[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

Marco: "Then it sounds like I'm going for that Fly HM. Don't worry, just a quick in and out. If I see danger, I'll FLY away again. What if we compromise on leaving after a good night's rest?"

This sounds like something Shiva can and will agree on. She'll stay at the Pokemon Center she's just been if she can for just the night, and she makes sure to grab some free angelfood cake from the makeshift cafeteria for dinner. ଘ(੭*'v'ˋ)੭.｡.:*☆

How reasonable would it be if Shiva would pay the Sacred Grove of Primal Lurantis a visit now = before rest? Not really as she had to teleport to Elanor/Teazel Valley for that, right? Then she'll do so once departing.

You easily find someone who will give you Dark Pulse for Machamp.

Holy crap...I check my PC and...No Machamp found. Guess I wasnt able to capture. Is the guy accept a Hitmontop with Intimidate ability?

[Spiritmon]

Along with the trade for Dark Pulse, Heart buy a few important items: 

10x Hyper Potion
10x Full Restore
5x Revive
20x Ultra Ball

He winks back and assumes a gruff voice.

"Hello, Martha Warner. This is Dave with Shaymin U. We're calling all alumni looking for donations, how much can I put you down for?"

There's silence for a long moment on the other end of the phone. You hear a sob as your mother's voice catches.

"...M...Marco?"



Skarmory appears in a flash and your dad turns his face away from Nathan and mounts up. He hovers just out of earshot, still facing away. Occasionally, a drop of water somehow falls from Skarmory.

Nathan shakes his head, yet there's a smile on his face.  Always trying to act so tough...still, his parents do deserve a little time to talk privately after three years.  He is curious what the story behind Marco's choice of greeting might be, but that can be asked about later.  However, Nathan will make sure to say one thing loud enough for his dad to hear.

"Dad, if you get too far away from Dedenne, the connection might get a little spotty again!"

Other than that, he patiently waits to get his pokedex back while his parents are conversing.

Jerry Sensen:
"I earned me Keystone by setting up a powerful scouting system of Bugs throughout Creshire. It's still in place to this day, helping the police, the League, you name it. Only problem is, Deoxys keeps takin' me bugs." (...)

Oi, that catches Shiva's interest nicely as she moves a little closer to Jerry to inquire more about that. "Is that so...? How neat! But that scouting system operates in secret, doesn't it? Since I never seen any bugs around that behaved oddly or differently than any wild Bug Types, you see. Still, that's a cool achievement!~"

"*cough* Could you please teach my Pangoro here how to make foes attack solely him and leave allies alone? He's so big and scary, I'd like to see the opponent who is bold enough to challenge him on free will." She hesitates a little, then smiles and gives off a waving hand-gesture. "Oh no, he's obediant to me, he won't cause problems unless I allow him to do or you enrage him." (*^v^)

1500$Poke change hands, we can assume that Pangoro taunts the foe when using tis move as I find it hard to imagine a creature like him releasing powder. Shiva eagerly watches how Jerry tutors, I lack just a few XP to get her the final level-up on that skill this moment though. >_<;

Furthermore, Shiva's restocking on supplies in order to prepare for the departure. First she liquidates every loot she collected that serves no other use than to be sold for a good price EXCEPT her share gotten from the sunken ship (kept as emergency loot to sell for now), here's what she buys after that:

- 7 Max Potions for 2.500$ each, 17.500$ in total
- 7 Revives for 1.500$ each, 10.500$ in total
- 4 Antidotes for 100$ each, 400$ in total
- 2 Burn Heal for 250$ each, 500$ in total
- 4 Paralyze Heal for 200$ each, 800$ in total
- 2 Ice Heal for 250$ each, 500$ in total

----> This makes exactly 32.000$ as the final cost if calculating in the cash to pay Jerry, using up almost everything of the gain gotten from selling her share of the loot from King Sarimanok's Palace. The remains she keeps as raw cash.

----> Alongside some orchids and general healing supplies Shiva still has and the six free Super Potions, this gives her access to 7 Max Potions to heal up plotdevice'd damage and 9 Revives to quickly patch up fallen foes, together with the Shield she feels this should suffice to stay on the safe side of things, back to noming angel cake.

EDIT, while Shiva's on it, she can just as well restock on Gourmet Food - 10 packages for 500$ in total - and get another Tea from the relocated Violet Tent for 500$.

Oh that's right. I was thinking a Hitmontop will be less valuable. But on the other hand, they only have 1 disobedience, so they are actually a lot better. And you still have one to spare!
Someone will trade Dark Pulse for one Hitmontop.

Jerry teaches Pangoro how to shake a Ragepowder from his little bamboo sprout while taunting. The skill of these ultimate move tutors is amazing. Jerry can, in the course of an hour, teach several Pokemon their moves by releasing dozens of Bug Pokemon at them in quick succession, so they're forced to learn the new move quickly or be overwhelmed.

(don't worry about the time it takes, that won't count against you in any way)

Marco flies back down after a bit, his face perfectly dry.

"I'm off to see your mother. You can spend the night at the farmhouse, right? Gallade can get you there?" He hands back the Pokedex.
