[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

The Gym Leader of Tumbleweed Town is named Achilles. He specializes in Fighting Pokemon, as the name suggests. He's been around as long as you've been alive, getting progressively stronger. Fighting isn't considered a very good defensive type, though, as a common Route 01 Pidgey can be so easily trained to take them down. You're confident Gallade could solo him with one arm tied behind his back.

"Of course I've used all my connections to try to catch a glimpse of Keldeo, my absolute favorite Pokemon. No one seems to be willing to share sight of hide nor hair of him, boss!"

You'd get a fan letter from just about everyone in Trillium.

"Yes, it will be important to keep an eye on Kelda if we can find her. She amassed a lot of power before defecting. I'll let you know."

Interesting...well, that knowledge will be put to good use later!

"Probably because somebody knows something about Keldeo's location that they don't want to share, I reckon.  Oh well.  I'm not going to worry about it too much if that's the case.  Not much to find if Keldeo's already been found, after all.  Who knows, though?  Maybe we'll run into Keldeo eventually..."  Nathan shrugs.  He's definitely not gonna worry about it too much.  Mostly because he thinks he has a good idea of who knows more about Keldeo...

-----------------------------------

"Not only that, but she also lost a lot when she defected.  None of the pokemon she had on her person had any reason to Happy or Loyal to her, I imagine.  I doubt that Noivern was going to let her hitch a ride for very long, so...I also want to make sure she didn't get hurt or anything.  I'll start my own search once I've wrapped up some loose ends, presuming she hasn't been located already by that point."

Shiva would easily be able to tell that Nathan cares a likely surprising amount about finding Kelda.  Genuine care, in fact.
