Oh shit we're caught a Gyarados? Are we going to dive after it and get horribly poisoned again?

>>30104764
We have a full team. It got beamed to a PC.

Gyarados does not reappear. You caught it! Since you have six Pokemon already, it must have gone into storage. You'll have to check out the PC the next time you're at a Pokemon center.

You turn your attention to Eddie and Vance. To your surprise you see Eddie attempting to catch the Gyarados that they're fighting. Eddies Pokeball connects, absorbs the Gyarados, and drops to the water. The Pokeball he threw is a different colour, and floats on the waters surface.

It wiggles once, then twice, then finally clicks.

"Yes!" Eddie announces. His excitement vanishes when he realizes the ball is still floating out on the water. "Does anybody have any Pokemon they can use to get that Lure Ball?"

>>30104751
I'm the guy who initially coined the three-way investing thing a couple threads ago. I just happened to be stalking the Twitter group today and saw Gobble post. Figured the sooner we address the quest memes, the better.

>>30104802
Send Vlad. Destiny would probably get her ass kicked by the Magicarp.

Send destiny and vlad

>>30104802
>Send Destiny to get it

>>30104775
I do not undestand how that works, like why cant trainer carry more pokeballs like normal person (plenty of that in anime) and 6 be limit in battles

>>30104802

>send Vance out to get it

>>30104802

send vlad

>>30104802
Vlad seems the better choice.

>>30104870

>>30104868

Probably to do with storage systems and making sure trainers follow the law. It's sci fi.

Awh yeah nigga
We got a Gyrados now.

Who should we switch him with when we go to check out our new pokemon?

>>30104967

Houndour.

>>30104967
Motherfucker is staying in the PC till we have a badge that lets us control the giant snake made of rage.

>>30104967
No one since our current team is fine and he won't listen to us.
Getting that gyarados was retarded

>>30104984
Nope
Abra a shit

>>30104984
I think we should cover our weaknesses and switch out Destiny when we go to inspect our new Gyrados, not that we'll abandon Destiny and keep her in the PC forever like I do in games.

Also maybe release Magikarp.

>>30104896
Crap he's too high level...

>>30104967
Nobody. We're giving him to a Professor to examine it. Or trading it for something we like.

We're going to raise the Magikarp we caught first because it knows a move that doesn't suck, and is already close to evolving, and we caught it fair and square instead of having a team gang up on it, thus likely increasing its loyalty and respect.

I REALLY don't get what the fuck is so hard to grasp.

>>30105073
People see giant monstrous hate-snake and think "UNLIMITED POWAH!!!"

>>30105039
Yeah, I think we should release the magicarp now and apologise to it.

Gyrados is gonna be our unruly pokemon though.

>>30105073
No we're not, just because you're still mad doesn't mean we're getting rid of it.

>>30105014
This isn't the game, there's no rule that says it won't listen to us.

>>30105129
Ursaring would beg to differ.

>>30105196
Ursaring doesn't listen to Vance because he doesn't have confidence, and he's still making progress with it without any badge.

>>30105129
In the game, the badge thing is only for traded Pokemon. It's to prevent your friend from trading you endgame stuff at the first gym. Something you catch and raise yourself will always listen to you.

In the story, it's much more likely that he won't listen, because it makes for a more dynamic story. If Ash's Charizard had been loyal, it would have required a lot more suspension of disbelief as to why he didn't use it to smash every fight.

long time lurker here just now caugh up. Gotta say Gobble, i love this quest, dont go Vedibere on me.

>>30105129
And anyway, the evolution happens at level 20, and in some games one badge means pokemon of level 20 will follow you. Others have no restrictions through level 30, if memory serves.

I want to at least look over its stats/move list

>In the story, it's much more likely that he won't listen, because it makes for a more dynamic story.
I do agree with you there, and I doubt it'll all go fine and dandy, but Kat still doesn't know how it will react to us. Plus, even if it's not our best friend there's no reason why Kat would give up on it.

