[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Dragonstrike]

As much as I see the logic behind Ventus's arguments, Nathan is interpretting it as 'leave them behind because they're combee and offer literally nothing useful at all.'

THAT is primarilly why Nathan is so frustrated.  And he really doesn't think a Tropius and a Clawitzer will be enough on their own to provide sustenance for 6 people and 30 pokemon if the situation is that desperate.

Valder already said he'd be willing to take one Combee, provided he has the space, so I'm going to stick to that so long as Zippy is willing to tag along without Princess (Valder can give him an eviolite to help him out a little with that bulk problem of his)

Also, I'd like to point out that Valder has pretty high Dex too on top of high Strength (as of Nathan's battle with him, which Nathan even pointed out to Ventus in character).  Valder still isn't as versatile, but he's just as competent in battle as Nathan is.
