[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Great! Everyone seems pumped for the Safari Cup! It's traditional to see a lot of hard hitters and fast action. Plus, usually you can expect a few rampages and disqualifications and hilarious disobedience! Especially in the early rounds. The later rounds are winnowed down to the best trainers of the best.

'Everyone'... This probably - or rather: certainly - does include the audience and spectators, and Shiva soon feels a bit overwhelmed by the sheer anticipation and eager the crowd is radiating from all sides. She's able to 'sense' all of that pretty real and unadorned, it's like a wave is crushing into her without any mercy and is threathening to carry her alone without asking whether she is fine with it at all! It's much, muuuch different than watching a Cup or League Battle at home on the screen with a bowl of snacks and Spectral cuddled up to her, but not necessarily in a bad way: Quite the contrary, the chances that Shiva soon will enjoy this event are pretty good. The only thing that she may be unprepared for is to see violent rampages and harsh disobediance from sides of the freshly-caught Pokemon, but she also can't help but to be a bit curious to see what the participants have caught and how they'll handle their new catches.

She'll keep Angela's company if she's fine with it, enjoy being with another lover of Fairy Types. If there's enough room and if it's allowed, all of Shiva's current Pokemon on hand are out to watch as well, with Nightshade safely nestled on her shoulder and between strands of her Master's hair and Raphael gliding across the sky in raw and unrestricted freedom. Shiva hasn't made it yet to return the first aid kit she has been given for her duties as a Volunteer Ranger - partly because there wasn't any time to do that yet, partly because she wanted to quick-ask whether she can keep that Sawsbuckknife while doing so. Such a useful and precious tool!


-----------------------
I won't bother to bring up reactions for Shiva on everything, but instead keep these for selected and interesting happenings; in short for these who it appears reasoned for her to act, say or think something. Something like a very unexpected occurance, an obvious Deltamon, a strong-looking challenger appearing.
I've got a small question as well, @Iron: Is she able to see all of the rolled out battles, only few, do they happen all at once and are scattered across the whole area, or is it more like only two people are battling at the same time and that they're rolled out simultaneously is more for practical's sake? Just would like to know in order to not have her react on something that she technically isn't possible to witness.
