Another Gym rotation goes by, and the famous Talia Tide, heiress of the biggest waterfront in town, Halydra Holdings, became Gym Leader

But!

She's busy

In her place The Gentleman, her personal assistant takes care of the Gym

The Gentleman asks you to do something before it begins

"Prove your bond to your pokémon"

The Gentleman is quick but gentle, and watches you expectantly as you choose your answer

What do you do?

And RP battling him

​

Tonight was supposed to be simple.

Halcyon’s yearly waterfront light show.

Music near the canals.

Food stalls.

Crowds gathering along the water.

For the first hour, everything goes normally.

Then,

the lights go out.

Not just near the waterfront.

Across huge sections of the city.

For a few seconds, Halcyon goes completely dark.

And during that darkness…

a lot of people swear they saw something moving near the canals.

Emergency backup power has partially restored some areas, but the waterfront remains closed while workers investigate

.

🌙 Where was your character when the blackout happened?

​

The flower shops are packed today.

Lines out the door.

Last-minute bouquets.

Kids dragging parents around.

Pokémon carrying flowers that are definitely too big for them.

Even people who forgot what day it was are starting to realize.

Mother’s Day in Halcyon tends to slow the city down a little.

Are you spending the day with someone, or trying not to think about it?

The week comes and goes... and the gym stays in the hands of the Nightshade Agency... this time their boss! Nyx Nightshade brings her Dark types into action!

To test your quick wits and to challenge you before the battle she asks you a question, or rather... a riddle?

"I start as an egg, small and round, Hatching into a creature that's always unbound. I'm full of energy, with sparks and lightning, A powerful force, always striking.

Who am I?"

Answer... and RP battling your Gym Leader if you dare!

It’s a small thing at first.

Someone recognizes you.

Not by name.

Just:

“Hey… you’re the one with that Pokémon, right?”

You hear it again later.

Different place. Different person.

Halcyon’s not that big.

People start to remember.

🌙 What do people recognize you for?

Hello trainers

The local Zoo is opening up a Safari Zone, a place where trainers can find new pokémon!

The zone is separated in 6 different areas

There's a Cave area where you can find Rock/Ground/Steel

A Ruins area (Psychic, Ghost, Dark)

A Mountain area (Flying, Dragon, Ice)

Meadow (Grass, Fairy, Bug)

Beach Area (Water, fighting, normal)

And a Refinery area (Fire, Poison, Electric)

Let me know where you search, and choose one of the 3 options to catch!

​

Someone put up a small board near the center of town.

Not official.

Just a few handwritten notes.

“Looking for help finding a lost pokémon.”

“Need a second set of eyes, i think a ghost type is inside my house”

“Job Needed: Relics & Rarities are hiring”

Nothing urgent.

Just small things people don’t want to deal with by themselves.

🌙 Leave a request—or respond to someone else’s.

Another week, Another Gym Leader

The Intern from Nightshade Agency, Blaze Hutchins takes hold of the Gym Leader title for the week.

The challenge for being able to face him... he calls it "Who's that Pokémon?"

Three Images... Three Pokémon (slides 2-4)

Get it right, and RP fighting the leader

Good luck

---------------------

Ooc:

Some people have asked about movesets

We are keeping pokémon only having their Learnsets for now (With the exception that pokémon with only one move on their learnset can learn one Egg Move)

TMs will be available in the future

There’s a shop on one of the older streets that finally opened its doors again.

Most people thought it had been closed for years.

---

The sign is still there, faded but readable:

"Relics & Rarities"

---

Inside, it doesn’t look like a normal store.

Nothing is labeled.

Nothing is displayed the same way twice.

Some items sit behind glass.

Others are just… left out.

A stone that feels warm to the touch.

A shard that hums faintly when you hold it.

Something wrapped carefully in cloth, like it shouldn’t be exposed for long.

---

The owner doesn’t explain much.

They just watch what you pick up.

---

“Some things only matter to the right person.”

---

You’re allowed to choose one item.

Tell us what you find, and what makes you pick it.

You may find Evolution Items, Link Cables, Held Items and all sorts of Relics inside the Shop
