>>5297350Impossible
>>5297351Welcome to the club! Heh heh.
>>5297351Don't worry Mr. Peterson, we don't have any pronouns here.
Wigglytuff has been spotted by Maroon absconding from the guildmster's office with a papercraft Cherrim head. He retreats impossibly fast in the direction of treasure town, just what is he planning?
>>5297344>enter the thread on a tide of wanting to set rain>also join the level 50 club
>>5297366>Welcome to the club Storm Brother!
>>5297376https://youtu.be/o048xeNQ3Wo
Wigglytuff rushes into the heart of Treasure Town with his ball, before diving into Electivire's link shop, in full view of any who many be following. It's densely packed with pokemon from all fashions of exploration teams, guild members, and shops! Looks like almost the whole town's here, even! Those who aren't preoccupied Brighten up significantly upon seeing your entry and greet you. Tables lined will all kinds of handmade Spinda drinks and apple based snacks of all varieties have been set up, what haven't been ruined by the copious amounts of confetti being flung by Team Bluster.There's...>Big Apple>Gummi'd Apple>Mineral Apple>Applin>Apple Teato choose from. Also, looks like a great many pokemon are available to chat with. You hear the Kecleon Brothers asking around for Ymir and Castform, and Wigglytuff whispering behind the counter about Mistral.What do?
>>5297390"Now this is my kinda party!">Big Apple*He takes a big apple to munch on*"What's this about the Keckleons wanting to see me?"*He tries to find the brothers*
>>5297390Vee looks at the apple tea. "Is it like apple juice..?"
>>5297390"Hmm. Gummi'd Apple sounds good at the moment>Gummi'd Apple"What to do now..."
>>5297390Maroon bounds over to the food table and starts serving himself a huge cup of Appple Tea. "Hey, Mistral! Could you make some ice cubes for everyone?" He shouts.
>>5297399"I would imagine a bit more bitter than usual Vee.">Charles says as he breaks off pieces of the gummi'd apple to eat
>>5297390>ApplinKaku picks up the... "Wait a second!"
>>5297390>>5297403"They threw an entire festival, huh.">Gummi'd AppleOlly walks up to Charles "What's this about again?"
Rolled 20 (1d20)>>5297399Rolling for apple-juiciness!
>>5297390>Gummi'd apple>he's looking for the best tasting one, probably a white gummi'd applecertainly more festive than I remember!wait, messing with Zone can be held off for a bit, I hear someone calling.>having heard their calls, Cast heads over to the kekleon shop
>>5297390*Cava's looking for a certain team AWD. Time to get Night Slash, hopefully...
>>5297390>Mineral Applemmm....>Sable is "sneaking" absurd amount of mineral apples into his stomach
>>5297405"I'm not sure myself Olly. I think Wigglytuff just came over and said there would be a party.">Charles continues to eat his gummi'd apple"Enjoying the food?"
>>5297390Pika saunters into town and takes some Apple Tea before moving to socialize with the townsfolk.
Rolled 13 (1d20)>>5297390Astor swipes one of each
>>5297409"Sable? Don't eat all of them!"
>>5297390Mistral walks over to Wigglytuff, listening to his whispering. He nods quietly.>>5297402"A second, if you could," Mistral says, looking at Wigglytuff. "Does anyone have any water for me to freeze? We can crush the ice or have it cut up to fit."
>>5297415>Sable throws a bunch of them in his mouth and scampers off on all fours
>>5297418"Mistral?">Charles calls over"I can get you water if you need it. Life Dew and all that!"
>>5297419>He turns back to Sable"SABLE!! Share some with other peop-pokemon!"
The Gummi'd Apples seem to have several different varieties of gummi melted over them. It's sweet enough to give one diabetes... assuming pokemon could be so afflicted.The mineral apples... You can't tell if they've been intentionally prepared or if they're regular apples someone dropped on the ground. Either way, they're as rocky as one could want from an... apple.>>5297404"Hiya! Please don't eat me! I just got here!">>5297406This tea can only be about 50% sugar. It may as well be juice. Who mixed this?The Kecleon bros appear before Ymir and bow. "We are eternally humbled by your generousity and empathy, kind patron. With your donations, we can restore our beautiful coffers in a mere seven days! All these worthless plain seeds you brought aren't nearly thanks enough, so..."Kecleon Jr. reaches into a comically large sack of 10,000 plain seeds both of them are pulling to fish out a glowing spiral seed. "Your purchase, plus a complimentary import from the Air Continent! Don't spend it all at once~"
>>5297424Vee sips it. "MMMmm!" He continues drinking it. He slams it in one go. "I want another!" Vee gets a refill of apple tea.
>>5297410"It's not bad." Olly munches on the treat as he observes Sable acting like a goblin.
>>5297427>Charles sighs and eats another bit of the gummi"I hope he wasn't like this in his previous life..."
Rolled 13 (1d20)>>5297424*Cava is attempting to look for AWD some more with is only eye... Let's hope that they're not on his left side.
>>5297420Maroon shakes his cup. "Pretty please, Charles? Mistral? I need my drinky."
>>5297420"Sure, we can try it. It's... sanitary, right?"
>>5297424"Sorry! Your camouflage is a bit detrimental..." Kaku puts the mon' on the floor. He eats a Gummi'd Apple instead.
Rolled 15 (1d20)>>5297424>>5297425Vee is on his second refill already. He's enjoying it a lot. "Woo! It's so good!"
Rolled 6 (1d20)>>5297433"Maroon never say it like that again please.">>5297434"I collect the water from the air. Should be pretty sanitary.'>Charles used Life Dew to provide water!
Rolled 2 (1d20)Astor tries the mineral apples, he vibes meanwhile
>>5297424>Cast looks at the spiral seed>he THINKS it's an empowerment seedreal strong stuff, who gets it Ymir?
Wigglytuff hops up from behind the counter with a "TAAAAHHH!!~", as if anyone couldn't tell he was already there. "Surprise, Mister...... Mistral! It's a party!! We should hang out and share snacks!" Chatot approaches from the other direction and coughs. Tuff continues, "Haha, after we get this sorted out! It's a human tradition, I hear!" He holds up the paper mache Cherrim head. "You break the ball and all kinds of neat treasure goes flying everywhere!">>5297431Scav spots a Weavile leaning by Xatu's Appraisal, pointedly ignoring an arbok and Drapion's profuse apologies.Astor bites in, realizing belatedly it's a Grimy Food. He is silenced for a bit.
>>5297443*Cava approaches AWD at a moderate pace. He is just now realizing that casually going up to a dude and asking for a claw/fang/whatever is terribly awkward.
>>5297443Maroon's head snaps towards the two of them and he barks, "you have a pinata? Woo!"Maroon is howling with excitement.
>>5297443"Beating a proxy of someone's head for rewards is tradition? That's messed up." Olly mutters to Charles. He looks up at the massive 'mon as he finishes the apple."Mind giving me a ride around? I feel like I'm going to get stepped on here."
>>5297442It sure is! The Kecleon Bros are equally moved by your own mercy, and grant you a smaller bag with 800 plain seeds and an encourage seed.>>5297436"Right? I can't wait to evolve. Then I might be strong enough to fly, and nobody will try to eat me! It'll be great!... But all my friends say appletun can't fly, no matter what..."
>>5297443Citrine is chatting at the edge of the party.
>>5297450>Charles finishes his Gummi"Heh! Well, usually its not on a particular individual. Most of the time its a very colorful horse. And sure! Hop on!">Charles lowers himself so Olly can get on his back pack or head
>>5297453Vee rushes over. "Hi!" Vee leaves.>>5297450>>5297454Vee practically teleports over to Charles and Olly. "Hi! What're we doing over here?"
>>5297452"Then, why not just... Evolve into Flapple? There's probably a Tart Apple in between all this snacks, you could eat one like, right now!"
>>5297452Thank you!>castform accepts the seedsI, uh, wasn't actually expecting much in return for the donation. but this could really help out in the field!>now that's handled, bow farewell for now and return to the rest of the group
Rolled 8 (1d20)>>5297443"What the fuck is this Wiggly?"The grimy food is launched at great speed, directed to Chatot if he's there, Wiggly otherwise
>>5297456"Oh! Hello Vee! Just giving Olly a ride so he doesn't get stepped on. You see anything of interest?"
>>5297454>>5297456Olly climbs on Charles' head and waves down to Vee "Just hanging around. You seem excited."
>>5297464>Charles takes his top hat and places it on his Passenger's head
Rolled 3 (1d20)>>5297438"Alright, let's see how well I can freeze this thing." Mistral looks to the generated water. "It's not much, but here we go.">Blizzaaaard on the water!>>5297443"Yeah. This is a party, alright."
>>5297461>>5297464"I got juice!" Vee downs his apple tea and goes to get some more. He's at the table repeatedly ringing a bell that wasn't he isn't sure was there before.He gets tired of waiting and gets more himself, returning to Charles and Olly. "It's the best!"
>>5297470"Is that so? And here I thought Tea would be bitter. Think I'll try some.">Charles moves over and graps a cup of apple Tea for himself and Olly
Drapion and Arbok are lying prone on the ground, muttering at supersonic speeds while Weavile sharpens a few claws."W-we're deeply sorry! They merely got the drop on us! Given a single extra turn, we will have our revenge!""We sssshall accept any punissssshment you deem appropriate until our next chanccce to prove ourselvessss."Wigglytuff walks to the center of the town square, and flicks the ball straight up into the sky, absurdly high. Meanwhile, Mistral's blizzard freezes a flying grimy food to Chatot's wing."I should have kept to the setup and went home...awk!"
>>5297471"It's sweet! It's like Pechas and apples if they were one thing and also juice!"
>>5297473"Hey, are ya bunch the famed Team AWD I've heard about?"
>>5297467The water is frozen into a tub of ice. Maroon promptly shatters it against the ground and moves the chunks in the bucket to his own cup."Thanks, Mistral!" He barks happily before taking a long swig of his cool drink."Fruity."
>>5297473Poli seems to have shown up at some point, drinking some kind of foul-smelling beverage that was never meant to be consumed by any living being ever. He's also avoiding actually speaking to anyone.
>>5297471>>5297470Olly takes the offered tea and sips it carefully "Not my thing." The top hat shifts and Olly disappears within it.
>>5297473"Whoops, my bad, uh, Chatot."
>>5297478"H-hey! How'd you fit in there?">Charles takes a sip to clam his nerves
Rolled 17 (1d20)>>5297473>castform detects the light, and resists tthe urge to set rain>for now, back to charles and the portable crew.>>5297482>rolling for suprise appearenceHey charles!
Rolled 11 (1d20)>Sable tries to sneak more mineral apples
>>5297482>Calm>>5297484"Gaaah! C-Cast! Where did you come from?!"
>>5297424(I return)"Well ain't that just a sight for soar eyes! Always glad to be of help!"
>>5297487Kekleon's shop! they gave me a funny seed that makes me crit
>>5297489"Oh really? My, that was nice of them!"
