N: *Chatot and Sky-Shaymin were flying over the ocean*
Sky-Shaymin: You say there’s a paradise past through here, correct
L: Chatot: "Yep, and we shouldn't be too far... Believe me, I've heard nothing but good things about that island, we're gonna have a great time there."
N: *They see the island ahead*
Sky-Shaymin: Oh, is this the place... Wow! This island has so much lush
L: "Man, it looks even better than the pictures made it look... Can't wait to start having a look around on there!"
N: Sky-Shaymin: It looks so exotic and peaceful here. It feels like an island paradise
L: "That's pretty much how it was described online, I sort of thought they might've been exaggerating... Apparently they weren't!"
N: Sky-Shaymin: Let’s check it out
*They about to fly down and make a landing*
L: Chatot finds himself a clear spot on the ground, and lands, looking around. "Alright, what should we check out first..."
N: Sky-Shaymin: How about we check over there. We might find something cool there
*He points at the exotic jungle area*
L: "Sounds good to me, let's just wander around for a while." Chatot starts walking in that direction.
N: Sky-Shaymin: I wonder what we will find there, this is exciting
L: "Apparently the island's got something for pretty much everyone... Personally, I'm hoping for a nice lake for some swimming."
N: Sky-Shaymin: I was hoping for some deep mud to relax in, both of these sounds soothing, does it
L: "That mud does actually sound like it could be nice... Never tried relaxing in mud before, but I'll give it a shot if we find any."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Let’s see what we can find first
L: "I'm sure there's gonna be plenty of other fun stuff for us to do as well, so yeah, we'd better have a good look around!"
N: *They see the sign that points to many tourist attraction*
Sky-Shaymin: Ah, here’s something. We got plenty of places to check out it seems
L: "Ooh, yeah! Let me take a look..." Chatot goes up to the sign to get a better look. "Yep, there's all sorts of stuff! There's some mud pits not too far... And in pretty much the same direction, apparently there's a lake that sometimes has big bubbles you can breathe!"
N: Sky-Shaymin: Interesting, this is gonna be quite the vacation for the two of us
L: "Let's head for... Maybe the mud pits first, they seem a little bit closer. After that, we can wash off by swimming in the lake."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Sounds good to me
L: "Alright, let's get going." Chatot starts leading the way toward the mudpits.
N: Sky-Shaymin: I’m looking forward for a good time
L: "Yeah, I bet this is gonna be fun! And we're still gonna have a ton of stuff to see on this island after this!"
N: Sky-Shaymin: Yeah, we can stay here for a nice vacation
L: "We totally should! I think it'll be a nice way to spend at least a few days together."
N: *They reach the mudpit area*
Sky-Shaymin: Wow, it’s huge
L: "This is bigger than I thought it'd be, yeah... And it doesn't look like anyone else is around, so we might have the whole thing to ourselves right now."
N: *They notice the sign*
Sky-Shaymin: There’s a sign here... oh. That’s interesting. It say this mudpit is very deep and behave like quicksand. It also says that drowning has no consequences as we just wake up here if we happen to drown
L: "I wonder how that works... But I guess that means we don't have to worry about keeping ourselves safe, huh?"
N: Sky-Shaymin: Yeah, we can be careless if we wish.
L: "Well, this is pretty much the best chance we'll get to find out what it's like to drown... If you'd be up for that, anyway."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Sure, I’m up for it. It will be a fun experience
L: "Okay, good, I was worried you'd think I'm weird... Well, let's find a good spot and let ourselves sink."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Yeah, I’m ready to have a nice soothing sink in the mire
*They fly over to look for a good spot*
L: Chatot looks down below for a while... "Ah, there looks good." He points down with a talon toward a section of mud that's clear of rocks and has some plants around it.
N: Sky-Shaymin: Looks welcoming to me, you ready to use roost to sink here
L: "Yep! I've always wondered how that might help when drowning... Time to find out!" Chatot lands in the mud, already beginning to slowly sink.
N: *Sky-Shaymin landed as he started to sink*
Sky-Shaymin: Mud here feels quite smooth and comfy here
L: "I kind of expected to not like how this feels, but this isn't so bad..."
N: Sky-Shaymin: This is gonna be a soothing experience, having the biggest mud bath to sink in
L: "It might still be nice even once we go under, too! I see why you wanted to try this out!"
