a delightful picnic day.
Who: Everyone!
What: PokeBalls are now functional, and there are a lot more friends in Tabula Rasa.
Where: Outside of Heavenly Blanc! It's a picnic, baby.
When: You know, now-ish.
Content Warnings: Cute. Dragons. Birbs.
It seemingly happens at random, for the trainers of the creatures they call Pokemon. Sudden bursts of light, and out emerge quite a few new friends. Pokemon of different Types, shapes, and sizes are now wandering around . . . sticking close to their trainers, probably.
There's a small gathering outside of the Heavenly Blanc, with various snacks and food set out on tables outside. Feel free to come by, play with Pokemon, and have a bite to eat! It's a random assortment of food and drink, all "foraged" and/or made by the Pokemon crew in order to celebrate their partners being released and to also introduce them to their friends they've made in Tabula Rasa!
Be careful of the rumbling storm nearby, though . . . but on the bright side, at least your phones seem to be working, if you have any? Time to take selfies with your new friends, or maybe a TikTok that just stays on your phone forever.
(Trainers will have top levels, if they want, so if you want to interact with a specific trainer, you can wait for their level! Otherwise, have fun at the picnic.)

Hah! Please, my dragon is way cooler.
Hey, Gyarados!
[Blue waves a hand as he calls out to one of the slithering shadows that's been passing over the picnic all the while. No, it's not Leviathan- well not quite, anyway- but the huge water serpent seems to move itself very carefully as it winds closer and settles nearby their picnic table, peering at Zack with huge eyes.]
[It certainly wasn't a friendly looking face if you didn't know any better, but the way Blue jumps up from his seat and fearlessly hugs over the dragon's face, you'd think he had a deathwish.]
That Flygon of Raihan's might be quick, but he wouldn't stand a chance against my Gyarados! Don't get scared, fighter-boy.
no subject
[Zack stands, looking surprised and amazed at this giant angry-looking water-dragon creature looming over the both of them. It reminds him exactly of some of the statues he's seen over in Wutai- Leviathan! Yeah!]
You just hug that thing? It really doesn't try to eat you for lunch?
[Honestly he finds himself grinning, coming over with a curious wave. He won't touch but he wants to.]
no subject
He'd never- right, Gyarados!? [Blue grins, petting the side of a fin sticking out from the serpent's face. It rumbles in reply, vibrating the air around them- seemingly in agreement? It sure seems pretty chill around Blue, and eyes Zack more with curiosity than anything. Maybe it comes off more as wariness, though.]
I raised him since he was just a lil Magikarp! You ever seen any of those bitey orange fish that live in the lake? That's... basically what he looked like, before he evolved.
[Well, judging from how angry those fish are, Gyarados was a perfect next step, right...]
Haha, don't make any mistake though, [Blue gives Gyarados one last pat before turning back to Zack, hands on his hips as he gestures to his Pokémon.] Gyarados here could fire a Hyper Beam that'd blow a whole city to smithereens if he wanted to. So, yanno... be nice to me.
[Blue winks- ...that was supposed to be joke. Really! Probably.]
no subject
[If they grow up to be these massive things maybe he really should just let that phone go. It's not coming back. Plus the possibility that the fish could grow up into that- he doesn't want a 'hyper beam' straight to the face.]
Damn, owning that much power in a pet. ... That's awesome.
[Okay, he's convinced. Gyarados is pretty neat. But Zack is guessing by that stare and Blue's harmless (?) comment that he shouldn't touch! He's got it!]
no subject
[--Then he remembers how he and Lance had tried to forcefeed some of the fish when hunger first became a problem, because they didn't seem to be capable of deciphering what was edible and not.....]
[He releases whatever argument he had with a puff of a sigh, and changes gears.] Your phone? Oh, jeez. I hope it's okay. [The fish, not Zack's phone] I guess it's just as well, since phones haven't been working that great until recently, right?
Anyway, if you ask me, it keeps the balance of nature in check! Pokémon are tied closely with aspects of nature, and people respect them as partners.... From what I hear from other people here, it's not exactly the same elsewhere.
[Hmmmm, sounds familiar, doesn't it?]
