She glanced up at the sky, looking at the drifting snowflakes as they twirled around and about, looking like small ballerinas dressed in white. She grinned, knowing just how graceful those types of dancers were. Could she someday become an elegant and lady-like figure like those she admired? Closing her red hues again, she clasped together her hands, hoping that she was alone, and made a wish to the open sky. Who knew if anyone would hear that silent wish, but Aya felt better letting it fly into the sky, where perhaps some god would hear it. Was maybe Jirachi the wishing Pok?mon out there to hear her? It was worth a shot.
With her wish sent, she breathed out in relief, and opened her eyes. Stepping from behind the tree she was hiding with, she glanced out at all the people that were present during this festive time of the year. Grinning, she may as well go out and mingle with people, though who would she be able to make an intelligent conversation with? [/style] |

Hehe, what's this? Mew sat in a tree, staring down at the people below as she watched them all excitedly. Christmas was her most favorite holiday and she loved working with Santa too. Mew loved making people happy- both Pokémon and People alike. The pink Pokémon smiled, throwing the presents down to the next girl who stood near. Aya;You have so much!

C [/size][/font] hristmas, huh? She didn't believe in it, even if she had gotten cozy on a dozen mall Santa laps. Her Family didn't celebrate it. So she'd spent the last two decades of her life watching around the corners, sullenly staring at other kids celebrating... what. Free presents?
... Really, it was a concept she could really get behind.
... Though, if she was being honest with herself, which she made a point never to do, maybe... taking part in some stupid winter solstice activity wasn't so awful. I mean.. everyone seemed to be having fun. Like they were friends, or something. ... Her Family was, by nature, a collective ass. But at times like these? When she was all alone in a strange land, and the winter chilled her to her bone, she wished...
... No, damn, no. This is stupid. Sentimental gobbledygook. Heart ache is for suckers. She hoped no one saw the conflict on her face, and she drew closer to inspect the Christmas tree, pretending to be really interested in one the cheap decorations hanging from a bough. God forbid she have feelings.

Christmas was a holiday that Callisto loved, even if the trainer didn't really understand it. Everyone was usually so happy, though wandering around this particular holiday gathering, there were more unhappy faces than one would expect.
Callisto wasn't one of these unhappy faces, though, and so the trainer mingled with the crowd, cheerfully greeting the strangers and exchanging hellos and season's greetings with everyone, though not spending more than a minute talking to any one person.
What was this holiday about again? Presents and sugar, Callisto guessed.
(Neither of my characters have anything from Cheyenne, because I was never there~♥ They both have prestarters though if that affects anything~?)

His experience as a new Pok?mon trainer in the Cheyenne Region wasn’t the most pleasant one. Little less than one month ago, he had been ambushed by Team Death who had not only taken all his Pok?mon but all his items as well. Sadly they had made the perfect getaway, never to be found. This was a sign for a fresh start. He sighed and took in a deep breath of the crisp wintery air as he took his first step on Aethra soil. “This has got to be a better experience for me… I can’t believe I lost Litwick… I lost everyone…” He began his walk into the unnamed port city where he came across the cities massive Christmas tree lit up with tiny light up figures of almost every Pok?mon known to man. He smiled sadly looking up at the tree as his tiny hand formed into a fist. “This time I will be tougher… I will be a champion!”
**Haze has arrived in the Aethra Region with no items or Pok?mon**

