[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

"Howl takes all challengers who seem prepared. He is not picky. Yes, you can challenge me or any of the Kennelmasters at his Gym - he keeps a lot of canine Pokemon."

Ohhh, he's into canine Pokemon. Hummm.... Shiva's suprised over herself that this doesn't come as much of a suprise to her. 'At least he's gotten good company in his dogs', she calmly thinks to herself, 'That's nice to know.' 

She perks up suddenly just when she realized she was about to drift away with her thoughts. "I'll certainly come back to the offer of the battle sooner or later, thank you! Ah, and thanks for the moves you thaught my Pokemon... We'll see one another again for sure, by for now!~ Come on, Glaceon, Helios, Ophelia, we've got stuff to do." With that she bids goodbye to him for now with a strong feeling that they'll meet again dwelling within her. Dog Pokemon...

Shiva's quick to find the Gym in town, with a toneless chuckle she realizes that this underground bunker of a Gym matches its leader quite well. Despite she can feel the darkness and restrained emotions somewhat surrounding it - or coming from below? - she doesn't seem afraid to actually come closer, maybe maaaybe maaaaaybe it's because she's figuratively throwing around fairy dust by her sole presence like a Sylveon armored with two bags of confetti and one large boquet of dandelions. She... She's also certain that Howl's well prepared for anyone aiming to crash his black walls with fae magic alone, yes.

For a while and only if it doesn't bother anyone, she'll find a place nearby to sit and watch the training place for a bit among her own Pokemon, to observe the puppies enjoying their life and youth, it's a pleasant and fun sight for her. Howl's probably also breeding canine Pokemon, she guesses.

Time passes, and all too soon the sun is standing high on the sky, a particular natural fae enthusiast is taking fast steps within Cress City as if in search for someone. She's wearing some of her best/most professional clothes and has a big and gentle Togekiss floating by her side; it is constantly cooing and humming in a pleasant tone.

"Can you see her somewhere, Raphael? Remember, we've been told so look out for a woman with a red hat here... Oh! Look, dear one, there, next to mart!!" Excitedly she point it out towards the archangel, then encourages him to follow. A bit out of breath yet delighted, Shiva approaches this ominous woman and takes stance that obviously tries to appear confident - 'tries'. "H-hello! You must be... Leslie, is that right? I'm Shiva, you can simply call me like that if it's fine for you, here's my Trainer's Lisence." She gently hands it to her like a business card. "Has someone told you I'd come around noon? I phoned concerning that Togepi that formerly was in the hands of Water Scimitar Leader Juni and that's been handled as....'evidence'" , she still spits that one word out like a bitter and rotten berry, "I've been told they're ready to be given into the hands of a more suitable caretaker."

Mechanics:
That's the next thing on the list. The party of Shiva has been switched to Cottonee, Helios, Raphael and Tropius + Ophelia and Fuchsia, and Raphael stays out the whole time the topic of Togepi is handled. If Helios can't teleport Shiva to Cress City from Elanor, she'll take the rest of the way airbound with Tropius. If he can, Tropius still is in her party. Last post from my side today.
