There were any number of places Val would rather be than at the Berry Grove. They could be at home, reading or surfing the Internet or catching up on much-needed sleep... They could be at work, figuring out the next step for their research or using their powers to learn what they could from them... They could be wandering the graveyards of Carrefor, looking for more research subjects Pokemon to catch... But instead they were here, in the Berry Grove, digging around in bushes in the hopes of retrieving a berry or two, their hands getting scratched and stained and covered in debris in the process. Pokemon liked berries, that much Val knew. That was why they were here, to collect berries to help with future Pokemon hunts, hunts that might in turn further their research. Their own Pokemon were no exception to this rule; Val's Gengar was smiling from ear to ear as he floated through the grove, and their Nincada kept disappearing and reappearing with what looked suspiciously like berry juice smeared across his face. "Ri!" The sound of their Oricorio's cry jolted Val out of their reverie. "What is it?" "Ririri!" The Oricorio gestured with one wing towards a particular bush. As they approached the bush that their Oricorio had pointed out, despite Val's general distaste for their current chore, a hint of a smile appeared on their face. It looked like they had found what they had come for...

Val rummaged through the bush, being poked by stray leaves and branches along the way; after this went on for a minute or two, they retrieved four berries, two blue and two pink. They stopped to put the newfound berries in their bag before continuing. Val grimaced slightly upon looking down at their hands, which now bore subtle but definite stains matching the blue and pink hues of the berries they had retrieved. At this rate, their hands would come out looking technicolor by the time the day was done. There was, Val grudgingly admitted to themself, a certain charm to be found in the Berry Grove. The air smelled as sweet as the berries the grove held, and the place was generally fairly aesthetically pleasing. But they still weren't exactly happy about the excursion. Val heard the rustling of leaves and turned to find their Nincada burrowing his way into another bush, one larger and less dense than the previous one. As they stared at the quickly-disappearing posterior of their Nincada, Val sighed before crouching down and looking into the bush themself. If their Nincada was so interested in this bush, there had to be something they could gather from it... right?

Val grabbed three berries from the bush--two red, one blue--before hastily escaping the bush. Their Nincada stayed behind, evidently intent on gorging himself on whatever remained. A series of loud caws and cries burst out--from where, Val couldn't quite tell--before the Berry Grove fell eerily silent. Val had barely noticed the various chirps and tweets coming from the nearby Pokemon until those sounds had died away. Was it because of them, because of their intrusion into the Berry Grove? Were they and their Pokemon the reason for this unusual silence? Or- Another loud cry, the flutter of feathers, and one of the nearby trees shook, its limbs giving way to a swift-flying Pokemon that looked to be a Pidgeotto or Pidgeot--it was hard to tell for certain, as the Pokemon in question was moving so quickly that it was practically a blur. Val heard a Noctowl coo, and thought they heard a note of triumph in the bird's voice. Ah. So that was the cause of all that fuss. The good news for Val was that the tree's shaking had dislodged a handful of berries from its branches.

A flurry of activity broke out as Val bent down to grab some of the fallen berries, as a number of Pokemon roaming the Berry Grove ran or flew over to the tree to feast upon the fallen food. In the end, Val was only able to grab two berries for themself, one red and one blue. After putting the berries in their bag, Val glanced at their hands, grimacing when they saw that their fingertips has all turned a deep purple color after handling the berries. They wondered how long it would take to wash out the stains; they suspected that it would be no easy task. Electric lights flickered on in the Grove, and Val looked up, finding that it had turned dark beyond the greenhouse's roof. It had been light out when they arrived; how long had they spent there? Had it really been so long? Val looked around at their surroundings, quickly noticing a short tree with berries hanging from its branches. If they stepped on their toes and reached up high, they could gather a few more berries from the tree before calling it a day and moving on. Val stepped on their tiptoes and stretched their arms upwards...
