Gym Leader Howl vs Spira Round 4
Howl's bushy eyebrows go up when you whisper that name.

The presence begets an Ominous Wind.

(4)(4)(3)(4)(3)(6) Spiritomb faints already! Howl looks amazed by how much you held back earlier. The presence in the room fades, giving you just a glimpse of a Cheshire grin fading away.
Howl is worth 20XP. "Let's go somewhere more pleasant and I will enter you into the records."
In a dim sitting room, he borrows the Trainer ID Dagny fixed for you, and scans it. A tube rattles and dispenses a small metal ammo box. He opens it up, showing you a dark striated badge flecked with holographic nodules. "This is the Hornblende badge. It will make your Pokemon wiser. I am also making a log of all the strategies you employed in our battle... in a way, our fight will live on in other fights. Stop by any time you want a drink, and you can take this one with you."
He gives you a Brandy, which is an "energy drink" akin to Lemonade. It's only healthy for evolved Pokemon and physically mature humans.
"Congratulations!"
(Time to spend some EXP!)
-79xp is spent for Hida to learn Flamethrower and Clear Smog (now at 1)
-16xp is spent for Spira to increase Crafts to 3 (now at 9, if my math is right)
also, how much cash do I get, and is the Brandy volatile/flammable?
Spira looks at Howl quizzically when he reacts that way to the name, if he had to guess that reaction would constitute recognition. Once things 'cool down' after the battle, Spira asks Howl, "Considering the way you reacted earlier, how do you know her name? That girl never even had the chance to leave Sinnoh, so how?" Despite the interrogative nature of his questions, Spira tries to remain calm.
Oops, I wrote down the cash in my notes but not onscreen. It's $1500.
"I don't recognize the name, no. However, I felt something of what it means to you. I have extraordinary senses when it comes to the shadowy realms beyond the physical world. Spiritomb felt it too, and had to be restrained by my will to keep from attacking you personally. Do you want to tell me more about that name? I won't pry."

With that, Spira paper-bags the brandy, and heads to the Pokemon Center to heal up.
Cottonee's eyes go wide as saucers! Her fairy nature is very visible when this happens.
You can invent a flower for this to be, if you like! Or should we make it an ancient version of the Devil's Tongue fern?

-1 Def for Empoleon
Empoleon charges at Sentry, getting faster and faster, until it's using its steel-tipped wings to support its body as it crashes full tilt into Sentry!
It's a pretty powerful attack, though not a legendary one.
Waterfall 1
(5)(5)(2)(1)(6)(6)(3)

Flinch: (1)(6)(2)

Rock Tomb 3
(5)(5)(6)(6)(3)
(2)(1)(2)(3)(4) No damage.
-1 Dex for Empoleon
"That worked a lot better than Waterfall... guess I've got your typing narrowed down! But aren't these old forgotten moves cool? It's so hard to find a Pokemon with them still."
Rock Smash 3

(5) Sentry takes 2 dmg 5/11hp -2 pain
Rock Tomb 4
(4)(2)(1)

And Sentry's Leftovers restore 1 HP again! Â 7/11 HPÂ -1 Pain (you didn't account for her Leftovers after Round 1)
"Oh yeah, they're definitely cool moves. Â It's a shame that the fully powered versions are all but lost for the most part."
Sentry looks a little jealous that Empoleon gets to use its cool moves. Â No fair! Â Why isn't she allowed to use hers?
"I think that's enough for now, Sentry. Â Let's save the rest of your strength for later. Â Ya did well against Empoleon, though, even without using any effective moves!"
The Sandstorm subsides once Sentry is withdrawn if we're going by the book's interpretation of the weather abilities.
"Alright, time for my next pokemon after a trip to the PC!"
Nathan's next pokemon is going to be Porygon-Z!
"I got this one waaaayyyy back at the start of my journey, during the Spring Festival at Ginger Town! Â I'll tell ya, Shuckleball is a blast to play, and I'm not just saying that because the prizes are amazing!"
Porygon-Z is holding the Lucky Egg, and Download increases its Strength by 1!
Porygon rolled a (3).
Empoleon stays out.
"I played Shuckleball once! It was great! Porygon-Z is a bit of an offensive powerhouse, isn't it!"

This is a pretty rare move too!

Two pokemon down, two to go, and Nathan hasn't even lost a pokemon yet!Â
However, Nathan's swapping pokemon as well anyways! To who?
"Alright, this next pokemon is one of my most amazing catches for sure! Got her in the Safari Zone! Didn't manage to place in the top 4 of the Safari Cup, though...didn't manage to catch as many good battlers as I would have liked. This pokemon's definitely been working hard to get stronger and evolve since then, though! Time to be amazed again!"
Mizu's next! She's holding the pink, crystalline Eviolite. It blends in very well with her sparkly pink dragon hide as she coolly analyzes her opponent...which is probably a stark contrast to whatever Flick's reaction is to seeing that Nathan has an incredibly rare Shiny Dratini. A long extinct pokemon, a typically extremely pricey pokemon, a Shiny form of a rare species...Nathan sure has a lot of unique pokemon friends, doesn't he?

