[Video 08]

[dangerousidol]

[Here's an irritated looking idol on the network. She's bundled up in a white parka with matching pants, a pink scarf, and some earmuffs that look like Cleffa's. Rise is pouting at the screen.]

So much for my summer at the beach! First it's way too hot, then it wouldn't stop storming, and now snow? This isn't funny! All I wanted was a easy trip to Olivine, but no, I've been stuck here in Ecruteak the whole time!

[She turns her gear around to show an Empoleon, Oshawott, Meowstic, and a Sylveon playing in the snow. All but the Empoleon were wearing some kind of winter gear made for Pokémon.]

At least these guys are having fun... Does anyone know how to make hot chocolate that's safe for Pokémon? I think they'd like that after they're done playing.




[ooc: if you're in the Ectruteak area, feel free to interact with her that way.]

[Well look at that, she actually did it. Rise managed to turn her adorable little baby penguin into a horrifying giant robot. Good...good for her. Thankfully, Teddie isn't here to complain about that. ...He'll just complain about something else instead.]

Woah woah woah, what's all this about a beach, huh?

You're keeping warm, right, Rise?

[ Serah does look pretty concerned. ]

I'm not sure about hot chocolate, but maybe one of the stores would have some sort of mix.

[capitald]

Do you happen to have a Pokémon with Sunny Day on hand? While I doubt it'll do much to remove the snow, it may at least provide some temporary relief.

[The Ninetales in the background gives an affirmative yip. Fire type moves in general are useful in these situations!]

[Chihiro had gotten accustomed to the fact that the weather was probably just going to be bad for the remainder of the month, but...snow was not something he'd been expecting, for sure. And while it is tempting to just stay indoors, when he sees Rise's video appear on the Network he decides to head outside to meet her. While he didn't actually pack much that was well suited for the cold, he's wrapped up in one of his Leavanny's own hand-knitted scarves. While it is...not very easy on the eyes, it's warm, at least.

He walks side-by-side with his hands buried in his Arcanine's fur which seems to be keeping him warm in the frigid air in spite of his typing. Wherever he steps in the snow he leaves a massive and slightly melted paw print in his wake. His Linoone trots just behind them, diving headfirst into small snow drifts every now and then before burrowing out and finding another one to jump into.]

There you are, Rise-san. Have you been out here all morning?

It's pretty odd how unpredictable the weather's being.

[ Heck, even for this place, it's concerning. There's a sigh and a ruffle of his hair as he thinks it over. Some of his pokemon haven't taken too well to the cold. While some of them are happy to play in the snow like Rise's are, some of them have taken to huddling around his Rapidash and (in the case of his Cubone), Yukio himself. ]

As for your question about hot chocolate... I don't really have any idea but... my brother might know a thing or two.

Hey, least it ain't ever boring, right? Can't say I expected a blizzard in the middle of summer, though.

[invigorating]

Huh? Hot chocolate's not safe for Pokémon?

[Nowi's definitely not dressed for the weather given that she's wearing a purple tank top and bright pink shorts, but she seems way more concerned with... well, that.]

Oh no, I gave Mana some earlier, is she gonna be okay!?

[paishodown]

I don't know, maybe there's some kind of chocolate equivalent that's good for Pokémon? I know back home, chocolate is usually bad for animals, so I wouldn't take any chances with the normal kind.

Have you asked a Pokémart?

[esthetically]

I think something is wrong with the climate of this place. I'd suspect the moon but it didn't make much sense, given it looks normal on most nights.

I... think regular hot chocolate is actually safe for pokemon, though, but they seem to enjoy it if it's made with Miltank milk. I've been giving my pokemon some with that and they seem to be enjoying it.

Man, this summer just has it in for beach parties.

Nobody's having a good time.

[Text] Late as heck but oh well

[doesntdomuch]

Hot chocolate would be bad for Pokemon?

Sorry you couldn't make it to your beach trip. I'm in town too. If there's anything you want to do help with dealing with this weather I'll try to accommodate.

It really is strange...

As for hot chocolate, I imagine that it depends on the type of Pokemon. They don't always react like the animals I'm familiar with. Maybe you could go to the store and ask for recommendations from the clerk? They would know their own stock best after all.
