“How about I take you shopping, then?”

“I’ve never done that before. Okay!” Keira clasps her hands excitedly.

“Great! Let’s invite everyone!”

You invite Hana. She’s a little self conscious, but wants to come. “I guess I could get something for Togepi.”

“Valerie, Laki, do you want to come?”

Laki is asleep and leaning leaning heavily on Valerie. Her hands are getting pretty familiar with the thin blonde girl. “Mmmschmellzgooood.”

Valerie politely removes Laki’s wandering hands. “I think that could be quite fun.”

Laki finally opens her eyes and becomes fully awake with a snort. Despite her confident manner, she’s looking very self-conscious. “What are you looking at, Soft Hands?”

You avoid her harsh gaze. “Did you want to come with us to go shopping for clothes?”

Laki thinks, then springs up. “Awesome. Let’s go!”

You all head out to the clothing district. It’s only a few blocks away. You remember passing near it before.

Valerie chats you up about fashion. She’s dropped a few names you’d expect from someone that runs in her circles, but a few that are more underground. She seems to really know her stuff.

You arrive at the clothing district. It’s a little quaint, but you don’t want to say anything. It’s not the price that matters, it’s finding the right look for person. Hana has baggy, dumpy looking clothes that must be hot and uncomfortable. Laki’s clothes are actively downplaying her figure and making her look a little boxy. Keira is wearing a shirt many sizes too large that half-drapes over her grass skirt. These girls need your help.

She gives you that smile. That one you’re used to when girls get to know you. Like a harmless kid. “It’s so nice to have someone to talk to about all this. You’re not like other boys.”

Gotta get in shape!

At this rate we are going to see all of them without clothes just because we are picking new ones.

>>742723
I agree, but something I thought of is the fact that John has taken almost every opportunity to try and prove that he's manly, particularly in front of the girls.

Seems to me that he might have a complex about that. If that's the direction things go, it could be interesting to see how it gets resolved.

“I’m manly! I can prove it!” You rush into a nearby store. The girls follow. They have a wide variety of things from all over. You just need some stuff that will show your bold, assertive, manliness. You try on a few things quickly. Mace, Bella, and Gobble follow.

“Herb, I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.”

You burst out of the change room. “A man’s feelings don’t get hurt!” You don’t really think that’s true, but it sounds like something a rugged guy would say. She didn’t actually hurt your feelings so much as she made you realize you’re not showing that masculine aspect of yourself. “Ta daaa!~”

You’re wearing a slick mixed suit, with a cape and bandana. Those two things are hard to pull off, but under the right circumstances, you can do it.

“Huh. That shouldn’t work, but it does.” Valerie tells you.

The other three girls look at you in total surprise.

“Wow!” Keira says. “That is brave!”

Hana is in open mouth shock. She looks very impressed and very scarred.

Laki rushes forward and rips the headband off of you. “Soft Hands are you crazy?”

You pose. “Crazy about uhh...beer and push ups and-”


“No! You idiot. A bandana means you’re representing one of the islands and you’re willing to take any challenge.” She leans in. “Any challenge. You’re free game for anything from a game of checkers to a battle to the death. You can’t back out.” She carefully puts the bandana down. “Not that anyone ever does death battles any more, but still.”

“Oh. I didn’t know.” You feel a bit foolish. “What about the cape?”

“It means you read too many comics.” She looks down on you and gives you a second look. “But I guess you’re making it work. Somehow.”

“Thanks! The trick is the lining. See, the colors...” You go on for a bit about it until even you realize that she’s getting bored. Keira keeps comparing what you’re talking about to different flower arrangements. Hana becomes more and more self-conscious about her large sweater and other things.

You and Valerie get to talking again. “We need to help them.”

She nods. This is a mission to save people.

Also Death Battles sound like something that are going to happen and cause some fun.

>>742791

>>742791
>Start with Hana
We are doing everyone right? Because Laki and Keira need a makeover too

>>742791

Although the wind blowing Keira away would be hilarious.

>>742791
>>Start with Hana. She needs it the most

>>742791
>Start with Laki. Show the others what you can
I think Hans needs it more, but I don't think making her go first or last would be especially comfortable for her. The first and last things to happen usually get the most attention.

>>742830
>Hans
I meant Hana, thanks autocorrect.

>>742839
Oktoberfest Hana outfit?

>>742791

Now I want him to start wearing a bandana. That's probably fun

Wait, we took the bandanna off right?

