Hello! I am the new fire starter from... Pokemon Wuthering Waves? I think that's what it was called, at least.
My name is Pombomb! Pombombs are universally considered to be one of the friendliest creatures back home. The humans said that if it weren’t for our habit of accidentally setting anything and everything on fire, we would make quite good pets!

We usually appear in the outskirts of a Harbour-Shaded Town Habitat! I look forward to befriending my fellow Pokemon here in this world, to which I belong.

HELLO
HI
'ZUP

We are Dodrio.
We love to race
We're the fastest around here!

We like wide open spaces-
- with lots of flat ground to run!
Like those old roads humans used to build!

They are all broken down now...

A Dodrio that loves to race other fast Pokémon. They often bicker about who of the three got the fastest time.

Record: H-hi! I'm Blizzard, a Decidueye. Though, my blue coloration seems to be rather one of a kind. That forest looks rather appealing. I love living out in nature, so could I take up residence there? As for myself, I've just been trying to get back to writing this story of mine. I'm not procrastinating, I swear

Build:
I found this rather pretty field full of flowers on my way here. Perhaps we could add it to this place? I'm pretty sure people love flowers, so maybe it could help draw in some new folks

So, um... I have this friend(s) named Binacle. I think they'll probably show up to eat all the seaweed if you just leave it there. They LOVE eating seaweed!
Ah, yes, binacle! They certainly do love seaweed. If you're able to encourage a few to join our seaside habitat, then perhaps...

image.png

Hmmmm. Well, there's certainly less seaweed! Perhaps there's a pokémon or two who could encourage a few of them to move along? I fear for the structural integrity of that lighthouse if more come to visit.

I can think of a couple of pokémon who might be able to do the job!

Hello! I am a humble Electrode. I like rolling around at the speed of sound. And tricking humans into picking me up, but they haven't done that in a while.

My preferred environment? I love hanging around in those big metal places humans used to make things. You know, where they had the things that weren't Pokemon or humans working for hours on end. Do you think they might know where the humans went? Maybe if we built one, they would know?

Ah, a human factory! Most intriguing. They certainly are industrious creatures, aren't they? I believe we might have a space out here in the wasteland for this sort of building. Let's see...

image.png

Excellent. Perhaps the remains of human industry will bring our friends out of hiding once more!

Key_Pal_Pad_Sprite.png

But what's this? Fascinating! A human artifact! I believe this is referred to as a "book," a place for humans to store their words! I wonder what it's doing here?

I'm afraid I can't read human words myself, but perhaps someone with more knowledge than myself could find some useful information here?

Modern life can be so crowded! Remember to leave yourself some wide-open spaces and give yourself room to roam. Who knows what you might encounter on the wide-open plains?

Hello, there! What a fine little house you've built, there. Something about the materials, that architectural style... It calls to me. What a strange feeling!

Why don't we place it just by the seaside here? Mind the binacle, now!

Perfect. Oh, and--what's this? A new pokémon!

Such gorgeous flowers! Thank you! I'm sure pokémon will come flocking to such a lovely field. Perhaps if I plop it down here, just next to this rock...

Lovely. And yes, here we are! Another pokémon for our pokédex!

Build:

(...like these mountains! And they're super easy to access, too, what with that long stretch of open road leading up to them... perfect for a good run, in the absence of all those big metal things humans used to love that were kinda revavroom but also not.)

Charming little devil if I do say so myself! Look at that majestic plumage! And that perfectly curved beak! As for something about me, I suppose I have heard this before:

Pokedex said:
Seen as a symbol of bad luck, it's generally disliked. Yet it gives presents—objects that sparkle or shine—to Trainers it's close to.

Even if I resent the implication that I'm somehow bad luck. I like books like that one you found there. And shinies. And shiny books! We Murkrow are adaptable types, so I'm fine with settling in in just about anyplace with the things I like as long as it's got enough space for a 'krow to spread his wings.

Build: Call it a hunch, but I feel that this place will get popular with Pokémon looking for books like that one you found... Oh! You know what this place really needs? A library! It's a place to collect lots and lots of books like the one you found there. (Dibs in advance on the foil-stamped ones!) We just need a humble place to serve as one. Though being a Pokémon that's a bit partial to heights... maybe we could make it just a little taller than normal?

Should be a simple addition, right? ^v^

Hello, little one! What's this? A road? How interesting! That could be just the thing for easier access to our terrifying broody horror mansion!

There we are. Plenty of room to roam. And look! It looks as though we already have someone excited to visit our nightmare mountain house!

Ah, a library! Of course! That's just the sort of place to attract humans. We already have one tower; why not make it two?

Oh, but what's this? It seems our library hasn't attracted a human, but instead another pokémon!

Ah, perfect! A cool, quiet place for pokémon to relax. Why not next to our factory and also our field of gorgeous flowers? Life is a study in contrasts!

Hmm? Did you see--did that shadow just move? Oh, look at that! It's another pokémon!

I'm afraid our time together grows short. We've made wonderful progress on our island already, but I sense there are eight pokémon in the area we haven't built homes for yet! Do you think we can find more of them?

A library is a fine place to sharpen one's mind, but you know what this place is missing? A place to get fit and build some GLORIOUS MUSCLES. Exercise is important 💪

(I'm drawing a blank on how to attract some Pokémon mentioned without repeating already used spaces so let's try something wildly different)

Excuse me while I hairball! Looks too muscular for my normal type self...

Gah!

I was mosying around the beach and found the best place possible for sandcastles.

Sand as far as the eye can see!

Though could someone send me some water... please!
