[Lithra Trease]

Balanced precariously on her head sat Bell. She had discovered last time on the beach that he didn't like sand and, after spending a long time grooming it out of his fur, Lithra decided this was not the place for him. But Lithra wasn't going to leave him in the dorm room all day, especially since Karin hadn't been around for the past week, and Bell had made it clear he didn't want to be back in his pokeball. So here Lithra was with a Cottonee as a hat.

"Alright, here we go!" She cheered up at Bell, spreading a cloth blanket out onto the dunes as she situated her bag and Bell onto the sheet. It looked like Bell could tolerate this. "Let's bring everyone else out too now!" Emptying her active pokeballs, her small team filled up the beach and the blanket. Mira, Tara, Chip, and Leche took in their surroundings and gave all sorts of remarks. "Let's enjoy the day, guys," Lithra giggled as she stroked Leche's side.

[Lithra Trease]

With a flutter of his working and damaged wings, Chip hopped up onto Leche's back as the Ponyta whinnied happily. Leche dashed off into the dunes, keeping her and her rider away from the waves as the two Fire types enjoyed the day. Lithra chuckled as she settled onto the blanket, wondering how her little Chip and the newly aquired Leche had bonded so quickly. "They're too cute," Lithra said as she let Bell snuggle up to her.

As for Mira and Tara, the two young pokemon were venturing to the sea's edge. The Sandile occasionally kicked water at Mira, causing the Bulbasaur to growl in complaint. "Play nicely," Lithra scolded as she watched the waves. That's when she saw it. And she wasn't going to let the same thing that happened last time at the beach happen again now. "Mira! Watch out!" the girl warned, pointing over at the approaching Mantyke. "Hit it before it gets you or Tara!"

A gust of wind blew around Mira as she summoned leaves around her. They shot forward at the Mantyke, stopping the attacking pokemon's momentum. Tara, not to be outdone, also attacked as she jumped into the air and bit down hard on the Water type. Lithra could hear Leche run over in order to help with the battle.

"Don't worry, guys, I've got it!" Lithra said as she stood up and threw a pokeball at the Mantyke. "Maybe we can get a good trade for this one."
