Gobble. I'm going to touch you appropriately.

You look some bamboo. Luckily, it seems to grow pretty heavily here. You’re the farthest thing from an arborist, but even you can spot it in the wild.

“Alright gang, let’s get to work!”

You wonder how much you’re supposed to get. You figure he’d probably tell you if it was more than you could carry, so you decide on that for your limit.

Your pokemon help, in their own ways. Bella is trying to cut a bamboo shoot down, and slowly getting some practice to a move that looks like Cut to you. You’ve always heard it was sub-par in battle but great to know for stuff like this. Maybe she’ll learn it with time?

Dice chews a shoot down, but he starts chewing that one up after.

Gobble works hard at first to knock a few over, but gets distracted when he finds that young bamboo shoots are edible. He stops eating them. You think maybe he’s full, but instead he walks to your bag, gets some spices, applies them, then goes back to eating. Besides him being a little heavy on the salt, you’re very proud.

“Gobble! That one has a bug on it. Don’t...nevermind.”

You glance to Mace. He’s using moves like Headbutt to crack them at their base. It’s not that effective because they’re a little springy, but he’s working hard.

You’re having a hard time of it yourself. You don’t have any saws. You resort to using your good serrated knife from your cooking set.

After a good long while, you wipe the sweat from your brow, and gather up all the shoots. You plot onto the ground next to it with your pokemon. “Good job. Take a break, everyone. We’ll head back after.”

What an exhausting day. Your body is already seizing up like a rusted thing that seizes. You don’t know mechnical stuff. You lie there for a bit, thinking.

Super comfy. Great image. Out-of-focus background really gives an impression of depth and makes Moon pop out. Sand, sunlight, and soft towel all look super inviting. Moon herself is easily recognizable, her pose shows off her assets well without looking unnatural, and her smile invites me to stay. It's obvious that she's nude sunbathing on a beach in alola, and turning to give us her attention. Her hair and skin have a healthy shine to them which makes them look even softer. Face is a little angular though. Artist signature is easy to find and legible without being intrusive. Even the censor bars are in good fun. Makes me happy, like she and I could fuck right there or just relax in the sun together and it wouldn't matter which. Welcome to Alola/10.

You let your mind go where it will. You heard that was what you’re supposed to do when meditating, but people get all caught up on trying not to try and it just turns screwy.

Well, you won’t bother with any of that. Too tired. You just lie down, looking up at the trees and sky, feeling the breeze and your pokemon. A leaf reminds you of a spice, a cloud looks like beautiful womanly hips, a smell reminds you of the field by your old home, the way Gobble stretches and lies back down is exactly the same way your little brother did in his crib when he was new to the world.

You close your eyes. Deep inside you see coloured threads. You don’t have think what they are. You just feel their relation to your own mind and aura. You reach out and pull one.

You tug on the blue one. You’re not the luckiest person around, or the most competent, so anything you do to keep your failures from being too bad or numerous is a good thing. Mom had this plaque on the door to her office that read “Amateurs practice till they get it right; professionals practice till they can't get it wrong.” It’s a little cheesy, but it always sounded like good advice to you. You let yourself get wrapped in the thread. And for some reason, you think your abilities are just a little more reliable.

Hmm, you could go for something with melted cheese.

Woah! What time is it? Your pokemon are gathered around you still, which makes you relieved. Dice even got inside his pokeball somehow.

You scrounge for your pokedex. Before you can even get it out, you hear a spot a dark figure under the weak moonlight. Definitely human shaped.

“Hello?”

It bursts into a run. Before you can even move, the figure leaps through the air at you. Arms and legs fly open wide and it impacts on you like a net.

“Herb!”

“Keira?” You aren’t sure how you’re able to stand up. Your pokemon, who scattered, come crawling back out. At least they have the decency to look embarrassed about it. You already forgive them, though. You were scared too.

“Yeah-huh! How are you? Everyone was worried.”

“Umm. Fine. I’m really sorry. I guess I fell asleep.”

