Basil had a self-satisfied smile when the method of evolving his Pokemon was correct. Sure, the Pokedex told him, but actually testing it to see it would work was another thing though he was sure that it would have worked.

What he didn't expect was the sudden random applause by some of the random denizens of the Pokemon Center. His face flushed red and that satisfied smile turned into a sheepish grin. Well, a trainer evolving their Pokemon was an accomplishment and these two were not exactly the kind that were easy to obtain considering it required multiple components though it mainly just be because no one would want to go through the effort.

Basil returned his mons into their respective balls and turned to Anise who gave him praise that he felt was a bit unearned. "Um, thanks, but I just followed what the Pokedex said." He looked down at the Pokeballs on his belts and then said, "Give me a sec." Basil had went over to the PC and a transferred Sabbah into the PC for Lupin. Even if Sabbah was evolved, he still needs to train her enough to catch up to the rest of the team and Lupin needed more experience since he's falling a bit behind.

"Alright, let's go." With that, the hunt for Pinsir has now begun.

And caught! Basil picked up the Pokeball with a smile and attached it to his belt though is Pokedex buzzed with the message that he would have to swap someone else into the PC. At that moment, he decided to place Aria in the PC temporarily so the Shelmet had a place on his team. Looking down at the newly caught Pokemon's ball, he said,"Alright, I'll call you Sabbah."

He turned to Anise and said, "We'll leave shortly. I just have one more thing to do at the Pokemon Center." If she felt like following him or waiting for him, either would be fine. Basil would head to the Pokemon center to heal his Pokemon and then use the PC. For the time being, he placed Lupin inside the the PC and withdrew Lancer.

"Let's get this started. Lancer, Sabbah, Roxanne!" He tossed the balls of two bug pokemon and the rock-type out onto the floor of the Pokemon Center, pouring out in a white stream of light.

"Shel!"

"Karra!"

The two both looked up at Basil, but when the bugs noticed each other they immediately butted heads with one another, literally. They growling at each other, ready to throw down at any moment until their trainer finally stepped in. Basil knelt down and put his hands between them and pushed them away from each other. "Alright that's enough. Can you two just keep it cool for a few minutes?" Lancer and Shabbah glared at each other, but begrudgingly agreed to cease since their trainer is asking them. They'll just kill each other later.

Basil sighed in relief and looked at his Nosepass. "Alright Roxanne, use Thunder Wave on the two of them."
"Pass!" Electricity crackled from her big red nose and sparks flew at the Shelmet and Karrablast. If the entries in the Pokedex were correct, then this electricity should evolve them.

Basil blushed when he realized that he was accidentally holding some suspense over the information. No, no it's not a surprise. My bad. Uh, the Pokemon I'm talking about is Pinsir. I think they're pretty strong though they are pretty hard to find because they live high up in the trees and under the ground. He explained. "No one has actually recorded its location yet so I'm going off on what a bug maniac told me after I bribed him with information to get foreign bug-types. Well, hopefully he got there in time before Zachary's ship sailed off or else he'd make a liar out of me."

And back to the failed catching attempt. So, things can't be caught if they're knocked out.

Bruh.

"Okay, so that was dumb on my part." Okay so we are trying this again! This time we are going to try with Crocus and use vine whip, since it won't be very very effective and sleeping powder to make it easier to catch.

At the very thought of Worldedge City, Basil stiffened from the very thought that he would have to go back to the very place he was trying to escape from though visibly was relieved when Professor Dustan was currently residing in Raremine. He was quite aware of who the professor was due to being a resident of the city as well and that Dustan's reputation quite preceded him as well. Even Basil had a few of his published works in his shelves back home. Actually, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea if someone informed Dustan that Landorus is on the move again since it was inline with the rest of his work. Heading his way was definitely near the top of Basil's priorities.

Before he would answer Anise, he took a look at his Pokedex and used its map feature to take a look at where his next destination would be, the place where he could get some information on the function of the Abundance Fruit. "Well, I'm in this now so I'll probably head to Stillwood Village to find out what these berries are for while you head back home and get your affairs in order, but there are some things to do before that." Basil answered, putting his Pokedex away. I've got very strong intel of how to find a very rare Pokemon deep in the Silent Forest if you want to come with, but I need to shop for the road ahead.

"That and I need to evolve my Karrablast and I may know just how to do it." Basil doubted that he would be back in Highhill soon so he thought it would be best to get his own affairs in order too. Whether or not Anise would stick around he would still do what he planned to do.

