Chapter 492.
"Pokémon park time."
(The Loud House.)
The date is now February 27, and the kids in the loud house are all feeling like a good time to spend at Ketcham Park and so they all get ready with what they have, and this time, Lori is with them. She got a break from college for a short while but she has to be back by tomorrow.
Lori goes through the list of the things they all have. "Okay, so we all have the picnic baskets and boy are they many, also good work on making the snacks for today."
"Thanks, we all had to work together and make it happen" replied Leni. "I even managed to make some sandwiches thanks to some tips from Chloe Curda, she's a really good cook."
"So is dad Leni" replied Lana. "A shame he won't be with us today, but he does have to cater this party at the restaurant." She then looks around. "Has anyone seen Metapod?" she then goes out into the backyard to search for her cocoon-Pokémon.
Lisa comes down with a large book, which Lincoln goes over to help. "Easy Lisa, also what the heck are you bringing this for?"
"That Lincoln, is a book for any information should we encounter a new kind of Pokémon within the park, chances there will be one due to the arrival of the new season to when the local flora and fauna arise from their slumber to commence a start to the fresh…" she sees all of them confused at what she's saying.
"I'm saying that spring will bring new Pokémon."
Now they understand, then Lola comes in from the backyard and is carrying Metapod. "Lana! Found him! He was stuck to the tree house, and I don't even know why."
Lana comes out from the couch and she goes over and hugs Metapod. "Thanks Lols. Now we can head out to the park." She with her pink twin race out of the house and head for the car.
Lincoln then takes the large book. "Lisa, you could use the tablet to check on Pokémon information and let's not forget that from what Peter Harris said, someone is gonna be at the park to check on the local Pokémon that might appear there, so there's no need for this big book."
"Lincoln's got a point Lisa." They all get startled from the sudden appearance from Lucy. "Also, I doubt we even have space for that book. You really should leave it home."
Lisa sighs. "Very well, I shall use the tablet to figure out what kind of Pokémon we might be facing, let it be from the regions known, or from the regions newly discovered." She walks out of the house with Lucy, the Goth girl is also bringing her bat Fangs with her.
Luan then comes down from the stairs with Lynn. "Guys, mom called and said she'll meet us at the park with Pop-pop and Gran-gran. They're gonna bring something good for us to enjoy too."
"I am so gonna enjoy some Frisbee, football and soccer time" replied Lynn. She then races out of the house and goes into Leni's car. The eagles Patriot and Valkyrie are already outside and waiting for them.
Luna comes down the stairs as well, with her guitar and then Michelle with Lily in her arms. "Alright gang, we're all set and ready and the pets are coming with us too." The pet's race down the stairs and head to the cars as well. Lincoln gets a message from Jordan.
Jordan Rosato: Lincoln, new Pokémon and a whole lot of them and it seems like Liam may have found his Pokémon buddy and he is so adorbs! Come over to the park, also Sam is here as well.
Lincoln smirks and he follows the others, Luna notices this as she helps lock the door to the house. "What's with the smirk there bro?"
Lincoln chuckles. "Let's just say, we're gonna have a whole lot of Pokémon to encounter and a good timing for this day too." He gets into Luna's car and everyone else to the other rides and they drive off to the park, looking forward to what they might encounter.
(Ketcham Park.)
The wonderful and peaceful Ketcham Park, and spring has sprung and the whole place is lively and feeling like a small tourist attraction, and wildlife reserve, because there are a lot of new Pokémon that have been spotted and yet there is a major question as to why there are so many.
The louds have arrived and they look around and are amazed. "Whoa!" The twins look to the flower garden and see different kinds of new Pokémon, and they're not even for the specific kind of region too, but they see some very familiar Pokémon meant for flower gardens.
Sighted: Ivysaur, Bellossom, Sunflora, Budew, Cherubi, Cherrim, Combee, Cottonee, Petilil, Liligant, Flabébé, Fomantis, Bounsweet, Cutiefly and Gossifleur.
"Whoa, looks like what Jordan said was… OOF!" The snow haired boy is tackled by Jordan and the duo roll around in the grass and come to a halt, next to sleeping Snorlax.
Lincoln and Jordan laugh a bit and so do the loud sisters and they take some pics at this cute sight. Jordan then kisses Lincoln and she departs and looks to his love daze. "Yup, still a cute sight when you're in love." she gets up and helps him to his feet. "Sorry for that, thought it would be…"
"The best time for the first new season for the first tackle and love moment? I get the idea, Jordan" replied Lincoln. They walk together along with the loud sisters to the picnic sight.
They continue to walk around and see other folks there enjoying the park and also checking out some of the Pokémon in the location. "Huh, those seem new" said Lynn, they all look to the Pokémon she sees. But they also see some familiar ones in the area.
Sighted: Fennekin, Pancham, Paras, Snivy, Venipede, Emolga and Deerling.
Lincoln smiles seeing the deer Pokémon. "Cool, Deerling, which means we might encounter their next evolution, Sawsbuck."
They all make it to the picnic sight and they meet up with Pop-pop and Myrtle, and Rita. "Hey gang, glad you all made it and Myrtle brought a cake for us to enjoy."
"This gal made this cake herself, with some help from me of course" replied Albert.
Myrtle chuckles. "The hard part was trying to keep him from eating the batter." they all chuckle hearing this, and so does Albert. He couldn't help it, the batter tasted delicious.
They all setup the picnic baskets and food and they begin to bring out all they have brought with them. "So, what's new at Sunset Canyon Pop-pop?" asked Lynn.
"Well, the big news is that there's a spot for a new senior at the joint and I for one think that Myrtle should take the room" replied Albert. "So that she doesn't have to always take the taxi to come and see me."
