OP is late again editionArchive: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Pokemon%20QuestTwitter: https://twitter.com/GobbleQMPastebin: http://pastebin.com/tSNKt0WmGeneral rules: Voting is active for the first 5 minutes. If there's a tie, then the next post acts as the tiebreaker. Non-contradictory votes will be combine to the best of my ability. Even if I forget to say it, write-ins are always welcome. Rolls are infrequent, but unless otherwise stated it's the best of three when they come up. Rolling high is of course good.About TMs: I meant to get into this last night. I just wasn’t able to come up with a way to address them that didn’t come out stupid, borderline abusive, or inconsistent. Instead of using TMs, Pokemon can learn those moves by (usually) difficult training. The difficulty depends on the Pokemon, it’s experience, and it’s personality, and most importantly your choices in how to train.The same goes for held items. I just wasn't able to find a way to make it work in a way that fit with the universe. With proper training, a Pokemon may be able to mimic the affects of some of the held items in the game as a trick or gimmick. This probably won't come up all that much.I feel like both of these make for more chances to be creative with your Pokemon and their training, and get into interesting scenarios. If anyone has any feedback on anything I've said, I'm more than open to ideas or alternatives.
It’s time to hit the road once more. You’re eager to get to town, but you know that the odds of finding a trainer on the way are pretty good, and a little practice and hopefully some more money would be great.Usually when you get closer to a town, the trees should be more sparse. It’s the opposite here. The fertile ground and temperate weather combine to create a thick forest.Despite this, you’re still able to spot a small group ahead. Even as you have to squint to see them in the distance through the trees, you can tell they’re trainers. Before you’re able to do much else, they call out to your party, and run over to catch up.They introduce themselves, Jacob and Lonny. Jacob is older, about your age. He’s clearly got a good amount of experience. Lonny is younger, and doesn’t quite look sure of himself. He still has look of a trainer though.>Challenge Jacob>Challenge Lonny>Something else.
>>29442683>D-D-D-DOUBLE BATTLE!It's hybbedong.
>>29442706Seconding.
>>29442683Double battle lets go
>>29442683>>29442706YESDOUBLE BATTLE
>>29442683Double battle time, Vance is our second.Sorry Robin, there's no way your Eevee and Geodude are powerful enough to stake money on.
Sage and hide
>>29442683>Challenge LonnyIf we can beat him without hurting we can challenge his big bro.what the fuck with these new captchas? like the old ones weren't annoying enough already.now i cant post with less than three tries.
>>29442785you wot m8?>>29442786Smell ya later!>>29442801What new captchas? /g/ was bitching about it a while ago but I've never seen them.
>>29442785Have you even seen her battle?
>>29442801>ENDS SOON: 4chan Passes are on sale for the holidays!I feel like the captchas are worse on purpose to make this offer more appealing.Irritating, but I still forked over the money for it.
>>29442871Have you even seen him battle?
>>29442632In time for thread?YESSS
>>29442706It's hybbedong.I don't know why I laughed so hard at thatYou haven't had a double battle yet. That could be interesting. You float the idea to the two brothers. They both look at each other, then nod in confident agreement."OK!" Says Jacob, the older one. "Let's do one Pokemon each."Sounds fine, you suppose.Not it's just a matter of deciding who will be your second. You look back at both Vance and Robin. Neither of them volunteers or makes any motion to exclude themselves.>Ask Robin>Ask Vance>Something else.
>>29442871Maybe she's actually pretty solid. She said she has trained and studied a lot -- she IS the daughter of a gym leader...
>>29442918>Ask Robin
>>29442918>Ask RobinWhy is this even a question.
>>29442918>>Ask Robingeodude- Zappy dan team
>Ask Robin>set a limitThis isn't about victory. Friendly match here with low stakes.
>>29442918>Ask for a volunteer.>If neither volunteers even after that, ask Robin.>If refuse, force Vance.
>>29442918it's time to rock, Robin.Rocking Robin. Hah.
>>29442955Yeah, we definitely need to make the bet amount
>>29442918Ask RobinIf she can show that Evee can be strong without being a fire type, then maybe her dad will accept it?
>>29442918>Ask VanceWe saw him punching trees with his machop, he says hes been working hard to perfect pokemon fighting styles. His pokemon have got to be hardcore.Robin on the other hand, has an untrained Geodude, and a fucking Eevee. No matter how much training she gave that Eevee before we met her, I will always consider those things housepets.>>29442955Who the hell wants low stakes??!!Let's make some fucking money.
>>29442951Personally, I think sending out Destiny and then, if needed, Devon would be good. They are going to be our main force for the upcoming gym and I want to better understand their capabilities. If they can't handle some scrub trainers then handling a whole gym is going to be tough unless the challenge is prorated based on how many badges we have (that's an important thing to know, Gobble). We should test out Destiny's attacks. I hope she knows watergun pretty well. She seems to have Happy Bubbles down pat.
>>29443005>Who the hell wants low stakes??!!People who aren't dumb enough to risk a lot betting on something they have little experience with
>>29442820>What new captchas?This shit.
>>29442955We have literally nothing to lose.Robin might, but we can just argue that we took the challenge, so we should pay up.All of what, 3 pokemoneys?
>>29443005You make money from beating gym leaders and gym bunniesIts low stakes because we don't want to put pressure on robin
>>29443039You mean people with no faith in themselves and their pokemon.The road to the top is not for the feint of heart.We're gonna be the very best, like no one ever was. We should act like it.
This is just a public service announcement to tell you to ARCHIVE YOUR THREADS EARLY because the misarchivist is out and about and terrorizing Quest Threads.Thank you, and goodnight.
>>29443108There's a difference between being knowing your inexperienced and not having faith in yourself. We don't have to be an idiot to be the best
>>29443108You realize that you get a ton of money from beating the gym leader right?We don't need to waste time on money, especially since we're going to fuck the Fire gym's shit up.
>>29443108Making it to the top is about having all the qualities of a Champ. Rashness, if it even IS one, is just one of many. We have to know our limits and be smart or we're going nowhere.Think back to the Corsola incident. Without our companions we could be dead...>>29443032>happy bubbles<Made me think of pic related
>>29443171You know what's better than a ton of money?A ton of money AND SOME MORE MONEY ON TOP!
>>29443212We don't need to get greedy though.Plus we don't really have the dosh to bet
>>29443142He needs a better name. One he won't like, because fuck him.Let's call him the... I can't think of anything...>>29443171If you think we can "fuck the Fire gym's shit up", that implies you think we can beat a gym leader. If we can beat a GYM LEADER, than we might as well drain as much money from these scrubs as possible.>>29443212This guy knows whats up.
You put your hands on your hips, and post with your head high and your chest out. "What do you say Robin, want to show these guys a thing or two?"Robin is a bit distracted. She's in her own little world right now. "Oh huh? Me?" She sees the look of determination in your eyes "Oh yeah. Alright!"Good!"Oh wait! Hold on a second!" Robin quick takes out her new Geodude, and begins to treat it with a potion. "He hasn't been to a Pokemon center since I caught him," she offers to you.Lonny looks like he's saying something like 'oh cool! A Geodude!', but Jacob looks a little offended.You whisper over to her. "Hey Robin, did you flip him the bird or something when I wasn't looking?" "What? I didn't do-" She looks at him. He's giving her the stink-eye something fierce. "Oh. I know what I did." Robin walks over to Jacob and pulls him aside for a second. After a minute, she comes back to you.Robin see's that you're not sure what's going on. "It’s traditional for both trainers to throw out their Pokemon at the same time to avoid anybody getting an unfair advantage. Depending on the relationship though, it’s not always the case. If there’s a clear large gap in experience or power, then it’s not an insult for a veteran trainer to release their Pokemon first. Most gym leaders release theirs first to any new challengers. Jacob thought I was insulting him as a trainer by revealing Geodude."There's a lot of pride involved in Pokemon it seems.Nobody has established a bet yet. By default, it's half your money. You have a decent wad of stolen cash, but you have no money left in your card>Leave it be, start the fight>Suggest a large bet>Suggest a small bet>Something else.
