"Maybe. But with Terra Metal Power, I may able to evolve Onix without have to trade away the Metal Coat. I could save for me in the future. Held Items is very much rare to find, but that Coat I could save for Onix use in the future. Or maybe sell for some profit but I supose Quetzal would not like. Thats the name I gave to Onix."

"Possibly, though maybe there's a way to use this ore to evolve Quetzel without doing a round trade?  Either way, Charizard can certainly help melt this thing down for whatever reason you use it for.  We might at least need a rough cast of some kind to shape it, though..."

@Iron, any suggestions on what possible courses of action there are here?

You could have Onix roll around in a clay pit to make a cast, then use Terra + Charizard to trigger the evolution. I'd be OK with that.

Considering this is happening at the end of Day 77 and Heart has D-Onix on his team during the gym battle on Day 78, this is kinda important to figure out now!

Is Heart ready to evolve Quetzal into a Delta Steelix, @Spiritmon?  Should be simple to contact Terra and have Gallade fetch him if Terra's help is needed after all.

Let's say it needs to be done on Day 78 so there's enough daylight.

I think we do that after Heart battle in the Gym.

Gym Leader Howl vs Heart Round 2

+2 Str for Honedge

Nasty Plot 1

Rock Smash 2 on the ceiling, which is made of many rocks cobbled together.
(6)(3)(6)(5)(1)(1) (1)
The targeted Stone comes lose, and Honedge intercepts it from the air. He begins glowing with light, which doubles into two spheres. In the crucible of evolution, the two spheres of light lengthen and form two bonded swords - Congratulations! Your Honedge evolved into Doublade!

Howl smiles at another evolution in his gym. "Most people just go near the stone to trigger evolution, but if it works it works. Shall we keep going, or are you off to  your very important appointment?"

Dark Pulse 2
(5)(2)(2)(3)(1)(2)
6* Str + 3 power +1 stab +1 glasses -7* vit = 4d6+1
(4)(1)(2)(2) Doublade takes 2 dmg 6/9hp -1 pain
Flinch: (1)(6) Doublade flinches 3

Dark Pulse 3
(1)(3)(5)(4)(6)
(3)(1)(4)(1) Doublade takes 1 dmg 5/9hp -1 pain
CD: (5)(6) Doublade flinches 4

Dark Pulse 4
(6)(6)(2)(1)
(4)(4)(3)(1) Doublade takes 3 dmg 2/9hp -2 pain
CD: (5)(1) If it weren't for the evolution, Doublade would be at maximum pain right now!

Leftovers heals 1hp, leaving him at 3/9hp.

Heart shout in happiness! "Yes! Success! You look awesome Doublade!"

"Yes. We want to continue. I already run from a Pokemon Gym Leader once. I going to continue!"

"Doublade! Rock Smash again! Four times! Put in action your new powers!"

Rock Smash base dices: 6D6/5D6/4D6/3D6
Damage dice: 10D6
Effect: D5 to reduce foe defenses.

"There was nothing left, not even the cooking pot; got vaporized." He shrugs, "Fortunately, it didn't explode immediately, so I was able to get a good distance away from it."

Oh. That causes Shiva to visibly calm down, she also can't help but to chuckle at the thought of a cooking pot vaporizing. She also enjoys, maybemaybe is a tad bit impressed by that too, that he talks about such a failure with relative ease. 'I, uh, still better not ask what he mixed together there...', she silently thinks to herself.

Yena comes running back in that moment with the duskball-toy i between his mighty fangs, drops it in front of Shiva and barks and spreads his wings to ask her to throw it again, which she happily does. He's her anti-ghost dog, but won't do a thing to acquainted Ghost Types unless they themselves give reason to defend her; but Shiva's got the feeling that Spira's ghosts won't pose a threat at all unless being being provoked. As the butterwolfly goes chasing the ball across the yellow flowers of Elanor, Shiva gazes up to the Comet with very mixed feelings dwelling within her. "...Hey, Spira..... If we make it out of all that safely and in one piece... *cough* ...Say, could you then, maybe... I mean, could we then cook one of your recipes together? At best one that's matching the nutritional needs of Grass Types, or a snack-like thing that can be shared between the Pokemon and the caretaker..."

"...I'd be happy about that."

Spira wasn't expecting her to say that, and his expression is similar to this:

Spoiler

Spira realizes he's blushing and covers his face, "*Cough* Yeah, sure thing."

Awww. Shiva does not blush, but she instead smiles and chuckles and very lightly and playfully punches his right shoulder. "D...Don't blush like that, duuuh! ( >з<) It's a valid skill for anyone aiming to specialize in Pokemon Breeding, and a nice way to get to know a person better. All I can cook for 'em so far are Poffins."

Now he's beet-red; *nervous chuckling* "Oh. Yeah, of course, no problem." He apparently misunderstood what she was asking. o.o;

(Haha, that situation's so cool. And super-weird. And a tad bit cute. I'll give Shiva a 4th point in Allure Speciality for that [-18XP].)

Well, if he doesn't stop, she has to lightly punch his shoulder again. "Are you thinking weird stuff?? (҂ `з´ )" Another punch, "DOOOON'T! I wish to cook stuff with ya and then serve it our Pokemon to see how they enjoy it, you're good at that, there's nothin' wrong or reprehensible 'bout it, and that is aaaaalllll ! Okay? If ya don't want to, we don't have to, fine."

She then finally lets go of him and puts the tips of her two pointer fingers together and mumbles a quiet "But I'd still be happy 'bout it."

I think we do that after Heart battle in the Gym.

In which case, we're done with Day 77!  

"Let's make sure to bring it up when we all gather for the trip to the Ruins.  Be ready to discuss our team compositions as well, just like we did for the trip to Mt. Sentry."  (though given we've discussed all that in the Meta Thread already, I don't think we need to do an IC discussion about it.)

"You already did a great job Doublade. Return." Heart return Doublade and out comes Quetzel! He fly around the battlefield showing his aerial skills. "Howl, let me present to you: My Delta Onix, Quetzel! A dear friend of mine give me this Pokemon a time ago before we get separate paths, and because of that this Pokemon meant a lot to me! This will be a air battle! Prepare yourself!"

Quetzel make a intimidating roar towards Mandibuzz, more than ready to show who is the superior flying Pokemon!

[Iron]

Great idea!

Onix: (4) Going first!

[Spiritmon]

"Let's make sure our speed superioty shall we Quetzel? Use Rock Slide 3x! And when Mandibuzz faint, set Tailwind to make sure our superioty speed!

Rock Slide base Dice: 7D6/6D6/5D6
Damage: 9D6+1
Effect: D3 To flinch. Extra damage thanks to Doublade Rock Smash.

Tailwind Base Dice: 6D6
Effect: +2 Dexterity to user and allies.

Notes: Any physical attack Quetzel will reduce his defense in 1 but increase Dex in +1. And thanks to Everlink Armor, he has 6 Vitality. Let's see that bird go though his unmatched defenses!

"I'd be happy to cook alongside you." Spira's face goes back to normal (that is, he stops blushing), He fakes an "Ow" and rubs his shoulder after the punch, and gives a warm smile; "So you can look forward to it."

Awwwww. These words now cause her to blush (faintly), but she quickly shakes that off and returns that smile. Oh, and she ends up hugging his arm out of a whim (Like this). "I do, I do look forward, thank youuu!" But Shiva quickly lets go because it's, eh... awkward, and she doesn't want to accidently violate his personal comfort zone.

Change of subject! ".......*cough* So, did you already challenge Angela since we were with her in the audience of the Safari Cup? I...I did - She's really good and tough."
