Simply because it contains the small word 'hero' it'd tickle her interest one way or the other. But now that (if allowed) has picked up that book and pages a little through it, she gasps a little before she looks back at the Librarian. "E...excuse me, where did you got this book from and...how much would it cost? I know someone who......." *maybe it's not too wise to share that one in the group has evolved his Pawniard with the neat nickname into the white figurine*....who would like this book." (Look, @Nylon, I found a possible gift for you, unless it'll cost me an arm and a leg.)


Humm. I'd guess the Apricorn seedlings are the most interesting thing due to long-term investment and having the knowledge to grow them healthily, but can it be determined which kind Apricorns ( =which color) they'd bear eventually? Or can I even choose?

But before that: Does the owner/vendor allow Shiva to try that full witch outfit once just for see how she'd look? C: Wearing THIS and having Delphox or Lilith or Yena by her side she'd certainly catch the eyes of people (and her group companions, lolz), but for now she's trying to figure out how SHE feel. Or WHETHER she 'feels' anything while wearing this cool costume. "Oh hey, do you want to try on the hat once, Raphael? Don't tell Ventus - poor one would get a heart attack." Melancholy washes over her face and emotions upon realizing that.


'F...first techincal society...? *rattle rattle* ...AH! The paintings at the Candelabra, right!' remembering them, Shiva smiled a little before a spectral candelabra appeared behind her, spooked her massively and unbalanced Ventus..... Again it shows unintentionally that the oddball of a researcher is still vivid in her mind ._. "The first technical society?" That's spoken out now. "If I remember correctly, he found this somewhere on Route 4. Was this society spread all over Chresire before their...'Fall'? Did they 'fall' with King Sarimanok?" He seems to be vivid and almost omnipresent as well. "But, ehm... It's been a gift by a dear person, I wouldn't really wish to part with it."

Librarian: "If you wanted to own that book, it would be $250. I also let people pull up a stool and read right here in the booth, though the lighting isn't perfect."

The Hero seems to be a human Pokemon Trainer - he has a full party of six, three Steel types and three Psychic types.  He goes on a journey using the magical powers of his armor, made from "long-dead Pokemon" and carrying some of their powers forward.

Nurseryman: The Apricorn seedlings would be random. After two months you'd know what color they are.

Dressmaker: "Oh yes, oh yes, you simply must try it on! It will look wonderful on you! Look, there is a dressing room at that end of the tent; this is why I chose to locate my booth here!"

Clockmaker: "The FTS looong precedes Sarimanok. Even the first Kings don't really overlap with the FTS, I believe. But yes, they spread all over Creshire, particularly in the mountains where they could mine things. It is believed they had a massive stronghold north of Mt. Sentry."

"Gonna be a long walk if we do that.  Unless we were to use Teleport to get to a nearby safe location we've both visited beforehand.  Happen to have a pokemon that knows the move?"

At that comment, Terra couldn't help but frown and shake his head.

"No. I travel by foot, or by river when able. Never one to been in a hurry, so that worked out fine. Hmm....*Looks down at the portfolio, and leaves through it* Ah. Ventus said you are fast, and have several fast Pokémon that are.....'able to transport multiple people swiftly and expediently. …May I hitch a ride with you to the outskirts of town?"

He says the last part with a certain amount of reservation and timidness, as he wasn't sure if he was over imposing on them or not. Great as his desire to fight Nathan was, he didn't want to overstep polite boundaries and alienate someone....again.

Heart was caugh off guard when Terra ask him to a challenge. "We barelly meet each other and already want battle? Eager to fight like a TERRAkion heh Terra? But I have no problems with that. I kinda curious to see what kind of pokemon you might have. You better be...PUNpare for my style of battle Terra, because you will have your own Heart out! Yeeey!" Say Heart showing why he is called the PUNisher. That smile do not hold for a long time. "*Snif* Ventus would love that joke...he always makes the best jokes..." From humoristic to depress...Heart indeed still a crap today.

Contrary to one might expect, the rugged wanderer let out a deep, booming chuckle at the collecter's puns, shaking his head in plain amusement.

"Heh.....good jokes."

He then extended a hand to Heart for a handshake, a light smile present on his face.

"Thank you. Like people with a good sense of humor, so we will get along well. Friends?"

Well, that was quick and direct.....just like him, really.

She agreeingly nodded to the meaning behind her last name, smiling mildly as she remebered this beautiful AND useful plant before that smile made room for an.....IMPRESSED and WONDERING stare (not intimidating in any way) as she had to check the clock on her cell. It was still early (7am or such) and he has waited here for a couple of hours...? Whoahw. "Eh, I'm sorry.... Been just a little...suprised, but it's quite a thing that yu've waited here for us. This certainly speaks for you."
Mental note: Terra seems to be a guy who takes his responsibilities very seriously.
Noted.

Terra seemed slightly surprised at Shiva's own praise for being so prompt and punctual, as he didn't think all that much of getting up and waiting around for his charges, but he just decided to accept it with a nod. If she wanted to compliment him on for wanting to introduce himself towards them all, the he'll let her and not make a big deal of it.

The opening that one of these responsibilities seems to be providing 'extraordinate good care' to her allured another amused chuckle, this totally sounded like Ventus. ......Argh, again a she caught herself thinking of him and had to shake her head faintly. ....N...Not right now! "I'm trying to not get into trouble, so I'm carefully positive that I won't cause you headaches." (Given his hinted enormous heigh, I guess Shiva willl be very fine to seek his protection in dire situations. Good call.)

