"Phew, guess that wasn't what I thought," Indigo coughed, thoroughly embarrassed at his overreaction. Hero chuckled, wriggling his body around in mirth. "Whatever, Hero, you were totally ready to fight too," Indigo replied dryly. Not long after, they finished their swim and Indigo came up to the shore. Hawka promptly went to peck at his toes. "Ow, woah, hey, calm down!" She quieted when Indigo fluffed the crest at the top of her head and Hero said a few reassuring squeaks of his own.
They still had the whole day ahead of them, and Dan seemed to be doing his own thing. "Alright, well, what do you guys want to do?" He asked the pokemon. Hawka squawked and took her favorite battle stance with Hero jumping by her side and also posing. They looked ridiculous. "Okay... So I guess you guys want to train. Well, whatever... I guess I can supervise." And so the pokemon eagerly went back into Breezy Forest. For they wanted to teach that bully Rattata a lesson! But they couldn't do it without some much needed hard work.
Hawka and Hero battled against each other, Hawka familiarizing herself with the terrain better and Hero practicing his Tackles. They gained experience for the next hour or so. Indigo watched them, feeling quite... Inadequate. His pokemon had the constant drive to work hard but he didn't. And it was a guilty, nagging feeling for sure. Well I'm training with them, aren't I? He tried to convince himself. Yet all of a sudden, his thoughts were interrupted by a pokemon Indigo hadn't seen before!

@Balthazar007 roger that~ edit: gonna leave the second pearl for Dan to find instead of having it in my post. I'd feel bad taking all the items in the area lmao.
ahhh okay, that makes sense! so do we ping you everytime we want to find an item or do we just go ahead and make ourselves able to find items that are in the area descriptions? which do you prefer? and are there 'hidden items' like there are pokemon?
OOOH ALSO do you remember those berry pots from gen 4?? are those available in this rp?? It's okay if they're not but i really liked those items so I just thought I'd ask!
edit: one more question... is there a path from Muzin Beach to Quiet Road? or will they have go back through breezy forest to get to Quiet Road? all in all, I'm fine either way but I just wanted to ask.
also: edited my post slightly. had indigo find one more pearl after 30 minutes of searching with his other pokemon. I can easily change it back if you want me to~

"Gotta go check that out," Indy murmured, wading further to the glint. With some effort, he was able to locate it clearly. The opalescent, round orb finally met the palm of his hand. "Woah... A pearl?! I could get a ton of money for this!" Of course, that wasn't the case at all, but the idea of it was enough to energize him for the rest of the day. "Hawka! Hero!" He called, but his pokemon didn't wade in as far as he had. Hawka, understandably, wasn't a fan of water and the new sand cloak Burmy didn't want to have his hard work washed away. They did crow with delight seeing the new item in Indy's hand. It was so shiny! "You like it, guys? Let's try and find some more." After about 30 minutes of careful searching from him and his pokemon, they weren't able to find anymore but hey, they had gotten one, right?
Feeling great, Indigo decided to reward himself after putting the pearl away in his pack. "The weather's great and I've been working hard since I got up so..." The water had felt warm and it was crystal clear. There was definitely a ton of fun to be had. So he tossed on his pair of swimming trunks and dove in with a splash.
Hero joined him, even though his cloak kept getting washed off, the Burmy had never ventured this far to the beach and he was finding it was well worth coming into the water. Hawka pouted, feeling left out, cheeping and chirping from the shore and running around in frenzied circles.
This isn't so bad... Indigo thought, but wild pokemon were everywhere and their idea of fun was challenging humans.
He had seen the Luvdisc around, but this time a different pokemon came out from the water to challenge Hero and him!

@Balthazar007
@Balthazar007Idk if we are allowed to find items on our own?? Interested to see what Indy can find! XP
Morning came with a bright call. Or rather, afternoon as Indigo found himself waking up a little before noon. Stretching out and yawning, he rummaged for some toothpaste and got up to go to a nearby rest station. Muzin was still close to the city, and as such there were public restrooms with running water.
After having a breakfast of protein bars, he contemplated putting the tent up just so he could have a few more hours of sleep but that just seemed like too much effort. And...
Hawka was still irritated with him. She seemed softened by the arrival of the new Burmy Indigo had christened as Hero, more of a sarcastic quip than anything else, but the Pokemon had seemed to enjoy it. Indy could only hope that the gross looking creature wouldn't stick around for too long. Already the Burmy seemed to be better after a good night's rest and food, and Indy hoped to perhaps even release him on the way back.
And finally, the other chore to tackle on the agenda was Hawka. Indy had still not realized why Hawka was still upset. But he scooped her up and looked directly into her eyes. "Hey, whatever it is.. I'm sorry. I should have apologized sooner. Okay?" He held his breath in anticipation.
Hawka chirped, giving Indigo a warning nibble with her beak. It would have to do. Hero came hopping over, his once leafy cloak now a thick covering of sand. Indigo blinked. "Huh... You changed." Had Dan's changed as well?
He decided to wade around the water. Weren't there things like pearls and star pieces on beaches? Surely they were prizes to be sold. He saw a glint in the water. What was it...