Despite the complete lack of any mechanism to do such a thing on command, Wigglytuff stomps on the ground with a "Yoom-TAHHH!~", and two flashes of light later, them Cherrim pinata is torn apart in a violent explosion, sending familiar glittering seeds in every direction all over town. Looks like Bind set this up privately with Wigglytuff. It's mostly sparkling dough seeds picked up by the townsfolk, but within the guild's reach are...(pick one)>Quick Seed - Speed boosts Target>Razz Berry - Bolsters mercy rolls, and evolves trade/friendship evolution pokemon>Blast Seed - Explodes on target>Dough Seed - Delivers 850P on the winds of fortune>Reviver Seed - Revives target>Charti Berry Seed - Halves damage from a supereffective rock move>Energy Seed - Heals 500 HP to target>X-eye Seed - Disable’s target’s ability to discern pokemon or items>Vanish Seed - Makes target invisible>Germinator - Hold item, reduces user’s max >HP by 20%, but heals user for 33% of damage done by rock, ground, and grass moves.>Chople Berry Seed - Halves Damage from a supereffective fighting move>Violent Seed - Maxes out both attack stat stages>Tsuchi Dango - a ball of charged seeds and dirt produced by Hisuian Electrode. Evokes discharge upon use>Energy Seed - Heals 500 HP for target>Reviver Seed - Revives target>Encourage Seed - Boosts crit rate by 2 stages and ensures moves never miss, until an ally faints
>>5297491"And I got a weird seed!"
>>5297493>Violent Seed
>>5297493>Charles takes the Encouragement seed
>>5297493>cast grabs an Quick seed
>>5297493Vee rushes over and takes the Quick Seed
>>5297493Astor takes the Chople berry seed
>>5297493>Kaku takes the X-eye Seed
>>5297493>Mistral takes the Tsuchi Dango"I wonder what this is?"
>>5297493Olly motions for Charles to grab him the Encourage Seed
>>5297494>>5297494Vee rushes over and takes the Vanish Seed.
>>5297493Poli walks over to pick the Germinator, discarding what appears to be a pile of sludge.
>>5297507Noticing the dragon took the one he wanted, he goes for the Razz Berry instead
>>5297507>Charles, busy inspecting his seed, had his head lowered enough for Olly to grab something from the pile
>>5297493*Ymir waits for the others before getting a reviver seed*"This'll get us out of a jam!"
>>5297493>Charles looks at the encouragement seed"Hmm. This looks interesting.."
Rolled 9 (1d20)>Rolling for rock apple gets
>>5297510>Charles addresses Olly"Oh! Sorry! Did you grab anything Olly?"
>>5297519"I got a thing!" Vee got a Vanish Seed.
>>5297473>>5297475"...Are you busy doing something? I can leave if you want..."
>>5297522"Oh! Very nice Vee! Hehe, that vanish seed suits you!"
>>5297519>>5297522"Got this berry. Looks neat."
>>5297522>>5297525>castform is munching on his bag of plain seedsindeed, seems like something that'd work great for you vee!
Rolled 17 (1d20)>>5297524"Cava! Need a door to hq!"Astor tries to convince the bug
>>5297525>>5297526>>5297527"Thanks!" Vee drinks more apple tea. He's vibrating now.
>>5297526"Oh! Very nice! Perhaps we can find out what our items do when we get back to the guild. Not quite sure what this one does."
Bind catches an energy seed straight out of the air."Poli, That dirt smells weird. Even worse than your usual concoctions.Weavile doesn't bother opening her eyes to chip a piece of wood off the store to flick at Arbok and quiet him. "You there! Shelly! You want something." More of a statement than a question. She doesn't look to be in a good mood.>>5297515>>5297515You bite into something sharp! It kinda stings, but the rocks in this apple look pretty innocuous, despite their cutting edge. Innocuous enough... Sable got (1) stealth rock!
>>5297530"Vee?">Charles looks worried"Are you doing alright?"
>>5297493Maroon is about to grab some seeds for himself only to see they've all been taken."Oh. . ."Maroon just pours himself more apple tea and drinks.
>>5297534"Apple tea." He says, calmly.
Rolled 9 (1d20)Wigglytuff smells someone in the air...
Rolled 8 (1d20)>>5297530...you know? I would like to try some of that tea>castform grabs some apple tea, seeing if it's sweet enough
>>5297529*Cava doesn't bother.>>5297533"Yeah. Sooooooo mind if I take a fang or something from that Drapion? It's so I can learn Night Slash."*Cava is being as blunt as he usually is.
Rolled 6 (1d20)>>5297543*Cava casually munches on a gummi'd apple.
>>5297540>acceptably sweet>could be sweeter though
Rolled 9 (1d20)Vee rushes to the table once more to get another refill on apple tea and to eat a gummi'd apple in one bite.
Rolled 17 (1d20)Still peeved at being too slow to snag any seeds for himself, Maroon finds a secluded spot away from the festivities and starts setting up. He pulls some strange seed from his mane and tosses them on the ground. They wiggle into the earth and quickly sprout to set Grassy Terrain."Might as well do something productive with all this upset. . ." he murmurs as he sets it to Harsh Sunlight with an Infernal Firework."Perfect.">Maroon uses Solar Beam to put on a show!
Weavile isn't put off by your bluntness. Not completely, at least. "A fang's a tall order, for that, buster. I need this lout to settle some personal business, you see? What would I get out of it by giving my precious weapons out to a stranger, huh?">>5297549Vee's packed with sugar! He's got enough speed to make QPU steps!Wigglytuff is making his way back to Mistral and a struggling Chatot rolling over himself when he's lauched into the air by a giant golden wheel erupting from the ground. Victini climbs out from under before bursting into flames along with a few spouts from the wheel.
>>5297558"Is that...is that Victini?">Charles raises a gooey eyebrow
>>5297550>>5297558Olly peeks from under the top hat when he hears the explosions "Are we under attack?" He seems a little too excited by the prospect.
>>5297558"V-Wheel! V-Wheel! V-Wheel!"
>>5297558"I'unno. Whaddya want, Cash? My backup Eyepatch? My- Actually I probably can't give that away, this TM? Or what?"
>>5297562"Oh that's probably just Maroon. He always likes putting on a show.">Charles splits his attention between the light show and the visiting Victini
>>5297558"Weeeeeee!" Vee is running around at high speeds.>>5297562"Maybe!"
>>5297558*Ymir notices the fireball that is Victini*"That little guy looks familiar."
>>5297550"Huh? I wonder who's doing all of that?" Mistral looks to the sky.
>>5297562"I don't know, probably."
>>5297558V wheel!
Rolled 16 (1d20)Maroon takes another swig of his drink before collecting the light around him, using the grass underneath him as a sort of net for the sunlight the space around him dims unnaturally before he fires yet another pillar of dazzling light into the sky.
Maroon's lightshow mesmerizes all the onlookers, cutting shapes into clouds and spreading a refreshing late spring breeze through the growing grass.Victini cheers Maroon on by flicking him a free red ticket."Parties! Bars! Funerals! The wondrous V-Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeel can spice up any gathering! Wanna spin? I've got a discount on tickets!Wigglyttuff lands on top of the wheel and starts tumbling, causing it to spin.>Red ticket - trade 3 items>Blue ticket - trade 6 items
>>5297582"Funerals? My favourite!"Poli doesn't actually participate, though.
Rolled 12 (1d20)>>5297582>APPROACH victinihow many blue tickets is 800 seeds worth?
>>5297582Olly looks around at the escalating merriment and hides back under the hat, only peeking a little bit from under it to keep an eye out. He slips out a list of items he can trade to Charles to get a blue ticket.>TM Recover (used)>Basement Key>HM12(unobtainable item)>Morph Mail>HM01(Cut- Single use)>Mach Bike
Rolled 4 (1d20)>>5297582>Charles tentatively walks over"Greetings Victini.">He tips his hat, does Olly's tail appear?I would like one red ticket please>Charles trades in TM Flash Canon, Enigma berry, and Small Pink Shard>>5297590"Oh! And items to trade in from my associate."
>>5297582Vee runs over and gives Victini a Shadow Ball TM, Whirlpool HM, Salac Berry, Charcoal, Oran Berry, and Heal Powder. "Blue is cool I think!" He's patiently waiting for something cool to happen.
>>5297582"How's about a red ticket? I'm feelin' lucky!"*He offers a Quick Seed, a plain seed, and a Quick Orb*
>>5297582"I'll take a red ticket, for this 3 random berries!">Kebia, Roseli, Lansat
>>5297582Maroon takes a moment to rest and return to the party. He sees Victini and blinks in shock. "What are you doing here?" He barks.
>>5297582>thinking again, cast hands 2 ethers and a Battle CD
>>5297582>>5297592"On second thought, let me have a blue ticket. Here">Charles hands over Max potion, petrify wand, and Pink orb
>>5297582"Sure, why not'Astor asks for 1 blue ticket and 1 red ticket, he gives>Reviver x3>TM (Hyper Beam)>lagging tail>Power belt>Muscle wing>Razor fang>Seal Case
>>5297582"Uh. . . Hey, can I trade this for something?" Maroon searches his mane and pulls out his Primarinium-Z.
>>5297611>castform stares
>>5297611"And um. . . These two." Maroon hands over a hefty amount of Grassy Seeds and Infernal Parades.
>>5297558>>5297565*Cava continues to pull out random stuff from underneath his cloak."This weird CD that's not a TM? A berry? This Lax Incense? Some Electric Seeds? Another TM? A Blast Seed? Joy seed, maybe? Another Berry? This fossil? Some Pepper Spray? This copy of Metal Gear Solid 3? Joking about that last one. It's not for sale.
Chatot is rolling in circles trying to get the ice and grime out of his wing.A very tired and overheated glaceon with with a Victini pin collects the items for Victini and leaves in the direction of Spinda cafe after passing out tickets."V-Wheel. V-Wheel! V-Wheeeeeeeeeeeeel!" Victini throws his hands down on the contraption as it spins, and it lets out a burst of flame, as Wigglytuff jumps up for a celebratory fist pump to the air before continuing his spin.>>5297590Olly gets...A Joy Seed!>>5297592>>5297604Charles gets...A Vile Seed!>>5297596Vee gets...An Eevee card!>>5297597Ymir gets...A radar orb!>>5297602Casform gets... a Blue Gummi!>>5297604Astor gets...A heal seed, and a Joy Seed!>>5297628"What I need..." She punches the wall, and her teammates look down. "-Is something that can definitively put me over those do-gooders Team Charm! We've been at it ever since that cave incident, and it's really starting to get to me... Give me something we can use to beat a Lopunny, Medicham, and Gardevoir in a fight and I may let you sample my subordinates' 'tools'."Drapion cowers a bit, but he doesn't object.
>>5297630>oh hell yeah!
>>5297630>Charles feels the sickening aura from the seed"Oh...oh my.">He gags a little
>>5297630Vee takes the Eevee Card. "Thank you!" He's enjoying having the card.
>>5297630"Neat."*Ymir ponders his new orb*
Rolled 11 (1d20)>>5297630Astor downs the seed immediatly"Thanks sucker!"Astor uses Brave Bird
>>5297630"Pepper Spray's would be useful. It's a... You can say repellent. If used correctly, it can blind 'em! It should have quite a few uses or last long, considering it's the "max" version. You can also throw it and light it on fire to make it explode or something, I dunno. One of the TMs is for Calm Mind, which I think you can learn, if the Weavile I know's right. Pretty useful move."
>>5297639>>5297630"Team Charm has that Gardevoir, so the Sp. Def boost can definitely help against fairy attacks. Lax Incense boosts Evasion, I think? Which could be a nice item can have."
>>5297630>Maroon turns his Primarinium-Z, a bunch of Grassy Seeds and Infernal Parades for a Red Ticket.>Maroon uses two red tickets to roll.
As you enjoy the festivities, you can't help but look up at the sky with all the art that Maroon managed to carve. It's admittedly not that bad for someone using a giant sun laser to shape the clouds.You blink.There's something up there that isn't a cloud. You're not entirely sure, unless it might just be passing flying-types.>It's nothing. Ignore it.>[Perception Roll] It's a little far but maybe I can see it...

