A/N: Apologies for the long delay, but after bonus chapters and job finishing and wedding organisation, I'm back; Nanka's Pokémon Miiverse Adventure is back!
As mentioned last time and just now, there was a bonus chapter of NPMA set between Act 6 and this here Act 7, detailing the events between Nanka and Sabrina's Dress-up Doll session. It kind of relies upon artwork made for the series, so it cannot be properly done on this site. To make up for it, as always, this chapter is far earlier here than it is on other sites, so do enjoy this in-advance reading.
Nanka's Pokémon Miiverse Adventure Act 7!
The Story So Far!
After a variety of events that ranged from spotting Legendaries, murder, and acquiring a Vulpix named Beauty, Nanka and Jolt went to Saffron City. To their surprise, said city had been taken over by the nefarious Team Rocket.
After obtaining a Hitmonlee named Stretchy, Nanka and Jolt snuck into Silph Co; the largest tech company and building of Kanto, as well as the reason for Team Rocket's city takeover. Inside, Nanka got to work freeing hostages and taking down Rockets, along with a somewhat embarrassing encounter with her childhood friend and self-proclaimed rival, G-Man.
After numerous encounters with Rocket members ranging from friendly children entertainers, a familiar thief, traitorous scientists and the loveable Team Rocket trio of Jessie, James and Meowth; Nanka and Jolt once again came face-to-face with Boss Rocket. After a tense showdown with Boss Rocket and the arrival of back-up, Team Rocket left Silph Co. After saving the day (unbeknownst to many) and getting some rest, Nanka was gifted with both a Master Ball and a Lapras she named Ferry.
Later on after a reunion with her friends, Vicky and Ricky, Nanka and Jolt challenged the Saffron Gym. Nanka won, but after friendly chatter, she agreed to spend the evening with gym leader Sabrina as her… dress-up doll?
The clock struck 12PM, sunlight pouring into the Pokécentre guest room, urging the weary girl to rise for the day. Nanka did not rise though, instead she chose to remain face down in bed, a full-face crimson blush still upon her as memories of last continued to repeat in her head.
Last night Nanka had agreed to spend the rest of the day with Sabrina, Saffron Gym Leader and powerful psychic, as her dress-up doll. The idea of choosing from a wide selection of clothes and getting to try on such a wide variety of outfits seemed pleasant; exciting even. Unfortunately, there was quite a difference between dressing and being dressed, and dress-up dolls weren't supposed to dress themselves.
"You do have green hair, so this is certainly the most fitting of characters." Sabrina said as she passed a sailor scout uniform of white and dark green, along with a golden circlet. "I'm a fan of the show myself, so I have one of every uniform."
"Oh, so this is, um, Sailor Moon cosplay?" Nanka said as her red skirt was swapped out for a dark green one, and her flowing hair was fashioned to have a small bun atop her head.
"Sailor Pluto to be precise. Sabrina was quick to point out with a slight peppiness to her voice.
"The boots are a little tricky to walk in at first…" Nanka noted, looking down at the Sailor Pluto cosplay she was garbed in and gently tugging on the large red ribbon on her chest, "…but I like the ribbon. It actually doesn't look too different from what I usually wear."
Looking towards Sabrina, Nanka was surprised to see another sailor scout uniform floating down, "Oh, do you want me to change clothes already?"
Sabrina didn't respond to Nanka's question, only smiling to herself as she untied her belt and removed her dress within the blink of an eye.
"W-W-Why are you undressing!?" Nanka screamed out, spinning around and covering her hot, scarlet face.
"Oh, you were having so much fun that I simply wished to join in." Nanka heard Sabrina answer, the teenager unable to stop herself blushing brighter as she heard the gym leader's various clothes drop to the floor. "I am unsure as to why you feel the need to look way; I have no problem dressing in front of another girl."
Nanka didn't reply to that, even as steam blew from her ears, her mind a muddled mess of teenage thoughts and feelings that she herself had yet to fully comprehend.
"You can't see how nice we look if you keep your eyes shut." Nanka felt Sabrina's voice tickle her ear and neck.
Opening her orange eyes, Nanka was greeted with her and Sabrina's reflections, the standing mirror showcasing the two sailor scout cosplayers standing just behind one another. Nanka couldn't even stutter out a reply, seeing her face retain a crimson of embarrassment as she took in the sight of the short skirted fair skinned beauty up against her back, said beautiful women playfully smirking at her reaction.
