It had been a week since Alex had visited the casino fountain. When he had arrived, he saw a Beedrill in his vision and his eyes widened, with awe and surprise. He had no intention of getting a Beedrill himself, but maybe his housemate Ethan does. Still, he couldn't resist talking to another trainer who openly have a Bug type next to her. "H--Hello!" he greeted by the fountain, and casually tossed a coin and then began his conversation. "Your Beedrill is quite big! Or maybe that's how big a Beedrill is! This is my first time seeing a Beedrill up close and personal. The wild ones are known to attack so this is a nice opportunity... Um... Just please be careful though, even a domestic Beedrill can still injure you with the danger of disrupting your nervous system with the poison..." He chuckled awkwardly for knowing a bit more than average human about the injuries that a Pokemon can cause to someone.

Dorthea had let Aglaia mind her own business, when she had first spotted her in the gaming halls. They had parted ways for some hours, not to get on each others nerves. She really hadn't expected to find her in here, since she didn't seem like the kind of person to play any of the games. Dorthea couldn't keep away forever, though, so then a boy started talking to Aglaia at the fountain, (Dorthea was just close enough to hear: why was he scaring her like that?), she used the fountain as excuse to get close to them. Unlike the last time she had thrown in a coin, she wasn't looking to see, where it landed. She was looking at the boy, though he might have been older than her, a warning in her eyes. "Wystan would never hurt her." she said with conviction.

Strutting forward with determination in every stride, a dashing figure clothed in the highest of Unovan fashions made hsi way through the game corner's foyer and over to the fountain. It was garish, extravagant and just about everything one would imagine of a casino design feature. Eyeing the waters, he noticed a glimmering foundation. " Hmph. Fools, throwing away what could be put to better use elsewhere." Taking out a cigarette, Tobias was momentarily distracted. In the time he was, Prometheus snickered and turned to face the fountain. Having pilfered a coin from one of the slot machines earlier, he flicked it in without so much a thought. Tobias receives x1 Potion

Returning back to the fountain a lot happier than her original visit, Sharada had decided to make her trips to this wishing fountain more frequent. Last time, she had tossed in a coin and managed to stumble across a rare Nugget later on in the day. It was so lucky for her! Not one to totally bask in luck, as she didn't necessarily believe in it, it atleast didn't hurt her to try. Holding a lone coin in her clenched fingers, she closed her eyes for a few moments before flicking another coin in.

Aglaia looked around warily, as she reached the fountain once again. She kept a great distance to other people and hadn't brought Wystan out this time, as she wanted to avoid what had happened last time she had been here. She had no problem with a stranger approaching her, she was used to that from working in a parents shop, but it wasn't nice to be told you should be wary of your closest friend! She had been relieved when Dorthea had arrived and had told the stranger a thing or two, and she had sneaked away, leaving it to her cousin to deal with it. Aglaia found a spot near the well, where she could sit and relax. She frowned, why was she getting nervous about strangers? She had been so nervous and scared the last couple of weeks, though mostly for her own pokemon and the battles she was forced to have. Did it affect her so much she was developing and anxiety? That would be a problem if she wanted to have her own shop and talk to people all day long! She sighed and looked at the water crashing down into the pool. It was calming and she absentminded picked up a coin and flipped it into the water.

Yokina struggled to keep a grip on the large, shiny Coin in her front paws. Holding a large coin and walking at the same time is hard! She turned to her partner-in-crime, a goofy Electrike that plodded along at her pace, and tugged on his fur to get him to stop. She threw the Coin on top of his back before clambering up as well, using his fur as handholds. She settled herself between his shoulder blades, and took the Coin in one hand and a fistful of his ruff in the other. He trotted along towards the fountain, weaving between peoples' legs. Maybe Yokina would give him a treat for helping her! Yeah, maybe even a Poffin! That'd be nice... His nose bumped against the edge of the fountain and he yelped, drawn from his thoughts. Shaking his head, he felt Yokina dash up and across his head, using him as a bridge to get onto the edge of the fountain. Yokina held the Coin in her hands, brow furrowed as she tried to decide where to toss it. Maybe into that shiny pile over there! Decision made, she put all of her energy into tossing the Coin, watching with satisfaction as it tumbled and splashed down, landing in the pile. “Pi-chaaaaa!” she let out a cheer and pumped a hand like she had seen a human do more than once.

"Hey, Guys, come stand in front of the fountain!"Justin urged his team, a rag tag group of Pokemon indeed, to stand in front of the fountain while Justin snapped a photo of them. It was a very tourist-like thing to do, considering Justin grew up a town over, but he wasn't about to sacrifice a nice, pretty shot for something that may seem silly. Funny as it was, Justin liked the fountain. Whether it was lucky or not was up to the user, but so far it'd been nice. After flicking his coin in last week, he'd managed to get home in enough time to not miss an important meeting. Which, of course, was awesome. "It turned out great. But, we must pay our respects."He bowed his head comically, before digging into his pocket for one of his game coins. With great flourish, he flicked the coin into the fountain and watched it sink quickly with satisfaction. "C'mon, I need a milkshake or something. It's hot for an Autumn day..."

