Larry sends a text to everyone in the group (except Sage and Vlader) that he arrived at corsage town with a picture of him and Zoura as Larry looks so happy the group has never seen him this happy before
"You two okay? You're both acting rather strange right now, ya know..."
Kirlia knows exactly what's going on, and is mentally chuckling. But not informing Nathan about this. Nathan can sort of tell there's something...personal? Was that the word for it? It's not super clear cut, though...
"And what was that about a pokemon you caught in the woods, Shiva?" Nathan's rather curious about that...is that what she'd been doing earlier? What kind of pokemon was it? He didn't think it could be a bug based on what little he'd seen of her behavior around that type...but what other pokemon lived here besides those?
Eeeek! Now even Nathan realized! Shiva needed a moment to get his words, but as she did, she somehow made it to turn away from Ventus and his gaze who seemed to go directly through her, touching her somewhere deep inside. He said she does not have to fear anything from him... And allowed to stay with him, even sleep over at his dorm... Oh, she gladly will. Thankfullness and appreciation filled her for his words and the assurance that she's no burden to him.
Acting strange? Nothing new. "Ah... Nope, I'm alright... No need to worry for me, Nathan!" Oh, wait... He asked another thing. At the thought of her newest companion, she could not help but to smile. "Ah... I managed to capture a Fennekin in the woods, at some sort of hidden Power Spot. It's... so adorable... I knew that the Lore of Fire-Magic in Fireweed Forest must have something to do with these foxes, and indeed the stars granted me today with an encounter of one."
"No need to battle it, by the way. It agreed to come with me on his own." Feels good to say this.
--------------
Mechanics:
I'll hand Abra to Nurse Joy, withdraw Fennekin from the PC, then head upstairs to my own dorm to feed my Pokemon. Then gather my things for the night to meet up with Ventus again, Fennekin in my arms. Spending a while reading through his journal to update myself on Genesect's powers and usual behavior, and sleep next to him. Ven said it's alright and Shiva does not mind after his assurance that it's indeed okay!
Oh, and I'll be offine for a few hours from now on to participate in the Tournament Dusk is holding.

A brief mention like that is plenty. You don't need to await confirmation from the GM. So, you did it exactly right.
Fennekin rearranges the blankets to make a little cave and snuggles in close.
"Huh? A Fennekin?"
Nathan pulls out his pokedex...
Fireweed Forest. Exceedingly rare.
"How'd you find a Fennekin? That's THE rarest pokemon in the forest."
He thinks for another moment...
"Wait, power spot? Fire magic lore? Shiva, just what did you use to track it down?"
I talked to Sage and he's been too busy to post but he's keeping up with the thread. Just an FYI.
The next day begins! 2Xp to everyone instead of the typical 1. This is a combination of RP bonus and heroism bonus in addition to your heartbeat XP.
You're welcome to flashback to the journal reading, or just discuss it in the day. I just want to make the next day available because that's where the action will be.
Nathan's first course of action the next morning is to pick Princess up, followed by another check on Pinsir. He actually had something he wanted to say to the bug before its trainer comes to pick it up. He'd talk with his own pokemon and meet everyone else afterwards.

(Awwww! I hope Ventus does not mind the little magical fox in his dorm.)

At this point, her smile only increased.
"Oh... I didn't do much. The Lore of Fire Magic in the woods is an old tale, I read about that in the Guidebook Professor Mallor gave me. It survived at this place - didn't you realized that folkart showing a foxlike Pokemon? From that moment on, I knew there's something about those."
"... And indeed the starts above granted me to meet one of these elusive foxes. On top of that, it did not shy away from me. It was...fascinated by me. Maybe it has never met a human similar to me, knew in some way that I'm no harm to it, knew that I'll treat it well, whatever."
Princess is in good shape, and Pinsir will also be fine. Nurse Joy hasn't heard anything about the trainer coming to pick up his mon. Lumin is currently out investigating something.
