[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

In that case, Ran would still want to loan out Brigid to Rui, because they'd be able to cover for Scizors' Fire weakness and be able to support them and Espeon greatly with their own Fire power + After You. Having three Pokemon at hand for any situation is better than two, too!

"Don't over stress yourself trying to confirm it. If Rui's your name, it is, but if it isn't, we'll find something else to call ya later if ya prefer."

The bristly blacksmith has the decency to look politely apologetic to Sally for saddling her with translation duties again, but considering the new threat they just face, getting as much intel on it was more important than not pestering her about it.

"....*Sighs* Yeap, not a good bunch period. Both the Shadow Pokemon and the utterly depraved bastard that made'm. And where's there a few, there're probably a few dozen more loitering and lurking within and around Mt. Coronet. *Sighs* Well, at least we can rid them of their darkness by beating it out of them, so I guess it won't be too hard taking care of them - provided they don't do the job first to us."

Of course, this leaves Ran curious about the matter of Catching a Shadow Pokemon before they're Fainted. Would they be 'purified' by the act, or would they still remain Shadowized? Hmm....

Ran's asked all the questions he wants of both Rui and Espeon for now, so he's ready to head for the Stair and to the next Floor of Mt. Coronet. It's probably chock full of danger like this one was, but he and everyone else will make it. Hopefully.

Rui hesitantly accept's Brigid's pokeball.  "...okay, well, if you're sure...I'm not confident I really know how to handle them, but...I'll try...Rui's fine, by the way.  It's not like I have any other ideas right now...ahahaha...ha..."

On that note, Espeon looks at Sally again.  Espeon's actually not sure why they were purified by beating them.  Normally, Wes would have to spend some time with the Shadow Pokemon to get them to reopen their hearts, and the final lock could only be undone with the aid of Celebi's power.  He's not going to complain if purifying Shadow Pokemon is easier than normal, but...he certainly finds it odd...something definitely seems...different about these Shadow Pokemon compared to the ones he's used to seeing.

Seems like everyone in the first group is ready to move on to Floor 2!  Just waiting on Team K to finish the Milotic encounter.
