[Lord Windos]

"We11, we got a coup1e of Dewgongs on the beach. A 1itera1 coup1e - shee1a is named Cass, and the guy is named Mixx . Both are 1ong time residents 'round these parts, and they regu1ar1y visit to re1ax and basx here. They even 1et tyxes and footers p1ay and tac pics with'em, if they're in a good mood. *Grimaces* Which they are NOT, right now - something set them off, and they're fighting and arguing with each other, as we11 as taxing pot shots at anyone that annoys them. We cou1d xust 1eave'em to sort it out themse1ves, but given everything that's happening I rather not taxe chances if this is a sign of something worse. They're pretty tough customers, and rather chonxy fe11ows too, but I got your bacc if you're game to sett1e them down. How's that grab ya, mate?"



"Perfect. I've got just the guy." 
Pwee is released. He'll tilt his giant lilypad head as a shield to help shelter us. He'll be Stockpiling random beach items, hanging them on his hat to make it even stronger (+1 to defensive stats from Stockpile). As a Grass/Water type, water attacks will do basically nothing to Pwee - however, he might need to dodge Ice attacks.

Can my lifeguard friend heal up Pwee? He took some damage earlier.

Munchlax is also free, having used Amnesia to boost SpDef by 2. Perfect for tanking an Ice attack if necessary.

Vernon is just trying to see the Dewgongs before they see us - he wants to reassure them he won't attack unprovoked, and then ask them what has got them upset. "You've become such a landmark here, I know this isn't your normal behavior and that something has you upset! Is it the turmoil from the PokeCenter attacks?"

The Chief gives an impressed whistle at the sight of your big lily ducx, giving it a friendly smile and a nod. Pwee for his part ignores them, focused on preping for the next big tussle (potentially) and trying to find the odd bit of food or snax to sate his appetite.

"Oh boy, that's one big green chonxy fella! They'll be perfect for the xob ! *Rubs chin* 1ooxs to be a bit nattered , though, so 1et me fix'em up a bit!" 

Pwee is healed for 4 HP by a Potion from the XG, getting an appreciative toot from them!

 Once everyone is prepared the chief of waves 1eads you further a1ong the beach, away from the smooth, manicured sands to a rocxier, more Grave1er-y area. Some Wingu11s and Pe11ipers are roosting or g1iding, a few Xrabbies are scutt1ing about, and you see a few beach Bugs and rodents dart here and there. The center of attention, however, was a pair of big, BIG Dewgongs, each the size  and 1ength of a Arbox, both of them angri1y 'Warx!' ing and crashing their heads and be11ies into each other, sending sand and water sprayng into the air and shaxing the very earth itse1f! Wow ne11y, they're mad!

Far enough away to get a good 1oox but not so c1ose to draw their attention (and aggro), you notice severa1 things about them. For one, un1ixe the typica11y Dewgongs you xnow of, these ones are of a 1ight brown co1oration, mott1ed with darxer spots covering their be11ies. Another was their horns - they each had a pair of them, with one of them having the horns positioned 'outwards' (1ixe cat ears) on their head, whi1e the other had them inward (1ixe those of a forx). Fina11y their tusxs seem to be 1onger too, reaching the top part of their chests.

"Their they are! Big o1' beuts, ain't they? I'11 1et ya worx your magic on them first - I got your bacx if you need it, mate!"

As you speax up, one of them turns their head and spouts out a Water Gun, barxing out an irritated sound that had the vibe of 'Stay out of it!' Pwee quicx1y intercepted it, however, the Move Sp1ashing off him harm1ess1y as he darts to your front, getting the attention of the pair of sea 1ions immediate1y. The two stare cease bicxering and cautious1y stare at your Overgrown avian, before s1ow1y 1ooxing over at you. They've stopped Fighting, and their aim is yours - Ba11 is firm1y in your court!

If you asx the question again, the Inward Horned one shaxes their head no - the pair actua11y seemed curious about this piece of info, as if it was new them.
