A day on the beach. [SOCIAL, OPEN]

Oleg let out a happy whistle as he walked along with Walter, Walter carrying a beach towel. Oleg was not usually the type to rest in the beach, but he had heard so many good things about this place that he might as well experience it atleast once. He scratched his chin as he reached the public part of the beach. It was late afternoon, so there were still lots of people enjoying the sun. Oleg walked to the nearest changing booth. He then entered it, quickly changing into yellow shorts, leaving himself otherwise bare. He was rather pale, but it was not TOO unnatural. He then exited the booth, smirking to Walter.
The two then wobbled off to a less populated part of the beach, lying down their towel as both sat down, with Walter grunting and emitting some sparks from his antennae as a sign of happiness. Oleg simply lied down, letting out a satisfied grunt. He scratched his chest, which was covered in thick hair.

Present Pokemon: - ''The sand certainly feels warm today...''Amanda smiled, closing her eyes and letting the soothing sea air wash over her, the hem of the sundress she had picked for the occasion: fluttering in the wind. One of the perks of having joined the Wave Dorm was the proximity to this wonderful beach. A perk, she had rationalized: would be shameful to waste. So, having quickly changed into appropriate clothing, and tossing her Pokeballs and a few necessary items into a beach bag; she had set off for a relaxing afternoon. As she paced through the sand, carefully stepping over a sleeping Psyduck: the young lady took in her surroundings. She wasn't the only one that had thought of visiting the beach, as the sand was populated by a rainbow assortment of towels and chairs, some occupied by sunbathers, others empty as their owners enjoyed the water. Nodding to a resting boy in yellow shorts as she passed by; Amanda delicately placed her bag in a secluded spot: unfurling her towel and draping it over the sand, she relaxed. Pausing only briefly to tap the balls inside the bag: releasing the small Pokemon within. Allowing them to relax alongside her. ''Have fun you two!'' Amanda giggled, letting the Munchlax and the Mudkip run off as she lay down to sunbathe.

Oleg nodded slightly to the girl, before returning to simply lying down and bathing himself in the sun. He was already rather close to sleeping before sinking his hand into his bag, releasing the rest of his pokemon. Walter the electabuzz proceeded to continue sunbathing, and Lancel the Pawniard simply sat down and watched the sea. But Rinnie the Swablu and Hoare the Nosepass had different ideas. Rinnie slowly flew towards the newcomer girl, letting out a faint coo as she then landed next to her. Meanwhile Hoare begun to float towards the newcomers, emitting a faint hun, his nose pointing towards them.

Seria decided to take Aquaelie out on a nice day. Well, Aquaelie was still a little baby Pokemon, Azurill... But, he was very cute, and bouncy, and Seria liked that a lot. She had a beach bag with her, containing her belongings and her clothing, for she had already changed into a cream-colored swimsuit. Caught between her torso and her left arm was a rolled up beach towel, Seria had gone to the beach today! And so she went, feeling the coarseness of the sand on her feet, she really enjoyed nature in its prime. The forests, the beaches, she enjoyed it. Bouncing next to her was the Azurill, who seemed very pleased to be out here in close proximity with the water.
Seria looked around and casually spotted Oleg sporting a pair of yellow trunks and not much else. Seria had to stop herself from chuckling from far away. She also saw a tall girl (taller than her, which meant something!) who was wearing a sun-dress, relaxing under the sun on a beach towel of her own. Seria smiled as she realized that lots of people must have enjoyed the beach. She found a spot which was actually fairly close to Oleg, he could see Seria if he bothered to notice.
But she found this spot, and casually threw her beach towel on the ground and lay on it, looking up at the sky while letting Aquaelie bounce around happily by her side.