Done! Will respond with a quick post pushing to the next day forward c:
Had Dan not been carrying his Turtwig for mostly the entire day, he would have probably had more energy than Indy. As it stood though, Indy hadn't spent the whole day carrying a heavy Turtwig, and the whole getting food stolen and nearly getting attacked had set off an adrenaline rush for Indigo. "I'm sorry, I promise, I've checked the GPS. We'll get there in under an hour. Trust me, we can't afford to get our food stolen here."
By the good graces the of the GPS and thankfully no further wild encounters, the duo was able to make it to Muzin Beach. The loamy ground of the forest transitioned into beach sand, and they set up for camp using their backpacks. They were able to find and abundance of fruit trees, feeding themselves and their pokemon with the nutritious flora they found.
Indigo unfurled his sleeping bag. Since the weather was clear and the night sky didn't show any clouds, the two had decided they didn't feel the need for a tent either.
As they lay, about to go to bed, he decided to speak up. "Hey, earlier, you were acting a little... Off. Is everything okay? Wanna let me know what's going on?"

"Hey, that's-- that's not yours!" Indy protested as the Rattata jeered at them. He leaped back in surprise as from out of nowhere, another Burmy attacked. "Ack, not another one!" But the Burmy appeared to be on their side. Huh, I didn't expect that... What's it doing? Trying to help? Indeed the Burmy stared at the Rattata unflinchingly.
Indigo didn't think it was worth the trouble to fight. Sure, the Rattata was annoying but he had more protein bars and Muzin beach was just an hour away and he wanted to camp there to avoid incidences like these. "Well, whatever, we gotta get going. Let's just-" But the Burmy once again went for the Rattata, intent on serving justice! He knew these types, picking on weaker pokemon and even weaker humans!
What the-? "Hey! You don't have to do that!" Indigo was taking issue with the whole scene. The Burmy was clearly weaker than the Rattata, and there was no need to battle on their behalf. Cripes, what if it gets hurt because of me? He didn't like the idea of that. Unfortunately, the Burmy was a little too headstrong and a little too idealistic because it charged towards the Rattata again, who swiped it back with a vengeance! "Ah! Hawka! We've got to help!"
Hawka gave a loud cry, jumping in front of the Rattata, not because she was following orders per se, but because she, too, didn't like the idea of the thief getting any kind of upper hand on them. However, without being able to use her Ember, she couldn't land a good hit on her opponent alone. Thoroughly confident, the pokemon headed straight for Indigo! He covered his head with his arms instinctively, bracing for the impact, but it never came. With a loud squeaky shrill, he jumped in front of Indigo, shielding him from the Rattata, sustaining considerable damage in the process but managing to keep the weaker human from harm. "W-Woah..." Indigo murmured, not quite able to register what had just happened. The Rattata took off, seemingly giggling, but the Burmy remained, valiant as ever. Why did it do that? It doesn't even know me... I can't just leave it there. Ugh, well... I can catch it for now, then just keep it until it gets better. Hmm, yeah, I mean it kinda sucks but I can't just leave it there.
Indigo crouched down, plucking a pokeball off his belt while Hawka came over to investigate too. She and the Burmy seemed to be in discussion, though about what, Indigo wasn't sure. "Well, you look a little hurt. Why don't you stick around for awhile? Even if you are really weird..." With a sigh, Indigo tapped the pokeball against the pokeball and it vanished in a jagged flash of red.
At the end of this, Indigo had lost two protein bars and gotten a pokemon he didn't even want in return. "Guess we both have Burmy now..." He said, feeling less than enthused. Why couldn't the Burmy have just chilled out? It had all been so unnecessary. "Well, Muzin Beach, right? We're almost there." He glanced at Hawka. "Pretty crazy stuff back there, huh-" But Hawka pouted once more, refusing to acknowledge Indigo.
And his Torchic was still mad at him. Great.
