Day at the races!
Who: Everyone!
Where: Moo Moo Farms
When: Saturday, March 20th
Summary:
The day is as lovely as you can expect any early spring day to be. You'll need a coat, yes, and there is a bit of a breeze, but the sun shines happily onto the wooden buildings that make up the Moo Moo Farms where we have all gathered today.
The various farm workers have worked hard to make their farm presentable to the public. Cheerful banners hang between the various sheds, stables and barns, which all have been given a bit of a cleaning (and perhaps a new coat of paint here and there). Of course, it is still a farm, so perhaps don't wear your very best shoes, but as far as farms go, it's been made as neat as can be.
And while the main draws of the day may be releasing the Miltank herd out onto the pasture again after a long winter inside -- whimsically called 'Cow Ballet' on the info sign -- and the Great Tauros Race, Moo Moo Farms has set up various little events and booths to entertain their guests, and perhaps teach them a thing or two about farm life.
A large information sign stands at the gate to the farm, letting visitors know what sort of events are taking place, as well as where and when these are happening. The two big ones -- the Miltank Ballet and the Tauros Race -- are spaced in such a way that people can easily attend both, and most of the other little events are available throughout the entire day.
The Miltank Ballet will be taking place at 1PM over by the big barn. There is little you can do to participate in this (unless you are a cow?), but if you want to watch some ecstatic Miltank dance through the mud and grass after a long winter inside, you should definitely come check this out.
The Tauros Race will start at 4PM (sign ups close at 3PM) and anyone who wants to help give the Tauros a good round of exercise is encouraged and welcome to sign up. There is, according to the sign, a small mystery prize to be won, but surely we are all here because we want to help some cooped up Tauros, right?
In addition to those two big events, two paddocks have been made ready where visitors can test themselves against a Bucking Bronco -- that's his name, Bronco the Bouffalant -- to see how long they can last in the saddle. Due to safety concerns, participants for this event will need to be 16+. For the children, there is a separate rodeo in which they can ride Vaquero the Dubwool, who, for all his seemingly wild behaviour, is actually a very well trained Dubwool who'll make sure no harm comes to the kids.
Of course, while people are free to bring their own food, the Moo Moo Farms have also set up a wide variety of booths where people can buy anything from fresh Moo Moo Milk and milkshakes to freshly made cheese and bread, and oh, is that apple pie? That most certainly is apple pie, as well as various other homey pastries. And as the day goes on, and people might start craving something a little less sweet and more filling, a booth opens up selling various curries. Don't worry, there won't be any Snorlax you need to share with this time!
And for anyone who has found themselves wanting and craving a bovine of their own after all these cute sights, you are in luck! Amidst the various booths, there is also one run by two cheery farm girls, advertising a sale on eggs! All the eggs that are normally available from the Moo Moo Farms can be bought at a whopping 50% discount. Mind that this is only on the purchase price of the egg itself. The price for any additional egg-moves remains the same.
There are also some other, smaller things set up, such a station where you can learn about milking a Miltank and a barrel where you can bob for apples, and even a horseshoe toss game. Most of these are definitely aimed towards teaching and entertaining little kids, but nobody will stop you if you decide to muscle past a row of Youngsters to claim the apple bobbing barrel.

Izuku's more than ready to battle with Katsuki, though he hopes that Mighty can coordinate his efforts with his trainer well. He seems so easily distracted sometimes that Izuku wonders...]
Alright! Which one of us goes first?
no subject
[ His little Eevee bounds over, jingling all the way. She's a sweetheart and a bundle of energy, but hey! When it comes down to it, she's all buisness.
So she'll start things off with a Quick Attack! ]
no subject
Time for Izuku to see if he can remember even half of the moves Mighty knows. Fortunately, at this low of a level and unevolved, there aren't too many.]
Uh-! Use Sand Attack!
[It's not an attacking move, but since he knows Katsuki will likely go on the all-offensive...maybe he can get her to start missing.]
no subject
Anyway. Quick Attack can't be stopped. So Ribbons does slam into Mighty before trotting to get some space. Sand Attack hits, of course and she starts to shake her head and rub at her eyes to dislodge the sand.
A good time for a follow up? If not she's going to swing her tail around for Tail Whip. ]
no subject
Use Quick Attack now!
[It's Mighty's turn to hit first!]
no subject
Mighty smacks into Ribbons sure enough - ]
Shake it off and follow through!
[ Which he might! Come on what about that Tail Whip! ]
no subject
Tail Whip is new, and it succeeds in lowering Mighty's defense a stage. Izuku is still getting used to the way status moves work here, and it doesn't visibly seem to have done much...but that might end up biting him in the ass for being too reckless if he isn't careful, because he doesn't try to offer up any similar retaliation beyond the Sand Attack. Maybe if he pushes offense hard enough he can get the upper hand before anything bad happens.]
Go again, Quick Attack!
no subject
Gotta use your brain Deku.
[ Because sure, that works. He might slam into Ribbons but - ]
Use Growl.
[ Because that's going to lower Mighty's attack - ]
THEN FOLLOW UP WITH QUICK ATTACK!
no subject
But it also means some tough love in getting that experience. Izuku can only really watch as Mighty's attacks do less and less damage, and on top of that his defense is down, which means...
Ribbons hits her Quick Attack, and before Izuku can catch up with what's happening, Mighty sways in place...and abruptly falls over.]
Mighty-!?
[He's okay of course, but it's clear he's fainted, as Pokemon do when they lose all of their strength to keep going. It does prompt Izuku to rush over to where he ended up though, gently lifting the Eevee into his arms as he blinks back awake, though very much too weakened to keep fighting.]
I think...that's probably enough. You guys win.
no subject
Ah. I was just getting started.
[ It's fine though. Bakugou goes to retrieve his bag from Typh. He then scoops Ribbons up in one arm. Digs around in the bag...
And tosses Deku a potion.
Just don't mention it. ]
no subject
Oh...thank you.
[Oops he mentioned it.
But he'll quickly get to work applying said potion. He at least knows how to do this since Mighty is ALWAYS GETTING DAMAGED...]
I guess Mighty and I still have a lot to learn.
no subject
You read your guides and all the manuals right?
[ Since they all receive those. ]
no subject
[Izuku, usually, is a master of thinking outside the box in a split second. But that's when it applies to him. He's not as used to having to give orders to other people.]
no subject
[ But then again Katsuki is kind of used to barking orders. ]
no subject
[And it would be different if it were simply directions, but it isn't. They're moves, and Pokemon can learn a LOT of moves.]
It's just a lot to remember.
no subject
[ Katsuki rubs the back of his neck, making a face. ]
Unless you never plan on training any brats like us.
no subject
[Actually, you know what-]
Do you have any other Pokemon around Mighty's level, Kacchan? We can battle again!
[Izuku wait]
no subject
[ Because no! No he doesn't have something on Mighty's level. ]
My next lowest is like forty-five or some shit.
no subject
[Yeah, oh.]
Well...I'll just have to get stronger, then. And I'll catch up to you before you know it. You'll see!
no subject
Ha! If you can't even direct their actions, how can you possibly keep up?
no subject
[It's not his fault they have so many...]
no subject
[ Forever waiting for you Dekuuuuu ]
no subject
[Izuku scoops Mighty up off the ground as he says that, who seems to have mostly recovered and is already itching to start running around again.]
And I'll start by winning that Tauros race!
[Wait, when did that come into play...]
no subject
[ Okay Deku what the fuck... ]
What's that got to do with anything?
no subject
You have to know how to give a Pokemon orders to do well in a battle, right? It's got to be the same for a race.
