{PKMN-Adv} The Forest's Dark

Pomona was used to the pokemon in the Woods coming and going of their own accord. A few pokemon drifting off for some time was not an unusual occurrence, but when Kalimah came running, making a fuss about pokemon having disappeared into the mists chasing after a light, she knew something was terribly, terribly wrong. 

After asking two of her most trusted pokemon to come with her, Kalina insisted that it would be too dangerous to go as-is, and asked Pomona for her blessing to evolve. With permission granted, the Skiddo was enveloped in bright light and emerged larger, more powerful and surefooted than before. Now feeling confident that they could face whatever they came across, the newly-evolved Gogoat beckoned her trainer and the Riolu hybrid onto her back, and the three of them set out at a gallop into the woods. 

As they traversed the now mist-covered forest, Pomona could tell that Kalimah was nervous—it was very unlike her. “Kalimah, what bothers you?” Pomona asks softly, turning to look over her shoulder at the pokemon behind her.

“…There are more pokemon in these woods than just ours,” Kalimah answers, eyes darting between the trees as they pass by. “We’re not alone.”