>>29443237>than we might as well drain as much money from these scrubs as possible.We're beyond the "sociopath" thing now.
>>29443250>>Suggest a small betNo being retards
>>29443250>>Suggest a small bet"I'm on a budget."
>>29443250Suggest a small bet.
>>29443237Eh, at this point, "we can beat a gym leader" is a wholly unwarranted conclusion. We beat one scrub with a type advantage over his lone Pokemon. I'd say keep the bet small, and if we can repeat the success, we'll have a much better idea if we have any chance in the gym.
>>29443250>Suggest a small bet
>>29443227They don't know that.>>29443270Learn2 roguishness, both of you. We don't have to be a sociopath to want to make some money. Was Han Solo a sociopath?>>29443250>Suggest a large betno being pussys
>>29443227>We don't need to get greedy though.Are we even playing the same quest here?>Plus we don't really have the dosh to betThe bet is 'half the money you have'. We do not need to disclose the fact that we are flat broke beforehand.>>29443250>Leave it be, start the fightABUSE THE SYSTEM LEST IT ABUSE YOU
>>29443250>Leave it be, start the fightLet's not fleece the kid here. The older brother, sure.
>Suggest a small betDoes stolen cash even count. I say yes.
>>29443314>Han Solo a sociopath?before or after the edits?
>>29443250Suggest a small bet>Pokemon Dueling 101: A guide to etiquetteI really like what you did there, Gobble. Is that original?
>>29443250>Suggest a small bet>>29443316Yeah, but is Robin broke? If it were a singles battle, I'd agree with you, but I want to judge our abilities vs. a non-scrub before we start making large bets.
>>29443324If it's not on the card, they can't see it.
>>29443316>>29443314>We do not need to disclose the fact that we are flat broke beforehand.Its obvious and we do need to buy things like a tent and a sleeping bag. If we lose we won't have money for those thingsWhat is a contingency plan
>>29443387My contingency plan is mooching off Robin.It's a good plan.
>>29443387We have robins tent.We might need a sleeping bag for two though~
>>29443387Our card has no money on it. Half of nothing is still nothing.
>>29443371>>29443419>>29443429Even if Robin isn't broke, its an incredibly dick move to make her pay out half or a large portion of her moneyWe're trying to get her to like us
>>29443353He was wholly justified in shooting Greedo and you know it.>>29443358It doesn't have to be original, it's obvious. So people can't be like "Oh, you're using Geodude? Let me slowly go through my library until I find something that will kick it's specific ass.">>29443387We have like zero fucking money. If they take 90% of our money, we will have relatively the same amount of money.>>29443419>>29443448It's a shame to risk Robin's money, but I WANTED VANCE ON MY SIDE FOR THIS REASON, SHIT.Don't know him enough to care about his money.
>>29443448The solution to that is simple: don't lose.
>>29443463That's why we're doing a small bet, man.If we lose, we pay with the stolen cash. Simple.
>>29443324Nobody besides you knows you have the stolen money. Ethically and according to the rules you'd have to use it to pay up if you lost, but trainers don't usually have cash on hand. You'll still look like a total dick though>>29443358>I really like what you did there, Gobble. Is that original?I think so, but it's possible I may have read someone else s idea and thought it was my own.
>>29443448Yeah, I wasn't disagreeing. I just don't think we need to buy a tent, and hopefully won't need to in the future
>>29443434Robins in the match too moron. If we don't have it then she'll have to pay.>>29443463>We have like zero fucking money. If they take 90% of our money, we will have relatively the same amount of money.That's dumb, we still have the cash we stole(they can't see it but shit, its really fucking slimey to not pay even though we have it). We're trying to clean up our act, not be a slimey douche.
>>29443484Can we ask if they would mind cash moneys before the battle?
>>29443250>>Leave it be, start the fightnothin to loose
>>29443387There is the fact that "nothing + small bet" is unlikely to get us enough dosh for big things like a tent, but I'd rather not risk Robin's money, or our hand-to-mouth money unless I'm fairly certain of the outcome.
Holy shit, all these people...This is a perfect chance to make a great bet. We literally have nothing to loose, let it be.
>>29443484Eh, we'll see how much Robin's payout is, then consider dropping cash.>>29443516>We're trying to clean up our actNo we're not. We're trying to not treat Robin like a dick.Really, we could just pay her back later, not reason to let those guys or Vance know about our cash.
>>29443250>>29443358Seconding, small betYes gotta hand it to you OP, building and expanding the fluff in seriously awesome!!
>>29443525No. NO. Don't get all morally superior on me Anon, don't waste our money when we don't have to.>>29443516Who said we're trying to clean up our act. We don't have to be a bad person, we just need the money more than random assholes 1 and 2.We already stole 2 wallets damn it. We stole a gold nugget too. DO YOU WANT TO BET THAT??!!No?Than leave it be.
>>29443575No, fuck off. You already got outvoted
Why the hell is everyone wanting to bet small? You dont know fight rules? If no bets specified loser looses half their money and we have no money.
Petty thievery is only okay if we wouldn't be caught, and in this case? With "nothing to lose"? We would be caught. That's not cool.
>>29443463Ok so our options are>Small bet, friendly but competitive match even if we lose we still had fun or>Large bet, worry about winning, if we lose we potentially make robin pay out a lot, potentially make us look like a complete ass for not paying/keeping the cash a secret. Make our companions trust us even less if we find out
>>29443622aughrlbargl did you forget that Robin is relatively rich and could lose a lot of money? We wish to continue mooching off Robin. If it were a singles battle, it'd be a great idea, but it's not.
>>29443630Nope the third option is to let it be in which case we lose half our money in the card if we loose which amounts to pretty much nothing.
>>29443598Becoming a better person through our experiences as a pokemon trainer is a good idea, people will like us more and we've been on that path ever since we helped that kid.
>>29443648>We wish to continue mooching off RobinMaybe you do, but not everyone wants to be a dick
>>29443622Robin might have money. Making her pay out while we don't is kind of a dick move.She knows we have no money, though, so she might be surprised if we start pulling out wads of cash.
>>29443603Fine, me and other smart Anon got outvoted. That doesn't mean we have to go hide our opinions in a hole.I don't know what country you live in, but where I'm from, thats not how the democratic process works.
>>29443648Its called principle you sniveling asshat. Its unsportsmanship as well.>>29443654Read> Ethically and according to the rules you'd have to use it to pay up if you lost, but trainers don't usually have cash on hand. You'll still look like a total dick thoughWhat the fuck are ethics you children
You offer a wager of a small bet. Jacob and Lonny both readily agree. You're guessing Jacob doesn't want his little brother to get fleeced by two older trainers. You reflect that you probably have less experience than Lonny though. Robin seems fine with that too.Robin's Geodude is already out, the other two reach to their sides to throw their Pokemon onto the fieldDevon was never healed up from his fight with that ghost Pokemon. Destiny had a pretty intense training session, but isn't injured. Vlad got some exercise today too, but it wasn't enough to be too concerned. Phantump still hasn't been healed after getting caught at all. Zappy Dan hasn't been in a fight in awhile, but he technically hasn't been at the Pokemon center since Novum either.>Throw out Devon>Zappy Dan! Go!>Vlad, I choose you!>Destiny, your turn!>Do your best, Trunks!
