Shaymin are rarely seen outside of Shaymin Village, as a result of them trying to preserve their culture. However, tourists are encouraged to visit Sky Peak for a fun cultural learning experience.

Though Yohann makes an effort to put Persim berries in most of his meals to avoid headaches, his actual favorite berry is the Bluk berry. He especially enjoys a Bluk berry wine.

One of the fastest land pokemon for its size is Toedscool. Their legs can push them surprisingly quickly across a variety of surfaces.

Malachi and Yohann have been friends since Malachi moved into Treasure Town. Though Yohann has a tendency to be dry towards Malachi, he often finds himself giving advice to help him out.

Though he loves the feel of it, Yohann hates working with silk. It's often far too slippery and takes him much longer to sew with.

All pokemon are functionally omnivores, but some have more meat-heavy or plant-heavy dietary preferences. Berries can meet most dietary needs as well, though a berry-exclusive diet is rare since pokemon generally like more variety in textures and flavors.

Agriculture in OBT's world is incredibly varied from location to location. Many local farmers choose to grow berries over other fruits or vegetables thanks to their unique strength-boosting properties, which makes them popular for sale at markets. Though for personal gardens, most pokemon settle for growing non-berry plants as berries tend to be finicky and difficult to grow without proper resources.

... and with that, I've filled up the Normal/Bronze Rank 10 page queue for the first time in a long while! And hopefully I'll keep that queue full this time, hehe. Any more pages that I do up until public updates release again are for the eyes of Silver Rank+ patrons only!

Very few psychic-type pokemon can outright read thoughts, and those that can often inflict extreme mental strain when they perform telepathy even with a willing participant. These thoughts are described to be difficult to translate, as they often combine all five senses.

Are aliens real? There are some reports of strange looking “pokemon” who are unable to communicate through aura who come from another world- but these reports haven’t been confirmed.

Turquoise Reef’s quirk is that it generates loop-like rock structures that work as a speed boost for pokemon going through them. The more loops you go through in a row, the faster your speed- just try not to get sick.

There is a Xatu in town that is said to be able to see the future. If you asked him personally though, he’d tell you that he uses telepathy to read the general personality of a pokemon and give them advice based on their behavior.

The move Pay Day only works within dungeons, and increases the chances of rare minerals growing in a dungeon over the course of the next few days. That said, it only “attracts” a concentration of minerals in a specific area rather than generating them from nothing. The use of Pay Day is often regulated in dungeons to prevent abuse.

The original fate of Azrael! Everyone's favorite Smeargle could've had a much worse death than a bad date night.
If you just read that and thought "who the hell is Azrael?", allow me to give...

The move Attract works less like an instantaneous feeling of attraction, and more like a stimulant that increases heart rate. Some equate this to the feeling of being in love, but others describe it as anxiety. The increased adrenaline makes opponents more likely to trip up and miss with their attacks.

Rune’s garden has been doing relatively well with plenty of edible crops, but there’s one plot of land reserved for seeds Dielle finds and gives Rune. It’s mostly full of weeds, but Rune treats them as well as any crop.

The Guildmaster left his human life behind when he was a child, and as a result feels disconnected from the world he left behind. He reads quite a bit about human history to try filling the gaps.
