"Brah, keep up!"
[break][break]
Beau is running, which is not incredibly unusual in and of itself. The slight issue is his destination: he is pelting full-tilt into the entrance of an incredibly tall and complex hedge maze, the wild environs of which do not necessarily seem to be the most easily traversible at speed.
[break][break]
Surely enough, his progress is abruptly halted as the entrance diverges into two paths, one to the left and one to the right. Beau skids to a halt, breathing lightly, then turns around with a fierce bellow. "Come on out, Chaos! Smash through this puny little bush so we can get to the prize!"
[break][break]
A moment passes and nothing happens. At length, a small shape tumbles into view down the main path of the maze, snorting and snuffling as it pants, trying to keep up with its trainer. This is Chaos the Snubbull, whose huge, watery eyes regard his trainer and then the tall hedgerow ahead of him with a grim determination at odds with the heaving pants he currently takes after his long trot into the maze proper.
[break][break]
With a growl, Chaos leaps into the air, landing a fierce Crunch on a section of vines and leaves. The foliage rustles slightly, but other than that, nothing appears to happen, leaving the Snubbull hanging from the middle of the wall, jaws clenched firmly on an especially large leaf.
[break][break]
"Huh. Man, Chaos, this place must be, like, EXTRA reinforced if you can't get through it!" Beau reaches up to collect the small dog-like pokemon, placing him on the ground and patting his head in a friendly manner. "Okay, brah, left or right?"
[break][break]
With a cough that sounds more like a whistling wheeze, Chaos takes off at a very menacing sedate walk down the LEFT path, Beau following with a whoop.

THE FIRST CHECKPOINT


The glower on the Roselia's face as she looks at your Snubbull is astonishing, little petals whirling irritably above her head like a storm cloud as she crosses her arms. Someone clearly doesn't think messing with the maze is funny.

Regardless, the Roselia guarding this first of many choices nods, bowing as she steps aside to let you enter your chosen path. The other closes abruptly in a curtain of moss and vines at the Pokemon's behest, unable to be retread.

Your choice at the first checkpoint is decided; your path is set.

You go LEFT.[break]

THE PATH LESS TRAVELED BY



As you advance deeper into the maze, flowers of every hue blossom and unfurl around you, as if celebrating your passage deeper into the leafy foliage. Sunlight spills forth through the crevices of leaves and branches, at last revealing a Lilligant who stands before you.

She elegantly curtseys with a smile, as if she has been long awaiting your presence. In her leafy hands, she holds a boxed gift:
[break]
Pokeballs
FIVE POKEBALLS. You have PASSED the first checkpoint!


Behind her another choice awaits you: a winding, looping path to the left, and a narrow and snaking path to the right.

Which path shall you take, ?

[attr="class","complanet-post"]

Oblivious to the Roselia's irritation, Beau offers a jaunty wave as he wanders past her, following the snorting and snuffling of Chaos as the Snubbull pads sedately down the path they've chosen. At length, the pair arrive at another intersection and Beau blinks at the Lilligant warden as she offers the box. "For me?" he inquires, looking over one shoulder and then the other before pointing at himself, as though there were anyone else in arm's reach that might have a gift being given to them.
[break][break]
He accepts the box with a broad grin, cracking the lid open ever so slightly before throwing it wide with a happy exclamation, withdrawing the poke balls inside and pocketing them. "Thanks, dude!" he effuses, offering the Lilligant a double finger gun in gratitude.
[break][break]
"Okay, Chaos, we have another choice to make. Which way this time, left or right?" The winded Snubbull glances first one direction, then the other, before once more setting off along the LEFT path. Beau offers one more cheery wink to the Lilligant before chasing after his pokemon.

THE SECOND CHECKPOINT


The Lilligant attempts to mimic your fingerguns, though the result is more like an excited flailing of hands. She seems excited that you're excited, anyway.

Smiling, the Lilligant that guards this second checkpoint bobs her head in silent understanding, stepping aside to let you enter your chosen path. The other closes abruptly in a curtain of moss and vines at the Pokemon's behest, unable to be retread.

Your choice at the second checkpoint is decided; your path is set.

You go LEFT.[break]

THE PATH LESS TRAVELED BY



A gentle wind bearing dandelion spores draws you further into the maze, sticky with sweet pollen. It tickles your nose, leaving it no surprise when the bend turns to reveal a joyful Jumpluff standing before you.

She chirps with apparent delight at your arrival, hopping up and down upon a boxed gift that she urges towards you:
[break]

THREE TM/TR MOVES. You have PASSED the second checkpoint!


Behind the blue Pokemon another choice awaits you: a circuitous path to the left, and a deceptively straight, arrow-like path to the right.

Which path shall you take, ?

As Beau wanders through the maze, his gaze is torn to the walls to each side and the ground underfoot as the foliage shifts and changes. Several steps ahead, Chaos huffs and scampers around a corner, then sneezes, propelling himself back into view, followed by a lazy drift of dandelion spores.
[break][break]
"Whoa, little dude, careful! I gotcha." Hurrying forward, Beau scoops the Snubbull up in his arms, turning down the length of the next path and regarding the floating seeds with dubious apprehension. With a yell, Beau breaks into a full-out run, sheltering Chaos from the deadly drifting spores as the pokemon buries his head in the crook of Beau's elbow.
[break][break]
Bursting out in front of the Jumpluff, Beau gives a victorious whoop and punches the air with his free hand, taking up the box and shoving it in his bag while offering a broad grin at the waiting Jumpluff. Adjusting his grip on Chaos, he turns to regard the fork in the path, glancing down to ask the Snubbull, "Which way, brah?"
[break][break]
Chaos raises his head to survey the options before offering a rheumy nod at the RIGHT path. Beau nods as Chaos burrows his head back into his trainer's elbow, setting off at a brisk trot.

THE THIRD CHECKPOINT


Your energy is met in equal measure by the excitable Jumpluff, who dances about with glee around you and your Snubbull. As if to say, 'You got this, brah!'

The delight doesn't leave the Jumpluff as she confirms your decision with a decisive hop, skipping aside to let you enter your chosen path. The other closes abruptly in a curtain of moss and vines at the Pokemon's behest, unable to be retread.

Your choice at the third checkpoint is decided; your path is set.

You go RIGHT.[break]

OUT OF THE WOODS



You follow the long and winding path of the maze, eyes scanning for the next possible glimpse of the promised checkpoint ahead. The flowers, however, seem to furl up and diminish in your shadow; it occurs to you, after some time of endless wandering and meandering, that your path only goes one way.

Out.

The radiant smile of a Bellossom greets you, dancing over to you with a consolation gift in her hands. Next to her, the figure of her trainer, , gives a small, sympathetic smile. "Halfway through? Impressive. I hope you feel your efforts are suitably rewarded," she says, gesturing for you to open the proffered box.

[break]

HAS COMPLETED THE MAZE CHALLENGE!

[break][break]
You have EXITED the maze and are eligible for the following prizes when this thread closes: [break]
50 PD[break]
