[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Once that conversation was concluded (for the time being), the empath re-focus his gaze back onto Nathan and, once he reviewed over their choice and studied the details/emotions of it, he extended a hand out for them to seal the deal with a handshake. "They we have an accord, my friend! I don't know if this Slowking will have the ability to verbally communicate with us, but I imagine either we or they will find some method in exchanging information. The fact that this variant of Slowking can spontaneously learn lore from being bitten by a Shellder is extremely interesting in of itself, and I hardly wait to record such a thing for my own observations/research! Though, what is this I hear about taking them elsewhere to evolve? I thought that just trading them with a King's Rock would suffice, or is this species' evolutionary requirements are different here than in the rest of the globe?"  

Nathan finally notices Heart once Ventus turns to talk to him for a moment.

No comment from Nathan.  Just a feeling that kinda says 'You again?'  Nathan's not really a fan of Heart arriving unannounced in his business over and over again...even if he can't remember one of those three times so far and has only been told Heart was present...

He does comment on Ventus's lecture, though.  

"*AHEM!*  I'm right here, you know.  And no, Skorupi is NOT up for trade right now.  And nor do I approve of your 'hunts' in the slightest, and I don't recommend you encourage those habits.  At all.  End of story."

Back to business and education, though...oh, and the handshake. Can't forget that.

"Shellder, Ventus.  Shellder.  Can't evolve Slowpoke without them, and the only place to get them for Slowpoke is the water.  Trainer owned Shellder or ones provided by the Center are...finicky, and don't tend to provide the extra knowledge for some weird reason.  Luckily, they're found in most large bodies of water in the region, so finding them isn't an issue.

"Oh, and Slowbro can learn the lore too.  Good luck getting any of it out of them, though.  I think there' a good chance Slowking will have some way to communicate with us after I evolve him, though...just a hunch.  Partially depends on where you evolve Slowpoke, really."
