"Hey, want to meditate?" You ask, calling over to Gareth.

"Sure, we could use a break anyway." Gareth agrees, recalling his Feebas, before releasing his Riolu as you release Nika and Blitz to join you.

You briefly instruct Blitz to sit and meditate with you before you both settle down and focus.

The aura comes easily and you can sense Queenie perk up nearly immediately as Blitz settles in.

"Don't try and heal yourself, if that's what you're thinking." Gareth advises. "You could just as easily make things worse."

"Alright, I'll just go get some burn salve later." You reply.

"That a much more sensible idea." Gareth agrees, before you're silent as you both focus on the aura and guide your respective pokemon with sensing it.

Queenie meanwhile, takes to flying around while you meditate, apparently energised by yours and Gareth's aura and ready to go again.

After about an hour, Gareth's watch chimes and you both stand and stretch.

"...Do you feel any different?" Gareth asks with a frown.

"A little less sore, but that's about it." You admit.

"Hm." Gareth says, stroking his chin, before shaking his head. "No, you weren't actively trying anything." He says. "Your body knows what it should be, so just meditating might be speeding up your recovery."

"Well that's handy." You admit.

"It is, but you're probably going to feel really tired in about an hour." Gareth warns.

It's only mid-afternoon.

"Well, I guess I'd better make the most of things now." You reply simply.

You step out and head to the break room and locate a first aid kit. A short dig through later and you've located some burn salve and with Gareth's help, changed your dressing to a more thorough one with the addition of more salve. Sure enough, the burn already looks less severe than it did before lunch.

"What now?" Gareth asks as you pack up.

"I'm going to keep training with Queenie." You reply.

"Yeah, I'm going to get to know Wattrel some." Gareth replies, before you head to opposite sides of the arena so as not to get in each others' way.

You decide to focus on Queenie's Special Attack and set up a few targets for her before having her use Fairy Wind on them.

She hits them pretty consistently hard, but towards the end of the hour, you start seeing a marked increase in just how hard from the force gauges built into them, as you start to feel that meditation session catch up with you as Gareth predicted.

It's all you can really do to congratulate Queenie and give her a treat before you all but collapse, only avoiding a face plant thanks to Gareth hurrying over and helping you stumble up to Fie's apartment for a break.

"See why I advised against meddling with healing just yet?" Gareth asks as he helps you into a seat before going to make a drink as Queenie settles on your head.

You release Blitz and after getting him to settle down, you convince him to hop up on your lap as Gareth hands you a cup of tea.

You're barely halfway through it and some smalltalk about your childhood when you actually nod off.

You wake up what feels like seconds later to see Cinder peering down at you curiously at a close enough range to be startling and if it weren't for Blitz keeping you pinned, you might very well have fallen out of the chair.

"You're in her spot." Fie calls helpfully. "Mind helping with dinner?" She asks.

You're still tired, but you recall Blitz and lurch to your feet, before going to help Fie with dinner.

It's nothing complicated - meat and three veg - but that just means there's less to screw up.

It doesn't take long for everything to cook and shortly, you're eating and feeling marginally less tired.

When you're done, you wash up, before sitting down to another cup of tea courtesy of Gareth.

"I think I'm going to skip morning practice tomorrow." You admit to Fie. "I think I need to sleep in at least for one day."

"Good." She says. "You've earned it. Plus, it's no good sparring when you've got an injured arm."

"How did the appointment go?" You ask, shifting your attention to Holly.

"Hm? Oh, it went okay. The doctor says I'm going to need orthopedic shoes, but it's nice to know for sure now. Fie and I are going to go get some tomorrow."

"Cool." You say, nodding, pleased that Holly's woes insofar as travelling are concerned are now well in hand.

I still have to do more discipline training with him, teach him how to act safely and do some physical training before i consider the evolution.
Also he's technically still a puppy, don't feel like rushing it.

>>5736330
>>After I've beaten your or Emma
I concur with the other anon, giving him a jump in capability without discipline is a recipe for trouble down the road. I feel like winning a battle against opponents of either of their caliber should let us see how much the discipline training is sinking in.

