Pyroar still seems super hesitant, even after a little gentle persuasion. His guilt if he were to hurt someone important would cripple him. He doesn't feel ready yet.

And that's perfectly okay, because Nathan has a Plan B.

"...alright then.  If I can't help you directly...then I'll try my best to do so indirectly until I can visit again.  Is it okay if I talk to Director North about your situation?"

Terra Time!

Being extraordinarily dense when it comes to all matters of sociality and being distracted by his own curiosity, Terra was completely oblivious to the subtle signs of being Shiva flustered as he keenly studied her and spoke, all while maintaining the pace she set with ease. He DID pick up her smile, however, which he naturally returned with a gentle one of his own, but when she hesitantly but firmly requested just being called her given name he soon adopted a confused expression.

"*Eyebrows scrunch together* ….I call you Wise Woman because you ARE one. Not because you are.....adorable. *Pauses, looking thoughtful* You ARE that and very pretty, but that is not why."

He says the last part matter of factly, as if it was both patently obvious and unrefutably true, before continuing without hardly missing a beat.

*Points at her forehead*  Know many things, and how to use Knowledge most.....effectively in what you do. Get along well with people and Pokémon, and can get them to listen with open hearts. Teach others what you Know, and how to.....use it well themselves, even if they don't understand much about stuff before.  *Look stoically serious at her, before solemnly nodding* Only most wise and mastered of people can do can all that. You can....and maybe much more. Now....and in the future. *Nods* So that is why I call you Wise Woman. It is what you are."

At this point he pauses to think over the rest of what you said, before shrugging.

"If you want to only be called Shiva, though, I will do that. Okay? (…) *Curiously and innocently stares at her* Everyone in group has lots of Rare Pokémon, so everyone is also a Collector of them. Right? Should be....I think. *Shakes Head, before continuing* Nothing wrong with catching Pokémon that way. Very good to do that, as...….matter of fact? Is that the right thing to say? *Presumably he gets confirmation, so he moves on*. Catching Pokémon without Fighting them make them good friends and partners much quicker. Less likely to not listen or fight with you too, so they are easier to work with. *Smiles* ...That is another reason you are special. Not many.....capable of making most Pokémon partners......so peacefully or.....easily, but you do."

At this juncture in the conversation, the rugged wanderer starts to frown, looking and feeling almost....chagrined at what he's about to say.

"…I....never been good at.....convincing Pokémon to join me. Unless they want to, though. Not.....charismatic and smart enough for that. *Shrugs* So I Faint and catch most Pokemon. Easier for me, and sell most Pokémon I get, so it is not problem most of the time. Duskull and Anubi are......exceptions *Expression become DETERMINED*... but will work hard to earn their full respect, and become true partners and friends with them. That, I promise. To myself....and to them."

Cottenee's own cheerful affirmation of their Loyalties to their master thankfully managed to break up how serious the ongoing conversation had gotten by that point for the monk, causing him to blink at first, before he chuckle and offered the fluffball both a small smile and another marshmallow. Ah.....he'll never grow tired of their cheery, peppy, and somewhat quirky nature.....

(…)

Initially, Terra didn't pay any mind to Shiva's almost amazed acceptance of the lapis lazuli, but when she proposed to trade for them....well, that caused him to stop in his tracks as he began to seriously and critically mull over, with a hand on his chin and eyes closed as physical signs of how deeply in thought he was.

Uh oh.

About a half a minute later of doing this, and the mountain of man had come to a decision, signal by a solitary nod of his head, before he turned to face the fae lady and stared at her - arms crossed - with the utmost mercantile intensity