"I-I-I… never realised how, s-short their skirts were." Nanka said as she looked away from her and Sabrina's respective Sailor Pluto and Sailor Mars dressed reflection.
"Perhaps, though it's not much shorter than your usual skirt." Sabrina said with a hum as she pinched the sides of Nanka's skirt, lifting it up but a fraction.
"Sabrinaaa!" Nanka yelped as she forced her skirt down, her immediate panicking response getting a full-blown chuckle out of the psychic.
"Now then… what should we try on next?" Sabrina mused aloud as swiftly lifted off Nanka's shirt in one smooth motion.
"Eek! It's worse when you take off my clothes by hand." Nanka screamed out, her previous embarrassment from the situation coming back to her in full force. "C-c-could I at least dress"-
Nanka's question was cut short when, as she tried to pull away from the overly eager gym leader undressing her, her leg was caught between Sabrina's. With barely a sound, Nanka toppled backwards, with an off-balanced Sabrina quickly falling down on top of her.
With a small blip of light, a tall and lanky teenager with an Abra resting peacefully on his shoulder, teleported into the violet walled room.
"Geez, to think sis thought she could beat us here." The smiling teenager said to his Abra, who nodded rapidly in agreement. "How are we supposed to lose when we can use your teleport to skip right to the gym leader's room? Speaking of which, where is the… Gym…l-leader…"
The dark haired boy's voice trailed off as he noticed the paused gym leader Sabrina dressed in a sleeves white shirt and a tiny red miniskirt, presently atop of the shirtless body of his sister's friend.
"R-Ricky…?" Nanka mumbled, managing to recognise Vicky's older brother and trainer escort despite how she was viewing him upside down.
A silence hung over the room, one that wasn't broken until the teleporters activated, with a young girl rushing out of them.
"Brother! You cheater! You used Abra…" Vicky's voice trailed off as noticed her travelling trainer best friend lying on the floor. "Hey, Nanka! Are you still in your gym battle? Are you supposed to take your shirt"-Ricky swiftly placed his hands over his sister's eyes, much to her annoyance as she shouted, "Hey!"
"S-s-sorry to interrupt! We didn't see anything, nope, nothing! Be back later!" Ricky stammered out, avoiding looking over to Sabrina and Nanka as he began dragging Vicky away.
"I-It's not what you think!?" Nanka cried out, covering her upper body with a very perplexed Jolt.
"I won't tell anyone about your forbidden acts, I swear on our holy lord Arceus!"
"Brother! I can't see! I need to see for my Gym battle!"
"If you want, you can join in too. It's more fun with others."
"T-t-thank you miss gym leader miss, b-but-inappropriate! My sis is here!"
"N-no, i-it's not, we're not… come back!"
Steam blew out of Nanka's ears, the memories continuing over and over again, leading her to bury her face further into her pillow. Her flustered recollections were eventually and abruptly halted by an impatient Jolt leaping onto her back, jolting her out of her thoughts.
"S-sorry, Jolt, I probably shouldn't worry so much about something I can't change." Nanka said to her Pikachu, whom nodded with a firm expression. "W-we should just move on… onwards to adventure!"
Jolt threw up his paws in celebration.
"But first, let's quickly sort out a few TMs."
Jolt dropped his paws as he begun to pout.
Nanka shifted through her TMs, and after much consideration over the past couple days, decided to teach Venom the Nidoqueen the powerful Earthquake technique. Sure, Venom would no longer has a poison move, but having her forget Poison Sting was hardly a huge loss.
Jolt was bored.
"Beauty could do with Reflect, but she might learn something better later on, so is there a need to teach her it?"
Jolt was so, soooo very bored.
"Ice Beam would be handy for dragon types, but who to teach it to?"
Jolt was without words to describe how bored he was.
"Arid would love Swords Dance; it's perfect for him!"
Jolt already had fantastic moves, so he just had to wait as his trainer sat down and shifted through all her TMs.
"Psywave: a psychic attack of varying intensity. It occasionally inflicts heavy damage." Nanka read off of TM46's pink case. "Should I… hmm, should I teach one of the team Psywave?"
"Chhhh…" Jolt mumbled, face flat down against the bed in complete disinterest.
"It can inflict heavy damage…" Nanka mused with an optimistic smile, though it soon lowered with a worried frown, 'But varying and only occasional damage worries me…'
"Hmmm, I'll consider it later." Nanka decided as she dropped the TM back into her bag. "We should go back to adventuring, shouldn't we Jolt?"
Jolt immediately perked up at this, raising his face from the bed with a broad grin and enthusiastically sparking cheeks.