>>742791
>>Ask Valerie if she wants to do it first. Set an example
Hana's nervous. We need to ease her into this or she'll shut down.
We've already shown what we can do. Let's see our cohort's talents.

Kiera would probably be best first. Seems like she wouldn't mind.

Then hana, laki, valeria

>>742857
That was my other choice. I just figured Laki would be harder if given time to think about reasons to refuse.

Actually, I don't think we should dress up Valerie at all. I kinda want to make it a competition. We can both makeover each of the others and see who does it better.

You put the suit and cape back. Mace seems specifically interested in the cape as you rack it.

“I don’t know...” she looks away. “I don’t mind blending into the background.”

“Nonsense!” Valerie tells her. “Look at you! You’re absolutely gorgeous!” She moves the hair out of Hana’s eyes. “Now let’s get you out of that sweater and let your natural beauty show.”

Hana shyly nods her head.

“Want us to go to the change rooms first?”

“Yes please.”

The group heads to one of the change room areas in the back. This place must not have a lot of theft because they have a few of them. It's just a grouping of stalls in a secluded area in the back.

Everyone sits on the little couch as Hana takes off her sweater. She has a light white tank top underneath. But what draws everyone’s eyes are the various burn lines and the stark black and metal arm.

You and Valerie exchange a look. This is obviously a tricky one. She’s also got the leg situation. You’ve only seen brief glances, but they follow the same black and metal pattern.

Hana holds her real arm with her fake one and stares intently at the ground.

>Find her something long sleeved but not as drab as the sweater
>Encourage her to wear a t-shirt and jeans. Denim won’t hug the metal leg rods that much so it won’t be as obvious

Well if we get a new outfit I want it to be something that would be good for traveling around here in the heat and humidity but also make Laki eye us up like Gobble looks at food.

>Find her something long sleeved but not as drab as the sweater
I want to put her in the sundress she is cute enough for it but she won't be comfortable, and that makes me sad. Maybe later on she will be more comfortable with herself.

>>742909
>>Find her something long sleeved but not as drab as the sweater
Much as I'm tempted to go whole hog, she's not ready. If you're not comfortable with what you're wearing, it doesn't matteer how good it looks.

[Sundress coupled with a shawl or light sweater to cover her arms. Light leggings to cover one or both legs. Go with a cool, soft natural color or a light tan/yellow for the main color. Accent as appropriate with other colors.]

>Go all in! We should put her in a nice sundress. She’s beautiful and should show it

>>742909
This is important:
We need to tell her that she is cute. She is the cutest girl and needs to hear it.

>>742948
I like that idea. Changing this >>742926 to that, because this is also me.

>>742909
As much as I want to have a full-Jensen waifu, the sundress and paint would combine to the best solution

>>742948
This sounds like it could work, as long as we make sure her robotic limbs are always covered.

>>742948
Still voting to start off slow and steady. This could be the next step though.

[I cobbled together some 3DPD examples to demonstrate. The sweater or shawl can be open, allowing some exposure of her collar, and can overall be tighter than her current sweater to complement her form. She can later ditch the shawl when she is more comfortable. Some tall boots would go nicely without the leggings.]

You and Valerie consult. This is a sensitive subject. Valerie wants to be more aggressive and get her into something that shows a lot of her body. You have a different suggestion.

“How about these?” You present a long sleeved shirt and light tan pants.

Hana looks at them, the nods. She was expecting a lot worse. “Okay!”

Valerie walks with Hana into the change room to help her get dressed. “Oh my. You’re quite cut. Aren’t you?”

Keira climbs up your shoulders and launches herself to the gap at the top of the changing stall door. “I wanna see!” There’s a loud thud as she goes a little too hard and flips over it. Belladonna follows under the gap at the bottom.

The three girls come out with Hana in tow. The tight shirt hugs her fairly generous chest. The pants still show a bit of the form of her hips but avoid showing the form of her legs.

“Is it okay?”

“You’ve got great boobs!” Keira tells her. “They look really good in that.”

Hana slowly covers her chest with her arms.

>Tell Hana she’s cute

The more this goes on the more I want to become a solitary sage completely cut off from everyone else

Also. I think in a deep, dark part of her heart, Hana would get a geeky high out of dressing in full cyberpunk.

If we romance her, (or hell, even just get to know her well) we should see if she's open to it at some point, even if it's just for a costume party or something.

>>743119
>>743038
>Tell Hana she's downright adorable

>>743124
We should do a cyberpunk outfit on the Halloween episode for Hana.

