>>14439>>17531"That's big, alright. Shame we happened to miss that one. We're working with other agencies to try and flush them out."
Looks like you're reaching the tower soon.
>>17542"Maybe unlike some of us, I didn't have much of a choice."
Her mood sours.
>>17543"Oh? And what's your plan?"
No.18844
>>18843"Maybe it likes you? Try putting your arm out, maybe it'll rest on it, since it doesn't seem to want to attack." I say as I look at it curiously.
No.18845
>>18843"Yup, looks like it," I respond, unable to wipe the grin off my face. "I'm really proud of them."
Now, let's get them some of those berries we harvested the other day. They've earned a treat, and then some.
"Thanks for your help out there. Having a fire-type backing us up really helped keep things from getting too bad."
No.18846
Sheets updated, distribute stats and rearrange moves
>>18844She does that. The Shedinja slowly rests on it.
"Oh… I remember! They say a Shedinja is what's left after a Nincada evolves into a Ninjask. The shell it moults takes a life on its own and wanders. Maybe it belonged to one of the Ninjasks before? Usually they wander around looking after Nincada, but maybe this one wants something different.
>>18845"No problem! if you want one, I'm sure the flame region has plenty for you to choose from? They've also got all the big factories, if you want to make your bike cooler."
No.18847
>>18846"We'll, we were the ones who fought it off originally. Maybe it wants to join up with you? It's a common enough story, prove your stronger and you get a follower."
No.18848
>>18847"Right then! Let's see if this works…"
She draws the Shedinja into a Poke ball. It doesn't resist. The click is sounded before she lets it out again. It's very expressionless but it goes back to resting on her arm.
No.18849
>>18846"Making my bike cooler? That sounds awesome! We'll have to stop by after we're done with the south."
Those are thoughts for later though. Right now, Chica and Lyle have center stage. I focus on making sure they're rested and healing after that fight, especially Chica. She took some nasty hits there.
No.18850
>>18849Luckily, Chica can't be normally poisoned, since she's a poison type herself. But all of you are tired, it's still the middle of the night. Maybe you should return to bed?
No.18851
>>18848"Well, that was a much easier capture than most. Congratulations Riss, what are you going to name Shedinja?"
No.18852
>>18851"No idea. I'll think this over later…"
she looks pretty tired. So are you, it's still nighttime.
No.18853
>>18850Sounds like a plan. Let's get some rest now.
Thanks for running. No.18854
>>18853Roll to see if you can have some bettr dreams.
No.18855
>>18852>>18854"Alright, maybe some sleep will make it easier."
Dream an '1d20'

After great news like that, how would I not be able to sleep well?
Roll #1 20 = 20 No.18857
>>18855>>18856Your rest in the finest beach resort attended to by beautiful beach babes is interrupted when a villain steals your treasure! You have to pursue him on a mad race across the sea! Lyle is pulling your tony boat at insane speeds while you hang on. Is that even Lyle? He's bigger, more lithe than what he just evolved into. On the boat there's Zoro, Pillow and Chica, but all of them are bigger and look way stronger. And there are two more new friends you haven't met yet, but if you concentrate you can probably decide what they are. Villain man leads you to his secret island, where you skilfully sneak in and disassemble his traps and guards! The island, it turns out, stores all the treasure he's taken over the years, and now it's yours!
>>18855You're riding across plains on Dynamo. Quetz flies overhead, carrying a storm with him! An army as facing you. They're in your way to your quest for conquest. You feel powerful enough to take all of them on and claim the throne…

No.18990
>>18989Fairies have all kinds of tricks.
I'll cheer for the Azumarill. '1d20' cheer quality
Roll #1 14 = 14 No.18991
>>18990In a show of brute strength, the Azumarill tackles the Magneton. It grabs the steel body a,d wrestles it into the ground, finishing with a devastating flurry of punches. Is this a Superpower attack?
No.18992
>>18991I gasp in amazement. "Whoa, I knew it wasn't as weak as it looked but that.."
No.18993
>>18992some Marill are born with the ability Huge Power. They aren't as resistant to changing climates as other Marill, but they make up for it by having what should be their thick layers of fat be tough muscle instead. Your Azurill is the same!
Your Azurill happily cheers. Though the Azumarillis tired after the attack, it perks up, encouraged.
The opposing trainer sends out a Jolteon! it looks tired, but it's faster than the Azumarill. One attack is all it needs…
No.18994
>>18993I wonder if this is just a lucky sign or if they could be related!
"I wonder if it will be okay.."
No.18995
>>18994"Oh, no need to worry."
The Azumarill charges forward, like riding a jet! Before the Jolteon can even react, it's knocked down. Despite its small limbs and bulk, Azumarill can be deceptively fast if they use Aqua Jet.
Your Azurill starts trying to imitate it. It hops out of your arms to tackle a nearby rubber barrier. The Azumarill, now victorious in battle, looks at your Azurill and seems to be tutoring it!
Pls link sheet No.18997
>>18995"Whoa! Look at that.. I owe you a thanks Azumarill."
I smile at it at look up at its trainer to see how they react.
No.18998
>>18997Its trainer is letting the Azumarill do its thing. He sends out a Vibrava to continue the fight against an opposing Gloom.
The Azumarill lets Azurill try tackling it a few times. Seems like your Azurill has picked up a few tips!
No.18999
>>18998"Wow, you are tough
and bright. I need a strong nickname for you!" I nod impressed.
No.19000
>>18999You'll have plenty of time to think about that along the way. With the battle concluded, Azumarill and its trainer go away to rest. Other trainers are stepping up to fight, or you could keep walking around the train.
No.19001
>>19000I don't really feel like fighting, so I'll keep walking around the train, its not everyday I get to ride one after all.
