“Plus Petalroot has a lot of bug and grass types... not that it stops anyone else from living here! That’s only because the environment feels good to us!
Petalroot is actually kinda cool because it’s within a forest, so it kinda feels like you’re still wild! Some Pokemon even prefer to hunt and gather for food, but some of us prefer the ones that Gin grows himself, so I usually buy his stuff!”
“But to answer your question! No I haven’t, actually! I’ve only lived here for a few years!”
“It was SO fun living like that!! I’ve made friends all over the world because of it!! So I’ve lived in trees, in towns, in cities, on rafts, all kinds of places!”
“We actually stopped at Petalroot once- It was just supposed to be a pit stop, but I remembered it so well because I evolved for the first time here! That was a REALLY crazy experience, and also kinda scary because I almost got eaten, but that’s not really important! I was okay in the end because of the Pokemon living here, and how they stuck together as a community really stuck with me! So once my dad let me fly on my own, I moved here permanently!”
“And Petalroot’s been a little more... lively, ever since!”

Star Sending with the Virbank Baddies
The preparations
Calling the gang
Rimi explains about the Star Sending event and gives the list of characters’ wishes. They all need to focus on the Bisharp trio: Clarent, Gladius, and Sabre.
They all need to go to different places. Rimi needs to go to Shopping Mall Nine, Noelle to check the southwestern Unova, and Edin to check all of it.
Rimi’s side
Rimi arrives at Shopping Mall Nine. It is bigger and modern compared to what humans had. There’s more shops, and not only that: there’s a food court and some sort of entertainment like cinema and arcade.
Rimi arrives at the store that has some battle items. The things she needs for Sabre are: some experience candies, Eviolite, and Covert Cloak. Sure those are expensive, but she has enough money to buy them. She bought some EXP Candy L, an Eviolite, and a Covert Cloak.
The next store is called “TM Galore'' where it sells Technical Machines. It has a big variety of TMs and they are sorted by type. So, Rimi needs two TMs for those Bisharp. She needs to buy something for Clarent and Sabre. She bought TM058 Brick Break for the former and TM088 Swords Dance for the latter.
For Eviolite, she needs to make it like Sabre’s “foe” Vel. So, she put it on a green necklace that bought at the jewelry store and somehow coincidentally looks like this.
Noelle’s side
Noelle has no big tasks other than checking the southwestern Unova (from Aspertia to Virbank). The first thing she does is go to a nearby grocery store in Floccesy, her hometown. She bought 100% dark chocolate for Clarent. Noelle loved it when she was a little, though her parents hated it.
And then she goes to Virbank to visit a malasada shop where Rimi’s mother Leia works. Noelle greets her with a kind smile and asks if this shop has something sweet. And of course Leia gives her a sweetest malasada made with the sweetest. Rumor that it contains Watmel Berry but it has other sweet berries as well.
She visits her house for a sharpening stone. And she has an old whetstone that she doesn't need anymore and took it.
And it’s time to convince the people living in Aspertia. Noelle visited Diego’s house first to convince them to get a souvenir from Paldea. They both didn’t get along well, but in the end Diego gives something. It’s a small replica of Artazon’s windmill that has a painting of Sunflora. Soon after she visited Cheren High and said that someone wants to talk to him.
And what’s about the mother and son that want gifts for each other. Well, Noelle has a little Pawniard figurine that she doesn't need and of course the Dark Gem. She hopes they both like those.
Edin’s side
For Edin, he travels all across Unova, but he doesn’t need to do much, so he arrives at Undella Town to see an ocean with his eyes. He sat until sunset. It was of course very gorgeous.
The gifts
Clarent
Rimi calls Clarent to Aspertia and gives the items she wants: a dark chocolate, TM058, a windmill, and a Pawniard figurine for Gladius.
“Here they are. I hope you enjoy it.” she says it with a very kind smile “Oh, I wanna show someone. Follow me!”
They both go to Cheren High to meet with someone.
An adult Eevee? That was unexpected because all the adult Eevees are mostly evolved, while one is still unevolved. That’s why Clarent might look surprised.
Sabre
Noelle arrives at Route 20 to wait for Sabre. Soon, a small looking Bisharp arrives. Noelle gives very good smile, while she has something on her back.
She wrapped everything in a Covert Cloak. Three EXP Candies L, an TM088, and a Eviolite (she says that she took it from Vel), although she has no idea who Vel was. But somehow, it was a miracle that it the exact replica of a necklace with real Eviolite on it.
Gladius
Edin calls Gladius to the beach at Undella Town.
“Oh, hi! I hope you’re doing well as I do. Here, I got ya.” he smiles and handles some malasadas, a whetstone, and a Dark Gem. The only thing missing is training lessons because everyone in the band doesn't know any tutor. But that’s not the main reason, the reason he calls the Bisharp is this:
They both see a beautiful sunset together, until the gang arrives.
The gathering
Rimi, Noelle, and two Bisharps arrive here in Undella Town to gather everyone here together.
The band stands together and smiles.
They both say with a delightful joy: “I hope you have a great holiday this year!”

MOD NOTE BELOW
This is longest post I made here. It probably beats the long interaction post with Fern, although it was text only.
It took me month to do and half of the text is the last minute preparation. I started drawing like week or two ago. I think I'm satisfied with the result so far.
Of course feel free to reply if you want since I have some items that involves Clarent and Gladius. And also if you want, you can do replies during the gifting process.

Clarent @ Destino: "Hmm, while I've never lead anything nearly as large of a kingdom, I've lead my Pawniard. So I think I'm qualified to say something you likely need to hear: You're not fit for leadership." Her voice is stern, but not unkind, "Would a leader hide behind another? And your parents, no less? Is this what respect and love means to you? To allow yourself to be coddled while you hide behind them, standing in the sidelines during a time of need?"
Though her voice does not soften, her tone shifts, "They're not going to be here forever, you know. As desperate as you are for your leadership, you have to understand the consequences to get there. Are you truly ready to risk that loss, or would you rather grow and make your parents proud?"
*And that was the moment that Theif knew she could convince Destino to join with her. Clearly the angry outburst from before had not completely left their system and the Bisharp’s words reformed it to reveal things she knew the Absol would never want anyone to know. There was a lot to unpack from their statements but now was not the time to ask. She looks at them closely and then decides to speak up.*
Theif: You know that we all make mistakes, right? Sure, some mistakes are worse than others but we can’t keep ourselves hidden behind a facade of ambivalence while we let our responsibilities wash past us. We have to learn from our mistakes and use that information to forge a future where we don’t make those same mistakes again. Being afraid of the consequences of our actions will only lead to missed opportunities for us to better ourselves.
*Destino looks towards the Blaziken with an unsure expression on their face, for once not quite knowing what to say. They stare at the Blaziken for a while and then turn away, almost ashamed at the state they got themselves into. Embarrassed at what they said.*
Destino: …
*Seems Destino is more vulnerable at the moment.*

Clarent: O-oh. Well, I can't say it's a particularly uncommon name for a Pawniard, but I'm rather fond of it.
Gladius: So, no particular meaning, really?
Clarent: Oh no, there's still meaning. It was our previous lord's name, after all.
Gladius: ...You mean the one the Lady overthrew before I even hatched?
Sabre: Heh, bet the Boss hated that.
Clarent: In my defense, our previous lord had also been your grandfather. Though, I suppose sharing a name with a great dragon also seems rather interesting, right?