>>743144

>>743121
I think it's alright to have criticisms about the waifus, but I'd like to see it be more constructive and less negative overall.

>>743151
The reason i want that is because harems are shit and don't make sense for our character,and choosing a waifu is going to be the largest shit storm to ever grace gobble's poor anus

>>743165
Don't worry about it for now my man.

>>743150
Gag outfit for Laki might be a princess of some sort.

Keira would need something to go with her face-paint, so maybe a skeleton

Hana is cyberpunk of course

Valerie should be something more punk, maybe like a punk-rocker

Polu should be Keunu Reeves's character from Point Break

Jane should dress as her favorite pokemon. Mainly because I'd to see never in something goofy.

That's all the bad ideas I've got.

>>743165
Like anon said, don't worry about it, it's way too soon for any of that.

>>743173
>>743180

Right now I don't want waifus. I just want cute moments with all the characters.

You grab a shawl and offer it to her. Valerie see’s what you’re doing and helps put it on Hana.

“There. Should be much more breezy.” Valerie says.

Hana walks over to a mirror. She forgets her self-consciousness at all the attention being on her and lights up. “Thank you!”

Laki smirks and leans over to you. “You’re so manly that you get girls to put on more clothes instead of taking them off, huh?” Her voice lets you know it’s just some good natured ribbing.

Before you put that sundress away that you were also going to suggest, she takes it. “I want it. Even if I don’t wear it... it’s nice.”

Valerie smiles. She’s totally going to wear it later.

Hana looks to you again. “Are you sure I look okay?”

“Yeah! I think you’re really cute.”

She stands there in shock while you casually put a few of the items you didn’t use back onto thier hangers. The staff can handle this sort of thing, but you don’t mind doing it.

You turn back to her. “Are you okay?” She looks like she’s sweating.

She gulps and nods. She just goes to sit back on the couch.

Laki stands up and stretches. “I guess that’s that.”

Valerie and Keira grab her. “Oh no. You’re not getting out of it.”

Keira nods. “No way!”

Laki looks to you. Her eyes are questioning what you intend to do with her.

She’s tricky too. She has a very curvy figure, but her muscles are noticeably large, too. Keira has the figure of a model if she were taller, but Laki is a much harder challenge. Her tight sarashi makes it hard to estimate her chest. Both your inner fashion advisor and your boyhood drive makes you really want to know more about that.

Pain is just weakness leaving the body

>>743165
I can kind of see where you're coming from: The Kat/Robin thing in the first quest went down pretty well because we bonded with Robin before any other serious options appeared, so all the following trysts became icing on the waifu sundae, as it were, rather than serious options to rival Robin.

That isn't the case in this quest, as there are multiple options available, and the idea of having one over the other isn't the foregone conclusion that it was in the first quest. Thus the opportunity for shitstorms to emerge from this matter is considerably higher.

>>743189

We Slavs now boys.

>>743165
I think it'll get better once we've moved away from literally the entire cast (except for Jane) being in one huge herd.

Don't think of these current silly things in terms of potential shitstorms. Think of them as us finally getting a chance to chat with all the girls and see who we like based on early impressions.

I was a hardcore Keira fan, with Laki as my second choice, but now I think Valerie and Hana are in a three-way tie with Keira for my favorite. These past couple threads have been good for getting a better feel for the girls' characters, and they've made me change my eventual group preferences pretty heavily.

>>743232
I want to travel with Valerie and Hana and everyone else as friendly rivals. I think is the most fun route. If we go with Laki we will need to be the calm person in the group and not take any risks.

>>743189
>A nice track outfit with some alterations

Or

>Something else

Something no-nonsense and sophisticated.

Also, you weren't kidding about an early start.

>>743249
I kind of agree, yeah. I like Keira a lot, and she has caused many a boner, but she's really hard for John to relate to on a personal level, and I think that might hold her back in the long run. I think a relationship with her could work, but I don't think John has the right personality to walk her through how to fit in with regular customs and mannerisms.

I still want to hang out with her and do cool ghost lore stuff, and even some accidental lewd things, because she seems to be good for that, but I think Hana and Valerie are probably better girlfriend options. They seem to get John pretty well.

>>743249
Laki doesn't actually take that many big risk though. And she knows more island customs than us.

At the risk of starting shit, I'll say that the more we see of her, the more I like Hana, but I've really gotten to like Laki as well over the last couple of threads.

Probably has something to do with the life-and-death situation with the Kabutops, but she's good for John.