"Although…" Nanka said as she looked towards the Pokécentre's wall mounted clock, "…it's getting late. We should save continuing our journey for tomorrow."
Jolt's face dropped back down against the bed as his joyfully buzzing cheeks stopped.
Very early the next day, Jolt dragged Nanka out of bed, rushing the girl out of Saffron City so quickly that her usually considerably cared for hair was still unbraided. Jolt pushed and pulled the sleepy teenager up hills and past bushes, whom yawned and grumbled the entire way, until the duo stood by a river just outside of Rock Tunnel.
"C-Chu… Chu-Chu…" Nanka mumbled, before emitting a yawn as she sent out her Gyarados, "Could you… Surf us to the Powder Pant?"
Chu-Chu was confused, until Jolt corrected the drowsy Nanka, "Kachu Pi… Pikachu huuu."
Chu-Chu nodded in agreement, grabbing his sleepy princess with his tail and placing her gently onto his back. Captain Jolt naturally hopped onto his head, eagerly pointing towards their next destination.
"Y-yaaayyy, Boody…" Nanka cheered lethargically as, thanks to a successful Confuse Ray and powerful special attacks, her Vulpix defeated the Pokémaniac's Rhyhorn.
Nanka was still half-asleep, a pleasant river ride on her Gyarados having not helped her wake up one bit; it did the opposite in fact. It was in this eye-drooping state that she was challenged to a Pokémon battle by some Zappy-doo searching Pokémaniac; Nanka really couldn't tell what was specifically said.
In any case, she accepted, and was surprised to see Beauty managed to best a rock type with her mostly mumbled attack suggestions.
"Well get ready girlie, you and your pretty fox are going to get licked!" The snickering trainer said as he sent out a tubby pink Pokémon with a humungous toungue. "Although my Lickitung doesn't actually have lick so…"
The wild haired Pokémaniac paused for a moment, thinking out his next witty remark, when he noticed an odd whistling sound. Looking to his opponent, he noticed the sloppily dressed girl was sound asleep, slumbering away as she stood.
"You, uh… shouldn't sleep because… the nightmare, um, uh…" The Pokémaniac started to say, though eventually just yelled out. "Wake up!"
After Beauty's no-hit 'PERFECT' victory over the Pokémaniac, Nanka wondered over to the river and splashed her face with water. After a brief moment waking herself up, Nanka set about tidying herself, sorting her clothes and braiding her hair. Once fully organised, Nanka turned around and set her eyes to the destination she had made plans to visit last night; Kanto's abandoned Power Plant.
"It's strange that an abandoned Power Plant is still producing electricity." Nanka noted, seeing the occasional flash of light through the dusty windows. "Mysterious indeed, right Jolt?"
"Pikaaa!" Jolt cheered, nodding excitedly in agreement.
With a slight heave, Nanka and Jolt pulled open the cracked metal doors of the plant and made their way inside. Dusty windows and the mountainside location led to a generally dark interior, but as earlier noted, lights here and there sparked on and off whilst some continuously glowed softly.
The great amounts of rubble and dust would lead one to assume that the abandoned Power Plant had been untouched, but with the debris and broken machinery parted to the sides in order to leave clear pathways to each doorway, it was evident that others had explored here before. Electricity still pulsed through the building, some machines still cranking and churning whilst others merely generated a hum, a sound soothing to Jolt's ears.
"Jolt, be careful!" Nanka called out to her gleeful Pikachu as he dashed about the area.
Jolt turned to his trainer, a witty retort on the tip of his tongue, but instead he shouted out in alarm, "Kachu, Pik!"
Nanka didn't understand what Jolt had said, but she did understand the ducking motion he performed, and so she imitated it just in time to avoid an angry metal ball flying at her.
"H-hey! Please watch where you're going!" Nanka snapped at the menacingly glaring Magnemite before her.
The Magnemite suddenly looked sad.
The Magnemite which tried to attack her, a one-eyed metal ball Pokémon that hovered with the power of magnetism, was an odd one.
One moment it was angry and aggressive, another moment it was sad and depressed, and then it became happy and carefree. It also appeared to be talking to itself.
Eventually it shifted back into it's aggressive persona, firing a Sonic Boom at Nanka. Sending out Stretchy, Nanka had the Hitmonlee swiftly Mega Punch through the ear-piercing sound waves, knocking the small electric type down.
