Day at the races

[indigo_league]

Who: Anyone coming to race!
Where: Circuit de Kantochamps
When: September 15th
Summary: Farrah Ari has a problem and she has appealed to you for help!
Log:


On September 15, all who have given heed to Farrah's plea for help gather at Circuit de Kantochamps over in, well, Kanto. UBIRDS were arranged by Farrah for the event (she really, really wants someone to beat these little jerks) so anyone, anywhere is welcome to join!

Once you arrive at the Circuit, Farrah can be seen pacing and muttering to herself, her Cyclizar Charles trying his level best to calm her down. It doesn't look like she is interested in a chat right now. Neither would you be, probably, if your Circuit was absolutely flooded with strange Tentacool knock-offs (If you scan them with your gear, the Pokedex will tell you these pokemon are called Toedscool) who are all jumping around, stretching, wrestling a bit amongst each other and being a rather general nuisance. Though if anyone tries to tell them off, they very quickly flee to hide behind--

Oh good god.

That's an absolutely massive Tentacruel-- no, Toedscruel. She towers over the many little Toedscool, patting them with her massive tentacles, and having the audacity to glare at you if you even dare to look slightly funny at her very precious brood.

Unfortunately, because of how quickly Farrah had to put this all together, there aren't a lot of side activities available at the circuit right now. There is The Race obviously, but apart from that, you are free to check out The Stables where Farrah's Cyclizar are being kept. If you are interested in borrowing one for the race, you might want to head over there a little early and get to meet your new ride.

The other thing that is available is A Small Museum. And we do mean small! It's barely two rooms, but it is filled with memorabilia of Cyclizar racers and racing from outside of this region. It honestly looks less like a formal museum, and more like someone's personal collection that has grown massively out of control. But hey, if you have an interest in learning a bit more about Cyclizar racing (or if you just want a quiet place to flee the crowd) feel free to check it out.

[Luna nodded, glad someone else felt the same way.]

Oh, that sounds very interesting. Many plants back home can be poisonous, even if they're lovely and useful in some ways. [There was that herbology knowledge.] They have to be handled carefully, but I'm not surprised grass and poison types exist. I am surprised, however, that there aren't more. Aren't Bulbasaurs also grass and poison?

[senorita_perfecta]

Yep. There are plenty of plants that are considered as poisonous in my world too. One has to be very careful in handling them on a daily basis. Those kinds of plants are of big interest for me too since I am always looking out for anything interesting beyond more conventional floral choices.

Ooh wow. That is great to hear and know. I have gotten to learn about Bulbasaurs as well for some time, although I haven’t the chance to catch or get one right now. I might consider it as a possible new Pokémon to obtain and train in the near future.

[looneylovegood]

That sounds like me with animals. [Luna looked quite happy to find something of a kindred spirit.]

Bulbasaurs are very cute, and their final evolution can be quiet powerful, especially once you're able to Mega Evolve one. Venusaur is also a quadraped and very large, which makes it excellent for helping with hauling cargo or carrying people as needed.

[senorita_perfecta]

Wow! That is even more amazing than what I can imagine. This is going to get me more driven to find a Bulbasaur someday and raise and train them well. A battling powerhouse, a cargo handler and a handy transportation? Talk about being a very versatile Pokémon.

[looneylovegood]

Mm-hm. It really is. I hope you find a good one.

[Luna didn't have any, otherwise she'd offer to breed one.]

[senorita_perfecta]

Oh gee thank you so much. I do hope that I will find a good one out there in the wild and we can be the best of friends along the way.

[looneylovegood]

[Luna nodded.]

I do feel like I've become very good friends with some of my Pokémon, too. It's a good feeling.

[senorita_perfecta]

I agree with that as well. I have started to become really good friends with many of my Pokémon too. It feels really wonderful when there is a great strong bond between the Pokémon and the people who look after them and train them.

[looneylovegood]

[Luna nodded.]

Indeed, it does. I hope all our Pokémon bonds end up strong.

[senorita_perfecta]

Yes! I agree with that sentiment as well. Every Pokémon deserves a great trainer and a loving relationship that will allow them to grow and be happy.

[looneylovegood]

Mm-hm. [Luna nodded.]

It was good talking with you, Isabela. I shall see you again soon, right?

[senorita_perfecta]

Oh yes. That would be pretty wonderful. It is a lot of fun getting to have this talk with you, Luna. Maybe we can meet again at some other time at another event similar to this.
