[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

...hmmm...a Scimitar logo...

"...maybe this is where they captured some of the Solosis they had..."

...

"...in any case, I still need to catch 5 of those Undersized Unown.  Still have that Claw Fossil to revive.  Let's gather the TMs and stuff, capture those Unown, and then we'll be finished here."

Nathan starts examining the Unown on the wall.  Are they spelling anything particularly interesting?  Are there any five letter words that don't look like a part of any particular message?

They seem to be spelling a wide-variety of Pokemon-related things like "Bug" and "Fire Punch" and "Plus" and "Paintbrush." The letters get smaller and smaller near the end of each word. They pretty much coat the entire wall in between the murals, and there doesn't seem to be a real pattern to their placement (for example, there aren't any bug-types who learn Fire Punch to my knowledge, yet those are spelled out right next to each other). 

All the words appear to be of this format.

Alright, so is there a group of Unown spelling the word "Fairy"?  (It's a five letter, pokemon related word with no repeat letters)

Yep. Takes some hunting to find it amid all the tiny words, though, so I'm thinking Shiva is nearly completing the puzzle right now and Heart/Terra have moved to engage the Unown. Sound good to everyone?

[Lord Windos]

(Sounds good to me , mate! )

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Sound good to everyone?

(Yes it does, I'm so curious to see what that puzzle can tell/show me once completed :o )

Yup yup, sounds good!

It's indeed an Eevee, designed to have a little touch of Jolteon and Flareon about it, and all done in that minimalist Mamo style. The oddest thing about it is the smoothness of its facial features, and its tail is almost like a single Espeon tail. Shiva thinks this drawing is going for the impression of an Eevee mid-mutation/evolution, perhaps demonstrating its unstable genetic code.

Nothing changes about the cave when the puzzle is completed.

(Nathan finds F.A.I.R.Y on the wall at this point. It's near a quiet living Solosis).

Terra orders Paralysis and Spore on an Unown at random. Trevenant uses Confuse Ray. It can hardly miss, and all the attacks land, (3) one on each of three different Unown, who are left behind floating in midair. *rolls* An A, a G, and another A. The stream of Unown, however, keeps traveling, swarming up to the ceiling and hovering there angrily, glowing with psychic power!

HIDDEN POWER 1
(4)(2)(1)(3)(6)(5) (1)(5)
CD: (4)

A blast of core celestial power flows between the Unown as they whirl in two whirlwinds, orbiting each other. It splashes not against Terra, or Heart, or their Pokemon, but against one of the mixed up murals on the wall. It glows pink, and another Ditto coalesces from it. Right away, it takes the shape of Manectric!

HIDDEN POWER 2
(3)(2)(5)(1)(3)(5) (6)
CD: (3)

Another demonstration of power, and a stony Tyrantrum leans through yet another mural and roars a roar to shake the cavern! The Meowth vanish into a tiny crack. The Umbreon and Eevee in the cavemouth run off, carrying their berry and fluff.

Moving to combat time!

Heart was ready to vanish those foes! To help Viktor in that fight, Heart bring his Ambipom! He is determined to capture that Tyrantrum! After all, its not everyday you found a ancient pokemon? "Shiva! Nathan! You two take care of those Unow! Me and Terra will take care of that Tyrantrum and Ditto!" Heart then looks to Terra/@Lord Windos and smile. "Ready to fight side by side again Terra? Lets show that dinosaur why he should stay extinct! And that dog who is the Alphas here." Heart smash one punch to another, more than eager to fight.

(Waiting initials @Iron)

"...yup, that's why you don't anger large groups of Unown.  Welp, here we go!  Hope you're both ready, Grid and Ray!  We've got some Ditto to KO and Unown to capture!"

Battle time!  Time for some debilitating effects and powerful attacks!

(Uh, shouldnt better Shiva and Nathan focus in attack those Unow and Heart and Terra focus in attack Ditto and Manetric? Those Unow will continue to bring allies and will never end. Just a though)
