Then the ground shakes, and an entire ridged, rutted section of the road lifts out of place and rotates slightly. This occurs just as the wagon passes overhead, so the wagon is borne upward and carried forward as an oversized Rhyhorn steps out of a hole! The behemoth has bits of railroad track and a road sign buried in its stony hide. It's charging at Gogoat.
You guys are slightly off to the side of the road, but near enough you'll be deafened by the collision of these three entities!
But that's not all. A scruffy Stoutland is running determinedly toward the carriage - and so is Dizzy! They both look eager to get their first, but they sure don't look like they have a plan beyond that.
The commotion awakens an Emboar and a Dewott on the adjacent farm, and BOTH come rushing over intending to challenge the Rhyhorn!
(...)
3. Name: Emboar and Dewott
Challenge: Moderate
Cap: 2 (2)
Bid start: 1
Notes: Looking pretty militant right now. Shiva thinks maybe that Dewott is supposed to keep an eye on the flaming pig, but char marks on the fence makes it clear that doesn't always work. Dewott maybe even goes along with it sometimes, like right now!
In regards to Spira joining the group (temporarily or not, ohohoho!), the rugged wanderer was more or less fine with it, so long as everyone else agreed to the mustachioed breeder tagging along. More people to watch and safeguard obviously made his job harder, but from what he's heard/witnessed they seemed like an perfectly alright (if a bit spooky) and competent Trainer, so having them around wasn't a bother.
Despite that, however, he choose to remain silently stoic around them for the time being, using only nodding/shaking/non-verbal ques to answer or 'speak' if they approached him for conversation/questioning, and kept mostly close to Shiva up until Rhydon pierced the heavens (As he wants to make sure she's absolutely alright after the Time Lurch). His reticence to interact with the fellow foreigner is not because he disdained them in any way, but rather because they were..... quite unfamiliar to him, and was uncertain as to go about interacting with them man as a result. With Nathan, Shiva, and Heart, he already knew what to expect from them based on what Ven told him in various ways, and therefore had a much easier time integrating himself with them.
But with Spira? A man he only meet recently (and tangentially, at that), and knew next to nothing about? Not someone that was easy to chat up for the mountain of a man. Especially since they were a resident of the past - who knows what might happen if he says or does the wrong thing with them? Not him! Nope, better if he keep his mouth shut and to himself in order not make a fool of himself or a mess of things, even if it means missing out on the chance to get to know the mustachioed breeder better.... (That's my justification as to why Terra's not interacting with Spira! Maybe he will later, but for now its radio silence!)
- Transition: Rhydon's Debut! -
When )%+.CHAOS!?@#* ensued upon the ground dino bursting through the earth, Terra nearly fell on his arse in surprise at their dynamic entrance, but he quickly recovered and started fingering his Net Ball and glaring at them, ready to wipe them out like a stubborn dirt stain! Before he could act out his intentions, however, Heart already beat him to the punch, shouting his plans to take on the stone beast before speeding off to do just that! Shiva was quick to follow after the collector, which briefly surprised him given how.....fraught things were for her now, and how charging off into a colossal fight seemed rather unusually risky for her. Did the group's trip through time shake her up THAT much to displace her from their normal behavior....?
Finally, he saw Calam suddenly summon itself and race of to put an end to the disaster in progress, with Nathan right behind them trying to keep up and shoot for them to wait. In any other situation that would make for a funny sight, but right now there was no time for laughing matters!
Regardless of the reasons breeder, scholar, and collector choose to fight Rhydon*, the simple monk soon shook his head and just accepted their decision, watching and shouting out some advice them/to them as they went off to confront the Ground Dino. "Shiva, Heart, Nathan, be careful! That Pokemon looks big and tough, so hit its Weakness to take it down quick! Try to Knock it Down if you can, and watch out for its horn, because it could know Horn Drill! Maybe Earthquake too!"
After saying this, he turned towards the rapidly approaching Fiery fat red relative of a Spoink and some sort of ronin fish dog (Ignorance of Non-Hoen Pokemon strikes again!) he caught sight of earlier and boldly stride forward to bar their path toward Rhydon*, summoning both Anubi and Angie in front of him to force them to Fight them instead of adding to the CHAOS! While he would have preferred if the group stayed well out of danger, he couldn't or wouldn't necessarily fault them for doing so to prevent a catastrophe from happening, and he knew them all to be competent enough to fight without his aid now, so he'll leave the Rock Beast to them while he takes on these buff looking farm animals!
Orders: Terra's fighting Emboar and Dewott all by himself, with Anubi and Angie being his first picks because he wants to REALLY put them to the test, and believes they are up for it! Waiting on initiatives now! Oh, and what are their reactions to being in their first serious fight with their partner/father? Particularly Angie's, since unlike Anubi she's never been in a proper fight, and her papa is throwing her up against a meaty challenge already!