>>30105276
Plus, flute powers.

>>30105261
I was waiting for that pic since first magicarp popped up in this quest.

>>30105098
Except it's pointless because we have a Magikarp that knows a fairly powerful move.

If we pick fights with like... a bug trainer or something, it should evolve in no time.

fuck you guys, we keeping the Gyarados and we are going to name him Gary

"Vlad! Go get that ball!"

Since he evolved into a Golbat, he's even faster. Despite his extra size, he moves gracefully in the air and grabs the ball with his mouth in a swift motion before it's able to float away. As he skims close to the water, you see a tentacle reach out and try to grab him. He's already passed over it before it had a chance. He returns and drops it in front of Eddie.

Eddie dives to grab the ball before it hits the ground. "If that landed the wrong way, it could have been really bad." He wipes the spit off of his hand before offering it to you in a handshake. "Thanks. I'm sorry about what I said earlier. Words just slip out sometimes."

Vlad gives your face a gigantic lick.

>Shake his hand, thank him for his help
>You just did it so Gyarados wouldn't float away. Reprimand him for being irresponsible.
>Ask what he's going to do with it
>Something else (write-in)

>>30105481
Shut the fuck up you asshole. Did you not hear what Gobble said about what makes pokemon likely to listen to their owners?

We had everyone attack that Gyarados, not even just our pokemon.

>>30105481
Why the fuck would we want one who won't listen to us,
The magikarp is fine, getting that gyarados was retarded.
We wasted three pokeballs thanks to you

Well this thread has started out well.

>>30105524
...Are you illiterate? Because you're clearly not reading the fucking Quest.

You know, the one in which two Magikarp evolved after beating one pokemon, and the one we caught knows Bounce.

>>30105531
What the fuck are you talking about, it was all us, except for one attack by Eddie who came out of nowhere, we didn't ask him.
>>30105538
Have we even taken him out, you dumb motherfucker? You know nothing about him, you're assuming he won't listen, and that he won't know bounce, and that aside it's still meta-gaming bullshit you're trying to push in.
Just because your still angry because other people wanted to do something different than you doesn't mean we're going to throw away a perfectly good pokemon.

Your the one bitching here, fuck off.

>>30105538
we can buy more balls

>>30105568
People are stupid and aren't reading the quest, and wasted all our pokeballs as a result.

>>30105531

It was 2v1 but we battled it solo.

>>30105599
We ARE kind of rich.

>>30105610
>The person bitching about catching a Gyrados complaining about other people
Oh no, god forbid we buy more pokeballs with our small fortune which can take us through the rest of the journey. It's not like pokeballs are for catching pokemon or anything

>>30105524
Apart from the fact that it's already near evolving, I think a gyarados that fucking listens to us is probably a better bet.
Also ten threads is no time at all in this quest.
But you seem to be about as impatient as a jew who's been told he has to wait five minutes to get a penny.

>>30105591
We already HAD a perfectly good pokemon but you were too much of an impatient baby to wait for one battle for it to evolve you asshole.

>>30105610
Meh, those are replaceable.

>>30105610

this aint a nuzlocke faggot,it's not like we can't buy more.

>>30105642
Even if you don't want it we can trade/sell it for something useful.

>>30105666
So what? That doesn't change that we got a duplicate pokemon for no reason at all.

>>30105413
>Shake his hand, thank him for his help

>>30105666
What's Nuzlocke?

You know, we love arguing but only four people have bothered to reply to the quest post, talking amoungst ourselves is good but not if it gets us nowhere.

>>30105698

>>30105698
Not a duplicate. One is an angry raging snake dragon thing, with moves we don't know, one is a nearly useless goldfish. If we get a handle on Gyrados, we can pass off the goldfish to Vance.

Besides, the Gyrados is a challenge. It's dynamic. Evolving the fish would be a slog.

>>30105642

do you know what level the Magikarp is at? No you do not, for all we know its level 5 and it will take 30 threads to evolve it into a Gyarados we already fucking have.