Her trainer cut a wide path through the crowd, as people seemed to melt away before her, either sensing she was trouble or following the example of those that did. Tillia was not a girl that most chose to cross. But she was attracting some very odd looks…and it was no small surprise; she was dressed like it was the middle of summer! How Tillia could show so much skin and not be absolutely freezing? By rights, her tanned skin should be blue – or black in some places with frostbite, it was certainly cold enough – but she didn’t even seem to have so much as a raised hair. The girl was inhuman!
“Fuck winter, and fuck Christmas.” she shivered then, an odd motion for someone who didn’t appear to feel the cold, her standard vulgarity earning her several disapproving stares from passers-by, which she seemed not to notice…or simply not to care about. In its own way, her attitude was admirable, and Lirael wished that she knew why her trainer was so unashamedly brazen around others…but at the same time, it was extremely embarrassing, because she couldn’t help but feel that those hostile glares were being projected onto her, as well.
Why don’t you like Christmas? Lirael was genuinely curious. Even the most mean-spirited of people could not help but feel the holiday cheer, and on nights like these, it was in abundance. Surely Tillia’s unfeeling mask did not extend that far?
“Because it’s so fucking fake these days. All this commercial bollocks; people start preparing for it in fucking November! Just another excuse for greedy commercial bastards to make money and spoiled rich brats to get more stuff from their parents. They act so fucking cheerful, and it’s all a load of bullshit.” There was bitterness in Tillia’s voice that you didn’t need to be psychic to pick up, and her genuine vehemence surprised Lirael. She really did not like it…or, perhaps, the memories it brought. It seemed a bit too…personal, to be a dislike of the holiday season. Lirael had avoided questioning Tillia about her past, and she sensed that now would be a good time to drop it…Tillia tended to withdraw into herself if certain lines of conversation were pursued, and the silences were even more awkward than the constant swearing. She wisely decided to accept the answer as it was given. She had to admit, though, her trainer had a point, even if that line of thought was a little too cynical for her liking.
“Well, pardon us for being happy.” one woman sniffed, earning her a glare from Tillia, who seemed more annoyed by the interruption than anything else. The woman offered no further comment, however, and simply continued on, as though Tillia didn’t exist at all.
“Yeah, fuck you too, you stupid bitch!” she shouted after her, throwing a rude gesture her way for good measure. Lirael sighed. Already there was a wide space around Tillia, as people started to distance themselves from her. The atmosphere was one of general hostility, and it was putting her on edge. If this was what Tillia had to put up with every time she ventured into a city, it was no wonder she was so angry all the time…but then, she had brought this on herself.
Where are we going, anyway? she asked, unable to keep the weariness out of her voice. It was late, it was cold, and she was tired. She wished her trainer would pick her up.
“Over there.” she pointed to where a small crowd had gathered. Lirael squinted, trying to see what was so special about over there…someone was distributing presents. At this, Lirael gave her a cautious glance. Was this entire thing a front? But no; she couldn’t sense anything other than Tillia’s usual mix of anger and self-loathing right now; no hidden excitement, no amusement, not even sadness. She genuinely hated Christmas. That saddened Lirael immensely, even if it didn’t surprise her…in the coldest time of the year, it was no surprise Tillia’s heart was still ice cold. But this seeking of presents was unusual for her.
You’re going to get a present? Why?
“Why not?” Tillia shrugged, “I hate this fucking holiday, but if people are going to be stupid enough to give shit away for free…might as well take advantage of it.”
Lirael sighed again; something she seemed to be doing a lot of recently. Talk about double standards…

What was Christmas? Sure, back home, people say it was time of giving and joy. Asuka, being the quiet and loner she is, never got a chance to really celebrate Christmas. Why was that? This was due to many reasons. Her parents? Sure, she give gits and hang around them. But friends and comrades? No. Most of her short life she was isolated and alone. It wasn't until five to six years ago did she managed to make friends. Most of them are from Slateport Prep, the local private Trainer, Breeder, and Coordinator class.
yes, those friends were good and all. But she never got to chance to spend a day with them during the time of Christmas. In fact, now she remembered...she never got to go to any events like Halloween Parties, Dances, or anything like that. Not that she wasn't offered to hang out with during that time. It was just that..she knew those friends had other priorties.
Still, at times like this, when it was time to have a time of cheer and joy, she wished she was back home. She could be eating her mothers homemade cookies and drinking her father's secret eggnog. At the thought of these foods, her stomach grumbled. A sheepish look appeared on her slightly pale skin. SHe felt something tug her pant's leg. Looking down, she saw Silva, her Aron. Aron gave a soft wail and rubbed her head against her leg gently. A smile appeared on her face.
"At least I got you Silva, still, I wish I could have some more friends or company ya know." Asuka sighed. She glanced at Silva and shrugged "No offense, but you are a tad small and young. So grow up fast right? OR at least help me find some new friends and Pok?mon to join our Team." Happy New Year and Christmas indeed.
Pok?mon brought over from Cheyenne: None.

The Mew watched as the next group walked up. She was particularly worried that one of them did not like Christmas. How could this be? It was a magical time when everyone could love and belong. Yet, she giggled softly, spinning in the air as glitter fell from the bubbles she bounced on towards back to her beloved owner- the one and only, Santa. Santa laughed as well, handing over wrapped presents to the legendary Pokémon so she could give them out. Everyone received a present- no matter what. Winnie;Welcome to Aethra!

Cheryl had not celebrated Christmas before, at least not in Aethra. She'd celebrated it in Black City with Becca and on rare occasions her parents, but it was always a most sombre affair. Not that they where bad Christmases mind you, she'd enjoyed baking and swapping gifts with Becca - but all noise was always kept to a minimum because her parents would be working in the room next door. Her parents hardly ever celebrated, Christmas was always the most busy time of year due to the fact that the cold weather always caused an influx of injury claims for them to process.
This year was her first time celebrating alone and thus she had decided to explore the local areas to see what people where up to, today she had noticed a group of people hanging around and talking in a lively fashion. Polite as she was Cheryl didn't eavesdrop in on the conversations, but she did unwittingly hear the word Cheyenne quite often which lead her to believe that all these people must be from that area. She herself wasn't familiar with the region, after all Aethra was the first region she'd ever visited outside Unova and thus this was all rather odd to her.
As odd as this all was it was a most interesting gathering, and she decided to move closer to see if she could find out what was going on - and perhaps even join in with a couple of conversations
Note: Cheryl is a new character, and thus did now bring any Pokémon from Cheyenne.