>>29443683>Other smart anonRobin's fighting, she could stand to lose a shit-ton of Pokeyen, you're a douchebag, and yes you should fuck off back to your cave.
>>29443683It doesn't mean you need to keep bitching like an autist
>>29443705>Zappy Dan! Go!inb4 fighting types
>>29443705>Vlad, I choose you!Eh, why not?
>>29443683"Hurr I dun no wut sportsmanship iz.">>29443705>Vlad, get your pixelated ass out here!
>>29443705>>Vlad, I choose you!I know we should pick something that would be good against what's good against a Geodude. But fuck that. Vlad is a cool guy.
>>29443705>>Throw out Devon
>>29443705Vlad man, Vlad
>>29443705>Vlad, I choose you!
>>29443683Different anon here:I don't agree with your opinion, but I agree that you should be allowed and able to discuss it. Everyone needs to cool the jets - let's have fun guys. This should be a light-hearted match and a light hearted quest. >Not riding the wave of happy bubbles
Why Vlad? Shouldn't we be training our frontrunners for the gym?
>>29443705Let's see here. They'll probably toss out a counter to Geodude, which will mean water, fighting, grass, ground, and (gen VI only) steel. I say Vlad, who should be able to hit grass, psychic, and ground, depending on moveset.
>>29443692>What the fuck are ethics you childrenYou know we are talking about the money we stole right...Yeah lets suddenly change the character completely and make her a moralfag from a petty thief...>childrenkeep shitposting. it will help you prove a point for sure.
>>29443710>>29443603>being this autisticLook man, arguing is one thing, but straight up calling some one a douchebag and telling them to fuck off because you don't agree with them is another.You would do well on the news, I'm sure FOX would love to have someone as enlightened as yourself.Child.
>>29443171>>we can beat a gym leader as we are nowMore like "I beat a two-star so I can beat Satsuki/Nui/Ragyo for sure let's cut to the chase!"Then Senketsu is kill.
>>29443705>>29443767If you did not realize:>Vlad, I choose you!
>>29443730>get your pixelated ass out hereThank you for penning my new pokemon battle phrase.
>>29443779Did you not read the quest? We've been heading in that direction.
>>29443705Zappy Dan! Go!Use Hyper Beam!!!
>>29443705>Destiny, your turn!
>>29443779Kat is a petty thief, so morals only come in as a convenience.
>>29443705Vlad
>>29443779I just meant 'ethically' from a general cultural standpoint, not necessarily the characters point of view>>29443793I figured. Thanks for clearing it up though
>>29443804Hahaha.An inkling of romance, moralfagging does not make. Stop trying to trick the questers.
>>29443779Yeah, fuck character development. I love static characters
>>29443804"Heading that direction" does not necessarily imply "anywhere in the vicinity yet".At this point, I suspect Kat is still a thief, just with a few friends she won't touch. That is likely to change, especially as she gets in the habit of having enough money to live on.
>>29443841>petty thief suddenly decides she would have to be honest and pay with her money she stole two nights ago if she losesgreat character development you got there
Kat is a thief who doesn't particularly want to look like a thief in front of Robin, and she isn't quite sure why yet.Outside her sight we be stealing like we're making up for lost time.
>>29443790Says the asshole bitching because he didn't get his way?
>>29443761>>29443705Send out Vlad.I'm wanting to say Destiny, but... I think she needs more training before any serious battles.
>>29443846this, so much this
>>29443841Yeah, fuck completely unrealistic overnight character development. I love characters who develop slowly in the absence of very strong reasons to do so quickly.
>>29443839If we want to be a good trainer, then yes Moralfagging is in about the same direction.Remember when we got pissed when Vance suggested that we make our pokemon attack each other to have Destiny go faster?Plus we're only a petty thief, not a sociopath.
>>29443804No we were not. We stole a stone and a gold nugget two or three nights ago and haven't done any thing ethical or morally right for the sake of it since then.
I've never thought of Kat as a 'thief' as such, just someone who's...morally flexible, when it matters. Like, she has no issue shoplifting or pickpocketing when she needs cash or the like, but she doesn't feel the need to take risks just for the sake of it, and has pretty good self-restraint. She should still steal when the chance arises, but with a way to gain legitimate cash now via pokemon I doubt she'd do it that often, and especially wouldn't take risks to do it.
>>29443880I just think she is just too tired right now.In the Gym we should lead with Devon and pull out Destiny when we reach his main.
>>29443866Well it's more that "We don't want Robin to think we're scum"
>>29443866>stealing things a few times means you have to do dick things at every opportunityYeah, nah.
>>29443920So pretty much Kats main reason for not going half bet was Robin.
You throw out Vlad. He gleefully makes a small roll in the air as soon as he's released. He looks excited for the action.Jacob releases a small, yellow Pokemon. It has some black stripes on it, but it’s most noticeable feature is that it has a head shaped like a plug. You wonder if there’s a socket that could accommodate it.Lonny’s Pokemon is easier to identify. It’s a Ratata, if you remember from the pamphlets.Both brothers are about to call their moves. Robin's distracted attitude has vanished and been replaced by one of serious concentration. Her eyes aren't on the opponents Pokemon though, she's assessing the battlefield.>Wing Attack (specify target)>Supersonic (specify target)>Leech Life (specify target)>Wait for everyone else to make their move, then call out at attack. Vlad is pretty fast
>>29443945and we don't want robin to lose half of her money
>>29443904Says the retard who wanted to randomly ripoff two complete strangers right in front of the person we don't want to show that side of us to.
>>29443959Wait untill they call out then have Vlad supersonic the electkid (Yellow one)
>>29443959>Supersonic (Jacob's Pokemon)
>>29443959>Supersonic (unknown Pokemon)Geodude can murder the Ratata, but "small, yellow, black stripes" may mean electric murder.
>>29443959So, a great match for Geodude, terrible for Vlad?>Supersonic (Yellow thing)Only chance!
>>29443959>>Supersonic (specify target)Jacob's pokemon.Hope to confuse and damage itself.
>>29443871"bitching because he didn't get his way" and "trying to explain to some asshole that I have the right to disagree with him, even if I'm in the minority." are extremely different things.You wouldn't know of course, because you're mom has to give your autistic ass everything you want to avoid a temper tantrum. Prick.>>29443756And this guys right, arguing amongst ourselves accomplishes nothing. Even posting this makes me feel like a dick because this man made me feel self conscious.
>>29443920>>29443915Those were pretty shady guys, and it wasn't face-to-face. Most people don't have many qualms "taking" or "denying" others gains when it's not really face-to-face. Those guys (Teamsters?) in the caves were some shady strangers who implied that they got the rocks through less than honorable means... it's very different than denying some kid his winnings in front of your traveling partners/friends.It's not inconsistent to act differently in different contexts. It's called flexibility or complexity of character.
>>29443959>electricFUUUUUCK>Supersonic (specify target)Plug dude
>>29443959>>Supersonic (specify target)Target the plug thing. Electric is very bad for us.
>>29443959>>Wing Attack (specify targetRatata. Geodude is hurt and electricity is a much smaller threat against it so we can leave it last
>>29443959>Wait for everyone else to make their move, then call out at attack. Vlad is pretty fastLearn the colour system, Kat! Yellow means electric!
>>29443959Leech Life, the yellow rat.
>>29443980... What? I was one of those who voted for a small bet.
>>29444007If Kat can't associate yellow with electric than we are officially the dubest trainer out there.
>>29443959Tell Vlad to duck into the heavily forested area off the trails. His better mobility and the coverage should help with the electric attacks.Supersonic the elekid ASAP.