First, Basil went to the Pokemart and bought 5 Great Balls, 11 Pokeballs, and 5 Super Potions, which would leave him with 4088 Poke Dollars. He could hear his wallet crying. After that, he would go on his next venture to catch a Shelmet.

Quick Catch! Basil would search for a Shelmet and when he finds one eventually, he would have Cecil take the lead and basically just use Fire Fang and if it maintained a distance then he would just have her use Incinerate.

"So its function is probably related to harvests? The ancestor of berries?" Basil mused while looking at the strange fruit. "I wonder if there is someone who knows more about ancient myth in Rainrock that could give some direction. Maybe Professor Paulie, but he seemed more interested in getting dirt samples." Last night the professor was far more excited to study how the cave could have supported any form of plant life and he probably was now knee deep in his own research after that major discovery.

It could have left anytime? Why would a Pokemon as powerful as Landorus willingly stay within the confines of the shrine? Well, it doesn't matter why. It looked like there was an actual purpose for this whole endeavor though they had failed in doing what she actually needed them to do. Anise was of course going to go after it once she was stronger, but when asked Basil couldn't refuse the request. "Um, yeah of course. I feel partly responsible for this too so I'll do what I can." It was only fair that he finished what he started after all.

There was one thing that he didn't like the sound of, however. What did she mean that the 'other two are getting restless?' Basil wondered. Do they sense something dangerous coming? Pokemon were far attuned the the happenings of nature and perhaps that was even more so the case with legandaries. He thought of asking her, but there was no point in even bothering. At their level, there was nothing they would be able to do even if they had that information and only be on the back of their minds. Right now, they just had to get stronger.

"I think it's time for us to go. Anise probably needs to get her affairs in order and I have things I would like to do as well. Thank you for everything." And with that, Basil and hopefully Anise would leave the gym.

"So what are you going to do now? Are you going to head back to Redcoast right now?" Basil asked when they left the gym.

Questions? Did he have questions? Of course he had questions! Basil looked at her as if she had corn growing out her ears just for even needing to ask that.

"To say I had some would be an understatement." said Basil, slinging his backpack down his arm and grabbed it by the handle. From it, he pulled out the Abundance Berry. "After Landorus recounted the tale of the storm and shrines, he gave us a berry each. I've never a berry quite like this before, but I can make an educated guess that this isn't exactly something normal." Then again, that could be applied to almost any item that a legendary Pokemon gives to anyone, but there was actually something that was bothering him even more than that.

Why go on such a roundabout way of releasing Landorus? Why help me investigate? Basil asked. "You could have sent Anise to release it anytime, but instead you chose to involve a complete stranger. That could've been disastrous if I or anyone else had any ill intentions to do what we wanted with that information." He wasn't wrong. If something similar to Team Amethyst ever got a hold of this information then it would have only ended in disaster.

And this led to perhaps the final, more important question. "So why did you need us to release Landorus?"

And now Felix was back in angry Yamper mode. Or would it be angry Furfrou mode since he is from Kalos. Of course Ferris knew that he shouldn't put gasoline on a fire, but this schtick with Felix after he apologized to the gremlin was starting to get old fast. "I don't see why you need to lash out. All I'm saying is that there is so little planning we can do when we're just at the starting line and honestly, we really don't need to. We have the rare opportunity that no one else in our time has to just walk in any direction where we feel like it and make historical and scientific discoveries. Landmarks and goals will just come naturally as we explore so there really is no point in getting so hung up on the details right now."

In the middle of the discussion, they were interrupted by an elderly man pulling along cart loaded with boxes and other supplies courtesy of the Exploration Office. He then handed their group a black box and then a couple of walkie talkie looking things. For someone even like Ferris this was new to him; a box that could generate revives and a radio/tracker for air-dropping supplies. Something like this would have amazing for his own expeditions around the globe. So this was the power of government funding.

Now with their gifts in tow, the group was back to discussing what they should do. The side-eye that Felix threw at Ferris did not go un-noticed, but he was indifferent to the Yamper's pettiness. It would take more than a mean look to rile him him. However, there was actually a pang of worry when Felix suggested going to the other islands. "It would be better to hold off on going to the smaller islands for now,"said Ferris. He was not trying to be a contrarian to get on Felix's nerves though just him breathing seemed to do that alone and he certainly wasn't doing this out of fear of his own safety. "As I see it, it's too risky to cross to the smaller islands as we are even with a supply drop. I'd be fine if it were just me, but we have two very inexperienced trainers and I'm worried that they'll hurt themselves when we would be even more isolated.

