[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

Terra has absolutely no objection with Nathan's proposal, only nodding his head before reaching into one of his pants many pockets, pulling out then then tossing over an Antidote to them. He and his Pokémon had bee Poisoned several times throughout their journeys through Hoen, and it quite [i]sucked[/i] enduring the nauseous damage it inflicted, to put it succulently. It may cost him an Antidote for being so generous/accommodating, but the rugged man considered it a fair and right price to pay for Genie's Toxic shenanigans...

When Calam was released onto the battlefield, his eyes actually widened in both recognition and surprise at seeing the boy own an Absol, and a seasoned veteran on of that!

"So Ven was right about you owning a Dark Prophet. Strong, old and scarred one, too.  Hmm....You hold no fear for it, only great love and respect, and he fully returns it. Very rare....*Nods his head and smiles* but very good to see. Dark Prophets thought of as.....doombringers by many, but they only warn of what is to come. They do their part to prepare us for disaster, and help us if they can or allowed. It is a noble Pokémon at heart, and I am glad you could see that and bond with them."

The wandering monk's expression then firmed up again, as he motioned for Lovely to get ready for some grueling combat, to which they respond with a graceful nod of their head as they unwound themselves and slithered towards the mountain cat. He knows the great Strength and fortune Absols possess, so he must be ready to squeeze the consciousness out of them before they slash him to fishy bits! For his master and himself, he must win this!!!

"Let me and Lovely see now how strong the Dark Prophet Calam has grown under you, Nathan."

Saying that, Terra goes silent, and watches the battle unfold from here on out. It could go either way at this point in his mind.....and he couldn't help but keep smiling at that thought. How long has it been since he's been this challenged, or meet someone that could be his equal?

He didn't know, but it didn't matter all that much either.

What mattered to him, really, was the thrill and passion of a good fight, and Nathan was sure giving him one of those!

Nathan smiles at Terra's comments concerning Calam.  "He's shown us things we never thought we'd see and helped save lives at the risk of his own.  It's a great honor to be friends with him."

And then without much warning at all, Calam's leaped forwards to start his assault against this almost insurmountable challenge...
