To catch them is my real test.

>>3950
"I don't know what they're going to do with it, or even if they'll be able to get it out safely. I'm directing you to them because they'll know."

>>3949
Do do dododo

 No.3953

>>3951
"S-safely?"
You can't call them to check the status of things or anything, can you?"

 No.3954

Alright… Now, send out Clyde!

 No.3955

Where was I?

 No.3956

Oh no, did I oversleep? Is Shauna still here? Quick wake up!

>>3953
"How? The system is down."

>>3954
You deploy Clyde in the Pokemon Center.

>>3955
Route 8… the Warren Route. This place is loaded with trainers and rodent Pokemon.

You can traverse it without encounters if you roll successfully – or if you want, roll for Pokemon search. Alternatively, survey for opponents.

>>3956
You're alright. Shauna is up and out of the shower.

"Big day, huh?"

Nod with a smile "Yep, breakfast first, then the shrine! Are you gonna come watch Shauna?"

 No.3962

>>3958
You got stopped by a Youngster!

"I'm gonna try out my new Pokemon on you!"

YOUNGSTER KYLE wants to fight

Do it, Gilda!

>>3959
Clyde regards you curiously.

>>3960
"Yeah, I got the machine. They already put up an automated message warning everyone that the national system is down."


>>3961
"Sure, of course!"

 No.3963

Take out the Return Stone.
"This will return you to your previous evolution… that way you're not bound to a single form. Isn't that amazing?"

 No.3965

>>3963
Your progress is halted by a wild Drifloon on the East Road!

>>3964
Clyde… 'barks' at you? You're not sure how to describe the noise he makes.

 No.3966

>>3962
Smile again and get ready for the day. Are Shauna's parent's here, I should say thank you to them.

They're at the table, eating pancakes.

They give you a friendly nod. Shauna seems a little nervous.

"Hey… I'm going to go watch Emily visit the shrine today."

"Be safe, dear."

>>3967
It's a warm bark.

>>3968
It's super effective!

Drifloon used Hypnosis!

He returns to Eevee form in a flash.

Nod. "There aren't a lot of kids here in town huh?"

 No.3976

>>3974
It seems odd to hear his non-metallic voice and see him all fluffy again. You check his moveset. Yep, still knows Iron Defense.

>>3975
"No… it's such a same, all of them move out and don't come back. Get corrupted by those big city ideas – lose their values!"

"I heard that city trainers don't love their pokemon, but how could so many from a town like this forget.." I look sad for a moment and then. "Oh, is it okay to have pokemon at table? I want you to meet Solaire, since you've been so nice to me."

Fandago!

"It's okay… here in Sapshire we're friends to Pokemon."

Upon exiting the city, you come to a great tree which splits your path. Left or right?

 No.3983

>>3982
Um… Right!

 No.3984

The road ahead is rife with tall grass.

There's a dirt road down the right hand side that leads to an area with less foliage.

They seem polite enough about it.

"He looks very sweet, dear."

Her father clears her throat. "Shauna, your mother and I have been talking about this throughout the night. We know your friend helped you catch a Pokemon."

Shauna gasps. "How did you know?!"

"Moms just know these things."

"In any case… we've decided to let you keep it."

"Oh! That's really good news!"

"But you need to be responsible for it, or else it will go back into the wild."

"Okay, okay, I will!"

You traverse the remainder of the Forest Road unmolested, and arrive at the gates of Fandango City.

>>4004
The bugs here seem pretty used to avoiding being stepped on, so you have no trouble evading them.

You arrive at the shrine – it looks pretty normal. It's a nice building – concrete, even, which isn't common out here in the countryside. Last place you saw that was in Fandango with those big, modern docks.

 No.4006

Enter! A new, fresh town!

Roll #1 10 = 10

Right, now that I've got a few new additions, I'll head back into Crimsonborough proper. Get everyone healed up. Then start towards Cyan city. I'm going to need a water type for the fire shrine.

 No.4009

>>4006
This is the closest thing you've seen to a city since you left Vanilla: there's a large, modern dock here, and the city – though mostly old, is undergoing rapid expansion. New buildings, new houses… the smell of progress is in the air. Down at the docks, fishermen pass the day catching what they can.

