[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Dragonstrike]

Kee directs everyone to dip into the side tunnel to try and hide, the approaching sound getting louder all the while.  Hoopa follows grudgingly.

*chachunk chachunk chachunk chachunk*

Kee readies the Gravelerock to throw as soon as the target comes into view...

...but Hoopa suddenly appears out of a portal in the middle of the corridor right as the wild pokemon (one larger, 4 smaller, all rolling on the rails) arrive and come to a screeching halt on the tracks.  Rather than describe them further, I'll just drop some pictures here.

The Wild Pokemon

"Oh, so you're the ones making all that racket!  Well, so sorry, but my new friends and I are going to have to KO you now to further our combat experience!~  Hehehehehe!"

"What?!  Intruders in our mine?!  Rolycoly, roll out, and find and remove the threats!  The annoying one's mine! Do not let them steal our coal!"

"Yes, Carkol sir!  Alright, everyone, you heard the boss!  Let's get searchin'!"

Stealth: (5)(2)(4) 2 successes
Alert: (4)(6)(1)(1) 1 success

Seeing that the dim lighting from the hot coals on Carkol's back(?) is slightly illuminating the corridor where everyone is hiding, Kee strikes first, throwing his Gravelerock at the leader before the Rolycoly notice where they are!

(4)(2) Carkol takes 1 damage 5/6 HP

"Gah!  Over there!  Get them!"

Hoopa: (6) + 4 = 10
Kogeki: (6) + 3 = 9
Rolycoly A & B: (6) + 3 = 9
Pyra: (6) + 2 = 8
Karen: (6) + 2 = 8
Rolycoly C & D: (5) + 3 = 8
Daxter: (3) + 4 = 7
Marcus: (4) + 3 = 7
Carkol: (2) + 4 = 6
Kee: (1) + 4 = 5

The four Rolycoly are currently blocking the entrance to the side tunnel.  At least one of them will need to be KOed and/or moved before Carkol can be attacked by characters other than Hoopa.
