When Kokou awoke from his slumber it was still dark out. He checked his phone for the time and found it was still four in the morning. Kokou wasn't sure just what had woken him up, maybe some loud noise or the feeling of insufferable heat. He felt fine laying in bed  though, and tried to drift back to sleep until at least eight o clock, but it wouldn't work. Kokou was up for the day, so he got dressed and made himself some breakfast. Wearing a baggy pair of dark washed jeans and a white tank top, Kokou scarfed down his honey nut cereal, with bananas, and went to brush his teeth. He didn't have any plans for the day, work had been done for the week, but the Rocket member wanted to look his best on his day off. With his hair brushed and deodorant applied, Kokou was ready for the day, at the ripe hour of just six o clock in the morning. 
[break][break]
Not bothered by sitting alone, Kokou spent a couple hours cleaning up his hotel room. Work from Rocket came in about a week ago, so he had been in this hotel since then. Kokou lived in Sootopolis, but his job as a hired hand brought him all over Hoenn. Staying in hotels was customary for Kokou, and he liked to keep his home clean, spotless in fact.
[break][break]
Once everything was put in order, it was just past eight o clock and it was time to open the window for Fu. Fu was Kokou's starter Pokemon, a treasured Rowlet with a mischievous personality. Kokou had great respect for all of his Pokemon, but he treated them as instruments of war. Kokou never showed his Pokemon plain affection. He had love for Pokemon, but he didn't see them as pets. Kokou saw his Pokemon as swords. With the window open, Rowlet flew through into the house and landed on his perch. Fu didn't like poke balls and only found himself contained in the most extreme cases. The Grass Quill Pokemon began preening itself. It had spent all night hunting for bug Pokemon to eat and was tired. It would be able to get in a little nap, but Kokou had plans for the day. 
[break][break]
Today Kokou was taking his Pokemon to the beach. He started gathering up towels in a bag for his different Pokemon. Some of them didn't like water, but they would still be playing in the sand and need a pat down after all the dirt got stuck in their fur. Kokou packed oil for Tekko the Beldum, he needed it to stay cool in the blasting heat, and brought special combs to brush the feathers of Fu the Rowlet and Sora the Rookidee. Shikon the Deino loved to swim so he would need extra towels, and Oishii the Munchlax would need lots of snacks to sun bathe for hours. Ren the Shinx would have a lot of fun running in the sand, but she didn't like to get in the water if she could help it. Ir was definitely going to be a much needed day of relaxation for Kokou's Pokemon. They worked hard beating down trainers for money, and they were ever vigilant Pokemon who strictly obeyed their master. A fun beach day was deserved.
[break][break]
Once everything was packed, Kokou woke up Rowlet and commanded him to follow. Fu was a subservient Pokemon and did so, hooting along the way. 
[break][break]
As Kokou rolled up to the beach, wearing his jeans, he threw all of his Pokeballs out into the sand. Roaring mightily as they were released, Kokou's team assembled. They were surprised to learn that Kokou had a day of fun planned for them, usually Kokou had them train or work at different tasks. They were pleased to find their master thinking about their morale, and all of them began rough housing in the sand.
[break][break]
Standing in front of his Pokemon with his hands in his pockets, Kokou watched them have their fun. Shikon jumped into the water right away, as espected, and Ren started peeling out back and forth in the sand, kicking up dust at Kokou's other Pokemon. Oishi proceeded to lay down and take a nap, he would wake up up for snacks later. Fu continued following Kokou, as he was ordered, and hooted around him cheerfully. Sora went dive bombing the ocean, pulling up at the waters edge in just enough time. Tekko was happy to float around Kokou, mumbling happily to itself as it watched it's masters back. The team was having fun, and Kokou was glad to know his Pokemon were happy. Happy soldiers led to achievements in war.
[break][break]
Watching his Pokemon, Kokou was free to be approached by anyone who happened to be at the beach on this sweltering hot day.

Also hanging around on the beach was none other than the titular Spooky Squad, a bundle of ghost types were at large (in their hearts) around Hoenn. Their tiny leader, Ashley, had found the perfect little beachside area to chill the hot summer day away at. Their presence was largely unnoticed by most people around the beach, though once they hit the warm sands, the gang made their way through with things aplenty! Eleanor the Gengar was carrying a (stolen) cooler full of (also stolen) treats and drinks galore for everyone in the crew. Ashley, in the mean time, would charge ahead while carrying her Litwick, Morgana. Alastor the Honedge made space on the child's back with his scabbard fluttering in the wind. Nyx the Shuppet and Perona the Yamask floated by one another and chatted amongst themselves, while Greedy the Gholdenego followed behind them! [break][break]

The group were the talk of the town, or at least the people whose peace was disturbed as their antics took them across the beach. Over the course of a few hours, reports of all kinds of mischief were afoot! People had things that were missing, graffiti painted across several outhouses and one unfortunate beachgoer had spotted a mysterious girl riding a Gengar quickly stealing some beach hats out of the nearby gift shop. Everyone was a light with the activity, but nobody seemed to be able to find the culprit! She could be anywhere! Be any kid here! She could even be...behind you! [break][break]

"Gen?" Ashley poked her head out from around one of the many umbrellas lining the beach while her pals were off doing their own separate little instances of fun. Her eyes glanced at a Pokemon she hadn't even seen before, one which she wanted to learn more about! It was floating around a solitary looking guy who seemed to be busy with things. And what good was a Gengar if they weren't a little mischievous? "Gehehehe~" Ashley quickly snuck her way over to the Pokemon in question, her eyes never straying away. The girl was locked in and ready to observe it more form up close. What dark secrets could something like this have for the unwitting soul? [break][break]

In reality, both Kokou and his Beldum could have seen the blonde girl staring at them from afar and then just vanish from sight constantly, before she had wandered up close enough to get a good view of it. [break][break]

Once close enough, Ashley leaned in to inspect the mysterious Pokemon, trying to view it from every angle with nothing to say or do in between. It wasn't until she had her fill of circling around both that she let out a most esteemed, "Gengar!" in approval! She looked up at the older man who owned the Pokemon and smiled at him, before then going to investigate that cozy looking Munchlax! She hurried up to the guy and kneeled down to offer up one of her treats. [break][break]

"Gengar!~" [break][break]

NOTES


- Ashley appears on the beach and causes trouble![break]
- After her routine of causing terror, she spots Kokou and his party enjoying a day at the beach[break]
- Ashley wanders over and watches the Beldum with intense gaze before moving to the Munchlax and offering him a snack!

As he stood there on the beach, Kokou found it incredibly peaceful. The sounds of people playing with their Pokemon was like the hum of traffic to him, it didn't warm his heart, but he appreciated the noise. Kokou had his hands on his hips, taking in the ocean scenery, when a curious little girl came up to him. She said "Gengar" and proceeded to play with Kokou's Munchlax. Normally he would have stopped her, Kokou was strict with his Pokemon, but on this day of relaxing, Kokou thought it better to teach his Pokemon to socialize with people. Watching the girl feed Oishii snacks, Kokou lets out a soft whistle, telling Oishii, "Enjoy the day, soldier." Kokou always called his Pokemon soldiers, that was his pet name for them.
[break][break]
Wobbling over to Ashley, Oishii had his hands up for a treat. He loved snacks, especially salty chips. "Munchlax!" Oishii barked, taking the snack from Ashley quickly. He wasn't used to other people besides Kokou, and Oishii was tentative at first, but the appeal of a snack was forever embedded in a Munchlax's heart and he quickly gave in. Munching down, Oishii looked up at Ashley with wonder in his eyes, thankful for the treats.