>>30105722

Some special rules a guy made up to make his runthrough harder. Got pretty popular.

1. You can only catch the first Pokemon you encounter in a new area.
2. If your Pokemon faint they are considered dead, release them.

>>30105756
Selling it may approach poaching, so it would be best to either train it along side magikarp or by itself, hold onto it to cross water, trade it, release it or something else.

>>30105795
That really doesn't sound that fun

>>30105774
...YOU ARE SO FUCKING STUPID TWO MAGIKARP EVOLVED FROM BEATING ONE MACHOP YOU ILLITERATE ASSHOLE.

AND MAGIKARP ALREADY KNOWS ONE REALLY GOOD MOVE, AND THEN IT'S GONNA BECOME A GYARADOS.

>>30105795
3.can't buy items at pokemart, can only use pokeballs you find on the ground in game.

>>30105809
poaching is illegal hunting.

>>30105876
Holy shit, you're really sperging out here.

>>30105827

Grinding a new Pokemon to replace a dead one is painful. I'm not talking emotionally, it's tedious as fuck.

>>30105785
Do you really fucking think Gobble is going to do that, after how little it took for those two Magikarp to evolve? You're an idiot who is horrible at pokemon.

"Thanks," you say as you shake his hand. "It could have been a lot of trouble if you weren't there."

"No problem. I wasn't even worried about my safety. I was hoping I'd look really cool!" He covers his mouth again. Eddie has an honesty problem.

You look over to Vance. Vance is looking good for someone who was literally punching a Gyarados. He's congratulating his Stunky on a job well done. He sees you and Eddie and begins to walk over.

"Let me go!" You hear Robin's voice coming from inside one of the ship doors. You're just able to see her feet kicking in the air. As you run over to investigate, you almost bump into the ship's captain.

"Let her go." The captain commands. The two crew members holding her let go of her skinny arms. Her feet hit the ground.

The captain pushes passed you. He's carrying some sort of launching device. He casually aims it into the air and fires off a cylinder the size of a can of soda. It explodes in the air high above the ship. A cloud of gas trickles down. It smells familiar.

"Industrial strength Repel," he explains. He turns back to Robin and the two crew members who were holding her. You recognize them as the same ones who pretended not to see the Magikarp jump back on the deck. "Standard regulations dictate that Repel is to be used if any wild Pokemon are found onboard the ship."

One of them protests. "They were just Magikarp!"

The captains glare is intense. "Yes," he says, staring them both in the eyes. "They were." He emphasizes the last word and the two crew members flinch. His gaze then settles on Robin. "You. I'm sorry, but I'll need to detain you."

Did he just say he's going to detain Robin?

>Ask why, he must have the wrong person
>Grab her and run. Figure it out when you're safe
>There's no way she did something wrong! Try to stop him (Verbally. Write-ins encouraged)

Yeah, it sounds like normal pokemon, only with 70% more grind

>>30105827
That's the point.

>>30105876
Cool your jets man, circumstances, those two may have been older or something, I think the point it Gyarados is ready now, while magikarp isn't evolved.
I don't see why we can't train both, Gyarados would be calmer with one of his pals around (maybe)

>>Ask why, he must have the wrong person

>>30105918
>Ask why, he must have the wrong person
But make sure to get between them so they can't try and haul her off before replying.

>>30105918
>Ask why, he must have the wrong person
The fuck, dude.

>>30105893
Well, I'm not sure of the proper term, point is selling a pokemon without the right license might be illegal.

>Ask why, he must have the wrong person
>>30105922
Because it's a waste of time.

>>30105876
What's this? Your Anon is evolving!

...

Congratulations! Your Anon has evolved into Spurglord!

>>30105947
That doesn't change the fact that they're just going to ditch that Magikarp we got because they have no patience and are deliberately ignoring that it knows Bounce and won't be hard to train.

>Ask why, he must have the wrong person

>>30105918

>shove Robin forward

It was all her, she's also a thief!

