[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

"O-oo-h m-my! I-I d-didn't exp-p-pect th-th-is! Ahahahahahahahaha!" In an unexpected, but no less amusing, turn of events, Ventus and Milktank were currently being assaulted by a flurry of Hoppip! He was chuckling at their probing, both because of the curious looks they had in their eyes, and the fact that they were tickling him senselessly. Just as he was about to gently wave them away, Shiva called to him, pleading for him not to, so he decided to stay his hand. Giving one lass carass to Miltank, he hopped down from the van, and found himself in front of the young lass.

"Ha ha, well, I recall seeing you watch them with interest while I was battling that Poliwag, so I'll leave you to them. Up you go!" With that being said, Ventus deftly picked Shiva up by the waist and gently hoisted her up to the roof of the van. While some might call his action a bit too intrusive, he clearly felt that she wanted to meet those drifting Pokémon, so why not lend a hand in that effort? Panning his vision around his surroundings, he saw Nathan was well on his way from the group, hunting for something rather sparkling in the distance. Judging from the lingering sullenness and the stinging pride he detected, it appears that he was still in quite a foul mood from his recent loss.

'While I would like the chance to reconnect with him and soothe his stress, I know that would only make things worse for the both of us. Not only does he distrust me greatly, but from what I can gather, he's the type that wants to solve all his problem himself. Not a healthy attitude to carry, but best leave him to his own devices for now. Like Shiva said, its best to give him some time,' he though, before looking for something to occupy his interests for a bit. Just his luck, he spotted something else glimming in the distance; perhaps another treasure left in the wild. He also spotted what look to be a Shelder by a shallow pond. He couldn't tell from where he was at, but something seemed...off about it.

Plan already formed in his mind, he set out to retrieve the lost item in the wild, and to investigate the strange Shellder!


Mechanics:

Going after the other valuable item, and seeing what is up with that other *Shellder. While I'm not interest in catching for myself, it might be something that could be traded for a profit. Or could be good battle practice. I'm fine with either!
