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

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Alright! With your/your chara's permission (Since Marco is Nathan's father), I could have Terra capture Marco, make a quick trade between our chara's Pokemon (With Solomon most likely, since they're smart enough to understand why the Trade is taking place and not lose Loyalty), shove Marco through the Capture Net to de-register him from the Ball (if he's unconsicous after being Evolved), then release him from that and revive with a Hurtloam (Terra has one) and see if he's regained his old self's memories. If you can't Evolve a Fainted Pokemon, then Hurtloam them first before the trade. In that case, if they have their memories after being Alakazamed, then they can consent to being Captured Net Released, and if not, they stay in the Ball until we find a way to restore their humanity, however much we can in whatever way we find.

Sounds good to me too, but we may not be able to safely tell whether Marcodabra has regained some of his memories as a human - this is a valid fear I'm having, which is why I suggested to let Helios meet them at some point for some inner-species discussion; Helios himself would then 'translate' to Shiva and she making the point clear to the others if they don't understand themselves.

The problem with that is that I don't think Shiva has Helios in her party now, which emandates making a trip back to Cress/Stair in order to do an identity/memory check that way (and therefore eating up quite a bit of time). 

However, I don't think we need Helios to safely determine if Marc/Marco regained his memoreis. If he does, he'll likely be non-hostile to humans and have a most positive/startled reaction to seeing Nathan/his Pokemon. If he doesn't, then the group has all their Pokemon out and primed to put them down, which is quite a deterant for acting naughty. Since he'll be Revived upon Evolving, then he can also be recalled right away if he acts hostile/uncooperative, which adds pretty much the ultimate layer of safety since he'll be too weak to resist the capture beam (bar shenanigans). Furthermore, since Shiva is Super Insightful and Empathetic, I doubt she needs Helios to determine if Marco is Marco again, and Gallade/the other Psychic can detect human thought patterns on inspection, so we're pretty covered on the whole identification front.

Of course, this all hinges on whether or not Nathan/Dragonstrike wants to Capture and/or Evolve Marco Kadabra. Well, mate?

Yes, you're right, Helios isn't in my party at the moment, so any inner-species 'check for human memories' would have to happen once we're back from the Ruins = probably way too late. It's still an option I'll keep somewhere as a possibility shall Marco's Pokemon, he himself, all the Psychic Types and Shiva herself fail to determine how things have changed for him after having evolved into a smart Alakazam.

I had a idea: One of the things about Earthpower speciality, it's the ability to dispell curses like the Move Forest Curse in lvl 5. If I get that level of Earthpower, I might be able to break the transformation curse.

A bit off Topic, but is anyone had see the last trailer of Sword in Shield? We had Mega Evolution in Gen 6. We had Z-Moves in Gen 7. Now...we have Dynamax.

I saw it.  Looks interesting, though it still hasn't quite matched the hype of Mega Evolution from what I've seen so far.  The new pokemon are looking great so far, too.

Sill excited for when the games release on 11/15!

Kinda mentioned this earlier, but eh.

How much Earthpower and exp does Heart currently have?

4 in Earthpower and 27 XP. I could level up my Earthpower once more.

Oh dang, you totally can.

Well then, I guess we can try that first before we do anything else?

Even if it doesn't work, having someone who can literally remove Curses in a place infested by Ghosts and other supernatural effects is beyond valuable.