>>30105996
And how do you know this Gyrados doesn't know bounce?
How do you know the Magikarp won't grow just as angry? You're making quite a few assumptions here

>>30105996
we'll give it to Vance then. problem solved.

>>30105996
I think it would be good to have around Gyarados, so it would prehaps be a bit calmer.
When Magikarp evolves, it still wouldn't be a guarantee that it obeys, just like the gyarados we caught may not obey, since it's a violent pokemon anyway.

>>30106024
Because we'll train it and make sure to be nice to it until it evolves.

And Gyarados probably does know Bounce, doesn't make catching it any less of a retarded waste of time you infantile shithead.

One's male, one's female. We evolve magikarp but then they do nothing except try to bone each other.

>>30106201
But it won't be tedious because Magikarp is already close to evolving, knows a really strong move, and in this quest pokemon are living things with feelings, and you're being a shit trainer.

Two Magikarp only needed one battle to evolve, and do you really think Gobble would drag out training the Magikarp for ten threads just because that's how it is in the games?

Also just because Gyarados does doesn't mean it's worth getting.

"Detain Robin? What for? Whatever you think she did, you're wrong."

Vance comes up from behind you.

The captain turns to the two of you. "She was breaking into security lockers to get this." He lifts up the Repel canister launcher. "While I'm personally impressed with her quick thinking, procedure dictates that since she vandalized ship property, she is to be detained until an investigation is completed and reviewed by a qualified officer. Only after an official investigation has been filed or we dock can an officer release her."

"And who is the 'qualified officer?'" Vance asks. Both you and he shift between Robin and the captain, just in case.

"My first officer and myself. The investigation and filing will take at least a couple hours. Assuming no new evidence is found, I don't see there being any problems. I apologize for the inconvenience, but I think we've ignored enough regulations today." He barks the last part at his two crew members. They flinch again. They have the same guilty look you used to get when you were much younger and not quite so used to getting chewed out for breaking the rules.

Robin speaks up. "I'll go. I don't want to make any trouble." She meekly stares at her feet.

>If they're taking Robin, they're taking you too

>>30106310
Pokemon Trainers TRAIN their pokemon you idiot.

They don't just catch the already evolved version because it's easier.

>>30106237
we don't know Magikarp is close to evolving. those 2 Magikarps could have been a lot older than the other ones, and therefore had more experience.

>>30106301
Hey, I love the video games and I love the pokemon I play with, but it's hard to love every single thing you catch. you have to be selective about what you love, otherwise your love it meaningless.

Also, since this is probably like the anime, the pokemon we aren't carrying probably still get attention, like at Professor Oaks lab

>>30106327

I'm in favour of just sticking with the 6 we're using right now, but it doesn't particularly bother me either way.

We've gotta make sure they don't intimidate her or something, we've been through this a few times and know how to handle ourselves.

She'll cry and stuff if we leave her.

There's no way they'll find anything wrong anyway.

"Like hell. Robin was trying to save your damn ship, so if you're pissed at your crew the least you can do to thank her is to leave her out of it."

>>30106423
I don't really think that's how it works man.
>>30106410
I also don't think we should start a shouting match, stay calm.

>Something else
"Mind if I stay with her?"

>>30106410
No, man. He has a point. If anything we should have just asked why a passenger reacted faster than the crewmembers, without yelling.

>>30106447
You caught Gyarados because you have no patience and no trust in the QM, you dunce.

You took a fucking shortcut.

>>30106480
okay, there is no way someone is this angry about it. I detect a troll, just ignore him.

>>30106480
Stop talking out your ass, we caught the Gyarados because it was there and we are a pokemon trainer with some pokeballs.

In game we didn't even know what the fuck Magikarp evolved into before the Gyarados attacked so stop being a meta faggot and deal with it.

>>30106520
You thought Gobble would drag out training the Magikarp for ten threads because that's how it is in the games, even though that makes no sense.

>>30106480
>>30106565
Also it'd be good to point out that fainting the gyarados could cause damage too, since it might spur on others, or fall on the boat and break something.

