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

[Lord Windos]

As far as Delta Forretress goes, Windos, I'm fine with making an exception for it provided:

- You tell Nathan it's being traded to Dagny
- And you let Nathan be present during that exchange

Perfectly fine with those conditions, though you may want Nathan hide the HM with someone else/in a secluded locations first before the meeting, just in case Dagney searches both our characters and confiscates it for whatever reason. Being deliberately dodgy about how a Forrestress learned ROCK SMASH is also ideal, and Ven will bring that and the idea of hiding the HM away before the meeting. Liability insurance, and all that.

For Scyther, they can learn Rock Smash AFTER they evolve and receive camp training, since that is within the guidelines you set up and its not all to crucial for them to learn the HM right away. Don't like having to delay it, but I'm willing to do so in this case.

K.

I'd also recommend delaying Larvitar and Marowak until we're back on the surface.  Be honest with Nathan about the purpose at that point and I can reasonably have him make the exception IC.

Why delay it, and wouldn't Ven openly telling them those Pokémon were all but going to be illegally sold/acquired not only rile them up badly (like the time they questioned where he got the Dubious Disk), but also implicate them in such a crime? The main reason I want it done now is so that the trades can be done discretely as possible without risking anyone's neck but Ven's , so being honest about Ven selling them on the Black Market to no doubt unscrumpulous persons after hearing Nathan seriously lecture NOT DOING THAT OR BAD STUFF HAPPENS seems....disingenuous and too contrary for it to work IC. IMO, its better to keep this as secretive as possible, to avoid as much backlash as possible.
