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

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

Arrowroot also had a big, blinking arrow overhead that said we needed to get there ASAP by any means necessary.  At the moment, unless something important happens before we leave Cress, there aren't any locations that absolutely require us to be there immediately.  I agree that the fossil probably isn't in immediate danger of being found, but the longer we wait, the more time that whoever is searching for it has to decide to decide to check another location besides the actual bay.  If they've been looking for Genesect Fossils for almost a decade, they're probably running out of places to check.

We still probably want to know where it is/might be.  It'll be an adventure and a half to get it, I'm sure, and the odds of just stumbling upon it are rather low.  Dive as a standard move is not very widely distributed.

I'm simply suggesting that we attempt to factor the Diving into our plans of where to go next.  In my opinion, that's better than wandering aimlessly, waiting for a big plot point to appear mere inches in front of our faces.  If something else comes up in the middle of the plan and we have to deal with it, we go deal with it as necessary.

Yeap, going to Arrowroot was pretty much mandatory since it was the only lead we had before we figured out where/what The Tusk was, so fully agree with you there mate! As for other locations to visit, Ven has a couple in mind he wants to visit before getting caught up in yet another stressful quest, but he can do that in his own time with Haziel so tracking down where HM Dive is sounds like the wise course of action. Sooner we get it, sooner we can go find the Genesect Fossil and retrieve/destroy it so that the Scims or Alma don't get it! If something pops up to prevent us from getting Dive right away/ever, then we adapt and move on!

Plus, Ao Gaung would appreciate having such a prestigious and POWERFUL move in his arsenal, so I'm all for getting the HM ASAP just for that reason alone!