>>30106345

"While we tried and succeded in saving your ship and passengers onboard you worry about protocol. Right. Better detain us too if you want to follow up on that line of thought. You know, pre-emptivemeasures. Besides, we dont abandon our friends because of jerks like you."

I personally I'm interested in seeing what the professor has to say about these souped up pokemons. I think two specimens from the same species at slightly different levels will yield more data than just one Magikarp.

I was going to make a point of that last thread, but then I was like "nah" so I didn't

"Objection! If your crew members hadn't stopped her, we wouldn't have had to endanger ourselves and our pokemon in attempting to fight off the Magikarp and resulting Gyrados that were endangering your ship. We could have died, and that's a black mark on your ship and your Captaincy. Furthermore, your crewmen knew about the Magikarp leaping on deck and, in actively prohibiting my friend here from reaching the Repel launcher, they were further endangering your passengers. There's no reason to punish her for trying to save your ship and your reputation! There's something else going on here."

>>30106716
Pheonix Wright pls go.

>>30106716
this.

people giving up without a fight....disgusting

>>30106704
I think we should ask Robin about that as soon as possible.
We've seen people carrying backpacks full of pokeballs in the anime, and the manga, so why are we limited?
That being said, we might not want to carry too many, or we might run the risk of accidentally losing one and not noticing

>>30106716
Hes just following the rules at this point man calm down. He said himself that there shouldn't be a problem.

>>30104868
Reasoning in Adventures/Special is that the League set the limit at six because beyond that number its unfeasible to train and bond with your 'mons

>>30106716
I think that's a little much, we're just getting through technicalities here.

On another note, how much XP do you think Dan and Trunks got from the battle?

>>30106751
Poke-laws. I think its a good thing. Imagine if team rocket were able to carry as many pokemon as they wanted.

>>30106781
I think you don't get XP unless you faint the opposing pokemon in the games. Catching them doesn't count.

>>30106751
The other thing is how people can get away with stealing Pokeballs when they are just teleported to a PC

>>30106810
it does in X and Y

>>30106758
He's also allegedly a pedo and I don't feel comfortable leaving Robin alone with this guy for a couple minutes, let alone a couple hours.

>>30106810
Well, apparently the magikarp got enough EXP to level from us defeating them, I don't think it's unreasonable to assume we got experience from catching them.

>>30106751
Well, I guess its just easirer for a quest-running reasons. And maybe people with full backpacks of pokeballs werent official trainers abiding League rules per se

>>30106826
That's why we go with her.
>>30106805
But team rocket commonly runs around with backpacks full of stolen pokemon that don't disappear.

>>30106848
that's because the pokemon aren't registered to them, and the pokeball doesn't know who's carrying it.

>>30106848
Disappearing happened first in the anime, but then it became the balls shrinked down and locked themselves.

>>30106826
Where did you get that information other than your imagination? Plus I didn't say we couldn't stay with her.
>>30106848
Yeah but they don't use the stolen pokemon do they? They probably have to do shit to get them usable.

>>30106899

"We just beat off the two Pokemon who were going to smash this boat to splinters, can you let her go in thanks for doing that?"

His face doesn't show any emotion. "I'm afraid not."

He's not budging on that front. Maybe you can try something else. "Mind if I stay with her?"

"I have to detain her because he vandalized ship property. I cannot allow you into the brig and I cannot just detain people for no reason."

"Fine! I'll 'vandalize ship property' too!" You push over a nearby glass. It bounces on the floor. "That was supposed to break."

He sighs. "Very well." He signals a crewman to take you along.

Vance steps forward. "I threw tables and chairs at that Gyarados. Take me too."

The captain puts his hands over his eyes. "Just detain them all until the investigation is complete." His body language makes him look annoyed, but his voice almost cracks. He turns away from everyone and looks out to the water. "Once the investigation is complete, I'd like to invite all of you to join me in my cabin for dinner." That seems like an odd request from someone who's arresting you and your friends. He doesn't wait for a response before he orders 4 other crew members to escort everyone to the brig.

