[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Mikaruge108]

Spira checks up on the fainted Chandelure first things first. Considering that it didn't have a chance to show any hostility, (if possible) attempts a medicine roll-based revive (also on Noire if it is possible), if that don't work, off to his PC it goes, one retro-Pokeball will be used.

Shiva's Survival: (3)(6)(6)
*rolls*
You find a Blue Apricorn and a Ra's Rose, a very valuable, gorgeous flowering plant worth $3500 each (and you have two cuttings of it, so 7k total). This rose needs a lot of sunlight to bloom, but if kept in relative darkness, it will instead grow a rainbow of thick shimmering thorns. No one has seen the blossom in hundreds of years, but it's supposed to bloom in every color of the sunset.

Terra and Shiva both get bonus finds in there.

Terra: Archenbit. It's a little groundcover plant, and you find two units. Each unit can be fed to a Pokemon to create an Assault Vest Ability/effect - +2 Defense, but can only use attacking moves.

Shiva: Anubis Aubergine. This plant's fruit transforms any Pokemon into the Grass Egg Group for a few days. You manage to collect some seeds and one fruit.

That's not possible, but you find that it has no lethal wounds and will recover in the PC. 

Pokeball: (4)(5)
Will: (1)(2)(1)(6)

You weren't the one to deal damage to it, so it will keep its loyalty and happiness.

Gotcha! Chandelure was caught!
2/2/4
Flame Body
It has all the 0XP moves from all its stages, and Shadow Ball, and Trick.

[Iron]

If you participated in this fight, your share of the XP is 12.

Aaaaaaahhhhhhh what beautiful and useful plants, Shiva's mood instantly increases as she carefully and mindfully packs her findings away, thankfully for Mother Nature being so generous again. She chuckles joyfully to herself as she imagines her sunbringer's and fluffball's joy in caring for this rose together to eventually bring it to bloom. Aww!~

Uh, according to Shiva Arachnautilus can faint and defeat as many wild Pokemon as she wants, as long as she doesn't go for allies or intends to deal lethal wounds - in that cases she'll immediately chip in by forcing her to calm down with Raphael's aid. If that won't help, she'll order Yena to pull her away from her foes.

She also mentioned 'broken glass' laying around here. That's curious, Shiva will try to find out what kind of glass that is (normal glass used for windows and stuch or anything extraordinairy) and where these shards belong to. Is something broken nearby?

The shards are everywhere, like a massive amount of glass was broken. It's clear glass. The only thing notable about it is that it's the old style of glass, when molten windows were spun into great wheels before being cut into square panels.

Heart simple wave his hand, without much energy left to fight. "I don't know about you people, but I open for a good well put rest." Heart look to both Shiva and Terra. "Well, I would appreciate a little help back there. We were almost overwhelmed by those Kadabra back there. And also against those Unow too. For a minute I thought they could summon another legend."

Heart make a disappointed face, but then he release a sight. "Argh, let's just get out of here. I a guy who like battles, but even I have my limits. Terra, you cook today. And act as sentinel today."

Heart doesn't have much to say about Arachna transformation. After everything he see in his travels, there is not to much capable of surprise him.

Also, he decided to take a look in those Unow.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Noooooo, Shiva would like to be the sentinent tonight!!! (>o<) She'll kindly insist on doing so to make up for the others that she let them fight alone.

And Spira's good at cooking, so Shiva would want her senpai to do that if he's up for it. (She'll watch with lots of interest.)

Oh yeah, Nathan would definitely send both Charizard and Gallade to make sure Arachnautilus doesn't overdo it (and also partially as added protection if needed, though it's mostly the latter reason instead of the former).

And concerning that response to Phantom's question...is there anything in the Chamber that actually spells out Marco Warren?

Hmmmm...Reflect didn't actually do anything in that battle, but is Solosis eligible for a share of the 12 exp?

Also, for the record since Mika hasn't mentioned it yet...does Luna get another spirit collecting roll after that battle?

