[MINI EVENT] ☆T A N A B A T A☆

[ulternnpc]

Those from the four regions of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh will be very familiar with the sight of bamboo stalks that are left outside decorated with colorful and sparkly paper decorations. There are people gathering around, helping one another put up paper amulet of varying colors to tie around the bamboo branches. On each amulet is a single wish that’s been handwritten by someone.

One can only hope that their wish will be heard…

At night, there’s a surprise to be found: an alternate colored Jirachi is out dressed in what’s clearly a handmade costume. Around its neck, is a colorful paper chain made of sparkly origami paper.



Not only has Jirachi come to grant wishes, Miniors are out and about bright and colorful. They’ll be dancing around seemingly trying to invite people to come join them in the festivities.

((OOC: Happy Tanabata! In the morning is a general mingle post. But as the evening sets in and Jirachi appears, it will start granting the wish written on your amulet whether big or small -- wealth, a long life, or maybe a way to return home. You're free to catch Miniors too, and there's a slightly better chance of encountering a shiny one as well. Just be careful of the ones still in their shell or you might just get a rather explosive surprise...

This event can take place at any town, so feel free to specify a location!))

[Alice is all about this! She's got her more normal friends out, Fate the Smoliv in her arms and Peeps the Torchic perched on top of her hat, and in the morning she'll deliberate for a moment and write a wish.]

I wish for a breakthrough in understanding the Ulternian drift phenomenon

[To the point, Alice. She doodles a little Dome Fossil on the slip too.

Later in the evening, she'll show up to the festival and check out the Minior, and she's... giving them Potions and Berries and noting down the results. Some are beginning to regrow the shells around their bodies, and Alice excitedly takes notes.

She does see Jirachi, and while she doesn't move to catch it, she does offer it an ice cream sandwich.]

You wouldn't be the one who knows Rey, would you? I wonder how she's doing out there.

Jirachi tilted its head at Alice's question, not knowing who she meant. But immediately its focus shifted towards the ice cream sandwich being offered to it, and hovered towards her before happily taking it.

To show its gratitude, Jirachi twirled around Alice. Yay! Free treats!

[Alice smiles and bows.] It's good to meet you. You must be busy -- this is your holiday in this world, right?
