Raggamuffin Round 1
Tail Whip
(4)(4)(3)(1)
-1 Def to enemies
The ragamuffin points at Machoke, then at Azurill. Machoke wanders over, picks up the little Pokemon, looks at his "trainer" confusedly, and picks Azurill up. The ragamuffin gestures, but Machoke still isn't sure what to do. This Pokemon isn't cargo!!
A grubby hand emerges from the rags, pointing at Helios. Sandile immediately launches a Bite attack. A few enigmatic waves of the hand follow.
Bite
4 Dex +1 Fight +1 Brawl -2 actions = 4 dice
(3)(3)(1)(1) Helios takes a nap. Sandile misses, as he predicted. Then he opens one eye and gets ready for the riposte. (still counts as an action unfortunately)
Machoke tosses Azurill aside.
Vital Throw
4 Dex + 1 Fight +1 Brawl = 6 dice, never fails
(4)(4)(6)(2)(2)(4) Just shy of a crit.
3* Str (a Surprise) + 2 power +1 STAB -2 vit = 4 dice
(3)(1)(3)(5) Azurill takes 1 dmg
Bubble Beam
(4)(2)(3)(2) Hit
5 dice -1* vit = 4d6+1
(6)(6)(6)(5) holy Sandile takes 5 damage and faints.
Helios shrugs and rouses himself.
Strike
(6)(2) Hit
(6)(2) Machoke takes 1 dmg.
The little stowaway races out and picks up Sandile. +1 Str to orphan in a sort of reverse-Moxie. He raises his fists in the air! (Sandile back in the necklace Pokeball.) Machoke nods in understanding.
Raggamuffin Round 2
Nathan doesn't say anything at first. Â Just starts rubbing his temples in thought...
Kirlia picks up on that slight nervousness hiding among Shiva's other emotions. Â He doesn't say anything to Nathan about that particular emotion, but does inform him of the others...and if Kirlia picked up on it, Ventus certainly did too...
Nathan's feeling a little nervous and worried about this himself, despite what Ventus had just said...he had been wanting to avoid thinking about what he might say to Ventus if this had come up...he was nowhere near ready to show him Orthros...not by a long shot...and he had been planning to mostly smooth things over tomorrow morning...
And going out for dinner...well, it was probably just an apology thing. Â Whatever had happened between them, if that's how they were going to resolve it, so be it.
He shakes his head. Â Sighs. Â He's had too long of a day to be worrying about this right now. Â This could give him a chance to grab some more appropriate, meaty treats for Orthros, though...as well as talk with his mom for a little bit...(just really generic stuff, though. Â Just something to pass the time.)
"Alright. Â Go. Â I've had a long day, not up for a discussion right now. Â We'll talk tomorrow."
Nathan just goes over to one of the tables and sits down.  He looks rather tired.  By contrast, Kirlia looks rather happy.
Raggamuffin Round 2
Okay, Shiva could not help but to be somewhat stunned at the unusual power Azurill put into her Bubble Beam. Uhm... Must be the surroundings. Or the blue mouse indeed grew confident. At least the bigger threat in this battle has been dimished and now it was 1vs2 with the benefit on Shiva's side.
"Well done, Azu, keep it up like that! Once evolved, your Bubble Beam could even stronger. As for you, Helios... Try to make good use of the darkness and suprise your foe just for... I don't know what for."
Orders: How about two Bubble Beams and an Ambush from Helios? If it succeeds, we'll Strike again.
Accuracy Roll Bubble Beam1: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 2 Channel - 2 Actions = 5 d6
Accuracy Roll Bubble Beam2: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 2 Channel - 3 Actions = 4 d6
Damage Roll: 2 Strenght + 3 Power of move, no STAB yet = 5 d6
Additional notes: 1 CD to reduce foe's Dexterity by 1.
Accuracy Roll Ambush: 3 Dext + 1 Survival + 0 Stealth = 4 d6
Mechanics: Foe rolls Insight+Survival+Alert against me to see if ambushing succeeds. Fun!
Possible Accuracy Roll Strike: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 0 Brawl = 5 d6
Possible Damage Roll: 2 Strength + 1 Power of 'move' = 3 d6

"...Thank You , Nathan . Despite your willingness to continue our ... conversation , I urge you to take your time . When you feel comfortable speaking about the topic , We can began again , " Ventus respond , nodding his head to the young boy and taking Shiva by the hand . They got up from the table , and quietly exited the Center , with the researcher heading towards the restaurant. The empath has well learned the consequences of intruding on one 's country's , and did not desire a repeat argument with Nat e over Nightmare Land . All he wanted to do was have a nice evening with Shiva ...
Kirlia waves at them as they go. He's not feeling super glum right now, after all!
After the two of them have left, Nathan gets up again. "Alright, Kirlia, let's go find some treats for our new friend. Someone in town should have something a Houndour might enjoy, right?" Kirlia nods, still smiling. He's still wary of Orthros himself, but he's all up for solidifying a friendship!
