"I've actually seen Pokemon evolve down here without actually giving it a Sunstone."
*rolls* Not right now for Gloom, though. Since Cottonee wasn't out, she won't get the chance, which is probably what you want anyway.

Yes, if Cottonee suddenly would be to evolve now, that'd mess us my planned evolution scene completely. :< Gloom can evolve if he likes though, or maybe not because Shiva will withdraw him after this scene for rest.

(...) Afterwards, he immediately goes over to his whimsical friend's side and gently places a hand on her shoulder to get her attention, looking at her with attentive concern as he pulled out a Hyper Potion and Sitrus Berry and motioned with them at Gloom.

"Gloom okay, Shiva? Injuries look bad, but have medicine to treat them, if you want. They will be okay, so do not worry....." (...)

Shiva shrieks a bit as Terra's hand touches her shoulder, suggestion needs a lot of concentration from the one performing it. Luckily though, the train of thought didn't break and everything worked out fine, as that nasty bleeding has stopped thanks to the healthy surroundings. Healthy surroundings for certain Pokemon that is, Shiva  coughs a bit from all that dust dancing in the light of the lanterns. 

Still holding Gloom very close to her in her arms - she, eh, is actually suprised about herself that she's not in the slightest afraid about his poisonous traits ('My dear, that may be because this poisonous Gloom is YOUR OWN Pokemon', her inner voice singsangs) - , Shiva turns towards Terra and gives him a assuring nod and faint smile. "It's okay, look, he's doing better. But, ah, if you're really okay with it, I gladly accept this Sitrus Berry - yes, thank you. How dear of you, aww!~" She puts it gently into Gloom's stubby arms. "Here you go, please eat this, while the taste is a bit tangy it'll do wonders if consumed after a painful experience. Let me also use this on you to fully restore your vitality, 'kay? It MAY sting a bit, but it's much better afterwards."

With the Sitrus Berry from Terra and the Potion from Shiva (the one Foreman Fortescue handed out), Gloom's lethal damage is fully healed!~ Shiva will recall him into his Ball for now to rest.



That tromping noise is giving Shiva chills, and the sound of metal gives her double. She instinctively steps a bit closer to Delphox who radiates warmth and comfort, and also provides light. "Terra, whatever is down there... It sounds and feels like a biiig Pokemon, but there doesn't seem to be any way around it, they asked us to deal with it. I guess we...must engage it in a battle and defeat it, now that all the miners are off it'd be best if we'd also catch it, wouldn't you say?" A telling break follows in which Shiva's originally insecure stance slowly developes into a bold and unafraid one: ".....I am ready when you are."

But before that: "Delphox, can you please cast another chant for us? We could use fortuna's blessing against that 'thing'. Yes, exactly, try to stay away from the water." Glaceon however is intrigued by said stream or what is left of it at the moment, he splashes a bit in it with a paw as if trying to catch these sparkles. As Shiva adresses him though, he stops playing and perks up. "Please reinforce your willpower with a hearty howl, dear one, we need to approach whatever is blocking this stream."

(If rolls are needed for these buffs before a likely fight, it's 10d6 both for Delphox's Lucky Chant and Primal Glaceon's Howl.))
