[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

The night passes by uneventfully.

It is now Day 60.

When you release your Pokemon for breakfast, you find that several are missing!

-Mightyena!
-Durant!
-Ralts!
-Slowking!
-Zippy!
-Raticate!
-Growlithe!
-Slurpuff!

AHHH!

Their footprints can be found in the frost of the tunnel to the North.

Mr. Finder: "Oh no, no, no, this is not good. This is not good. This is not good. Without Slurpuff, I only know the next two or three twists and turns. We're lost down here, lost forever, no no no! I knew I should have charged more, or just never accepted at all!"

Upon awaking, going through his usual rituals, and then releasing his family for their morning meal, Ventus reacts predictively to the unpleasant news that his and the group's Pokémon has been kidnapped (he autmotically assume the worst, as per his paranioa): with instant and extreme RAGE.

"......Calm yourself, Mr. Finder. Panicikng will only serve to be unproductive and doom us all, so get a hold of yourself now," the researcher grounds outs, his tone of voice filled with barely restrained anger and righteous indignation , his patience and mood dangerously low as he regarded the sniveling man with thinly vieled tolerance. He then takes a deep breath and lets it out to becalm himself, before continuing in a much less hostile tone of voice.

"Malphena and Lucifer help ascertain the location of that despicable thief, as my sister can track the no doubt negative and fearful emotions experienced by our Pokémon being taken , and the former can scout ahead and specifically search for the sounds of footsteps or....commotion. My brother can also use Tailwind in conjuction with us mounting Swiftfire, Yule, and Mamo to swiftly catch up to that wretched scoundrel, so whatever head start they may have on us will not last them for much longer. Nathan, given your light weight and naturally high speed, you could also borrow Raphael and use Extreme Speed to locate them in swift order, but you would leave the rest of us behind as a consequence. The choice is yours in the end, and I will not fault you for taking if that is what you wish to do. They took Ralts, Solomon, and Skippy from you, after all."

He gestures to both of the afformentioned family members (he's returned the rest after......the news became known), and looks at the rest of the group in a no nonsense and authoritative way with his arms crossed.

"Well, do you all have any objections, or plans of your own to contribute rescuing our Pokémon ASAP? Speak quickly, as the more time we spend discussing this, the more time that bastard gets on further ahead...."
