joy on helixmas morn (even for domeists)
[1) Alice's Lab]
[In the days leading up to Helixmas, or Christmas, or "whatever you want it to be" as Dr. Unoya put it last year, Alice can be most often found in her lab in the Shrouded Woods. She's currently cleared off one of the bulletin boards and is mulling over what's best described as a conspiracy wall, with yarn connecting photos of the different Legendaries that popped up over the past year, news articles about the Malamar incident at the last Harvesting Bonds Festival, copied texts about the festival in general, and any reports of evil-team activity she can possibly find. You may come in to her pacing back and forth, focused on the board, until Hyperbug buzzes and Alice turns around.]
Oh! Sorry, you gave me a start! Did you need something?
[2) Turnbloom Market]
[But, well, it is multiple gift-giving holidays, and even if Alice doesn't celebrate any of them, it's always good to appreciate your friends. To that end, she's made the trek to the biggest centre on the island a few days before to do some more last-minute shopping. She looks over a hand-knitted Wiki plush and hums.]
I know all the textbooks didn't go over well last year, but what does everybody want?
[3) anywhere]
[Alice has the determination of a scientist and three team members who know Fly, so she'll head out to find you and deliver your gift herself! Don't be surprised if she shows up wherever you happen to be. Don't worry, it isn't programming textbooks this year. Probably.]

[It takes him a second but he recalled talking about the holidays with Alice. He'll nod along.]
It slipped my mind...how's the shopping going? Did you find anything?

[There's a smile and a chuckle in reaponse from X. He could only imagine their faces from the presents.]
It is hard trying to shop for someone else. ....I wouldn't mind getting a textbook. You never know when that information will come to use.

Getting to know more about Pokemon biology sounds like a good idea. While the Pokedex is useful, it doesn't give you all the details.

You're right, actually. I'm surprised more trainers don't go in depth learning about that sort of thing. Especially if they're trying to go pro.

[He'll smile at that thought.]
But having the knowledge to help doesn't hurt either.
