>Eh we can skip a day.

"Gee is that a leaf on the forest floor or your panties Mallow?" Said a voice from behind them. Mallow jumps as Stars is there. Lucario is at the ready at his side and...Altaria is preening herself. Cotton is a bitch to maintain apparently. "Excellent battle brah. Not everyone can take on a Trial Captain when she's going all out. And Mallow...I can run and get you a water bottle if you like." Mallow's face is beet red and she clings to Amon. Pressing her chest tight on your arm. "BACK OFF STARS! I WON'T LET YOU CORRUPT THIS TRAINER!" Stars gives a deep laugh. "Corrupt! I'm not the one clinging to him for dear life. Ay! That said, I heard from an acquaintance you won at Battle Royale! Nice work!" Stars says sincerely.

>Your response?

>>6101517
"Thanks kinda had to get creative at the end while on fumes but I think I did well so far."

>>6101517
"Hard won battle yeah. only because my buddy evolved.

Though i have to say if all Trial Captains are this strong and stronger getting to properly challenge you one day is gonna be an uphill battle."

"Challenge me? Wishful thinking at this stage...but I like that!" Stars says. He puts on some sunglasses. "You've done plenty of training today so get some rest..." Suddenly Stars freezes up. Staring at something. Lucario immediately jumps in front Stars and starts roaring loudly. Altaria gets up from preening and gets into a battle pose. You and Mallow look behind you and see...something...is that a Pokemon? "Oh look Stars! Its Tapu Lele!" Mallow says teasingly. "She came to say hi!" Stars face turns white and he gets on Altaria. And they fly off without another word. Lucario roars and wants to stay and fight. "Lucario, return!" Stars says putting him back in his Pokeball before they fly off. "Heh. Tapu Lele terrifies Stars. Its because Tapu Lele was the one who punished him after he lit the Alola Grand Hotel on fire." Mallow says. You pull out your Pokedex. "Tapu Lele, the Land Spirit Pokemon, Fairy and Psychic type. It heals the wounds of people and Pokémon by sprinkling them with its sparkling scales. This guardian deity is worshiped on Akala. It said to has an unpredictable and mischievous nature and can cause harm instead of aid at times." Its staring at you. Like directly at you. Not Mallow. You. "Wow...She must see something special in you." Mallow whispers in your ear. "The Guardian Deities rarely acknowledge tourists."

>>6102504
"Ehm.... Hi. Not sure if you can understand me. But nice to meet you."
*be nervous but try to not show it. This one seems dangerous if it wants to be.*

>>6102506
She flies close to you. Examining you. Her eyes flash a bit. She makes a low sort of chirp. Then turns into a ball of light and flies off. "Wow! I think she likes you!" Mallow says. "No one is ever gonna believe this!" Mallow says. "Oh uh...Dinner...right...What did you uh...want again?" Mallow walks back to town with you.

>>6102509
"Something with local berries sounds nice. And..... Fish. Yeah Fish with some spicy berry sounds good. Do you know how to fish?"

>>6102537
i mean in some of the early pokemon anime seasons you can see fish in an Aquarium. But Slowpoke Tail is supposed to be a delicacy. so sure. lathered in honey?

you can probably eat goldeen, Cloister and other pokemon. Guess where they are getting their steaks and milk from.

>>6102537
This has always been a bit of a funny plot hole. If it can be ethically sourced from pokemon it usually is and with tons of attention drawn to it. Otherwise it’s either a joke, a plot point, or simply kept ambiguous, though supposedly some Pokédex entries refer to eating pokemon and to non-pokemon wildlife existing. I vaguely remember Slowpoke Tail used to be considered cruel, but recently it’s been retconned to grow back quickly enough to basically be harmless because it ended up being so iconic. I say go with whatever’s easiest.

>>6102659
I would assume they would eat old slowpokes that died of natural causes or flayed pokemon like magikarp for dinner as pokemon are common enough not to cause guilt over harvesting the herbivores.

>>6102794
>>6102659
>>6102541
>>6102537
According to game canon you CAN harvest tails. They grow back. Just gonna do that. Tomorrow morning.

>>6102794
Apparently Slowpoke Tails just… fall off sometimes? So it’s creating this weird catch 22 for the cops where Slowpoke Tails aren’t illegal but cutting them off is. Imagine just having a goddamn Slowpoke ranch where you just let them live their lives waiting for their tails to fall off…

And supposedly Magikarp taste awful, just to round out how useless they are. Farfetch’d on the other hand are so delicious they were nearly hunted to extinction!