"Oh? None of us use ranged attacks, so that Gardevoir is a problem... "And those nuisances like to catch seeds and thorns, too... heeeey, I like the look of this!" In the blink of an eye, Drapion gasps and buries his head in the ground, while Weavile has already balanced a fang on one of your lances. "Pleasure doing business with you... And keep in touch. I may have more use for you if this pans out!" She smiles and returns to loitering in the sun.>>5297649Maroon gets...A Fire Gem, and an Eyedrop Seed!
>>5297650>Charles starts reeling>He falls over from Vile seed exposure>Something so evil just doesn't sit right with him>He's out cold
>>5297660"Huh, well I'll be..." Kaku waves at the psychic. Maybe think "Hi" if he can hear him.
Rolled 7 (1d20)>>5297650>perception roll>Castform is tempted to go up and investigate
>>5297660Vee waves fastly.
>>5297664Olly climbs out of the hat and nudges Charles to no effect. "Damn, did you drink too much?" Olly looks up to see the familiar creature. "I guess he's done moping around." He waves.
"You know, I don't think I ever see you go out for anything other than dung-hmm?"
>>5297664*Ymir just makes out the figure before noticing Charles faint.*"Woah hold on buddy I got ya!"*He brings Charles to a safe corner to lie down*
>>5297671"I didn't expect to see him here! It looks like he's doing better I think I hope! Also how's Charles?"
Rolled 4 (1d20)uh
>>5297660Out and about, is he? Good for him...>Sable waves to his mourningbro
>>5297662"Awesome, thanks! I'll keep in touch!"*Cava leaves, with the shiny new Drapion Fang.
>>5297668>>5297665You watch Mewtwo close the distance in rapid, near-supersonic flight. In seconds, you see him rapidly decelerate and transition to a vertical position.Quietly floating down, he touches the ground without much fanfare. A small pomf of dirt and dust rushes around his legs.He looks to the gathered pokemon, scanning them. Perhaps some partygoers find themselves stunned and others without a care in the world. Robotically, he waves to Kaku, Sableye, and Vee.GREETINGS. IT HAS BEEN A WHILE.
"Nevermind. I thought I heard a plane or something, but... that doesn't make any sense."
>>5297680"...Oh."*Cava floats off.
Rolled 2 (1d20)>>5297680>castform has been consuming more gummi apples, and hearing the sound of someone landing, turns to see mewtwo>he tries to wave, forgetting the lack of arms
>>5297680Citrine stares blankly."Why're you here?"
>>5297680Hello, how have you been?
>>5297680"Huh? Oh. . . Uh. . . Hi." Maroon mumbles, struggling to remember who this weird cat was.
>>5297680"Sorry, I already drank all of my Most Definitely Medicinal Substance I Am Not Abusing For Recreational Purposes."
>>5297680"That it has! You feeling better now? You arrive at a great time."
>>5297675"I thought it was our big cat friend, didn't get a good look before Charles tipped over...I think it was that weird seed he was got."*With Charles seemingly secure Ymir goes to greet Mewtwo*"Been a while mate, glad to see ya!"
Rolled 4 (1d20)>>5297680"Hey... what was your name? Anyways, by any chance do you know what is this?"Astor offers Mewtwo a doom seed
>>5297680"It has! It's nice to see you again! How's it going?"
>>5297680"Fascinating. Didn't expect to see it with my own eyes. Living relic of the old world."
Bind yips and steps behind Poli for a second, before uncurling and shakily approaching. "H-hey! ...Long flight?" he offers an apple tea with a strainingly fully extended arm.
>>5297695Vee looks at the apple tea and has to stop himself from drinking it.
>>5297695Poli doesn't react to this at all, besides continuing to sip his cup of unholy beverage, immediately proving his previous statement wrong.
>>5297685Mewtwo looks to Castform, reading his thoughts for the gesture. He returns the attempted wave.>>5297686He turns to Citrine, staring for a moment. DO YOU DISLIKE MY PRESENCE? I HAD SOMETHING TO ASK OF ALL OF YOU.>>5297687Mewtwo is about to respond to Sableye but remembers a detail. "...I am in an acceptable state." His voice sounds very weak, almost lost to a whisper.>>5297688He does another robotic wave. GREETINGS.>>5297689I HAVE HEARD OF SUCH THINGS FROM THE... HUMANS. He clenches a hand. IT IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU. THAT IS ALL I CAN SAY.>>5297690IT HAS IMPROVED SINCE WE LAST SAW EACH OTHER. >>5297691I APPRECIATE YOUR ENTHUSIASTIC GREETING. THANK YOU.>>5297692MY NAME? I HAVE ALWAYS REFERRED TO MYSELF AS M-TWO. I THINK IT IS A GOOD NAME. THEY CALLED IT VERY UNIQUE.He looks to the doom seed that Astor is offering.I AM UNCERTAIN BUT IT DOES NOT PROVIDE A REASSURING AURA. I SUGGEST YOU DISCARD OF IT.>>5297693IT IS NICE TO SEE YOU TWO, SMALL EEVEE. He smiles. >>5297694Mewtwo turns to Pika. THAT IS CORRECT. I PREFER GUARDIAN. IT IS A KINDER TITLE.>>5297695He notices Bind offering the drink. YES. THE FLIGHT WAS LONG. IT WAS NOT AS EASY TO TRACK ALL OF YOU AS I NAVIGATED THE UNFAMILIAR TERRITORY.Mewtwo walks over and accepts the food, taking a cursory sip. Not revolted by it, he continues to drink as he talks.I UNDERSTAND YOUR APPREHENSION. I BEAR NO MORE HOSTILITIES.
Rolled 9 (1d20)>>5297709Instead of replying, Poli just uses Hydro Pump to dilute his drink to drink even more of it, staring directly at Mewtwo while he does so.
>>5297709"At least you know where we are now! You're always welcome to come say hi!"
Rolled 2 (1d20)>>5297709"Eh, i hqve no use for it, wanna eat it?"
>>5297709Well, you're welcome to join the party!>castform consumes another apple tea
>>5297709"It's just a little weird, is all. I'm surprised you came out all this way."
>>5297709"Well, whatever you need, ask away! You'll see there's plenty of hospitality around here."
>>5297709>Sable matches his toneI'll be here for you, whenever you need.
>>5297709Maroon decides despite his confusion and losses today not to be an anti-social loser and try to be friendly with the Mewtwo."What brings you all the way here?" He asks.
>>5297709"I-I am certain, Mewtwo. I j-just struggle in such strong presences, I am trying to get over it... I am certain all-" He glances at Team AWD and Skull brooding in obscure corners, "most everyone here would love to get to k-know you?"
>>5297713I STILL MAINTAIN MY ORIGINAL POSITION.>>5297716>>5297718>>5297724YOUR HOSPITALITY IS APPRECIATED. I DID NOT SEEK YOU ALL OUT TO PARTICIPATE IN A "PARTY" BUT I WILL STAY IF THAT IS ACCEPTABLE.>>5297719>>5297722>>5297727Mewtwo looks around at the party, watching all the pokemon enjoy themselves with the apple food and small events. Some gaze at him briefly but quickly look away under his gaze. I RECALL WHAT YOU WERE ALL DOING. NOW THAT I AM WITHOUT... ANYTHING TO DO... I ASK TO BE INDUCTED INTO YOUR ORGANIZATION.His tail waves around. IT IS IN FAMILIARITY THAT I FIND MYSELF WANTING. I FAILED MY ORIGINAL PURPOSE BUT I DECIDED THAT THIS WOULD BE A SECOND CHANCE. WE ARE CHILDREN OF HUMANITY. I BELIEVE WE SHOULD STICK TOGETHER.>>5297730>Mewtwo's Pressure!Eyes falling on the party again, he realizes that in his solitary vigilance, he has been missing out on something. While his expression is guarded, [Perception Roll], you think you can try to make something out.I DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THAT. MOST DO NOT SEEM EAGER TO SEEK ME OUT JUST YET.
>>5297733"Welcome to the Lost Hope Guild, then! Hehe!"
Rolled 5 (1d20)>>5297733>>5297734Vee looks at him happily.(Perception roll)
>>5297733"Oh?" Maroon suddenly hops to his feet and appears besides Mewtwo suddenly."If you're looking for a new home then perhaps you'd be interested in New Hope? It's not Castelia City, but I try my best."
>>5297733"Always good to have another friend on board! Especially one as strong as you. Our battle was a real heated one."
Rolled 18 (1d20)>>5297733"Would love a chance to talk about your past, perhaps study your biology as well. I'm sure you will be welcome in the guild." Pika carefully studies Mewtwo's expression.
>>5297733"Well, we don't say no even when we should! So... >>5297730 our fearless leader! Do we accept him in our ensemble?"
Rolled 8 (1d20)>>5297733Well, if you need some space for yourself, come on over to Sable City. There's plenty of room for someone to spread out and still have privacy. Either way, I'm glad to have you anytime! >Sable looks into Mewtwo's expression
Rolled 15 (1d20)>>5297733"Sure..."Astor searches for clues
>>5297733>>5297741His word choice resonates with Bind. "A s-second choice you want?... A second choice you'll have. It's the one thing we all have in common, after all!"He starts picking up his composure, maybe in time to see...
Rolled 9 (1d20)uh
Rolled 4 (1d20)>>5297733Ah, wonderful! we'd be happy to have a powerhouse like you on the team>perceive
Rolled 1 (1d20)>>5297733(Perception Roll)
Rolled 2 (1d20)>>5297733>PerceptionCitrine is suddenly suspicious of Mewtwo.
>>5297756You hear "...sussy..." from somewhere.
>>5297734>>5297739>>5297741>>5297744>>5297748>>5297751I HAD MUCH TIME TO CONSIDER MY NEXT MOVE. YOU WERE ALL CORRECT. I BELIEVE THEY WOULD HAVE APPROVED OF THIS INSTEAD OF SITTING AS AN ETERNAL GUARD. TO SEE MYSELF WASTING MY LIFE WITH NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT. WITH MY FREEDOM, I WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHERE I COULD NOT BEFORE.Mewtwo gives a bow. He turns his body to look at the open sky.THANK YOU. I WILL APPLY MY EXPERTISE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT. THIS WILL NOT BE A REGRETFUL DECISION. >>5297740>>5297746Looking at Mewtwo is not easy. There's just an overwhelming aura backing him and his features are almost neutral. However, you can see beyond his almost-perfect facade. Under his stoic expression is a pang of sadness and loneliness. You can see it whenever he stares at the party.>>5297756Citrine is just staring at him, unable to determine anything.>>5297755Ymir gets a headache from trying to look a little too hard. Ouch!
