Even though Mina hadn't put together a trial like the rest of the Captains had, she still gave out Fairium Z to any passing trainers. While most consider it a means of saved effort, Moon here likes to earn her prizes. So she helps Mina put together a little "trial" involving tools of trade relating to art that Mina partakes time in and general tickle lust after an encounter in Akala. Mina might not be the absolute most ticklish in the world, but Moon was absolutely delighted seeing how soft and delicate those feet were. Moon's methods would range from a combination of finger-tickling and fingerpainting, as well as drawing with a jabby inking marker, really decorating those feet and making them her own. If Mina moves too much and knocks away all the supplies, Moon has certain Pokemon on her side that can assist in some punishment. Mina tried to keep her composure, not knowing how bad this oddly-impromptu tickling session may become if Moon carried out the threat to use Pokemon capable of creating vines or roots to summon tendrils that would be all the more tickly. Watching the trainer focus on her feet like some sort of canvas, Mina almost couldn't help but smile, laughter aside, from the immersion Moon was in. Most people nowadays didn't seem to appreciate art in a world full of technology and heavy bias toward Pokemon battling. If this were to be made an official trial- maybe the task of decorating her own feet as creatively as they could think of with the motivation being the sweet and admittedly adorable song of laughter coming from the captain, could reward both the Fairium Z and at least a small spark of appreciation for expressing their imagination. Maybe this was the first of Mina's real trials... it might be fun to do this again with all sorts of other trainers...

Hey, hope you enjoyed the sort-of-not-really story here. This pic utilizes the same Moon from the Lurantis pic. Moon here is based on the female player I used in Moon as well, with maybe some elements of the Sun player too. She's on a tickling rampage now, but this time she's moving on to people. Soon, Moon will be tickling all of Alola! Who will ever stop her? Or at least put her in her place? Hinting at potential Moon tickles in the future someday...

I love Mina. She's a real laid-back and down to earth character who pretty much has the perfect personality for somebody as lost in art as she is. She's also just adorable. Despite these not being the first Mina tickles on dA, I want to address I wasn't aware of that by the time I started drawing this. My humans could use more work. I don't like the positioning of Mina's pupil in this one. I think it should be looking more down. Not my best inking or coloring jobs either, but I blame my utensils having a shitty day today for that. Also, I forgot to color in the string tying her big toes together. You'll just have to think of the string as white. My other complaint was that Moon wasn't barefoot herself, but-

we'll be patient with that.


Moon and Mina belong to Nintendo, Game Freak, The Pokemon Company, all those guys.
