ALOLA SCOUTING CATCH-ALL
Who: The Nightrunning Crew!
When: Day 73
Where: ALOLA
What: Scouts doing SCOUTS STUFF and Mercs ALSO DOING SCOUTS STUFF maybe catching pokemon maybe getting clothes WHO KNOWS
WARNINGS: People being Dumb
Alola, the scouts will notice initially, is fairly warm-but fairly diverse all the same. Everyone is equipped with their handy-dandy radio, which is good considering the chances that everyone arrived on separate islands.
Those landing at Poni Island find it largely uninhabited, aside from one lonely property and a dock filled with houseboats. The pokemon here are wild and untamed, and among some of the strongest in the region-and scouts will find massive canyons and equally large trees, that some can even walk on.
Mele-Mele Island on the other hand, while small, has more sizable a population. There's one city, and plenty to do, and the scouts becoming familiar with pokemon will observe that those in the wild here are good for anyone 'starting out'-the labs here as well might supply tourists with pokedexes even just as a temporary measure, so that's handy.
The third of the four islands meanwhile, Ula'Ula, is home to the highest peak in the entire region...as well as a desert. There's a lot more people living here, though scouts venturing far enough north are going to come across the town that Team Skull took over, which might be a good idea to warn others of. It's one thing to dismiss Team Skull as a threat, it's another to just waltz into their home base. There's also a local bus that will take visitors up to the Hokulani Observatory, up on Mt. Hokulani.
Lastly, the most populous of the four islands, Akala Island has hotels, a natural park, an impressive mall...scouts can probably take at least a brief moment to get themselves to blend in more with some local clothing while here, especially while in one of the two cities. Konikoni in particular seems to be selling numerous items relating to pokemon in one way or another, so it's a must-see!
Though really, scouts should probably try to focus on what's relevant to the Carnival, right..?
[[OOC - This is a mingle log; players of scouts can assume they can be anywhere among the islands given how easy it is to travel between them, or just radio out-and beyond that everyone is free to come up with their own ridiculous scouting scenario! Just try not to alola yourself out, we still have the main event after all.]]

You can show him you're strong right~? [she coos to it, scratching the mudbray's ears.] You can carry Lambert!
that icon seems so appropriate for this moment somehow???
I don't think-- [ He doesn't get to say what he doesn't think, though, because Mudbray ... stomps down on the ground, making it shudder, and comes galloping forward towards Lambert with a look of determination.
Thankfully, however, Lambert's got witcher reflexes on his side, and finally has the hang of how the Pokemon moves not. Even if it feels ridiculous doing it, he sidesteps Mudbray as it charges, but reaches out to catch his hands in its mane, swinging himself up (or down, depending on your perspective) onto its back. It'd be a neat little bit of showmanship, really, except he has to quickly bend his legs awkwardly...
At least it definitely doesn't have any trouble carrying him. Him steering it anywhere, however, is another matter... ]
IT REALLY DOES TBH...
But you have to be good now okay? You have to make sure you actually listen, otherwise he won't even want a ride! You can do that right?
[Who's really training this thing?!]
no subject
But it does go back on all fours to sniff at the handful she's offering and start munching it up. Lambert is warier. ]
What are those?
no subject
[Carly does give a cough however, as she bundles it back up again.] They're...not really good if you eat them yourself though...sort of like weird flavored soy beans actually...
[Which is a shame because roasted soybeans are PRETTY AMAZING in her opinion. Absolutely delicious-she should see if they sell them here.] But look~ Now you'll definitely get the hang of him! And now we can go up the mountain!
no subject
But there is the other question at hand -- the matter of getting anywhere! ]
Kind of one problem with that. [ He gestures back from Carly, to himself, to Mudbray's honest lack of any back space. ] We're not exactly going to fit, unless you're volunteering to sit on me.
I figure she looks like a weird pikipek lmfao
[She trails off, eagerly jumping at the less embarrassing of conversation points.] Oh!~ That's easy! After all, [she announces, drawing a swirl of feathers and pixelated light over herself to change form,] Our magic still works here!~
[Granted she looks at least slightly more local a bird, odd markings and black feathers aside, but there they are, hummingbird companion.]
lmfao oh my god ... cute
Just don't get eaten. [ Mudbray seems a little startled that the lady who was feeding it just now has disappeared, but Lambert doesn't let it think about it too long, already nudging it forward towards the road... though not out to the wilderness, but back to town. ]
I don't know about you, but I don't plan on wearing mud all day. [ He's pretty sure he remembers seeing a clothing shop ... somewhere. ]
no subject
The mention of clothes has her blink a few times, before giving an odd sputtering sound.] Oh-!! Right, we should get new clothes shouldn't we...
[Time to...go do that, in that case...]