"Will trade gems for Favors, or split profits of any sold Crafted jewels with you in a ~65%/~35% share. Favors can cover Tutoring my Pokémon Moves, Training them if I can't, small or moderate errands, or other stuff. In case of sales, I will get 65% share, since I am providing materials for Crafting, and will be responsible for finding buyers for our product. *Looks thoughtful* ...We can also create a no interest running balance or mutual fund between instead, if you want. In first case, all profits of sold jewelry will go to you at first, but I can ask for Poke from you later after three days of last sale, up to 75% of total profits made on sales. In second case, all profits go into a shared fund account between us, but we can draw no more than 50% of total profits made on account, while rest is saved or invested until a later specified date or in case of emergency. Savings will be split later in an agreed manner. Contracts for running balance and mutual fund will be informal, unless their is later need for legally binding documentation, and all arrangements can be re-negotiated at a later date. *Pauses for a moment to let it all sink in* Do you agree with the terms and conditions presented? If so, which ones? If not.....*Shrugs*….we can negotiate different terms for each arrangement, create new ones at a later date, or refuse to do business which each other. *Nods* That....is all."

…Wowzer. That was....quite a thoroughly brusque and Intimidating businesslike of the normally simple monk. Goes to show that despite his denseness and lacking in mental acuity in most area, he was no slouch in learning his parent's trade! Woe be those who think they can pull the wool over his eyes when it comes to matters of commerce and luxury, for this man will prey on them like a loan Sharpedo!

Genie Time!

Genie savored the flash of surprise that flickered over Shiva as she oh so slightly forcibly greeted them in their own delicate way, but deflated somewhat as they remined her to behave, least she upset or rile her partner (for she is no one's servant but her own, and maybe not even THAT) too much. *Drrrzt….* Oh poo....and just when things were starting to get interesting....

However, that dip in attitude almost instantly reversed itself and skyrocket into the lower stratosphere when her fellow wickedly whimsical woman privately divulged their TRUE plans, causing them to be blinkered for a second before their toothy grin was back in full force and overly rakish form. She was the promptly forced to cover it with a claw to muffle her very nearly heinous chackling, least she tip off their mutual partner of the full ramifications of their fun. She had underestimated this one's capacity for being truly fae, but this a rare instance where she's TOTATLLY alright with expectations being defied! Look out world, here. They. Come.

The Dragonfly Princess raised an eye ridge in mild surprise as the mystical lass in her clutches decipher her hidden and (as of yet) undecided intent, before favoring them with a coy devil may care smile as their answer. Oh, so this darling little one can read them like her partner, now can she? Hmm....well, it was going to be challenging concealing her most juiciest of thoughts towards them, but somehow that doesn't other her nearly as  much as she thought. In fact....it sounded like fun for her. Te he he he....let's see who can outwit who in the future, dear....

When the Fairy woman did her best to consul her partner, the mischievous dragoness was all to willing to play along, closely her and angelically nodding to him, all while a subtle twitches of the claw holding Shiva's hand belayed her real feelings. However, being fully experienced with dealing with Genie and her whimsical extremes as he was, Terra wasn't fooled for a minute by the fae duo's compromise with him. He demonstrated this by gave them both a deadpan staaaaare for a full couple (just long enough to start making them sweat!).....before letting out a(nother) beleaguered *Siiiigh* and nodding his head. Oh, what's the use? The two wickedly whimsical women would be up to diabolical/fanciful scheming on their Berry Hunt no matter what he did, so the best he could do at the moment was resign himself to running damage control while the two were together. At the very least, he'll have the chance to prevent the worst their creative ideas, if he's able keeps on top of things.

Key word: If.

*Sighs* If only, if only.....
Like the wind, I come and go as I please... but I am always there to provide a comforting breeze.

Oh... Shiva was naturally a bit caught off guard when Terra's expression turned from a gentle smile to a confused expression when she only offered to be called her given name instead of the term of endearment(?) - no, 'nickname' might be a better way to describe it... - he has obviously chosen for her, but thanks to being quick on picking up this change in emotions from his side she didn't reacted much on the outside apart from a curiously tilting her head towards him when he voiced his reasons.

Him calling that moody fae enthusiast 'adorable' and on top of that 'very pretty' in such a dry and matter-of-fact-tone caused her to perk up and staaaare at him wide eyes for a moment of pure mystification, as compliments in such a direction were among the very LAST things she would have expected from him. That didn't mean that she didn't appreciate it in a way - in fact, something told her that he really meant it, but more like in a friendshippy and kind way than in one that would make it necessary for her to tell that she's loyal to Ventus. Besides, he knows that she's taken by his boss, and doesn't seem like...'that' kind of man in Shiva's guess, so nothing felt wrong when she responded to his words with a dear and meek smile to herself. Aww!

