"Visionary Magic is half knowledge, half imagination," Pola explained, walking with her paws tucked behind her head. "You channel the energy for attacks through a special jewel and an incantation, and then unleash it like a Pokémon attack."
"It figures there's a lot of rules. Let's start from the top," Shannon cocked his head. "What's the jewel, and where am I going to find one?"
"Kayla, remember the strange, crystallized cave thingies that Gema mentioned that morning briefing?" Pola asked.
"I remember. I was in one. I was the one who reported it," she replied.
"It was an awesome party filled with all those bugs from the forest! They were so funny," Kari chimed in.
"Funny isn't the way I'd put it, but yeah," Kayla grinned.
"Wow, so this won't be too new to you guys. Yeah, those crystals have been around for a while. I dunno exactly how they appear or what those crystal dens are, but they've been around for a while. If you're compatible with one, you can learn Visionary Magic inside," Pola explained. She held up her necklace, the red jewel with the emblem-like wings on it. "They look exactly as you want them to look."
"So I just go into one of these and I'll find my jewel and learn a move? It can't be that convenient," Shannon sighed.
Pola shrugged. "I dunno. It was for me."
"And we're on the right track? You can sense these dens?" Kayla asked.
Right now, the team were walking through the woodland on the opposite side of the academy to where the Twinight Woods were. As far as Kayla knew, this was simply woodland, dense enough for ferals but not chaotic enough to be a mystery dungeon. The forest grew around the mountainside, so the terrain was dotted with hills, small cliffs, and a mixture of rough earth and mossy soil. It was too messy for any civilised Pokémon to settle here.
"Yep. I've always had a knack for finding these things, that's why I have a fair few Visionary moves up my sleeve," Pola bragged. "Most Pokémon only actually have one, so you're gettin' special treatment from someone with experience."
"Lucky me," Shannon's tone lacked all enthusiasm.
"Hey, I tried being flirty before. You weren't havin' it," the Plusle shrugged. "See, here's the thing with Visionary Magic. Don't go getting your hopes up. It's actually just ordinary Pokémon moves. They're normal Pokémon moves powered up with uh, it's kinda like a boost from your willpower."
"My... willpower?" Shannon was even more perplexed.
"I do my incantation, yeah? And then it's just me using Pokémon moves, something Plusle can't normally do. The move comes out only as powerful as I imagine it to be. It's still a Pokémon move, so it's still stuck with type matchups and all that stuff. And even if I like, wanted to be super powerful and say... tried to destroy the whole academy with it, I couldn't, even if I pictured that. Tri Attack can only be as strong as Tri Attack," Pola rambled, tucking her paws behind her head again.
