You're so nice to your little mouse, letting him have fun with Water Gun.
Water Gun
(2)(4)(2) + autohit
(5) Masquerain faints and falls into the bushes on the far side of the river.
Abra wakes up and radiates satisfaction.
2Xp Abra, 2 Xp Azurill, 2Xp Shiva.
Oh, felt good to see the Masqurain break down in his flight and come to a forced rest among the leaves bushes. Well... it annoyed Shiva and her Pokemon, so that's what he gets for that.
Azurill also seemed happy over her final blow! The mouse looked up all in curiosity to her caretaker. Who seemed... pretty exhausted over the whole thing... Still not that used to fierce battles. Meh, maybe this is yet to come at some point. She nevertheless had enough energy left to give Azurill an appreciating cuddle~ Also, she picked up that... Helios seemingly relaxed now that the showoff was eliminated. Although being in pain? Hmm. Mental note on this. Maybe if we get to talk to his ego, we can as well work on his Psychic powers directly. There's also the spoon she saved to gift him. After all, Kadabra are known for being rather fond of these item to focus their mind and gain control of the emitting of alpha waves from their brain to the direct surrounding.
"You both did great here. Thank you, lots, you'll be rewarded properly. Let's go find a shelter for the night first, though..."
Indeed, next up was finding those treehouses... Luckily, it didn't take as long as Shiva expected it to be. Dusk was falling meanwhile, barely noticable by all the warm tones of the leaves around.
Here's what she'll ask/say at the reception of the treehouse resort. For the pace.
„So... Good evening. I caught up you serve night's stays here... If that's the case and you have a free room currently available, I gladly take it. … Oh, no, just me and five small Pokemon. I'll pay right away in cash, if that's okay.“ She hands over 500$. A fancy dinner among is never wrong! Especially in good company, which are, currently, her dear Pokemon. More than good company for now, and after all that hassle yesterday and shortly with the Masquerain, Shiva was practically longing for some qualitative alone time.
„You also offer special treatment for Pokemon here, right? What services are available then?“
"Well, you can pick any level of treehouse you like - we have thrilling open air platforms all the way up to mini mansions in the skies! You can take a treehouse alllll the way up in the tallest tree of Fireweed Forest, or just a few feet off the ground if you're nervous. All our taller treehouses are accessed with a rope ladder, if that's OK. Room service will bring a fine meal for you and your Pokemon, and draw you a hot spa treatment. Pokemon also love this. We recommend the cooling Quke treatment for trainers and any of their Pokemon with faces... Or rough skin that needs softened. Our Fireweed Treehouse Resort towels are complimentary souvenirs.
There is always gentle music playing in the courtyard below the treehouses, and most of the treehouses have a starviewing window. If you come back tomorrow night, it's supposed to storm a bit - that can be quite an experience! Don't worry, it's entirely safe, and it feels good to watch the rain through the viewwindow while relaxing in a safe spa bath.
This is usually a bonding experience for Pokemon and their trainers!"
(Ohhhhhh, bonding experience. <3 )
Whoahw... the Guidebook did not lie. This place was awesome. The others can rot in their tent (not really), while Shiva will exploit that luxury offered here in full force. 'Take good care of yourself' they say, and why not do this if there are opportunities around?
Hmm... "I'll take one on a rather tall level, but not on the 'tallest', if possible. Rope ladders are fine." The higher, the more quiet, the more peace, the better the view on Fireweed Forest. "Oh... I, eh... actually found one of these Quke Berry things in a crate somewhere along the way. Maybe... one of your suppliers have accidently lost it." She placed mentioned on the counter. ... "Oh, sure, we can just use that one for treatment then. Never hurts. My companion Pokemon are a Cottonee, a Plusle, a Minun, an Abra and this Azurill here."
At this point, Azurill looked up from the rim of the top hat Shiva carried in her arms. Blue mouse was a little brushed from the battle, and vary of all the strangers here. Rather stick close to new Master, yes. "The latter two are a bit...bruised from a previous battle with a Masquerain, so is healing also available in some degree?"
---------------
Mechanics:
Bring up the whole programm, please! Me and my Pokemon deserve this.
"Yes, we have Fresh Waters we will heal your Pokemon with. Right this way!"
They lead you to a tall oak, resplendent in its fiery glory, with a nice villa high up in the branches. The view is very nice - you can see all the way to Wineberry Town in the east, the Great Divide in the south, and even distant Vapor Falls in the west. To the north is the mountain terrain which holds the League!
You are as high up as the Flying types! Several go past your window, including your old friends the Hoppip.
