Taking a break was a very important part of having a job. If a person showed dedication to their work for so long, they may end up going insane. Hoshi knew firsthand what it felt like to devote himself solely to his work. It was near suffocating.
A lot of people are naturally surprised when they hear that Hoshi goes on vacations. He was a gym leader of Hiwada Town Gym, after all. That place was like an indoor vacation. However, Hoshi got sick and tired of being in paradise for so long. He practically grew up in that gym. He knew the ins and outs of that place, as well as all the faults that it had. To keep himself from wanting to practically destroy the building and build a new one, it helped him a lot if he escaped that place once in a while.
For today, Hoshi enjoyed himself on a little cruise ship. A Tour around Whirl Island was the main theme of this cruise. While the passengers sat in a large ship and enjoyed the many activities and food provided, the ship circled around the islands, giving beautiful scenic views.
Though, Hoshi wasn't focused on the scenic views. Instead, he focused on himself. With nothing but swimming trunks and sunglasses on, Hoshi sat on the deck of the ship, at the swimming pool area. He sprawled himself on a lawn chair and enjoyed the feel of the sun beaming down on his skin.
He had also invited his pokemon on this trip. His Grovyle, Baldur, had climbed all the way to the top of the sails. He liked being in high places. From there, he began to meditate. Hoshi's Lycanroc, named Heimdall, stayed at his side. Like a guard dog, Heimdall made sure that Hoshi wasn't in danger. He was always alert, even in relaxing settings.
It seemed that only Hoshi's Litleo, named Freya, was the only one to really happily enjoy herself. She spent her time swimming in the pool with a big smile on her face. Hoshi thought it was weird for a fire type like Freya to want to enjoy the water. Yet, there she was, having the time of her life. Some of the passengers also swam with her to enjoy the happy mood that she radiated.
Every once in a while, Hoshi checked in on his pokemon to make sure that they weren't causing any trouble. When he saw that they were alright, he would return to his sunbathing activity.

As the daughter of a ship captain, Sleigh was very much at home on seafaring vessels. When she was younger, papa would take her on trips all over the world. The little girl spent most of her time roaming the ship on her own though as papa was busy with captain duties. But she never felt lonely as the crew members pretty much treated her like a princess. As she grew older, receiving the princess treatment began to annoy her more than make her feel special. She started drifting away from these trips on her papa's ship and as her independent streak kicked in, she stopped going on them altogether. Sleigh was probably going through her teenage rebellious phase, or so her papa would say, as he laughed off her attempts at snubbing him. Even so they were still quite close despite what others may think. Now it wasn't as though Sleigh was averse to cruise ships as a whole. If she was then she wouldn't be on this trip today. She was always looking forward to vacations. As for how, it was a lucky ticket she had drawn while shopping in the port market the week before. And since she hadn't gone on a cruise like that in a while, she was pretty excited about getting a chance to, even if it was just a local tour around Whirl Islands, a place that was pretty much her backyard. Lounging around on a pool chair in her swimsuit with her faithful Octi waiting on her side, Sleigh certainly felt like a princess, sipping on her cold fruit punch. Old habits die hard. This was probably her last chance to enjoy a summer-like activity as fall would be rolling upon them soon and it would be way too cold to be going to a pool or wearing a swimsuit. Just like the old guy a few feet away from her, sunbathing on a lawn chair, she wasn't interested in the scenic view. She had already seen it dozens of times. Unlike the old guy however, she wasn't really too keen on sunbathing and had a pool parasol up giving her a bit of shade. "Octi, I need a refill..."Today's Sleigh was lazier and more spoiled than usual. The Octillery blinked and looked up as she took the silver haired girl's empty glass and slithered over to the poolside bar to ask for a fresh one. Meanwhile the slothful girl stretched her arms out for a bit, feeling really refreshed. It was amazing how a short vacation with no worries just wiped all the stress away. After the sun goes down, she thought about maybe heading to the indoor spa for a nice massage. Cruise trips with the works were the best~
