Area: Katarina Docks
Jade had been intrigued by the flyer, yellowed, torn and rather old looking. It claimed to be from the same people who had run the cruise, the one that she had heard afterwards had involved the lot of them finding treasure. And Bidoofs. But treasure mostly.
Maybe this one would involve treasure as well.
After all, mysterious flyers that none of the Aquas had seen delivered boded well for adventure. And since they weren't doing much at the moment... well, she saw no reason why she shouldn't investigate. For Team Aqua of course.
Thus, she had made her way to the docks where they were supposed to be meeting, a bag filled with supplies, her loyal pokemon on her belt, and a note left for the rest of the Aqua's letting them know that she was off for a bit. She was rather hoping that some of them might have been on the Cruise, and might even remember just where they had ended up. What would be a better place for a hideout than someplace like that? She wasn't holding her breath though, most landlubbers couldn't even get from one city to the next with out a map, much less able to give her directions when they had been on a boat. Still, it was worth a shot, and would make an interesting conversation started if she needed one.
She did wonder if there was any sort of reasoning towards who had been sent the flyers, and how they had managed to get delivered, but she supposed that those questions would be answered as the thing went on. Or at least she hoped so. She grinned brightly, and scanned over the crowd, looking to see if there was anyone she recognized. Perhaps some of the ones who had gone on the mountain excursion would be here.

Location: Katarina, heading towards the Docks With: Phrixus
The two had been traveling for a while, Zak thought it would be best if he left his other pokemon at the center while he traveled with his new houndour. Sakki needed some down time after being kidnapped by Team Rocket, Flora's attitude towards flying pokemon never changed and Zue, was well Zue the loveable large bat that always had a tendency of sitting on his head. Zak needed a break from the bat.
Phrixus, now a houndoom, had brought the flyer to the boy's attention earlier and now the two were on their way to the docks of Katarina. Both were eager for the adventure at hand. The houndoom's personality hadn't changed much after its evolution it still acted like the loveable pup that longed for attention, aside from when it was in battle. The only thing that had changed was that it looked for battles everywhere, often instigating fights with other pokemon. That was something Zak was trying to work on with the houndoom, hoping that this trip will help it.

Peep! Peep!
Sienna sat up in the hotel bed and rubbed her eyes, a fluffy blue and white bird peeped again in front of her. “Skylar? This isn’t like you to wake me up so early…” The brown-haired girl yawned. The swablu peeped again, this time a little more quietly, his excitement had simmered down at the thought that maybe he shouldn’t have fluttered onto his trainer’s bed while she was sleeping. The rest of her flock was asleep in the corners of the small Pokecenter overnight room, some choosing to stay in their pokeballs for the night due to the confined space. It was a free room after all, none of them were expecting their stay to be glamorous, but it was better than camping.
Sienna blinked her dark brown eyes at the bird. He had grown so much this past year, in body and in personality. She wondered if he was going to evolve. Then she noticed the piece of paper in his beak. “Oh! Sorry buddy, is this why you woke me up? Looks interesting…” Skylar gladly handed her the piece of paper. He knew she’d be so happy! It was a poster about flying! And he was excited about flying, through those mountains looked sharp…
“Balloon rides, huh? Well, since we’re in town, and there’s free food, I’m sure it’d be fun to go,” Someone must’ve slipped the flyer under the door earlier that morning. She folded the paper and put it down on the bed as she rose. “Good morning guys! We’re going on an adventure!”
“” Grumbled a large pidgeot from the corner.
-------------------------
Location: The docks
“It’s a real bummer that the rest of the team didn’t want to come, but I think the two of us will have fun, right Skylar?” Sienna spoke to the bird on her head as she made her way through the streets of Katarina. “We’ll be at the dock soon. Not nervous at all, buddy?” The bird puffed his feathers out a bit and shifted, he might still be a little nervous. There were so many things to be scared of, big things, sometimes small things, loud things; though lately he had been less afraid of everything and a little more curious. Yes, he wouldn’t be scared about this adventure. Big colorful balloons, what could he be worried about?
The pair reached the dock and surveyed the scene. Several trainers had already gathered in the area advertised by signs as the meeting place for the balloon rides. A breeze blew by, sending Skylar into another round of fluffs, and made Sienna glad she wore her heavier jacket and a scarf. Then, a gale of wind rushed over the water beyond the docks and caught Skylar off Sienna’s head; sending the bird tumbling down into a Houndoom.
[Hope it's okay that I responded to you as if you're already down at the docks, if not let me know and I'll edit it :3b ]