She slowly slides down your body until she gets low enough to make your heart race for a different reason, then she shoots back up to face you. “It’s okay. I kept telling them you’re fine. I can tell with these things. But I couldn’t sleep. I was setting up wards for the ship so everyone would calm down about the ghost from before.” She narrows her eyes at you for a second. At your hair. The moonlight glints off the concentrated moisture. “Hey. I didn’t notice this before, but I thought I saw something in your aura. Something...aww, nevermind. Just glad to see you.”

She takes your hand and guides you back. You glance back to make sure your pokemon are following, and they are glued to you.

She hums while leading the way.

“Excited for your next gym battle?”

it's the bottom set of teeth

no anime character has a full set of teeth

I really like non-traditional goals in these kinds of stories. Getting all the badges, going to all the contests, those are boring and standard. I remember thinking Vance's goal of just getting better at his fucking hobby was much more interesting and open ended.

At the beginning I was completely on board with focusing on becoming a master chef, but with recent developments I'm actually beginning to wonder if we should be come a fucking magic enlightened Pokemon guru.

I definitely want to focus hardcore on developing ourself, independent of hardcore goals at the very least. The gyms and shit can come second.

>>1223616
While I'm not as into the idea of becoming an enlightened Pokemon guru, I agree 100% that goals unrelated to the gyms are way more interesting, and that those should be our primary focus.

>>1223616
Agreed. I don't mind doing gyms, but I'd rather avoid an overly huge focus on training pokemon.

>>1223673
I remember when we picked exploration as our initial goal. I'm still down for that.

>>1223592
This.

I think we should do the gyms and all but it should not be the primary focus, going on adventures and exploring sounds more fun; the gyms are just an excuse to go to these places.

I like collecting badges though, I love meeting all the gym leaders and going through their challenges. Hell the fire gym has been hands down my favorite of the gyms counting the ones from this quest and the last one.

>>1223681
I prefer a nice balance of training and side quest. We do need to work on some of our mons move list. (Mace getting Sandstorm, some asking for Gobble to learn Recycle, etc)

>>1223693
there is no reason that for the most part the side quest can't BE the training, take how Bella almost just learned Cut. Standard training is not necessary if we develop an innovative enough work program.

>>1223702
Well a lot of the innovation can be hit and miss. We can still do some traditional training to refine and get those attacks down.

>>1223714
I agree, but I far more balanced approach then what Kat took could be fun and effective.

>>1223682
>>1223691

I agree. Exploring with our friends, pushing each other to pursue our hobbies, getting strong enough to take on the gyms, in that order. I like meeting the gym leaders, and the burning temple challenge was a great new take on stuff like this.

“I don’t think I’m ready. And we just arrived, so I want to do a lot of training first.”

“Well, don’t work yourself too hard. You look pretty tired.” She feels your forehead. “If you keep going so hard, you’ll get sick.

“Thanks. Oh yeah. How’s Hana?”

“She’s doing well! Laki tracked almost everything down and said she’d get the last thing tomorrow.”

“And umm, how are things between them?”

“Hmm? Oh, fine. Laki’s been extra nice.” She helps you back onto the boat. She’s a lot quieter now. She can move like a shadow when she wants to. You wouldn’t know she was there if she wasn’t in front of you.

You ask her about auras, and if she can teach you anything.

She clasps her hands together. “Can we? Oh! I’d like that a lot! I’m not a master of it or anything, but I can teach you the basics, and brew helpful teas, and we can intermingle our auras.” She pokes her fingers together. “Erm, that last part can get a little... personal.”

“Thanks.”

“No problem! But first you need some sleep.”

Yeah. She’s right about that. You can barely keep your eyes open. You and your pokemon go to your cabin and get ready for bed. You crawl in and get nice and cozy in your boxers as you feel the soft sheets embrace you for whatever’s left of the night.

There’s a soft knock on the door.

“Herb?” It’s Valerie. She slowly opens the door. “Hey. Sorry. I heard you come in. I can’t sleep.”

