    You just saw a Magneton fly overhead in the Great Marsh, giving off the mysterious signal that Magnemite perceived from the one in Veilstone City. What do?
    >> Little Blue Book of Babes 01/12/10(Tue)18:55 No.7561249

    Two things happen in rapid succession. Snover, upon hearing the word "kill," reflexively activates Snow Warning, and the rain abruptly changes to hail. This is lucky, as otherwise, the blast of Thunder firing from the Magneton at Magnemite never would have missed.

    All right.
    The Magneton comes down, but before it can Thunder you, the humans toss out their own Pokemon; you can see a Gastrodon and Misdreavus among them. The Magneton pauses, then shoots up into the sky, fleeing; the humans move forward with their Pokemon, looking around.

    You double back, through some trees this time. The sound of your pursuers finally fades, and you make it to the tree line separating the marsh from the city. You sneak through it, running back to Sarina's house, knocking on the door. After a while, Sarina shows up, rubbing her eyes. "Yeah?"

    Eventually, once you get back on the boat and things are more stable, you release Sableye and Seviper, and tell them about what just happened. Sableye looks startled, Seviper looks intense, and both agree with trying to get back to the Team Aqua base as soon as possible, which, after another night's rest, you do. As you disembark in the Lilycove cave, you notice something different; there seems to be a vague movement of Team Aqua members flanking Sarina as she speaks to the Aqua receptionist.

    You do something like that, firing the smokescreen at Sarina while Snover and Magnemite grab her. The move is distracting enough for the Aqua members that they don't grab her before you can take her back to the boat; however, they begin throwing their Poke Balls, and a bunch of Poochyena and Zubat come at you.

    You do. The Smokescreen blocks out your pursuers from there. However, two of the Wailmer-riding patrollers from outside the cove move to intercept you, and two more Zubat fly forth.

    You fire an Ember at the remaining Zubat, while the next turn rolls around. Sableye uses Night Shade on the Wailmer coming in, and Seviper uses Glare, decidedly paralyzing it; the second Wailmer chooses that moment to break through the ice, but by that point, the boat has made it past the enemies and is speeding away.

    Magnemite nods briefly. Snover gives your new form a slightly awed look, then hugs you tightly. Sableye gives you an impressed look as she goes over to tend to Seviper; Sarina is still driving the boat, intent on reaching Pacifidlog. As for Porygon2, it's nowhere to be found.

    Ah, fair enough. I'm a bit tired now, and I admit that I made up the whole sequence about you being chased by Z on the fly. I'll put more thought into it the next time.

    >If you like, I can let you keep all moves you've ever learned.
    That would be incredibly generous, and allow for more creativity in our attacks. It's up to you though.

    >Also, did I put the Charmeleon evolution in a bad place?
    We just survived our first encounter with the BBEG and survived - not only survived but SEVERELY injuring him.

    I think it was well-placed, and I thank you for it.

    My plan was to make this follow the games a bit more closely than the anime (which is why humans can die or be seriously injured by Pokemon attacks), but since I've got Bulbapedia, I can easily keep track of movesets. So yes, you can remember all your moves.

    Alright then.

    You said something about being tired. Would you like to call it quits for tonight? If so, could we discuss a regular schedule for the Quest threads?
    >> Researcher Sam 01/13/10(Wed)00:03 No.7565304

    Wonderful! So what's our next move? Porygon2 is missing and we're wanted by Team Aqua. Aw fuck, that's it for tonight isn't it?

    I'm a bit tired, yes, and since you just evolved, it could be a good place to stop.

    Schedules. I know that you've recommended that I only do this every other day to avoid burnout, and I'm pretty sure that I can keep up a schedule of 1PM EST until whenever I decide to go to bed, allowing for food and other breaks that might show up.
    >> Researcher Sam 01/13/10(Wed)00:09 No.7565369

    So wait. Is that a yes, you'll be doing it every other day and we should expect part 11 on Thursday, or a yes, I think I can do it every day, and we should be looking tomorrow?
    >> Charming Spell !K6Y3jvHRYk 01/13/10(Wed)00:10 No.7565382
    >>7565369
    That's a yes, I'll be doing it every other day. Quest ideas out of the lab are a bit harder to come up with, and I'm curious as to what you're planning now. And you can expect it on Thursday.