For living really close to the beach, Tanya had not thought to spend time at the beach until recently. The waters looked absolutely beautiful and she wanted to know how the waters felt. Conveniently, since she lived in the dorms that were closest to the beach, Tanya thought she might as well go and have fun.
Wearing a simple light blue two-piece bikini that didn't leave much to the imagination, Tanya headed off to the beach with two different towels underneath her arm as well as having her bag on her back, which contained her pokeballs and a change of clothes. A pair of white flip flops accompanied the look and as she wasn't going to immediately head into the sea, she still wore the glasses on her head.
Once she reached the beach, she saw a few people. One person was a guy she occasionally saw in class. He was a bit big and apart from that, she didn't really know much. On the other hand, there looked to be a girl on her own, who had released a Mudkip and a Munchlax. It was then that her eyes caught onto Seria.
"Hey there Seria! Mind if I put my things next to you?" Tanya called out, having already done so before she actually got approval to do so in the first place, a bit away from the guy who she didn't know. She was sure Seria didn't mind.
"Your Azurill's pretty cute, you know that? Hey, you wanna get into the water with me? It'll be fun~" Tanya proposed, already getting ready to get into the water as soon as she had dropped off all her things.

Seria was relaxing on the beach towel and basking in the sun rays when she heard the very muffled sound of stuff falling next to her. It only took three minutes after words were mentioned by her when she then realized that Tanya had found her here on the beach. Without getting up, Seria nodded and said "Yeeep, sure you can put your stuff there." Smiling as Tanya complimented Aquaelie on being cute, the Wave dorm trainer then suggested a splash about in the water. Suddenly sitting up, Seria turned to face Tanya properly. "A swim in the water? Sure, why not? That sounds like fun! Our stuff's gonna be okay here, right? I'll go with'cha!" Seria noddled again and fidgeted a bit excitedly.
She then briefly turned to the others present and wondered if they would be interested as well...

“Phew, it’s a pretty hot day today.” Cameron noted as he felt the sweat collect on his bandanna. Sadly, Cameron didn’t really have anything planned today. He had already done a decent amount of exploration, no classes were planned today, and he had already worked out. So here he was in his hot room, throwing a ball in the air while he lay in his bed. “Hrmmm...” He groaned in thought. “Wasn’t there a beach somewhere around?” Jumping out of his bed, he went towards his duffle bag that held all of his papers in a crumpled pile. Unfolding it he saw exactly where the beach was. “Heh, Wave Dorm! Easy!” Excited for a cool day at the beach he quickly got into some trunks and sandals, and relieved himself of his shirt.
As soon as he got outside of the Lava Dorm, the heat quickly intensified. “Okay, gotta get there as fast as I can!” he tightened the knot of his head band and quickly sprinted off towards the beach. When he made his way to the edge of the beach he was barely dragging his feet. Sometimes it wasn’t good to run until you couldn’t run anymore. He would try to remember that. As soon as he saw the clear water and white sand he couldn’t help but run towards the water. “Watch out, Muscles coming through!” Cameron shouted towards the people he saw, weaving pass the people instead running over them, kicking up piles of sand behind him with each kick off the ground.
He dropped his red duffle bag a decent distance away from the water and continued his stride. When the cold water met his legs, he kept going until only his head was above the water. “Ahh… so good…” he said in utter bliss. He turned back towards the people he disturbed and waved towards them “Sorry ‘bout that!” he shouted before going back to relaxing in the water.

After getting everyone healed up from the fight against Oleg, mostly his Nosepass that is, Chris decided to let his Pokémon have a break, so he actually gave the, a chance to pick where to go... Midnight of course wanted the graveyard... not a chance... Skorupi wanted the forest, which was a bit better, but Sol and Dusk, who had recently evolved into a Weavile, both wanted to go down the beach... so the beach it was. Having changed into a simple white short sleeved shirt and a pair of black trousers instead of the uniform and a decently sized bag over his shoulder, Chris ended up heading off towards the beach with Dusk walking alongside him.
With Mana being a bit further away from the beach than Wave, it took the two a while to actually get there, so at the point in time we arrived it appeared that everyone else had already arrived... well great... more people, but as Seria said, still got to try. walking over to an unoccupied spot which left ample room for the others, Chris took out a simple black towel and set it up across the ground, on which he sat as he sent out Skorupi, Midnight and Sol. Sol found herself smiling, glad to be at the beach just like Dusk was, Skorupi seemed somewhat content, even though he didn't get his pick, but Midnight seemed to be annoyed that she didn't get to go to the graveyard. "Well, here we are, you all wanted a break, feel free to do as you like" Chris spoke in a kind tone to his Pokémon, who, after some deliberation, made up their minds.
Sol found herself merely Sitting near Chris, watching the waves, Skorupi went off scuttling around, going to say hello to the other Pokémon, Dusk seemed to be keeping a Careful eye on everyone, acting as the peace keeper, while Midnight flew upwards and began surveying the area from above.