>Ratata + ElectricGeodude should wipe this fight.Vlad can just enjoy the weather.
>>29443991You have the right to disagree, but you're wrong, and your insistence that your point is valid is what makes you an idiot, and a douche.Also, using "autistic" like that is really a hallmark of limited intelligence, so... yeah. In the interest of not having my own intellect sapped, you can just toddle off back to whatever hugbox spawned you.
>>29443959Speaking of, are you going to tell which generation's type chart you're using for weaknesses and resistances?
>>29444063We have a Gen 6 Pokemon so i would assume gen 6.
>>29444063and which gen this is? im not familiar with 4-6, but this seems a lot like 4 with others scattered in.and is it an OC map?
>>29444028Blue is electric, right?
>>29444100meant to say 3
>>29444054Anon, you have the right to disagree, but you're wrong, and your insistence that your point is valid is what makes you an idiot, and a douche.
Hey gobble, who are your favourite pokegirls?
>>29444128Rebuted like a true fourth grader
>>29444121Somebody's seen a gen VI, so we should assume gen VI. I'm mostly familiar with V, with very faded memories of gen I, but there's always Bulbapedia to look things up.
>>29444128>Copypasting his words as a replyGrow up
>>29443991Fine fine, the only reason my jimmies are so rustled in the first place is because I was told to fuck off for trying to explain my viewpoint.I also tend to insult people when I have been insulted, like everyone else on the planet, yourself included.But if not insulting you back is the only way to get you to understand, so be it.>>29444128Not me.>>29444159You're being what you claim to hate.
>>29444189The first quote is supposed to be>>29444054
>>29444164Could be a mish-mash of whatever pokes Gobble likes best.Also makes it easy to give players what they want without too much metaing.
>>29444189Anon having that kind of attitude to things is what causes stupid pointless flame wars like this. It's best just to ignore dumb bullshit.
>>29444189I told you to fuck off because everyone understood and disagreed with it but you wouldn't shut the fuck up about it anyways, not because I disagreed. This is pathetic
>>29444189Your viewpoint is inherently flawed and it took even the QM to point out that a large bet could potentially be a bad ideaWhen the bad outweighs the good in a fucking what if situation, then you need to reevaluate your choices.
faggots go argue in /qtg/ please
>>29444234>>29444189Both of you, shut up now. You are both resorting to insults, and are shitting up the thread.
>>29444253this
>>29444253Fine man, this is what I wanted the entire time anyway.
Please do continue. It is fun to watch and pitch in a comment now and then to see your respons.
>>29444189Considering you're willing to be civil about this, let me explain why the large bet was a dick move no matter how you look at it.1) If we lose, yes, we're out just a little bit of stolen money, but Robin (presumably our friend) would be out a much larger amount since she's got loads of it and, in the game, you lose a percentage. More money = bigger loss, and since we care about her, going cowboy would be bad.2) These are inexperienced trainers, and Rock-types are usually OP in the beginning stages. Even if we win, we're more or less using Robin as our muscle to steal two kids' lunch money.3) We're not even to the level where we can challenge a Gym yet. The money will come, but going for blood from the word "go" will give us a bad reputation and I'm sure that in the end that will work against us.4) Playing for money is part of the game, sure, but playing solely for the reward (the money, etc) is really discounting the spirit of the Pokemon game.
>>29444301that is called baiting.
>>29444253that was only my second response. I just want this bullshit to end
Based on what you've learned, yellow Pokemon are usually electric and that's bad news for Vlad, even if it's good news for Geodude.Before you're even able to act, the small Rattata gets it's order. Quick Attack. It's everything it sounds like. The tiny rodent darts through the air, and slams into Vlad. Vlad's able to take it, but that looked like it had some solid power behind it."Vlad! Use Supersonic on...ummm," You pause, but only for a moment. "User Supersonic on that yellow Pokemon!" Right after you say it, it occurs to that Vlad might not understand what yellow is. To your relief, he lets out a high pitched screech at the right one."Elekid! Use Low Kick on Geodude!" You hear Jacob command. Elekid looks confused, and instead of striking Geodude, it stubs it's toe on a nearby boulder.Robin calls out: "Use Mud Sport Geodude!" With that, her Geodude begins to toss up a huge amount of mud into the air. She looks over to you and gives a thumbs up, then turns her attention back to the battle.>Wing attack (specify target)>Supersonic (specify target)>Leech Life (specify target)>Something else
>>29443959Leech the fucking electric rat! OMNOMNOMGONNAEATYOSOUL!

>>29444349>Wing attack (specify target)
>>29444397I'm afraid it doesn't quite work like that.
>>294444414s
>>29444441Why wouldnt it. Mud counts as ground
>>29444444>>29444474it would have to cover every single inch with no holes. and other reasons i am not sciency enough to explain
>>29444474http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Mud_Sport_(move)It's even a move
>>29444474If you are covered with a layer of dirt and electric hit you you are not going to be fine because its earth.
>>29444441It couldn't hurt. It might not help, but it won't hurt.
>>29444507just checking the hecta>>29444524i would waste a turn, the elekid is already at a disadvantage
>>29444523It's an official goddamned move
>>29444063Most recent.>>29444100OC Map. I didn't want to distract from anything by having a huge amount of inconsistencies from the games when forgot details or fucked up. I have a rough draft made in paint. It's pretty terrible and I haven't shared it yet. Partially because all the locations aren't thought out at all yet, and partially because it's hideous. I can share it if you guys like, or at least share blocked out pieces,but I should warn you that there will be some details change as you discover things.>>29444135Hard to choose. Misty was one of my first fictional crushes back in the day, but I'm not an overly nostalgic person.
>>29444516Oh, that means we are already covered in mud, because Robin used it to help us.
>>29444571Are we covered in mud already?
>>29444543I don't think there's technically turns in this thread, it doesn't seem that structured. Swooping down to get some mud and using an attack could be combined easily.But it doesn't matter anyways, because apparently we already have some mud on us.>>29444516>>29444576
>>29444524Vlad is already covered in dirt giving him resistance to electricity, thanks to Robin.
>>29444524It would. Vlad can't fly as fast which cuts airspeed and attack power for Wing Attack.
>>29444612>>29444576Huh.The description for http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Ground_(type) says the user coats itself, but that works too. I guess that was robins plan.
>>29444571If you are going to share map, integrate it into ingame. Like someone gives us a map of the towns and places around this region, then we find new maps as we go etc... Gives you time to make little pieces of maps instead of a whole world map and it contrivutes as a game development.
>>29444634The protection from electricity is worth it, especially since wing attack sucks on electric and Geodude will pound the rat
>>29444661Description != mechanics. Mud Sport affects whole field.
>>29444663this. locations are a big thing, especially since we aren't constrained by not being able to swim or climb a ledge.
>>29444722Mechanics != story. We don't know how it works here.