"Alright...", she eventually melodically chimed while cupping her forehead, "If you...wish to call me a wise woman, do so. Nothing...wrong if you mean it in the way you shared, haha! I thought you mean it more in the archetype-direction, that 'old and wise woman' from folklore and fairy tales. I'm by far not THAT smart or decent in witchcraft... I just, eh, like it and dabble a bit in it, is all!~" She lights up upon sharing this, well-aware that she can do so towards Terra, as accepting as he seemed to be...


The confession that he neither nor ever was good at convincing Pokemon to join one on their own will earned him a reassuring and compassionare pat on his muscular shoulder. She was just about to say something while Cottonee joyfully nomed down on the offered marshmallow (she HAS to ask Terra at some point where he gets them from if her fluffball likes them so!) , but the words were halted as he stopped mid-way and gave the impression of thinking so hard that Shiva grew a little worried whether she said anything wrong or triggered him in a bad way. She patiently waited, mustered him from the side, even flinched a bit (for good reason!) as he stepped in front of her with these crossed arms and serious gaze...

........all subtle fear was blown away though when he only went over all the mercantile conditions of the gemstones L.Lazuli summones with his HiddenPower in UTMOST detail and suprising elan; once he finished Shiva failed to not blink at him nor to hold back a delighted chuckle. "Now that was...kinda amazing! Your parents thaught you rather well about the life of a merchant, indeed..." *attempts to give herself just as serious, mercantile and mildly intimidating, but more for the show* "I'd mostly prefer the option favors in return, at least for this first batch of gemstones... Errands or sessions to tutor a move to your Pokemon sound most acceptable for me, as well as a promise to try befriending a wild Pokemon for you in case we meet one along the travels that you wish for your team. That'd require you being at least present then, as otherwise the Pokemon might feel being traded, which they naturally don't enjoy that much. Training is an option, but more as an alternative choice if we - or you - can't find a buyer for the crafts I provide. I...don't feel the need for a legally binding contract right away, maybe at a later point that may be more suitable. That... is all from my side. Sounds alright?"

She kept her arms loosely crossed while waiting for the mountainous man to respond before continuing, a no-nonsense-smile on her expression that neatly concealed any playfulness sparkling deep within them.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Genie's instant mood swing from 'feeling alienated by being asked to behave' by Shiva to what seemed to be an 'even INTENSIFIED fae mood' caused the resident Fairy Trainer (can she called like that?) to mirror that muffled devious laughter in a watered-down version. Oh my, this particular Flygon that Terra has brought along here must be even MORE mischievous than she believed it would have been, more playfully-fiendish than the most sneaky hoard of Whimsicott when being left unobserved while riding the whirlwinds with the destination being a quiet and innocent town...

Now if THAT doesn't promise fun and a highly unusual friendship between the young female and the green desert dragon, heaven knows what does! My, before journeying not in her wildest daydreams Shiva has dared to think about anythingelse but gracefully defeating a Dragon Type with her beloved fairies, least of all enjoying the meeting of one to such a degree... Oh, and not to forget about Chi, that smol draconic fairy she promised to hunt loot with to fulfill both their desire for treasures!

A tiny wink (・ω<)☆ in response to Genie's mild suprise over Shiva instantly being able to 'read' her displayed that she's all up to see how WELL she'd be able to decipher the desert princess' intentions in the future... Challenge accepted?~

Terra's long, completely unimpressed and deadpan staaaare at the newly formed whimsical duo earned him a pouting expression from Shiva at first (completely with slightly inflated cheeks and all), before she couldn't help but to break in a compassionate and, in a weird way, calming chuckle. 'Now now', it seemed to say 'please don't worry too much! You're there, so all will go well and I know you've thaught Genie discipline already, as you said!~ We wil try to not over do it...' With that dealt with, Shiva does turn towards the desert dragon next with a swift movement, indicating that they've introduced each other well enough then and cleared the matters - what holds them now?~ As if Cottonee was eager to emphasize that sentiment of her sweet Master, she flapped her winds one more time and - only if Genie gives the impression of being fine with it! - places herself right on top of her head, between the violet eyes and where the antennae met her forehead. Raphael kept himself a little behind Shiva, but encouraged by her the archangel seemed all well to play along and enjoy some careless free time. After all, with his father he restrained from outplaying his fairy nature, but now he could try out how that feels? Yes yes, that'd be it!

