When finish the hug he explains the process of evolution.

After that Heart meet Shiva. "We aware Shiva. Viktor show his resolution to reach his next form." Heart look Viktor with a mix of sad and proud. "He is the best tree a trainer could have. Thank you again for helping me in his evolution Shiva. I hope I will able to someday pay my debt with ya. You are a incredible person." Heart a respect bow to her. "I will be very much grateful about the Move Tutoring. Me and Viktor will be very much honrour to have a teacher like you." Then Heart open a smile. He and Viktor is ready for the trading!
(I ready for the trade now Phantom!)
Fae Enthusiast silently and respectfully observes how Heart prepares his ghostly stump for both the trade and the evolution, emptying the cup of caffee latte in the process. Much sweeter than the beverage was the warmth that she felt from these two, an eerie Ghost Type with a sad backstory and still Heart loved him so much! Aww. It allured a faint smile from her while Spritzee on the table by the mug that she placed there now gave them an appreciating chirp.
When Heart adressed her directly, she conveys her attention to him in response by facing him, listening carefully what he had to say. She...has not expected such a heartfelt thanks for her help and her mind had to progress this at first, but when it did her befuddled state developed into a coy flattered one that unwillingly in combination with a Spritzee by her side looked incredibly adorable. If looked closesly enough, one would notice that she tries to NOT blush here. Guess Shiva has to get used to deserved open thank-yous a little more, despite she secretly enjoys them. "Debt? Debt... Oh, you... you don't have to repay me in any means! You can if you feel the need, but I'm not expecting anything in particular.... Wait, before we trade Phantump over - Do you allow me to pluck the green leaves from his horns? They'll regrow. They're rare. Alternative practitioners love these leaves, and I'd like to see what I can make with these..."
Once that has been resolved, up to the Trade Machine they go, from Shiva's side the Oddish that she once got from the Fortune Hunter will be traded.

Mechanics:
Can Shiva do that before trading, does Phantump allow having her pluck the green leaves, Iron? According to Dex Entries, they can be turned into a secret medicine that is said to cure everything. Sounds very useful for the journey! Maybe when Ventus has gained more points in Medicine Speciality and Shiva more in Nature or Crafting, they can work together to create something with these leaves.

Shiva and Ventus reach the graveyard as night is falling. Each gravestone has a carving of up to six Pokemon on it - the subject's partners. The artwork is quite good. Some have no unique Pokemon - instead, a carving of Furret is wrapped around their name. This seems to be for those who had no Pokemon on hand.
Judging by the number of stones, not everyone chooses to be buried. Also, some people have family stones instead of individuals - these have a Kangaskhan on them. Whoa, you catch a name you recognize - "WARREN."
The place is deserted. No ghost Pokemon are around at all - they would not be permitted. However, two Marowak have sighted each other from across the boneyard, and they look ready to clash over who gets to make this their territory, perhaps.

He also takes her hands immediately and squeezes it in comfort, offering her a smile that hopefully soothes her not so hidden fears. Besides that, he has nothing else to react to until the Graveyard Encounter [He'll 'want' to deal with a Medium-Hard Level Ghost himself, if Shiva's busy warding off her own ghost or multiple come out of the graveworks]!
Silently thankful, Shiva accepts her dear friend's and simultaneously newlyfound lover's hand without objecting, and as a response warm feelings increase within her. Ven was with her - he'll always will be. Physically or not, she's keeping a place in her sensitive heart reserved for him where he can get as comfortable as ever. She didn't even have to say what was on her mind, he already felt it, which added some appreciation for him.
She was rather thankfull that they didn't have to pass through the Violet Tent, as she was SURE that Ventus would NOT enjoy this place. AT AAAALL.
First reaction from Shiva to Cress Cementary was, as expected, a respectful decision to not speak unless it's necessary and move slowly and carefully to not disturb the eternal peace that lingers at this place. She never visited Celestial Tower, simply because her family never had a reason to - all she knows about this place and its traditions considering funerals is read and viewed in texts and pictures.
Second reaction was the fact that this place was EMPTY. Huh - in silent, Shiva was both delighted and suprised by this. She thought that many Ghost Types would linger here, but seems like this wasn't so - on second thougth, she realiced that it was probably better this way. The imagination of something like that Chandelure that crept up behind her as she left the Candelabra appearing to mourning people - it was a SCARY one. Seems like she would not even need a Cleanse Tag to be safe here, so reaching into the inner pocket of her Ranger's Cloak, se draws it, takes a meaningful look at her work, and then packs it away into backpack, hiding it between some folded T-Shirts. (I hope that 'ends' the effect of the crafted Cleanse Tag, and allows Malphena and Litwick coming close to her again! Furret and Yena can stay out during the investigation anyway, both receive some silent pets. No battle for them today.)
She's carefully curious about this graveyard here in Chreshire however, so she holds out a hand to her Litwick to silently ask it to get back to her, then bows and knees down to silently investigate several gravestones illuminated by her candlestick spirit's bluish light. ...She enjoyed the unique Pokemon on them. Having one's companions engraved forever on a stone - hopefully when they enter afterlife as well, Pokemon and owner will get united again. Spotting the name 'Warren' was something that clearly stunned Shiva, as....wasn't that Nathan's second name?
It is, my dear.
How weird. Has he lost a familiy member? Has his Dad...died here? Possible - and not necessary the case, as 'Warren' can mean a totally different family, the name sounds as it wasn't a rare one like her own. She frowned. Pondered what to do, whether she should ask Nathan about this at some point - she's undisclosed whether this would be a good idea at all, but she cannot simply pass - drawing her cell, she makes sure to get a photo of this with the name readable in the light her Litwick gives off. With Braixen's light things would be brighter, but he's more a backup on this trip.
As she got up again and allowed her gaze to wander a bit over the place while breathing in the nocturnal air, Shiva rather quickly spotted these two Marowak - the sight of these allured some worry from her side. Where's Ventus...? Oh, found, she silently beckons him to come to her to semi-hide at a secure spot at this graveyard, where she nudged him and the pointed to these two Marowak with a hand. This was the moment where she spoke the first time on this trip, her voice was low, quiet and tinged with insecureness about what to do. "Ven... I bet you saw these two Marowak already. These are aggressive Pokemon, much unlike their pre-evolution... They collect bones.... I, well, I'm....not too sure whether I enjoy the thought of these claiming this peaceful graveyard as their territory. Shall we....watch what they do at first, do you want to make some notes about them interacting with each other for your research? Shall we, well...attempt to capture them for safety?"
In case she and Ventus agree to battle these two Marowak, she silently withdraws Yena and Furret - in return, Lilith is summoned. Shiva shows her these two Ground Types from their hiding spot, then gives a silent and very hopeful glance to her mighty Psychic Type. The sentiment was clear - Shiva like for HER to face these Marowak alongside one of Ven's Pokemon, to show them her psychic powers. A battle at a graveyard at night, under the sky full of stars where the only light was a bluish-purple coming from Litwick's flame - what a cool scene for a Gothitelle to participate in a battle the first time. Once they are defeated and BEFORE they'll be captured, she'd also like for Litwick to absord their life force. (Does Lilith agree to this, Iron? How does she react to this sentiment from Shiva and possibly a graveyard itself, at all?)

