Arena Trap
Bite, Sand Attack, Sand Tomb, Mud Slap, Bide, Crunch, Sandstorm


So... I guess before I finish the round, I need to know how you're going to get rid of Ingrained Cacturne B. Now that Arena Trapinch and the grappler are caught, you could flee that Ingrained Cacturne after extinguishing it. Or you could catch it. Or maybe you have something more creative in mind.

(stats for the caught Cacturne and xp?)
Spira uses some of the surrounding sand to try and smother the burning Cacturne then time to leave and treat that 2 Lethal damage. If Potions help w/ lethal damage he'll chug one then do some self-treatment (gonna raise Medicine to 2 for 12/14 of my current exp) to try and deal w/ any left-over lethal damage
-Edit- whoops that's 6 exp to increase it, my b

[Iron]

Alright. You put the Cacturne out with an Action and some sand, then beat feet while he's Ingrained.

A Potion heals 1 lethal dmg. A Super Potion heals 2 lethal dmg.

Medicine is harder to perform on yourself.
(1)(5)(5)(5)(1)(2) (5)

With your medicine check, you find some herbs and some broad leaves. With that and some cloth, you stabilize the wounds so it won't bleed out any further, but you should take it easy until you get those Potions in you.


You get 18XP to divide between Toya and Hida, and you get half of that as always.

Cacturne
1/1/3
Sand Veil
Revenge, Poison Sting, Absorb, Growth, Leech Seed, Sand Attack, Pin Missile, Ingrain, Faint Attack, Spikes, Sucker Punch, Payback, Sandstorm

You stay warm with the heated rocks of Magcargo. But in Area 6...well, that's a dangerous place to sleep! 4, 5, or 6 avoids an intrusive encounter.

(5)

You actually aren't disturbed overnight, so let me know your plans for the next day! You have two Encounters before the Safari Cup.

Nathan's overnight:

(6)

He's also undisturbed.


Heart's overnight:
(1)

You wake up to a great big Venomoth chewing on your tent and flitting around the pyre.

It is now Day 72. The morning is still a little chilly.

Spira doesn't wanna push himself too hard after that battle, so he'll move to Area 3 then Area 2 expending 1 encounter in each area.

"Shoo! Shoo! Stay out of my tent and that pyre! Its have a Legendary inside there bug!" Heart say with a flame in his hand, trying to dispatch the Venomoth out of the tent! Rose and Heracross was beside each side of Heart, ready to defend the Egg. "I will only say one time Venomoth. Backoff, or we will smite you."

Intimidation atempt of Heart with flame in his hand. Since its not normal a bug see a human with fire power it might add maybe a little help on the dice (since bug is weak to fire). In case its not happen, Rose will dispatch him with a restrained Embers (dont want to cause fire in the forest) and Heracross will use Nightslash. Heart also summon Gustav to use water moves in cases Rose flames go out of control and begin a fire in the forest. Better be ready than sorry.

Safari Zone - Spira 4

Aggro: (2)

You find an aggressive Noctowl, who annoys you by blowing you backward so that no matter how much you change direction, you're always facing into the wind.

Rarity: (2)(2)(2)(3) A Pikachu laughs at you as you combat the Noctowl's wind. The Electric type is not at all afraid of Noctowl, of course.

[Iron]

Having fire in your hands will allow you to use Intimidate, though there's a chance Venomoth will just be drawn to that light.

Intimidate: (2)(2)(6)(6)(6)(5) (3)(3)
(2)(2)(2)(3)(2)(1) (3)(2)(1)(6) Wow. Ok, Venomoth flaps off after the first Ember from Rose. Take 1XP for Rose and Heracross and Heart.

What Area are you heading to? You're already in 6.

Nice.  Well then, yesterday he caught 7 Pokemon and it only took 8 Safari Balls to do it, so I'd say that Nathan's doing pretty well so far!  And feeling a lot more confident since everything seems to be going so well on both the survival and pokemon catching fronts.

As the morning's still somewhat chilly, Nathan's keeping close to Swiftfire.  Having her close is just so warm, comfortable...he feels safe with her around, to say the least.  Same goes for Calam, Gallade, and Grid, obviously.  They obviously don't radiate the same heat that Swiftfire does, though.

That aside, though, it's time for some more pokemon catching in Area 6 for him!  Gotta be ready for the tournament today!

Now, given that Nathan has that Dratini egg and he'll have to be aiding some conservation efforts in the future somehow, I'd say that he'd be poking around some of the bodies of water on the off chance that he can find a more experienced Dratini friend who can help out with that.  There was also that one NPC all the way back in Ginger Town at the start of the campaign who mentioned that Dratini are more likely to appear at Vapor Falls if the trainer in question has noble ancestry...maybe the same will apply here?

The sleep Shiva eventually found was pleasant and well-deserved, though upon getting up it became obvious it wasn't as restful as if she'd have have slept over in a dorm of the hostel or Pokemon Center - it felt more like having spent the night within the tent the group uses during traveling. It's been warm, comfy and by the side of some of her Pokemon though and therefor all she'd ask for; once more she was up and about as the sun started to rise on this Monday. Its sight while feeding her Pokemon breakfast and enjoying a basic brought-along one herself reminded her on her oddball of a boyfriend, guessing he probably just got up as well wherever he's currently residing. Reshiram may keep him safe and well.

She does not change her party at the provided PC because every current member is there for a reason.

Due to the chill she's wearing warm clothes beneath her Ranger's cloak and keeps Primal Glaceon and Delphox by her side as she makes her way to her assigned area (No.5), first thing she'll do there is checking on any campers who are already up - if they appear to be freezing, she'll help out with her fierly magical fox. Once it'll be time for her to enjoy a break herself, she'll continue to search for neat crafting material (Art Category) by trees, including that sought Spring Sawsbuck Antlers. Maybe overnight an exemplar passed by and shed 'em. That, and she'll also revisit the place she has found that angelic feather to see whether anything has changed there in the meantime and whether she now can find/spot something that may hint to its origin.
