We're going to be unleashing the plot board on you all on Monday. Jolty and Matt-kun will be the main mods for that, since Mori-kun is about to go on vacation, and then is moving after that. However, Mori shall be kicking around the boards for a while yet, and fielding PMs, and writing up Gym Leader Profiles and the like, so have no fear.
Sundav disappeared from Delmara mysteriously last year. The legendary Ho-oh was kidnapped by a (possibly) human, named Dominus. Dominus seems to be working with a fallen legendary named Drakai, and so far has managed to lock Sundav in a cage, imprison her legendary powers in a crystal, and he's started to turn pokemon around Delmara evil. Fun stuff. The wishing well apparently had a swamp at the bottom of it for a while. Brave trainers went in, fought far too many pokemon, faced an evil gyarados -- and all they got was a crummy book. Perhaps the prize will be better when Sundav finds the location of something else Drakai and Dominus don't want to lose.

Temerity the shiny Teddiursa glanced back at his trainer. Worry filled the small green bear's eyes as she plunged one foot after the other into the snow. She sat down finally, "Temerity, it's super cold out here. We have to get to the next town before sundown or we'll freeze."
Temerity looked up at the sky, it was only 11 o' clock. He was sure they'd both be fine. < It's ok, hey, come on. My father always said, put one paw in front of the other and you'll eventually end up somewhere.>
"I don't have paws." Cody moaned, wishing now more than ever that she had brought some pants. Snow had got up her skirt.

Over the snow crust a blue ball was rolling along quite happily. It was even humming a little tune as it got nearer to the pokemon and trainer. It might have happily rolled past the two had not it rolled over one of the footprints that Cody was leaving. There was an abrupt exclamation and the blue ball stopped, the small face on her blue and cream body pointing at the sky. <Akk! Um, excuse me! I said excuse me! Could I have a little help? My tail appears to be stuck!>

Cody scrambled over. She managed to trip somehow and land face first in the snow. Temerity beat her to the little blue ball, and he held out a paw. <Here, grab hold. I'll pull you out.>
"S-sorry." Cody stammered, her teeth chattering. "N-note to self. Find a b-better coat."

The aforementioned Pokemon only smiled, <Thank you.... what are you? I don't think I have seen you before, I am a Spheal.> He said happily. He then looked at the Paw offered to him. <I would love to use your Paw... but I only have flippers, unless you won't mind me putting my mouth on your hand.>
((Ugh.... first mod post for me in a while and it is short... my apologies.))

<I'm a Teddiursa, and I don't mind. My paws taste sweet, so I don't htink you would mind either. Just don't eat me. My name is Temerity, that's my trainer over there. Her name is Carly, but I think she likes to be called Cody more.>
"Hi there." Cody said. She crawled over and simply plucked the Spheal out of the snow, solving the paw eating problem. " You're such a cute Pokemon!"

<Why, thank you,> the spheal said, wriggling his tail. He wished he could see it. It was quite interesting being held up in the air like this. <It was very kind of you to get me out of that sudden hole, and who doesn't like to be complimented?>
<Someone with a sense of dignity?> a bush muttered.
The spheal sighed. <I know that was one of you spinarak, even if you are hiding in a bush. Why does cold weather give you all such nasty tempers?>
In response snow shook off the branch, and a wintern hopped out, glaring at the spheal, obviously haven written off Cody and Temerity. <Do I look like a bug to you, ball-body?>

"Let's not insult eachother!" Cody said sweatdropping at the same time. She positioned herself between the two, not at all sure what a foul tempered bird would do in this situation.
<It was an accident!> Temerity snapped, <He didn't mean it as an insult you know. Maybe if you weren't hiding in bushes all the time, he could have seen you were a Wintern!>

The spheal smiled happily, his black eyes crinkling up at the corners. It was so kind of the teddiursa to stand up for him, when he didn't even know the pokemon. <He's right, you know. I am sorry --,>
<Yeah right,> the grumpy wintern sneered, before addressing Temerity. <Be quiet, shamrock -- don't you know that the weather is supposed to kill all green planty things?>

The wintern stuck his beak out agressively, like a lance he hoped to spear Temerity with. The spheal's eyes widened as the tension in the air between the mean ice type and the normal type seemed to spark and crackle. <Oh boy --,> the water pokemon muttered. <This won't be good.>
<Oh, so not going to back up your threat, teddy? I can understand. After all you've got a little girl instead of a real trainer,> the bird sneered.
<Cody's right, Temerity,> the spheal told the bear pokemon. <He's just going to pick on you to annoy you into a fight.>

The wintern glared at her skeptically. <You want a snarky old bird, who enjoys insulting everything, on your team? You're an idiot. But I'll happily rip your fern-like bear apart.>

Cody glared right back, "Look, I've been polite to you, but I'll be honest. No, I don't have the desire to have you on my team. Not because I don't like you, but because I don't think I could handle someone who insulted the rest of my members."

<Well, excuse me for living, Ms. Uptight and perfect, > the Wintern said, drowning his words with sarcasm. <I mean, it's not my fault that they asked for the insults. I'm just doing my job. > He smirked as much as a bird could manage.

Cody sighed, had she hurt the poor things feelings? "They didn't ask you to insult them you know. Maybe you should try to be nicer to people, you'd get more attention that way you know. And it'd be much more positive."
Temerity only snorted, and turned away to look at the Spheal with a playful glint in his eyes.