You and your Pokemon get the full spa treatment.
Abra's Happiness goes up by 1. Cottonee, Azurill, Plusle, and Minun have their Loyalty go up by 1.
We ready for the next day?
Intensive Care Unit!
Seeing the League far in the distance actually made Shiva feel a little gloomy... Ah, she will probably never get to shine there. Nevermind... There are others aspects and activities she cares more about. Indeed, 'League Champion' surely is a title. But... the downsides of this... All the fame and attention you get then from the media and familiar people and strangers alike. Even if t'll be just for one year.
The star will shine... and then it will fall... and you will forget it all.
Rather enjoy all this here. Shiva especially valued the cozy comfortable bed, better than the tent. Cottonee and her Electric rodents tightly cuddled up to her as soon as it was time to get some night's sleep... How adorable! She glady returned any affection her Pokemon showed towards her. My, she didn't imagine that her very own companion Pokemon will get attached to her that much... But... it surely filled Shiva with joy. Lots of joy.
Shiva wakes up in the treehouse, feeling refreshed and happy with her Pokemon. The morning sunlight through the leaves is amazing.
The rest wake up in the tent, a pleasant breeze blowing through. Don't forget your 1XP.
You rejoin and walk to Wineberry Town!
The town is decked with flowers. There's no festival, that's just how it is here! Those fiery red leaves serve as a nice garland.
As promised, there are bug Pokemon here, helping the townsfolk! They don't seem to have trainers, but rather, they seem to belong to everyone at the same time. Volbeat and Illumise light up the morning dawn, pollinating the flowers and watching the kids. A Scyther is cutting logs for the fireplaces and bonfires and treehouses. They even use Pineco's selfdestruct to level lots for a series of quaint new houses.
There are a few trainers here, those who have collected Bug Pokemon or Fire Pokemon from the forest.
Most interesting of all: A tall statue of Genesect in the center of town, covered in garlands!
Naturally, they have a Pokemon Center and a PokeMart.
Waking up for the day was unsurprisingly a painful experience, as his whole body ached and stung from his Scyther tender ministrations. Groaning quietly, he crawled out of Apsis clutches and got started with his early morning stretches, waking her up in the process. She sleeply arose from her coil position, giving her master a baleful eye. Why does master insist on walking up this early, especially with those injuries of his?
Noticing Apsis' grumpiness, he just chuckled a bit, before going over to where his satchel was. "Oh come now, Apsis, rising with the sun is not so terrible, is it now? We have more time to be productive, and which means more time for sun bathing and hunting," Ventus said, reaching into his bag and pulling out a storage Pokeball, which contained all the spare clothing he owned. Retrieving a new green tweed sweater and a pair of pants, he swiftly put them on before flicking his wrist to get Apsis' Pokeball. After promising he'll let her out in a few hours, he returned her and left the tent to great the early morning with a smile.
Having a quick breakfast and waiting for Nathan to wake up, both of them packed up the tent and swiftly resumed their journey. Upon Shiva rejoining the group later, he let out a sigh of relief, glad to see that she was safe and happy. 'Her treehouse visitation did wonders for her mood and attitude, thought I am just as joyous to she her in good wellbeing. I just hope nothing too bad happens in Wineberry town...' the researcher thought, not looking forward to any more conflict playing havoc with their lives. Drama is the spice of life, but too much is simply too much.
Fortunately for everyone, nothing bad happened on their way to town, and soon enough arrived there. The sight and sounds of seeing people peacefully coexisting together brought a warm smile to his face. 'Perhaps Team Plasma's goal wasn't a pipe dream, in the end,' Ventus though, gazing at the town's scenery until his sight caught hold of the Geneosect statue. His eyes widened when he saw it, and couldn't help but walk up and approach it. Placing a hand on its knee, the researcher couldn't help but stare at the legendary, a sort of bittersweet look crossing his face.
"We've both come a long way, or so it seems Geneosect. I hope the years have treated you fair and kindly, like it has for myself..." Ventus said, his speech trailing off as he lost himself to his memories. Moving his hand back to his side, the researcher wandered further into town, enjoying the atmosphere while also trying to find some work. He need cash for supplies, or he would not be getting very far!
Order: Search town for a temp time job for money, and to listen for any interesting news. This place has piped the researcher's interest quite a lot!

Can I do multiple odd jobs, or just one? I can easily do Hauling firewood with Apsis, catching a wurmple should not be too difficult (Unless its that *Wurmple, which might cause shenanigans), and Shelmet transportation could be a challenge, but Ventus could do it!