>>5297766Pika smiles as she recognizes the expression."You'll find everyone here is quite amiable, given time to get to know you."
>>5297766>>5297772"Yep! I hope we can be friends!"
>>5297766>Sable smiles at MewtwoWoo! New friend at the guild!
>>5297766Will Mewtwo regret this decision? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Z Ka-
>>5297766Welcome aboard(I must rest now, it's 5:30)
>>5297766"I think I'm getting Good alignment points from this. Ouch. Ow. Oof. Owie. Ouch. Ow. Ouch."
>>5297766"You good mate?"Astor actually cares
>>5297766"We'll ah, show you to our place and get you a room. And don't worry, This town has a history of coming around on newcomers, no matter the flavor!"
A small object comes fluttering into the guild hall, and you watch it twirl and spin in the air before it promptly crashes into the grass. You approach the strange thing, realizing that it was not a pokemon but... something creased and folded. You stare at the crumpled and wrinkled texture of the paper, the nose partially pushed in from the rough landing. Picking it up, you note the construction is meticulously made to resemble a Pidgey. Who could have made this?In the light, you catch the footprint rune bleeding through the paper. Carefully peeling it open, you pull the letters out. The scraps of paper need to be assembled into something readable...It reads:>To the Lost Hope Guild, may this letter find you in good spirits and health (if you are not them do not read this letter, or else you will activate the self-destruct function).>Despite our past quarrel and how I am very evil, I have deduced that working together is the most sensible action. >I have heard of your criminal past, so that must mean you're all evil!!! Therefore, you will work with me.>You see, I tire of this cell and the simpletons around it who do not grasp the scope of my genius, and I have been planning a truly dastardly plan. >I will make construct the Big-Rainifier to drown out Treasure Town and force them to relocate us to a different jail!The next paper is just him writing out "Muahahahaha...">This plan relies on Water Stones, which I am severely lacking. For I am in jail.>I have attached to the Message-Senderer the location where they naturally may be found.>Yours Most Dastardly and Devious, Doctor Derange D. Doppler.You stare at the pieces, message received. Do you help him?Chapter 26: Brine-Filled Breakout
>>5301906We are not flooding Treasure Town.
>>5301911"Did someone say that we're flooding treasure town? Count me in!"
>>5301906"I ain't helping flood the town. Guess we can at least tell him that."
>>5301906>>5301911Aww... can I still drop a natural disaster over there?
>>5301915No.
Rolled 18 (1d20)>>5301916>this displeases castform>I shall now roll to be sure cast's poor spirits don't activate the lettter's self destruct button
Rolled 4 (1d20)>>5301919"Do it, no balls"
>>5301922Casform is literally a ball on a cloud.
>>5301922...I am literally all ball astor.and I'm not going to go against sable like that. divers and storm as teams are too close for that shit.
Rolled 9 (1d20)>>5301924"Like i said, no balls"
>>5301906"But why would we do that? Why would we actively produce rain to break out someone we put in jail? Why would he send US a letter about this?""Eugh. Rain."
Rolled 12 (1d20)>>5301923"What about you? Flood Treasure Town, you get free real estate to expand Sable City, it makes sense"
>>5301928No.
>>5301931"Understandable, no flooding Treasure Town then""... what if doc is already flooding treasure town while we discuss this letter?"
>>5301932Then we stop him. We'd probably get a reward, too!
>>5301934"We could also flood town and save everyone from the flooding, extra PR"
>>5301906"Awesome! Let's go help him." Maroon announces with a big dumb smile.
>>5301936"Why, though?"
>>5301935>>5301936You two are going to rot in prison. I'm not digging you out this time.
>>5301935probably!>castform gets episode 1 flashbacksthat would also likely give mag PTSD
>>5301936"It'd be one thing if he wanted a different place but flooding the city is a hard no!"
>>5301906"Hehe, this guy has drive, I'll give him that. I say we go along with this, at the very least the water stones should net us some profit..."
Rolled 15 (1d20)>>5301939"Why? It would be my first offense, i'd serve less time">>5301940"That's how i like it! Now, uber rain!"
>>5301943"Astor, you are a member of Team Quicksand.">Astor commits high treason.
Hey wait a minute... is it even possible to flood Treasure Town? It's on top of a rock face overlooking the ocean, I'm pretty sure the water would just pour off the side and onto the beach.
>>5301938"He's a cool guy. I don't know why he's looking to relocate though- I revised his release date to be a lot sooner. Must be pretty bad."
>>5301949"You revised his release date?!?"
Guys! idea, why don't we go raid that water stone place he told us about anyway, then sell off the stones to kekleon or one of the rich mons who visit treasure town?
>>5301952"I was going to break them out, but Milo told me not, so I cooked the books- yeah." Maroon replies as if nothing was wrong with that statement.
>>5301956Arceus, give me the fortitude to not break something...>>5301954Okay, sure, why not? I need a DISTRACTION FROM SOMETHING anyway.
>>5301946"Shh, we can get Castform arrested this way"
>>5301956"I'm not surprised... but... that's illegal."
>>5301954>Castform can feel his bag rustling>Will he open it?
>>5301949>>5301956"That's how it works?! Why didn't the Silksong crowd think of that..."
>>5301960>OPEN THE BAG
>>5301962Because it's not how it works, and they're probably smart enough to know that.
>>5301963>A Non-wild Charles appears!"Oh! I thought we had left already! Hi Storm Brother. Hello everyone!"
>>5301965hey charles!>>5301957oh, what is it you need distracting from? or... is it better I not ask.
>>5301965Charles, reign in these clowns, will you? They want to flood Treasure Town.
>>5301967I need a distraction from Maroon blatantly breaking multiple laws and not seeing anything wrong with any of it.
>>5301968"What!?! Why would we do that??? I mean, I'm all for more water, but why flood a town?"
>>5301968"Didn't you just say that was impossible?"
>>5301965"Yeah, Charles! Want to flood our economic rivals for fun and profit?"
>>5301964"You wouldn't believe the things the Team Cherry Stans could delude themselves into thinking...Anyways, why don't we cut to the chase and make a vote already? Here, I'll write our options on the floor...">accept>decline
>>5301971politicians, man. it's normal for him.still, I'd assume we'd need a consensus on if we're going to raid and sell the water stones
>>5301975"NO! Not if it hurts innocent peopl-okemon!"
>>5301976>decline>>5301972Because apparently Maroon and Astor and Kaku are absolutely and utterly insane>>5301973I didn't say that, I just stated my doubts that it is possible
>>5301978"Damn. I'll just do it on my own time then." He shrugs.
>>5301976>decline to help dopplerwe can still go steal those rocks.>>5301980...you and what water maroon? you're a fire type.
>>5301976>Decline"I would rather not ruin the lives of others."
>>5301980"Hey, thats a great idea Maroon! I can't believe I just said that! Let's just do the mission ourselves and leave the rest!" >Kaku just takes the Paper Bird and goes off.
>>5301988Citrine follows to make sure they don't do anything insanely stupid.>accept...?
>>5301982Maroon grins, a drowsy look in his eyes. "Don't worry about that." He simply says before turning to Kaku. "Awesome, then we'll just head out to the location and see about relocating the doctor." He follows behind Kaku.
>>5301980>>5301988For fuck's sake...STOP. JUST STOP. DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE SUGGESTING!? ARE YOU SERIOUSLY THIS DELUSIONAL THAT YOU GENUINELY THINK FLOODING A MAJOR POPULATION CENTER IS A GOOD IDEA!? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!? DID YOU GET DROPPED ON YOUR HEADS REPEATEDLY THE SECOND YOU WERE BORN OR SOMETHING? MAROON, YOU'RE THE DICTATOR OR MAYOR OR WHATEVER OF SOME TOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF BUMBLE-FUCK NOWHERE! HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE A SINGLE FUCKING INCH OF EMPATHY FOR THE PEOPLE TRYING TO JUST LIVE THEIR LIVES!?
>>5301994Kaku is long gone, but if he could hear Sable he would say something along the lines of "tl;dr"
>>5301994Maroon is right behind Kaku, hearing the tail-end of Sableye's rant, he simply shrugs.
>>5301994"It seems they either can't or won't hear you Sable. Sorry!"
>>5301998>there is now an approaching cloud.>castform also sets rain so he can bonk the politician once he catches up
>>5301999I'm so fucking done, man. I can't take this shit anymore...
>>5302000>Charles lets the rain fall on his face"Aaaaahh. Moisture..."
>>5301994"At least it wasn't me this time"
>>5301998>>5301995>>5301990The three, after having broken off from the rest of the guild on their independent mission, find themselves at a rocky face, waves lapping and occasionally drenching the eroded footpath. Slippery. It also smells very strongly of salt and the ocean.Enter the Mystery Dungeon?>>5302000Castform follows along at a distance.
>>5302001>Charles shrugs"Sometimes we just have to be there to keep our friends out of trouble!"
>>5301976>Decline"And I will blast anyone who tries flooding innocent 'mons outta their homes!"
>>5302005Astor is close"A dungeon? Might as well..."Astor waits for everyone to enter
>>5302005"Hell yeah!" Maroon howls, diving head first with his two other friends into the dungeon.
>>5302007>Charles pats Ymir's shoulder"You are a good soul Ymir."
>>5302005"I'm pretty sure this is fairly alright," Citrine says after a long bout of thinking. "IF we make sure no one is hurt, and IF the damage isn't lasting and ESPECIALLY if we make sure he's just relocated to another jail... then it's alright. Yeah.">enter