Another nod was given at the pretty lady's optimism at avoiding getting into mishaps that would require dragging her out of them, along with a sigh of relief. The less he has to worry about his charge and (hopefully) future friends, the better for ALL of them....

Clapping her hands together in joy over the sensation that he owned seemingly another fairy, it was obvious that she'd love to meet her. "What a neat nickname~ Ah, and please do not worry about her being playful or devious at first as I am used in the handling of Fairy Types." A delighted and melodic chirp from her dearest fluffball emphasized this and her own desire to see that Pokemon. 'Must see, may I? Pleeeeaaaaasssee! Do want!~'


The request to battle though.....that somehow hit Shiva. She seemed to become hesitant and insecure again given how she fidgeted through Cottonee's fluff suddenly and avoided Terra's gaze. After a little though, she spoke up once more in a more serious tone, agreeing to what she believed was the reason for this ask. "I see.... U-usually I'm a little more hesitant to battle than the others of the group, enjoying different approaches and a having different mindset about Pokemon Fights. But, ah, I'm not against them, no. So, ehm.... I'm fine with a battle if you want one. Not today, I'm busy myself.... But how does tomorrow morning sound to you? Here in Cress City, battles are less accepted but we can just find a place outside the townline in the nearby park. Shall we...exchange contact data to arrange things and being able to, well, stay in contact? You're having a cell or a PokeDex?"


Once that has been arranged, she is fine to leave him alone again but will stay and respond if wanting to know more. First Impression: Quite positive. A direct and blatant guy but seems true and honest.

Terra seemed slightly surprised at Shiva's own praise for being so prompt and punctual, as he didn't think all that much of getting up early and waiting around for his charges, but he just decided to accept it with a nod.

However, he politely shook his head in disagreement at her assumption of Genie's Typing, though he knew that she couldn't have possibly know that and therefore thought nothing of the mistake in identity.

"Not a Fairy, but she likes being compared to them....considers it a compliment. *Closes his eyes and nods his head, before resuming staring at Shiva* Will introduce her to you two later, when you are not busy. I feel like you all would get along really well. Only if that is alright with you two, though."

The last part was said in semi-rush and with a somewhat self chastising experssion, as if he only remember that springing a meeting on someone without their agreement was.....hastily and impolite. Hopefully he wasn't being too forward or direct with someone...again.

Her offer to battle him tomorrow morn and trade contact details cleared away such embarrassment immediately, however, as her gave her a small smile and offered his hand to shake on it.

"That is fine. I promise it will be a good match between us, no matter how it is....conducted. Thank you, Shiva. "

Pulling out his Pokedex from on of his pants many pockets, he looked up the number after a bit of fiddling with it with almost adorable befuddlement, before looking at her and rattling it off to her and she presumable did the same. There, they both have each other's numbers now! One step closer to doing his given duties well, and perhaps becoming a good friend too someday.


 He then lets her go to do whatever she had planned for her day before he dropped in her life, and awaited for the others group member to get up so he can introduce himself to them...

Nathan vs Terra Introductory Battle Round 11


Draining Kiss 3
(6)(6)(1)(4)(1)
(3)(4)(5) Flygon takes 3 dmg and faints

Sand tomb:
Poison: (5) Success...this round. It'll only get worse.

Closing his eyes and letting out a somewhat disappointed but accepting sigh at how his Genie's life was sapped away by surprisingly strong Fairy Kisses (Something else he didn't expect from the knight....he still has a lot to learn), he quietly returned her to his Pokeball . 


He didn't immediately summon his next Pokémon, however. Staring at Nathan with an utmost seriousness with arms hang by his side, he calmly began to address them.

"You have beaten my strongest fighter and brother in spirit, Shiranui. You have beaten my quickest and my most excitable doggy Melly. You have beaten my most dangerous and bold partner Basteele *The afformention individual huffs at that remark, but doesn't get particularly mad at it* . You have beaten my new and healthy friend Mikey. And now, you have beaten my most clever and mischevious desert princess Genie. Few have ever.....accomplish defeating most of my team, even when I was holding back. Yet you did."

Lapsing into silence for a moment to let this sink in, the rugged wander then gave the boy a genuine smile full of warmth and pride for them.

"Well done. Ventus was right in saying you were strong as you were fast, and smart as you were caring. He said you would be a 'hard nut to crack' , but it is another thing to have it proven."

Slowly, his hand reached for the very last Pokeball on his belt - a Net Ball - , and he calmly took it hand without once breaking sight of the boy.

"The battle is not over, though. You still have one last Pokemon of mine to face. My most beautiful and....persevering fish...…"

He flicked the button on the Net Ball.

A huge torrent of light began to pour forth from it as it open, seemingly without end, as the form began to materialize and wrap around Terra, growing larger and larger and larger and larger still...…!

Finally, after what seemed like ages, the massive being was fully summoned, as the light faded away to reveal Terra's last Pokémon coiled protectively and gracefully around him....


A Milotic.

".....Lapis Lazuli, or simply Lovely," Terra finished, looking upon he gorgeous aquatic serpent with pure admiration, to which it returned with equal strength and compassion. He pointed towards the battlefield, and with a nod of their head, they unwrapped themselves around their master and slithered forth to face Gallade, looking calm, composed, yet ready to face them will all their might. 


He will prove himself and growth towards his caretaker and master.

Lovely's Music: The Lost Scientist.

Let the final battles begin.
