[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Spoiler

Sounds like people are in favor of traveling onward then.

You struggle through the wild a bit, occasionally finding faded tracks to help you. This takes up quite some time and results in very little progress. Eventually, just as you're probably beginning to get frustrated, you feel one final LURCH.

Arcanine is too powerful to be threaded by the Adamant Orb, so no threads available this time besides your own party.

You're now standing within sight of the Route to Teazel Valley. Immediately, your Pokeballs start blinking! Phones synced to 2017 now work, showing that only three hours have passed in 2017.

The pale light from Nathan's PTC stops existing, and your PTCs will no longer function except as watches.

On lurching to the present, Spira attempts to recall Hida to his Pokeball, and if that does nothing, Spira looks for him and re-collects the Midnight seed from the spot that he left it before the lurch (In case you missed the post where I said he'd leave it in 2011, here)

You journey up the mountainside. There, you find a Magcargo "rushing" toward you with a Magmarizer! It dims its heat as the two of you approach each other. 

Congratulations! Your Slugma has evolved into Magcargo!

Magcargo has lost 1 Happiness with you, but gained 2 Loyalty since you came back a thousand years later!!

It also has 111 XP, a +1 HP surprise, and a lot more hard-won wisdom.


In the company of Hida is another Magcargo, with a very long dripping beard. The same Magcargo you spotted 10,000 years in the past.
