Who: Everyone and anyone!
What: The Eve's Garden Circus is open for spring! Come one, come all, and have the time of your life!
When: March 14 (and the rest of the week through the weekend, the circus doesn't close)
Where: Goldenrod
The Eve's Garden Circus has been a constant in Goldenrod for four years, now. It's brilliantly colored Big Top can be seen even from down the street, and it makes a fine marker for anyone flying in. Past its ticket booth guarded gates lie rows of game stalls, food alleys with heavenly smells, and various set ups from local shops or craftsman with everything from face painting to handmade goods available. While it's often been open, with the main shows playing on weekends, this month it's been especially ramping up to welcome spring.
So come in, enjoy some food, watch a show, and relax!
♤ Flight Service
Before the handy days of teleportation, the Circus offered its own Fly service to help people get to the Circus with a one-way ticket, or a return one to get right back to where they came from! Needless to say, these days, there's not much use for it.... However, some still prefer a more scenic view coming into Goldenrod, or they just want to get a nice view of the city before coming down for a little bit. Either way, various Flying types, courtesy of Falkner, are available for anyone, for a small fee.
♤ Gamer's Alley
It wouldn't be a circus if there weren't any games, would it...?
And boy, are there a bunch of them in this corner of the circus, all of them with their own various prizes to win from simple "magic" wanders to stuffed toys bigger then most people. There's something for everyone, from simple balloon popping to corkgun aiming to picking a floating toy Ducklett with a potential lucky number on the bottom. Heck, pick up a hammer and test your strength!
With everything being metaphorically and literally fun and games, feel free to try some a game or five! And only a couple of them are rigged. Just be careful not to cheat... Among Joker's personal 'troupe' of Pokemon are more than a few Psychic types, and they'll quietly alert stall owners if they think someone is cheating with either skill or Pokemon of their own.
Along with the usual games, however, there are also plenty of other things which are more of an experience than anything. A carousel with all sorts of Pokemon, known and Legendary alike, is available for a simple little ride for children, and people who like getting dizzy. There's also a funhouse of a maze available for people to wander and get lost through, with mirror mazes and moving floors galore.
♤ Circus Food
Now what could be called the best part of the circus.
For those who love the classics, don't worry. The scent of buttery popcorn fills the air, and one rarely needs to go far before stumbling onto someone selling cotton candy. Want a hot dog? There's plenty. Want to try something fried that should never be fried? Yeah, don't worry, there's those, too.
It's not all wildly unhealthy food, however. Welcoming in spring means that there's a lot of seasonal foods being sold as well, some more light than the heavier junk food that's about. Sakura mochi seems to be a pretty popular thing that's being sold at more than a few stalls... Sakura is in a lot of things, actually, from desserts to... lattes? There's also a lot of fresh strawberries from certain stalls, some dipped in delicious things like chocolate and others plain. There are also simple things such as chicken and corn on sticks, and other things.
There's something for everyone, so make sure to dig in and enjoy yourself!
♤ Shopping Stalls
For all that they're definitely the draw of the circus, delicious food and fun games aren't the only things it has to offer. Eve's Garden Circus likes to think of itself as a place where various small creators can promote themselves. Who knows- if you run a business, perhaps you've been invited to set up shop!
Either way, there are all sorts of things on sale to welcome in the new year. Some are artists, offering drawings of trainers and-or their Pokemon, or to paint their face with something. Others offer much more physical goods: blankets with various Pokemon patterns, homemade plushes of just about every Grass and Bug type you can imagine...
And did you know that flower crowns are in right now? Oh, sure, floral accessories seem to be a constant in general, whether those are simple earrings or pressed flowers made into light glass bowties. But it's really the flower crows that are a hit, and anyone venturing in will find plenty of people trying to sell them. Hey, it's spring. Why not give it a go?