"After I've beaten you or Emma." You reply. "Blitz is getting better, but he needs more discipline before I'll be comfortable evolving him to an Arcanine." You reply.

"Good move." Gareth says with a grimace.

"Plus, he's still technically a pup. I don't want to rush him." You add.

"Anyone would think you'd spent all that time in school just studying pokemon." Fie says, shaking her head ruefully. "Have you been cramming, or what's the story?" She asks.

Also my parents kept travel journals where they detailed what they learned and how they cared for pokemon.
I just used the local library and sources on the net to fact check and note them down.
My mom is mostly skilled with ghost and bug types, dad with grass and fire types and both are good with poison types.
My moms Seviper is particularly nasty, saw it chase more than one troublemaker out of town and my dads Arcanine knows like 40 different moves and is probably better trained than canines used by special forces.

"Well, it's kept the number of rookie mistakes from you down to a minimum, so you won't catch me complaining." Fie says.

You start petting Fluffy while you watch TV.

Things are fine to start with, or so you think, until about five minutes later, he's bitten you.

It's more of a warning nip, quick and fairly gentle, with no lasting harm, but it gets the point across as you look at him, startled as he huffs and readjusts his position.

"He's still sore." Gareth notes helpfully. "It's probably a testament to how well you two get along he put up with you petting him for as long as he did." He adds, before the power cuts.

"Fuck's sake..." Fie grumbles as Cinder's wrists flare, casting a flickering glow through the room.

"...What was that?" Holly asks, spooked.

"It's a sucker's bet." You confirm.

"Er... a Rotom?" Gareth asks, non-plussed.

"Ghost type. They like to play stupid pranks." Fie replies. "Generally involving possessing technology."

"This is kind of weak compared to what they can get up to." You add. "You know Rottom if you wanted to prank us you could have done better than just messing with the light switches and TV." You add louder.

>>5741151

"It must have an owner." You observe.

"Yeah, which begs the question if this was deliberate or not." Fie replies. "There're defenses built into the Gym to keep Ghosts out and stopping Psychics from reaching in, but that's not quite enough to declare malice just yet." She adds. "Could you go look around, see if you can find any loiterers nearby?"

With an air of pragmatism, you release Blitz.

"Guard that Rotom." You say. "If it tries anything, Bite it."

Blitz barks, before sitting down a short distance from the out cold ghost and watching it intently.

"I can do that." You confirm tiredly.

"Fuses are probably the safer bet. Then, even if there is a break in, there'll be evidence." You note.

Fie nods, before leading you deeper into the gym, past the break room and down towards the basement.

On the way, you release Sage to help keep an eye out.

When you get down the stares, Sage stiffens, before throwing up a Protect in time to intercept a ball of gunk.

You don't recognise it, so you answer and hand up.

"Let's go to the security room first. Get an idea of if this is all there is to it or just the start."

"Fair." Fie concedes. "This way."

You head out of the basement, recalling a tired Queenie and Latias owing to the fact she apparently struggled with the door in the first place and follow Fie through the corridors to the security office, Sage and Cinder bringing up the rear.

The security system has just finished booting when you enter and Fie wastes no time in cycling the cameras.

As it so happens, there were a bunch of masked figures in black bloc trying to break in but the lights coming back on apparently sent them scurrying like roaches.

There are, however, plenty more ghosts that got in while the gym's wards were powered down.

Fie's gym layout is a series of fire hazards. Literally - There's the campsite you usually hang around, a kitchen and an open fireplace in a living room, before her main arena.

Before you go in though, you take a moment to swap Rusty, Nika and Queenie out for Rascal, Syurm and Ayumi so you're not quite so limited in who to send in.

This taken care of, you head into the campsite and are almost immediately reduced to a coughing fit as poison smoke billows out courtesy of the koffing that is somehow in there.

"Rascal, blow the smoke away!" You order between coughs, releasing him and fumbling for Sage's ball.

The smoke clears and you gasp for breath as you release her as Rascal hovers overhead, before being hit by a Smog that serves more to annoy him than not.

"Sage, Psybeam!" You order, releasing her into the room.

She hits Koffing and knocks it clean out, slamming it into the opposite wall.

