[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

Survival: (1)(1)(1)(4)(6) You don't find anything great, just a few earthworms which are akin to Standard Bait. So you dip a Persim Berry in Honey and drop it into the biggest body of water nearby, which seems to be a spring-fed pond of considerable size.

Fishing check (also Survival): (3)(2)(4)(1)(3) + (5)

Rarity: (6)(5) = 11

You feel a huge tug on your rod, but just then Princess and Zippy get back... with several other Combee in tow? There are half a dozen, all following Princess somewhat calmly despite Zippy sipping around her at high speed, determined to protect her.

They all deposit honey, giving you twice the usual amount. +1 Happiness, +1 Loyalty. (long overdue, really).

Then you reel in the huge fish Pokemon, and find it is nearly as long as a Gyarados! It doesn't seem nearly so fierce, though it does have a massive mouth snapping at everything in sight and nearly chewing right through the macromolecule line of the Super Rod. It's much tubbier than a Gyarados.



I don't think Nathan would have ever heard of this or seen it, but you have heard of foreign Pokemon washing inland from the oceans, possibly released by ships accidentally. You figure this washed in as a smaller Pokemon and grew to this great bulk!

As you're pondering how to fight it, Princess flies forward determinedly! She wants to help.

(Neat!  That puts Princess at 4 Happiness and 5 Loyalty!  And on the note of Tubareel...my initial guesstimate notes are simply a '...great...hungry fish...' and nothing more than that!  Yeah, not exactly a pokemon that Nathan would have been likely to have heard much specific about.  Is this one using the beta design instead of the final one?)

Nathan looks at Princess curiously.  "Do you have a plan?  Because I'm all for supporting it if you've got one!  Let's get Grid to help us too!  His typing is perfect for this situation!"

Let's swarm this fish with bugs!  Are those Wild Combee going to help? If Princess wants to flex some of her leadership skills, now might be a good chance to do so!
