@Dragonstrike : The move Apsis is going to learn when she gains just a couple more XP points is Poison Fang. An alternative Poison STAB that is much more readily able to be spammed with no Accu Penalty is great, and it has the ever so lovely high chance to Badly Poison anything but Steel/Poison Heal/Immunity Pokémon. The real kicker comes into play when you remember she also has the Necklace of Serenity buffing the Chance Dice Pool of all her attacks, so PF's chance of BP a target goes up from 5 Chance Dice to 7. With a bit of luck, after Apsis neuter's a non-Steel types STR with Acid Spray, she can use Poison Fang to BP her target and just sit comfortably while they wither away and try to break past her great bulk and Vitality! On top of that, its has the potential to be semi Lethal too, since the target will eventually be unable to roll against the Poison Damage, so all it takes is just one nip....

Diabolical, isn't it?

I'm now officialy scared of Apsis. Good thing that Ventus has her under control and would never dare harming his dear friend or either of her Pokemon, right? ...Right?? (I cannot help but to wonder how Apsis will react when those two come together, Windos, as Apsis doesn't enjoy fae lady too close to her Master, if I remember correctly...?)

Man. You are a cruel one Lord Windos (Shadow of War reference)

When Nathan finally manages to calm Orthros down, he recalls everyone (except Kirlia), and heads to the training room while waiting for Shiva.  Kirlia, as usual, practices honing his psychic powers with the assistance of the pearl.  Orthros gets to stretch his legs however he sees fit.

Kirlia pear wasn't steal when came to Star city?

Claydol TRIED to steal it, but Nathan and Ventus stopped the theft, remember?

Kirlia pear wasn't steal when came to Star city?

It was retrieved when Ven and Nathan went 'F*CK THAT!' and made a beeline to get it out of the way of those Vines!

I forget that XD quickly read do that all the times

Ick.

I'll just stick to Nathan's fast and furious strategy for now, thank you very much.

No, I'd rather not have Heart present during that revelation of Orthros please, as this shall be a thing between those two.

We don't know about Valder's opinion on one of the Delta Houndour in Nathan's party yet (lucky you that you're not too deep in this whole things as we seem to be) Besides, @Nylon and @Spiritmon, your people's interest in a crafted Cleanse Tag from Shiva to ward off Ghost Types in areas they're present? (we know they dwell in both the Skull Ruins and Earthstar Forest) Costs me some effort that I'll bring up if there's enough interest and you a bit of cash for the specialy prepares paper ($300), cloth ($600), wood ($900), or metal ($1200) (choose freely). I don't know how Haunter will react to this, Nylon, so I'll leave decisions to you.

 I'm not interested in any of the items, if that's the question. I'm sure Haunter won't like it if it's meant to ward off ghost-types, but Valder won't stop the party from using them,  it wouldn't be right for him to object.

To each their own, as I say! Ven's quite pragmatic and....deliberate when it comes to most Pokémon Battles, so Poison Stall is right up his ally, while Nathan prefers to end engagement quickliy as possible so as to spare him damage and subdue foe quickly. My character weathers attacks and grinds his opponents down, yours make up a storm of attack to obliterate opponents, and both are viable strategies in my book.

@PhantomUnderYourDesk : She doesn't like competing for affection with your character + does not like your Fairy nature and predelection towards Psychic types, but she'll tolerate her if they make her master happy. She also knows what happens to Pokémon that attack humans, so she's not about to make such a foolish mistake anytime soon....at least not without explicit orders from Ventus.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Thank you for the answer, Nylon! I'll make sure to note that somewere later.

I thought she (Apsis) would feel somewhat above Shiva's fairies? Of course, 'feeling above' may come along with 'do not like', so there's that. I hope there won't be too much need to competition as Ventus will hopefully have enough affection to share!~

Why the symbol is on Solomon's crown is K, Nathan's not entirely sure either.

That third message, though...that was easy to translate the missing letters in that context.

To go forward, Kirlia must first go back.

I think the K on Solomon's crown is suppose to represent the word King, as it ties quite nicely to the lore of his namesake. Makes me wonder if he knows his biblical lore as well, now that I think of it...

As for that message....well, its sounds to me like the De-evolution Stone might get some pre-emptive usage before they become a Garvedour. Either that, or it has a LOT of self reflection to do before it can get anywhere on its quest.