Catching the bizarre Magnemite with an Ultra Ball, Nanka decided to name the gravity defying Pokémon, Hover. Hover's ball teleported away to Nanka's PC, and so with that brief Pokémon battle out of the way, the curious girl and Pokémon decided to continue exploring the Power Plant.
To cover more ground and to allow them some stretching time, Nanka sent out the rest of her travelling companions, allowing Stretchy, Chu-Chu, Ferry, Beauty and Popper to explore with them. During their exploration, an inquisitive Ferry noticed an unusually large Pokéball. Calling for his trainer's attention, Nanka and Ferry leaned down to further inspect the 'Pokéball.'
The more the trainer and her Lapras stared at the oddball, the more it began to sweat.
"I'm pretty sure this is a"-Nanka was interrupted by the ball releasing an explosive outburst of sound,-"Voltorb!"
As their ears ringed from the Sonic Boom, Ferry knocked the Pokéball imitating electric type away with his Body Slam. The Voltorb recovered quickly though, it's high level meaning it was only slightly hurt by Ferry's strong blow.
With a powerful shot of Water Gun, Ferry proceeded to shoot the fainted Voltorb away, bouncing off the walls like a ball on a snooker table.
"Great job, Ferry; that Voltorb was a lot tougher than I thought they were." Nanka congratulated her Lapras, patting the large sea creature on the head. "I suppose we should be a bit more careful around here with those item imitating Voltorbs about. So long as we don't go to pick up any Pokéball looking objects, we should be fine."
"Urgh…" Nanka groaned, soon spluttering afterwards with a series of coughs as she opened her eyes to thick smoke surrounding her. "W-what… happened..?"
Nanka started to hazily recall what had just occurred, first remembering how she had been walking about the Power Plant with her Pokémon, although Popper the Dugtrio was marching off ahead of them to scout out the area. She was with Chu-Chu and Jolt when… when Voltorbs fell down from above and… a bigger, colour reversed Voltorb. She remembered them all glowing, and then…
"Jolt! Chu-Chu!" Nanka cried out, managing to see through the now departing smoke to see her injured Pokémon, fainted from taking the full force of several self-destructs.
As Nanka watched her Pokémon heal up, she pondered to herself, 'Should we continue investigating the Power Plant if it's so dangerous?'
Numerous Voltorbs and even their evolved form of Electrodes disguising themselves as Pokéballs was surprising enough, but for the exploding electric types to fall down from atop the various machinery and engines… that was something that not even the studiously observant Popper had taken into account. Popper and Nanka's other Pokémon had been quick to find her, helping take her and their fainted teammates out as fast as can be; just in case any more hot tempered Voltorbs were prepared to roll up and blow up on them again.
Now the group waited in the Pokémon Centre for Jolt and Chu-Chu to heal up, some having returned to the PC, others waiting patiently on the seats.
With a heavy sigh, Nanka walked over to sit with her other Pokémon, 'It's too dangerous… we'll have to come back some other time.'
Looking to distract herself from her worries, Nanka looked around to see what her companions were doing, "Hey, Melody; What's that you've got there?"
The Jigglypuff jumped up in surprise, attempting to hide the magazine she had been reading behind her.
Curious, Nanka leaned to the left, then when Melody spun around to continue hiding the magazine, Nanka darted the other way to catch a glimpse.
The magazine's cover was of bikini clad beauties and swimmers, relaxing on a beach. "A… swimsuit magazine?"
"J-Jigglyyy!" Melody shook her body in denial, though this loosened her grip, allowing Nanka to snatch the magazine away from her Pokémon.
As her cute and naïve trainer flicked through the pages of the adult oriented magazine, sighting the numerous glamour shots of gorgeous ladies, Melody felt the pretty pink colour drain from her body.
"M-Melody, could it be, t-that you…" Nanka started to say, staring at her sweating, colourless Jigglypuff, "…want to go to the beach?"
Melody was silent for but a moment, but as relief washed over her and colour was restored her to body, she cried out cheerfully, "J-Jig! Puff-Puff, Jigglll!"
So it was decided that, in order to relax after their explosive ordeal at the Power Plant, the group would head to Fuchsia Beaches for some fun in the sun. In no rush, it was a two day trek from the Rock Tunnel to Fuchsia City, giving some time for Nanka to ponder a few things.
As their feet touched down on the warm sand, Nanka looked over to the nearby sales shop and mused aloud, "Hmmm, maybe I should treat myself to a new swimsuit?"
"Jig, Jig, Jigglypuff!" Melody cheered, overjoyed at the thought of seeing her cute trainer in all kinds of swimwear.
