CONTRARY TO ITS NAME, THE MAJORITY OF THE ULTRA DEEP SEA IS A VAST CAVE-LIKE WORLD. Shafts of light from an unknown source barely penetrate the dark, causing colorful diamond-like rocks to glisten against humid walls. The dim lighting makes the place seem like you're thousands of leagues under the sea... Eerily, an unceasing pulse can be heard like a heart beat that rumbles throughout the realm.[break][break]

Oddly enough, one is able to "swim" through this realm like Water-type Pokemon floating in air.[break][break]

One may stumble upon deep, cold pools of dark water and alien seaweed as they scout out the realm. Segments of this place open up into an astral sea, where islands of mysterious stone are suspended mid-air.

[break][break][break][break]

LIST OF PROMPTS

BELOW IS A POOL OF PROMPTS you may use when creating an expedition. A successful expedition requires the completion of AT LEAST FOUR PROMPTS, including any extra conferred upon creation. More will be added as time goes on and expeditions are completed.[break][break]

Click on the SPOILER TAG to reveal the list.

When he had first ventured into the wilds, he had been unsure about ever returning. He wasn’t a fighter by any means, but it was his desire to protect those around him that had him returning once again. He needed to get stronger, and if this was one of the ways to do it, then so be it. Though he was going somewhere new in his quest to get stronger.
[break][break]
Ultra Sea was weird. He hadn’t really been expected to be able to swim at such a depth without aid from a Pokémon, but here he was. Don’t get him wrong, he was a fairly strong swimmer, but a dislike for being wet kept him out of the water for the most part, so he had never really gone deep diving, especially not here to know how to dress. Because of that, he actually had dressed like he was on some kind of deep sea adventure.
[break][break]
Fiddling with the EMERALD green googles over his eyes, he swam until he came across what seemed like some kind of cave system. Swimming inside, he went from swimming to walking, which definitely made him feel a bit more at ease, but not by much.[break] Lasciel Elis

This place really wasn’t for people of her statue, she had decided. Sure, she had gone through the whole diving prep ritual, gotten proper gear and such. But she already felt some pressure. More than she had felt at similar excursion in the past, if the low ringing in her ears was any indication.

Not that anyone would openly give her the time of day trying to prepare for this, of course. No, she had to sneak by here, getting her preparations done by pretending to just be the child of tourists and whatnot. But it was worth it, she figured. For one, the sights down here were rather interesting. For the other, well, apparently this was one of those places where space-time distortions could appear. That was something she was always for, after all.

One could even say that it was all she was after these days. But to her, that was just a function of her condition. Not like people gave her the time of day, truly, when it came to interpersonal things. Not when they looked down on her. So, getting back her proper age was most important. Though it was nice underwater. As she approached the caves her informant indicated, she did see another. And being in this kind of three-dimensional space, she could, for once, look down on someone. That was nice! She decided to just observe that one until he either went in like a good little meatshield, or noticed her. She was not exactly hiding, after all.

As he swam into the cave, he had a strange feeling that someone was watching him. Not wanting to look the fool and look wildly around, he continued into the cave. Nothing immediately jumped out of him, but he knew it was too early to CELEBRATE, especially considering he couldn’t see very well unsurprising considering it was a cave system.
[break][break]
Knowing he had no choice unless he wanted to stumble around in the dark, he released Celestia from her pokeball. "Celestia, you mind provided me with a bit of light?” he inquired of the equine Pokémon.
[break][break]
The Galarian Rapidash simply lit up her horn with a low-powered Dazzling Gleam as to not temporarily blind her owner by the sudden change in lighting. Relieved now that he could see a bit better, he looked around, trying to see anything that could pose a thread. Seeing nothing immediately, he began to make his way deeper in the cave system but couldn’t quite help but cast a look behind him as he did so, unable to quite shake the feeling that he was being watched.[break] Lasciel Elis

A seahorse to bring light to the tunnels, huh? That was kind of meme-y, but okay. She could appreciate the effort anyway. Plus, it was useful for her too, as she followed. After all, she currently lacked good utility Pokemon for this sort of thing. Having had to sell off a lot of her collection after losing her age had taken a toll on that. And even today, she was selling a lot of what she caught on the Black Market, given that she did not have parents to rely on as any girl her apparent age should.

And like heck would she go to some kind of orphanage. That would be utter humiliation. No, she was used to living on her own, in her own place. That would not change, even looking like this. It was what gave her the mental fortitude to press on, following that strange diver for the time being, her small Kartana dashing through the waters nearby. Giving its slim body, it was easier to see the Pokemon by what water it displaced, rather than any bodily details at all.

For the time being, the two of them followed this man in a good enough distance to neither lose, nor alert him. Lash had a lot of experience stalking prey, after all. That translated well enough into stalking random people, too.

There was a certain BRILLIANCE about Dazzling Gleam that differed from other forms of light that could be used. Maybe because there was a bit of a sparkle when it came to the fairy-type move. It almost made the light cast by the equine Pokémon seem ethereal.
[break][break]
Perhaps if things were different. Like if he were a different person, he could get lost in the beauty of the shadows cast by the light Celestia gave off. Instead, he seemed more focused on his surroundings, or more precisely, the feeling that someone’s eyes were on. Something he tried to convince himself was his imagination.
[break][break]
Looking around again, he let out a low huff. “This is ridiculous,” he muttered under his breath. This place was getting to him. Maybe he was low on oxygen or something, except that didn’t really make sense since he felt like he was breathing just fine.
[break][break]
As focused as he was in trying to figure out whether or not the feeling of being watched was his imagination or not, he didn't realize that Celestia had stopped until he ran into her. Quickly taking a step back, he shot her a slightly irritated look.
[break][break]
He was about to child her when he thought he heard something in front of them. Though it seemed like it was still far enough away that the light that came from Celestia didn’t catch whatever it was. Frowning, he strained his eyes, trying to see what it was.[break] Lasciel Elis

That man seemed awfully unaware of his surroundings. Well, she assumed her was one. Which probably was wrong to do in any event. It was just the contours of the diving suit that made her come with that for the first input. And she was one to just assign monikers to others quickly, so that she could mentally put them into neat enough little boxes. That one, for now, felt like he was a kind of bumbling explorer type, so she went with that for now.

Plus, he did kind of act the part, going deeper with his little light show, until he suddenly stopped. Lash did the same, though she was a little more apprehensive when she noticed another living being in the vicinity. Though the whole ‘living’ part was probably questionable to begin with. Because what would soon fill the tunnel in front of them was not just half translucent for stylistic reasons. No, the pink Jellicent that came out of the tunnels was evidently a ghost type.
One that raised its tentacles angrily at the ones in front, apparently annoyed about something.