>>29444606[Yes. I guess I should have been clearer. There's mud and turn in the air, including on Vlad. It's not enough to be a significant hindrance to visibility or speed.]"Vlad! Use Leech Life on the same target!" Vlad is quick to comply, but before he's able to move, the little Rattata strikes him again with Quick Attack. That one looked like it hurt, a lot. Vlad steadies his flight and his the Elekid with a Leech Life. He looks a marginal amount better.Jacob doesn't want to turn his attention away from taking out Geodude. He orders Elekid to use Low Kick again. There's a solid, low whacking noise as Geodude is knocked back a surprising amount. it doesn't look like Elekid was able to shake off his confusion though.Geodude is slow to steady himself. Robin looks unsure of her next move. You can see the indecision and calculations in her head. She doesn't have long to hesitate, and eventually commits to an action. "Geodude, use Magnitude!"As soon as Geodude begins the move, Robin's shoulders slump a little in relief. She must not have been sure of Geodude knew that. Your eyes flick back to Geodude in time to see him shake the ground in a mighty rumble.It's devastating. Elekid is knocked on his feet. Rattata looks hurt as well, but not as much. Both Elekid and Geodude look drained, you doubt they'll last another turn. Vlad and Rattata are hurt as well, but not as much. Still, you could easily see either one of them getting knocked out in a single move.>Supersonic (Specify)>Leech Life (Specify)>Wing Attack (Specify)>Something else
>>29444803Robin gave us a thumbs up because she used a move that will help our type disadvantage. It helped us already
>>29444959>Wing Attack (Specify)on Rattata

>>29444571>Hard to choose.Sapphlat a best.
>>29445029This.Supersonic on Rattatta.
>>29445029Rattata has been shitting all over us though
>>29445035Green a best
>>29445036you did the exact opposite of what i was arguing for. Elekid is attacking Geodude.
>>29444959>Leech Life (Elekid again)Elekid's the greater danger to both Vlad and Robin's Geodude, and Wing Attack does 1/2 damage to Electric.
>>29444959leech life on Rattata
>>29445029odds are the rat KOs us with Quick attack anyway,its all on the confusion status on Elekid
>>29445061Why use a DoT on something about to faint
>>29445045not really, i would say we have atleat 2 more maybe three more attacks from him. Geodude will dish out serious damage this turn if we can get him to survive Elekids attack
>>29445083Leech Life isn't a DoT. You're probably thinking of Leech Seed.
>>29445083it's the only move we have that will kill it and it will help protect us from the Rat.>>29445080we at atleast 2 more hits. plus if we drsin we get HP
>>29445053Original Green, with the little black dress, yes. New Green, with shitty hat and bag, no.
>>29444959>>Leech Life (Elekid)
These may not be their only pokemon
>>29445161Doesn't matter, it's a single pokemon battle.
>>29445114Your right I am. My bad, why would zubat even know that>>29445137I didn't even know there was a new one
>>29444959>Wing Attack (Elekid)Rattata will hit us anyways, but Elekid may be downed before it takes down Geodude.
So this turn1 we will get hit by Rat bringing us to critical levels2 Elekid will KO Geodude3 we will do bring the rat (the one who is faster than us) to the same hp level as us (critical)we're fucked.
I'm prety sure that whatever we do it should be leech life so that the rat doesn't kill us next turn.
>>29445197Did you miss that magnitude wrecking their shit? Or did you skip over that part?
>>29445133we only drain like a small fraction of the damage and they don't seemingly have much left to drain from anyway>>29445197or confusion wastes elekid's turn again and geodude KOs them with Magnitude
>>29445197Elekid is still confused
>>29445230right now rat is at medium health and elekid is at critical
>>29445197Neither one can take a single hit.
>>29445197Alternatively,1.We will hit Rat, bringing it down to critical levels, and be healed slightly.2.Geodude will KO Geodude.3.The rat will take us to the same HP levels as it. (critical)I think it really depends on whether or not Elekid's confusion hampers it long enough for Geodude to use magnitude again.
>>29445252>>2944523650/50>>29445197as opposed to1 Rat attacks us bringing us to critical2 We leech life Elekid, killing him and restoring our health3 Geodude kills Rat (magnititude)
>>29445263>Geodude will KO GeodudeGOD DAMN GEODUDE GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER SELF HARM IS NOT COOL OKAY STOP POKETRIGGERING ME!
>>29445253>Both Elekid and Geodude look drained, you doubt they'll last another turn.They're both one hit away, are you blind
>>29445289>POKETRIGGERINGword of the day.
>>29445300>Elekid and GeodudeRat is at mediumCheck what you're quoting
>>29444959>Leech Life (Elekid)
>>29445289Small mistype.Anyways, if the other trainer is smart, he will have rattata quick attack Geodude to make sure it goes down quick.Assuming it can't shrug it off of course, but it is at critical health.I think younger trainer is to much of a n00b though, we should be fine.
>>29445355i appreciate the effort samefagger, but if anons choose stupidity then we must let them. it is up to us to try to convince them.
>>29445365>rat>quick attack>Geodude>killHAHAHAHAHAH2-3 damage at bestand that is the rookie trainer
"Vlad! Hit Rattata with a wing attack!"Right on queue, Rattata leaps for another quick attack on Vlad. You're both expecting it this time. Vlad makes a move to dodge the attack, but Rattata is just too fast when it's flying through the air. Instead of helping, he's not properly braced for the attack and Rattata is able to get in an intense blow. Vlad goes down.Lonny cheers in victory as Rattata lands and turns it's attention to Geodude. Out of the corner of our eye though, you're able to see that Vlad didn't hit the ground. He must have had a little extra energy from that Leech Life. He swoops behind the thick trees and quickly comes around. Vlad's wings spread wide as he whooshes as full speed into Rattata. Now it's your turn to cheer, as the small rodent is sent sprawling back.Elekid is told once more to use Low Kick on Geodude. Jacob seems to think that if he can take Geodude out of the picture, he'll be able to mop you up. The small yellow creature comes running at Geodude, who's still struggling to stay up. There's no way he can dodge this one.But he didn't have to. Elekid goes for a kick and misses wildly. He strike the ground face first and doesn't get up.You see a firey aura around Robin. She's very much into this. She doesn't gloat, but there's joy in her eyes. "Geodude! Now's our chance! Use Magnitude one more time!" Lonny's Pokemon is just getting to it's feet after Vlad's attack. This time magnitude seems way less powerful, you note. Still, it's enough, Rattata is knocked out!Both Vlad and Geodude are barely up, but victory is yours.>Gloat>Congratulate Robin>Congratulate the others on a good match

>>29445414Why are we not congratulating the pokemon?

We really need to get to a pokemon center now. Destiny is the most in shape poke we have right now.
>>29445414>>Congratulate Robin>>Congratulate the others on a good matchCongratulations all round.
>>29445491Adding>Congratulate Vlad.
>>29445526we kinda saved her ass too. by confusing and hurting the elekid
>>29445414Vlad first, then, Robin hugs, then sportsmanship. Priorities.>>Congratulate Robin>>Congratulate the others on a good match
>>29445526>>29445504Implying she wouldn't have gone down hard as fuck if it wasn't for us confusing the Elekid.We're both equally responsible for this win.Congratulate her anyway of course, I'm just saying we did a good job too.
>>29445566I think she gets MVP though>>29445588She gave us mud and did most damage with her attacks
>>29445566>>29445588>>29445612Almost like good teamwork.
>>29445552Battles are only epic due to ALL combattants
>>29445612That mud turned out to be useless because of the lack of electric attacks (granted, no electric attacks were used most likely BECAUSE of the mud, if anything all that move did was make Geodude attract the aggro of the Elekid instead of us.)Geodude would have knocked out long before the end without those 2 misses we caused. If she did good damage, we did fucking AWESOME damage prevention.>>29445638Just like this guy says, we won because good teamwork, not because someone did better. I just think our character is way to prideful to straight up give Robin the title of MVP over ourselves.
