Will you need me to put you on auto? sounded like you wanted to try out some specific things

Still encounters although riding in the RV? Cool. Reserve that Minun for me! Free berries - they might have no effect, but they still are useful to feed Pokemon. If those berries especially don't taste horrible, that is.
Could as well go for the special Nincada, but seeing it's a bug type... Cottonee's half Grass... And Shiva wouldn't want to catcht hat species...

Nothings is preventing you from acquiring that Shelder or Slowpoke, though. Having a Water type partner to does those pesky Fire types could be a huge boon!

Other than that, I want that Shroomish, but I'm afraid it'll get away if I go after the Valuble item...
Well, I was looking at it myself since Nathan is just a little low on funds, but I know you're rather low too, so eh. I'll just go grab the other item I was looking at and do a trainer battle afterwards.

Well, all berries have an effect of some kind, whether its as a hold item or as a pokeblock/poffin ingredient. And the only ones that might taste bad to a pokemon are the ones that restore HP but confuse pokemon that don't like the taste (based on natures and contest stuff in the games, of course).

Thanks, Dragonstrike. Like I said, if its something more useful to you or the others, I'll pass it along. Sharing is caring, after all~!

Yeah, you can make pokefoods with them, they just don't do anything numerically. They're still tasty.

If that's the case, great! Looks like the only this missing will be a Poffin mix then. And convincing Ventus to make some given the opportunity.
Iron, how do you calculate the dice pool of Initiative at the beginning of a battle again...?

1 D6 plus the flat values of whatever your character's dexterity and survival stats are ( As in roll a D6 and add 2 to the final result for a dexterity of 2 for example. Also, I think we've been forgetting the survival part so far. Oops.). If the dice tie, the pokemon with the higher base speed in the game's goes first. And if THAT ties, then it's a random turn order every turn I assume, just like with speed ties in the games.
It should also be mentioned that different moves use different stats for their accuracy checks. Growth uses Special (so dexterity in this case probably. Iron gets the last word on this, of course), Survival, and Nature. Make sure to check the core book for that information. I made a few entirely new tabs in my character sheet for referencing various things so I don't have to go back and forth between my browser and the book (including but not limited to moves, abilities, additional notes about the world, and a 'pokedex' keeping track of the pokemon we've seen and caught so far [encounters we didn't take are not included, so we haven't seen a caterpie or a rattata yet, for example.]).
Growth also raises Strength by 1 in this case. In sunny weather is when it raises it by 2 (going by the games).

@Iron
Nah. I can pop it frequently enough to roll dice. Nothing dramatic in the text though.
Also any chance of picking up spare Pokeballs for cash? From a writing perspective, adding an entirely spaced out Slowpoke to the team has so much potential for hilarity that as a player I want to do it on principle.