Adjusting herself, Amanda quietly produced a pillow from her bag, popping it underneath her back for a more comfortable position. In doing so, she couldn't help but notice how more and more people had begun to join her little spot of the beach. Most had released their Pokemon that were now also enjoying themselves. She could see some of the newly arrived girls talking to each other, it all made for a very calming experience.
A soft humming sound emerged near her, and looking down, Amanda noticed a Swablu had perked it's beak at her. Smiling, she patted the tiny bird, reasoning the Pokemon likely belonged to someone nearby.
''Perhaps I should take a swim, it does seem like everyone here i-''
He train of thought interuppted, Amanda barely had time to bring her arms up, preventing any sand from hitting her face as a hot-headed boy ran past, kicking up a storm. She huffed, indignantly brushing herself off.
''Ce un garçon très rude!'' she scoffed, audibly.

Oleg had already closed his eyes, simply hearing some newcomers. He then slowly drifted to sleep, snoring heavily, as did Walter, the electric pokemon lying with his face down against the towel. Meanwhile, Lancel noticed the Mana newcomers, especially the skorupi, as he waddled off the greet the scorpion. He knew it from before, but now that they were not battling, Lancel was more open, nodding his head in silence.
Hoare continued humming as it suddenly sunk into the sand, only his eyes and the upper half of his nose being seen from all the sand, humming louder to try and attract some help.
Rinnie cooed happily as she was patted, shaking her wings for a moment... Before the boy ran past, dashing sand on her and the girl. Rinnie cooed sadly, beginning to rub the sand away with her wings, trying to cheer the girl up and maybe even stop her from scoffing.

"Awesome!" Tanya cheered, pumping her fist in the air. The elation she felt about getting into the water was changed to horror when a whole bunch of sand suddenly got kicked in her general direction. She barely had time to shield herself from it all. Tanya grimaced in anger as her bikini got covered in sand.
"Who the hell was the idiot that did that?" Tanya shouted, annoying dripping with every word that came out of her mouth. It was then she saw a guy from that she didn't recognize giving a half-hearted apology in the waters. Crossing her arms in anger, she let out a huff and glared at the boy.
He was so going to pay for this. It was bad enough that he disturbed her own outfit, but it looked like he kicked up sand on nearly everyone on the beach. Tanya ran towards the waters, putting effort into making sure she didn't accidentally kick sand onto other people. Once she reached the sea, Tanya dived into the water and swam out to reach the guy. What she didn't take into consideration at the time was the depth of the water, which increased the further she got away from the tide. She stopped relatively close to the guy, but not so deep that her head couldn't pop on top of the waters.
"You're a jerk, you know that?" Tanya berated, smashing her hand into a water in order to throw some into his face. Who the hell did he think he was?

Having arrived after the whole situation with the kid kicking up sand, Chris and his Pokémon hadn't been affected at all by the boy who had been kicking up sand... benefit of having further to walk... you get to avoid stuff like that. Chris merely sat back and watched, keeping a wary eye on the situation, while messing slightly with the shirt collar, trying to get it to hide the tatto on his neck, which he partially succeeded in doing, although the top of It could still be seen.
Skorupi looked towards Lancel... the Pawniard from earlier... well, the fighting is all water under the bridge now... so no harm in conversing right? The Skorupi seemed to call out to it in some kind of way, clearly not being aggressive, more friendly in nature than anything else.
Midnight, upon realizing what happened before they arrived, chuckled to herself, finding it rather amusing, perhaps that would be good for some pranks some time... well, Midnight is just that kind of bird, although she knows she has to watch out for Dusk. Within the group, Dusk, being the strongest, most sensible (alongside sol anyway) and most experienced, had kind of taken up the role of being the peace keeper of the group, which constantly put her up against Midnight... it wouldn't be the first time Midnight has found herself getting punished by Dusk.
Sol merely sat back and watched what was happening out in the water, seemingly curious as to what was going on. In order to try and sate her curiosity, she used psychic to get a better understanding of what happened previously.
Dusk found herself patrolling back and forth on the beach, keeping a careful eye on Chris's other Pokémon, ready to jump in and intervene the second they try anything violent or attempt to cause trouble. She wasn't keeping focusing on the other trainers Pokémon though, so unless they actually tried to pick a fight, Dusk wasn't going to bother with them, their own trainers can handle it, it's their responsibility and theirs to handle.

