Alright, I'm taking a break from wondertrading to give Windos a chance to catch up on trading and send in some 'Mon themselves, so now I can type up a reply in GameThread, Iron. After that, I'm fine with the next Day starting.

Just kidding, I know that he isn't relevant to those conversations at all due to those lurches not affecting him one bit for now, so being excluded from them is fine...for now. He'll just do other things in the meantime, then!
Don't worry, I'm sure there'll be plenty of time for Terra to get in on the discussing soon enough

You're also doing a longer battle as the first Encounter, Spirit? Whoahw, that means practically all of us will be having Pokemon out fighting, I hope we're not stressing you too much with dicerolling Iron, especially since your Home PC died off at the worst time.

Weather is reported to be mild all across the region.
The Zigzagoon are out and about in Cress City, pursuing tasks important only to themselves.
(Did Heart buy the say TM'S? Protect and Sandstorm?)
Yep! And Gargryph is willing to learn them.
(Excelent!)
After buying the say items (what is the cost of those two TM together @Iron?) Heart finally release Gargryph. "Good morning Gargryph. I have a gift for you. For your help in the battle of past day in the Skull Ruins." Then Heart show to him the TM-Protect and Sandstorm. "These is the TM-Protect and Sandstorm. With those together, you will get a great advantage against your foes. After you learn those two we will go training okay?"
$6000.
Let me just step in here and maybe save Heart some money.
According to my notes, TM 37 Sandstorm is $2800 at the Department Store, and TM 17 Protect is $2000 at the Department Store (yes, I've been keeping track of which shops carry what when they have something unique to purchase). So the total would be $4800 in that case.

Awesome! Thank you Dragonstrike. You save my money :3
RE: [Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins - Dragonstrike - 07-15-2018
BTW, I went and grabbed the proof of the lower TM costs, just for good measure. This is from when the Department Store's TM list was first mentioned:
(12-31-2017, 12:22 PM)Iron Wrote: The TM floor is built like a library, with shelves of TMs in numerical or alphabetical order. The shelves can reshuffle themselves by sort order, and they have a few copies of each TM. TMs are $3000 unless otherwise indicated. Looks like a lot of the TMs have been priced based on their effectiveness on the Steel Type. The attendant also explains that even Stair City cannot reproduce TMs very reliably.
Check with me for compatibility before buying. If a Pokemon has the TM in its movelist, even as a ?, it will work 99% of the time.
Just because the TM is learnable in the handheld games does not mean it's learnable in Pokerole.
Moves that can be learned by every Pokemon in the handheld games (ignoring Magikarp etc), can be learned by every Pokemon in Pokerole.
Moves that can be learned by great swathes of Pokemon, including Normal types and common Pokemon, I will usually approve for any suitable Pokemon. (Check out Rain Dance's list for an example of a TM that can be learned by any Water Type or storm-themed Pokemon).
1. Hone Claws
2. Calm Mind
3. Roar $2000
4. Toxic $3500
5. Hail
6. Bulk Up
7. Venoshock $2500
8. Sunny Day
9. Protect $2000
10. Smack Down
11. Return $1000
12. Double Team $2000
13. Sandstorm $2800
14. Low Sweep $3500
15. False Swipe $1000
16. Will-O-Wisp $3200
17. Thunder Wave
Keep in mind that this is just the list of TMs available at Stair City's Department Store and what they cost there.
RE: [Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins - Dragonstrike - 07-15-2018
Important question here, @Iron: Does the +2 Defense buff from Hail/Sandstorm stack with Defense buffs from moves or not?
Spiritmon, you'll have to edit your orders a little either way if you want to try and optimize this. You'll need to account for Gargryph having -1 Pain after using Substitute. Sandstorm will outright fail (or be relying on a Luck Die, which you can't use a Will Point on) due to having no dice in its accuracy pool if you stick with your current orders. Edit: Fixed now!
RE: [Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins - Dragonstrike - 07-15-2018
Hey uh...guys, I just noticed a very important detail.
Nylon didn't say Valder left his red gemstone half behind.
Should we just assume Nathan got it when Valder left, @Iron?
RE: [Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins - Lord Windos - 07-15-2018
Omph….yeah, that IS an important detail. Did Valder leave it behind, or is that potential resource shot down the drain...?

If he didn't, Nathan can always call/text Valder about it, I guess.
It'd be a lot easier if it was left behind, though.
