Location: Shui City Members: 1+ Outside of Shui, obscured in the morning fog and cloudy days, lies the Ki-Ren Clan Dojo. An important center of history and significance, the Ki-Rin Clan maintains the dojo as a school for the mind, the body, and the soul. Historical texts cite that the infamous warrior dancers that graduated from the school went on to become the very dancers for the old rulers of the land, and their art was such that dancer and Pokemon entered another level of connections.
The Dojo still teaches the most fundamental of these dances, the Dance of the Dragons, which has been considered a high benchmark in the life of any performer. The rigors of such a dance test the very limits of your mind, your body, and your connection with your Pokemon partner, and it is only those who are the most capable that can be considered worthy of learning such a thing. Skilled coordinators and dancers alike travel to this place for a rigorous month-long course, before putting their new skills to the test in a public performance.
The mission itself will involve timeskips, and cover the three main lessons. The Blind Step, in which the fundamentals of the dance is learned by trainer and Pokemon, as well as the art of dancing with a war fan, the art of meditation, and the manners of a performer. The next portion of the mission will cover the Singing Step, in which participants are expected to have memorized the song, and must dance with their Pokemon without musical accompaniment. The final lesson is The Full Step, in which the trainer and Pokemon must attack and take down a certain number of dummy targets while performing. At the end of their tutelage, students are expected and invited to a small public performance held in the dojo. Those that have proven their mastery over the Dance of the Dragon will be rewarded with the final step of the dance, The Evolving Step, in which the mental and physical preparations from the dance are put to the test of the bond built between trainer and Pokemon to prepare them for Mega Evolution, considered the most beautiful end to any dance.
Opponents: The Instructor, who acts as your sensei and then as your performance judge. Consider this to be a Contest for all intents and purposes of judging. Rewards: Full Mega Knowledge. Notes The dance is an extended variant on this, with the addition of war fans and an emphasis on form and poise.
Those taking this post should understand that there will be a desired level of posting quality on par with contest performances. Moderators handling this mission will be in charge of handling the instructor, the setting, and the time skips. The training between the major lessons can be roleplayed as desired, but the only necessity is to do the three lessons and the final performance. The mod is in charge of setting the scenes and the time skips after the lessons.

By current site guidelines, this Mission has been approved. However, the Staff is currently planning a reevaluation of the Mega Evolution system so in order to avoid anyone starting this mission and then having to drop it due to a change in how gaining knowledge works this Mission will not be added until March at the absolute latest when Mega Evolution info will be reposted with the planned incoming update. We're sorry for the wait regarding our response but do love the creativity of this mission.

DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
Location: Shui City Catching: No Members: 1-2 Cipher Only
There are rumors that within Shui there is man with ties to the once infamous organization Cipher. It is your job to investigate these rumours and find out if any of them hold true. Should the man actually exist, you are to do whatever it takes to get him to rejoin Cipher. Even if it means undergoing a series of repetitive and tedious tasks, this man must rejoin the cause.
Location: Iceburgh Catching: No Members: 1-2 Merek is a small time toy maker from Iceburgh that's currently trying to make his new product, My Little Hero, strong enough to rough play from baby Pokemon while providing an experience that can be enjoyed again and again. Unfortunately for his toy testers, aka you and your potential partner, his electronic toys tend to be defective. Thoroughly review 3 of his Little Hero toys with a first-stage/baby Pokemon and try not to get hurt.
Toys might have wires sticking out in places that they shouldn't, so be mindful of that. Also be mindful of the glitches of each toy, which you can make up. Rewards: 10PD SB:
Sell! Sell! Sell!
Location: Bayonadaville Catching: No Members: 1 Tired of having her fish deli go unnoticed by the much larger brand names in Bayonadaville, Arabella has had enough, and is looking for the assistance of a Coordinator to give her shabby little stand a flashy touch. Try to showcase her product and shop for the 9am-7pm work day.
Arabella doesn't want to pay for your mistakes, so the mission will fail if you cause any unnecessary damage.
Rewards: 1 Coordinator Seal of choice SB:
LF: Comfort Dog for 10yo Boy
Location: Wizen Catching: Yes (Urban), Drifloon, Furfrou, Snubbull Members: 1 "My little Ivan has some sort of Drifloon-phobia, for what reason I have no idea, but the balloon Pokemon frequent Wizen City so much, that he's terrified of leaving the house by himself. Ivan loves dogs, and I've done enough research to think that a therapy dog might be worth a try to confront his fears. Just to be safe, it would be a relief if a trainer escorted him through Wizen to make sure nothing happens to him."
You can write Ivan any way you please. Don't magically cure his phobia, but catch one of the canine Pokemon for him so he can feel a little safer. Trainer should keep a canine Pokemon of their own out so Ivan doesn't get too stressed. Rewards: 15PD SB:
These are good to go They just need edited into the Mission Template - Popple
I'm going to add some new ones under here, cause I might as well do everything at once in one post. - Birdy
Edible Inspiration
Location: Iceburgh Catching: No Members: 1-2
'Fantasy Candies' is a local sweets shop tucked away on a hustling street that barely catches a wink of sleep at night. The owner, Mr.Flanders, towers over the front counter with muscles as large as the plethora of cakes that are tucked away in the counter's display case. Despite appearances, he's a massive sweetheart with a soft spot for children, and the kids know it too. Flanders is hoping to base his newest batch of creations on several Pokemon that the kids like, and he wants a Pokemon retainer to showcase a few of their Pokemon for his next hit.
His husband, however, asks that you make sure that the children don't take advantage of the shop owner's kindness while you're over there. They're friendly enough to enter the shop even with the 'closed' sign up, and consider the shop their main hang out place.
Rewards: 1 Whipped Dream per member SB:
Ranch Protection Squad
Location: The Wilds Catching: Yes (Grasslands 1) Members: 1-2
Great Ol' Yodel is a ranch that's comfortably located between Shui and Tynntill, and while its pastures are vast and filled with Miltank, Skiddo, and Gogoat for fresh Moomoo Milk and goat milk, an awful storm tore apart chunks of the wooden fence that kept predators at bay. Repairs are expected to take 2 days to complete, and while the ranch Pokemon are safely tucked into the barns at night, they still need to go out into the grasslands to graze in the day.
The Yodel staff are looking for trainers that can keep predatory Poochyena, Shinx, and Litleo at bay, all while protecting the ranch Pokemon from the hostile Combee swarms and territorial Doduo and Girafarig in the area.
Rewards: (IC) 2 jars of Fresh Moomoomilk, 2 faulty Repels that attract Pokemon instead of repelling them SB:

MISSION TITLE
Location: The Wilds Catching: Yes (Not steelix) Members: Yumi + Josh Reports have been coming in of a steelix destroying the homes of those who have decided to live in the wilds, and even the transports of travelling civilians and trainers alike. There are rumors it's something even the league may not be able to handle out of the sheer size and power the beast is rumored to have. As such, a bounty has been put on it's head for any trainer in need of a little extra dosh to take on. Be warned, this is no ordinary steelix, and it has beyond ordinary friends to back it up.
Face 2 seperate cave horde spawns, before facing a monstrous steelix.