No.19002
>>19001Out the windows you can see the snow-peaked mountains. only those further away though, the ones nearer aren't cold enough since you're headed south. Of course, above all of them is the same Duality Tower you visited. Huh, it's like you can see it through the walls of the train carriage. Must be your imagination.
No.19003
>>19002These are externally clean windows.
"Lily, what do you think of this?" I hold up grovyle's pokeball so she can see better.
No.19004
>>19003Lily doesn't have to say much to you. It's something the two of you share, a sort of deep bond so much that there's little need for words.
Lily feels a sense of wonder from looking at the vast landscapes. You can feel that she wants to explore them. She wants to explore what their branches feel like, sleeping under the vast trees and feeling the taste of rain from different clouds. Different flavours of sunlight are also on the list. She turns every now and then to look at the tower, a symbol of safety and stability. As long as it's there, everything will be alright.
No.19005
>>19004Is the tower really all that important.. I did see that pokemon there..
"..I want to know all about it too, and after this badge, we can even get missions to go out there."
Somehow saying it, makes it feel more real, like Its a sure thing.
No.19006
>>19005With those words spoken to seal that conviction, you feel more determined than ever. At least, until you feel someone bump into you, knocking you over.
"Oh no, I'm sorry? Are you okay?"
Another girl bumped into you, knocking you over. She's holding her hand out to help you up. The Happiny by her side does the same, though it's of little use.
No.19007
>>19006"I'm fine! A little bump like that wouldn't hurt me." I grin, but accept her hand up. "Did that Happiny hatch recently?"
No.19008
>>19007You get to take a look at her. She's dressed ordinarily, her blonde hair styled in a simple, unremarkable fashion. She's really ordinary looking.
"I'm glad! And, well, I don't think so… we found each other a while ago. She's my first pokemon, see? I'm Zoe, how about you?"
No.19009
>>19008Nod a few times. "I'm Amber, and I'm Pokemon Ranger! I'm training hard to be the best one so I can always protect pokemon and people."
No.19010
>>19009"Huh, that's pretty cool!"
She takes a look at Lily's pokeball that you're holding.
"Nice Grovyle! I'm guessing you're from the Evergreen? Actually, you feeling hungry yet? It's almost dinnertime.."
No.19011
>>19010"Is it that late already? I swear I just ate lunch." I giggle a bit. "And you're right. I guess that's common for Rangers, huh?"
No.19012
>>19011"Nah. Rangers come from all over, they need people who know different parts of the land, right?"
She heads right for the meal carriage, taking a seat and inviting you to join her.
"Menu today seems to be from the islands. Lots of fish."
No.19013
>>19012"Well,
I know that, but people instantly know I'm from evergreen whenever I tell them I'm a Ranger.. I thought for sure that's what was giving me away.." I ponder as we walk to the meal carriage. "And I'll just have a salad, but Lily might want to try a fish."
No.19014
>>19013"Well… you have that feeling about you, you know what I mean? And since that place is your home, you carry that… that aura around with you. You like it at home?"
You hand off your orders to the serving staff and wait.
No.19015
>>19014"Of course I like home, its got lots of trees to climb, hills to roll down, its a great place to grow up.. but then again, I like it in the city, and those snowy mountains look interesting, and I have always wanted to see the beach."
"Where are you from?"
No.19016
>>19015"All those places sound nice. It's also kind of why I'm exploring!"
She didn't answer your question.
"Oh, look! Here's our courses!"
Your… salad is mostly seaweed, served sprinkled with spices and on a bed of sauces. She got herself a buttered Krabby to share with her Happiny. Lily comes out to eagerly look at the sir-fried Magikarp.
No.19017
>>19016Seaweed is probably tasty, eat up. Actually I should have gotten food for my whole team, I will call over the waiter again. "Actually can I get a few more things.." A fish for vulpix, something metal for aron, warm milk for the baby mouse, a battery for joltik, and.. do gligar even eat fish? I'll let her decide by pointing at the menu.
"So, you say you're exploring? Have you been anywhere interesting yet?"
No.19018
>>19017It tastes different, that's for sure. It's packed with way more nutrients than land food, and the stronger feeling it has on your tongue proves it.
The waiter nods and goes off to look around. You remember in the news that standard nutrient solutions and blocks for different Pokemon types are under development… would you use those?
"Kind of. I've been around the Rising City, and the small towns around. I.. I wasn't sure where to start, so I just picked at random. Hey, you ordering for the rest of your Pokemon? Great idea!"
She releases a Flabebe and a Bagon, who look at the menu together and call for their own.
The table isn't big enough for everyone's Pokemon, so some take the floor. Azurill claims your lap.
No.19020
>>19018If the pokemon like it, I don't see why not.
"Have you done much pokemon battling? And, uh, it just seems a little rude to exclude them."
Since Azuril is right here, I'll feed her the milk.
No.19021
>>19020"Some. Just a little… I'm looking to do way more."
Azurill happily gulps up the milk. She should be weaned soon…
"But not today. I'm tired ,and I want to explore tomorrow. I'll be headed to bed shortly after this. you? Stopping off at Dervor Town?"
No.19022
>>19021"Yea, I'm not in the mood for a battle myself, but there is the battle cart if we have time before you then."
"I went to the duality tower, it was really a unique experience, I even got to draw on the wall!"
No.19023
>>19022"Cool! I climbed once. It's a… a very unique place."
She yawns. A full belly is making you sleepy, too.
"I think that's it for me today. Maybe I'll see you tomorrow. Have fun!"
She ups and leaves. will you retire, too?
No.19024
>>19023I stay up late reading about about bug type pokemon from my booklet, because I'm too excited about the gym.
No.19025
>>19024It'll take while for the contents to get to your head.