"Now then, Genie", Shiva told her while STILL holding a clawed hand of hers, "What shall we do now? *comes a little closer and lowers her voice a little so that Terra doesn't hear the following suggestions* Do you wish to help searching for Berries your way? Showing me how you 'sing' with your wings and summon a sandstorm to hide in? Finding some wild Pokemon to give them a suprise scare? What do you usually do to have your kind of fun? Or... *lighting up at THAT thought*... I know! We could play 'Hide and Seek' in this area, with the looser having to fulfill some task in the style of 'Truth and Dare!' How about that?" (Doesn't have to be outplayed in all detail as that'd take waaay to long though. If you're having other suggestions for things to do on that playdate, do share them!~ :> )

Gym Leader Tanuki vs Heart Round 1

"As soon as you reach a good spot, fire off Psybeams!"

Psybeam 1
(3)(6)(1)(4)(1)(5)(2)
3 Str +2 power -4 vit = 1d6+1
(3) Caesar takes 1 dmg 7/8hp
CD: (1)

Caesar shakes his head to clear the mental attacks, and in the process scatters Poison Spikes all over the battlefield - especially around those tube exits.

Poison Spikes 1
(3)(5)(2)(5)(1)(3) (4)

Psybeam 2
(2)(1)(6)(2)(6)(2)
(5) Caesar takes 2 dmg 5/8hp -1 pain

Rock Smash 2
(6)(4) Caesar lands a lucky hit despite the tricksy staggering opponent
(5)(6)(1)(4)(2) Spinda takes 4 dmg 3/7hp -2 pain.
CD: (3)(5)(5)(6)(1) -1 def

Spinda is rocked back and slams against the tubes. If that had been a wall instead, Spinda might have fainted.
The small crowd seems to be muttering among themselves, trying to figure out what move that was. A single Double Kick? That's possible but why would a trainer do it?

Psybeam 3
(3)(6)(3)
(2) Caesar takes 1 dmg 4/8hp -2 pain
CD: (6) Caesar became confused!

Double Kick 3 & 4
Not enough dice thanks to Tangled Feet

(3)(3) Caesar hurt himself for 0 dmg in his confusion! 4/8hp -2 pain


Psybeam 4
(3)(1) Miss!

"Spinda...." But Spinda is already spinning and spinning and it's too late to slow down. Pew pew pew, one more Psybeam goes flying at Caesar before Spinda can slow down.

Psybeam 5
(3)
Insight: (3)(1)
:0
Spinda kind of wraps the Psybeam around herself.
(2)(4) Spinda takes 1 dmg 2/7 -2 pain.


"Hahahaha! I love the chaos of this battle!"

Just let me know if you want any rolls, or you can even do them yourself since it won't have a mechanical effect.

Genie is a mystical Pokemon, but Terra's specimen is more mischievous and playful than some of those desert spirits are.

Heart chuckle a bit. "Indeed its good some chaos in battlefield. Even now, we have some difficult battle against you. No wonder you are a tough trainer. Even with move advantage, well raised Normal-types is always difficult to beat." Heart make a signal to call Caesar back. Heart kneel and pat the head of the poison bunny. "I not gonna make the same mistake I did before. Its just like the last time. You can finish off Caesar with Sucker Punch just like last time. I might need you later Caesar, so rest well. I gonna finish off that battle for you my friend. Be on your guard." Heart return Nidorino back to the pokeball. And in his place, came the monkey godness, Rose the Infernape! "Are you ready Rose? Thats gonna be tough, but we can do it girl!" Rose release some flames to show her resolute. (Waiting initials @Iron).
