[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Lord Windos]

M....My Shield, my precious Shield! o(TヘTo) I want it back.... Iron, how long (in Actions) may it take for Melly to retrive it IF she can find it and return to the battlefield? Also, can I increase the odds of getting it back if I revive Whimsicott and send her to search for it too? She may not be able to FLY, but she's got Tailwind at least...

Related to that, since Melly has shot off to retrieve the Shield (And has presumably left the battlefield), if I increase Terra's DEX  by 2 (to *6, same as Nathan) and Athletics by 1 up to a stat total of 2 (Athletics increases Movement Speed) while she's using her sense of smell + Quick Attack, would she be able to find it faster (potentially; also, is she under the effects of Tailwind)  ?  I actually have plenty of XP to make those 'purchases', I've just held off spending any for a long time because I didn't need to have any Attribute/Specialty  increases, and I was saving up just in case their was an expensive Surprise! that benefit Terra greatly in the future. Now that The Shield has been wrested away from the group, though.....I can't afford NOT to spend XP, if doing so would help save our collective bacon!
