(...) Fainted Pokemon can only be afflicted with physical statuses - freeze, burn, paralysis, poison. (...)

I'll make a big bold paper note of that because so far I struggled to find a pattern of what's working once fainted and what not.

Ah, so if the Swam Attack ignored defenses, that's still 6 points of damage for Whimsi, but one seed Shiva once gathered from Juni's Sceptile will quickly patch that up for the fluffball.

Her main question and curiosity is now: As soon as that Raffiti and jetblack rodent are successfully captured, what's with that special pitchblack darkness? Shiva was believing that the latter is 'the reason' for it. Or does it have to do with the arches?? Are there any other hints??

Once being outside of the darkness at some point but BEFORE regrouping with the others, Shiva will also take the time to read the full entry of that 'Raffiti' in her Almanac; as said she's not afraid to draw this controversial device in Arachna's presence. She even has a timid question for the edgy spider-helix-woman, there's a lot of interest in her voice: "Hey, Arachna... These gauntlets, they're Almanac Technology, aren't they...? What status or weight do actually other product by them have for your people, do you use more of their inventions? I'm just....curious, if I may.... Hehe." *shy scratching of her head*



*Much later*

Huuuuuhhhh, Delta Raichu and an appearant Dark Type. Guess it was correct that this is a Pokemon so far unknown to science, Shiva does not feel any regret or grief over leaving it for Arachna to catch and keep: She herself would be quick to sell or trade this... this DELTAMON *this word always has a bitter taste for her* to some collector or to Professor Mallorn.

But, Shiva will still take her requested photo and drawing of that creature, and she'll add notes about it's behaviour and anything that's distinguishing it from a normal Raichu. She obviously enjoys these more.
