[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

No response came from Shiva, as she just listened to what said further about that 'issue' with a carefuly expression and her arms loosely crossed while they keep Kyuu close her chest, as well as watching how Kirlia tried to help his owner. Indeed, loyal Pokemon being there for one are something great and valuable... Still Shiva got the feeling that the bond between Owner and Pokemon was a different one that she shared with her own companions. Not in a bad way though... She trains them differently, she probably thinks about them in a different manner, they were simply... ... ...what actually? Shiva failed to find words that described this in properly, which was noteable on its own.

Only when Nathan asked 'what kind of Pokemon is it?', a track of mind ended suddenly and she was back down on earth with her thoughts. "...Well... That'd be a Poochyena. These hyenalike hounds with the mighty bite... I stumbled over it on Route 4, or it crossed my path while I was following the path - that'd be a better description. Later at the camp while doing a bit of stargazing he came to me again and eventually he staying a Pokeball. Do forgive me that I cannot call him out to show you first-hand, as I, ehm, rather not distress Kyuu without a reason. It's Dark Type, know... That relieved me as it shows that it's not one of these... Delta Species. A photo will do for now." She got a weird expression when saying this - like being forced to swallow a bitter liquid. It only lasted for a moment though, as after drawing cell and typing+swiping on its screen she turned it around to show Nathan a photo she took of Yena - it clearly shows the tiny Butterfree-wings and with a bit of imagination one would realize this creature is indeed bioluminescent. "It seems to be some sort of adaptation, and these wings give him a unique ability. He doesn't seem to be aggressive as he obeys me and allows careful pets from my side, neither does he show weird behaviour that may hint to a messed up gene pool. Breeding weir hybrids is something I don't agree to, it's a grey area in Unova and something a professional Breeder just does not do. ...If I am honest and am allowed to say it, I...thought about giving it to Professor Mallorn to study for a while, before realizing this Pokemon can be a useful companion where Ghost Types dwell. For the same reason I've been looking into the creation of Cleanse Tags. Needs a little more effort from my side though... I'll ask again when heading into the Ruins or hiking through Earthstar Forest becomes a real thing."

"That's not the only thing I found out today..." Now that Nathan mentioned the South Wind during sharing what he did today, he earned an almost meaningful, heavy smile from her side. "A student from the local Extension told me about the Nuclear Type. There's even a course of study here, and Dagny seems to study those as Steel counters them... It sounds like not the healthiest Type, but there is an Evolution of Eevee that bears that Type, originating from Tandor that I never heard of - It calls itself 'Nucleon'. Matches greatly, now does it?~ I wonder if you ever heard about this?" Again she was reminded on these Delta Species, but she hoped that the thing about Nuclears was something different.

"As for the South Wind... The Fortune Hunter - you might have seen her selling treasures on Route 4 - has gifted me about a while ago. It contains native music - with lyrics! - from Hog Potato Swamp. Once piece especially mentions the South Wind - 'Your breath is the southern wind... The forests have been thinned... See Mother Nature cry'. From a different source I got to know that the folk was capable to summon the South Wind Incarnate with their music and instruments. They call this Incanate 'she', and 'she' flies them northward with no return home. The end of the earth hosts 'her' and other legends. Whatever this all may mean - it DOES mean something."

"Oh right, I also did not know until now that we're actually in the Southern Hemisphere - this enables seeing strange and unique stars of Chreshire. It seems there is a rare chance to find a unique legend in these unique stars. My telescope lies safely at a shelf in my room at home though."


(Actually, I kinda wonder at this point how the others of the group would react to hear about all this as well. Especially Ventus, I don't really know why.)
