Send me a 🎶 and I’ll shuffle my playlist and use a line from the next song as a starter.
“I’ve been left out alone like a damn criminal.”
“Eh?” Juliette looked at him, incredulous look on her face, “What do you mean by that? I know we barely know each other but it's not like I'm painted here or anything!”
“And at the risk of sounding corny and overrated, don't you have your Pokémon too?”
guess which starter i got (and fell in love with)
Journal 3
It's been a while since I've written anything, preparing for the Festival took a lot of my time and it paid off, because I won my battle! Though what happened is another story I might not be able to share anytime soon. Regardless, Nileas performed fantastically, I am very proud of him, and watching the other's battles was very informative.
I've been spending most of my time after that researching about the trials, the locals don't seem to be up to saying much of it.. but I did overhear some trainers talking about it in the cafe. It sounds simple enough from what I heard... but we shall see.
Of course, I haven't just been researching! I've also added two new members to my team. Kibe the Magnemite, found him in Hau'oli City, near the trainer school. And he's such a natural at battling. I also caught a Wingull, which I've named Luan.
I believe I've covered the more important pieces for now.

there are days where you just can’t write properly. you have the muse and motivation, but the words won’t come out the way you want them to, and that’s OKAY. it happens with every writer, every roleplayer. you do not have to feel bad for having off writing days. if you don’t want to work on replies but work on your blog, it’s fine. don’t worry about it. everyone gets these days, and it’s okay.
I am still alive! I have a few journal entries in, and I’ve made progress on my game (Just finished the Water trial after some time grinding for levels). Need to wait until we wrap up some details about the Festival battle before posting them though!
Caught in the Act (closed w/ Juliette)
whimsy-and-wanderings:
“Oh goodness no!” Mayu laughed sheepishly, picking up her frazzled Rowlet. “I was just sparring. I don’t actually have any Pokeballs… or a Pokedex… or really any knowledge on how to catch a Pokémon whatsoever.”
She blushed slightly, embarrassed to admit her own cluelessness in front of a trainer, so she quickly changed the subject.
“Your Popplio is so cute! Nileas you said? This little bean is named Pallas. She’s technically my companion, but I’ve kind of been battling in secret. I guess you’re in on it now.” She chuckled.
“Ah! Practicing for the Festival then?” Juliette smiled at the other, so this is what one of her opponents would look like, it might be easy enough to win it! Not like winning the Festival gained you a special advantage, or anything, she just liked to win.
She blinked and snapped back to attention as the girl continued, completely ignoring her attempts at changing the subject, Juliette chimed in, “Didn’t Professor Kukui give you one? PokeBalls are fairly cheap in the Center, and if anything I can teach you how to catch them. It’s really not hard.”
“But, you’re correct, Nileas is my starter, we’ve only been working together for a few days. He’s pretty smart.” Crouching down slightly, to be at eye level with the Rowlet, the brunette wiggled her fingers in front of the Pokemon, “Hello~ He is a cutie, I considered picking a Rowlet myself, but it just didn’t feel right for some reason, if that makes any sense.”
“If you don’t mind me asking though..” she continued as she straightened up, “Why are you battling in secret? And don’t worry, it’s not like I know anyone to tell your secret, so it is one hundred percent safe with me~”

And… caught!
“Ah-hah, I was curious about your Pokemon there,” Juliette pointed, phone still in hand, “It reminds me of a Houndoom? At least I believe it was Houndoom, but it looks different and was hoping to snap a picture to ask around about it later. Awfully rude of me, so sorry, I should have asked first.”
Kai looked over at Mani, “What? Mani? I don’t think he would mind!”
He pulled Mani off his shoulder so the stranger could get a better look at him, “And yeah, he’s a Houndour… well, part Houndour! He’s a hybrid!” Like me. He added internally.
Kai laughed, and shifted Mani into one arm, in order to rub the back of his neck, sheepishly, “I was told he’s also part Persian though! Never med his parents to know for sure!”
“Mrewr!” Mani proudly mewed!
“Ah! Houndour, yes, that was it. Never seen one before, in person that is..”
Juliette’s heart melted as it mewed, “Awww, such a cute little guy.” She fished a few pokebean out of her bag, holding it up, “May I give him one?” At the sound of treats being handed out, her Popplio waddled closer and barked up at her until she dropped one for him to catch.

