"Nah, I understand. Been a Pokemon rare collector have similar job." Then Heart sit and begin to tell Ventus the information he find.

"First of all, that Claydoll probably came from deep inside the skull ruins. According to the person who was working in the job yesterday, a group of researchs was testing some type of drill machine, and all these problems begin when the Almanac persons come to the city. And we see the close to the ruins correct? Also he told me the vines don't come to this because of some barrier or something and told me that story:"

There was a city the King didn't like, one sort of like a modern day suburb, only it was a suburb of the King's Castle, where Sarimanok sat on a throne of Charizard skulls, which is now the Skull Ruins. King Sarimanok broke that suburb into little bits and paved Route 04 with the rubble. The northern border of Stair City is also part of that rubble.

"My theory is that Claydoll is probably the guardian of the Skull ruins, and the Almanac was using the drill to excavate something inside the ruins and they wake that Claydoll who was controlling the Tangrowth and the vines. And stolen Kirlia pearl because he thinks it was his stolen treasure or something? And they have a lab in the basement of the department store, and a store front in 12th floor."

Once Heart began to recount the intel he gathered concerning the Vines swamping the Skull Ruins and proposed his hypothesis about Almanac involvement in unleashing the wrectched weeds, Ven found it immensely challenging to divide his attention between his research notes and the collecter's tale, but in the end he managed to. This wasn't the first (nor probably last) time multiple crucial and/or tantalizing information/work related subject vied for his total attention, but it was harder still in this case due to the nature of the threat those viles weeds and the threat they possed to the entire Cheshire region.

When they finished, the researcher took a few more minutes thinking over what they said while finishing reviewing this section of his notes, before he marked the page to expediently pick up where he left off, closed his journel(s) and putting them away, before he turned his head towards them and said: "My sincerest thanks in updating me on the present situation concerning those fiendish plants and Almanac's connection to ongoing events. While the evidence is circumstancal by itself, it is just another piece in the puzzle that reveals to us more and more that the corporation is, if not to be trusted, then at least highly suspect in their recent courses of action. I'll investigate their storefront myself when I acquire the chance, and perhaps I can use my credentials as a Unovain Researcher to get a tour of their Labs at the Department stores, or at the very least illicit some information about their ongoing research projects. Again, I thank you, and I'll be certain to divulge any intelligence I gather to you at the first opportunity, along to the rest of the group as a whole."

"Greetings, both of you! Sorry that I kept you people waiting, but thanks that you waited anyway... So, eh, Ven..."

 *coy smile* "If you're ready to get going, we can do so. First thing I desire to see is that Fountain of Brotherhood alongside Azu! From an online city map I picked up that it's not too far away from here, we should arrive there by foot in like five minutes."

If the rare Pokémon Collector had caused Ven to lapse into a more serious mood, then his dear blessed friend's arrival and her florally, beautifully adorned Azu his good cheer with ease. The sociologist offered Shiva yet another one of his Dazzling Smiles ®, then removed himself from the table ,bid Heart a geninuely polite farewell, and walked over to her side. "As I have said before this morning, I am at your disposal this day. Let us indulge in the sites, sounds, and experience this modern marvel of a city has to offer us, and see how it measures up to our own capital city and home Castelia, shall we?"

Order: Ventus is going to follow Shiva around the city today as planned, but if their is a chance to have a battle at the Fountain, I'm willing to place $1000 Poke on a Battle Versus Apsis that A) She has a type advantage towards B) Only one Healing Item per match C) (This is an absolute condition) Does not have Sleep inflicting moves, and D) No OHKO moves. That's all from me for now, folks!