>>743275
Laki may be my last non-Jane choice for a girlfriend, but I still like her a lot. She's great.

>>743262
Personally, I'm casting my lot in with Keira, Hana, or Polu.

>>743262
I was talking more about traveling partners, not girlfriends. Let's explore the region a little more before thinking about that

>>743275
Laki and Hana are pretty close for me.

>>743275
Laki and Hana would be my top choices for traveling companions. Too soon to say about romance, but I have my preferences, but I try to keep them separate since John got to develop his own feeling about that stuff.

>>743275
Maybe we can travel with Hana and Laki. They are basically two extremes, that can be fun.

>>743279
Ah, fair enough.

I'd be happy with Hana, Keira, and Valerie all being our travelling partners. I think those three balance each other out really well, and all of them compliment John in some way:

John is more outgoing than Hana, more savvy than Valerie, and more socially-accustomed than Keira. Valerie and Keira both bring potentially cool lore to the table in the form of ghost stuff and Valerie's dad being a big deal here, and Hana almost definitely has more to her that we haven't seen yet.

So yeah, those would be my three choices. I think they'll make for a good balance of personalities.

>>743189
>>Daisy dukes and a bikini. Just kidding! She’d kill you
>>A breezy, feminine dress
Sleek and flowing really suits muscles. Not sure why.

>>743279
For travelling partners, we should try and go with Keira.

Besides that, Laki and Polu are both solid options.

Much as I like Hana and would like to see her along, she's not as much of an influence as Laki and Keira and she doesn't as yet have as much of a potential for getting us into interesting situations.

>>743290
fuck no. We have to travel with Kiera. That innocence is way to fucking adorable. The try everything once and live life to it's fullest policies are literally the best there are.

>>743310
Plus preiestess shenanigans would be cool. As would visiting temples and shit with her.

I think Hana is really interesting. Remember that she steped in front of everyone to stop that attack like we did. She is shy but brave.

>>743310
Hana/Laki/ Keira could be fun.

Then again I can easily see

Keira/Polu/Laki or Keira/Polu/Hana

Keira's going to want to watch Spiritomb, at least until it gets checked out.

We could just travel with everyone.

>>743316
True but she's not as outgoing as Keira or Laki.

I like those two because they get us into trouble.

>>743321
I'm partial to Hana, Laki, Kiera.

>>743322
That would make shit worse and mean that character development is spread really thin

>>743322
That sounds like really tough, to characters characters and to have good development. I think having three people besides John should be near the starting number with maybe more added on later in the quest. Besides the islands are small enough that Gobble said we should run into everyone often enough.

>>743322
That would be the easiest solution.

But it'd also be the hardest for Gobble to balance.

>>743335
>3 starting
More like 1, 2 tops.

>>743345
>1 other max
That is just stupid

>>743345
What the tv shows had 3 people besides Ash all the time. It would work fine. though I'd admit 2 to start might be a better fit.

>have whatever girl who isn't Laki travel with us and pine for us the entire time
>laki is actually our sexy strong independent fishnet wearing leatherclad gf the entire time

>>743352
I like Laki, but I don't want her with us ALL the time.

>>743335
Agreed. Keira would want to come with us, because she's taken an interest in us, so she'll probably ask to come with us regardless, and Valerie and Hana both seem more comfortable opening up to John; they both seem to find him approachable, at least.

Plus, they're probably the least independent of the others. Laki and Polu can definitely handle themselves on their own, so them going solo (or even teaming up) seems more reasonable than making Valerie and Hana head off on their own.

>>743328
Maybe we need a person that gets us in trouble (Keira or Laki) and one more calm to compensate (Hana or Valerie). I think that is the best, I prefer Keira and Hana because I don't like Laki that much, but that's just me.

>>743354
You want Budew to cry?

>>743354
I do, she would be great. She's got maternal qualities that are interesting too.

>>743360
Clearly they are a psycho Pokemon bully.

>wanting to take Keira over Laki
You people sicken me.

>>743322
theres a reason people typically travel in trios in stories

it allows for much more character development and a love triangle

I'll push for Keira and Hana or Polu as our traveling companions. Then Laki and Valerie can go together with the person that isn't in our group

You look her up and down. Laki becomes a bit bashful at your examination. “What? What are you looking for?”

You keep looking her up and down as you stroke your chin. You glance over to Keira briefly, and decide it’s time to be brave. This is going be be so funny. “Stay right there.”

