[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

A massive sigh escapes Shiva, she doesn't even care to make it impercible. "Bah. These Scimitars.... They're probably not knocking at Atheneum's door THAT soon, but you're probably right that they shouldn't make an appearance anywhere near the Gauntlet. Or the Stone. Or us.... Because if they do, they will pay." *suggestive glance over to Ventus, before due to thinking of the Scims she makes a face as if there was a lemon hidden among the fruit she was happily noming and she hasn't noticed until it was too late*



"Humm. Give me a little and I'll come up with suggestions for riddles that they might - will - hopefully struggle with. Mine were:

"Water, Thunder, Fire...I am eight elements in one. Who am I?"

"I Splash in the stream and I follow my dream and I grew and I flew and you can too. What Pokemon am I?"

"...am I also right in the assumption that the answer to yours is...and Everstone?"

Solosis goes and hides behind a stack of nearby books while this discussion is going on.  Kirlia goes over there to comfort her and assure her everything will be okay.

"...hmmm...are the answers to those riddles..."

Spoiler

...Seikamater and Magikarp?

Nathan shakes his head in response to Shiva's answer to his riddle. That's definitely not the answer.

Shiva however looks at Nathan, in a less annoyed but still deadpan expression. "Eh... You know, given the state I found you in after the battle, dear, I guess it was definitely hard. Darmanitan usually rely on brute force, and these very very few exemplars that are able to enter a Zen-like trance are also capable to let loose an enormous amount of psychic energy if triggered enough."

"...well, a Darmanitan would be difficult to handle...was it just trying to blitz through everything?  I'd like to know the details."

(I'm going to assume Ventus fills everyone in)

"...so it was a huge, super strong Darmanitan with Sheer Force that definitely knows how to Fight and Brawl that challenged you to a 1v1...and you won partially because you used Destiny Bond..."

...Nathan shudders. He's rather glad he wasn't the one who attempted that battle, to be honest...

"...that sounds like it'd probably be difficult for anyone.  Well, provided it has physical moves other than its Fire STABs...might have to ask Slaking for more detail on that one, but it can probably remain unchanged...if they don't have ways to cheese it by using moves like Destiny Bond and various status inflicting moves, it might just outright cream them..."

"This time, I must agree. As much those Scimitars is having problems in find this place, we still need to deal with them. Even more they are in the entrance of Mt. Sentry, sending Reuniculus and Solosis to search though this place. Those guy will not giving up yet. And I agree with Nathan to discuss that issue, now. Because if not, when? Also my riddle was:"

"Some call me the first step to slavery, some the first step to friendship. Fruit of the bush and work of human hand. Who am I?"

"I did not know the answear. I always terrible in riddles."

"...well, that one doesn't sound too hard.  Before we answer it, though, what was the answer you gave?"

Nathan also looks at Valder/@Nylon.  "And what was your riddle and the answer you gave in response?"