>>29445573this
The excitement is just too much. You run over to Robin and give her a huge, powerful hug. There's an almost indistinguishable blush, but she hugs you right back, and you both give small, excited jumps."That was a great move using Supersonic," she says with an almost uncharacteristic enthusiasm and confidence. You pat her on the back and give her your own compliment. "That Mud Sport was brilliant! And Magnitude really saved the day!"Vance, who was watching the entire thing with interest, gives a nod of approval.You and Robin head over to the two brothers. Jacob is consoling Lonny, who's trying not to show his tears. Their attention turns to you as you walk up. "That was a good match," you say to Lonny. "You almost had us, it was really close" Robin adds.Lonny wipes way his tears while still trying to hide them. He doesn't really succeed at either, but nobody comments on it. He does smile back at you though. "Thanks! Zubats are really cool! I want to catch one!" You jokingly return Vlad and make an overt motion to hide the Pokeball from Lonny. Jacob pats him on the back and you all share a small laugh. After that, another round of compliments. Jacob is impressed with Robin's use of Mud Sport, and she's impressed with him adapting and using Low Kick.As you're all huddle in fairly close now, you realize you could probably easily swipe something from Jacob's pocket. His clothes are loose and impracticable.>Take something>It's not worth the risk>Something else

>>29445820Vance might see
>>29445859I agree with this.

>>29445820>It's not worth the riskCareful there, hotshot.
>>29445820>It's not worth the riskToo many witnesses, guy isn't a prick.Or so, at least you tell yourself.
>>29445820>>It's not worth the risk
>>29445898Really? Are you that stupid? Its not worth doing and Vance has been watching us intently for a while.
>>29445820>It's not worth the riskThere's an official record that this battle took place and that we were here. I'm all for playing her as a ruthless thief, but this is too risky.
>>29445859Yeah. We might be a thief but we're not a dick. That's why we return wallets
>>29445935Wait, really?Huh. I suppose he found the stolen stuff. No wonder he's leery of us.
>>29445983Watching doesn't mean he's suspicious. That's quite a leap there
>>29445983he shouldn't know it was stolen though....
>>29445983I don't think he'd know it's stolen stuff, at least not for certain. There's a million possible explanations, ranging from "she's hot" to "why is she cockblocking me" to "I enjoy intensely staring at random people".
>>29446043We have a Sylph card. There's no way that shit isn't stolen. No way. If he found it, he'd be stupid to not be suspicious.
>>29446032This, but it wouldn't be a good idea since he has been watching us on several occasions
>>29445935Vance isn't omniscient, he has no idea we're a sneak thief, and would have no reason to watch out for it.I change my vote anyways, because we -are- long overdue getting aught swiping something, I'm just saying, I don't like this new trend of being a "nice person".If I didn't learn my lesson last time, I would totally call you a pussy, but nah son. Don't need that problem.>>29445983How would he know that stuff is stole-...Silph Co. ID, shit.We have no reason to have that.
>>29446043He's a fighting type trainer. What if he can see auras?
>>29446064Found it on the ground
>>29446102Suuuuuuuure. And he thinks we have a bridge to sell Robin.
>>29445820>As you're all huddle in fairly close now, you realize you could probably EASILY swipe something from Jacob's pocket.If we know we can easily take something without notice we might as well.
>>29446083There's no reason to steal right now, especially since we beat them in the first place. And again, Vance is watching us.Stop being a moron and think for once, actions have consequences and being a retard sociopath would lead to consequences
You decide it's not worth the risk. They'd probably figure out it was you after. Besides, you just won a little money, and they seem like decent people.You look at Robin as she laughs. You even glance over at Vance as he's ready his backpack to move on. There are other reasons too, you suppose.Everyone exchanges goodbyes and you hit the road once more.It doesn't take long to arrive. The view of Kindletown from this small hilltop is as refreshing as the cool breeze. The trees here grow thick, but not intrusive. You’ve only been to Kindletown a few times in your life, either to sneak away from the orphanage for a long time, or as part of a very rare field trip to the local museum.Even you know that Kindletown gets it's name from it's logging industry. It's a small but hearty town. It's only southbound road eventually reaches Novum, your hometown. The fresh smell of trees and earth reminds you of Robin, except without the flowery touch.Even though Robin looks generally happy to be home, but that soon gives way to an aura of anxiety. You can see her fidgeting with her fingers.Vance has that stupid grin of his. It’s one of the few expressions he has where it’s easy to read. When he has that smile, he seems annoyingly optimistic about every little thing.> Head straight to the Pokecenter.

>>29446342It was described as... well I don't feel like going to the thread to quote it, but it's described as being round with little spikes (legs) coming off it. This implies a dome fossil. If it was Omanyte it would have a spiral on it.>>29446353>>29446360It's definitely Kabuto, 100% certain.
>>29446368Cranidos is a pachycephalosarus

>>29446307>>29446342>>29446353>>29446360>>29446368Read the pastebin, it's a Skull Fossil.
>>29446420Cranidos it is, go zen headbutt!
>>29446420Cranidos it is then.I'm glad. We needed a good physical attacker, and you can't get much more attack than a Rampardos.
>>29446368It only made us think of a skull because it was a fossil, which reminded us of dead things. Every other descriptor was dead on Dome fossil.>>29446420I haven't checked the paste bin as of writing this post, but I will check it to see if I'm correct.
>>29446458>>29446414>>29446407>>29446368>>29446462>yet MORE Fighting weaknessgoddamnit
>>29446420Aw. But I wanted to ride around on a totally bitchin' T-Rex of Justice. Think of all the things we could do with our own T-Rex. Sneaking around, fighting thugs, being awesome. And everyone would be all "Holy shit, check out that girl and her awesome T-Rex!"
>>29446482We have a flying and ghost type stop freaking out.
>>29446465Ok, it turn out it is a skull fossil based on the pastebin, but>smooth circle with some points coming out of it.just screams dome fossil to me.
>>29446482We have a ghost and flying-type.We'll be fine.
>>29446522>>29446550Just because a move is typed as Fighting does not mean a mon needs to be Fighting-type themselves to use it.ie Elekid's Low Kick.>>29446541It was actually listed as a Dome Fossil in the pastebin at one point.
>>29446482vlad can handle it
The point of this fossil discussion is that we should definitely go to that museum to get our pokemon, right?Because I want to go to that Museum.
All of your Pokemon have seen a good about of action, it's probably a good idea to get them healthy and fighting fit.You all make your way down to the Pokecenter. You, Robin, and Vance each submit your Pokeballs to the nurse. She quotes you on roughly a two hour wait.The sign over her should says that this Pokecenter offers free showers, lodgings, and even free food for trainers. You can barely make out faded graffiti on the sign saying that the food 'sux rapidash dongs'.Vance excuses himself and heads over to the computer. He says he's making a call to his sister.>Listen in on Vance's conversation>Shower time>Lunch time>Buy Pokemon supplies first. You have a small amount on your card, and a good amount of physical cash. Maybe they'd buy the nugget too.>Something else
>>29446603Shower, lunch, supplies, museum date with Robin.
>>29446603Lunch time! Then shower
>>29446603>Shower time
>>29446603>>Lunch timeI love Rapidash dongs!
>>29446621This guy understands.
>>29446603>>Buy Pokemon supplies first. You have a small amount on your card, and a good amount of physical cash. Maybe they'd buy the nugget too.>buy a tent and sleeping bagRobin has her own home with her own bath that she should be getting back to right about now, right, Robin?
>>29446603>>Shower timethen>>Lunch timethen>>Buy Pokemon supplies first. You have a small amount on your card, and a good amount of physical cash. Maybe they'd buy the nugget too.
>>29446603>>Shower time with Robin
>>29446603>Shower timeTime for Robin's 'reward'. And payback for the inspection.The reward is a hug.
listen in, we really want to know what his deal is.
>>29446603Shower, lunch, supplies.
>>29446621this
>>29446656Not our business. He'll open up if he sticks around.
