Alex never thought he'll read such a strange trade request. The post said a woman was looking for a Plusle for her Morpeko, except that she's a busy woman and would usually shop at XYZ Grocery store at certain hours so please meet her there with the Pokemon, if interested. While Alex did finally caught a Plusle in Goldenrod, he got caught in the rainy weather before making his way to Ecruteak City. Then, he had to locate the store in the whole city to find the woman, and that took him some time since it was kind of far from the Pokemon Center he stayed in. "Hello, is this Susanne?" he called at almost everyone who entered or left the store at the designated time. Soon enough, a woman answered her call, and Alex quickly let the Plusle out to show the mouse to her. A mouse for a mouse trade. He heard from the woman how she needed to pick up groceries quick and then pick up her children from the park, and then prep them meals, and then used her spare time to make either scrap book or video blog or something like that. He thanked the woman when they were done trading. And since he was already here, ventured inside the XYZ store to see what was up with that store.

Susanne was busy, there were so much she needed to get done, as a personal shopper she had a long list of things another one was paying her to buy for them, and she was hunting where she could find it all most cheap. It was the perfect job for her but she had a problem: her morpeko. Most of the time she was cheerful, helpful and a great companion and mascot for her one-woman business but it was a hassle to keep her well fed or she got in big trouble. Someone called her name and she hurried over, "yes, that's me. How can I help you?" She greeted with a professional smile while the morpeko grinned beside her. She looked surprised when a plusle was called out without explanation, "Oh! I'm not a trainer!" She apologized and threw herself out into explaining this man all she was planning to do today, as a reason to why she wasn't a trainer. He managed to make it clear to her, that he was here about the trade she had been inquiring about and a smile spread on her smile. "And this is what you are offering me?" She asked eagerly as she pointed at the plusle, the check over was quick and she accepted it even faster and finished the trade. She had a lot of places to be today.

As the two old ladies entered the Pokemon Center in Ecruteak, they barely got to kick the snow off their boots before a strange old man practically pounced on them and bombarded them with question about if they had been out on the route and if they had seen any signs of a stantler while they were out there. He had a lot of explaining and story to tell them before he gave them any chance of answering his first questions. Astrid mentioned that they had battled one, which had run away first but had come back and asked to be caught, if it had been the same one. Before she knew it, she had agreed to a trade and was standing baffled with a pokeball containing a slowpoke, as the man left happy as a clam with his new stantler. "Peculiar, I hope his pokemon aren't as strange as he is!" Olga laughed.

Stanely had spent his whole life hunting for some of the most illusive and captivating Pokemon he could ever hope to find. When people asked him why he wanted them, the old Ruin Maniac would just tilt his head back and laugh with a loud, raucous sound as he spilled over every single detail on how these marvelous Pokemon would help him unlock the hidden mysterious of life’s ancient pasts. Stantler once had a powerful evolution that people of the ancient era had known all about – he’d seen the ruin drawings of these mysterious Pokemon he’d nickname ‘The All-Knowing Deer’. The Ruin Maniac had hoped that if he were able to get his hands on one, he could unlock its hidden evolutionary path for himself and uncover the great mysteries of the ancient Pokemon world for himself! When Ruin Maniac Stanely’s eyes landed squarely on the arrival of two older women they lit up like a lights on a Christmas tree in the middle of December. He immediately rushed over to their sides and grabbed Astrid by the hand as though he might invite her to dance with him. The Nurse that stood behind a large red counter with a large pink Pokemon with fluffy white ‘wings’ attached to its shoulders standing beside her simply rolled her eyes and sighed heavily. “Stanely! What have I told you about bothering everyone in the center?! This is a place for sick and injured Pokemon! Take your business elsewhere!” The Ruin Maniac laughed and simply waved Nurse Joy off with a flick of his wrist. “This is a once-in-a-life-time possibility, Nurse Joy! You wouldn’t understand!”Then he turned to Astrid and pressed his face close to hers without warning or hesitation as he stared deeply into her eyes. “Excuse me, miss! Have you seen any Stantler around here? I’ve been searching for one all day and all night to no avail! I’ve camped up near the tops of hillsides, stood out in the freezing snow and ice, and withstood howling rains and blistering heat for this Pokemon! I must have stayed here a million nights just hoping for the chance to find one! But every time I think I’ve come close…alas, it is no Stantler! The occasional Sawsbuck has passed me by before my very own eyes could ever hope to chance a glance at my Stantler!” When Astrid had the time and energy to assure Stanely she’d seen a Stantler – and had one – his eyes lit up more. “You’ve seen one?! Did you catch it?!” He nodded his head firmly, then dropped it when she mentioned how it got away from her. When she mentioned it came back and wanted to be caught, though, his face lit up once more. “Oh, that is fantastic news! I’ve seen carvings on ancient ruin walls that foretold an evolution only Stantler had! I call them ‘The All-Knowing Deer’! I’m sure they’re Psychic and Ice type – given the drawings of them making them out to be most likely all white with large antlers that have these odd eyes in their center! I must – I simply must – have your Stantler! Please…don’t you understand?! So that I can unlock this mystery for myself! Here…have my dear, sweet Daisy. She’s quite the shy little bashful type, I’ll warn you. And very hearty thank you for your trade!”Of course…Stanely was last seen being chased out of that very same Pokemon Center by Nurse Joy shortly after…