Marchbaby decided that since he had such good luck the last two times he used the Casino Fountain that he just had to return. He had gotten lucky twice now and it had been a huge help towards meeting his goals. He was still quite a ways off but every little bit helped so he decided that he must give it another go as his luck had been good so far. The price of just one coin was nothing to him if it put him closer to some of the things he was after. He entered the Casino yet again and walked towards the fountain. Like before he took a single coin out of his backpack. " Lets see if this good luck streak can keep going. I have been lucky so far. He said as he flung the coin out of his hand.
Marchbaby receives nothing...

Dorthea yawned and slumped down at the fountain. She just wanted to sleep, but she was too tired to move. Maybe she was coming down with something. She yawned again, and stared absentminded down in the water and its accumulating treasure. She might as well. With slow movements she found a coin and dropped it in. No throwing this time.

When another girl came up to defend the girl with Beedrill, Alex found himself in an awkward situation. He felt terrible and apologized, "I'm sorry... I just... Nevermind... I'll just quickly toss the coin and go." He backed away as he sighed. Well, perhaps he shouldn't talk to people like that. He went to the corner of the fountain and simply dropped a coin. Not even tossing it. In fact, the area there had like, no coins in the vicinity.

Despite his bad luck in the previous week he had still gotten lucky 2 of the 3 weeks and Marchbaby decided it was time to pay the Casino Fountain another visit. Even with the single coin for nothing last week he just could not turn up a chance at some wonderful prizes and he entered the casino again with a coin in his hand. He did not have any interest in any of the games at the moment he was only here to try his luck at the fountain again. He was hoping for better luck than the last week but only time would tell.

Waltzing through the crowd and doing his best not to try and let his hands wander, Joey made his way eventually to the outer ring of the casino's fountain once more. This has become something of a weekly ritual and he was amazed to see how many people he would see tipping in a coin to try their luck. At this point there were definitely some familiar faces he was starting to see, all of which were fairly unique in their own right. Definitely a few faces a person wouldn't easily forget. Having grabbed a coin from his pocket, he extend out his hand and with a confident flick of his thumb, tossed the coin over into the water, letting it meet the water with a harsh plop. " Well, well, well. Wonder what i'll get this time. If Lady Luck decides on more tokens, that's fine by me." Shoving his hands into his pocket, he watched the water settle as he eventually saw himself in the reflection and laughed. " Haha! I look rough. Maybe i'll go find some shady corner to go snooze in."

"What is this? How is the water doing that?" Hands dug in her pockets, Sharada sighed lightly to herself. She had decided to bring Tenebrae, her Zorua, along with her to the Fountain. She was worried the amount of people around them would scare the unique Pokemon off but he was too distracted by the grand fountain before them. "It's magic." Sharada teased with a blunt voice as his eyes continued to light up with interest. Pulling out a coin from her coin case, she handed it to Tenebrae, "Here, flick it in. If you throw a coin into the fountain and make a wish, they say it could come true." Considering she had been lucky in finding an item or two after doing this, she couldn't say if it was exactly true or not. Taking the coin, Tenebrae examined it and with a raise of his arm, lobbed it into the water with a rather over dramatic throw. Speechless, she just allowed him to marvel in this strange, human custom

Aglaia stretched her back after having sitting still for so long time. She had taken yet another break from the gaming table, and waclked a bit around until she reached the fountain once more. She watched how the water fell down for a while, before wondering on the different ways people threw down coins. "I probably shouldn't waste any more on that." She thought as the last coin she had thrown in, definitely hadn't given her any luck. "Though no-one has ever said it is a 'Luck fountain', so why are all talking about it bringing them luck?" Aglaia thought as a pair went by, telling how they had won this or that, or found something which they had thought was lost. "It more sounds like they give the fountain credit for all the good things that happens for them." She thought amused and decided she didn't wanted to do that herself. She wasn't going to lie to herself for something as small as that. "Perhaps I should try wish something instead of waiting to get lucky and find a lot of incidents to prove it had worked like the others?" Aglaia thought with a giggle. She felt really stupid as she went to the Fountain, and with a ashamed expression wished to win all rounds in the games she played for the next week, and threw the single coin in. Perhaps it wouldn't be used for anything and just lay down there until a renovation, but it wasn't a complete waste as it lighted Aglaia's mood quite a bit. She laughed over her own sillyness as she walked back to the Game Corner.

Rhoan glared at the water as it fell from the fountain with a look of distaste. "Of all the things, i'm stuck waiting here? I mean, why not somewhere exciting?" Crossing her arms, the Rocket looked from side to side before approaching the water. Many people had stopped here to flick coins into the fountain, and because of that, she'd had her interest piqued. What if the fountain really was lucky? Otherwise, why would people even stop by? She wasn't a kid anymore; she didn't have need for coins and wishes, but it didn't hurt to try. Cayzle seemed to think the same, and took it upon himself to dig into her pocket for a coin case. Flicking the coin into the water with a dramatic arc, Rhoan glowered but said nothing as the coin sunk. "Kinda like my career..." She muttered to herself, before returning to her post.