It feels like if you stepped in the pools of brine, you'd shrivel up and probably die from how much water it would just leech from your body. Terrifying. The low-lying stalactites make flying difficult... but they also provide good leverage.You can see the Gastrodons and Omanyte pointedly avoiding not falling into the water-death-pits by scaling around on the walls. How do you plan on getting through?Your choices:>[Dexterity Roll, apply related bonuses] Wrangle a Gastrodon to ride across the wall!>[Perception Roll] Maybe I can swing if I can just make a path out...>[Fight] There's some angry ferals in the way, but if I get past them...>(Player Choice)

>>5302029"Wait...">Charles antennae sniff the air..."Oh no...SALT!">Charles gets a bad rash
>>5302030Citrine is relatively unaffected by the brine. He is, however, covered in the salt crust as he exits on the other side.>>5302031Kaku is unable to see much, the salt is getting in his eyes and causing him discomfort!>>5302033Castform misses a piece that had hidden in the shadow of another rock and bumps into it, causing him to go crashing into the pools below! While it's not paralyzingly lethal, he does feel much saltier...>Weather Ball is now temporarily Brine.>>5302034Charles manages, despite all the salt covering everything, to grip a shot of goo to swing across! It does feel like he's draining vitality each time he helps someone across.-50HP (applied only to Charles) for each person to cross with Charles.>>5302037Maroon charges a Solar Beam to just shoot the ferals for no reason?>>5302041Astor makes his way across, not having to worry too much.

