This world is inhabited by creatures that we call pokemon. People and pokemon live together by supporting each other, but now the scourge threatens the safety of the entire region. Kohaku has become a dangerous place, where children stay at home and only brave souls go adventuring.
Welcome to KOHAKU. Come for the nightmares. Stay for the tea and crumpets.
The season is SUMMER. It is easy for survivors to forage for food from the land, as there are entire abandoned farms ready for harvest. On the downside, you can smell the corpses.

It dies without a sound, the slowbro, but that doesn't stop its remains from splattering everywhere. Somewhere up above, the magikarp curses under its breath. 'Idiot.' His second in command stares past its comrade's remains and fixes its gaze on this human, the sort of interesting prey that lake pax gets far too little of, nowadays.
Meanwhile, the crack around it widens a fraction of an inch, barely noticeable.

the mienfoo does not like the fact that the ice is cracking. it does not like that at all. so naturally, it tells ahuda, who sighs and humors her anyway.

The jellicent barely gets a tentacle out of the water before the ice breaks away, falling apart in large pieces that separate to reveal the water underneath. Then, abruptly, it stops, hovering on the water's surface like an over-sized bath toy.
The magikarp, as if sensing the inevitable, sighs gustily, slamming its tail down on the dock.
jellicent is pacified!

thank arceus, that worked. madonna breathes out a sigh of relief even as she readies herself, seeing the charizard partner out of the corner of her eye doing the same.

6o SCOURGE MAGIKARP - SWIFT SWIM splash, tackle, flail, bounce
There is no glory in the death of a scourge. The jellicent dies without a sound and, so too does the magikarp. Its tail twitches for a good three seconds after the dust of battle settles, then stills along with the waves of the water below.
On first glance, the scene may be mistaken for a girl who reeled in the catch of the day. Then again, what's to say the magikarp general didn't think it a lost battle from the start, and defeat as an inevitability? Why else would it attempt to recruit rather than fight, as any loyal scourge would?
The answer - answer to any questions, at that - disappears gradually, like the ice that floats away, slowly but surely into the distance.
magikarp is hit by everything magikarp faints! magikarp is available for capture!
well finally. ahuda sighs and looks at her charizard out of the corner of her eye worridly, before calling him back. the mienfoo can still stand, though, so she merely helps the pokemon up before tossing pokeballs at the corpses. which includes the slowbro from earlier that i forgot about. oops!
then she gathers her things and her pokemon before teleporting them away to the nearest outpost, leaving questions and hidden answers that she as a ranger does not have the ability to see behind.
