That was a really mean prank...

[The admonishment comes from a very pale boy, blanket wrapped around his shoulders and over his head like a cocoon. He looks sick, and most longer term residents will recognise the cause as the Halloween goodie bag of berries still sitting in his lap.]

What if one of my Pokemon got poisoned? I know playing tricks on people is a tradition at Halloween, but that's just going too far.

[He shivers, drawing the blanket around himself a little tighter.]

I think I even started hallucinating. Everyone suddenly had magical powers...

[Though each time he tried to recall specific details he'd remember things a little differently. Tapestries would disappear, orchards would rot, rooms would melt. Another sign it was just a dream? Or is it just another effect of those berries?]

Oh! And our Pokemon were there, too! They must have gone before us - somehow they managed to get trapped behind all these colored doors.