Rolled 2 (1d20)"Let me try something!"Astor uses Whirlwind to try and clean the air a bit
Rolled 1 (1d20)Astor vibes meanwhile (Also roll test)
>>5302065>Astor failed the vibe check
>>5302057Maroon takes aim and opens fire at one of the Gastrodons! The feral is utterly obliterated by the roaring laser as it cleaves through the salty air and rock, annihilating the sea-slug as if it was a blinding and holy judgment! Nothing of the creature remains, disintegrated and despawned.+50EXP to Maroon.>>5302058Castform makes it across, drunk on dangerous salinity levels.>>5302060>>5302059Kaku and Charles make it across, with Charles only suffering minor salt burns! -42HP. It's not that bad, but it sure does itch and sting. Charles has -30HP from his max pool for the remainder of this mission.>>5302062Astor kicks up a cloud of salt into the air. The ferals dart away from it, knowledgeable of what happens to those who mess with salt.>>5302065Astor chokes on the salt-cloud. He loses -50HP from his max pool for the remainder of this mission.

>>5302075>>5302080Charles will lose another -50HP for helping Maroon cross, which if he does, they both cross successfully, although the tip of Maroon's tail lands in the water and shrivels up.>>5302079Castform makes the water electric and salty. Fascinating. Now you can get two different kinds of paralyzation.>>5302074Astor just blows the cloud to hit Maroon. Astor receives another -30HP from his max pool from the salt-cloud.Maroon receives -30HP from his max pool from the salt-cloud.>>5302087Escavalier notices he can just float across if he stays on the lips of where the pools form their pockets. Best not to dawdle, or else his floating ability might strangely fail him for whatever reason.

>>5302099"I'm alright! Are you?" Maroon checks Charles to make sure he's healthy and safe.
>>5302093You hear the noise of water being flushed or falling down a drain. The Gastrodon looks relatively parched but is otherwise fine.>>5302094Escavalier floats across without any issues. He has rejoined the rest of the party.>>5302098Astor's wings freeze up from all the salt they've been in and he is stuck with them flapping in an open position. He looks like a strange chicken.Up ahead of you is a branching path. One goes left, and the other goes right. Your choices:>Go left>Go right>What does the map say?
>>5302099"Don't overexert yourself, man. It's salty here," Citrine says, encrusted in salt.>>5302105>What does the map say?...Citrine doesn't actually wonder this. He's just hanging around.