One of the escorts, the one in charge, gives a respectful nod to the captain. "Captain Taylor, What about the Pokemon?"

"There are no regulations concerning that. I see no reason to separate them from their trainers." He puts his hands behind his back and walks off.

The captain walks out of sight and the other crewman takes charge. "You heard him, detain them all and take them to he brig!"

Eddie is taken too. He tries to protest. "I don't even know these people!" The guards debate over whether the captain meant to include Eddie too, but decide it's better to be safe than sorry. They did see you shaking hands.

The brig is a small room with several individual cells. They take your bags but let you keep your Pokeballs. You watch where they put your bags in the security room as well as you can as you're escorted into one large cell.

All but one of the crew members leaves. The remaining one walks into an adjacent security room that has a window looking into the holding cells. He's facing away as he watches the security cameras. You're separated by some sort of plexiglass, he (probably) can't hear you. There's a stranger in the other holding cell. He's sleeping on a bench, so you can't see his face.

Robin looks to you and Vance, and even Eddie. "You guys didn't have to do this. I don't think I'll be in trouble."

>Shrug it off. It's no big deal

Before you answer, you ask her something. "Is Eevee OK?" You ask. She nods. Good.

With that out of the way, you shrug to respond to her other comment. "It was no big deal. Arrested for the first time! I'm so proud, my little Robin is growing up so fast! You've entered the criminal world now and are on the fast track to delinquency." You wave around the cell in a grand gesture. "You're my partner in crime! Vance is our legbreaker if he wants to join Team Vandalism." Vance puts on his best thug face.

There's a round of laughs. Robin takes an extra second to get the joke. For a moment it almost looked like she was considering her new criminal life.

"What about me?" Eddie says.

"You can be our first victim." You give him a wicked grin. More laughs and giggles follow. You turn back to Robin, "I couldn't let you out of my sight. Something's fishy here."

Eddie throws his hands up. "What's fishy is how I was roped into this. Don't get me wrong, that was a touching little moment back there and I appreciate you getting my Gyarados, but I want to be on the deck with the tanning girls instead of here."

You ignore him and lean in close to Robin. "Like I could pass up a chance to re-enact a scene from a women's prison movie."

Robin turns scarlet and changes the subject. "E-Eddie! Y-y-ou caught a Gyarados?"

Eddie beams. "Yeah! I don't know if I'll train it or release it into the ocean though."

Robin nods. "That's right. Magikarp usually swim downstream into the ocean long before they evolve. These ones knew Bounce, so they must have been able to grow and get experience a lot faster than normal." She thinks for a moment, then looks back at you. "What else did I miss?"

You tell her all about what happened.

"That's amazing!" Both Robin and the stranger say at once. He was listening the whole time, just pretending to be asleep.

"Excuse me." He says. He's tall, dark, and handsome. His black hair extends below his shoulders. "I y'am Antonio." He reaches for your hand through the bars to try to kiss your hand. His accent isn't one you've heard before, but you haven't heard many.

You pull your hand away before he can grab it and lay his lips on it.

"Eet ees simple. I snuck aboard to meet, how you say...beautiful, rich women."

So he's a harmless charmer and conman. You give him your hand. This might be interesting. "I'm Kat, this is Robin, Vance, and Eddie."

Vance makes his gigantic presence known. "Just because she won big at the poker table doesn't mean she's a good target, friend."

Oh for the love of- Way to go Vance! Just tell the stranger you have money. Usually it's Robin that lacks street smarts in situations like this. Wait, did he just imply you fit the other qualification for this guys targets? That time at the spa did leave you feeling a little pretty.

Antonio shrugs. Somehow it feels like his shrugging even carries an accent. "I mean nho disrespec', my large friend. I am simply helplessly honest in the presence of beauty."

Eddie rolls his eyes. You do the same, but make sure nobody catches you. This Antonio guy is shameless.
