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

[Dragonstrike]

If things can escalate into a battle very easily anyway, wouldn't it be best to take initiative and start a battle ourselves instead of allowing things to go drastically wrong in an attempt to prevent a battle and result in a fight much likely anyway? I....I would rather carefully say so. ._. That, and from our current positon we should have enough time to boost/prepare before approaching closer.

It might be, yes.  Which is why I suggested the possibility of freeing all of our pokemon preemptively to get them out of danger sooner rather than later.

Or if we can Hypnotize Seika without starting a battle immediately, we can free them and book it while queeny snoozes for a few minutes and can't call for help.  Ralts is potentially in the best position to attempt that.

Solomon's Hidden Power could give us some crucial info potentially as well if we do end up in a battle.

I also don't think Iron would have thrown us under the bus, so to speak.