You do your best to assure her that it’s fine. Your eyelids are so heavy.

She pulls on her hair and looks around. “Anyway, if you don’t want to, it’s fine, but can we sleep here?” Her pokemon peak around from behind her. “That ghost really scared us, and I spent last night in Laki’s bed, but things are getting...well, that’s not important. And Hana is already asleep and I can’t move her to get in beside her.”

>Sure. You’ll sleep on the floor.

We ask her which she's more comfortable with. Sounds like she wants to be close to someone

If *I* were in that situation I'd sleep on the fucking floor, but I'm pretty sure Herb is dopey enough that he may actually be a little slow on the uptake as far as sexual tension goes.

Alternatively, she may be trying to sleep with Herb because she sees him as less sexually threatening than Laki, which is kind of sad.

Very good worldbuilding in this one. Moon's Stantler costume provides some love to a rarely seen pokemon, and its bagginess looks comfortable. Lillie's costume is cute without seeming like something she'd be afraid to wear in public. The picture seems to be of Moon and Lillie out on a date, and each of them are excited in their own way, with Moon having the confidence Lillie lacks. Glad ion in the background helps draw our eyes to the girls' booty and provides a cute joke. The Minior tree topper is a nice touch, but implies it is at below half health, which is concerning. The gradient background implies a warmth of spirit unique to the winter holidays. It's March though. No artist in image or file name. I hope their date goes well/10.

Also, when do we resolve to learn a recipie from all the temples in-character?

You’re so tired. Your head is heavy. Everything is heavy. “Sure. Hop in.” You pat the inside of the bed.

Valerie hesitates. But there’s a creek from the boat settling. At least, that’s what you assume. Valerie almost leaps and looks around. “Oh. Nevermind. Thanks.” She crawls into the bed.

She crawls in. There’s a flood of cold from the air rushing under the blankets, then a nice soothing warmth as she crawls in.

“Herb, You’re a gentleman, right?”

“Myeh huh.”

The distinct sensation of silk brushes your skin and reminds you that you’re just wearing boxers. But even that doesn’t matter as much as sleep. Sleep is everything.

There’s another creek, and you feel your arm being pulled over something warm but still shivering. It presses into you and smells like lavender. The feeling of pokemon cuddling by your feet completes the perfect comfy feeling and you drift off to sleep.

You wake up the next morning seeing an incredible display of smooth butt in a silky pink underwear stuffing itself into a pair of tight shorts. You make a tiny squeaking noise at the shock. Not what you expected first thing in the morning.

Valerie turns around.

You make a strong case. Part of me feels that maybe she might just want to avoid the whole situation. Though this could be an opportunity to help her relax around everyone. Kind of one of our 'challenges' we give each other.

the instant she comes out of the cloning machine, time to sleep platonically next to herb in a comfy bed

>>1223960
Normal cloning can't give you the same person the sample is taken from, because they'll have had different experiences. What we need is for Hoopa/Solgaleo/Lunala to grab Herb from the r63 universe. What's the female equivalent to being hung, anyways? As far as recessive disorders go, if Herb had any X-linked recessive disorders they would already be expressed, so no problem there.

The Dutch-tilt seems to imply this is a physical photograph of Lusamine on a pile of photos, but the reticle implies this is being seen through a viewfinder.

I'm confused technically and emotionally/10. Artist signature is legible though, so that's a plus.

could always have a psychic implant r63 versions of Herb's memories into the clone.

that might be how every girl wins HerbBowl, through genetically modified clones with implanted memories. Laki gets one that has a myostatin deficiency and a r63 version, Hana gets one with reinforced bones, Val gets one that has slightly reduced myostatin levels, and Jane and Keira share the real Herb

>>1224065
Not really

>>1224065
I heard all the characters in the last quest ended up mary sue savants, i hope that doesn't happen to Herb :(

>>1224088
The only savant really was Clair. The rest of it was all through hard work and lucky rolls.