Nati had come from Celadon, almost directly. He had evil intentions but something about Christmas almost enlightened him. He wasn't a grinch or a grouch and many found him actually humble at christmas time. Nobody really knew why, hell most people didn't really care either. He walked around a bit, having no idea what the sounds and conversations about Cheyenne really were about. He found himself a seat and began to look around, his hand resting on his Houndours head, patting him on the head as he reached over to a table and grabbed a ginger snap. He ate one for himself, feeding one to Diablo as well. He listened for a while, trying to understand the whole concept of people bringing things with them from Cheyenne, still having really no idea what Cheyenne was. "Well, D... I think we are in the minority" He joked, the Houndour sneaking another snap from off the table. "Happy holidays buddy" He said smiling, the Houndour barking loudly directing attention their way. Nati smile and wave... putting a finger over his lips... "Shh... We are inside silly" Nati said. He really was a different person around the holidays.
Note: Nati is a new character - Bringing Diablo as a pre-starter but obviously NOT from Cheyenne (hehe)

Sure, she knew it existed, but her family had never been much for celebrations and the like. The whole notion of decorating homes, buying gifts, singing carols, that was all brand new for Esther. Not to say she didn't like it, the whole idea of giving to others was great and she loved it, however, it was foreign. She never really went to parties even if her friends were hosting them. Not that she wanted to hang out with a bunch of adults standing around talking about business anyways.
She noticed a growing throng of people for the festive season. She took a moment to think things over, pacing back and forth for several long moments before deciding to join the group clustered. Surely, it couldn't be that bad. Earlier, she'd heard this had something to do with presents. Esther was more of a giving person, not as much into receiving. While some had been celebrating Christmas all their lives, this was a definite first for Esther. She was excited and suspicious at the same time. There was talk of a region known as "Cheyenne"...where ever that was. Seemed like the place imploded or something. Esther wasn't trying to eavesdrop or anything, but it was hard to ignore the conversations. Like everyone else, she hung around, waiting, though rather unsure what she was waiting for. Well, the whole waiting part was an assumption. Esther didn't really know what was going on. Still, it seemed worth her free time to be there.

The Mew was happily giving away presents until she glanced over, noticing the sad look on Santa's face. It was almost that time of year again; the time when he was both happy and sad.

[/size] ‘Twas the season to be jolly! Aurora practically skipped through the gathering area, completely entranced by every last light and decoration the winter festival had to offer. I mean, how could someone not get excited for the most wonderful time of the year? Well… to be quite honest, the girl would peg Halloween as her ultimate favorite holiday – so much free candy! – but Christmas was totally up there on the list. It had such an infectious spirit that should put a skip in everyone’s step, especially when ol’ Kris Kringle was so close around the corner.
On the other hand, however, this year would be her very first Christmas holiday away from home. As much as she tried to push such annoyingly bitter thoughts out of her mind and enjoy the seasons tidings, guilt and homesickness had a nasty habit of sucking some of the life out of you. No Rapidash rides around the pen or bobbing for berries in the barn this year. Well, not for her anyways. Mentally she berated herself for waiting this long to send any sort of word back to Sinnoh…
Oh, she knew! She’d get a bunch of souvenirs from Aethra to make up for the lost time. The last thing she’d ever want would be to associate any bitter feelings with such a magical season. “Rin! You wanna help me pick out some pretty presents this year?” The Riolu beside her jumped up from his snow angel and howled in response, eager to please and experience all that this festival had to offer.
By the end of the afternoon, the pair had gathered quite the selection: an Eon Duo plush set, some Delibird hand-puppets, plenty of postcards and gift baskets, and not to mention the immeasurable amount of Christmas cookies and hot chocolate they both consumed. Not so personal, but hey, it’ll do. She’d have to draw something later to throw in the bunch. Since they were ahead of schedule, the trainer-Pok?mon duo spent the rest of their time enjoying the beautiful set up and scenery. As long as she had him, she knew it’d be a good Christmas this year.
Note: Aurora is my only character and she brought a level 4 Riolu with her from Chey’

Her hazel eyes peered up to the sky as gentle snowflakes poured from the sky. It was actually her first time in such cold conditions. Furthermore she was actually stuck in line, awaiting her Christmas present. Just like she had never really experienced the cold, Natalia never celebrated Christmas. She wasn't sure how this "Secret Santa" thing worked, or even who this Santa character was. The trainers around her were swarmed by brightly colorful Pok?mon, all filled with glee. Was this the "Christmas Spirit" everyone talked about so much? The small pink Pokémon flying about seemed to be passing out the gifts as Santa's little helper. Natalia had never seen such a Pokémon before. It looked so busy passing out so many gifts that Natalia began doubting if she should have come. She did not even know much about the holiday to be trying to celebrate it.