"Well, it would be nice to move into the place and be close to my sweet heart, but I need to make sure the board of the retirement place is fine with me moving, there might be another applicant" replied Myrtle.
"Chances there could be" replied Lisa. "Who knows how many more seniors have been popping up in town and as I recall, Sunset Canyon is a far more peaceful and sanitary place for the elderly, and also a fun place."
"Yeah, we think you deserve to be in Sunset Canyon, Gran-gran" replied Leni. "You totes deserve it and it beats taking the taxi, oh and you can be part of the many discount stuff they have when the ice-cream truck goes there."
"Leni has a point, Gran-gran" replied Lori. She then drinks her soda. "You literally deserve to be there."
Myrtle is touched by every one of her grandkids saying that she should go and stay at Sunset Canyon. "Wow, thanks kids. That means a lot to me, but like I said, there might be another applicant there and I wanna see what they got new when they begin to let new seniors tour the place."
"Now, enough about me. Let's enjoy the fun time at the park, also your friend is here Lincoln."
Lincoln and Jordan look around and spot the hooded man with a raven staff standing on top of a nearby tree and is looking around the place.
"Looks like that Guardian dude did came here, can't blame him. There are a ton of new Pokémon popping up and Whoa! That is adorable!" said Luna. They all look at what she sees, and what they see is what Jordan mentioned in the text.
They see Liam and Tabby, and following the farm boy is a new Pokémon which they have never seen or heard of: Wooloo.
"Wow! Talk about a cute little sheep, not gonna be baa-rging in on that cute lamb-ing moment, and no wool over our eyes to shield us from the cuteness!" chuckled Luan. "But seriously, that is so adorable!"
"It's about to get cuter" replied Lucy.
They see Liam and Tabby sit on the bench with Jillian Henvers and with her is her infant son, Lucas and the infant goes to Wooloo and the baby hugs the sheep, with the sheep not minding this and hugs Lucas. This makes a lot of folks just "Awe!" at how cute it was.
(Later.)
The rest of the louds all go around and enjoy what fun they can, in the park with the new Pokémon that have arrived, and they even enjoy this moment with their friends.
Lori and Leni hang out with Jackie and Mandee by the lake and they see some water-Pokémon are there, and a whole lot more.
Sighted: Poliwag, Squirtle, Tympole, Oshawott, Ducklet, Mudkip, Wooper, Totodile, Barboach, Froakie, Sobble and…. Why is there a Magikarp in the water?
Lynn Jr is playing soccer with Annabelle and Polly, and they get joined in by a Pokémon they did not see coming. A Scorbunny. Then a Hitmontop joins in and then a Growlithe plays with them.
Rita is busy talking with Jillian along with Michelle, Albert and Myrtle, and also there are Sam's parents and the parents of Hope and Gretchen and they're all unaware of the sleeping Pokémon nearby them.
Sighted: Abra, Komala, Slakoth, Phanpy, Silicobra, Meowth, Rowlet, Shinx and Munchlax.
Luna and Sam are making some sweet tunes, while also keeping an eye on little Lucas and they get some help from Bullet and Trubbish, and of course Liam and Tabby are with them and Wooloo.
Luan is with Giggles and both are coming up with some new jokes and also keeping an eye on Lily, and they have no clue that a Chatot is sitting next to them and listens into their jokes, and then a Ditto and a Zorua, have snuck close by and are listening in. Lily however notices this and smiles as she hugs the Zorua.
Lucy is sitting underneath the tree near the large forested area of the park and she continues to write on her poetry journal and she fails to notice the Ghost-Type Pokémon looking at her. Fangs is the only one who notices this, and he feels a little spooked out.
Sighted: Ghastly, Litwick, Pumkaboo, Drifloon, Phantump, Misdreavous, Duskull, Yamask and Shuppet.
The rest of the pets from the louds are playing with some new companions in the park.
Sighted: Eevee, Diglet, Pachirisu, Lilipup, Skitty, Pichu, Morpeko, Bunnelby, Buneary, Pidove, Tailow, Pidgey and Aipom.
Zach and Rusty are both looking for this odd looking Pokémon that they heard was there. There was a rumor that there was an Elgyem and Dottler sighted in the area. They think they might be alien in nature, well one of them is alien in nature, they don't notice the Minior sitting on the hill.
Lisa is busy observing each new Pokémon her siblings have encountered and she is fascinated and curious as to why and how these new Pokémon species have ended up in their world. She also notices Gyro looking up into the sky, and so Lisa does the same and is amazed at what she spots.
Sighted: Latias and Latios. How is everyone else not noticing them fly by?!
Lincoln and Jordan of course, are busy with eagle training with Gretchen, Hope and Ryan. With them of course, are Apollo and Raptor who watch as this flight practice goes on and they didn't mind letting Yamper and Rockruff play with the twins.
Lincoln then looks back to the Pokémon that are interacting with his siblings and to some of their friends. "Sure is nice with these new Pokémon in the park, this seems normal and also very peaceful."
"Dang right" replied Jordan. Then she recalls something. "Linc, is Leni's birthday tomorrow?"
Lincoln nods. "Yup, and I know that we all have something special for her, she's gonna have the best birthday…. Which is also her last before she has to one day… Well, leave the house and go to college soon."
That one they all know, and are a bit saddened, but they have to be happy for her. Even Hope is looking forward to what gift she has for Leni.
But they don't know that it's Christina who overhears this and she smiles. 'Sure as heck, Leni will be so stoked and love what I have for her, and I have my mom to thank for letting this gift happen.' She then goes over and picks up her Pokémon companion, Sewaddle.
Yeah, spring has come and this seems like new things are coming, and they're called Pokémon.