For once Lei had traveled ahead on a non official pokemon training trip, she had always found it a bit silly that you needed badges to prove your worth. Or rather, it was silly that she needed it too, all the newbies would need it or they would get into trouble right away, but it should be clear to anyone that she was none of that. Most annoying though was the lack of ride pokemon in this region, and every time she had tried to pitch the idea to anyone, they hadn't really seemed interested. A few had mentioned a taxi service in Goldenrod but it hadn't seemed like it lead to anywhere. At least there were working busses although she would never admit to her friends or family that she had been so low to use them. When she reached Ecruteak she left the bus as quickly as possible and set out to look for the trainer she had gotten in contact with. Of course she knew all about oricorio's but since it was so common she wanted a more special one, and went she found one sold by a veteran trainer she thought it would be perfect. She quickly found the place they had agreed upon and watched the group of trainers train for a bit before she called out. "Hey, anyone here named Tania? I'm Leilani, we have talked about meeting today."She would greet the veteran and exchange some pleasantries before she'd offer to show the slugma and ask about the oricorio.

Veteran Tania is relaxing against a tree enjoying the day. There are the usual trainers battling each other with some battles being rather lopsided and others being drawn out to the very last move of the very last Pokemon. As she continues to watch, the bus pulls up and drops off some passengers. None of them really stood out until one starts calling out for Tania. She sees where the voice is coming from and walks up to the young woman.
"Hi there, you must be Lei who inquired about the trade. I was rather amused you knew so much about oricorio and you are also from Alola. At least I know you will be able to handle this bird and her needs. The slugma is for a friend of mine who has issues keeping warm. I do appreciate this trade."
Veteran Tania hands over the Pokeball with one hand and offers the other in a handshake.

Alex approached the artist as he was busy shopping for art supplies in a small hip and trendy and chic store. "Hi, are you Louis?" He greeted a man who matched the profile of the person looking for a trade. After they greeted and confirmed the trade condition, be began again.
"I got a Venomoth that you're looking for. I believe she'll be happy to be with an artist to be the star." He smiled as he handed Louis a Pokeball. "Heck, you can take a look at her too if you want!"
He popped opened the bug's Pokeball, and the Venomoth flew around the unfamiliar manmade environment before landing on Alex's head. Some scales and powders scattered in the store, to which the store clerk tried not to roll his eyes from cleaning another Pokemon in aisle 5 after the spilled paint incident today at aisle 10 with a Bidoof.

Artist Louis sighed as he sat down at a local café and shook his head. Though his love for his beloved Marella and Evenstar was undeniable, his muse for them was next to nothing. Every masterpiece, every painting, it was all the same! Just the most generic poses and backgrounds, with nothing substantial to offer the Pokemon in the center of them. They deserved better – trainers who could raise them to their fullest potential if he couldn’t even bring out the star inside of them within his own artwork anymore. So when Alex asked him, he just mumbled, “Are we not all Louis, in some realm of existence or another?” However, as Alex continued with his offer, Louis’ face perked up. His muse! Such beauty in the stroke of every wing flap! Though large, round eyes begging to be encapsulated with the gentlest of brushstrokes! That nice, round abdomen that could steal with show inside a single art piece! “My apologies!” Louis immediately stood up, pulling out a small Pokeball and handing it over to Alex with a large and proper bow. “I’ve been upset with myself for my lack of muse lately. Usually Evenstar would be the center of the finest works of art! Lately, I’m lucky if she’s the center of mediocrity. Please, take good care of her, will you? Oh, though I love her dearly I know in my heart, I must let her go! Not for me, you see, but for her!”He'd lead Alex over to a large machine with two pods on each side meant for depositing Pokemon onto their belts. Artist Louis would wait patiently for Alex to do the same and watched as the machine lit up, snatching both balls up and spiraling them through its large tubing to spit them out on the other side from where they started. Louis would then pluck Venomoth’s ball up in his hands with a wide grin. “With this trade you’ve instilled my purpose. Willpower! The reason to breathe as you wake in the morning each day! Venomoth will be a star! Her name will be up in flashing lights from all the beautiful works she’ll be center stage in! Thank you, sir, for this most kind and generous trade!” He’d tell Alex with a bow.

Ethan entered a small and chic art store, looking for an artist who would match the description of the trade. Thankfully, there weren't many people in the store today, and the man Louis was easy to identify. After walking past a small family with kids by the colored pencils section, the young trainer stopped at the acrylic paint section and tapped the man on the shoulder.
"Hey, sorry. You are Louis, right?" He excused himself. Once the other person replied confirming the name, he would go on to ask about the trade. "I got a Plusle that you're looking for. You can check it out first before completing the trade." He grabbed the electric type Pokemon's Pokeball, and handed it to Louis for an inspection if he would perform one.

Artist Louis  Louis would eventually be found staring up at the shelf of paints. He seemed to be very focused, looking for the perfect color so that he could paint his new Venomoth in all of the amazing colors. She was so beautiful with her scales and wings, and he didn't want to miss a single detail or make any mistakes. When Alex called out his name, he jumped slightly and turned, looking embarrassed. "Oui?" he said, straightening his hat. "Oh! Trade Pokemon, yes that is true. Have you brought me a Plusle?" The artist smiled as the small red electric type appeared from its poke ball. It was exactly what he was looking for. "Yes, yes, they are perfect. Come, come, let us use the trade machine," he said, hurrying over, forgetting all about his paint selection. Alex and Louis dropped the poke balls into the machine at the same time and watched the display as the trade was completed. "Thank you so much! Have a beautiful day," he said, before shuffling off back to the paints.