While Shiva and Ventus are out, Nathan's going to look for some meaty treats for Orthros! He'll then return to the Center and pass some time with simple conversation with his mom, and then likely head to bed. It's been a loooonnnnngggg day...
Raggamuffin Round 2
Bubble Beam
(1)(3)(3)(4)(4) Hit
(2)(6)(3)(6) 5/7hp -1 pain.
Machoke is channeling the Ragamuffin's energy now. There's only one thing on their minds:
Revenge
4 Dex + 1 Fight + 1 Brawl -1 pain -2 actions = 3 dice
(5)(4)(2)
3* Str + 2 power + 2 Revenge +1 STAB -2 vit = 6 dice
(3)(4)(3)(5)(4)(6) Azurill takes 4 more damage and faints.
Now it's 1v1. But Helios is nowhere to be found!
Ambush: 3 Dex + 1 Survival + 0 Stealth = 4 dice
(2)(1)(4)(1)
Alert: 1 Insight + 4 Survival + 1 Alert = 6 dice
(3)(2)(4)(5)(4)(3)
The child tosses a splinter of wood behind Machoke. Machoke turns to look, and sees Abra floating toward him. He holds out his hand, palm outward, and Abra bounces off to fall heavily.
Strike
4 Dex + 1 Fight +1 Brawl -3 actions -1 pain = 2 dice
(1)(4)
3 Str + 1 power -2 vit = 2 dice
(1)(5) Abra takes 1 dmg.
The child smiles warmly and pets Sandile's pokeball.
Raggamuffin Round 3
Raggamuffin Round 3
Almost immediately Shiva was there and picked up her magician mouse. What an experience... Let's hope Azurill's developing self-confidence wasn't shattered here. That boy here and be lucky that it's relatively dark, because otherwise he'd see a potentially toxic expression from her. None messes with her beloved companions and gets away like it's nothing!
Before anything could happen, Cottonee has been summoned and was ordered to release not-literal toxic Fairy Dust at the foe one who dared to harm her Fairy-Companion. Doesn't matter it's a child that lives down here now, Shiva wanted those items, hand them over for money as soon as possible and then teleport to the Pokemon Center.
"Helios, we worked long and hard enough of your psychic powers... Now we need them more than ever! I know you can do that, I know there is potential in you, your foe is weak to them! At least TRY to use Confusion, show me that all the effort was not in vain! Blast your enemy, I am putting trust in you... I need those items and the money I will get for those, that's why we're here at all!"
Orders for this round: Cottonee will use Fairy Wind twice, I don't think I need to say anything about Abra. (Keep in mind the XP I've spend at some point earlier) If it fails, Strike.
Accuracy Roll Fairy Wind 1: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 2 Channel -2 Actions = 5 d6
Accuracy Roll Fairy Wind 2: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 2 Channel -3 Actions = 4 d6
Damage Roll:Â 2 Strength + 2 Power of move + 1 STAB = 5 d6 + 1 autodamage due to SE
Additional notes: Fighting is not very effective on Cottonee.
Possible Accuracy Roll Confusion: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 2 Channel = 7 d6
Damage Roll: 2 Strength + 2 Power of move + 1 STAB = 5 d6 + 1 autodamage
Additional notes: Fighting is not very effective on Abra/Kadabra(?). 1 CD to inflict confusion.
Possible Accuracy Roll Strike: 3 Dext + 2 Fight + 0 Brawl = 5 d6
Possible Damage Roll: 2 Strength + 1 Power of 'move' = 3 d6
Ragamuffin Round 3
Fairy Wind
(1)(2)(6)(1)(3) Miss. Machoke picks up an old door and hides behind it, the wind battering right against it. He looks to his "trainer" for orders, but cannot entirely understand what's being communicated.
He makes a quick face at Cottonee.
Leer
(1)(2)(6)
-1 Vit for Cottonee
Abra is clearly trying to use Confusion, but he doesn't have enough stored power yet. It is tough being an Abra.
Strike
(1)(2)(5)(4)(5) In this, Abra is successful.
(5)(5) Machoke takes 2 damage. 3/7hp -2 pain.
Fairy Wind
(5)(2)(3)(4)
(6)(2)(2)(1) +1 Machoke takes 2 damage. 1/7hp.
The urchin throws up his hands, this time in surrender. He recalls Machoke back to its ball, which he tosses to you in resignation. He keeps Sandile, of course. Shiva obtains 1 basic Pokeball, 1 Pecha Berry, 1 Persim Berry, 1 Potion, and 1 Super Potion. Plus the Machoke, which is still blinking a light from its button.
Azurill gains 3Xp. Helios gains 5XP. Cottonee gains 3 XP. Shiva gains 6XP.
The ragamuffin spits in his hand and offers it to Shiva to shake. He brings out a crumpled piece of paper, a portion of a letter. It just says, "Dear Sienna," and nothing more. He points to himself, then at the word "Sienna." (or more accurately, at the entire phrase, because it's obvious he can't actually read. He just knows this portion applied to him.)
Nathan obtains very cheap meats, the hearts and livers and things that no one wants. The tripe, if you will.
