Disrupted Delibirdery!
It's that time of the year nearing the end of the season--as yet again festive winter decorations are being plasters on every visible windows, and nook and crannies of Ultern. Both Ulternians and drifters alike seem to be in the holiday spirit given the unique takes and differences in ornaments on display.
Aside from island decorating, just what was going on today on the region of Ultern...? Hopefully some peace given what happened last holiday!

1. Everywhere, Anywhere
Just like the previous winter there just might be a sense that something, or someone is may be watching. Whether you're a Pokemon, or a person it doesn't matter. A pair of eyes just might be following you--with a sound of shuffling nearby.
What is it? Do you run, or perhaps go and investigate just what might be following around you...?
2. Glitterace Town + The Outskirts of Town
Normally, Dr. Unoya the Pokemon Doctor would be spotted inside the Pokemon Center. Maybe he felt awkward hanging around after what had transpired during the Harvesting Bonds Festival, or maybe it was something else entirely? His usually tired, pale self is looking rather animated. His eyes are wide, his hair a clear mess, with obvious dirt patches on his clothes.
Whoever is closeby he'll purposely step in front blocking their path. If unsuccessful, his Rookidee, Eloise will also help in grabbing your attention. In any case he'll start flailing and making his demands.
"You there! I need your assistance immediately! At once!"
3. Wildcard!
Obviously, time for your own prompt/header! Have fun and go wild! Happy Holidays!

[He recognizes Alice from last time!]
That's right, it's about the Delibirds! Something about them...they're acting strange!
no subject
[She pushes up her glasses and nods seriously.]
For the love of Dome. I'll see what's going on. What can you tell me?
no subject
[Dr. Unoya's eyes narrows not out of annoyance, but carefully considering Alice's words.]
...as you may know they're rather docile and wouldn't hurt anyone but for whatever reason they've clearly been upset. They wouldn't let me get close to them either. It's worrisome behavior. It's not like them to be so aggressive for no particular reason.
no subject
no subject
[He's grateful to see how reliable Alice is now that she's helping him out the second time.]
You'll find them in Route 3 at the further outskirts of this town. So please, find out what's been going on with them!
no subject
[She calls out her Altaria and climbs on.]
Let everyone else know. I'll go check on the Delibird.
[Altareon takes flight with Alice, off to scan Route 3 for anything suspicious.]
3 - At the Pokemon Center
In fact, upon even closer inspection Red can be seen carrying a clumsily wrapped gift in hand.]
no subject
[She hands Red a package. Oh, hey, it's not a textbook this time! ...It's a pack of spices? Guess she figured someone who travels a lot needs to cook... even if she herself is awful at it.]
no subject
...it's for you! Merry... ...happy Winter Wonder? Helixmas...? Both?
[He wasn't sure which to tell her, really. So many Holidays!]
no subject
[She opens the pack and smiles, looking over the mitts.]
This'll be useful if Articuno brings snow again this year! Or if something else happens. To tell you the truth, I'm worried. There's been a pattern of strange phenomena ever since the body-switching on Feast of the Sail, and at Harvesting Bonds it was dangerous.
no subject
She's sitting on a bench inside the Center, cup of cocoa in hand as she's trying to figure out where she wants to go next, when- ] - Red? [ Huh. What're the odds! ]
no subject
Boy is he happy to see her! He had meant to catch up but in absolute Red fashion he got sidetracked with walking around the same patch of grass for a while. Time keeps flying somehow....]
....hi!
[He's happily walking closer to Tallie while holding the poorly wrapped gift still.]
no subject
And if her cheeks are at all pink? It's because she's still warming up. Clearly. No other reason. ] Happy Winter Wonder.
no subject
[It was a beautiful winter day as Augustine Sycamore strolled around the Seaside Trail. He was wearing a new winter outfit he bought for the season and not only that, he and Garchomp made a new friend in the form of a Skiddo. He found it prancing around and it grew fond of him after feeding it a few berries. Now it has become one of his research partners in the Ultren region.
Of course, this also meant having a few more eyes as Skiddo and Garchomp noticed something rustling in the bushes. It took Augustine a few seconds to hear their growls as he turned around.]
Calm down, you two. Did you find something? [He looks at the rustling bushes.] Oh? What do we have here?

[Later, he is strolling in the city, hoping to find a cafe to take a break. But then, he was interrupted by a Rookidee grabbing his wrist and trying to drag him away to no avail.]
Huh? What's the matter, little guy? Did something happen?
[From the looks on the bird, Augustine decides to follow it where he finds Dr. Unoya asking him for his assistance.]
Is something the matter, Dr. Unoya?
2
[He'll hold his hand out for his Rookidee to perch on. Soon after he'll turn to Sycamore with a nod.]
It's the Delibirds. They're not acting like their usual selves. I need to figure out what's upsetting them so but I can't do that on my own exactly.
Re: 2
[While Dr. Unoya's description of the situation was vague, he couldn't ignore it out of concern.]
Did something happen that would cause their strange behavior?
no subject
I'm not sure...usually they have no issues with anyone approaching them. They wpuld never hurt anyone, yet today...when I came too close they lashed out. I don't understand why...
[His head is hanging with a deep sigh.]
It's not like them at all...every single one of them seem to be on edge.
no subject
Can you lead me to where the Delibirds are? I like to see them with my own eyes.
[If there's anything he learned from his experience as a Pokemon Professor is that he would investigate their behavior before looking for the source of the issue. That way, he might figure out why they were like that.]
no subject
Come, I'll show you where they are.
[Dr. Unoya then gestures the professor to follow along as he leads the way, venturing into the further outskirts of the town until they are able to spot a flock of red-and-white bird Pokemon gathered around on the road. Though they seem more shinier than usual.]
Please if you could figure out what's going on with them, I would greatly appreciate it.
no subject
Well... I didn't expect this... [He hums in thought.] They look like Delibirds, but I think they look more like robotic duplicates than genuine Pokemon.

"What's the problem? Are you injured?"

"Eevee-vee?!" says Eevee.

"Oh no, you spotted me!" He'll pip up before going back into hiding--except the tuft of his head is still visible from within the bushes.

But then, a doctor blocked her path, forcing them to stop to avoid crashing into him on time.]
Hey, watch it! I'd almost hurt you if it wasn't for Miraidon.
[Her Miraidon glares at her.]
Right, it's partially my fault for not looking, sorry. [She takes a deep breath.] What is it, doctor?
no subject
Never mind that--please, can you come with me? I need a help of a trainer. There's a group of Pokemon I want to look after as they're behaving strangely compared to normal.
no subject
Uh, sure... I'm okay with seeing those Pokemon.
[She and her Miraidon then follow the doctor to wherever he found the strange Pokemon.]
