun investigating the situation, but it's doubtful that anything will be discovered.

    "Camphrier Town is where the majority of our news comes today, as our latest story comes straight out of a horror story. It seems Pokemon rangers were forced to investigate a situation where children were being taken from their homes in the black of night. Rangers wouldnt reveal where the children were being lead or the reasoning for such matter, but they say it is resolved, and none of the wandering children seem to have been harmed. Upon asking townfolk, we discovered that Drowzee were the culprits to the spine chilling crimes. Where are they now? Only the rangers, and the unnamed red haired boy know for certain.

    It seems Camphrier is the town for things to go missing, as now the esteemed Lady Elraine seems to have disappeared. After going on a trip to Camphrier in order to save the endangered Relicanth, the lady has not only not returned, but left saving the ancient pokemon to none other than the acclaimed former police detective prodigy Emma Kuzunoha and Princess Allie. We werent able to get a direct quote from the princess, but she had high praise for the detective's work, claiming the rest would become clear when the detective was ready. It seems vigilantism really does pay.

    In lighter news, bring out the bowties and the ball gowns, because Parfum Palace hosted what was probably it's biggest event in years. In an evening to remember, Princess Allie once again showed her class, putting together one of the greatest contests in recent memory. With medal worthy performances across the board, it was a truly tightly contested event, with the eventual curtain closers being some of Kalos' hall of fame worthy performances. If ever there was a time to want to get involved in Kalos' contest scene, now would be the time to do it. Congratulations to Brielle Baker, who managed to get the win in that competition.

    We apologise for leaving this till last, but Riviere walk seems to have been home to a battle against a shiny Gyarados. The red sea monster has been associated with Team Cinder, but we dont yet have enough details to truly tell the full story.

    We can only hope for a more organised Kalos Daily the next time we return to you, but for now, that's all of todays latest news. As always, thank you so much for watching."

    Beating up Skater kids - Gang activity on Versant road has gotten stronger, as kids no longer feel safe with friends that arent tough enough to defend themselves. As a result, travellers are also feeling on edge as they pass through.

    Helping The Scraggy in their search for power - Many of the Scraggy gangs that took over Versant have left, making way for pokemon that previously felt threatened by their presence to replace them.

    New Pokemon Available on Versant:

    Not helping Simon The Aura Guardian - Simon was able to chase the Cinder Grunt out of Versant, but he isnt sure where they're headed next

    Not helping the ex-Flare grunt - The aggravation has become too much, and the woman has been led to inquire about Team Cinder. God knows how.

    Not catering to the berry garden - Many Pokemon have been driven to starvation. It's tragic, but without the berry reserve to keep them fed, they will lose sustenance.

    Saving the artifacts - The castle is once again attracting...some tourists. With the funding Lord Shabbenou is adding more attractions to his castle.