>>1224088
They also got varyingly beat to crap and worked for it, though.

It also had a macho man wrestling Ursarings and swinging grunt members by the legs into tables.

>>1224088
nah just Clair

>>1224088
Last quest was on a different scale desu, but even considering that, the fact of the matter is that in pokemon training and self development is pretty much the core of the fucking series. Do you expect someone to get to the fucking league championships and not be really fucking good?

We SHOULD become a master of SOMETHING by the end. You're not a Mary Sue savant if you become the best after busting your ass for 100 threads. If we didn't reach that level I'd honestly feel like we were in a total rut of mediocrity.

The issue is with how that development is paced.

>>1224088
It was "high-level." We were an exceptional group of people, but we faced level-appropriate challenges and were very human in our flaws and insecurities. I probably sounded like I was complaining when I talked about it before, but honestly most of it came from having a cast that was both young and competent, which is a weird combination to me.

Battling Alakazam was fun

>>1224126
what would we have done if we lost, fuck.

Just tell him he has a point and let him direct himself in battle?

Raistlin was great overall. He was a really sympathetic character somehow.

The general isn't always the booksmart scientist or something like that.

I agree, but if he could effectively kick our ass it would prove otherwise.

Gobble is kill

“Good morning.” You force yourself to act naturally.

“Oh. Heh. Good morning.” Valerie does the same. “Did...did you sleep well?” She looks away, pretending she’s not doing it on purpose. You’re only able to read that because you do it a lot, too.

You stretch, and swing yourself out of the bed. You make sure not to look at yourself, or you’ll get too self conscious. But it’s only now that you suddenly feel the springy stiffness in front of you. You hear a gasp as you give in to the urge to look down.

Yup.

You quickly cover up, tuck, and rush your pants on.

“Sorry! I didn’t mean-”

You stop talking because she’s saying the exact same phrase.

“To look!”

“No. That’s fine. I didn’t mind that you saw. I mean-”

“No. I know. I mean, not that you-”

“But that part was an-”

“Accident! I know. You’re a guy and that just-”

“Happens! Exactly. I didn’t mean anything by it. And it’s got nothing to do with you!” Oh crud. “I mean, you’re really pretty and you smell really nice.” don’t be creepy. “Not that I noticed.” That doesn’t make any sense! “But that’s not why-”

“It’s okay! You just wanted to not be shy and be like everyone else on the islands and make getting dressed no big deal. Right? Me too. And we did sleep together, so it’s not like seeing each other in the morning is a big deal.”

You laugh and make a bunch of gestures showing she’s dead on because you don’t want to interrupt her. She starts doing it too and you both act like that those flailing inflatable tube guys except you’re also making weird faces. You’re both just trying so hard to show the other that it’s not weird and it’s making it weirder.

“Breakfast?”

“Yeah. I’m so hungry I could eat a horse-di...A horsea!”

You both head to the kitchen and you volunteer to make breakfast. Everyone says it’s fine, but you can’t help but feel flattered that nobody fights hard at all when you insist. Laki even flicks Valerie’s shoulder when she sounds too much like you should relax.

But to you, cooking is relaxing.

You put on the apron that’s hanging there. You wish you packed on yourself. Now let’s see. What do you and your pokemon need most for training today?

>Something generally healthy. Give everyone that extra staying power
>Something that gives you a lot of energy. More moves, more practice
>Something to help everyone’s mood. Lift spirits
>Some brain food. Make today a day of learning

Speaking of Gobble we need to talk to him about his evolution, I'd be cool with a Snorlax but if he evolves I don't think he can help us out in the kitchen like he does now.

>>1224241
Plus we need to grab those munchkax exclusive moves first.

Is there any way to combine these? Assuming a high roll will be required

>“Yeah. I’m so hungry I could eat a horse-di...A horsea!”
....huh. I'm assuming this was due to her eyes lingering, cause otherwise Pic related

>>1224241
I still say we should keep him as a Munchlax forever, but that didn't seem to be the common opinion.