"We should explore more of the mainland first. The Northern Coast is a good starting point so let's go with that. If we're lucky we could start setting up a base-camp today." It wasn't that Ferris lacked any faith in Arlo and Botan. Okay, maybe a little, but it was mainly out of concern for their well being and their growth as trainers. It was one thing to start their journey in a developed region, but it was entirely different matter when it was an uncharted island. Any mistake they made on the island was magnified.

Lewis Carroll

Riverside Workshop, Southern Moor

@ManyThings


As an author Caster, Lewis did the one thing that he knew he could do; he wrote. What he spent the entire doing was enchanting the objects that Master had requested from him and when that job was complete, he went to fortify his Workshop. Well, it could hardly be called a Workshop and more like a Study. It was hardly that impressive in comparison to what the other Caster class servants could produce, but he wasn't a magus, not one in life at least. Unlike him, Master was outside using the magecraft that she honed throughout her life. It was sort of messed up how he could just be summoned with these abilities that many magi could only dream about when he could not perform a lick a of magic in his life.

Not like he was complaining though. The sun has set and that meant war had just begun. Anyone could show up at their doorstep, but they would have a hell of a surprise to meet.

Through the mental connection that he and his master had, he heard her speak to her in her ever polite manner. Thank you for your praise I shall be there in a moment. He faded into golden shimmer of light from his study and apparated in front of her in only a moment after she requested his presence.

It seemed like she was starting to be a bit more open about what she is aiming for, but of course, it wasn't going to be just about her. Just as he inquired about her goals for the war, it was bound to happen that she was going to ask what his own motives are. Not that he could blame her; she needed to know if his wish for the Grail did not interfere with her own.

"I don't know. What does a dead man wish for?" Caster mused over such a question. "World peace? Personal happiness?"

Wait... he won? He actually won.

Basil just stood there, processing the fact that the battle just won by just a thread, no pun intended. If Cecil was knocked out, he doubted that the rest of his party would've been able to clutch out a win. It was just by luck that they managed to pull a victory out of that. Still, his Pokemon fought hard and deserved all the praise.

Cecil was returned to her ball while Lorette walked over to him. "It wasn't just me. I only won because of my Pokemon. They're the ones who made it possible." There was no way he could take all the credit in good conscience; his Pokemon worked so hard for that win with so very little training. Heck, it was pretty unfair of him to put them in a battle like this when he only became a trainer yesterday. Still, it was something to be proud of to win a gym battle so early in his career as a trainer, but then again, he wasn't just some dumb little Joey running in guns blazing with his Ratata.

He held his hand out and received the Shrine Badge followed by the TM for U-Turn. Now that he had the badge in his hands, it was starting to feel real. He really was a trainer after all. "And I won't stop until I reach the top." Basil said determinedly, perhaps a bit too serious considering he was on his knees yesterday pleading to a legendary Pokemon to not erase his existence.

But there were more pressing matters to attend to. "I have a lot I want to ask, but it can wait for a moment. Do you have a healing kiosk I could borrow?" It wouldn't be surprising if she did have one being a gym leader and all. One would expect the league to at least provide the tools necessary to keep their gym leaders at tip-top shape. If she did have one, they could probably walk and talk, but if not then he'd have to go to the Pokemon Center.

Well it looked like Ferris had returned to Isla's good graces with being able to track Pokemon though he did not expect her to quite literally swoon at the prospect of studying Pokemon even closer.

Anyway!

Felix finally spoke more than ten words. Well, he wasn't wrong that they should look for a landmark though he was skipping a few steps. "It's not that I don't understand your sentiment, but if we're gonna find a landmark then we actually need to look around for one. We don't exactly have a complete map to help us pick a spot." Actually, Felix needed to slow his roll there. How in the world could he expect anyone to think of an actual plan when they had very little to work with? They just got on the island.

Ferris cocked his brow and said, "A goal? It's a bit early to get bogged down in the details don't you think? Focus on only goals and you'll miss out on the rest of the world." While he appreciated the spirit, it wasn't exactly in the right place.

"Besides, we already have a goal; explore the island and record our findings. So let's just go with Botan's idea and head off in whatever direction the other groups don't go in. The rest comes later." It was as simple as that. When they find something of note then they could start making actual plans.

"Botan and Arlo need a masterclass on catching Pokemon anyway. I could use some more myself since I didn't bring my actual team."
