The sight of her in such... provocative clothing is a pleasant surprise, to say the least. Frankly, he's speechless for a moment as his single blue eye dares to trace her rich curves from head-to-toe. Though eventually that enticed shock settles into a smirk of his own as he blinks out of his stupor and looks back up at her.

It wouldn't do to regress to being that shy NARANJA ACADEMY schoolboy with a crush again. Confidence was currency here, and he'd match her chip for chip until it was time to go all-in.

"Wine tastes better when it's enjoyed with lovely company," He responds, unabashed in the way he watches her move as the scent of sweet perfume graces his nostrils. "Sure. Lead the way." Shutting the door behind him, he eventually strides in behind her, biting his bottom lip at the sight of those amazing hips in sway.

Upon reaching the kitchen countertop, however, the blonde regains his composure and clears his throat as he sets the bottle upon its surface. Afterwards, he's content to lean down and cross his muscular arms across its edge as he watches her look for a corkscrew opener and a few glasses.

"So I'm bad at hiding my expressions, hm?" He smiles, wondering if she wore the white lace for just anyone she invited over under such circumstances. "And here I thought it was my air of mystery that attracted you to me..."

Even in the face of impending danger, Cade turns to notice the little things. The young girl's readiness for action, for one. He scrutinizes her with a quick glare.

"These must be one of those distortions I've heard about so much, then? You've been through one before?" It certainly didn't seem like child's play, considering the long-clawed creature standing before them.

Suddenly, it readies its claws (SWORD DANCE). And, before the young girl can act with her KIRLIA, Cade decides to buy her that chance they're looking for.

"Beto, VITAL THROW!"

His little PANCHAM charges forward, paws at the ready. When the creature attempts to attack with a swipe, it seizes its arm and throws it against the interior lighthouse wall. The strike shakes a few picture frames loose from their nails.

”Is she your Oricorio? She’s really sweet.”

"She's more capricious than she looks," Cade responds, matching the young woman's smile with one of his own. His blue seems to sparkle at her beauty for a moment, though he curbs the desire to act on that impulse for now. Flirting at concerts wasn't really his thing.

That being said, he certainly doesn't care to SCREAM ADRIAN along with the others when told. 'SAVE IT FOR THE SHEEP, ALREADY TAMED', right?

When the fanfare and sharp guitar riffs die down a little bit, however, Cade turns back to his present company and realizes his Oricorio remains on her shoulder still. She's scared from all the noise, certainly, but refuses to rejoin her trainer just yet. So stubborn.

"I was headed to the tiki bar to get a drink," He says to the long-haired beauty. "Perhaps you'd like to join me while I convince this one to leave your shoulder? If not, you're free to take her home with you." He teases, prompting the chirping equivalent of a 'hmph!' from the little bird.

The ocean was a very large and mostly unexplored place. Diving to the bottom of it for riches was quite a dangerous endeavor. Even so, the Splashfest surrounded such a perilous endeavor with a great degree of wholesomeness and good spirit.

It made swimming down into the deep blue dark a lot easier.

Hopefully, Cade thought, this trick move wouldn't take as many tries as the Magikarp had. It was simpler, anyway... though only by a few steps. Funny, considering it was named after Magikarp's much more impressive evolution.

Regardless, he sets off on his rental Mantine, finds a wave, and attempts it.

Another day, another dunk. Would mint frost survive a third attempt? Or would Cade ruin his streak? It was time to see! So he pulls his arm back and lobs a throw at the target.

It was time to go underwater once more. His Dewgong is excited for the exercise. Regardless, Cade makes sure they descend at a good pace and not too speedy. He wouldn't want to faint on accident.

A young lady, who appeared prim and proper to Cade, sat on the dunk tank now. He felt a bit guilty about taking a shot at her. Regardless, he takes a deep breath, pulls his arm back, and casts his throw.

He meets an eye with Adrian Malcolm. Hadn't he dunked him before? Was it too early again?

Regardless, Cade reels his arm back and makes an attempt.

They dive down underwater and hope they'll find something worthwhile today. Yesterday, it had been another broken pokeball. Cade had fixed it until it was in working order, sure, but today he was hoping for something a little more... expensive.
