[MINI EVENT] ☆T A N A B A T A☆

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!))

There's one spot in Alola where they usually land -- there's a big hill near the Hokulani Observatory and you'll find plenty of them at night. Watching them fall down from the sky, then float back up again... it's really pretty!

[X replied while watching the other Miniors happily floating, and dancing.]
I guess they wouldn't stand out like this if they have fallen during the day...
[The Minior near Ash let out another trill, chime like sound as it pulled away and began to jiggle in front of Ash and X. It was as if the Minior was inviting them to follow along. Taking note, X pocketed his Pokedex away before glancing over to the other Minior who seemed content interacting with both Coiffe and Pikachu still.]
Looks like they really want to play with us.

Well, what are we waiting for? Let's get going!
[Can't waste any more time when they'll need it to keep it happy until the end. And so, he lets Minior lead the way as he follows behind.]
no subject
I should have brought a camera with me. I hope Alice and the others are seeing this.
[He'll comment while looking between the happy Miniors, still oblivious to their fates.]