>>6102929
It was more they were being poached I think. I remember that in Gold and Silver.

>>6102934
Yeah, poaching them for their tails is illegal but any fallen tails you find happen to find while out foraging are fair game.

"Something with local berries sound good...and I have always wanted to try Slowpoke tail." Mallow smiles. "I can handle that." She takes you to the restaurant while its still closed. She heads to the kitchen. "Wanna watch? Not everyone gets to see a gourmet kitchen you know." She asks.

>>6103287
"Sure. I wanted to learn to cook anyway. never got the chance. and with bigger pokemon i cant be relying on berries alone for the future."

>>6103287
"Yup, I need to learn how to cook to make good food for me and my pokemon."

>>6103455
>>6103303

She takes you back and shows you some basic stuff. But a lot of it flies over your head. She notices and asks. "You look confused. You ever been in a kitchen before?" She asks a joke.

You've never been in a kitchen before. You find the entire experience interesting to look at. Mallow moves sharp knives of various shapes and sizes with a practiced ease. The room is nothing but counters, drawers, and a huge fridge. There is a walk in freezer and the whole place smells like herbs and smoke. You see her making a simple stew with the ingredients and she seems to not mind the heat at all. "I hear in Paldea there is a Pokemon that can make its own chili sauce. I'd love to try it out. Have you ever wanted to visit another region? Besides Alola of course!" She asks as she chops up some berries.

Rolled 82 (1d100)

"Never. didnt really have the money to travel much or far."

Help out by offering to hand her utensils or spices she wants while observing how she sears and prepares the meat. Check if maybe she has some berries for your pokemon to have a bit of a snack before food to stoke their appetite.

"Oh! No thanks, but I can show you the spices and how they work with the flavors in the stew." She proceeds to overload your brain with funfacts and tips and tricks about various spices and herbs and seasonings. You learn more in an hour then some people do in a lifetime. After a long and enthusiastic explanation about the usages and history of Basil she finds the stew is done. "Oh wow, I hadn't even gotten to Cumin yet." Mallow says. "Anyways I made enough for two and some for you to take home." Mallow pours some reddish brown broth with loads of chopped berries and onions inside and bits of tail meat. "We have a few hours before they come for dinner rush." She takes the bowls with a practiced ease to a table. "I hope water is okay." She sets it up. "So tell me how it is?" She seems genuinely enthusiastic to see how you like the food. Its rather spicy but also sweet and savory. You begin to sweat a bit from the spice.

The amount of spices is probably a bit much at first for our boy Amon. Coughing slightly at the first bite with eyes watering he nods that its good.

She's...Really into you! Your experience with women is limited but it appears rejecting her like that activated some "I can fix him" impulse. She's leaning in and her eyes are on you.

"Oh! I know where it is! I'll come over sometime around 10 if that's ok?" She asks. You agree and head back to the Hotel with some leftover soup. When you get back you send out your Pokemon and they seem really amazed with Darmanitan. Darmanitan for his part happily flexes his arms. And nearly breaks the coffee table. "Hey! Be careful! Your big now." You say. You order some room service for your Pokemon and stare out the balcony for a while.

After watching a "Brycen-man" movie and your Pokemon settling in you get a knock on your door. Its Mallow. Its decently late. "Oh hey I...um...I brought you some food." She holds up a bag. Mallow seems awkward. And nervous. She steps in. "Oh yeah my Pokemon are asleep so I guess I'll just..." Then she presses against you...and...

"No it's not a sandwich. I was trying to think whether it was or not." She says in a rather spacy way. She sounds like a hippie when she talks but it's almost cute. She shows you a mash of blonde and blue. "It's the beach. The sand and the waves." She says. "So did you find the trial captain you were looking for? They often are around.

"In Alola its not legal to fly around with your Pokemon without a special license. We aren't sure why...but on occasion the Island Deities get really mad if they see someone they don't recognize flying around. So the Kahunas worked on this system that special Ride Pokemon are approved. There are whole facilities and taxi services that are nationalized by the goverment....I read that in a brochure once. Interesting stuff. Of course if your really strong or you have the approval of the deities I guess you don't really need a license...even if its illegal.
