When his cellphone inexplicitly started generating a racket as his furtitive search lead him to the northwestern portion of the Magnetic Carverns, he knew that: A) That Team Plasma's technicians boasts where even more dubious than he thought, and B) He'd found the ideal location for Ramiel and Shiva's Magnemtie to evolve! Quickly backing away from the spot in order not to tempt the fields to brench his phone's shielding and scramble it completely, he then heralded both the ferromagnetic Pokémon with a wave and a smile!

"Ramiel, Magnemite, I think I've found an ideal spot for your evolution! Come over quickly now!" he told them, in a tone of voice loud enough to catch their attention, but not too loud to cause an unnecessary disturbance. Caves have awfully good accustics, from what he could recall, so no yelling unless you want to piss off all the cave inhabitants!

Heart heard Ventus say that and join with him. "Lets go Typhon! Shiva!" Then they head to the direction of Ventus!

Action: Since Its late here, I put this post to begin the training in that magnetic field Ventus find and let Tynamo train there toegether with their Magnemites. You can consider a training session with the energy production.

If you do an official training session, you'll have less potential wild Encounters. Is that OK?

(Yes. This a awesome opportunity.)

Typhon agrees. He's doing great with two evolved Electric/Steel Pokemon and one magnetic Rock type, in a magnetic field where he has trained before. In fact, during this training session, you think you saw him produce his own electricity for the first time! It was just one little spark from his gland, but that means soon he'll be able to produce what he needs!

3 Insight + 3 Knowledge + 0 Science
(5)(4)(1)(3)(2)(2) Magneton, Ramiel, and Typhon gain 3 XP total from this training session.

He especially likes watching Tri Attack, with each submagnet creating a unique type of energy so he can see the difference.

Heart was kinda happy to see the training have his fruits. He go to Typhon and congrats his little eel! "Great Typhon! I could glimpse a little spark of your energy, but it is a first step of a greater thunder! We are one step ahead for you to evolve little! Whuhuu!" Say Heart happy.

The unidentified beast definitely jives with the qilin concept, with the obvious exception of having spherical feet.
You are certain it's not Raikou or Entei, btw.

Landorus is in Incarnate form. Tornadus is drawn to indicate his shadow Therian form as a possibility.

Spoiler

There's no sign of the old man you met on the Tusk, although Tusk symbology is all over this shrine.

"Yes, interesting...concepts lost to time itself, as expected...the name of this unidentified Beast and its connection to Suicune and the other Winds...no direct hints towards the Earthpower, so it's likely been lost to time for far, far longer than the age of this shrine...but the symbology itself is there, still, however little..."

"...and then there's the Therian forms of the Forces of Nature...yes...Landorus is lacking his cat-like grace, but Tornadus has an ever so slight hint that his more bird-like form, seen only in dreams and mirrors typically from what Fennel and Burnet have turned up, has shown up as an incarnation of the West Wind at some point in the past...interesting...heh heh...Sid would probably get quite the kick out of this...I'll have to tell him next time I see him..."

Nathan is examining this shrine and muttering to himself the entire time everyone else is deeper in the caves, in the magnetic caverns.  Valder will likely end up alerting Nathan that everyone's returned and it's time to move on.  The entire time Nathan's in this cave system, though, he's going to be keeping an eye out for anything that looks like it's of particular historical interest and taking notes whenever he does spot something!  He's got plenty of light sources and writing materials to easily cover that!

(Because I'm too lazy to make it a good and long post, I'll be making this more in summarized points and elaborate there where it feels natural.)


- True Story, Shiva's actually (silently) kinda stunned by how much EXCITEMENT Nathan was radiating, it were warm feelings and by all means she's granting him this delight. She herself though does feel somewhat intimidated by traveling through a mountain, mostly because she never did such a thing before.

- The Sentret watching the group as they stepped into the Mudroom receive a friendly wave from her, seemingly saying 'I won't do anything to you, lil' ones!~' Yena's currently not with her, he's on the PC.

