[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

Best be prepared for your partners to go through the meat grinder, even if you are prepared out the wazoo and have Fighters tougher than Steel. Better yet, have Full Restores and Max Revives at the ready - the later can even be used as a Held Item by Mons if you teach them right, though in most proper Battles that's Illegal. In Hunts or in the Wilds, though...well, go wild! I can teach you and your friends how, though it'd probably be best I show everyone going on the Hunt all at once than trying to daisychain the teaching."

...

"Yeap, it is. If you're looking for another Team Member that's capable of tangoing with one of them nasties on short notice....well, I can try scrounging up lead on that. Least I can do for someone willing to put their life on the line and after the horror show Nyan put you through. In the mean time I suggest poking around the Resident Distinct, The Ports, or the Military District - perhaps you can find some sellers of powerful and nice enough Mons for the task, though they won't come cheap, especially if you get one that is Trained for Hunting or Military Action. The Bounty Offices offices round the city might also have some choice critters on offer too, either by request or in stock, though they'd likely be rather unruly if they're recent Catches. The Government and Military District Offices usually has the 'best' , but getting them without a lot of red tape and Poke is Tough, even if you bring in a good 'nuff reason for trying to get one. Luckily for you the Afterlife is one such 'unofficial' *Finger Quotes* Bounty dive and hangout - perhaps you or your friends will have good Fortune in rustling something up! Between me vouching for ya and after last night you pretty much got a free pass to come and go as you please, though it you bring anyone it's on your head to make sure they don't make a mess of things - or at least make ones that'll earn you some laughs and jeers from the regulars. Got all that, sheela?"

...

Off to the side Rabsca and Ceruledge are just minding their business, though both are giving the Dandy Man rather analytical looks for differing degree. Your sand roller appears frustrated, however - they can't seem to get a good read on them, despite their own talents in that area. Ceruledge...well, you already know how she feels about him.

Seddi nods thoughtfully at Dodger's suggestion to teach everyone how their pokemon can use Max Revives in a pinch.  "Sounds like a solid plan, and even more reason to ensure everyone is gathered tomorrow night."

He also listens carefully to what Dodger is saying about the Afterlife club to Oz.  Definitely sounds like a place worth checkin' out when he gets some time to do so.  He'll have to coordinate that with Oz at a later date it sounds like.

If Dodger is going to be looking for pokemon for Oz though...

"Mind if I make a suggestion about something specific to keep an eye out for, Dodger?  Given we'll be facing a Ghost type, a pokemon with Foresight; Odor Sleuth; or Soak would be particularly potent when paired with some of my pokemon.  Especially Soak.  Have a few aces up my sleeve that unfortunately just don't work against Ghosts, so I'll probably be doin' a little diggin' for a critter with one of those moves myself."

Seddi gives Ceruledge and Rabsca a glance to check up on them and what they think.  Ceruledge still looking baffled and wary is to be expected of course.  Rabsca looking genuinely frustrated though gets a brief eyebrow raise from Seddi.  Ceruledge not being able to get a read on someone is one thing.  The Psychic bug being unable to do so?  Hmmmm...
