A Croconaw emerged from Sharpedo Bluff a few moments later, saying, "Look, thank you for coming, but Turf needs her rest, and--oh. You guys." Surf hesitated, her claws still digging into the lip of a satchel that bobbled with berries and other healing supplies. "You guys are feeling better...

"That is what I meant," said Maple, forming another ball of light. "Life from no life. In a sense, are you not that different from Arceus and his curious origins? ...Well. I suppose there is a difference, in terms of the substance you came from." This ball of light was becoming a lot brighter...

"Were you not also spawned from nothing?" Maple asked, tilting her head. "A happenstance of the stars. Be it by chance or by design, I do not think we differ very much. Though, I do not know how much of us is of energy, and how much of matter. I certainly would not consider you to be someone of...

"Arceus," Maple said, "is a creature with a unique ability across all worlds. They are a species that appears spontaneously, often as nothing but a puff of thought. There are many worlds that behave like this, but Arceus is unique in that it is a conscious thing that appears instead. I have...

Owen made a few tentative punches forward, even though his body type was not at all equipped for such attacks. Still, his muscles didn't ache like before, and that meant he was ready for action! Or at least training for the next fight. "I heard that Kecleon Market is opening up," Owen said...

"Good morning," Maple replied. This had become somewhat of a routine. While Maple was quiet about why she knew that his kind needed light, and while she only said that it was a gift from Arceus when pressed on why she had such powers, it seemed clear that Maple was more keen on assisting where...

Everything before has been logged. Also, logging having written ~4000 words since the round began.

Hey all, the next time skip has happened! Went on a little longer than intended, but we are now in Day 8 ~ the beginning of autumn. The next time skip is planned to be on September 5 and will be for another week or so. Until then, I actually have a few scenes that I'd be interested in having...

The days passed in a tired haze. Maple and the others weren't kidding about how much that battle had taken out from them, and even Diyem was surprised at the fatigue that had wracked their systems. For several days, the last of the adrenaline finally wearing off, most of the team could barely...

"I have my doubts that the territorial Pokemon were behind this," Maple said. "They still have their territories. In fact, without the chaotic atmosphere of the Dungeons, they're actually much friendlier." She turned to Potluck, nodding. "It's time for us to go. We have some scouting reports to...

"We don't know," Maple said. "We're still surprised that you were able to damage the Magikarp where we could not. But... right now, where you fit is trying ti fight anything that we cannot. And until then, you should rest." Potluck trotted toward Maple and sat beside her, towering over the...

"Mm." This was much easier than some of the others. Hopefully she wouldn't fall for any tricks once she was actually summoned, because he feared that she may be as trusting as Owen. "Very well. Good luck." And without any further warning, a bolt of dark lightning struck Angela, and nothing was...

"The same one Turf has," Maple said. "There does not seem to be anything physically wrong with them. Their aura is strange... that is all we can tell. Otherwise, they appear to be in some kind of discomfort, and worse, conventional cures and medicines have no effect." She shook her head. "But it...

Maple smirked to accompany Cabot's smile, though she was back to serious when Cynthian spoke up. "I don't know," she said. "Everything points to Dark Matter making some kind of return, yet Arceus claims he cannot sense his presence. Yet, there is obviously something happening... Not to mention...

"When you return, it would be as if no time had passed at all," Diyem said simply, like he'd said so many times before. "There will not be any risk. It's likely you won't even remember this until your hero's aura fades. And no, before you ask, I know little about it myself. Only its properties...

Diyem held his breath, ready to sigh, and instead disguised it as an exhale through his nostrils that emitted wisps of smoke. "A world of Pokemon was under attack by a giant Magikarp. They took care of that problem, and are now investigating the source. That leads to your second question: I am...

"Tch. He dies alone after all he's done. Foreshadowing so blatant that I had overlooked it. Very clever." Diyem turned the final page of the comic and set it aside, looking up at the new disturbance. There was fashionably late, and then there was... "Hello." The Charizard stood up, looking the...

Maple hummed. "Mostly," she said. "Dungeons are curious twists in space. You can tell a Dungeon is present by the prismatic wall that lines its perimeter. Touching this wall for a few seconds, or submerging yourself completely within it, causes you to disappear from an outside observer's...

'Light Matter.' Maple's mouth curled into an amused, wry smile, though it was only for a twitch. "There is," she said, "in a sense, a 'Light Matter.' He is known as the Voice of Life, closely tied to Xerneas. Hypothetically, he could be as powerful as Dark Matter... but rather than centralize...

Maple nodded gravely. "It appears that several worlds have their own Dark Matter, one way or another," she said. It seemed that they were catching on. "Dark Matter should have been destroyed," Maple said. "He was responsible for the creation of Mystery Dungeons across the world. The increase...