- As for the Worn Stone, given how she's somewhat collecting lucky charms and simply likes them , of course she's amused of the thought of stroking this stone for good luck, even if she doesn't know what 'important battles' there might be soon. This all reminds her on cute Victini though, them embodyment of passionate luck! Felt good to touch/stroke this stone, so smooth~

- Onward to the Magnetic Caverns with Ven and Heart, seeing that Nathan and Valder have their own business to follow as well! Inside, her Almanac is placed in the bin as Shiva would definitely NOT appreciate this device being damaged and/or her pretty good PokemonTetris-Highscore being deleted. Cell stays at her person though, but it's turned off because she's not expecting to have any signal or even stable internet connection within a mountain.

The evolution of the small Steelball -
Mental note, find a nice nickname for it maybe.
Noted.

- that hatched only yesterday night was rather fascinating to see, and as soon as the bright yellow light hinting on an EVOLUTION  has faded and her smol Magnemite was not so smol anymore with to additional tiny Magnemites at the base of the triangle, Shiva couldn't help but to somewhat timidly as it's a Steel Type held together by an incredibly strong magnetic power, but also determined because it's HER selfhatched Pokemon, stroke over the head that was her Magnemite before = at the top of the triangle, all while casting a between the lines proud smile - wondering what she'll feel, a shiver hinting to her new Magneton being a cold and calculating Steely Type or a playful one  'almost like a fairy' like Dagny has described her Excadrill? Frankly though, she had never thought that this would indeed work to perfection, that her tiny hatchling from yesterday was now a slightly bigger First Stage 'Mon..... Aww.

The opening that Heart will train her and Ven's new companion with his Tynamo caused Shiva to thankfully hit hit and pat his right shoulder again, but before she let the Steely Triangle of hers float over to the PUNisher, she caught its attention by tickling the magnets most left, tellint it what she'd like to train. "You doing fine in your new evolved Form, young one? Ahaha... Suprise, the odds were ideal to evolve you so soon. Now though... If I remember by heart, being exposed to this strong magnetic field has also increased your attacking skills a little, how about you show me how you're able to blast sonic waves ( = learning Sonic Boom, 0xp), channel a different type of energy from each of your Magnemite-head ( = learning Tri Attack, 0xp) and cast some electricity, ( = learning Thunder Shock, 0xp)? If you'd like, you can also stay out of your Pokeball as we continue our way."

Next.... on the way back, she indeed halted at the shrine for Landorus, but mostly to compare it with Adundant Shrine, which she already visited once or twice during trips. The signpost pointing in the different directions and telling what will be on their respective way catch her more, and she's pondering what she's personally enjoy to explore and see most...

...turns out to the The Candelabra to the North with a quick curious stop-by at the Gem Mine of Cptn Bridge, quickly followed by 'Dark Shard' to the East. Huuuh, sounds scary... but she has Braixen to enlight her way if needed shall she end up lagging behind or caught of guard by a wild Pokemon - oh, and she's indeed hoping to stumble over a Furrent at some point during passing Mount Sentry to befriend it!~

I'll need a party decision on where to go next! The various tunnels are quite far from each other and no cell service down here. If you split the party, individual members will be truly on their own.

(6)(3)(1) In fact, Shiva's cell phone refuses to turn on at all when she gets out of the cave.

(Mine and Ven's vote is going down the tunnel that will lead us to Cress City, but until then he'll stay within close radius of Shiva/Heart to make sure they don't go wandering off and getting lost! 'Sides that, as I said, he has nothing really to say as he's spending time with Ramiel and enjoy their new power with them!)

(6)(3)(1) In fact, Shiva's cell phone refuses to turn on at all when she gets out of the cave.

Only a black screen greeting her when she out of pure curiosity drew cell was to be expected. H-However, it's not broken, is it?! That thing was somewhat expensive! Now she does feel a tab bit more cut off from the outside as she cannot check the time anymore, and the day and night within a mountain are identical.

Shiva's Magneton, having evolved in Mt. Sentry, feels a little bit playful. It likes to spin its subcomponents around a lot, and to explore. A bit like a Furret!

However, two Magneton are much more akin to each other than two Magnezone. In other words, the location of a Magnezone's evolution has a greater impact on its personality.

Awww! Thank you <3
Now Shiva feels a bit less timid to stroke the shiny surface of her newest steely companion, as long as she won't get hit by playful thundershocks while doing so.

(Heart will stick along with Shiva and Ventus)

"People. Shouldn't wait for Nathan and Valder before we head to our next destination?"