(( @venturedbibliophile liked for a starter!))
It was already late at night when Mayu left her house, Pallas in tow. She snuck through the grass and out her backyard to the pathways that tangled around Iki Town. The more tall grass and bushes she could find, the more likely she was going to find a Pokemon. So far, Pallas had bested a Ratatta, a Yungoos, and a Pikipek. And tonight, she was going for 4-0!
Mayu’s trek was stopped by the cry of another Pikipek, scratching its talons into the soft dirt.
“Okay, Pallas, you ready?”
The Rowlet ruffled its feathers, focused and ready.
“Okay! Use leafag– Aah!”
Right as Rowlet began the charge, another girl walked by, causing the pair of them to startle. The Pikipek squawked and flew off to a nearby branch.
“Oh my goodness! S-sorry!” Mayu stepped in front of Pallas, trying pointlessly to cover up anything she was previously doing. “I hope I didn’t interrupt your walk or anything.”
Juliette had been out and about until late, with Nileas at her side, the newly formed pair had been battling the wild Pokemon all day. Once her supplies were starting to run low, the rookie trainer decided it was about time to head back to their hotel and rest.
It was on her way back to the city that she bumped into the other. The girl’s scream startled them both, with the Popplio’s erratic barking filling up the night air, “Oh, Arceus! You scared us!! Shh, it’s okay Nileas, it’s okay, hush.”
The brunette shook her head, once the shock had passed and her Pokemon relaxed, “No, no, sorry for walking into your battle.” She bowed in apology, “I hope you weren’t planning on catching that one, so sorry for scaring it away.”
venturedbibliophile :
“Congratulations! And.. Ah, yes, right. Tapu Koko, the island’s guardian… No disrespect intended, I completely blanked out on everything I had read about the island.” Juliette returned the smile, “I have already received my starter! A Popplio, I just don’t have him out and about..”
She trailed off as she watched him interact with the Litten, letting out a soft laugh, “That’s adorable… I’m just a bit concerned about my starter getting into too much trouble, since we’ve just met and all, not sure I could keep him out of trouble. I am very new to this whole trainer thing, wouldn’t want to start on the wrong foot…”
“But before I continue talking your ear off,” she extended her hand out at him with a grin, “Nice to meet you fellow trial goer, I’m Juliette from Kalos.”
“And I’m Ian Yasuda. I’m from Malie City, on Ula’ula Island.” He takes her hand and shakes it. “Don’t worry about it. I’m used to dealing with young Pokémon. And I’m sure Atsume would like to meet him,” he added, taking the cat into his arms as soon as he looked like he was about to pounce. “He’ll get bored with only your amulet to play with.”
Juliette nodded, small laugh escaping her at the sight of the feline trying to go for her amulet once more, she wiggled her fingers in front of the Pokemon before digging into her bag for Nileas’ Pokeball. Releasing the Popplio with a click of the button, the seal shook his head and blinked curiously a few times before barking up at his trainer.
“This is Nileas, by the way.” The brunette announced with a smile, “Very endearing Pokemon Alola offers to their new trainers... You’re used to young Pokemon you mentioned, is Atsume not your first then?”
Reblog this if you wait patiently for replies and respect the other mun enough to understand that muses can become selective at times in replying to certain threads, as well as ooc life becoming far too busy at times.
@venturedbibliophile started following you!
“Uh… hey there. Somethin’ I can help you with?”
And... caught!
“Ah-hah, I was curious about your Pokemon there,” Juliette pointed, phone still in hand, “It reminds me of a Houndoom? At least I believe it was Houndoom, but it looks different and was hoping to snap a picture to ask around about it later. Awfully rude of me, so sorry, I should have asked first.”
♠♠!
Her decision of starting her pokemon debut in Alola, came from both the desire to head into it with a sense of exploration by going to a place she had never been there before, and because she thought Alola’s Trials were easier versions of the Kalos League challenge.
She has a soft spot for Grass type Pokemon, even though she ended up feeling a pull towards Popplio. She won't say it out loud, but she is feeling a form of regret over not picking Rowlet, but she felt she had to respect Alola's customs and Popplio did pick her.
♠?
She's a smart girl, that loves to read and learn new things. But she has the bad habit of devouring books too fast, too often and thus has trouble retaining vital information at times.
♠
She didn't have many friends growing up, a single child and both parents working, most of her people interactions were with her babysitters and teachers. Juliette didn't mind it much, as she enjoyed the quiet time and is grateful for her parent's sacrifices to provide for her.
Listen to the official audio of the new Porter Robinson & Madeon song "Shelter." Out now! North American back to back tour this fall For tour info visit www....
Maybe I had said something that was wrong Can I make it better with the lights turned on .... Oh, it's a long way forward, trust in me
Okay! I believe I replied to what I had to reply to, if I missed you.. feel free to poke me! The muse had run away from me for a while, and part of me is trudging very slowly because I’m worried about potential spoilers. I’ll look into finding some starter memes tomorrow, or hit me up if you’d like to do a thing with Juliette. :3
(Bill) So you're new to the islands, too? Seems like there's a lot of new faces popping up, eheh. I saw your journal - good luck at the festival! Battles and the like are pretty easy to pick up the basics on (whether you're participating or not, hah), so it sounds like you'll do just fine.
Oh yes, I am painfully new. I’m sure I have the word “tourist” plastered all over my face. I am planning to participate, hoping I’ll be able to pick it up as easy as I seemed to have picked up battling wild pokemon..
