Week 5.

[azumods]

WEEK 5 As of morning the next day, it seems the rain has stopped; with Azelf awakened and your newly-hatched companions by your side, it's possible that you're feeling a new sense of resolve regarding what needs to be done - and, perhaps more importantly, your ability to accomplish it. The device Maylene gave you certainly does seem to work; activating it will reveal a dark portal crackling with energy, shades of pink and purple swirling brightly around the outer edges, and those of you that walk through it will find yourselves quite suddenly standing somewhere else - there's grass beneath your feet and an unfamiliar city to the west, and the place you're standing seems raised up in some way; turning around once the portal has closed behind the last of you will reveal a massive bronze statue depicting a Pokémon of some sort, though what it is seems to be a little difficult to tell... The trip to Eterna City may leave you feeling a little dizzy and disoriented, and for a few uncomfortable moments you're likely very, very aware of your organs, but the effects will pass after a few moments and you'll soon feel right as rain. Of course, it'll likely become obvious very quickly that you aren't alone near that statue... Either way, it's a long journey up to Snowpoint City; you might want to take some time to make sure that you're prepared before you set off. It really does seem as though finding Azelf at Lake Valor has done the world some good, though, along with your combined effects on the world already; hopefully the Guardian at Lake Acuity in the north will be just as helpful... CURRENT LOCATION: ETERNA CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week five of Azume; feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget that a write-up is due this weekend!]

[Sena can barely believe that the victory happened, taking until Kiryu recalls Bito to figure out that they won. He pumps his fists.]

Touchdown! [And then he realizes what he just shouted and immediately shrinks back, poking his fingers together.] Aha...ha...

[Monta pants heavily with exertion, clearly winded from the few hits he did take during the match. Still, he lets out an excited squeal at winning...before falling back on his tiny monkey bottom in exhaustion. Sena takes the chance to pick him up, and Monta welcomes the chance.]

Speed...is all I'm really good at, honestly... [They won, but Monta's tuckered out already from such a short battle!] It's a good starting point for us, but I think we need to learn more about other things too, neh?

[Monta squeals. Just 'cause you're only good at being fast doesn't mean he isn't good at other things, too! Rude, Sena.]

[takestheblame]

My opinion is that you do have enough speed to fight back when something unexpected happens, but you can't rely on that all the time. You should have a few plans to fall back on just in case.

[Speed is pretty good when it's about reacting, though! You have that on your favor, Sena, well done!]

[swiftasacoursingkawa]

Um, thanks...maybe building up our endurance would be a good start, neh, Monta?

[The monkey whines. But if he gets stuff done fast, he doesn't have to endure, right?]

Monta.

[Fine.]