And back out Furret comes on the walk back to the Pokemon Center!
Nathan's happy, but he looks at her rather...thoughtfully...
"...ya know, I should give ya a nickname. There's a lot of Furret around here, and I don't want anyone to get confused about who I'm addressing...how does Rhea sound? I like the ring of that. What about you, though?" (Thanks for the nickname suggestion, Windos! I like it!)

Viktor hands over two leaves, knowing he won't need them.
Empathy check at -2: (5)(3) Phantump understands this trading thing is not permanent!
You pass Viktor back and forth through the Trading Machine. Exposed to its meteoric energies, he begins growing upward at an incredible rate!
When the energy has faded, a tall and ferocious haunted tree stands in the Pokemon Center! Gone is the timid little ghost. Instead, Heart now has a confident and somewhat violent spooky Pokemon! He's testing out his spiderlike roots.
Congratulations! Your Phantump evolved into Trevenant.

Lilith agrees that this would be an awesome debut battle!
Furret likes the way Nathan says 'Rhea' and accepts the nickname.

(K, all that is left now it to wait for Ventus' input before we can start our battle against these Marowak!~)
Despite that Trevenant being SO BIG and SCARY, Shiva does not visibly flinch away from as soon as Heart has him back at his person. It's a Pokemon that she holds quite a respect for however, as it's rather close to nature (or rather, forests) and is partly a Ghost Type. Patting Heart on the shoulder as a silent congratulation for his new Pokemon, she gives a respectful bow to the newly evolved creature also serving as a silent thank you for the leaves, before picking up Spritzee into her hollow hand again, making attempts to leave. "We'll see one another later then or tomorrow, Heart! Please make sure to ready to depart into Mount Sentry tomorrow."

Heart it was not afraid of the new form of Viktor. Deep inside that Trevenant, still have that tree pokemon Heart love so much. He came a little closer to Viktor and say. "You look awesome and cool Viktor! How do you feel now buddy?" Heart then hug the big tree pokemon. "Know that Viktor: No matter what form you have, you will be always my little baby tree." Then Heart continue the hug (reaction to that @ Iron?).
Heart then look again to Shiva when she pat his shoulder. He give her a smile than touch her hand. "Thank you again Shiva. For help me and Viktor go another step. I still owe you a lot my friend." Then Heart and Viktor make a bow of respect to Shiva. Even evolve, they still very much sync. "Now problemo, tomorrow we will be ready to go to Mt. Sentry. I even have something to help in our journey. A Onix I have recently receive. He still....a little disobedient, but me and Nathan we working on a backup plan. Also a quick question: The leafs of a Phantump change his cure properties when he evolve to a Trevenant? Just curious."

Trevenant is kind to those he cares about. He returns the hug in prickly fashion.
Pokedex doesn't describe any benefits for Trevenant leaves, but Trevenant will be able to exert limited control over trees now!

"It's settled then. Rhea it is. Now then, let's get the party rearranged a little..."
Back at the Center, Nathan swaps his pokemon around. Both Combee get deposited, and taking their place are Rhea and Ditto.
Now that Nathan doesn't have to worry about leaving Rhea behind, it's time for some action! As much as he likes Cress, he's been eagerly awaiting a chance to get a good battle in. So it's off to Stair he goes via Ralts's Teleport to find a 4v4 Double for $600 (no fainting preferred). First two pokemon will be Charmeleon and Rhea (assuming she's fine with demonstrating a little of what she can do in battle, that is)
