[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Ohhh, Pokemon Alabaster - I never played it before, but like its graphic style. Is it worth a play, would you recommend it?


Furthermore, got a thought that came to me today that I want to ask about: If Shiva were to protect a random Pokemon with the Ancient Shield, could Primal Espeon possibly 'copy' that protection via his Psych Up Move to protect himself as well, does the Shield's protection count as a 'Attribute and Trait Modifier' that this move copies from the target? Obviously that's illegal in battle, but it could be useful outside of battle at specific cases and scenarios. Iron, would you make that work or wouldn't you?

It's pretty fun. Twitch listed it as a big influence on her. Only 5 gyms rn though.

Espeon isn't strong enough to copy the full force of the Ancient Shield, but I'd let you improvise an Iron Defense in that way.

You can always decide that your victory came with a drawback, even a major one!

I see. That makes more sense, and I think I've already got an idea for a drawback!~ Forgive me if it'll take a few days to get that battle-post up, I'm just so hyped to create art at the moment... (>///<)

FYI: Terra used some of his leftover Energy to de-age Keni post Loyalty Get for his Deoxys Clone, so he's going to be a bit younger than he was last seen. Not sure by how much, but that's for Nathan to find out now!

[Lord Windos]

Alright, since Nathan is taking full responsibility of the Primal Genesect, I'll let you fully handle that scene Dragonstrike while Terra and Ventus hang out in the background gapping/studying the creature and Nathan's interactions with it (or possibly them, if the Mythic is interested in them). No need for me to add anything if it's just going to be them being in awe of it, ya know?

Also, Oinari, Arete, and Sari will be will Terra in their Pokeballs. The first so it can store Primal Genesect's appearance for later Illusion shenanigans, the second for possible interactions between two Genesect later (provided both are aminable to such a meeting) , and the last because he feels it be somewhat fitting for someone sharing the infamous king's name be present to witness the full splendor of a properly Revived Gensect. Ven's Pokemon shouldn't be relevant for this event, so they'll go undefined.

Lasty, I'll get to rushing through any linger business with Terra when I can, so that everything is set for the group to embark on the next epic quest from Mespirt ! Haven't gotten to it sooner simply because it CAN be done quickly and I wouldn't have much to do after said business is done, so I've put it off until the last second and focused on other things.

Initially, Nathan has a few words for Ventus and Terra first before the three of them go in.  After that?  Well, we'll just have to see how everything plays out, as this Genesect definitely seems to be quite the powerful figure...

Hopefully my info gathering bears some useful fruit so that we can better arm ourselves for that event.  It seems promising so far, but we'll also have to see where further questioning will lead Nathan...

[Dragonstrike]

So it seems our foe of the week when we assist Mesprit will likely once again be the Scimitars, to absolutely nobody's surprise.

That's going to make preparing for the coming challenges difficult, but at least it gives us a better idea of what to expect. Though given the exact nature of the situation, this is probably going to take us quite deep into the organization's rankings this time...

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Thought so. But until the time's ripe for that challenge, I'll further explore the region + its various places and enjoy interactions + fun battles with my Pokemon, that's a bit more fun to me instead of actively progressing the plot (^v^; )

"Nimue. I know that name. She is my opposite in more ways than one: she hoards rare Pokemon; she is aligned with water; she is power hungry for its own sake. We have met multiple times in our long, ancient histories."

Water, huh?  Hmmmmm...anyone else thinking that isn't a coincidence?

Oh no. Don't tell me she is the leader of the Water Scimitars.
