*Well, here she was. Phoebe noticed that today was particularly sunny, and she knew there was a beach here. What better opportunity?! She just HAD to make herself right at home. After all, she always did the same thing in Hoenn, usually at the beach off of Slateport. For right now, Dusknoir and herself were simply standing here, stretching. She'd let the others out of their respective Balls in a moment, then begin her little dance recital. She had zero shame whatsoever. That's just who she was.*

***Wait- how did I end up here-* And with that thought, we meet the now only slightly tipsy gym leader as he seemed to scratch his head, feeling rather confused. He meant to go up to the mansion by now, but seemingly lost the path he tried to go on... Perhaps he took a wrong turn somewhere? Anyhow, not really bothered much by the fact that he lost track of where he went, he overlooked the place he now actually ended up at... A beach.**

***Well... I ain't complaining- finally a place to relax in.* Walking down closer onto the vast sandy 'fields' of the beach, the bag of buns still in hand, he began to notice someone out of the corner of his eyes, a person. But not any person, a flowery gal dancing her heart out it seemed. Wondering for a second, if she was a local of the island, he quickly denied that thought when he saw the little armada of strong ghost types beside her.**

**Simply walking down the beach, he smiled as he felt the familiar feeling of sand shifting beneath his shoes and stopped a few meters besides her, taking off his jacket, he took a very very deep breath in, smiling at the salty breeze, before letting three of his pokemon out, Geb- the Hippodown, Serqet the Sandaconda and Shade the Palossand.** Alright my friends- how about we relax a bit and make sure everything is nice, before we let out the three others?~ **The Pokemon cried in agreement and went with him to work- which was basically just Geb producing more send- Shade spreading it out and Serqet heating that new sand up for a nice sand bath, while Basil made sure that they wouldn't disturb the girl in any way-**

Ezra looked around. He glanced back down at his feet. He did like being near the water, and he saw that both N and Saul were ready to get into it. Ezra wasn't as... Willing, but he did want to get into the water! He gently taps Saul's arms and points to an area close by. 
"Do you see that, hun? That's a sandbar! It looks like it's still visible. And you see that teeny tiny islet out there? How about we explore that?" It would be wonderful to look out and around, being able to see aquatic Pokémon right along them. Plus, there wasn't anything *Too* Dangerous around here. It would be a nice stroll.
Doris
A small isle? To be frank, he actually didn't notice until Ezra pointed it as he was too distracted with their conversation. "Yes we may. It would be nice to see a Kingdra or a Dragonair as they are quite popular creatures in Blackthorn City," He chuckled. He didn't really need his pokmon for that long swim as the waves of the beach seem calm and subtle. He did however raise his concerns with the other two. 
 "Can you both swim?" Saul asked looking to N and Ezra. "If not I can offer you both rides."

**Phoebe heard... Well, she heard noises. Being used to steppin' on the beach (doo doo doo doooo), she heard someone else here, so she turned to that person. Huh. A guy with some Ground-type Pokémon. She managed to put two and two together and figure that people who stick to one type are usually Gym Leaders or Elite Four members. They just had that tendency to use one type. Stopping her stretching exercise for a brief moment, she curiously walked over to Basil, her massive Dusknoir looming behind her, keeping an eye out for suspicion (he was protective of his Trainer).** Hello?
Richard
**Turning around, he slowly blinked and realized that he must have disturbed her... Well at least he tried his best. His Jacket was hung over one of his shoulders as he sheepishly smiled at her** Hello there las, sorry if i interrupted yar dancin. **Glancing upwards, he saw the dusknoir and without hesitation just stared right into it's singular eye, his own twinkling with amusement. Turning his attention back to Phoebe, he scratched the back of his head and was about to say something, but a the feeling of his Sandaconda slithering up his leg, then upper body, before plopping it's own head ontop of his stopped him in his tracks.** Hm...? What's up Serqet? **Glancing behind him, he realized that the sandbath was done and chuckled before quietly patting the head of the snake and whispering a 'Good job bud.' to it**