Unfortunately for Melody, there was a hurdle to overcome before she would ever get to see Nanka try on any new swimwear.
"Too dear… too dear… definitely too much…" Nanka mumbled away as she walked along the rows of swimsuits and bikinis, not so much looking at them, but rather the price tags. "Why are they all so expensive?"
The poor village girl looked up from the price tags with a frown, a frown soon accompanied by a blush as she gazed at the revealing water clothes on sale, "And why are they all so… risque?"
Melody sighed with disappointment, wondering away from her stingy trainer, saddened at the thought of never seeing the small but pretty girl adorn an attire that would get her Pokémon heart pounding.
In the midst of this disappointment though, something magical caught Melody's eye, a simply divine bikini with few zero's on its tag, "Jiggly! Pu, Pu, Pu, Jiggly!"
"Oh, Melody!" Nanka called out as she wondered over to where her Jigglypuff was standing, "Did you find a swimsuit for me-eeeek!"
"Puff-Puff!" Melody swooned over the minuscule white bikini top and black bikini bottom, her pupils forming hearts as she imagined Nanka in them.
"T-T-T-this isss-I, eeep…" Nanka stuttered as she gazed at the admittedly cheap garments, but one where the very sight of it had her red in the face.
The assemble was labelled as the 'Bravo Bikini', with most of the clothing going to its additional white thigh-high boots and black elbow length gloves. The bikini itself was much shorter in fabric, with a black bikini bottom barely as big as her hand, held together by admittedly cute ribbons at the sides. The white bikini top was equally skimpy, effectively two white triangles tipped at the very top to ascencuiate the chest, held once more by small ribbon.
"I-i-it's the only one, I-I could affo…" Nanka began to stutter out, her trembling hand reaching for her wallet, only for every imagined scene of herself in such a garment to cause her to heat up. "Unacceptable! I can't!"
After declining to purchase a new swimwear, they very memory of that last 'Bravo Bikini' still causing her to blush, Nanka changed into her usual blue swimsuit and headed out onto the beach with her travelling companions. Throughout the day, Nanka would rotate her team members, allowing each of her Pokémon time to enjoy the beach. Keraton and Arid burrowed holes in the sand; Dusty perched atop a sandcastle that Devourer had sweetly crafted for her, whilst Jolt surfed against Chu-Chu.
Surprisingly, the serious duo of Popper and Ribbon were the troublemakers of the day, with their sand trenches leading to open sand warfare.
Several hours had passed and Nanka was pleased to have given a chance for each of her Pokémon to have some beach-time fun. It also allowed her the chance to introduce Hover the Magnemite to everyone; he was still an odd Pokémon.
As the sun began to lower, Nanka looked out to the sparkling sea, its sunny orange waves stirring her sense of adventure.
"Chu-Chu!" Nanka called out to her Gyarados, her expression clearly displaying her eagerness. "Would you like to go for a bit of a swim with me?"
Nanka removed her dry lips from the flute, blue in the face and gasping for air. Meanwhile, Devourer woke up with a pained headache.
Even out on the evening sea, trainers were eager to battle. Swimmers shouted out to her atop her Gyarados, challenging her to a Pokémon battle.
As the Swimmer's Poliwag Hypnotised her Weepinbell for the eleventh time in a row, Nanka regretted accepting the challenge.
"Go on, Hover! It's your first trainer battle!" Nanka cheered as she sent out her Magnemite.
Hover looked at it's Goldeen foe, staring briefly at the red and white horned fish, before turning to face Nanka with a glum expression.
"Hover, look out!" Nanka warned her Magnemite as the Goldeen leapt out of the water to attack.
With an angry eye and a fierce screech, Hover zapped the attacking Goldeen unconscious. As the Golden's fainted body hit the water, Hover's expression turn to a cheery one; the floating electric type celebrating it's win with a dance.
"I just love your ride!" A waving Swimmer called out to Nanka.
Noticing the woman in the sea, Nanka waved back from atop Chu-Chu's back, "Thank you very much, miss!"
The Swimmer continued to smile as her Poliwag swam in front of her, "Hey! Can I have it if I win?"
"Wha-no! Absolutely not!" Nanka replied, gripping onto her Gyarados' crown a little bit tighter.
"Chu-Chu, Pikachu!" Jolt snapped, with whatever he said causing the Surfing Chu-Chu to smile joyously.
