Q&A in Berry Forest

[quintowill]

"Well so where do you think Ryhorn is taking us, Aron asked.
"I don't know but I hope it has catchable pokemon," Quinton said.

[Professor Gravon]

They walked on the berry forest for some time until the rhyhorn veered off the path into the shady forest. A venonat scampered past and many sentret bounded over the logs to hide from the rhyhorn. At last they came to a glade where there were four big berry trees.

There was a razz berry tree, iapapa berry tree, magost berry tree and an aspear berry tree. Under each tree was a pokemon. There was a spinda, a heracross, a bulbasaur and a sleeping pikachu.

<Hey guys! Meet my human friend! He fed me some really yummy stuff!> The rhyhorn said to the pokemon relaxing underneath the trees.

[quintowill]

"I'm happy I packed a lot of fruit," Quinton said to himself as he unloaded his pack. He has apples, grapes, mangoes, cantalope, bananas and even a slice of watermelom.
"Eat up," Quinton said to the pokemon

[Professor Gravon]

<Ooo! A picnic!> The bulbasaur cried excitedly, bounding over to Quinton. It used vine whip on it's tree and handed over three aspear berries for an apple.

The spinda collected four lapapa berries from under it's tree for a banana and the heracross tried to wake the sleeping pikachu, but with little success.
<Come join us Thugger!> The spinda called for the heracross. <This person is throwing a picnic!>

[quintowill]

"Let me try," Quinton said as he picked up the slice of watermelon. He walked up to the Thugger.
"You like watermelon,"Quinton asked while passing the watermelon underneth Thugger's nose.

[Professor Gravon]

Instead of Thugger responding to it, the sleeping pikachu got a waft of the melon. And before anyone could say anything, the watermelon was gone from Quinton's hand and into the mouth of the pikachu!

<Yeah! I'll join you all now!> The heracross, Thugger, said galumping to where the others lay. <Do you have any honey, treesap or honey dew melon?>

[quintowill]

"Yeah I have a honey dew melon ," Quinton says showing Heracross the melon and throwing it to him.

[Professor Gravon]

The heracross threw it's horn into the honeydew and the sweet juice of the nectar dribled into it's mouth.
<Umm!> Thugger said, throwing four magost berries to Quinton in exchange for the honeydew.

They all sat around and ate together.
The bulbasaur cracked a joke and all laughed. The spinda burped making the rhyhorn guffaw.

[quintowill]

After the picnic, Quinton decides to ask the question.
"Does anybody want to travel with me. I have more fruit where that came from," Quinton said.

[Professor Gravon]

Thugger flexed their biceps.
<I'd like to be trained to be the strongest heracross their is! And if you have yummy honeydew on you, I'll try with you for sure!> He said.
<You've always been self absorbed, Thugger!> The spinda complained.
<I've always wanted to see the world outside the forest!> The bulbasaur squeaked excitedly. <Can me and my pal come?> It said nudging the pikachu.
<If my buddy's going, I'm definitely going too!> The pikachu meeped.

The spinda hung it's big head, looking upset.
<We have the whole world right here! This glade is paradise! Why would all three of you leave me here! We have everything we need! Food, shade, water, space and... eachother!>

The rhyhorn looked at Quinton and then at his spinda friend. It wasn't expecting this. It looked at Quinton clueless.
<Do you want me to travel with you or stay here. I don't mind.>

[quintowill]

"Ryhorn thats a decision that you need to make. I can't make it for you," Quinton said. "If you want to travel with me,step to the left. If you wanna stay here, step to the right.

[Professor Gravon]

<I can't make up my mind! I freeze when I am forced to make decisions! Choose for me!> It said. It trembled a bit. It didn't like being in the spotlight.

[quintowill]

"OK if Spinda stays here, stay with him so he can have a friend to keep him company. If he decides to come with me, you can to. So what your decision Spinda," Quinton says.

[Professor Gravon]

<I don't want to be alone! Stay with me rhyhorn. Stay with me in this glade!>
After much thought, the rhyhorn decided to stay. The spinda was delighted.

Thugger, the pikachu and the bulbasaur were delighted for their friends and they exchanged hugs, rubs, paws and kisses.

'WE'RE GOING ON A JOURNEY!!!' The bulbasaur shouted with delight shooting seeds from it's bulb. The pikachu, bulbasaur and heracross grabbed eachother and danced around in a circle. Rhyhorn and spinda watched singing with them.
<Please drop by and visit us again!>
<OK!> Thugger said, now looking at Quinton. <Don't you have to put us in something first to initiate us as travel buddies or something?>

[quintowill]

"Oh yeah," Quinton said. He pulled out three pokeballs and touched Thugger, Bulbasaur and Pikachu with them.

[Professor Gravon]

The three cheered as they were sucked in.

[Professor Gravon]

<Oh! If you are on your way out of the forest, check out the giant parasect's lair. It's dangerous when it's awak but usually asleep. You can get some pretty interesting things there!> Suggested the rhyhorn. It seemed to know it's way around Kantex pretty well!

[quintowill]

"Alright. Thanks for everything," Quinton said to Spinda and Ryhorn. "And I promise to come back."

[Professor Gravon]

<BYE!>
The rhyhorn and spinda waved goodbye, watching the travellers leave the glade...
