'Cause Baby, Tonight The DJ's Got Us Falling In Love Again...

Who: EVERYONE
Where: Scenic Tohjo Falls!
When: Friday, April 5 through Saturday, April 6
Summary: WHAT SUMMARY DO YOU NEED, IT'S POKEPROM
Rating: May vary by thread, please mark accordingly!
Log:

It's here! It's here! Clair's first-ever (and, Lance hopes, last-ever) Pokemon Prom is here, coming to you straight from scenic Tohjo Falls! You've packed your bags, you've hitched your rides, and now you're taking your first steps in to a super swank palatial PokeManor where, prior to now, only the pseudo-legendary best of the best had ever tread. Gosh, that must make you pretty special, huh? (Well, you and everyone else in the massive crowd that arrived along with you, that is.) Of course, you're all destined for greatness. But at the moment, your more immediate destiny is forty-eight hours of fun.

So get going!

☆ YOU ARE HERE ☆





KEY:
BLUE areas are where the bulk of the party's events will be located! As you can see, the festivities will be taking place largely outdoors, and the grounds will reflect that; there'll be the usual decorations of pretty floral arrangements, little lights, things like that. Think garden party!
GREEN areas are where guests will be staying overnight! Unfortunately, you'll be sleeping-bagging it up, since this is a house party and not a hotel party, but this is where you'll be given space to leave your possessions, claim some sleeping room, and generally crash for the night once the festivities do you in. (Note: you're welcome to try to sleep elsewhere, but Clair might catch you and disapprove. You don't want that, do you?)
RED areas are unfortunately off-limits to guests! If asked about them, anyone will tell you that those are the rooms and areas that the Elite Four have claimed for themselves, and they're sealed off tight. Please don't try to break into them anyway; you'll only be caught and punished.

AREA A is the designated Indoor Ballroom area, for the people who would prefer to class it up a little more than just your standard garden party. There's a big skylight, hardwood floors, tasteful artwork, and classy music — a little more upscale than the shenanigans going on outside, for the people who'd rather that kind of thing.
AREA B will be the area of interest for anyone hoping to sneak a little Pokemon research on the side: this is the Library/Gallery area of the house. While most of it is your standard "tall shelves of ancient identical books" fare, there are a few points of interest — a sculpture of Lugia, a painting of the Ecruteak City skyline before the Brass Tower burned down, some stone etchings of what might be Fossil Pokemon, and so on. Guests are welcome to look around a little, but burying themselves in research the whole time will be highly frowned upon, and you'll be politely encouraged to leave the library alone and go rejoin the festivities if you hole up in there for too long.
AREA C is...well, the Parking Lot. More importantly, it's where you take your Pokemon battles if you simply gotta get your battle on; keep it out and away from the house, please, and try not to make too much of a mess. Skirmishes, sorties, and sparring will be tolerated here and here alone. Do it anywhere else and you'll be facing some very displeased hosts.
AREA D is the Elite Four's Trophy Room. Please be quiet and respectful if you come up here to have a look around; it's a solemn kind of place. Here you'll find various collections of badges, ribbons, awards, and trophies put on display, with one wall devoted to each member of the Elite Four. Of particular note is a glass case with a broken Ultra Ball mounted inside; the brass plaque attached claims it's the ball Lorelei was using when she almost caught Articuno. On a lighter note, there are also pictures of the Elite Four themselves — your standard Official Portraits™, sure, but also some framed candids of them in various configurations hanging out with their Pokemon and engaged in various activities around the house (Agatha making waffles, Lance and Bruno clowning around in the pool, stuff like that).

THE ORIGINAL INFOPOST | QUESTIONS AND INQUIRIES HOTLINE

[He thinks about that. Inevitable things are his line of work in his own world. Dave nods once.] I can respect that. I'll just hang out in case you want to speed that along and because if he doesn't set you down, you're going to hit the water.

[Oh if he could only freeze time or move as fast as he used to.]
combat_butler: (It's on my head; Isn't it?)

*Hayate is fortunate that his toughness is all from training and determination, or doing this regularly would have killed him by now.*

Ahaha... Well, I'm going to be "hanging out" one way or another for awhile, so I don't mind the company-! Just, ah... Be careful of getting to close to the water's edge...
moveslikestrider: (How we can behave?)

[He still has all of the training and drive to keep himself alive. He was raised in a house littered with traps and attacked without warning at all hours of the day. Life had been about swords and irony - their form of it. Dave eyes the water's edge and gives Hayate a thumbs up.] Wasn't even planning to get within tentacle distance.

That's my sister's thing. Not mine. Is this guy your starter?

*Such harrowing tales of survival...*

--no! Definitely not!

*God, he would have been labeled a pervert from day one if this guy was his starter.*

He's just... He's one of my early captures, so he's, well... He's had a lot of time to grow strong and used to how to get the upper hand on me! ... ... temporarily, at least.

[His eyebrows raise at the choice of words.] 'Used to how to get the upper hand on you'. Are you telling me all of your pokes know exactly what way to shake you to get control?

combat_butler: (I'd sure love to have all manly icons...)

[personal profile] combat_butler 2013-04-10 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
... er.

N... Not exactly... He's the only one where 'upper hand' actually involves anything like this. To the rest it's just kind of attention they want, not... ... to toss me around.
moveslikestrider: (Isn't it serene?)

Don't get a Machop. It will just end badly for you, dude. [Now the question is, when the trainer will win out here.]
