@Mist "Yes, I'd much rather be like what seems to happen with an umbrella a lot; I come along, ready to work, but the need never arises."
Finally the rock started to crumble, and shortly after a way through was cleared. "Thank goodness!" Anise said, wiping the sweat off her brow. And there's berries and water there, too. Looks like a great place to rest. Or stop for the night," she added, noticing the darkening sky.

((@ Nyoko and Bouncy))
Tired, dirty, and wishing for a sit down, Rhia stared at the opening and cautiously stuck her head through, taking in the nice area. She pulled back to allow others to look or to go through and moved back over to Oyumi.
"The other side looks safe enough." Castor came trotting up and Rhia beamed, patting his dirty neck. "Good job!"
"Pony, nyta, po."
"We may end up resting for the night." She looked up at the sky, trying to judge the time. "No telling where we'll end up at nightfall if we keep going from here."
Edit for Bouncy: She turned as someone shouted they should continue and shook her head.
"What if night falls? I don't know what caused that rockslide, but I'm sure something in this forest would be interested in us if we don't hit Motterossa before it gets fully dark. We should stay here and go in the morning. As much as I'd like a bath, it's safer."

 Lumina danced through the clearing, dunking her hands into the fresh, cold water with a laugh. "Haaaa. Glad that's done with."
She turned to the group and pulled out her notebook, "Well, with the town so close we could make it soon. I'm worried about what's been going on and a bit afraid at the pace of things. If something else was to happen.." those strange words floated to the surface of her mind again, "it might be good to check up on the swarms ahead.
"On the other hand, I think pokemon and people alike are dead tired." The watcher exhaled a laugh as she rubbed her arms.
"Guess I'll take down votes?"
She marked one for going, two for staying, based on the comments she overheard.

 Robin brought his tune to a dramatic end as the wall came down, then set Elizabeth aside and enthusiastically applauded the Pokemon and humans alike who had helped bring down the obstacle. They certainly deserved praise.
Exhausted, Etna slithered to Robin's side and dropped herself noisily into a messy heap. "Well done, Etna," the violinist said, smiling and patting the Onix on the nose. "You can get a good night's rest now. We might want to move over there to the other side of the wall with the others, though."

@Rhia:
"That sounds good. Bunking with someone else for a change will be nice. Just don't mind if Fuutarou sneaks out of his Pokeball in the middle of the night to snuggle up with us," Oyumi said lightly, smiling towards Rhia. The next question made her hum in thought. She hadn't even considered staying in a hotel when she arrived while she was still in Katarina. "I was actually just planning on camping out."

Flint looks uncertain, looking from his own rental Tauros to everyone elses pokemon, all of wich look absolutely exausted " i dont know... the pokemon are too tired, it would be better to stop and get a fresh start in the morning otherwise we could risk further injury to one or more of the pokemon"

 He-heeeeey, would you look at that! That Raichu was a smart cookie - a little effort under its direction, and a path was opened up to open space and the road forward! Corn made a mental note to give that Raichu something nice tonight.
@Bouncy;
Corn turned to look at the girl with a - a Lugia, oh damn - as she addresses the people present. Swallowing her excitement about seeing a legendary, she retorted casually, "It's probably better not to press the Pokemon. Better to sleep light, wake early and get there in the morning."
Hopping up on her Onix again without waiting for a vote, Corn directed him to a point a little downstream so she could scrub up without making the water undrinkable. Since night was coming on, she started casually looking for a place to lay down her sleeping bag. Hopefully there wouldn't be any need for rain dancing again tonight.

@Anyone in red!
Yes - sweet, blessed water! Nina took a drink from her canteen as her Swablu went off for a bath, and blinked at the sunset. Was it that late already? Well, time to get out the tents again~ There was no way Nina was going to travel in the dark.
"I don't know about any of you, but I think we need to settle down - I'm sure all the Pokemon are tired, what with all the moving they've had to do today, and I need sleep." She wasn't even sure how close they were. Finding her rental Ponyta again, she frowned, and patted it on the back. "Well done, dude," she grinned at it, and then chuckled at her shiny new Swablu, who was settling itself on Nina's head and dripping water. "You, too...hm, I wonder if anyone around here can tell me your gender?"
[the swablu's female if you want to take a gander orz]

Gritty, sweaty, the newly revealed clearing seems very inviting. Perhaps she can finally get that ramen made. She whistles sharply and waves her arcane over, wondering if her traveling companions will decide to stay the night or make a break for it. Mmm, berries...

@ mist
Alex pointed to the now open path. "Looks like the way's open. Won't have to drink this dirty water."
She patted Buck's sweaty side. "Good job Buck. You deserve a rest. Go on, we aren't continuing today." She slapped him on the rump and he trotted off to relax."
She watched the ponyta walk off before using her bucket to sweep some of the smaller rocks out of the way.

Rhia smiled slightly. "I'm sure it will be fine." She hugged Aimee's exhausted body, still smiling. "Good girl. Thank you for your help."
"Neary..."
"I should have camped out, but I managed to snag a room. The chance for showering was too much of a draw for me, though I'll probably only use it sparingly and end up wasting a bunch of money. Who knows what interacts with the Eevee at night, right? Or what the Eevee themselves might get up to? I could miss some great shots if I'm in the hotel every night."

There are sounds of a struggle in the distance up in the mountains. There is a roar and the loud sound of something hard crashing on the rocks. However, it is getting dark and most trainers are tired from the recent rock slide. Finding a way up the mountain quickly would also be hard. Perhaps a group of a few people could go to investigate?
(First 5-10 people to quote this may go, I'll set up a separate thread for it)
@Live: A rockslide just happened but it was cleared :3

@Rhia and everyone-
Lizzie turned to one of the trainers with a Ponyta, and sighed. "What, and we're not going to get mugged out here? I'd rather not have a repeat of the Swablu or Meowth incident. We'll be safer once we reach Motterossa, that's for sure..."
((Editting, I'll go make another post))
