Spring Fling

For those who fear the encroaching flowers herald events of a slightly more urgent nature, perhaps it isn't really paranoia so much as sensibility.

Two days after they first appear, every single flower in Union blooms overnight. The sight is incredible - the entire city is blanketed in rainbow waves of color, and the scent of the flowers themselves is quite fragrant. The strange pink blossoms are particularly attractive.

For many of the residents of Union, however, the flowers may not be the first thing on their minds as things go a bit chaotic.

1. Enlightened with a Bug, Fairy, or Grass typing will become subject to extreme emotion swings. Primarily, the emotions will be positive, like overwhelming ecstasy, a sensation of giddiness, and a desire to spread cheer amongst their friends. These Enlightened may also suffer from confusion, an excessive amount of energy, and general loopiness. When not in sunlight, they'll swing towards the negative end of the emotional spectrum.

2. Bug, Grass, and Fairy type Pokémon have taken it upon themselves to settle into this new paradise, with the Bug types descending in swarms from above, and the Grass and Fairy types wandering in through the gates whenever the guards aren't looking. Though not violent, they'll be generally insensitive to the trouble they cause for the humans and will react negatively to anyone or anything harming the flowers.

3. Other strange Pokémon have also wandered into Union and while most appreciate the gentle sunlight, a few of the more mischievous have decided that the city could use some more variety. Each individual Castform may alter the weather between sun, rain, and hail within a certain area of the city ranging about two blocks. If Castform is creating Rain or Hail, Fairy, Bug, and Grass Enlightened will respond in a negative manner.

4. Allergies will be more fun to deal with than ever.

5. Finally, the following event Pokémon will be temporarily available to be bonded with as an extra bonus for this week. Please respond in the Map and Wild Pokemon post as per the usual to claim these. The level range is 5-8.

Castform
Petilil
Cherubi
Combee
Venonat
Flabébé
Jigglypuff

This event will end on April 13th. You may use this post as an IC mingle or make your own entries as you wish. If your character is a Fairy/Bug/Grass Enlightened and you prefer not to play the effects, you may opt-out.

Hey Yang!

[Jason's out and about. Yang somehow sticks out among all the flowers and a lot of people from Union seem to be curious about it. He's not alone either. Bolt the Pikachu scampers over and sniffs at the tiny Pichu. What's up cuz?]

Something bothering you about the plants? I don't think I've seen Peter in a better mood.

[He gestures over his shoulder where, a few feet away, a Spinarak is rolling around happily in the blooms. Not harming the flowers mind you...but enjoying them to an almost obscene degree. Jason shrugs.]

Jaaaaace!

[Yang flips around, to wave quickly at Jason. She nods and grins -- though the look on her face is a bit... distracted -- before she motions around for a moment.]

Seems kinda weird how they all showed up, with the new Pokémon. I mean, probably not anything to worry about, nope! But it seems a little weird.

[Aura sniffs at Bolt for a moment, tilting her head. Then she giggles, which causes a few sparks and crackles of visible static electricity to shoot off her.]

[He nods, eyeing the flowers. He should know that flowers can be dangerous given the various grass types out there, but it's hard to bring himself to worry about such a thing as too many flowers. It just seems silly.]

It is weird. But is there really much we can do about it? I think we should just enjoy them. Besides, more pokemon to bond with.

[Bolt sits back and smiles, his ear twitching. Ah, they're so cute when they're young. Bolt causes some sparks to shoot from his own cheeks, a way of communicating most likely. Jason watches and looks back up to Yang.]

Did you get her recently?
ember_celica: (Confident)

[personal profile] ember_celica 2014-04-12 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
Mm-hmm. No harm, no foul, right?

[She nods, even if she's not sure of that. But at worst... they have to punch a Grass-type Pokemon in the face. It wouldn't be the first time. She looks up at Jace, tilting her head -- and then she grins.]

Yeah! Someone bred her for me, actually. She's pretty cute, huh? She'll grow up to be awesome and tough, I bet.

Of course.

[Jason is ready to punch Grass-types in the face if he needs to.]

She is and with you as a trainer I don't doubt the tough part. We'll have to test it some day.
ember_celica: (Happy)

Mm-hmm! [She reaches down and pats Aura on the top of the head, before stands back up and looks at Jason. She gives him a friendly nudge to the shoulder, with her knuckles. Not quite a playful punch, but maybe its next door neighbor.]

How've you been, Jace? Keeping busy?

Keeping busy with Ranger duties mostly. I should probably try to build my team up a little...Oh! Piper's evolved actually. She's a Fletchinder now. Surprised me when it happened because she set my curtains on fire.

[And without a water type that had been fun to put out. Bolt groans at the memory of it himself.]

Piiika.

It wasn't that bad, Bolt.