>>5302106>>5302108>>5302111>>5302113The unfolded origami Pidgey notes that the correct path is to the right. It specifically warns not to go on any left paths and to always look up.>>5302112Everyone feels a strange sense of foreboding as they watch the bird rush into the unknown they were cautioned not to go into.
>>5302106"Thank you for your concern Citrine. I'll try and be more careful."
>>5302121Astor keeps running, may you see him again one day
>>5302121"Oh no, Astor! Anyways... It's to the right." Kaku goes to the right.
>>5302121>>5302112"ASTOR WAIT! DON'T GO DOWN THE LEFT PAAAAAATH!"
>>5302121Maroon follows the maps instructions, making sure to stay close with Charles.

>>5302116"...Who is this others?"
>>5302150"...Kaku, Maroon, and Astor."
Rolled 3 (1d6)>>5302135>>5302136As Astor is dragged away to the safer path by his sensible guild members, they approach the end of the cave to find a brine pool that appears to glitter with twinkling blue lights. Suddenly, somehow, hidden between the folds of the mostly unfolded Pidgey, a strange Wonder Orb tumbles out and rolls into the middle.It flashes with a pulse of light and vanishes, taking exactly a dozen water stones and leaving behind however many the dice rolls for. A second note falls out of the origami Pidgey.>Muahahaha! Very appreciated, loyal evildoers!!!Items:+300EXP+500PLoot:(Claim one Water Stone from however many it rolls).Area unlocked: [Left Path] Lower Brine CaveYou feel as if something ominous lurks in the lower darkness of this Mystery Dungeon.

Rolled 19 (1d20)>>5302160". . . That's not good." He turns to Kaku, tucking away his water storm. "Let's go!" Maroon uses Agility and his extreme speed to run out of cave.
>>5302168"Yup, yup..."
>>5302172"...oh, shit. We DO need to get moving. I wasn't expecting him to somehow take them... I thought we were bringing them."Citrine uses Gyro Ball to follow out of the dungeon quickly.
>>5302168>>5302173>Charles follows his friends
A Flapple child has happened upon the guild, telling of an emergency in Treasure Town. Of what nature? Find out now...Chapter 27: Emergency Egression
>>5304701>Sable arrives
>>5304701"What's going on?!" Maroon shouts.
>>5304701"I have no idea what's going on, or why Maroon and Kaku's running!"*Cava opens the door.
>>5304701Astor spawns
>>5304701>>5304703>Charles arrives with Castform and Sable"We're here!"
Approaching the crossroads, you can see... Wigglytuff's job and outlaw request boards buried in the ground, along with Croagunk's Swap Shop. Also... The front half of Xatu's Appraisal? There's nobody to be seen, but you can see smoke rising from the direction of Town...
>>5304701"Wow." Vee says simply.

>>5304709Kaku falls from the sky like some kind of meta masked borb. "Uh-oh"
>>5304709No... Nononononono, please no...>Sable remembers his Dreamcatcher dream
>>5304709"What happened! Why is that sign sinking in the ground?"
>>5304701Citrine rolls into town and stops, scanning around."Do we check the jail?" he asks. "Doppler might have pulled something."
>>5304717"Eh, maybe the rapture started and Wiggly is dead? It's a win win"
>>5304717"Clearly, it fell from the sky! But I don't think that's what we should be concerned about." Kaku points to the town.
>>5304718"Oh no...">>5304720"Agreed! Let's hope we're not too late!"
Desire Below (calm), Fire Emblem Fateshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxoXOPHynt0 Stepping into Treasure Town, you find yourselves in near imparsible chaos! Mounds of displaced stones and walls stand higher than the sparse intact buildings, townsfolk stumble past you all by the droves, with aggressive feral pokemon giving chase and attacking many of them. Remnants of torn apart buildings line the horizon of your field of view, and the odd Wigglytuff’s Guild member can be seen trying to guide noncombatants to safety. It’s going mostly well, but you can barely make out a few spots where nobody is around to help…>Oeuse’s DaycareA few feral pokemon are menacing Oeuse’s daily charges. She’s doing her best to keep them at bay with thunder waves, but this scenario seems more than a little out of her depth.>Sharpedo Bluff The shifting terrain has partially buried the scenic ridge into the ground inland. Racha is standing outside, struggling to dig through it…>Kecleon Bros shopThe Brothers are unconscious, with a purple haze wafting into the sky around their store. Three pokemon can just barely be seen filling comically large sacks with items and other fare.>Kangaskhan StorageKangaskan can be seen ineffectually throwing rocks and spikes up at a Skarmory above her building.

You can't even find the fountain, but stones definitely a part of it are strewn everywhere...>Kangaskhan StorageMistral and Bind arrive in Kangaskhan storage, but Skarmory doesn't like the look of the new combatants. It begins to fly up from the building! It's planning to leave!>Kecleon ShopThey're a Skuntank, Golbat, and Weezing. "Chaw-haw-HAW! Rescues AND loot! Today's a good day indeed!""Kekekekeh. Check it out boss, we've got company." The Golbat backs away, while Skuntank and Weezing line up together in front of you. They're preparing something...Before anyone can get to work however, an explosion rings out from the center of town! A gargantuan pillar of white rises up before swinging down and crushing and completely splintering a headhouse to nothing before planting itself in the ground! A monolith of a creature rises up slowly and laborously before screaming to the whole town:"HUMANS OF GRASS CONTINENT. UNAUTHORIZED TEMPORAL ACTIVITY HAS BEEN DETECTED. YOUR LIVES END IN 5 TURNS. He can be engaged with at any time if you so desire, but that will leave the townsfolk unprotected.If you choose not to engage with him, He will have much more health when Slow Start ends.

>>5305004"We're holding it off, aren't we?!"(Maroon gets the Quick Orb buff too, next turn, I believe, since we're in the same area. Should apply for the second and last turn, next turn.)
>>5305010Maroon stares at Citrine like he's gone insane- but then again it was Citrine, the rock and guardian of the group. Of course he would try to stop a fucking god, and so would Maroon.He nods. "Yeah! Yeah we are! We're going to topple this giant!" Maroon roars!
>>5304937
>Oeuse’s DaycareAs you rush over to the Daycare, you spot its strangely elevated position from the rest of the town. As if a plate had been ripped and pushed up, there's no easy way up or down! The Chansey-shaped building is blown out on its side and you see a rowdy level of commotion from even your disadvantaged spot.It's a feral Seviper, Machamp, and Obstagoon harassing the pokemon up there! You're not sure which one of them is paralyzed, but you know one of them isn't actively fighting. Time is of the essence, however. You can hear Ouese getting exhausted.

>>5305043"Alrighty!" Vee prepares a Wish!

>Sharpedo BluffSable, Ymir, and Kaku find the Monferno first, attempting to punch the rocks apart. They can hear a few weak cries from inside the structure's "jaws." A problem, considering there's no visible way out, and the rocks look rather sharp. Erika's partner looks rather beat up, too. Monferno looks bruised and nearly defeated, clutching one of his free hands to his stomach. His fists are in no better condition, either, bleeding profusely as he fumbles with a bag in between his assault. A smearing of Oran berries on his injuries and he's continuing despite it all. Somehow he hasn't fainted yet!

