[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Jerry teaches Pangoro how to shake a Ragepowder from his little bamboo sprout while taunting. The skill of these ultimate move tutors is amazing. Jerry can, in the course of an hour, teach several Pokemon their moves by releasing dozens of Bug Pokemon at them in quick succession, so they're forced to learn the new move quickly or be overwhelmed.

(don't worry about the time it takes, that won't count against you in any way)

(I'm taking this as your agreement and approval that Shiva can visit the Sacred Grove once we head in direction of Prime/Real Deoxys. Yay, thank you!!)

Shiva's very fascinated by Jerry's skill and watches closely how he tutors her big panda. Releasing powder from the bamboo sprout is a good idea! Once's Jerry's done, she gives him a thankful handshake and Pangoro an approving punch into his side. "May I propose...another question that I'm interested in? *presumably gets approval* What does it take for a 'normal' Move Tutor to become one like you, able to teach some selected moves to ANY Pokemon?" She would enjoy to specialize in some Fairy Type moves if she ever becomes that skilled, obviously.

Let's teach Ragepowder to Yena as well while we're already on it. Another 1500$ for Jerry! He can easily release powder from his big wings.

Marco flies back down after a bit, his face perfectly dry.
"I'm off to see your mother. You can spend the night at the farmhouse, right? Gallade can get you there?" He hands back the Pokedex.

Has he retrived HM FLY yet? ( o.o)? Because Shiva would like to see the fascinating device and teach it to some suitable Pokemon of hers, but this does not have to happen now because happy family reunions have priority.

Speaking about HMs, Shiva would try to contact Professor Mallorn and return the loaned HM FLASH, telling him a bit about what they encountered down the Ruins. "It was scary and hard and tough, but we all have made it just fine!!!"

Heart trading Pokemon online for nice stuff inspired me for one more thing Shiva does while she's staying at the Center among citizans seeking shelter: Using either the PC or her cellphone to contact Telperion and see what they would offer her for that Great White Sharpedo she caught within the Skull Ruins. It's quite the exemplar, being white, sporting amazing +2 Strength and every move bar the ?-ones. It's featuring a honed sense of smell at the cost of its eyesight, so all in all Shiva thinks that it'd make a good source of research if handled with precaution and kept under safety measures.

She's not quite sure what she'd like to have in return though, certainly no cash as she's got enough savings now for get along for a while, no bred Pokemon since she likes to train and bond with some she already has, and she's happy with the Held Items on her current party. However... What about TMs of the Elemental Punches for Pangoro? Is Sharpedo worth a batch of all three, or at least Thunder and Ice Punch? They're on Pancham's list of ?-moves.

If Telperion accepts, Shiva gently asks to be named and registered as the donator of this special shark.

Furthermore, before night falls, Shiva will dare to wander town a little, positive that Yena, Pangoro and her sixth sense will alert her of any danger while the Shield protects her from just those. She's observing the damage dealt to Cress City and just wishes for some solitude to sort her thoughts and mentally prepare for departure in direction Prime Deoxys tomorrow...

...She doubts that Angela is lurking around here, even less in Elanor because that the site of impact, but she can at least TRY to find her here? She feels she's maybe at the Nature Preserve, too far away unfortunately. Damn, Shiva can't even contact her because she doesn't have a cell! But having seen the fellow fairy-enthusiast's skill and power in the Gym Battle, Shiva would rejoice a lot to see her defending the region as well or send some Pokemon at least. Plus familiar-face-bonus.

Another thought comes to her while walking around and waving some space dust away: The Shield prevents the complete effect of Psychic Assaults, meaning damage and additional effects. Can it....prevent Pokemon from being captured by Deoxys as well? This doesn't have to be answered now, but it's something Shiva's curious about and will pay attention to.