"The perfect sea, the perfect breeze…" Nanka said to herself as a gentle gust of wind blew by, her long green hair softly flying up as she listened to the sound of the waves.
The girl in her one-piece swimsuit was enjoying every bit of her peaceful sea faring voyage, courtesy of her Surf knowing Gyarados. Also atop of the sea serpent was Jolt, naturally seating himself on Chu-Chu's head as if he were a captain of a ship, and Melody, who was content to relax on Nanka's smooth legged lap. Technically Hover was also out of his Pokéball with them… but it was of course floating beside them, rather than seated on Chu-Chu.
Stars twinkled above as Hover struck a trainer's Horsea with a well-aimed Thundershock. "Great work, Hover!"
Hover spun around cheerfully, then stopped abruptly as a gloomy expression took over it's happy features, followed by it's eye glowing red with rage. As Hover begun to talk to itself as per usual, a language of buzzes and screeches with various pitches for each of it's personalities, Nanka and Jolt couldn't help but chuckle.
Suddenly, an intense light burst forth from Hover's body, illuminating the night sky and sea.
Hover's shining body spread out, two other round Magnemite shapes forming beneath. With a frazzle of electricity and a trio of screeching, Hover's evolution into Magneton was complete.
"Hover, you evolved!" Nanka cheered, quickly noticing the three different expressions on each of Hover's connected Magnemite bodies. "An this kind of explains a lot."
Hover looked back with a cheery, fierce and depressed looking eye; though for the first time in it's life, it expressed all three expressions at the same time.
The stars out here are beautiful…" Nanka mentioned as she lay atop the Surfing Chu-Chu, staring up at the night sky and enjoying the gentle rocking motions, "Hold on! Stars!"
Nanka bolted upright, looking around herself at the beautiful but shadowed sea around her, "H-h-how far did we sail out!?"
As the swimsuit garmented Nanka gazed across the vast and dark sea, an icy wind blew by from the west, causing the girl to hug herself for warmth, "An wh-why is it so cold!?"
Nanka sighed with relief as she spotted a white, cavernous chunk of land ahead and shouted out, "Land ahoy!"
Once they were close enough, Jolt leapt from Chu-Chu and touched down onto the ground, but was surprised by how he immediately started to sink into the cold and wet cotton surface. Nanka couldn't help but giggle as she watched her Pikachu, unfamiliar with snow, hop about the place to avoid sinking into it.
Nanka was still giggling when another icy gust of wind blew by, reminding her of the wet swimwear she was currently wearing, "Oooh; this is too cold, even for me. Chu-Chu, could you form a changing room please?"
Always happy to help his princess, Chu-Chu coiled a tail around his trainer, obscuring her from sight. A couple minutes later, Nanka had changed into her regular dry clothes, though her hair was still wet and unbraided.
Nanka had not seen snow all too often, Pallet Town being fairly warm all year, but it had been a delight on the one or two days each year it would fall down. Aside from Chu-Chu though, her other Pokémon seemed to have experienced snow even less.
Jolt and Melody were baffled by it, but quickly came to enjoy the cold substance once they began a snowball fight. Devourer crafted snow food, which he had to do swiftly as Slothful kept eating much of it, whilst Hover was trying to somehow dodge the snowflakes gently falling down. Nanka was happy to join in with each game; skipping over to throw snowballs, dodge snowflakes, craft snow food and give herself brain freeze from eating said snow food.
"T-t-the snow was f-f-fun, wasn't it Jolt?" Nanka asked her curled up Pikachu as they sat in front the weak campfire, her teeth chattering from her snow food buffet, "It is v-very cold though."
Nanka and her Pokémon were having a blast in the snow, but as the night wore on, it grew colder and colder, even more than the fairly cold-resistant Nanka could bear. Eventually they were forced to retreat into the small islands caves; which were only slightly warmer thanks to a lack of wind.
"K-K-K-chuuu!" Jolt sneezed, before further cuddling up to Nanka as he rested on her lap, still stubbornly refusing to ever venture back into a Pokéball.
The next day, Nanka and Jolt begun venturing deeper into and exploring what they assumed were the south-of-Kanto Seafoam Islands… because they wanted too; not due to being lost of course.
"Jolt, did you know that G-Man hates the cold?" Nanka said to Jolt, distracting herself from the fact that they were hopelessly lost. "He would try to make a snowball to throw at me, but then drop it because his hands got too cold, even with gloves on. Then he would start running away the moment I made a snow-"
"Gyaaahhh!" Nanka screamed, as she found herself lifted off the ground by large orange pincers.
