MINGLE | new year's carnifestival!



NEW YEAR'S FESTIVAL

If you thought you've memorized every bit of the island so far, think again! Seemingly overnight, a huge festival has appeared in the plains, complete with vendors, games, contests, and of course, huge rides to scream your lungs out. Grab your friends and have a fun start to the new year!

Bobbing for apricorns and games - Try your luck at snatching a fresh apricorn and win a pokeball version for your efforts! The water's pretty icy at this time, so you might want to find a way to warm your face afterwards. There's also ring toss, Squirtle gun range, and a strange fishing game where you only ever seem to fish out Magikarp for 500 poke a try. Win big to earn plushies and masks of your favorite Pokemon!

Haunted house - It's a place brimming with Gastlys and Gengars eager to pop out of the walls and scare the living daylights out of you. Enter if you dare!

Ferris wheel - Take a break in the Ferris wheel and get a full view of the carnival. Also a fine place to pick up bizarre dates if you're desperate to kiss someone at midnight.

Food and fortune - Cotton candy, popcorn, caramel-covered berries, and everything else to get your weekly intake of salt and sugar. Stop by the vendors for a range of carnival cuisine from all the regions, then check out the Alakazam fortune teller on the way out to get your new year's fortune. Too bad his fortunes seem to read like bad fortune cookies.

Tunnel of Luvdisc - Need a private moment? Hop into a boat and cruise along the Tunnel of Luvdisc with your darling, together with the lights down low...and a river packed with energetic Luvdisc who seem eager to splash water and sometimes flip onto the boat. Just shove them back if one lands in your lap.

Gyarados roller coaster - It's the highlight of the festival! This towering coaster has all the terrifying drops and turns you want in a roller coaster, but with a tacky-looking Gyarados car as the ride. Don't let that fool you into thinking it's a ride for the younger kids, though.

There's a lot more to see than what's listed here - list your own event too!

[Haha, wow, you're pretty ancient then huh, no wonder no girls wanna come over!!!

Ethan's lips jerk down in the worst attempt at not grinning and he shrugs, shifting on his feet.]
Just the loser having to wait for chicks to come up and ask him to go in the tunnel with them. And here I thought you'd have a girlfriend or something!
tidaldrum: and listen well jackass (01. listen here)

["Former" for like, what, five minutes??? He don't owe you anything, Gym Leader.] So basically, what you're saying is...

[a Big, Dramatic pause]

No one wants to date you.
tidaldrum: just like your diiiick (11. it's seriously no big deal)

[Wow, picking on his height now? Really? So mature, Green. So mature.]

Thirteen, thanks. Do you treat everyone who's won your badge like this? I'm so glad I never went back to Viridian after my pal and I wiped your team.
tidaldrum: is your typical boy who hates winning as much as he hates losing (07. the champion of johto)

[W o w someone smells bitter. Kind of reminds him of Silver, which is a recently acquired bad taste.]

I'm just joking! Geez, I thought you'd get over the whole League thing after a few years. [Ethan pauses, thinking, then grins.] Red was easy to beat too, you know? I'm really surprised. I thought he'd be a lot tougher.

Maybe. He left after I won, so I thought he'd gone down the mountain.
