If this action though calls for an Alert Check, I'd like to edit things and have her draw her Almanac when she's alone to see what it tells her about Chupacho.
I'd still want an Alert roll from Nathan because he's being very, very mindful about anything to do with future tech/knowledge. It'd probably take a lot more than 1 success for him to notice (maybe 3-4+?), but there's always a chance he will.
Alternatively, Gallade could just notice the curiosity immediately with his psychic empathy and quietly dissuade Shiva from pulling it out right that moment.
As for checking it while alone...that's not the easiest thing to do at the moment since we're in the middle of a big, open field with few trees. That'd be more doable later.
EDIT: Or Iron can just handwave it...I still would prefer that Alert roll for Nathan, though.
BTW, everyone in the group that's from 2017 can expect a crash course on the relevant history if we're in 1925 for long enough (which means relatively soon in-game if we aren't sent back to 2017 quickly).

Well if the almanac is what Phantom mentioned here, then unless Spira is looking over Shiva's shoulder, he'll think she's reading a normal book.

Fair enough. Means Shiva probably only has to worry about Nathan noticing right now, then. I'm not sure if Heart would stress out about it as much as Nathan would, given that Nathan's the big history guy who knows pokedexes haven't been invented yet.
RE: [Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins - Iron - 09-27-2018
I'm just gonna skip all that, because it's not really important when Shiva receives the information in the Almanac. She can afford to wait for the perfect moment.
RE: [Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins - PhantomUnderYourDesk - 09-27-2018
'When being alone' actually means 'later' or 'the perfect moment' for me.

That's one of the many books she's carrying around. ^^ Her Almanac is more like the Pokedex-bootleg/rip-off by the Almanac, it's short for 'Almanac Dex' that she bought due to personal reasons and completely secret from the others.

...you left out the part where Shiva borrowed Nathan's Porygon-Z to transfer all of the data to an old, normal looking pokedex behind Nathan's back.

Even I don't remember that, is that what happened? I remember Porgyon adding the Egg Checker.
RE: [Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins - PhantomUnderYourDesk - 09-27-2018
Huh...? Nope, I'm sorry I can't remember doing that, in fact I am certain that I left the Almanac as it was and burrowed Porygon-Z for something different or related. I'd have noted it for myself if I'd have done such an action to conceal the Almanac, but I haven't, maybe it only has been pondered but never put into action?
I please don't want to argue about such a detail. :C

I had Porygon-Z hack the Egg-Checker a little to be compatible with the Almanac, that's true - but I'm certain I did not transfer all the data from the Almanac to a normal Dex. In fact, I discussed with you whether it's okay to be seen with an Almanac in public, and you stated that it's perfectly acceptable as it's nothing illegal - so I am not seeing any reason for her having to conceal things like that.

That was my understanding too.