Rolled 13, 4 = 17 (2d20)>>5307255>exp"That's... damnit." Mistral stands up straight. "Treasure Town got struck by a living disaster... Can they recover from this?">>5307257"He did, but I'm pretty sure pokemon here had bigger problems to deal with than trying to deliberate a message from someone actively trying to kill you." He pauses. "...At least someone trying to cause severe problems."
>>5307265Maroon is swaying, unsteady on his own feet as he writes something in print rune as best he can with his mouth, although it helps that it's only a few symbols."I'm sending a message to Dialga. . . Who else could've known about our activity?"On Regigigas' marble skin, in big, charcoal is a familar headpiece and footprint.Defiance. Renegade. Human.
>>5307275>Charles follows Vee, taking a Gigas shard if any more are available
>>5307278"YMIIIIR, CAN YOU WASH IT OFF?! I really hope the townsfolk don't see this..."
>>5307280Maroon turns to Cava. "Esca. . . They don't know what a human footprint looks like. They've never seen it. The only 'mon who knows what this means is the one who is meant to read it."
>>5307282"You could have just done it in English..."
Weezing stares in abject terror, having stopped lugging around his teammates and rescues in their big sack."Wh-whoa-ho! Wh-what is all this about? Why's Treasure Town a mystery dungeon? Boss... Our loot! Gack!" He begins rambling and panicking faster and faster as he tries to drag away from all the damaged structures and ferals.
>>5307285"OH, SHIT! TIME LOOP!!"
>>5307285>Sable looks up from wiping away the "human" part of Maroon's wannabe-edgelord manifestoWait, is that why I don't recognize this place anymore? I just thought it got wrecked.Also. Wheezing, have you seen any Lopunnies around?
>>5307285this is going to take a long... long time to fix.>castform has begun looking for the evacuees
>>5307285(NC)*Cava does the gagnam style on Regigigas' body.(Canon)"Oh yeah, Timeloop. WAIT WHAT? I need to door the townsfolk outta here!"
>>5307280"I'm fine with the message."
>>5307284Maroon rewrites his message and the same in English beneath it."Leave it alone, Sableye. We've got to go anyways."Maroon grabs Sableye and begins running out of town with the rest of his friends.
Rolled 14 (1d20)>>5307286"T-time loop?! Vee! We need to hurry! Look for Bind!">Looking for Rabbit friend!
>>5307295Not a chance, clown-o the oblivious! Besides, I have something else to do first.>Sable wipes away the new messages after shrugging off unwanted advances by the homosexual canine
>>5307294"Yeah, too late to fix it anyway. Are there any other townsfolk in Treasure Town?!"*Cava opens the door.
"Get everyone to the plaza! I have a great idea!"Astor has no clue avout what he's going to do, but if he pulls it out, it will be based
>>5307299"Astor, I'd rather we just door!"
Rolled 20 (1d20)>>5307299"We need to get outta here! Regigigas is about to get up again!"Citrine tries to help Weezing get outta town. Probably minus the stolen goods. He'll haggle it out with him.
Maroon collects his Heavy Horn and the Giga Shards left over from their fierce assault before hobbling out of Treasure Town and the impending time loop."Human Defiance. . . I know you can hear me, Dialga. Nothing you send can stop it. . ." He mutters to himself.
Rolled 18 (1d20)>>5307304"What about we bring everyone to the plaza so you don't have to keep the portal for long?"Astor rushes to look for civilians (And some loot)
>>5307304"I agree with that sentiment!" Kaku looks for townies to save. "I did say we'd save Flapple's friends..."
Rolled 15 (1d20)>>5307296"I'll help ya Charles! He couldn't have gotten far right?"*Ymir aida in the search for Bind*
>>5307318"Thank you, and I hope not! We can't leave him behind!"
Rolled 4 (1d20)>>5307289(forgot roll)
>>5307307*Cava is standing with the door wide open.
>>5307289Seems like everyone either left or is tucked into Team Skull's huge loot sack. Even the Kecleon Bros!>>5307296>>5307287Bind is... nowhere to be seen.>>5307298The Door opens to just outside treasure town, and Citrine and Scav rushes a confused Weezing et al through it, the road leading towards Treasure Town on the other side, where a significant number of pokemon have stopped to rest. Wigglytuff and his guild members are struggling to count and manage everyone with magnezone.All but Citrine and Scav stay behind to loot and rescue. They don't find anyone, but they do find a broken pair of blackglasses (defunct), a Close Combat TM, and a sitrus berry.A few minutes later, they witness...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r43-iirtQocA flash of light, in which the ground and a few buildings are restored, but the town is still in disarray with ferals running everywhere, now with no civillians to attack. From the distance, even those who left can see the contour of regigigas's still fallen body, wrapped in a peculiar blue bubble. It's still out cold, but you can kinda make out a few near invisible warped shapes flying around the titan, presumablly preserving this barrier.
>>5307327>>5307328"...So they had citizens in there?!"Citrine takes the Sitrus Berry.
>>5307328"Okay, I think this is everyone! Wigs, Magnezone, Team Skull's here with a majority of the townsfolk!"
>>5307328"Oh this is not good... We need to leave. Now"
>>5307328What the...>Sable goes to get a closer look with his keen eyes
>>5307330Retcon the Sitrus Berry. I misread.
>>5307328"What's going on over there?"
>>5307332"I'm not leaving without Bind. You can go if you want. I'm gonna find my friend and super-awesome team leader! Hehe!"
>>5307328"Fascinating... What even are... those things?"
>>5307337"I would never leave without him!">Charles looks worried"But...I can't see or hear him anywhere!"
>>5307337Right with ya Vee! Mates don't leave mates behind."
Rolled 18 (1d20)>>5307328>castform looks at the now empty treasure town...this isn't going to be easy to get used to. if even a populated town like this could be caught in a loop... where even is safe?>he's worried, what happens if this deal occours closer to home? what if sableye's hometown becomes a mystery dungeon, or maroon's place? or the HQ itself?I...>>5307337right, bind still needs finding. let's get him safe then worry about things>cast looks for bind
Rolled 4 (1d20)Astor uses predator senses to find Bind
>>5307331"But why did they even HAVE the townsfolk?!?"
>>5307346"They were rescuing them? They're an exploration team too ya know. Can't judge a book by its cover!"
Rolled 11 (1d20)>>5307328>>5307337>>5307340"Maybe you just aren't looking hard enough! He's probably somewhere."Vee tries to shoot a flare into the sky using Swift!He's trying to attract Bind's attention!(+2 to roll)
>>5307348"They put them in a sack!"
Rolled 3 (1d20)>>5307352>>5307328"...">Charles looks downtrodden>He searches again
>>5307328>castform also takes the blackglasses. even if they're broken. and has begun wearing them>he gave these to xatu, they're a memento for the town
>>5307354"Yeah? They're part of WIGGLYTUFF'S guild. You think it's that easy to just kidnap anyone? Also, why would they even need to kidnap them in the first place? Thieves aren't the same as kidnappers."
>>5307358>>5307354"Anyway, should I just keep the door open for our guildmates?"
>>5307358>>5307354"Yeah! Anyone who calls themselves Team Skull is trustworthy. Why do you have to be so cynic, Citrine?"
Rolled 2 (1d6)>>5307328Rolling to spawn(road to treasure town)
>>5307333>>5307336>>5307339They look mostly like different letters, with circular bulges in random points.>>5307341>>5307337>>5307345>>5307344Well, there was a heavy trail of footprints leading north and out of town, but they're gone now...Vee's stars shine brilliantly in the midday sky, but minutes later, nobody comes.>>5307354"Woah-ho! We're not all bad. Some of these little tykes got trapped in the chaos. we thought we'd do a little charity work while we loot. It's a win-win! We're so smart!"Chatot waddles over and looks in the bag, consulting a short list of missing persons before squaking. "Squak-awk?! This is everyone-" except Team Pokepals, he mutters. "...There's no way you did this on your own, Weezing. And what's with all these items?"
>>5307358Mistral walks up to Escavalier and whispers to him. "They did steal from Team Pokepals, bullied them, lied to authorities, and attacked the duo whenever it was beneficial to them." He looks around to make sure no one is peeping in. "They're not upstanding folks, Escavalier."