"Kachu!" Jolt shouted out, sparks buzzing as he prepared to take down the large water type crab that was running off with Nanka, only for the Kingler to hold his flailing hostage in the way of any attack. "Kaaaa, Ch!"
"J-Jolt!" Nanka cried out for help, wiggling about as much as she could within the firm pincers of the Kingler. "M-maybe I can…"
With a fair bit of effort, Nanka managed to unzip her yellow shoulder bag, with her Pokéballs cascading out of it. Jolt immediately got the plan, grabbing the first falling Pokéball he could and tossing it over the Kingler's head. Out from the ball came Devourer, leading the Kingler to be trapped on opposite sides by both a super effective Pikachu and Weepinbell, unable to use Nanka as a shield for both attacks.
After her close shave with a hungry hunting Kingler, Nanka decided it would be safer to avoid the bottom floor of the island.
"Thank you back there." Nanka said as Jolt and Devourer followed along behind her. "That Kingler came out of no-"
"Gyaaahhh!" Nanka screamed as she fell through a hole in the ground.
Nanka continued to scream as she fell down two of the island's cavern layers, dropping into the icy water on the bottom area she was hoping to avoid.
"Thank you, Slothful." Nanka said with a low tired tone and a forced smile as her Snorlax pushed the boulders away with Strength.
Nanka, now in her nightgown, continued to try and dry her hair out by the barely surviving campfire, "This has really not been our day."
Jolt nodded, trying to dry his fur out; a result of him and Devourer both having fallen down the same hole as Nanka shortly after her. Jolt wasn't too pleased by it, but he received the icy splash of water far better than the grass type Devourer.
"That's strange…" Nanka noted as Chu-Chu dove into the now calm but still chilly body of water, "…the water's calm now."
Nanka and Jolt hopped aboard Chu-Chu and the trio began to Surf along the water, looking for an exit. They had no luck noticing an exit, but did notice the plummeting drop in temperature.
"P-p-piiii…" Jolt moaned, producing a few sparks from his cheeks for warmth.
"W-w-why is it-t getting even c-colder?" Nanka stuttered out from constant shivering.
Nanka shivered as a large icicle winged bird, perched high above on frosted rocks, stared down at her with piercing red eyes, "A-Arti-Articuno!"
Nanka was both amazed at the sight of the rarely seen Legendary before her… and terrified, 'Articuno is said… said to appear before travellers… to spirit them away.'
Nanka continued to stare at the glistening bird, frozen in place, whilst Chu-Chu trembled before the overwhelming power he felt emanating from the mythical bird. Meanwhile, Jolt grinned eagerly.
Nanka continued to stare at Articuno, transfixed by it's chilling aura, her thoughts fading to darkness… that was until she heard a crackling sound, with sparks of electricity lighting up her darkening sight.
"J-Jolt! Stop!" Nanka cried out, grabbing hold of her battle ready Pikachu and preventing him from lunging at the flying ice type before them. "We are ever so sorry Legendary Articuno sir, miss, sirmiss. We'll just be,-"
Articuno screeched, flapping it's wings and whipping up a raging snowstorm in an instance.
"Running for our lives!" Nanka screamed, throwing herself onto Chu-Chu's back, who started swimming away as fast as he could.
The Kingler shimmied before the running girl, foaming with anger and hunger as he raised his pincer, readying a strong Vicegrip.
A critical Thundershock zapped the Kingler, frying him until he fell down to the ground, the fleeing girl crying out as she ran past, "Sorry! We're in a hurry!"
The Kingler's day got worse as a rampaging Articuno swiftly flew by in pursuit of the girl and her Pokémon, freezing him solid along the way.
"There's the exit!" Nanka shouted out with delight as she and her Pokémon ran towards the opening, its warm rays of sunlight inviting them to the outside.
Then the entrance was frozen over by Articuno's Ice Beam… then Articuno landed before it.
"Nooo!" Nanka exclaimed, turning around to run the other way, but not before sending out her Snorlax. "Slothful, use Strength or something!"
Slothful barely had chance to taken into account that she was face-to-face with an enraged Legendary; she just grabbed the nearest boulder and threw it at Articuno. The boulder struck, but Articuno was barely fazed, the large rock projectile merely serving as a minor distraction.
Nanka and her companions leapt out of the Seafoam Island caves; wet, cold and exhausted. Yet each of them forced themselves up off the ground, grabbed whatever they could find, and began blocking up the exit. Only once blocked did they allow themselves to drop down, too tired to move, but enough energy to laugh in relief.