You come back with a few items. Jean shorts with that factory cut (you’d prefer cutting jeans yourself but this will do), a bikini top, a fishnet top to go over it, and a small, open leather jacket.

Laki puts you in a headlock. “You’ve got a lot of guts, Soft Hands!”

Valerie looks at it and then you. “Herb! That...actually, that might work.”

Keira leaps up. “Yeah! Do it!”

Laki looks at both of them. “You’re messing with me, right?”

Keira emphatically declares that she isn’t. Valerie says that Laki should flaunt what she’s got.

“Oh fine. Whatever.” Laki goes into the room to try them on. “I can’t believe I’m doing this.” Keira and Valerie follow to help.

She comes out with an aggressive waltz, then jokingly poses. “Alright. I did it. Now let’s move on to the real clothes.” She points to the track clothes you have set aside. The serious suggestion.

Valerie stops her. “Come on. Give us a twirl first.”

Laki glares at her, then you. “I get it. I’m not girly. Let's move on.” You try not to stare too much. Her firm, heavy chest pushes out against the bikini and fishnet. You see a hint of G-string peaking out above her dukes. Usually you’d call this a little trashy, but your pants are calling her a divine miracle.

Valerie holds an arm out to Laki as she goes back towards the changing stall. “That’s not what I meant.”

“It’s fine. We had a laugh. Let’s move on.”

So do any of these characters have references? Might try drawfagging(only mediocre tho)

>>743351
I stopped watching somewhere after Orange Islands, and its been a long ass time, but I only remember Ash having two companions at any time.

>>743356
You are right. I don't want Hana or Valerie going solo. And we need to think about objectives. Laki and Polu are more combat focused than us and are more likely to focus their travels in that. I don't think I want us to go full champion of the region with op pokemon

>>743354
That's the point, she'd be doing her own thing while we travel with whoever else who pines for us the whole time and finds out that Laki claimed us all along. What a tryst!

It says something about Gobble's ability to throw out hooks there's this level of discussion over it.

Means we'll win whatever way we go, but Keira and Hana seem like they've got a sweet\funny dynamic.

The real hard choice is Polu or Laki.

I'm leading towards Laki because Polu can be a little on the passive side, but at the same time, he's also got a potentially malicious plot-point with him.

That's a strong concept; as is the possibility of John being bullied by either Keira or, in a rare moment of boldness, Hana.

Valerie's rich girl status could mean she can also do some good bullying, but it also means she's especially vulnerable to having the tables turned on her.

Power dynamics are everyone's fetish, and I want that to be a thing here. The exact direction doesn't necessarily matter.

>>743465
Also a good idea. They can be dense buddies.

Didn't think she'd go for it to be honest!

I'm fine with traveling with anyone.
Except Keira, I just don't like her too much. Reminds me of a friend I had back in highschool. He was great to hang around in small doses. Spend too much time with him and you'd want to kill him though.

>>743471
More it's discussed, the more Keira/Hana/Laki sounds like the best bet for travelling companions.

>>743478
We need her for lore dumps and she isn't annoying.

I say we start off equally then slowly hang out with who we like more over time.

>>743465
So John and Keira together and Hana to misunderstand everything in the lewdest way possible like she did in the pokecenter?

exactly, eventually Hana will grow used to the accidental lewdness

then stage 2 begins

>>743492
We'll get there eventually.

>>743492
After the cave, the trust and respect is there, but power dynamics make great reading.

>>743506
Stage 2 is non-accidental lewdness?

>>743492
>what ever happened to equal partnerships built on trust and respect

That's the entire basis for that sort of relationship, though, assuming we're going by the "sexual power dynamics/mild bdsm" definition of bullying here. A strong level of trust and respect is outright required for a relationship like that to work.

>>743494
>>743496
True, but I still think we should give everyone equal time. Except Jane.

I prefer Hana-John-Keira to Hana-John-Laki for one reason. Hana is strong, she protected her friends with her body. We are strong too and Laki probably too. They can be an amazing team together but maybe too similar in a crisis.

>>743515
I'd rather give Jane time than Keira, to be honest.

>>743515
Jane is the eventual dark lord of the sith, I assume

Keira almost feels kinda bland to me.

Those specific characters have strong qualities to them, but have wildly different personalities and interests. i doubt too similar will ever be a problem.

I'm the only one that doesn't like Laki? She is good but is not that interesting as a character to me.

