[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

"Eeeeehhhhh... Okay, ehm, I'll pass on that Delcatty then. Thanks... Oh dear Reshiram." ..."However, what about you, Gothitelle? *gently looking into its direction* I enjoyed your vision greatly, especially Ursaring Major and how the constallation went on after these vines withered. (Not mentioning that the aftermath of it was a slightly muddled feeling like staying close to an Aromatisee for long)  Oh, I already own a few Psychic Types too... As well as evolved an Abra to a Kadabra under my care. Would you be interested in seeing how we two would get along?"

For now, Shiva respectfully stays outside the boundary.

"The cost of taking care of Gothitelle is about $5500 - that's what we ask for. It's a bargain for a fully evolved rare Pokemon who already knows moves. And of course no one can put a price on friendship, if Gothitelle decides you'd be a good trainer."

Insight + Empathy:
(3)(2)(1)(4)

Gothitelle still refuses to cross the boundary, but beckons Shiva closer until she is right up against it. Then Gothitelle cocks her head, inviting a response. 



A clarification for Ventus: Gothitelle was very specifically projecting an image onto reality rather than into Ventus' brain. This would be very noticeable for the empath. It's believable that his associations would bring on mental pain though. 


"Pyroar is relatively gentle with humans, refusing to hurt them. If provoked, he is capable of amazing gentleness, such as taking their hand harmlessly in his mouth! Even children. But Pokemon, he will first Roar at, then attack, if they do the slightest thing to anger them. Fortunately for us, he never starts fights. He was left on our doorstep in an Ultra Ball, and didn't seem interested in our standard Luxury Balls. "

"Ariados is really interesting. The Bug doesn't enjoy battling and won't obey commands issued in battle. But here in our Shelter she is calm and somewhat obedient. She seems to give the other Pokemon advice and love. Gentle with humans, too, but perhaps we don't really register with her. She's also partially blind. Krookodile came from a trainer who used to have a (different) Spinarak, which explains their bond. Sandile evolved against the trainer's will. They didn't have a Pokedex or Everstone to cancel evolution."

"Rotom we didn't even INVITE into our Shelter, but it's against the feeling in our hearts to kick him out. He's worse than a virus'd Porygon. Strong though."

"Kingdra's story makes me most angry. It was evolved by a researcher delving into the Skull Ruins lore. Apparently some of the lower levels are waterlogged. He theorized that royal Pokemon had some sort of relation to Sarimanok. Bunch of Watchogwash if you ask me. When the experiment failed to yield results and his Seadra became disobedient, Kingdra was sent to us. 'Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons!' they say, and it applied here. "