>>1224251
If Gobble wants to stay small he can, but I'm fine either way.

>>1224251
Personally indifferent. There's pluses and cons to both.

>>1224251
I'm still invested in the idea of the snorlax food critic in a fancy suit, touring the countryside critiquing restaurants.

>>1224241
>>1224251
Honestly I'm on the fence about evolving him. Depends on what Gobble wants to do. He seems to enjoy dancing and is actively experimenting with his culinary skills. Might mean we'll need a battle team and a cooking team.

Wonder if they have an island version of Iron Chef. We'll need a Miltank (for MooMilk), a Shuckle (Berry Juice) and any other food based pokemon to make the most bad as cooking staff.

>>1224251
I'd prefer we not hamper him, and I like Snorlax

>>1224264
But a Munchlax in that same suit would be even cuter, and he'd be compact enough to help in the kitchen, while still being a dancing sumo wrestler.

Snorlax is the only natural thing in my opinion. How else will he be able to eat more if he doesn't have the space?

>>1224283
cuter maybe, but it somehow does not have the same visual appeal.

>>1224344
>>1224345
>>1224349
I love Bisharp too, but the comp fag in me Rees at the thought of having an even bigger fighting weakness and another physical attacker without much defenses or speed. Like I'm sure they could do cool Parry stuff.

>>1224349
My two favorites are Munchlax and Honchkrow. If we can get our Murkrow friend to join up, I will be very happy indeed.

>>1224355
Bisharp actually doesn't need a high speed stat, in competitive, mostly because of Defiant and sucker punch.

>>1224364
I really like Honchkrow too

>>1224355
Thats why he's one of our cooking staff, not as much for our battling. Though i'm ok with him being as a battler. Typing isnt everything

Misdreavus is a solid choice, but I like Froslass more. Bella needs a noble lady to show her how to be laugh haughtily.

You cook up a main dish that’ll give lots of energy for today, so you’ll be able to practice a long time. You also make a smaller side dish that should keep everyone cheery. It’s amazing the power that food has. You tighten your apron and serve it up, to the thanks and applause of the group.

“Oh look! Gobble learned recycle!”

“Oh. Oh gross.” Laki shifts her plate away.

“It’s okay. It’s a natural...oh. Yech.” Keira says, despite herself.

Gobble ignores all criticism and does it again. This time he’s not able to get it back and looks crushed. He wanted to eat it again and again.

“It’s okay, Gobble.” You set down another plate for him. “I got you.”

He lights up, quickly adjusts a little bib made from a napkin, calmly picks up his cutlery, and drops his face onto his plate and eats without using any of that stuff.

Ah. You feel great. You grab another plate, but on your way back to the table, you come face to face with Mr. Scwhibbles.

“Oh. H-hello.”

He stares blankly.

“Are...are you hungry?” You slowly offer the plate.

He silently takes it, then slinks away into the darkness of the ship.

You try not to think about it and get yourself another plate and sit down with everyone else.

Laki avoids talking to you, but utters a “thanks” as she finishes her plate and carries the other plates away.

“So, all of us were going to head into town today.”

Hana nods. Apparently she’s feeling more up to it, despite the issues with her limbs.

“There’s a training center there, if you want to go.”

“It didn’t look very clean.” Valerie says. But she quickly covers her mouth. “I don’t mean-”

“No, it’s not clean.” Keira assures her. “Which is strange, because cleanliness is a large part of our culture. I don’t want to step on any toes, but I think I should check out the temple after all and see what’s going on.”

“Sometimes you have to get dirty to get things done.” Laki says bluntly as she hitches up her bag and walks past, not looking at you. “I’ll get that last part today. I’ll call you and we can meet up.”

“I feel guilty making you go alone.” Hana works up the courage to tell her.

“Don’t.” Laki hops onto the dock. “Stay close to Valerie or someone will kidnap you and sell you for scrap.”

Laki glances back to see if you’re going to say anything.
