[PST] Icky

The four of them always knew that their trainer was a bit odd. For one, she seemed to express herself in the oddest way. They have never been able to figure out what she was thinking because she is the same person who is able to fawn over you with a face more blank than a layer of freshly fallen snow.

Speaking of snow, this day was the first snow the the years. All of her pokemon, mainly Static and Avery. The skiddo and minum duo were the first to bolt out of the household to play in the snow. Sadly, they didn’t get far due to their trainer’s request for Sumi to pull them back into the cozy farmhouse. It was easy for the bulky throh to pluck the two smaller pokemon from the snow and deposit them back in front of the blonde trainer who had proceeded to fuss over them for the smallest thing.

“It’s cold outside,” she worried as she pulled scarves over each of her pokemon. She knew that they would be eager to play with the powdery snow that now blanketed their lands.  Each  scarf was accompanied by a matching woolen hat, sweater and socks. Additional layers of clothing were added by the fussing trainer before all four of her pokemon vaguely resembled multicolored living marshmallows. It turns out that she did not realize that the pokemon she had in her care were more resilient than humans.

Satisfied with her work, she allowed her cresh to leave the home, closing the door softly behind them. Chief, the ever shy golisopod, was tasked with making sure they were brought in before supper was done. The poor arthropod could only watch as the extra  layers that were pushed upon them were quickly shed once the other three were sure their trainer was gone.

Once they layers were shed, Avery and Static were off to cause trouble. They were quick to organise a snowball fight, initiated first by static who lobbed a tiny snowball at the red face of Sumi. The minum soon learned that that was a bad idea since the red pokemon gained an almost evil look before he leaned down to paw together a massive snowball.

Needless to say the duo didn’t stick around long to see the completion of such a snowball. They ducked behind Cheif who was constructing a snow creature. With her already large figure now still bulked up with the many layers their odd human friend had stuffed her in she was the perfect hiding spot from the competitive throh. It was clear that she was amused by since an odd clicking sound can be heard from her, the only warning they got before she stepped aside to reveal a massive ball of snow speeding at them.

Yelps could be heard from the two of them before they were buried under the snow. Muffled sounds could be heard before the pair were able to pop their heads up from the mound they were encased in. The trouble making duo shot the larger two pokemon a challenging glare before bursting from the snow pile. Oh, it was on.

The next day Nisha found herself looking after three very sick pokemon with running noses and watery eyes. She didn’t understand what she did wrong. She had encased all four of them in multiple layers of clothing and yet it was only Chief who had escaped this sudden flare up of the common cold. Oh well, perhaps her horrible cooked veritable soup will help cure them.