N: Sky-Shaymin: It makes me feel like I’m being planted in the soil as if I was using ingrain
L: "I've always wondered how moves like that must feel to use... This is probably pretty close to what it's like."
N: *They wiggle around as they sink to their waist area*
Sky-Shaymin: Now you know why I wanted to try this
L: "Yep, I do, this is pretty nice!" Chatot moves some of the mud around with his wings.
N: *The mudpit starts to bubble around them*
Sky-Shaymin: Oh, look. The mud suddenly getting bubbly
L: "I wonder what's doing that... But it feels good against me, I can feel them running through my feathers."
N: Sky-Shaymin: It sure gives a warm welcome as we go deeper
*They sink to their belly area*
L: "Those bubbles don't really look big enough to breathe like we can apparently do at that lake, but that's fine. We're staying until we drown anyway."
N: Sky-Shaymin: I got a feeling that we will be making big bubbles here when we go blubing
L: "I've always liked the idea of those... Kind of a shame we probably won't be able to see them here because of the mud."
N: Sky-Shaymin: True, but at least it still be a lovely feeling
L: "And it's not gonna be too much longer before we both have to hold our breath, as well... I wonder which of us will be able to last longer down there."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Only one way to find out
*They sink to their neck*
L: "Nearly there now... Hope this doesn't taste too bad when we start inhaling it."
N: Sky-Shaymin: I'm sure it will be fine, Feels good being this deep now
L: "Yep, this just keeps feeling better... I bet it'll feel great once we're fully under."
N: Sky-Shaymin: I bet it will
*They tilt their head as they ready to take deep breaths*
L: "Guess I'll see you when we're saved by whatever this place does that with!"
N: *They hold their breath as they slowly sink under the mudpit*
L: Chatot keeps his eyes and beak shut as he sinks, feeling and hearing tiny bubbles leaving his nostrils.
N: *They start blowing bubbles a little as they go deeper*
L: Knowing he doesn't have to worry about getting back out or even doing that well with holding his breath, Chatot just lets some bubbles loose, completely uncaring about air.
N: *They keep blowing more bubbles without a care in the world, knowing that they’ll be fine after that*
L: Soon, Chatot isn't sure he'd be able to surface on his own even if he wanted to... But he still doesn't mind, just happily bubbling away.
N: *They both starting to feel the strain from losing air the more they stay under*
L: Chatot's bubbling starts to falter a bit, both from getting low on air and feeling a growing need to breathe.
N: *They keep sinking deeper and deeper as their air starting to get low*
L: Chatot tries his best to keep up his bubbles as long as he can, though it's getting harder.
N: *The urge to breath begins to grow as they feel themselves running low on air*
L: Chatot is struggling now, forcing out more bubbles as he tries to fight the urge to hold his beak shut with his wings.
N: *They soon couldn't hold it anymore as they start to inhale mud*
L: Chatot's bubbles finally stop as he begins to choke, grabbing his neck... And starting to smile, finding himself enjoying getting mud in his lungs.
N: *Sky-Shaymin was in deep bliss as his lung is slowly filling his lungs*
L: Gradually, Chatot's body is going numb from oxygen deprivation, but he doesn't care, wanting to ride this out as long as possible.
N: *They blow a big bubble before they pass out, moments later they woke up next to the mudpit*
L: Chatot gasps as he comes back to awareness, looking around in brief confusion before remembering, seeing Sky-Shaymin. "Right, it somehow saved us... Can't believe how good that felt!"
N: Sky-Shaymin: That felt so good, best mud bath ever
L: "Looks like it mostly cleaned us off when it saved us too... But I'm still up for heading to that lake if you are."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Yeah, let’s go get some refreshment
L: "Alright, I'm pretty sure it was this way..." Chatot starts leading the way toward the lake.
N: Sky-Shaymin: I can hear the waterfall from here
L: "Oh, yep, this is right for sure! Come on!"
N: Sky-Shaymin: I can see it from here
L: "I hope we see those bubbles the sign mentioned while we're there, I want to try breathing them."
N: Sky-Shaymin: We will see when we get there
L: Before much longer, the two arrive at the lake, its water clear enough to let them see all the way to the bottom. Nearby, a similar sign to the one at the mudpits says that anyone who drowns in the lake will be saved in the same way.
"Man, this place looks great..."