Genesis twirled the mysterious flyer around as she strode towards the docks, the soft tune sung under breath belying the grim suspicion she felt. Apparently, this was being run by the same person who'd taken her and many others to the Bidoof Island, and the memories of that event alone was enough to send shudders down her spine. She'd been hesitant to partake in this one, especially because of the last-minute notice, but it'd be a good opportunity to snoop around. After all, she was curious. Where did the funding for these trips come from, and why was another being hosted? Was another team behind this? Would there be an opportunity to turn it towards Team Rocket's advantage? She'd find out.
It was easy work packing her supplies; she traveled often for her missions, and all she had to do was switch out a few items before she was ready. Gathering the Pokémon necessary, however, had been more difficult. Due to an unspeakable accident regarding another few exploding toilets, only her latest addition to the group had been left unharmed enough for her to be able to take onto the trip with her. Thankfully, he was already an experienced fighter. On the other hand, his circumstances had left him unevolved and his abilities were stunted as a result. His Riolu stage had shorter legs, too, and were close to waddling at his quickest speed.
"Come here, I'll carry y--" She turned towards him as she spoke, and inadvertently ended up slamming her bag against a stranger passing by.
A blow!
Ajax leaped away, his fur standing on end and his bright eyes glaring daggers at the enemy his trainer had "attacked."

"Sorry!" Genesis called, her hands fluttering as she struggled between checking whether he was all right and wondering if it was inappropriate to touch him. In the end, she opted for neither and instead opened the flyer in front of him, the paper held mere inches from his eyes as she acted her part of the flustered trainer.
"A kid? ...Oh!" Her face had gone red, but she was relieved to realize he was talking about her Riolu. Pokémon was definitely a topic she could get behind.
"Little A? I'm afraid he's too old be a kid now, but he looks it, doesn't he?" She laughed and looked down to see her companion had a Riolu of his own, too. Pocketing the flyer, she crouched to be closer to eye-level to the hat-wearing Pokémon and cooed out a greeting for him, one hand held out to see if he'd allow her to pet him.
Ajax blinked when the "fighting" died down, but he wasn't the type to pursue conflict when it wasn't needed. He turned an appraising glance towards the young Riolu, but when he realized it was only a pup, he gave a little sniff and stepped towards Genesis instead.

Sunshine flowed into the room, waking a young traveler. She groaned and pulled the covers over her head. In turn that woke her furret, Eldur who was sleeping against her legs. Giving his trainer a disapproving noise, she pushed the covers off of her head. "I know, I know," she said before getting out of bed. She looked around the room, that was given to her for the night at the pokemon center. She sighed, wondering what she was going to do that day.
Little sparking sounds brought her attention to the side table. There on the table was the newest member of her team, a tiny little joltik. The electric bug, gave off another spark before crawling off of a old looking piece of paper. "Huh? What do you have there, Velia?" she asked as she pick up the paper. She read over it a couple of times, thinking things over.
It was a flyer about a ballon ride over the Clockwork Wasteland. It would be a lot of fun, but the whole thing seemed a little weird. The paper looked really old, while the date of the event was today. "They don't gave a lot of warning for this, do they?" she said more to herself then to the pokemon. "Beside they probably took a lot of time to make the paper look old, probably to add tone of the trip."
There was no way, the traveler would past up on something like this. It will be an adventure, plus a new place to see. She looked at her two pokemon. Eldur was glaring at the paper, while Veila was staring up at her. That made up her mind of what she was going to do. She was going no matter what, but it will be a good time for her and Velia to bond and get to know each other better. "How about it, Velia, shall we have a little girl time," she asked the little joltik.
Once Kaskia figured everything out, she started to get ready for the day. It didn't take her to long. She made sure she had everything she needed and that Eldur was save and sound in his pokeball. At last, she grab her hat and Velia, who was sitting on top of it. After placing the newsboy hat on her head, she waited a moment for the joltik to hide underneath it, before heading the to the docks.
