[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

The first to find you is a beautiful, well-dressed woman who vaults down out of the Gatehouse to get to you before the crowds do. As she falls, she almost seems to slow... 

Her hair flows down and collects itself perfectly once she lands. In just a couple long strides, she has reached you with hand outstretched. "Angela. I collect pink Pokemon, and I won't insult you by offering to trade for that Dratini, but I wanted to say I love it! And it's a shame you had to use disobedient Pokemon. I can tell you and that Dratini had an amazing bond. And that you're fast. If you want to battle me, come to Area 6 during the week!"

She makes no mention of WHY you might want to battle her.

As for the Pokedolls, they are never shiny, but you could use Craft to alter it so it was.

Alrighty then.  My preference for what I'd like the pokedoll to be is still the same, though.

------------

Mizu just gives Angela a good, looooooonnnnnnngggg, unimpressed stare.  Oh, heck no.  No way would she want to be in the company of that person.  Nu uh.  Nope.  Not.  Happening.  Period.  And that definitely briefly gets an eyebrow raise from Nathan.  Hmmm...

Nathan crosses his arms at first when he responds to Angela.  "I didn't have to use a Disobedient pokemon.  Just figured I'd give it a shot since I thought they might be helpful.  That, and if they'd have beaten that Carvanha, I would have already won that battle because that Poliwrath wouldn't have been able to touch Delta Parasect, period.  I'm gonna have to have a good, looooonnnngggg talk with Delta Parasect later about using moves that fit the situation, though.  Not sure if they're trying to Spite me...not literally, of course...or if they're just not used to battling because everything in the Safari Zone, including pokemon like Arbok, seems to flee from them on sight."

Gallade vaults down as well to get back to Nathan's side at this point.  He gives Nathan a comforting pat on the back, then turns to properly greet Angela himself with a courteous nod.  He's eyeing her carefully, though...he did still catch wind of a little of what was going on between her and Spira, after all...it's hard to miss emotions like that when nobody else in the area is experiencing them.

Nathan sighs again, then shakes Angela's hand just to be polite as well.  He doesn't have any reason to vent his frustration with both himself and Delta Parasect on her (And hopefully it stays that way).  "Nathan.  Nathan Warren.  And I'd want to battle you because...?  You obviously want to battle me badly enough to take extra effort to ask before anyone else does, but I'm gonna need to know why before I make a decision on that."  The name sounds familiar to him, but he can't quite figure out why...

"Oh I see. I thought maybe you hadn't caught many obedient Pokemon. Some people don't prioritize very well. Sorry to lump you in with them. Really, I wouldn't miss the chance to use such a strange Pokemon either - and there have been stories about a ghostly mind-controlled Parasect for ages now. Pretty sure I've even seen it once or twice. Do you think there's more than one? Deltas don't always breed true..."

"Aren't journeying Trainers always looking to battle? Something in the eyes... But anyway, I'm the Gym Leader of Arrowroot Village. Angela? I don't know if anyone talks about me anymore, but I used to be kind of a big deal. I can give you an official badge if you beat me. I'll also tell you a secret, if you impress me. So yeah. Area 6 this week, outskirts of Elanor this weekend. Come find me."
