“Great! Then here’s the plan,” at three-to-one even if Bea wasn’t enthused, she’d been thoroughly outvoted. But Esther wasn’t in the habit of strong-arming people into fun, so if Bea wasn’t to skip then the option was available to her. Esther was prepared with a few tasks to let the group relax before their next big excursion.
Esther projected holographic map of Ambrette Town, a favorite feature of hers these days, and zoomed in on one of the Town’s largest landmarks—the Hotel Ambrette.
“I’m gonna swing by the Hotel and book us in for the night, in the meantime why don’t you guys prowl the town and try to find some food?” Breakfast had been light, enough to chase away that peckish feeling, but far from a filling meal. They’d need to be well-fed and rested before they went cave-diving. To those aims, Esther’s fingers splayed across the hologram and zoomed into a panoramic view of the city. She quickly pointed at several restaurants and locations and marked them on her map.
“Le Maillon: they do lunch, dinner, and drinks! Kalosian food mostly, but they have international and fusion dishes, dining bars, and the price isn’t too high.
“Le Panier de Crabes: it’s exactly what it sounds like, plenty of seafood. Mostly Krabby and Corphish dishes with sides that looks pretty good and served with…wine? Huh…Well, I don’t see anything about the price, but seafood tends to be more expensive.
“Restaurant Chirstopher Coutan…ceau…? Oh! This place is fancy and…expensive! Gah! Nope!”
“Saveurs Dans L’R: Ohhh~ this place is cute ~
It’s a little snack bar and grill! The food looks great, the price isn’t bad, the reviews are all nice…I think this one might be my favorite!”Of course, Esther wasn’t done yapping yet. The Oblivian quickly rattled off a series of restaurants in the area, hardly leaving room for anyone else to sneak in a word: La Ville Blanche, Bistronome La Rochelle, Les Flots, Le Café Du Nord, Le Comptoir Saofe, Au Steak house, Lee Bistrot d’La Chaine, Le p’tit Amiral, Peezzeria Nonno Leo, Creperie des Dames….
“You guys can look into them more, pick someplace nice, ya? Ohh! Lookie here, they’ve even got a sushi places—Le Sakura, Hattori…Ahhh, you guys had better pick good! I’ll message you the coordinates of these places so you can find ‘em.
Esther fingered a few comments into her poketch and listened for the beep of a notification from her friend’s devices.
“I shouldn’t take too long at the hotel, so don’t take too long deciding, ya? After we eat, we’ll head over to the fossil lab and then from there to Glittering Cave. Sounds good?”

July 8th, Friday - Ambrette Town, Kalos Region
Beatrice Esperanza Lazlo
Beatrice froze for a moment as she heard Esther's reply. While the other girl was quite casual about it, the Paldean felt a massive wave of relief sweep over her. "Thank you very much! I will go pack then be right back." She exclaimed before running off to where she left her stuff. This could be the first step in helping the girl find what she's looking for.
-----
Ambrette Town, the most populated town in the Kalos region. As the group arrived, Beatrice looked to be lost in thought, her eyes glued to her phone. "Hmm, based on our prior location, I think we could have made it here in give or take 3 hours if we rode on Clyde." The girl mumbled to herself. She had calculated the distance they traveled from the farm to Ambrette and divided it by her Cyclizar's speed, reaching an estimate. "Then again, he can only carry 2 people at once, 3 if we squeeze a bit. The longer trip wasn't bad either. It felt pretty nice, sleeping out under the stars with the others." She added. Due to the girl's mind being elsewhere, she had missed what her traveling companions had been discussing. That is until Esther spoke up, causing the Paldean to quickly turn towards the other girl. "...Huh?"
Despite missing most of the conversation, Beatrice quickly caught up with what the group's plan for the day. The girl simply nodded along as Esther explained their course of action, talking way too much for anyone else to give any input. At the end of her breakdown on local restaurants, Esther gave the group their task, finding a good place to have a meal in. "Finding a good place huh... Hmm, I usually don't look too deep into where I eat so I don't know how much of what I can say will be pertinent." The Paldean said out loud. "But I can go take a look around, I'll see what I can find." With that said, the coordinates for the named places were soon sent to everyone's phones.
As soon as the notification rang, Beatrice's phone suddenly flew out of her hand. The device sprouted familiar plasma limbs as Wattz took flight, eager to get their little hunt started. "Hey slow down Wattz! Don't fly too far!" Beatrice yelled out as she began chasing after her pokemon.

