[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!))

I'll help, but I can't catch them all on my own.
[In fact he'll even pull out his Chesnaught, Marisso to send him out. Turning to him, X placed a hand onto Chesnaught's arm.]
Marisso I'll need your help too.
no subject
We'll do our best! I think... you won't even have to battle if you can explain it to them, I think they might let you capture them.
Like... Minior? If you go inside the pokeball, it might be enough to keep you alive, wouldn't that be nice? It'll keep you safe, like a new shell!
no subject
[X will stare at the Pokeball in his hand and glanced at the nearest Minior obliviously floating by. He'll glance to both Marisso and Coiffe who had their attention on X. Sighing, X tossed the Pokeball with his eyes instinctively closing shut in the process. As a result the Pokeball missed it's mark however--]
Marisso use Vinewhip on the Pokeball!
[His Chesnaught will happily obliged in correcting the course.]
[d'aww--maybe his Pokemon can divert this one too]
After a stunned moment of silence, Lillie burst into giggles.]
I'm sorry, I'm just... so glad I'm not the only person who has trouble hitting the mark!
[She managed to catch another one without a problem! But when she goes to throw another pokeball—sorry, X, it's going for your head!]
no subject
It's not so easy throwing them.
[He'll admit while glancing to the Minior he had somehow managed to catch with Marisso's help. While he still had his gaze over to the Pokeball still, he will point in the direction of the Pokeball heading for his head.]
Coiffe, use Water Gun.
[His Quaxly will use Water Gun to course correct of Lillie's Pokeball towards the closest Minior. While he's doing that, X will lift up the Pokeball with his recently caught Minior. He can see it smiling through the Pokeball.
Pulling out another empty one, X gave a glance to Marisso with a nod, before tossing yet another Pokeball. Which, he of course shut his eyes the moment he threw it towards another Minior.]
no subject
It isn't... seasoned trainers make it look so easy! I supposed that's the way most things are, with practice.
[This sort of chaotic pokeball-tossing will probably continue until they've captured all they can!]
... should we rehome them? Or take them to the lab?
no subject
[Of course, he wasn't very good at it despite his experiences with battling. He'll nod in agreement while continuing their Pokeping pong with his Pokemon--until they're out of Pokeballs. Looking at the ones in his arms, and to Lillie X contemplated his options.]
Rehoming them, as in sending them back up right? I could give it a try.
[In fact he's already reaching in to pulling out one of his other Pokeballs. It was better to give it a try first, than rushing to ask the Professors for help. Not that he didn't trust them.]