>>29446621This guy seems legit
>>29446603>Something elseAsk Robin if there are any hot spots on town, treat her and Vance to a nice thank-you dinner with the dosh from that nugget.
>>29446621Why assume there's even a museum
>>29446719because we've been there before
>>29446719> You’ve only been to Kindletown a few times in your life, either to sneak away from the orphanage for a long time, or as part of a very rare field trip to the local museum.Really?
>>29446719> You’ve only been to Kindletown a few times in your life, either to sneak away from the orphanage for a long time, or as part of a very rare field trip to the local museum.
>>29446719see >>29446145>a very rare field trip to the local museum
>>29446719Nevermind. Just reread. I missed the museum part
>>29446742>>29446746Yeah, I reread after I posted that. Sorry, I'm retarded
>>29446621Yeah, this.Hopefully the BBEG won't show up.
You figure you'll take a shower first. The trip has been long and you just need to feel clean again. After that, lunch sounds nice, and maybe you'll ask Robin if the museum is worth visiting or if there's anything better in town. You'll need to stock up first though.You're eyes meet Robin's as she looks from the sign to you. All it takes is for her to see wicked grin on your face for her to exchange one type of nervousness for another. You swear, the poor girl is going to develop an ulcer or something. You grab her hand and drag her the desk to get some locker keys, and then to the showers.It looks a lot better inside than outside. It's basically just an upgraded version of the same showers in Novum. There's a large, open area, as well as smaller stalls for privacy. Robin begins to head one of the private stalls.>Relax, it's nothing I haven't seen before.>Let her be. You can talk over the stall doors>Something else.
>>29446899>>Relax, it's nothing I haven't seen before.
>>29446899>Relax, it's nothing I haven't seen before
>>29446899Relax you've seen it before, besides I still need to reward you
>>29446899>Relax, it's nothing I haven't seen before.>And you got to see me...
>>29446899Let her pick a stall... then join her.
>>29446899>Relax, it's nothing I haven't seen before.But don't push. Head off into a stall of your own, to give her full choice in the matter.
>>29446899>Relax, it's nothing you haven't seen before.Dohohoho
>>29446899>Relax, it's nothing I haven't seen beforePrivate stall for 2
>>29446899yay, lewd times
>>29446899Not even gonna weigh in on this one, I know where this is heading. I couldn't change the course even if I wanted.
>>29446955If you'd ever read Nana to Kaoru, you'd know damn well it's better the other way around.
this should loosen her up before meeting her father
>>29446899>Let her be. You can talk over the stall doors
>>29447010Yep.
>>29447013>Implying I haven'tNana's a dumbass, so we can't count on that kind of reliable fuckery from Robin.
>>29446899 >Relax, it's nothing I haven't seen before. >And you got to see me...
>>29447010Nobody can stop the /u/-boat
This is Robin's hometown. We might have seen her before, but the other people she knows haven't seen US with HER before. And it's perfectly understandable that she might want to keep it that way.
>>29447097Fuck em
>>29447124Just don't be surprised when this makes the inevitable drama with her father worse.
>>29447097This is an important aspect to consider.Then again, if her community ostracizes her, she becomes easy pickings.
>>29447165Her father sounds like a prick anyway.
>>29447165>implying we don't want this to happen
>>29447071We can be patient, and we don't want to scare her off now, do we?We should do this right.
>>29447165we're alone in the showers
>>29447165Daddy has eyes in the girls shower?
>>29447191Her father is spying on us. Right now. Get away from his daughter you goddamn hussie
>>29447189You're talking to the wrong person on that. I don't do things by half-measures.Probably why I'm a shut-in with minimal human contact.
>>29447189too late
>>29447210See>>29447183
>>29447244he is obsessed with fire pokemon, there is no way he would stoop to admiring filthy humans.
>>29447226Amen>>29447244We still don't want to piss him off, otherwise Robin would get mad
You walk along side Robin to the stall. "Oh relax. It's nothing I haven't seen before."She tenses, and her eyes suddenly become wide. "B-Bbut Robin, that was different.." she starts. That's right, calling you Robin too when you're alone is her little joke. You learn in close "Oh? I suppose an innocent shower really doesn't compare to a night of drunken, topless fun." You're practically whispering into her ear as the sentence drags. Her face turns that fun little shade of red again. You hear other people coming into the showers now too. Robin looks even more flustered. She's aware of how this might look. She slams the stall door closed as they approach. Her relief only lasts an instant before she realizes that you're in the stall with her. "Why Robin, how aggressive~"She quickly tries to put her hand over your mouth in order to silence you. Now you can see her entire body turn red as she's pressed up against you. To her credit, she manages to keep her hands over your mouth, and then slowly removes them. She's giving you a funny look. It's a mix of pleading and threatening.You can hear idle chatter in the shower and the sounds of taps turning on.>Tease more. This is too fun>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attack
>>29446899Let her be. There's a special kind of fun in making her take the initiative.
>>29447315>>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attackThat was fun. Time to back off.
>>29447315>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attackLittle by little
>>29447315>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attack
>>29447315Ok ok no more it's her home town and all But give her a quick hug before we leave the stall
>>29447274Humans are his dirty fetish, don't you see?He hides it from his Charizard waifu.Anyways, I still think >>29447315>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attack... and this is why I was saying we should not press, to tender an invitation but not force it upon her.
>>29447315Offer to be quiet if she'll kiss you
>>29447315>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attackBut we're not actually leaving, right?
>>29447315>>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attackunless we can tease her silently with our hands then>Tease more. This is too fun
>>29447315Turn the water on and start showering
>>29447372Too suspicious. Maybe after the other girls enter their stalls.
>>29447389yup
>>29447392No leaving at all. Wash her
>>29447315>>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attack...this thread went somewhere strange and unfortunately predictable while I was gone.
>>29447375Waaaay too forward. Patience, Metapod.
>>29447315Tease her just a little more, then slip out carefully so nobody can see you were both in the same stall.
>>29447315That's enough, now she's starting to panic it looks like.
>>29447315>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attackAs much as i would like to try and see how far we can push her, i don't want to scare her.Just shower together.
>>29447414i like this idea
>>29447315>Alright, that's enough. You don't want to give the poor girl an anxiety attackIt was all for the important back-wash.
>>29447315"Lick you later, lollipop."Leave the stall.
no leaving
>>29447426Quite predictable, but at least /tg/ knows how far is "clearly way too far". Besides,/tg/'s predictability has meant the interest is pretty thoroughly canon by now.
>>29447480ha perfect
>>29447524>bit of perverted teasing>canon otpyeah nah
>>29447580Yup, we dyke.
>>29447580agreed, but we are undeniably on the road to otp city
>>29447609actually bi
>>29447528It would be if she were less panicked and more comfortable with the situation.>>29447580And there goes Evel Knievel, on one of his astounding leaps of logic, going from "interest" to "otp forever perfect couple".Even if the first girl just about always wins on /tg/.
>>29447630Your the one who keeps trying to involve Vance aren't you
>>29447668probably
>>29447668no, just pointing it out. i prefer lesbian relationships, it is just we have confirmed our sexuality as bi already
>>29447668it was what the dream was supposed to decide, don't you think?
>>29447668>>29447685Just because only a small amount of people are into involving Vance doesn`t mean she isn`t canon bi.You can be bisexual and not want to fuck every guy and girl you see.
>>29447742You can also be bisexual and monogamous.
