[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

"Breeding isn't something I have much knowledge in, but when I do breed Pokemon, I use rare or unusual Pokemon like fossils. Some take to it rapidly, others require special items or environments that are hard to get at a Daycare or similar." He teaches you a Destiny Knot that you can tie for free to increase the odds of Rock types breeding, including deltas.

He'll take you up on a future conversation about Orthros. His only advice there is that a Pokemon who frequently Mega Evolves is considered extra fit by potential partners.

Usually breeds rare and unusual pokemon, huh?  Then Nathan has another question for Mason.  He'll show Mason the various eggs he found deep in the Skull Ruins.  "Got any guesses what these eggs might hatch into?  My pokedex is clueless.  Best I can tell, the parents were an Aerodactyl that looked like it was revived with FTS techniques and a Charizard that...looks like it's seen better days, to put it lightly.  Quite the unusual pairing since those species can't breed with each other normally."

As for the Destiny Knot, Nathan actually has a related question after being shown the Rock knot.  "...so tight it's as hard as a rock...how'd you learn how to tie this destiny knot?  Maybe I can figure out how to tie one for Fire or Psychic types..."

"This is actually my invention. However, we do have an aide at the university who calls herself Arachne who specializes in all kinds of knots. Not all of them are for breeding, either!"

"Ahhhh, the FTS. So many mysteries still surround them...mysteries that won't be solved until the final layers of the Skull Ruins are laid bare before us. I think what we have here is a very strange Delta Egg with some ghostly energy around it. This other Egg looks nonviable. And this one...hm, well, I can tell you it's a complement to the other one. It's likely they each received a unique combination of the parents' energies. Such creatures are not always hatchable. We don't have any way to increase the likelihood of these strange recombinant Eggs - we don't even have a word for it. They defy all other genetic science! But maybe the FTS did. I wonder if it was ethical..."

"As for hatching them, that's very difficult for me to say. I'm not sure you'd like what you found, either. You may need to consult an expert on unique Pokemon Eggs - someone with more knowledge than anyone here at the University has, I'm sad to say. It's really beyond all our human lore."