>>743577
you are the only person that has said tease this entire thread. They've only used bully, which seems to show how people want Laki to act.

there's a difference between having an equal partnership and a bland relationship. Considering how good of a writer Gobble is, I doubt it would be bland

“Nobody is laughing at you.” You tell her. “I think you look really...” Your eyes wander over her again. You’ve always been looking at fashion models but this body is something else. “You look so ho-” You look up at her face. “Good. You look uh, good.”

Her face tells you that she’s having an internal debate about what you just said. Her eyes go up and down your body too for some reason. It finally settles on this smirk that’s half flattered and half like a predator looking at prey. “Guess you’ll say whatever you can to get out of those back rubs you owe me, huh?” She pushes you back to the couch, giving you a chance to sit there slightly leaned over.

"Gutsy little perv." Laki smiles as she goes to change into that track suit. It looks good. Lots of freedom to move, too. She’s surprisingly impressed at it.

“Do me! Do me!” Keira jumps up.

Hana gives a Keira a funny look for a second before shaking her head.

You look up and the energetic girl with the wild facepaint. That’s hard too. She has a more typical body from what you’ve seen (and you’ve seen a lot) but the colours give this another level of challenge.

“What kind of clothes do you normally wear?” Valerie asks.

She looks up at the taller blonde. “Oh. natural clothes. Cotton or leaves or paint made from berries and roots. Things like that.”

I think Laki, Hana and Keira have been my favorite so far they each have their charms. I for one loved to be teased by girls I am into or am seeing. I like Laki because she is honest, Hana for her cute reactions and hearing her gush about her favorite things and Keira for how she enjoys to take it easy and have fun, at least when her priestess duties aren't concerned.

You and Valerie have a few ideas.

“What if she has just a cotton tube top.”

“I was thinking a sundress, but that works too.”

You both go over the smaller girl. Keira seems pretty conscious of you, but nearly oblivious to Valerie, despite valerie being the one to really invade her space and lift her arms and measure her. You guess even if you’re both mainlanders, Keira’s a lot more used to being around girls.

Keira tries on both. She changes in front of everyone before the girls can stop her.

She does these little hip wiggling dances for each. It’s a little hypnotic. In the end, she decides to go with the tube top, though. She likes the sundress too, and it flows around her majestically like wind over a field of barley, but she says she wants the least restrictive clothes as possible. The light sundress is good for more formal events, though.

It comes time to pay for everything. Laki rings her stuff up. Hana rings hers up, but Keira is looking distraught. “I don’t have any money.”

Lend her the money, but only for one item of clothing. We're not rich.

You know I kind of wish we couldn't afford to buy her this and then later on we could make one for her.
That's something we should look into doing for all our new friends really. Not right this moment but as we get closer and get to know them better. That way they can all be personal and be that special shonen friendship reminder for when the going gets tough.
One for Jane too as what finally gets through to her that we want to be friends. Maybe not right when she gets it but eventually it will get through

“I can lend you what you need.” You reach for the money your sister gave you.

“I’ve never been in money debt before but I heard it’s a common custom for your people.” She looks at it as you place it in her hand. “But I don’t know when I can get you your money back.”

“Then just work it off. You’ll figure it out.” Laki moves ahead.

Keira looks to you to see if that’s okay.

“Sure. That’s fine with me.”

“Thanks!” She lights up. “Most of the time we get meals from the people or temples. We only normally own what we carry with us.”

Your group heads to the place with smaller Pokemon accessories. Everyone chats for a bit.

Keira goes to Hana. “What can I do for a boy that’s worth this much?”

Laki and Valerie snicker while Hana awkwardly tries to come up with something to say. You don’t get it.

You arrive at the Pokemon accessory store. Clothing and things are just a smaller section. They have vitamins, Pokeballs of varying degrees of quality, poffins, items, and more.

“So Pokemon are allowed to use items here?” Valerie asks.

“Yeah!” Hana answers. “I watched a lot of tournaments in the hospital and I was surprised when some regions had no items.”

“Most items are more trouble to carry than they’re worth.” Keira adds. “Most of the time a Pokemon’s natural abilities are more than enough without worrying about having a lot of material baggage. That’s what trainers are for.”

Huh. Good to know. You don’t have a lot of money left, though.

“Don’t worry about it.” Laki tells you as she hands you some cash. “I sold that nugget earlier. Here’s your half. Don’t make a big deal out of it.” She forces it into your pocket.

Everyone goes looking around for stuff to get their Pokemon. Yours all crowd around you. You look at the money Laki gave you. It’s not a huge amount, but it should cover enough. You’ll have to choose how you want to spend it, though.