-------------------------------------------------

Nathan's definitely a little winded at this point.  Even Calam is starting to look a little tired, and he's probably the one who's most used to pushing his limits and staying up late out of everyone here.  Nothing that a good night's sleep can't fix, at least.  Charizard's glaring at those Unown, even as he breathes heavily from exhaustion.  How DARE they try to stifle his fire!  They got what was coming to them!  The OG dragon then gives Doublade an appreciative nod.  Without that Wide Guard, those Unown very well might have doused his flames.

Nathan takes one look at Arachnautilus after the battles over and says, "...nice Shell Smash...not gonna lie, though...that's terrifying to look at and listen to.  And I thought Kelda's Bonemerang was disturbing..."

Nathan had braced himself when Feraligatr came charging out of that capture web.  The gator was always one of Marco's more...aggressive pokemon (4 Disobedience, yo).  Without Marco around, yeah, Feraligatr was pretty dang likely to use a Lethal Crunch against his captors...

Marco's Female Meowstic, however, is typically rather confident, sassy, and particular about her appearance.  The fact that she's so unkempt and careful right now says a lot about what she and the others must have been through the past 3 years...

Skarmory is Marco's main regional transportation.  If he needed to get somewhere fast and easily, Skarmory was who he called upon for help, and the typically jolly bird was more than happy to oblige because he simply loves to Fly and carry people and packages and whatnot around.  Mallorn's probably been a little envious of Marco having such a dedicated and hard worker when it comes to transportation.

And then there's Luxray, Marco's closest companion and overprotective friend.  Those who want to defeat Marco in battle or cause him harm have to go through Luxray first.

Well, they succeeded at doing just that this time, apparently. Still no sign of the trainer himself yet, though...that could be either a good or bad sign...

Nathan latches on to Luxray when he bounds up out of those tunnels with a big ol' hug.  "...oh man, it's so good to finally see you and everyone else again..."  He lets go rather quickly and gives his dad's closest companion a rather serious look, though.  "...where are dad, Machamp, and Piloswine, though, Luxray?  Are they not here?"

Nathan finds it VERY odd that only four of his dad's six missing pokemon were in this room at first glance.  Hmmm...

The Chamber is clear! Arachnautilus storms into the third and final chamber and, cackling, knocks the few stragglers there out too, and returns with them bound in her eldritch limbs.

"Buncha plants in there, took over just about the whole room. There's some broken glass too, lots of it, but if we're careful that could be a good place to rest."

Cosh radios to Terra to update him.

Luxray jumps up from where he was blown.

With the battles in the KCs over, the threats n it mostly neutralized, and his master magician of a partner giving him a general update/his own report on the place, Terra at last decides to return to the place and rejoins the group, with Angie floating and side weaving in the air behind/above him and Oinari perched on his shoulders. He doesn't do anything but nods to his friends/The Scimitars, and its quite clear to those that are particularly Insightful/Alert that the rugged wander is beyond tense, wary to the point of paranoia about his surrounding, and just plain afraid, but is otherwise keeping a very cool/stoic front and tough as Steel composure. The Kadabra Chambers freak him out to his core, but he mustn't allow his fear/reservations of the place to cripple him and his friends too much (If at all, ideally).

Regarding the Archenbit, Terra offers both units to the anyone in the group that will take them, quietly stating he with a small frown and downward tilted head that he doesn't deserve anything from the KCs right now, and that these could be put to better use by everyone else instead. If no one takes them/only takes one, he'll store the remainder for later.

The sagely monk at first does not respond verbally respond to his collector friend's pointed/disappoint, averting his gaze from them and nodding his head at their suggestion for him to cook dinner (Something he could do quite easily and well, now; he'll make a simple but rich stew for everyone now, in order to save up on rations). Just as he was about to leave to began preparation, however, he does have this to say: "......Have my reasons for staying away, Heart. That is all."

If nobody else has anything to say/interact with my chara, he's ready to make dinner and then rest for the night!