"Piiikaaa! Chhh, Pikachu!" Jolt complained to Nanka and his fellow teammates; having been carried away from an exciting battle against Articuno of all Pokémon.
The group just stared back at Jolt in disbelief; even Chu-Chu thought his captain trying to take on a mythical being was a foolhardy idea, and one they had no intention of doing… if they could avoid it.
"Are you on vacation too?" The young girl asked as she bobbed up and down in the water, floating thanks to an inner tube. "Is that why you're in a gown? Did you fall asleep out here?"
"Y-yeah…" Nanka replied, too tired to explain. "…s-say, you wouldn't, ummm, happen to know what day it is, would you?"
"Friday!" The Inner Tube Girl replied as her Tentacool, Horsea and Seel swam on up to her.
'We were in those caves for a whole day!' Nanka screamed in her head.
Nanka and Jolt were riding atop Chu-Chu, whom was slowly surfing through the sea, when a Bird-keeper on a nearby platform called out, "Hey! Want to battle?"
Nanka stood up, her balance for some reason shaky, as she called back, "No thank you! Maybe laaaa-eek!"-
Nanka yelped as she and Jolt found themselves flung onto the wooden platform, followed by a weakened Chu-Chu crashing down beside them.
"I'm sorry, Chu-Chu." Nanka apologized as she stroked the head of her feverish Gyarados. "You've been working so hard... too hard."
"Gyarrr." Chu-Chu replied weakly, a shamed look on his face as he was returned to his Pokéball.
"You just get some rest now, Chu-Chu." Nanka said to Chu-Chu's Pokéball, before turning to Jolt. "Well, Jolt... looks like we'll be swimming the rest of the way ourselves."
Swimming alongside Jolt, who took to the water naturally and with joy, Nanka was still challenged to the odd battle by swimming trainers.
"My boyfriend gave me these big pearls!" The Beauty said, both to strike up friendly banter and to show off. "Don't suppose you've hooked yourself a lover?"
"Nope." Nanka stated; struggling to feign interest as the subject of romance got brought up.
"There sure are a lot of Tentacools." Nanka noted, looking around at the many jellyfish Pokémon on Route 20. "Oh, one's coming this way. How nice!"
As the friendly and wiggly Tentacool got closer, Melody suddenly burst out of her Pokéball, proceeding to shoo the Tentacool away, "Ji! Ji!"
Melody knew how that scenario could have gone and so turned to her cute, innocent, swimsuit clad trainer, and smiled
"We... we..." Nanka gasped as she pulled herself out of the water and onto the sandy land. "We made it!"
"Pikachu!" Jolt cheered as he hopped onto land, shaking off the water from his body.
"Now let's get to that Pokécentre, heal up, and..." Nanka threw her arms up with enthusiasm, but struggled to hold them up for long, "...rest."
Jolt did not argue as he and Nanka sluggishly walked forth.
A/N: There we go; the latest chapter of Nanka's Pokémon Miiverse Adventure for your reading enjoyment. Now let's fill the end notes with some info on the chapter and then I can go back to playing SNK Heroines and Octopath Traveler.
For starters, there is the Sabrina and Nanka flash back scene, which was a fair bit different in the original version. When I originally made these chapters, I of course had never made the recent bonus chapter, so the flashback scene now contains an extract of the bonus chapter rather than it's own (and perhaps more nautrally flowing) scene of Sabrina dressing/undressing Nanka. The events of Ricky and Vicky walking in on them though, that is the exact same.
Hover is Nanka's latest Pokémon, caught by visiting the Power Plant, a destination chosen by my old readers back when this was interactive. I like Magnemite, and whilst it's somewhat redundant in Pokémon Yellow given your starter, I enjoyed Hover's split personality character. It was caught at a level where it should have evolved already, so I came up with split personality idea based on that and of course, Magneton's three bodies. I also got to show off more of Melody's perverted character, even throwing in a fun little reference to the Bravely series of video games with the Bravo Bikini.
Chu-Chu getting sick was an interesting development and one not really affected by reader's decisions... at least entirely. I wanted a reason to keep Nanka bound to Cinnabar Island for a while, as well as to push Chu-Chu aside for a while; he's so strong that it made a lot of fights in the game stupidly easy. A self-handicap as it were, but one I feel I found an effective way to implement into the story.
So yeah, that entails Act 7 of the Director's Cut of Nanka's Pokémon Miiverse Adventure; hope you had a good time reading it!