N: Sky-Shaymin: The water here is all sparkling and clean too
L: "It's gonna be pretty fun to swim here! I wonder what we're gonna find down there..."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Probably plenty of exotic fish living down here
L: "Maybe they're friendly? We should try hanging out with them once we get down there."
N: Sky-Shaymin: We'll see, they will probably be plenty of colorful fishes down here
L: Chatot gets into the water, starting to swim. "This place is probably gonna have a good variety of fish, yeah."
N: *Sky-Shaymin start swimming to the center*
Sky-Shaymin: Ready to dive underwater
L: "Yep, let's get going!" Chatot takes a deep breath and dives, eager to explore.
N: *Sky-Shaymin takes a deep breath and dives under as well as they swim deeper down*
L: Some of the fish do indeed seem interested in the two Pokemon, swimming over to investigate. Chatot smiles, waving at them.
N: *The fish swim around them as they watch them swim*
L: Chatot pauses to let them for a while, but eventually starts swimming again, heading deeper.
N: *They soon reach the bottom and sits down there*
L: A few bubbles rise up from Chatot's beak as he relaxes, looking up at the distant surface.
N: *They start blowing some bigger bubbles*
L: Trying to remember how he felt when he'd drowned in mud and released what felt like a huge bubble, Chatot tries to copy that. While the bubbles he makes with that strategy are certainly smaller than what had formed before, they're notably bigger than normal bubbles.
N: *They continue watching the bubbles*
L: After a while, Chatot is starting to have a bit of trouble holding his breath again... He looks around, wondering if any breathable bubbles are nearby.
N: *Sky-Shaymin starting to feel the strain as well*
L: Wanting to have inhaled at least one big bubble on this dive, Chatot gets up and starts swimming again, trying to find one of those bubbles.
N: *Sky-Shaymin swim around til they see one nearby*
L: Chatot quickly swims to the bubble, taking in the sight of it for a moment. Then, he holds onto it with his wings, presses his beak against it, and inhales. The bubble shrinks, refilling his lungs and letting him catch his breath. Once he's done, he pushes what's left of the bubble to Sky-Shaymin so they can try it too.
N: *Sky-Shaymin inhale the air inside the air bubble, after that they sit back down at the bottom*
L: Satisfied, Chatot just relaxes again, this time not planning on getting another big bubble.
N: *The fishes come back to them as they watch them swim around*
L: Chatot smiles as he watches the fish, blowing bubbles up at them every now and then.
N: *The fishes even start playing with their bubbles the two are blowing*
L: Chatot starts blowing out a constant stream of bubbles to watch the fish play with them.
N: *They blow one big bubble as they keep watching the fishes*
L: Chatot is pretty happy to actually see this one, and feels that he's now pretty much figured out how to blow big bubbles.
N: *They both start to feel the strain again but continues to sit and watch*
L: Still blowing bubbles, Chatot intends to keep going until either his lungs are empty or he starts inhaling water.
N: *They both feeling low on air as they make no attempt to resurface*
L: Just like before, Chatot is content to let himself drown. He's looking forward to getting to actually see the huge bubble he'll let out when he passes out this time.
N: *They hold on as much as they can as the urge to breath begin to grow*
L: Struggling like when he was in the mud earlier, Chatot has to force himself to keep letting out air, but he refuses to let his bubbles stop until he doesn't have a choice.
N: *Soon they start inhaling water as their lungs start filling with water*
L: Chatot grabs at his neck again, this time only with a single wing as he knew what to expect of this. He coughs a few times, letting out just a few more bubbles before his lungs are completely flooded.
N: *After their lungs are filled, they released one big bubble before they started to fade out*
L: Chatot smiles at how huge that bubble is, before letting himself pass out again.
Shortly after, he finds himself on the shore again, next to Max.
"Man, that drowning kind of didn't hurt as bad this time..."
N: Sky-Shaymin: Yeah, especially after we drown before
L: "I'm kind of tired now though, not sure I'd want to drown a third time... Maybe we should just relax for a while now?"
N: Sky-Shaymin: Yeah, there should be a place to rest
L: "There must be a good spot for that somewhere, with how awesome this island is."
N: Sky-Shaymin: It’s a islander paradise
L: "Yep, and I think it's gonna take a good few days for us to see everything it's got."
N: *They both find a place to rest as they enjoy the rest of the vacation being here*