"Well done. Took care of Pokemon without much problem, and kept partners not hurt badly. Takes great skill and power to do that. You are a Wise Woman, and have become an great fighter. Think.....believe you become better and better in time."
Simple, but heartfelt praise from the sagely monk. Not exceptionally rare from him, yet still a much valued thing he gives!(...)
Oh.... It did take Shiva a tad bit off-guard to be prasied for her success here, causing her to timidly look away from Terra and instead muster the suuuper-interesting stony ground. "...You think so? *happy blushing* That's very dear of you, thank you!~" A bit hasty and rushed, she adds "B...B-but it wasn't that hard maybe, I was a having a clear advantage with Primal Glaceon here against that turtle! You others are...more natural and enthusiastic fighters than I am! >o< ....E-either way, thank you, haha." Being called a 'Wise Woman' is still flattering her a lot, but it only shows on the outside by a inwardly smile of hers.
Her inner voice speak up to her, asking her that she can gladly accept such praise - 'My dear, you deserve it! Come on, it's fine. Rejoice a bit about his honest words, will you?~'
Quote:Shiva uses the chisel.
(5)(2) She gets a Sunstone and a shard of dawnglass.
(4)(2) This time she finds a mold fossil, an imprint of an ancient flower. It doesn't look like it'll have any DNA, but it's pretty cool nonetheless.
Shiva's being extra-mindful about her mining, she's knows what she's searching for and she probably wouldn't want to leave until she has managed to achieve what she longs for, the chisel is perfect for that and she's learning to to use it fastly. All her craftings have trained her hands to handle such delicate tasks quite decently, yay!~
Just when she has started to work on a low-hanging stalacite, she manages to catch a glimpse on it: There's a tiny lil' bit of that typical red shine only the sunniest of stones could radiate!! She holds back a screech of excitement and eagerly gets to baring it, careful not to accidently break it. Then, some minutes later, she can finally reach out and close her hand around it, she holds her finiding high to get a good look at it in the light Delphox's magical torch:
It's a real and authentic Sunstone, freshly mined, and it's hers. Her heart can barely handle that fact, it is rejoicing~, it is singing~ and celebrating~; it was undenyable that now she will be able to fulfill her most beloved Pokemon's greatest wish: That simple insight already brough tears to her eyes that she was quick to wipe away with the sleeve of her Ranger's Cloak before Terra could start to worry whether something's wrong with her and before any of her Pokemon could get a false impression and desire to comfort her.
Still, a faint sob of delight escaped her nevertheless as she smiled down at this precious stone she was now holding, for how long has she waited for that moment?!~ It's a wonderful reward for this job down the mines, and it's all Shiva could ask for. Instantly she retrives Cottonee's Pokeball, currently a new and fresh one instead of the one she came in from the side of Professor Mallorn, and shows her her finding through the transparent half. "*delightful and melodic chuckling* ...Look what I've just found, my dear one... Yes, sure it has your name engraved on it. ^^ You've gotta be patient for just a bit longer though~!" (In short, , Shiva's showing Cottonee the stone without actually summoning her, how does she react to it?)
Ah, and dawnglass is suuuper-pretty, but not as pretty as her special shard of duskglass she's wearing as a charm! But she enjoys how it is giving off a tiiiiny bit of that typical sparkling of the matching Evolution Stone. That ancient flower fossil is another nice piece for her collection of small treasures she has gathered in her journey through the region, aww!~ Is it, maybe, a flower/plant she recognizes? It's likely extinct, but she has read about prehistoric plants once or twice at home.
Once everything's been wrapped up, she soon meets up with Terra again, shows him eagerly what she has found and asks whether he too ended up being lucky - (Windos, this is the moment were we could handle out whether your Sunstone switches ownership or not, we can flashback to this, alright?) - and, of course, thanks him for his aid with this trip to the mine. "That was great fun, happy that you agreed to spend the morning with me here! I hope you enjoyed it as well...?" She would also give him a hug, but knowing that he's not much into that she instead goes for an appreciating pat on his broad shoulders. "Let us get going then and meet up with the forman again, shall we...? I've got some business to do in town, busy. But, we'll surely see one another again, Terra, the latest tomorrow morning!~"
Mechanics:
Unless there's anything to add from GM's side, that should wrap up the Mining Encounter then. That was fun!~ I'll continue with Shiva's further actions and plans then.

She was just checking the time on her cell on her way back to the local Pokemon Center, now with her Ranger's Cloak off and her messy hair comfortable opened again. It appears that within the Mine she didn't have any cell reception, or she just turned it off, but either way she spots Heart's message just now.
She makes haste to arrive at the Pokemon Center where she'll instantly approach the current Nurse Joy in duty to carefully hand her her injured Gloom - "Stone Edge by a wild Pokemon happened, that's a naaasty move...! The worst wounds are treated, but please, can you take care of him until he's up and about again? ... It's okay, Gloom, don't worry too much, you'll be in professional hands. Let them care for your injuries and don't fend them off with your scent, alright? I'm trusting in you concerning that!"
Phew, with that worry off her mind, she finds the next free table and some snacks and texts back to Heart that shea inside the Pokemon Center at the moment where she can meet up with him, and when they eventually do there or actually wherever, she'll greet him excitedly. "Hello Heart!~ Got your message, and yes, I'd be happy to trade for this TM that teaches a Pokemon how to release a wave that'll SHOCK the foe guaranteed! ^o^ Kyuu would rejoice over it for sure. What, ehm, would you want to have for it? ...1000$, maybe? With all those Move Tutors dwelling here, that could be useful. Oh, or speaking about Tutors, I could help a Pokemon of yours to master a new move in return, as well. Your choice! But, ehm, definitely not today, I've got things to do, I'm sorry."
"No problem. Here the TM." Heart give the TM on her hands while he get the money. "Thank you. I just going to do a few things. I will gonna ask the Tutor thing in the near future my friend!"