Oh my! Well, wasn’t she an agile Bibarel? For all that Beatrice had joined their little entourage, the Paldean girl was more reserved. Rather than talk to the group, she appeared more comfortable muttering to herself about something or another. Esther couldn’t judge, she hadn’t been the most talkative while they’d been traveling; however, the detached-ness of their fourth party-member created cause for concern. Was she really going to be alright in a large town like this…by herself?
Esther’s eyes followed Beatrice’s departure. Once the Paldean vanished into the crowded town, the Oblivian turned to the remaining Kalosians. She pursed her lips to speak but—suddenly thinking better of it—instead gave the Kalosian duo a helpless shrug, followed by a playful wink, and finally a cheery wave.
“Cya in a bit, ya? Ciao Bella darlings~!”
Roller-skates clicked against the ground as Esther kicked off and sent herself zipping into Ambrette Town.
Deep breaths—Esther’s lungs filled with the briny, fishy scent of a morning’s catch. Set beside the sea, Ambrette’s culinary scene was—expectedly—heavy on seafood dishes. One could only imagine what dishes would be served: Magikarp Soufflé? Finneon Ratatouille? Remoraid Rochambeau? Those were totally dishes, right? She was certain she’d seen something along those lines on the internet and they sure sounded Kalosian!
Whatever! The point was—if fish food was on the menu, then freshness was guaranteed!
Esther wiped her drool and checked her map. The hotel was just around the corner and foot-traffic was sparse.
“Alright team! You can come on out but stick close, we’re on the move!”
The pokéballs on Esther’s waist popped—POP! POP! POP! Pyrrha, Kasriel, and L’ Basseau emerged in quick succession—that was about who she expected but…Esther brushed a finger against Houndour’s Pokéball. “Why don’t you come out, get some fresh air?”
When the Pokéball remained un-moving, Esther slumped in defeat. Houndour had turned into something of a recluse after she’d learned the way to Cyllage was blocked. To be so close to her home and then turned away…the Dark-type’s mood could only be imagined.
“It won’t be long…”
As Esther expected, book-ins hadn’t taken long. In just a few minutes four rooms had been booked and, spotting Esther’s Pokémon, the receptionist had referred her the hotel’s policy on Pokémon. They were allowed to roam the hotel, but there were several common and uncommon sense caveats. Pokémon like Steelix and Golem couldn’t be released inside or on floors above the ground floor—one idiot had apparently released his Aggron on the third floor and the near half-ton creature had fallen two stories, straight through the floors. Luckily, no one was hurt…
Esther passed the hotel’s rules forward to her group—along with their room numbers—and decided to take her Pokémon out for a treat. They had been well-behaved and patient while she dealt with the bookings and the Oblivian wanted to reinforce positive behaviors. It was a hot summer’s day so maybe she could find an ice-cream shop somewhere in town…

Crèmes Glacèes—Kalosian for ice cream. Probably. Most likely. Esther was pretty sure… She hadn’t run it through a translator or anything but like…wasn’t it obvious?
A touch of pink to wet her lips, then Esther turned her attention from the chalkboard menu and its summer-time drawings: a sun, a bee Pokémon she didn’t recognize, and a meadow of Flabebe beneath them all. The board was cute but… beyond the sub-headers: the first for crèmes glacèes and the second for sorbets, Esther couldn’t read any of it. She could guess at the more obvious ones: chocolat was chocolate and banane was probably banana, but Amarena? Speculoos? Stracciatella? Yea, she was at a loss.
If only she had a convenient translator…
“Whisper of the renegade…” Esther sucked in a gleeful breath and whipped around with a wide grin. A familiar voice announced the arrival of her translator. “Azumi!”
“Sightseeing? No, maybe later. I wanted to treat my Pokémon first and what would be better than ice cream? Just one problem, I can’t read Kalosian! Translate for me? Please?” Esther pressed her palms together in pious supplication, just a hint of tremble on her lips as she turned on the charm.

Azumi smiled at the warm welcome from Esther and even seemed happy to be asked to translate. However, a quick look around allowed her to identify the menu inside with the Galarian translation. “That’s actually a splendid idea, mind if we join you?” The Kalosian woman walked over and held the door open for Esther and Nana with her Flabebe. Once inside, Azumi pointed at the menu displayed above the front counter. “Oh well it seems my translation won`t be necessary, the menu is in Galarian here.”
Azumi took a long thoughtful look at the options, with Nana mimicking her, followed by the smaller fairy types. All seven looked at the menu before Azumi smiled and nodded. “I`ll get something simple, Strawberry and I got a feeling Nana and the others feel the same.”
With a firm nod from the rest of the team, the future law enforcer placed her order and made her way to a nearby booth. She settled in, checking her phone while waiting for Esther and company while Nana tried to find a spot where the Flabebe weren`t crowding her.

“Ah?” So there was. Just as Azumi had stated, just through the doors of ‘Ernest Glacier’ a large digital display repeated the menu with Galarian translations beneath each item. “That’s great! Okay, just a minute—let me just…”
The store’s interior featured very open-concept design; a few pillars provided structural stability, but the floorplan otherwise eschewed walls and obstructions of any kind. The largest, center-most pillar that supported the building was surrounded by a ring of counter-cum-ice-cream-display besides which was what Esther had been looking for—a sign.
’“No Pokémon above 2m allowed.’
Perfect!
Without reservation, Esther released the rest of her Pokémon into the store. “Alright ya rapscallions,” a crisp clap drew their attention. “You’ve been darlings and I know that debacle with the Yanma was rough on you, so I say you’ve all earned some frozen treats! The nice lady over there will help you sample the flavors and then you can pick out what ice-creams you want. Two scoops MAXIMUM, you hear me? Alright, now skedaddle!”
With varying levels of enthusiasm, Esther’s Pokémon did just that and the Oblivian herself followed behind notepad in-hand. Although Esther was familiar with a few of her Pokémon’s tastes, this was a prime opportunity to shore-up the gaps in her knowledge.
It took a few minutes of flavor testing, but soon Esther had a few extra pages of notes and her Pokémon had placed their orders. Another 7 orders meant it would be a few minutes before the worker completed their order, so Esther and her Pokémon joined Azumi in the seats just outside the ice cream shop. Once she’d settled, Esther looked askance at Azumi.
“We’re you supposed to be with Monty? What happened to him? He’s not drunk again, is he?”