Anyhow, as I was trying to say, I was just preparing a lil sandbath for me 'mons. Hope ya don't mind... **Serqet hissed out an apology to the Dusknoir and it's trainer, as Basil realized something** ...Oh right, before I forget, the name is Basil, Basil Thorn, nice meetin ya.
Mary
"Oh, it's not that. Don't worry about me." **Phoebe scratched her head with a small giggle. She then looked up at Basil, the Dusknoir behind her crossing his arms.** "I actually wanted to come over. I haven't seen anyone from Hoenn here yet, so I'm taking this opportunity to make some friends. My name's Phoebe!" **She smiled and put her hands behind her back as she naturally and slowly swayed from side to side (not intentionally so, it just sorta happened.** "Nice to meet you too!"
Richard
Hm.. Yes it is quite the opportunity though, excuse me for a second. **He flashed her a warm grin, before he took the Pokéball's from his belt and released his mon's behind him, 2 on the land and one in the water, a Torterra, a Mamoswine and a Whiscash, before laughing a bit and gesturing to the sandbath he prepared** There you go boys, relax yourself, though please don't make too much of a mess or ruckus!~ **All his Pokémon besides his sandaconda and his whiscash happily and slowly settled down in the warmed up sand, simply relaxing. The other two rather stayed on his head/in the water, nonchalantly watching everything. Turning back to the girl afterwards, Basil twirled his moustache.**

There, now that that's done... So you are from Hoenn huh? I don't remember any Hoenn ghost type gym leaders... So I guess you are one of the elite four from there? **He and his snake then glanced up in synch up at Dusknoir** Also what's up with this one? They seem mighty protective of ya.. Or can just tell that I am shady~ Wororororo~ **Serqet stares directly back at Dusknoir, as if to silently say "I won't touch your trainer, you don't touch mine, deal?"**
Nancy
"We may run into little babies too! Oh, we have an islet back home that's famous for Anorith and Armaldo." He informed, smiling. Swimming? Ezra wasn't too keen on it. He wouldn't mind walking to the islet even if it took longer. Besides, he was wearing a shirt that was... A little see-through! His cheeks were tinted with pink. He wore one of those today since he was still a little conscious. 
"I can swim! I would like to take off that offer on the ride, though." He gave Saul a sweet smile.
Mary
"Ahh! They look happy." **Phoebe awkwardly scratched her head.** "...I think they look happy, anyway. I'm not used to trying to tell what emotions the living are feeling. In that case..." **She herself tossed five other Poké Balls, revealing Banette, Mismagius, Chandelure, Drifblim, and Sableye.** "You guys can go run around and play for a bit." **They did exactly that, though Chandelure and Drifblim just seemed to enjoy sloooowly drifting through the air. Dusknoir gave Serqet that same understanding gaze, nodding.** "Yep! I'm the second of their Elite Four, after my friend Sidney. And don't worry about Dusknoir. He's just a little overprotective. Isn't that right?" **She asked him, and he nodded in response again, not making a sound.**
Richard
Wororororo~ Ah, you prefer the dead then over the living? **Tilting his head, he curiously asked her, as he got a small flask out and took a swig from it-** I get that feelin.. People are sometimes so hard to read.. And I guess it's the same for Pokémon... **Glancing at the released and playing Pokémon, a toothy smile formed on his lips** Well, well, well ain't ya got a mighty strong merry band of 'mons, I can see how you became a Elite four member... 

**Playing with his moustache, he then hummed in thought** ...Guess there is a fine difference between the level's of strength of gym leaders like me and Elite four members like you. **He mused in amusement, before he remembered something and pulled out two apples from his coat** Oh... And by the way, would you like an apple? Though be careful, one of these is poisoned, so choose wisely if you want one. **He said with a mischievous voice and glint in his eyes**