>>29447742contrary to poplar beliefu
"I'll be good," you wink at her.She lets her hands down completely. You both might as well start the shower while you're in here though, not like you can leave any time soon. There's not that much room the maneuver.To your surprise, Robin very quietly suggests you wash each others hair and backs. To be fair though, it really is the only way the job is going to get done without awkwardly elbowing everything. She washes your back first. Her small hands delicately but thoroughly wash your hands. You suppress the urge to let out a whimpering coo as her hands fingers run through your hair and massage your scalp. You did promise to stop after all, even if it might not be just teasing her.You change positions and run your hands up her. It's not sensual, but it's not entirely clinical either. Just bordering on plausible deniability. Your hands run through her short, soft red hair and by now she seems a little more relaxed. This is nice. It's not even 'niiiice', but just plain comfortable.Neither of you are sure when the noise from outside stopped. Slowly, you peak over and see that you and Robin are alone again.You make your break from the towels and toss her one. As you're both drying off, she gives you an appreciative smile, but then looks down on the ground, flushed. "Thanks." She says.You both exit out of the shower without saying anything else. You feel very refreshed, but your stomach is grumbling. Robin must have heard that, because she turns to you. "Lunch time?" You nod in agreement.Vance seems to be waiting, flipping through a magazine. Robin invites him to join the two of you in the cafeteria. You collect your trays of 'food' and make your way to an empty table.Your arm is looking much better now, and besides being hungry, you feel great. Vance said he'd make sure you're OK, but now what?>Ask Vance what his plans are>Hint that you're fine, wish him a good life>Thank him, ask if he wants to come with you>Other
>>29447882>>Ask Vance what his plans are
>>29447882>Ask Vance what his plans are>Hint that you're fine.
>>29447882Ask what his plans are
>>29447882>Ask Vance what his plans are.>Hint that you're fine.
>>29447882>Ask Vance what his plans areGet to know him better, since he seems rather reserved. We should at least make it up to him before deciding whether to split.A strong guy who does not use pokemon could be useful in the future.
>>29447882>Ask Vance what his plans areNo sense in burning too many bridges.
>>29447882Ask his plans. I don't really want him to stay but I don't want to be rude
>>29447882>Ask Vance what his plans are
>>29447882ask what vance plans to do
>>29447882holy shit that anatomyjesus christ
>>29447882>Ask Vance what his plans areDo we still want to become a Team Admin? Him being there could make it harder to manipulate and erode Robin's ethics.
>>29448014Jesus, don't point it out! It looks cute until you point attention to how hideously deformed the characters are.
>>29447981Why not? He's a total bro
>>29448042Would be cool, but not looking too likely, people seem to want to go legit.
>>29448066I was going to consider him a bro but after telling us to scare Destiny with Zappy Dan not so much.
>>29448042We're not manipulating or eroding shitAlso we should get a brush for houndar and maybe one to brush robins hair
>>29448107it would still impede sexitimes
>>29448066He's a jerk for saying that we should do that mean stuff to Destiny.
>>29448100That was wrong, but hardly unforgivable. So let's drag him along and teach him the error of his training methods. Our friendship will be legendary.
>>29448100To be fair, he didn't know that would trigger Kat that hard.
Different strokes for different folks, i don't fault him for it.
>>29448244>>29448280I guess we'll see depending on what is plans are.
"So Vance, what are you plans now?" You play with your food a bit, trying to act casual. "Now that you've kept your promise and all."He takes a big swig of his water. He's thinking about it, or maybe stalling. "Well, I'm not sure to be honest. My sister invited me to come visit home in Braundalin City. I'm considering it."You lean in inquisitively. There's more information here. "But?""But I haven't made much progress with my training yet." He sighs. "My methods haven't paid off as much as I'd like. I want to come home with something to show for my time." He looks back up at you. "When I saw how you handled training your Horsea, I realized how ineffective I've been." For the first time, hes neither stupidly happy or unreadable. There's a loss of pride in his voice.Robin looks a little busy with her food. She must be uncomfortable with the confession he's making.>Offer to help him with his training. It's the least you could do after everything he's done.>Offer to give him pointers, for a price (write-in suggestions)>Wish him the best in his travels. Have a nice life. Bye.>Other
>>29448347>>Wish him the best in his travels. Have a nice life. Bye.We've got our own things
>>29448347Offer to help him with his training, with the caveat that once he's become a good trainer and you've both achieved your goals, you have an all-or-nothing stakes battle.
>>29448347Tell him he might have better training if he travels, and some training partners
>>29448347>Offer to give him pointers, for a price (write-in suggestions)He`s gotta pay for food. This pokecenter food sux rapidash dongs
>>29448347>>Offer to give him pointers, for cash
>>29448347>Offer to help him with his training. It's the least you could do after everything he's done.
>>29448347>Offer to help him with his training. It's the least you could do after everything he's done.He seems repentant I think we should give him another chance.
>>29448409This.
>>29448347What this guy said:>>29448409First pointer: "Your Pokemon have got to be happy with what they're doing. Nobody does their best if they hate what they're doing".
>>29448347>Offer to help him with his training. It's the least you could do after everything he's done.I know we're training to be a pokemon master here, but I've never been comfortable with humans being completely inferior to evolved pokemon. seconding this >>29448394
>>29448347"Staying in one place training by yourself means that your training has nothing but what you brought with you, travel, gain new experiences and you'll find that training is un-needed as you will have instead learned."
>>29448347>Offer to give him pointers, for free.Just the one really; making his own body stronger doesn't make him a better trainer. Improving his pokemon's strength doesn't make him a better trainer.Trying to be a better trainer makes him a better trainer.
>>29448347>Wish him the best in his travels. Have a nice life. Bye.He isn't that interesting of a traveling companion.He may also have problems with our stealing.It might be nice to have him as a rival we meet every now and then during our travels.
>>29448347offer to help him, but we train Pokemon together. group dojo time
>>29448394Seconding this.
>>29448347>>Offer to give him pointers, for a price (write-in suggestions)he'll handle food on our travels, and help with our training
>>29448347>>Wish him the best in his travels. Have a nice life. Bye.I care little for Vance.
>>29448347>Offer to help him with his training. It's the least you could do after everything he's done.'When you hit a wall, it's best to take a few steps back, get some fresh air, see how other people do it.'
>>29448347>Wish him the best in his travels. Have a nice life. Bye.Let's let him go his way.
>>29448347Time to start the pokegang. Vance, we shall corrupt you to with intent to make you the bouncer/bodyguard.
>>29448347>>Offer to help him with his training. It's the least you could do after everything he's done.why not have a doctor?
>>29448347>Offer to give him pointers, for a price (write-in suggestions)he has to give the group medical attention when needed (if he can)
>>29448443He's likely also (or only) talking about his own personal training.It really is something that could possibly be done. I would say it's doable, but figuring out what to do about town first is priority.Some cost is probably a good idea, but not necessarily a heavy cost.>>29448347>Tell him that we'll consider it as well. But that we should at least fight the Gym Leader or whatever else we're doing here first.(And use some time to talk to Robin and make sure that the only thing bothering her are her hometown issues.)
>>29448347>Braundalin CityFighting type gym confirmed. Vance is probably related to the leader, and it's probably his sister.
>>29448561Oh, right, sorry. Been playing too much Pokemon, where Everything Is About Pokemon Even When There Is No Logical Reason For It To Be So.
>>29448659His personal training is Pokemon Martial Arts. That's all about pokemon.
>>29448648now the real question is, will she be muscle chick or super cute girl with Armstrong level strength?
>>29448731Both. The super cute girl is her super mode.
>>29448731"Oh, my! Hello, and welcome to Braundalin City Gym! My name is Delilah, and I do hope my disciples didn't give you any trouble. Me? Oh, why, yes I'm the leader. W-why are you laughing about that? That's not nice..."
>>29448731Definitely Armstrong level strength.
