[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

Spoiler

Heart put a hand in his shoulder. "I can relate with that feeling Nats. In the little Cup Koa has lost to a Chansey. And back in that time, he was more obedient. We are in the same boat my friend. But dont let that depress you. There will better battles from now on. You have captured some cool Pokemon with you. Not only that but you have also captured a Delta Parasect and a Shiny Dratini. Talking about making me jealous, heh. Not that I can complain since I got a Delta Pikachu, a Exeggcute and a Gligar."

"The last its not that rare, but they have they use. I already have a Razor Claw, so I can have a fully evolved Gliscor, with is very much awesome. And Exeggcute have access to Sleep Powder. Not the most accurate move, but at least have better accuracy than Hypnosys. No offense Gallade, you are still the most awesome Telepathic fighter I ever know. Remind me to let Rose have a spar with you."

"Also, I migh need to buy a Flinch item too...that Razor Claw helped me quite a lot in Flinch foes with successive attacks like Heracross...want to help me with some info where I can buy one Nathan? You are the smart guy in Cheshire. I just the enciclopedia guy in Pokemon."

"I also pretty tired, so I might take tomorrow to take a full day of rest. After our many adventures, I didnt have a proper chance to sleep very much well. I also think in make some Berry Milkshake later before sleep. Is you and Gallade interested in drink too?"

"...maybe, but I was really hoping to do better than I did..."

Since it's semi on topic, Mizu's not really paying much attention to Heart either.  She gives him a curious glance much like the one she gave Spira, then goes back to minding her own business.

Gallade shrugs non-chalantly when Heart refers to him.  He has ways to make Hypnosis work.  When Heart mentions sparring with Rose, Gallade simply nods, but there's a hidden determination underneath that stoic facade.  Next time he and Rose meet on the battlefield, he'll be ready.

Nathan's response to Heart's ramblings about the pokemon he's caught and the Razor Fang: "...well, Exeggcute aren't exactly super rare either, to be honest...but yes, they do have some good debuffs.  If you're looking to evolve that Gligar but still have a similar hold item to use, I actually do know of a place where you might be able to get one without too much trouble..."

Nathan digs through his bag and eventually pulls out a fang of some kind to show to Heart.

"Genuine Houndoom Fang," he explains.  "Or, as the salesman called it at the Violet Tent in Cress, a 'Fang of Houndoom's Rage'.  If Orthros's fascination with it is any indication, though, it's definitely the real deal.  Cost me a pretty penny, though.  $2000 for one of 'em.  Same salesman also has Dragon Fangs for $4000 apiece, and Dragon Scales for $3000 each.  Pricey, but they're definitely what the salesman says they are...even if there are some little...embellishments concerning a few details here and there.  Anyways, as far as I can tell from my own usage of the item, it has the exact same effect as holding a Razor Fang or King's Rock."

As for the milkshake offer...Nathan takes a deep breath, then slowly lets it out.  "...yeah, that might actually be kinda nice if you have the materials on hand to make one.  We'll be in the Center later.  Got a lot of plans to make and notes to review...just don't put any Chesto Berries in it. I'd rather not be up all night."
