Of course! Who shops at Tal-Mart!? You step outside and nearly get bonked by a doughnut with yummy creamy filling and mmmmm, it just begs to be bit into!

Good stuffs.

You head to Warget and decide to check out their electronics and gizmos. Of course everything is in display cases that'll zap you with hellfire and pain and nine years of bad luck and cold food if you even thought about stealing, but you're a good Bulbasaur and you mind your manners.

You take note of the wonderful selection, though you're not sure how much of this will have a use. Seems like the kind of stuff you'd want to make sure first!

You decide you're just browsing for now. But of course you play for six hours on one of their promotional store displays! The wonderful thing is the store reps are too busy or too lazy to care!

Okay, really, time to go home now. XD

Looks like someone can use a sane person to talk to, with all of that.

25 Wedge the Machamp

Interview Rapport: NEUTRAL, VERY INTIMIDATING!
+1 Intimidate (Psychic VS Fighting)
+1 Intimidate (Flying VS Fighting)

You decide it's time to talk to the only real competent cop in town, but first on your way there...!

Velo has gained 4 points of Belly from the Overly-Delicious Rain of Mega Doughnuts!

Ah yum, the creamy Oreo cheesecake ones are especially good today!

You find Wedge trying to piece together evidence at his Snippy Dee condo, which is likely because the police station is more of a chocolate gooey candy castle. You waltz in with your top coat and top hat and he freaks out for a second and then sweats. You introduce yourself in song and he just nods. And then you explain you want the latest scoop on the Squawkers because Biggs and Vivi are still trying to figure out how to tie their shoes and learn it's not a good idea to eat glue.

"...Yes," Wedge nods. "Don't mind me, wasn't expecting a legendary Pokémon that could pulverize me in two seconds to just show up. Since it's down to me, I figure I've got my work cut out for me, but if you're willing to help, well, can't argue against that, especially since Officer Biggs and Officer Vivi are just as helpful as using a plastic spoon to lift boulders. Sure, I get that the police station is utterly useless now and we lost virtually everything in that disaster, but any kind of giving up isn't going to get us anywhere."

"I've sure you've heard about Al already," Wedge tells you. "I can confirm the riddles are authentic, but it's a collecting process. I ended up resorting to grabbing one of those stupid fortune cookies for additional clues, and I got one that reads 'can't ignore it and can't sweep it under the rugs, our lovely hero Al just doesn't like bugs.' Obviously a riddle that he's weak against bug types, which should rule out anyone that's not. I've been hunting for others and I told Biggs he needs to be on the lookout for these too, but next thing I know, he's sticking a carrot in his ear."

"The other thing is it's hard to pick up on Squawker patterns, but what happened with Grootz and a few of the others confirmed there's one with some kind of obsession with noodles and turning victims into whole bowls of them," Wedge explains. "Then there's another that's similar, only with cookies. I think that one's name is Cookie Monger if I'm not mistaken and if my findings are right."

"I still need to confirm the rest of this and recollect what we lost," Wedge shrugs. "Take anything Biggs and Vivi tell you with a grain of salt, because they're not the brightest bulbs in the box. You're better off relying on your own eyes and ears for that."

He then gets back to piecing things together, and you decide to head back and check out what fun is going on back at Peep base!

I'll search (21) DeeeBeee Memorial Park (CANDY)

You decide to check out what this silly DeeeBeee Memorial Park is all about and what nefarious secrets it might be hiding! But of course, like everyone else today...

Carly has gained 4 points of Belly from the Overly-Delicious Rain of Mega Doughnuts!

Who doesn't love a good chocolate glazed doughnut!? That powdery one looks good too! Why choose when you can have them all!?

Okay, enough of these things.

You cruise on over to the park itself and lovely, it's a whole green and chocolate-flaked wonderland of mint chocolate chip ice cream! And you can't help but... try it.

@Tasty Tasty Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream - ICE (+3 Belly)@

Carly has gained 1.5 points of Belly from the Tasty Tasty Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream! Reduced damage because you're a blazing hot tiger dog!

Okay, while it's not as delicious to you as it might be to some other Pokémon, between this and the doughnuts, you're feeling like you've probably done enough indulging for today. And tomorrow. And perhaps the day after that, too.

The park had some lovely memorials devoted to the prestigious Doctor DeeeBeee, but they're a wreck now because what hasn't melted has been eaten a bit! Doctor DeeeBeee would be so disappointed! And the trees are now yummy chocolate as well. It's just tragic and you sure hope this Squawker effect is reversible. If not, well... crapola.

You wade your way through gooey ice cream and you find something interesting on the chocolate path that used to be made of stones. Huh, looks like funky color pieces.

Why, it's a =A Colorful Jigsaw Puzzle!=

You gather up the pieces and decide to head on back, wondering what piecing them together will get you!

I will chat with that Wocketz the Zigzagoon. #34

You definitely feel he could use a little cheering up. And you rush over to chat with him but along the way...

Marta has gained 4 points of Belly from the Overly-Delicious Rain of Mega Doughnuts!

You didn't think a cookie dough doughnut would ever exist, but lordy, it does and tastes divine! Why stop at just one!?

You find Wocketz is staying at the Bibbity Bopple Bop Hotel and was on vacation with Grootz before... tragedy struck!

Interview Rapport: POSITIVE!
+1 Shared Pokémon Evolution Stage

Usually Wocketz is cynical, bold, and crafty, but he seems a little down in the dumps today. It seems like he misses Grootz, though when you knock on the door to give him some company, it seems like he appreciates that.

You chat for a little while and then you ask what he might know about the Squawkers so you can get back at them for what they did to Grootz.

"Pasta, of all things!" Wocketz remarks. "I'm not even sure what to do with it or if I should bury the whole thing. I asked other folks around this town if they knew of similar cases. Turns out there very likely is a Squawker that specializes in this crap and goes by the name of Noodlegan! What a dumb name! Almost as bad as Taserface!"

"But no one knows for sure who Noodlegan is," Wocketz sighs. "I found out these Squawkers are going stealth by pretending to be normal Pokémon. So any one of these idiots could be Noodlegan! Or some other Squawker! I'd love to trash them all, but Noodlegan for sure!"

"I'm onto that freak, though!" Wocketz tells you with a dark smile. "There's a weird 'Noodle Offering' just outside of the Bibbity Bopple Bop Hotel! I see it every time I check out the back and that looks like something dumb Noodlegan set up. Now, one of the things it asks for is Chinese Krispy Noddles and I found out you can buy those at the mall food court, but I don't know where the Magical College Ramen and Military-Grade Tactical Linguini are supposed to come from."

Wocketz then decided to go through Grootz's old bag and there was something odd he found. It looks like a plastic bag of some strange dust that was wrapped up in tissue paper.

"Look, Grootz found this the other day and I don't know what it is," Wocketz shrugs. "I looked at it and something just didn't feel right about it, but you might know something more about it."

He then hands it to you and you eagerly unwrap it and want to see what it is! It really is a strange yellow powder and it sparkles like its made of magic! You open the bag and scoop some up to see what it does and... oh dear, now you've done it.