    I'm a fan of the 2 Days a Week method. I'm personally available all day every day except for evenings on Wednesdays and Fridays. A Tuesday/Saturday combo would work with me, as it would give you 2-3 days between each session to rest and plan out further parts of the storyline. How does this sound to you?

    Spiffykeen. So, now that this is technically Charmeleon Quest (I don't know if I'll change the name, though), what are your plans?

    If you want, we could do a bit of convo with the others on the boat, then end the thread as we pull into Pacifidlog Harbor.

    Go for it.
    As your evolution finishes itself off, you can feel yourself become far larger and stronger, and... hotter, somehow. Magnemite and Snover have recovered themselves, and are currently watching you, as is Sableye.
    >> Researcher Sam 01/13/10(Wed)00:20 No.7565492
    >>7565448
    I guess we'll try to get stronger until we can take down the grandmaster. I mean, Porygon-Z.
    >> helpful /co/mrade 01/13/10(Wed)00:22 No.7565522
    >>7565490
    We turn our attention to Sableye as he stands over his passed-out friend. After giving the Ghost Pokemon a sympathetic look, we fish out a Revive from Sarina's bag and begin administering it to Seviper.

    "Seviper, my friend, can you hear me? Are you badly hurt?"
    >> Charming Spell !K6Y3jvHRYk 01/13/10(Wed)00:25 No.7565565
    >>7565522
    Seviper groans slightly as he revives, then looks up at you, nodding slowly. "I'm all right..."
    Also, FYI, Sableye is female.
    >> Researcher Sam 01/13/10(Wed)00:28 No.7565595
    >>7565565
    "Sarina, do you want us to revive <Sarina's pokemon>?"
    >> helpful /co/mrade 01/13/10(Wed)00:28 No.7565599
    >>7565565
    (gotcha)
    "You fought very bravely, comrade. Without your help, I doubt we would've been able to escape the Monster alive. Your Master would surely be proud if he could see you now..." We glance at Sableye, "..and you as well, dear Sableye."
    >> Charming Spell !K6Y3jvHRYk 01/13/10(Wed)00:31 No.7565635
    >>7565599
    Sableye smiles slightly at that; Seviper doesn't, but does look at you with a bit more respect.
    >>7565595
    She turns back, giving you a small smile. "Yes, please... where's Porygon2?"
    >> helpful /co/mrade 01/13/10(Wed)00:32 No.7565646
    >>7565635
    We search around for Porygon2
    >> Charming Spell !K6Y3jvHRYk 01/13/10(Wed)00:33 No.7565662
    >>7565646
    Porygon2 is absolutely nowhere to be found right now, anywhere near the boat.
    >> Researcher Sam 01/13/10(Wed)00:33 No.7565663
    >>7565635
    "I... don't know. It's possible that the mystery pokemon took him; they bore some similarity, and he was acting oddly during the battle."
    >> helpful /co/mrade 01/13/10(Wed)00:34 No.7565672
    >>7565662
    Have Magnemite see if he can sense where Porygon might be, or at least the direction he disappeared from.
    >> Charming Spell !K6Y3jvHRYk 01/13/10(Wed)00:36 No.7565697
    >>7565672
    Snover goes around reviving Sarina's Pokemon as Magnemite searches, then turns back to you. "I get a signal, but it's from far away back there, and I can't sense it for too long before I lose it."
    >> helpful /co/mrade 01/13/10(Wed)00:39 No.7565730
    >>7565697
    "Porygon2 is a dear companion of Sarina, and one of our allies, Magnemite. I wonder - would you be able to follow them and find out where they're going, without being spotted and being able to find your way back to us? If we can't go back for him, we should at least know where the Monster is taking him."