She only had one Pok?mon and an egg, but nothing to really give to her fellow adventurers during this event. Aethra was booming with newcomers from different regions these days, and the familiar faces she used to see were being replaced by newer, stranger faces. She bit her lip and shrugged, not understanding why she was here when she had nothing to give. On the other hand, she was already feeling apprehensive because she felt so alone in a big room of people. She backed up a bit so she was up against the wall, and watched anxiously.

As Nick walked in he looked around the merry room. Looks like the Christmas spirit had gotten a hold of everyone. There was gift wrap scattered, some Pok?mon running around, trainers too. This was a very live time of year, definitely this place. Nick wondered where the commotion came from and then saw Santa.
He closed his eyes and remembered the days kids would call him Saint Nick. I mean every Nick, Nicholas, and Nickolai probably went through it. The twenty-year old was quite out of the age where Christmas was important for him. The presents and stuff it was really all for the kids. I guess the older you get the more you're into giving.
The spirit of Christmas was definitely in the building tonight. For Nick it was really in the building when his eyes saw something magical. Is that a Mew? Nick wondered as he blinked three times. It was, it was a Mew! Santa plus Christmas and a Mew? Whoa, maybe this Saint Nick guy is real. Nick couldn't believe his eyes. In his seven years as a trainer he had never seen or fathomed seeing a Mew - and now right before his eyes there was one.
The old guy had to chuckle to that. His first laugh since being in Aethra, perhaps this wintry start rolling into the New Year's was for the best. With Kyokudo, Cero, and Chopper by his side he would walk in the festive and into his new life - not alone.
NOTES: BROUGHT: Kyokudo - Gible ;; Cero - Scyther ;; Chopper - Cubchoo ;; Bagon Egg
Merry Christmas to EVERYONE ~

Santa? Christmas? Due to losing her parents at 9 and growing up on the streets, Licorice had already forgotten what it was like to spend Christmas in the company of a loving family. It made her heart constrict with pain when she recalled her mother's and father's gentle smiles as they wished her 'Merry Christmas' and showered her with presents. She missed them so much...
She had no intention of paying the Secret Santa a visit at first, because she found it stupid to sit in some weird dude's lap and tell him her every wishes. She didn't confide in anyone or shared her secrets. She liked being secretive and alone; she only needed her Onix's company. However, after remembering those happy memories of her family she finally gave in and decided to look for the Secret Santa.

Christmas, what a nice season. Cerribelle sighed, letting the cold air fill her lungs and nip her nose as she finally felt her feet walk on hard ground. It was a rather pretty region, she turned her head left and right to take in the view. Wow, pretty. A smile came to her red lips. She'd find it here, she was sure of it. But first, she began to walk down the frosted route, the hotel was still a couple miles away and it was getting late. The girl looked up at the orange sun, setting beneath the flying isle, dying the sky oranges, pinks and blues. She had time here, she'd have to get at least a little bit settled in. Cerribelle has brought no Pok?mon

If there was one thing Kate loved, it was Christmas. She did not say she loved things very often, but she most certainly loved Christmas! Everyone was always so happy, and everything was just so pretty. She loved seeing the world decked out for the holidays, everything all red and green. Most of all though, she loved the snow; the way it glimmered and gleamed atop the trees and buildings, the way it shimmered as it fell, the that as it melted and refroze it became icicles hanging from the roofs of buildings. They were beautiful and deadly at the same time.
When Kate first heard about the Secret Santa, Kate was worried that she would be too late and miss it completely. As she burst through the doors of the building where she heard the secret santa was, she saw that she was far from late. Trainers were all about the room with their Pok?mon, and a large number were gathered around... Mew?
Kate's jaw dropped. She was so close to the legendary Pok?mon. Mew was, in fact, one of the other few things which she could truly say she loved. Ever since she was a tiny child, the tiny pink Pok?mon had always been her absolute favorite. She had always fantasized about finding the legendary Mew, and eventually capturing it. She had expected to finally run into it much later on her journey. Kate had in no way expected to meet it the day she arrived in Aethra. Kate's mouth formed a small pouty frown as she saw the Pok?mon float over to a large, bearded man in a red suit and nuzzle him. It was obvious that the Pok?mon was owned by Santa. Darn... Kate made a mental note to herself to save enough Pokedollars to make a trip to the island of legendary Pok?mon. Surely there would be another Mew there...
Kate slowly walked over to where the trainers gathered and smiled up at the little legendary Pok?mon. Even if she couldn't capture this Mew, it was still amazing to be able to get this close to it on her first day in the region.
Kate has brought no Pok?mon from Cheyenne, as she was never there.
