[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Lord Windos]

Question: If Shiva doesn't catch Miltank and she Faints them, can someone else catch them instead so that the group has a Milk Drink Pokemon with some character? The cow was rather noticable to the whole group, so it being Fainted and Shiva leaving it alone could open it up for capture by others (unless Phantom wants to bid XP to prevent others from catching it, if for some reason she wants to do that....) I'd rather not totally forsake relatively free/cheap healing, even if I'm not too thrilled with actually owning it and letting them take up future party slots of Terra's if he's the one that ends up getting them in that scenario.

Nope, I don't want to bid XP on who would end up tossing Balls at it, but I actually don't want the Miltank to take a Party Slot of mine either on long quests that I could use for other Pokemon I've bonded more with when we're having several Pokemon that could cast Heal Pulse already - Gallade, Nathan's Ditto, Gustav, my Dittumbreon technically. Whoever wants to catch the cow for themselves can do so, Shiva won't object but would at least expect some spoken honest ThankYou for defeating it. She'd also be a little wary of the cow and whoever obtains it as it attempted to attack her as a perfect target. I'm having Tropius for free fruit, milk would go fine with these though.

Goodnight for now, I'm having an appointment at a doctor tomorrow so I'll probably be a little late.

Got myself a new laptop last night. The old one's keyboard has been acting really funny lately :/ Well, it's been doing that for awhile, but recently, it got to the point where it was barely tolerable at best. It was continually dimming my laptop's brightness/spamming page up. Not only could I barely see the screen in dimmer lighting, it was near impossible to scroll through web pages too.

Yeah, I'd had enough of that. In the process of transferring a bunch of files over to the new laptop now. Also partially because I'm afraid that one of these days, I'd turn on the old laptop and it wouldn't boot properly because its boot up sequence is starting to take longer and longer and require weird button presses to actually finish the boot up process.

Lesson learned: don't even spill a single drop of soup on a keyboard. (I'm sure that's not the only reason since the old laptop is a few years old, but it was likely the last straw)

Not ever eat with a laptop or PC with one is what I do! D: It only makes things messy.

Hmm, there is a chance of that Kecleon be a overgrown one. Thats gonna be good. Also @Iron, I have a question: How much XP would cost to change Kecleon ability Color Change to Protean? It might be cheap since its Kecleon hidden ability. And only 4 Pokemon have that ability: Kecleon and Greninja evolution line. Hmm...I think I have a idea of what kind of pokemon to choose in Dragonstrike roleplay. I choose a Grass-Starter in Celadon City campaigh and a Fire-Starter in Skull Ruins. So why not a Water-type? Squirtle, Tododile, Mudkip, Piplup, Oshawot, Froakie or Popplio...argh the old great question.

Doesn't necessarily have to be fire/water/grass.  Doesn't even have to necessarily be a traditional starter pokemon.  I started with Ralts in this campaign, for example.

Well, even if its not necessary, I like be traditional. And I think its something awesome choose a starter pokemon to be, in theory, the most powerfull pokemon in the team. Or at least the main member. Call me traditional, but I think its something cool I like to do.

30XP base to change to a Hidden Ability.

With that said, the mountain of a man offers the Fighting doggie a lift on his shoulder (after making sure no leftover pee was going to drip on him!), and they explore/view the Route for a bit before heading back to the group. During that time, Terra was pointing out interesting natural sights/plants and explaining what they were/could be with his High Survival/Moderate Nature, while they (Anubi) were probably half paying attention, and half focusing on using their partner's body as a mobile playground of sorts, or looking for another more challenging Pokemon to fully quench his thirst for Fighting!

Aw, that's a scene I would draw if I was artistic.

I'm not very good at drawing man in a chiseled and tough build like Terra. :C
But maybe I should sketch a few Flygon.

Kecleon needs a Poison resist check at the end of Round 2, @Iron.