You catch it, lacking any better way to carry it, before moving on into the next room.

...Where Sage almost immediately jumps into your arms as a Shuppet hits her with Astonish.

"Protect!" You order and she throws up a barrier to catch the follow up Shadow Ball. "Rascal, Aerial Ace!" You order.

He bowls you over as he swoops at the Shuppet and rips into it with his talons, knocking it out cold.

You catch it like Koffing after Sage disentangles herself from you while you recall Rascal, before moving onto the next room...

I'm glad you update at all.
This is a long running quest afterall.
Maybe use this "dungeon format" after Alex gets deputised for arrest encounters.

You open the door, there's a blur of movement through the mocked-up kitchen and the cabbage smell of gas fills your nose as the blur resolves into a Purrloin, holding your belt, complete with most of your team.

It's a good thing you've still got Sage at least-

-Then the little bastard bolts right past you and back through towards the foyer.

You're way too tired for this shit.

You fumble for your pokedex as you scramble back after the Purrloin and thumb Fie's number.

++"Yeah?"++ Fie asks.

"Purrloin." You pant out. "Stole my belt and my team."

++Doors are locked, you've just got to corner it."++ Fie assures.

"Right."

"Sage, Light Screen! Block the door!" You order as Purrloin gets close to the door to the foyer - why didn't you close them after you?

In response, a barrier springs into existence pulling Purrloin up short and giving you the opportunity you need to retrieve your belt, inadvertantly yanking Purrloin around and hurling it back towards Sage in the process.

Seizing the advantage, you kick the door closed, leaving Purrloin's sole way out as past Sage as it rights itself.

It looks around, clearly looking for another opportunity to either escape or strike and coming up empty for the moment.

"Sage, come back." You say, recalling her before releasing Syurm behind the Purrloin, leaving it frustrated again with no opening to exploit.

It recoils as it spots her behind it, backing towards you now.

We can catch it too if any other anons want to, but I'm not sure what we can do with a Purrloin.

>>5760096

To clarify: 'catching' in this context has more to do with the fact you've got to round up and carry the wild pokemon up somehow.

Fie'll reimburse you later on this.

Unless you really want a Shuppet, Koffing and Purrloin.

>>5760076
>Sticky Web

Make sure to lure the cat into the webs path by distracting it and then siginal Syrum to web it.

>>5760110
Purloin is cool with me.
Prankster Dark type.
If it's a girl we can see about having her learn Attract so we can chase down some stray Litten.

Besudes i think Alex can do with some carving practice since he does have a crafting kit.
Hope we get an Aprijuicer too (stack gains from it with pokeblocks on both Alex and oyr pokemon).

"String Shot!" You order.

Purrloin actually looks visibly frustrated now as whatever it was trying to do is foiled and this frustration turns to a pout as it's swiftly entombed in string.

It's struggling though, trying to cut its way out.

>>5761679

You do have a Murkrow.

>>5761683
Thought we passed her on to dad as a nightguard.

>>5761689

It was floated, but I don't believe it was ever finalised.

It's been a while though, I'll admit.

>>5761673
>Take it to Fie with the others.
Again I'm not against catching it, but I don't see what we could do with a Purrloin. Could make a good house pet I think, or could be nice for our siblings to have.

>>5761722
Yeah I don't really remember us specifically sending her to James as a nightguard.
If someone could link the thread were this was discussed and/or done it would be appreciated.

>>5761839

You're way too tired for this.

You throw a poke ball at Purrloin before it can escape and are rewarded when the ball clicks and vanishes.

There's only one room left to check in the course.

Going through the mocked up kitchen you come out into Fie's Gym arena...

Where you find a Gengar waiting for you.

Whether it's wild like the other pokemon and just took advantage of the break in the gym's defenses or someone's pokemon here for a more sinister purpose, you can't tell, but you're pretty sure this is the last one.

It better fucking be. It looks like a pretty formidable pokemon.

Also, you want to go to bed.

You throw out a poke ball - both because why not and also, to buy you some extra time while you release Rascal.

The ball rocks once...

Twice...

Then bursts open as the Gengar grins widely across at you.

At least you got Rascal in there safely.