♤ Showtime
What really makes a circus aren't the games, or the food, or anything else... but the show lying behind the flaps of the Big Top. There, people will get to see all sorts of dazzling things, from a certain daring young woman performing daredevil tricks on her steed, to a pair of 'siblings' doing an amazing trapeze act high up in the air. Should that small child be allowed around throwing knives? Don't worry about it.
It's not only humans who are taking part of the act, either! All of Joker's troupe have a part to play, whether that's the Charizard zooming high speed in the air, or a shiny Zoroark creating amazing illusions to take people's breath away.
Sit back, and enjoy the show. Plenty of applause is more than welcome when the finale hits, as various flowers float throughout the air.
...Just don't try to follow the performers, Pokemon or otherwise, through the backdoors to the staff area. They'll kick you out if they find you, which they will sooner than later. This is a place for rest, drinks and snacks and all, and it's employees only.
♤ Welcoming Spring!
To celebrate the warmer weather coming back... All trainers who enter with a grass type Pokemon in their team will get a discount! But that's not all... Those very same trainers will be given a shimmering rainbow ribbon, which their grass type Pokemon is encouraged to hold onto. (Only one per team, Ivy.) They, and any other trainers who come through, will be told of a game that's being played...
Capture the ribbons!
The name of the game is getting other ribbons from other people in the carnival, whether through cunning, battle, or just asking nicely, if that's your thing. Trade in your ribbons for fantastic prizes!
Not only that.... but Joker's own Pokemon are taking part in the festivities! For anyone who manages to nab one of the special ribbons for the ringleader's own, they'll find a special prize for those...
Here's the list of things that can be exchanged for the ribbons!
1 ribbon: A candy Pokeball
5 ribbons: A marble Bulbasaur succulent holder! Succulent included.
10 ribbons: A backpack shaped like a Bulbasaur's bulb! Very sturdy.
20 ribbons: A life-sized Serperior plush. Yes, the full ten feet. It is fortunately not 139 pounds, although the amount of sturdy stuffing in it sure must be impressive.
For those who capture one of Joker's pokemon and their ribbons, they get the honor of being allowed to choose two different TMs from the Department Store, and the Circus will happily foot the bill! But only two.
So go out, celebrate spring, and have fun!

[... One of which may or may NOT be spotting this shaggy ragamuffin (shagamuffin, if you will) in tattered purple silks monkeying about on TOP of the game stalls, bouncing from one canvas roof to the next like they were trampolines. As he is just as small but not... being quite as sneaky as Newt, it's safe to say the only reason he's getting away with this is because he's an ACTUAL member of the circus, but this doesn't stop him from seeing another young child wandering around down on the ground and shouting:]
HEY!!
Wanna come play with me?
no subject
Okay!
[Half the games on the colony were play in vents we're not supposed to be in and sneak into places we're not supposed to go......Newt is not even considering if this is against rules or anything.
She just goes and starts to climb up onto a game stall.]
no subject
[It's that knife kid.]
[Nobody messes with the knife kid.]
[Then he flips back up, grinning again.]
[If he remembers arguing with her on the network about names, apparently he's over it.]
I'm Wrath!
no subject
I'm Newt!
no subject
Animals are good.
Newt! Do you like to pretend you're jumping over a thing that you can't touch?
[No one has ever told him it's called the Lava Game-- he just instinctively likes to do it.]
no subject
[To both.]
Oh we played that at home. The floor will kill you game!
[What is lava. Apparently the older kids changed the game somewhere along the lines to fit into the colony better. So she knows it better as the floor is outside with no air, which got shortened to the floor will kill you game.]
no subject
Are you good at it?
[You sort of have to be with the version he has in mind-- since it involves bouncing around on top of the tents and not falling and cracking your head open. :T]
no subject
[Because you never admit to any kids that you might be bad at a game. Also she's actually not bad. It's no hide and seek where she is the ruling queen but she should be fine with the extreme version. Her pokemon Ripley might be following them below just in case anyway.]