Some time to relax in the cool, ocean water was exactly what Cameron needed. “Ah… so good.” He said in complete bliss. Though it seemed the few people he saw weren’t as satisfied as he was. He could hear a lot of commotion going on at the beach. In fact he could have sworn he heard one of those girls yell something he couldn’t exactly make out. “Say, un Garsone tray rude?” he thought aloud. What in the world does that mean? “My name isn’t Garsone!” he shouted back at the girl. She must have been speaking in some other language though the thought only came to him afterwards. He shrugged off the alien remark and went back to relaxing.
A little later another girl came up to him and splashed water at him. She seemed to be having a little trouble keeping her head above water. It was funny how short some people could be and he couldn’t hide his laughter very well. “I’m a jerk huh?” he finally decided to acknowledge her remark. He didn’t very well know what he was talking about. Though he could see that she was covered in wet sand, sshe must have just got finished playing in the sand or something. He wasn’t exactly going to try and figure out exactly what she was doing beforehand. “You’ve got sand all over you, you should go underwater, it should get most of the sand out for you.” Wait she’s having a hard time keeping her head above water, maybe it’s a good idea to get closer to land.
“You should probably get closer to the beach. I’m taller than you so I can stand up easily in the deeper water.” He then remembered that she came to him to call him a jerk for some reason. He scratched the back of his damp head, wearing an expression of utter confusion. “Uh… You wanna take this closer to the beach or something? Sounds like you and that weird girl have the same problem with me.” Seems he was gonna have an eventful day. As much as he wanted to be annoyed by the trouble, he couldn’t help but wear a cocky grin. “Oh yeah, you’re looking good.” He remarked with a whistle before moving back to the beach.
When he got to the other people he noted that some of them were covered in sand. “So, what happened here? A Pidgey blow some sand on you guys or something?” Something must have happened for these people to be covered in sand the way they were. “Oh yeah, which one of you callme me Garsone? My name is Cameron, not Garsone.”

Seria blinked and shook her head as by the time she had followed Tanya into the waters of the beach, an excitable kid ended up running through the whole beach and kicked sand up at basically everyone when he went to the water as well. Aww... That's not very considerate! Seria thought to herself, but she fidgeted as Tanya decided to call the guy a jerk. Said boy obviously had no idea what he was talking about, considering that he seemed to be completely oblivious to the fact nearly everybody in the vicinity was covered in sand thanks to his excitability. Seria was close to Tanya at this point, and she was much taller than her, and only a bit shorter than the boy, so more of her body was visible above surface.
"You were running so excitedly you kicked sand over everyone! Isn't that a bit inconsiderate?" Seria called out towards the boy, who she now noticed had many sorts of scars. He must have gotten into a lot of fights in the past. "'Course people are gonna get annoyed if you do something like that..."

With a heavy sigh, Amanda struggled to clean her dress. Yet to no avail, the sand had gotten everywhere. Pouting, she quickly tugged the sundress off her body, exposing her swimsuit clad body. {''Si cest le genre dexpérience que je reçois en sasseyant sur le sable alors peut-être que je devrais aller à leau au lieu!''} ''If this is the sort of experience I get by sitting on the sand then perhaps I should go to the water instead!'' She rolled her eyes, gracefully standing up. Gazing sadly down at the upset Swablu near her, she turned to the boy nearby. ''C'est absurde, can you believe this sort of uncouth behavior?'' she questioned.
