[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

Furret likes the way Nathan says 'Rhea' and accepts the nickname.

"It's settled then.  Rhea it is.  Now then, let's get the party rearranged a little..."

Back at the Center, Nathan swaps his pokemon around.  Both Combee get deposited, and taking their place are Rhea and Ditto.

Now that Nathan doesn't have to worry about leaving Rhea behind, it's time for some action!  As much as he likes Cress, he's been eagerly awaiting a chance to get a good battle in.  So it's off to Stair he goes via Ralts's Teleport to find a 4v4 Double for $600 (no fainting preferred).  First two pokemon will be Charmeleon and Rhea (assuming she's fine with demonstrating a little of what she can do in battle, that is)

(Its times like this I would like to have a Teleport pokemon  )

Heart then look again to Shiva when she pat his shoulder. He give her a smile than touch her hand. "Thank you again Shiva. For help me and Viktor go another step. I still owe you a lot my friend." Then Heart and Viktor make a bow of respect to Shiva. Even evolve, they still very much sync. "Now problemo, tomorrow we will be ready to go to Mt. Sentry. I even have something to help in our journey. A Onix I have recently receive. He still....a little disobedient, but me and Nathan we working on a backup plan. Also a quick question: The leafs of a Phantump change his cure properties when he evolve to a Trevenant? Just curious."

Eeeek! Out of suprise, Shiva mildly flinched away from Heart touching her by the hand - that's a privilege not many people get and have! But she let's him get away with it this time, knowing that this was a special moment for him. Evolution of a dear Pokemon was always a special thing, naturally. Aww... That bow she received made her fail fighting that blush.

How somewhat relieving that Heart changed the topic then, more appreciation and thanks could easily make her either get very flustered and allure questions from Ven later about her state, or at worst best earn Heart a very quick hug. "Oh... an Onix? Neat. Please...take good care of it... It'll probably be indeed useful down that mountain." .... "Oh, nope, these leaves are from a Phantump and stay like that, they're independant of Viktor's evolution. Though the alternative practitioner I usually visit once told me that only a Phantump's leaves can be made into almost wonderous medicine if brewing them, then carefully boiling down the liquid over a the period of a day. I'll see what can be made... Maybe - hopefully - Ven can help me on this."


As soon as Heart was away, Shiva does one small thing before she'll continue with her business: Drawing her Almanac and see what it says about Phantump and Trevenant. Have Almanac made research on these Pokemon, what about the myth of Phantump being a child's spirit possessing a stump and the lore about medicine from its leaves from the organisation's scientific view?

Trevenant is kind to those he cares about. He returns the hug in prickly fashion.

Pokedex doesn't describe any benefits for Trevenant leaves, but Trevenant will be able to exert limited control over trees now!

"I know you can do it. You the most smart person in the group. I know you can do it. You was able to figure out how to summon a Primal Altaria, and able to take us to the End of the Earth. I know you can do that." Heart give Shiva a confident smile and a positive finger. "Now, I sorry to say goodbye, but me and Viktor have some things to do. We want to give a try in the Ceremony and see what we can do. That will be a good test. See you later." Then Heart give Shiva goodbye and go with Viktor to the exit of the pokemon Center. Lets see what kind of battle today might have....

Mechanic: Go with Trevenant to the Ceremony and test the big guy in battle! Lets see what this bad tree can do!

"Aight, let's get this battle started! The name's Edgewalker. I go around things, not through them. No fainting? Sure!"

He sends out a Glalie (1) and a Krokorok (4) +3 Dex + 4 survival = 11.
Furret and Charmeleon both roll (2)

Krokorok 11
Furret 9
Charmeleon 9
Glalie 8

Phantump
The Panacea Pokemon. Most useful for its ability to phase through matter, Phantump also possesses leaves that, when combined with the somewhat rare Kobra-tongue Fern, creates a cure all more powerful than a Full Heal. A mere tea of the leaves is quite similar to a Full Heal. Unfortunately, these leaves are slow to bud. The first time they were plucked, they took two weeks to grow back to usable size. Plucked immediately, they then took almost three weeks to grow. This pattern continued, topping out at about six weeks.

Trevenant
The Tree Shepherd Pokemon. Though very disobedient and prideful, a controlled Trevenant is able to root itself in a forest and slowly rearrange the trees within. This power seems stronger at night. Threats of fire were sufficient to force a half-tame Trevenant to clear off a construction site in a single night.

ヽ(°〇°)ﾉ After reading that, Shiva sets a new goal for herself: Find some of that rare Kobra-tongue Fern. (Alongside more petals of the Gracidea Flower of course) How amusing, that name reminds her a bit on Apsis, and a cold shiver ran through her body at the thought of that snake.

Furret and Charmeleon both roll (2)

"Alright Charmeleon, it's time!  Show me what ya got!  Let's see how strong that fire of yours is!  Do try not to burn them too badly though, and don't purposely faint them, alright?  Rhea, I hope you're ready to help him out with that Krokorok!  ...Rhea?  Rhea?"

Rhea's spacing out a little since she's using Amnesia!

Amnesia
Accuracy: 4 Dex + 3 Survival + 0 Alert - 3 Actions = 4 D6
Effect: +2 Defense!

...and then acting as a diversion!

Follow Me!
Accuracy: 4 Dex + 3 Fight + 2 Perform - 4 Actions = 5 D6
Effect: +5 Priority.  All single target moves from the opposition will target Rhea for the rest of the round.

Quick Attack on Krokorok first
Accuracy: 4 Dex + 3 Fight + 3 Brawl - 5 Actions = 5 D6
Damage: 2 Power + 3 Str + STAB = 6 D6 base
Effect: +1 Priority!

Yup, that oughta show Nathan how she handles a battle!  Carmeleon, meanwhile...

Fire Fang x3 on Krokorok first
Accuracy: 10 base - 1 accuracy - 3/4/5 actions = 6/5/4 D6
Damage: 6 D6 base
Effect: 2 Chance Dice each for both Flinch and Burn 1
