Nathan could see Heart taking care of his Pokemon, including the semi-giant rock serpent. "Hmm? Ah, good morning Nats!" When he ask to Heart borrow Viktor he say. "Sure, I guess, but I have send him to the PC in the future. I just letting my Pokemon take a moment to stretch their legs. They were stuff in the PC for a while and they deserve a great break. Atlas and Viktor been fighting since yesterday and they needed a break."

"...urrrggghhh...I wish it was morning..."  There's the grumpy side.

"...*yaaaaawwwnnn*...don't worry...won't work him too hard.  Gallade's gonna be doin' most of the hard work anyways...just...need Viktor's help with it..."  And there's the tired side.

Here's the plan: time to finally, finally get started on teaching Gallade Drain Punch!  Going to have Viktor's help today, but I might be asking for a different pokemon's assistance the next time.

Oh, and I'm also going to increase Nathan's Knowledge to 5 for 32 EXP.  Maximum brain power, go!

Drain Punch Tutoring Roll for Encounter 1:
3 Insight + 5 Knowledge + 1 Move Tutoring + Move Demonstration = 9 D6 + 1 Success

"Then just wait a minute my friend." Heart then returned Koa very quickly to his pokeball. Then within minutes Heart make a quick access to his PC and send Koa to the future and take Viktor. "Here mate." Then Heart put Viktor pokeball in Nathan hands.

Spira doesn't manage to whip up enough for all three Magcargo. The leader eats it all up, then belches a rude belch of Smog.

Smog
(5)(3)(2)(5)(1)
(5) Spira takes 1 dmg
CD: (5)(6)(4)(4) Spira was poisoned!

Hida laughs at the belch. He's a little immature. He also rather likes this volcano.

The Magcargo is in a good mood now after that chemical belch.

Shiva tries to sneak up to the Primal Eevee.

4 Dex + 3 Survival + 1* Baashaun stealth

(5)(1)(6)(4)(6)(2) (5)(4) = 6 successes

Alertness: 4 Insight + 5 Survival + 4 Alert
(3)(3)(3)(4)(4)(3) (5)(6)(3)(6)(4)(3) (1) = 6 successes

Shiva gets right up close to the bulky, wolflike Eevee. Within a step of it, in fact. But then it reveals that it knew you were there all along, by doing a forward somersault and gazing at you from between its legs. It seems to be a very playful Pokemon despite its bulk, and it has amazing senses.

Any sudden motion right now and it looks like Eevee will spring away. For now, it seems to think you are a fellow top-of-the-food chain predator who doesn't pose much of a threat.

She does indeed pose no threat at all to that strange wolflike Eevee, she's for the biggest part incedibly curious about that unique creature. Much to her delight (and suprise) it does not seem to be shy or afraid in the slightest as it allows her to come much closer than she'd ever believe it'd do - her heart starts to race again, but this time from eager excitement than from adrenaline. Her calm and on purpose non-intimidating gaze is fixed on this Eevee - can Shiva make out whether it's a Normal Type from so close or does it suprisingly look like it's of a different Type?

How it showed itself so dear and playful was enough to make her heart melt like wax within seconds - definitely not shy or malicious despite its wild look, awwww!~♡ When it does a forward summersault to gaze from between its legs at whoever has came there, Shiva follows this movement (and gains a 2nd point in Atheltics Speciality for 6xp by that), her smile to Eevee is kind, playful and slightly 'What you can do, I can as well!'. "Well, hello you there!~ Never saw a unique creature like you. Though from how close you came to our camp, I assume the same's true for you as well? ...Will you tell me why you came so close though? Just curious, or do you hope to snatch some of our leftover food? Ooooorrrr...do you simply want to play?~"

[Iron]

Haha, that's really cute.

Eevee looks like a Normal type, but the eyes are frosty and dewy like a Glaceon's! They are the most beautiful part of this shaggy beast.

Eevee winks at you, and you can tell with your awesome Insight that he was just curious, and isn't looking for anything in particular. Probably has never seen humans before. Now he knows they are playful and funny.

"*cough* *cough*" (Spira uses only antidote on himself if that would work) "Hida did you catch that move?" (Basically asking if he learned how to use Smog) Spira then speaks to the leader of the Magcargo and Hida "How do you feel about some light sparring?"

Healing items work on humans, yes.

Hida gives a belch of his own - yep, looks like Smog! (It's a 0XP move, so he can learn it as soon as it makes any story sense for him to use it!)

Magcargo looks at Hida and nods. 

How many Magcargo do you want to spar with? You can either do a normal battle with dice rolls, or you can do a Training Session with up to three of your Pokemon. Every two or three Training Sessions, your Pokemon earn XP.

Shiva's heart already was alot like a puddle of liquid wax, but when that Eevee WINKED AT HER - this must have given her the rest. How can such a shaggy, matted, wild-looking creature like THIS be so adorable ? She had no idea, but she barely cares about that right now. What occupied her way more, was how she can make this strange Eevee hers - feels like a fine companion, a mischievous and playful friend for her faries and the icing on the cake of the Pokemon she befriended. She's doubtful whether modern science has ever seen a real and vivid Primal Eevee...!!

She remains in that upside-down position to return that wink as well. (･v<)☆ "Just curious, huh? So was I. Never seen such a creature like you! Maybe you're up for some more playing now that we've got to introduce each other? Whatever you're up to!~ We can play catch, hide-and-seek between all these rocks, or playfully brawl like siblings... Or just sit together for more shenanigans and acrobatics?"


-----------------------
Mechanics:
Playtime to break the ice further with Primal Eevee! It seems to be up for such things, much to my suprise.

If that goes well, we can introduce the question whether it'd like to stick to Shiva for more playings with her and her other Pokemon, free food and to get to see more things it has never seen before to satisfy its curiosity, Acquirering Roll is 6 Insight + 3 Empathy = 9d6 for me, +1 autosuccess at the cost of 1 Will Point. Got enough to spare, and this is a unique chance! Before Mika did that with Alola Marowak, I wasn't even aware one can spend Will on an attempt to convince a Pokemon to join.

Just the leader, so 1.

Consider there was no feeback from using a Potion on Mawile and Carrying them around, I'll assume those took place without incident, healing Mawile to 5/8 HP (If she had only 1), and that she either took him up on his second offer or not at all. It was just some fluff to bond with the lass, so it shouldn't matter all to much if it isn't played out.

After that, Terra gives them another kind smile, and motions towards her and the surrounding.

"Now that you have been feed and heal, anything else you want to do Mawile? Or want? Will try to.....do requests if I can, so any ideas?"

(If its okay with Dragonstrike or Spiritmon, I'd like to have Gallade/Gustav to use Heal Pulse on her once to try and bring them closer to full HP. If yes, I'll say that Terra eventually remembers that either Nathan/Heart have Pokemon with that healing Move, and checks in with them when they are free/not too busy with their Encounters and politely requests their assitence. If possible, he'll be holding Mawile while doing so, and she'll try to act as cute as possible to get the necessary treatment. After all, if those men's Pokemon can make the rest of her bruises go away, she'd probably want to put on an act to get their help!)

(To me it's okay. One Mega Launcher Heal Pulse will patch those wounds! That also could be a good opportunity to Terra meet Heart deltamon)
