[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!))

In theory more than in practice, these days.

[He's never really had any Pokemon that were his. His closest Pokemon companion was the first Miraidon, who has long since found a true partner, and those poor creatures from the machine never wanted to be there in the first place. But Turo still remembers other days, and knows plenty of theory besides. He could be a trainer, if he liked.

But that all matters less than what Lillie has to say.]

Is that so? Well - don't be upset! There's a number of trainers here, so I'm sure that they can all be caught and treated!

[timidlyblooming]

It doesn't always work, but, it's worth trying! [Lillie said honestly.

They might be captured and still fade away...]

But, I didn't understand your answer, do you mean you don't train Pokemon anymore...?

[tworo]

I haven't for some time. Not since I began pursuing my studies seriously. But I have been...considering picking it up again.

[That's a thing people do, isn't it? He remembers the Academy having older students.]

[timidlyblooming]

It's never too late for a Pokemon journey!

[Yes, that's absolutely something you can pick up, even later in life.]

[tworo]

No? I suppose not. Well - I should meet them, then!

[Let's go interact with these Minior and see if he gets along well with any of them! He's got some potions, so he can treat them without immediately catching any.]