>>4007
You knock on the door, and a shrine worker lets you in, along with Shauna. He leads you up a flight of stairs, and you can see the main room of the shrine from here through a pane of glass – it's full of hives, and swarming with Combee!

The shrine worker offers you some special clothes.

"You'll want to wear these while inside."

>>4008
Do do dododo

You start making your way toward the sea. Roll to traverse the road and bridge.

 No.4010

Maybe I'll get lucky and run into a water type! '1d10'

Put on the clothes. "Wow.. do you guys make honey here?"

You pass the road uneventfully. There was a nice little wooden trading post on your left.

You arrive at the Great Bridge to Cyan City.

Roll #1 5 = 5

 No.4014

A trading post? Let's check that out.

 No.4015

>>4011
"Quite a bit, yes! And we also provide these Combee with a home – we usually rescue them from swarms or hives that have lost their Vespiqueen and wouldn't survive otherwise."

>>4013
There's a road out the north side that leads to Sapshire – the Market Road. To the northwest, there's a trail that has a sign indicating it leads to the city's shrine. You note the red roof of the Pokecenter. Down at the docks, Fishermen are busy collecting a bounty of Tentacool. There's a fancy cruise liner here, but there are also smaller vessels.

>>4014
The Northern Trader

Looks like a little shop.

Oooh, let's follow the northwest road! Maybe we can find some pokémon to practice on!

"Lost their Vespiqueen? How?" I frown.

 No.4018

>>4015
Well, let's see what they've got for sale.

 No.4019

>>4017
"Sometimes it's natural – bad luck with weather, disease, hive wars. Other times, city trainers come in and catch them with no regards for how that will affect the local Combee."

>>4016
You're assaulted by a Ekans from above! You're in charge, Wilbur!

>>4018
They sell a little of everything – pokeballs, great balls, ultra balls, potions, super potions, max potions, escape ropes, smoke balls.

The man at the county notes you looking around. "We also do specials that change daily, usually related to trading. Today's special is Reaper Cloth!"

 No.4022

>>4019
"A reaper cloth? That's something for a ghost type, right?"
I'll peruse the balls. How much do they look like they cost?
"And I'm surprised you've got everything laid out here. Usually stores need at least two certifications to even put out Great balls."

 No.4023

Ekans used Poison Sting!

The buzzing is ubiquitous here. It surrounds you on all sides.

The Shrine Keeper is on the other side of the gym…

>>4022
"Oh, City Boy are you? This is the country. We even sell some specialty balls here… Quick Balls, Moon Balls, Love Balls, et cetera."

They cost a little more than city prices.

250P for a Pokeball

700P for a Great Ball

Ultraballs are 1400P.

"If you want to see Herbert, you're going to have to defeat us!"

Shauna adds, "I've got your back, Emily!"

SHRINE WORKERS JOE AND JIM want to fight!

Do it, Solaire!
Joe sent out Heracross!
Jim sent out Surskit!

Heracross fainted!

The guy is tall and has wispy brown hair. He is about your age.

The guy is average height and wears glasses. He is a little older than you.

They look embarrassed and quickly return to working with hives.

I can tell you're still a little green for them, but the long story short is that we delve into the lairs of extremely powerful Pokemon as a group in search of loot and experience. Pokemon there are much harder to catch - most of the time it's impossible or near impossible, even with high quality balls. Anyway, come back when you're less green and you can group up for a crawl."

Guess that's that. I'll keep that in mind, since I might be able to find legendary pokemon like Bismarck's Meloetta on those dungeon crawls.

Groggy though you may be, today is an exciting day: today is your last day at the Tianxia State Academy for Pokemon Trainers, the most prestigious school in your country.

If you can pass the National Trainers' Exam today, you will graduate and become a full Pokemon trainer! It looks like you slept through the review session, though… the test will be starting soon. Your roommate is long since gone.

Glancing around your chambers you notice your PC, your random effects… clothes, backpack, wallet, and most importantly, your Pokedex. This is the new gen – Pokedex 7. It has all the features of a Pokegear and more built in. Phone, flashlight, video camera, and of course, the most accurate useful Pokedex functions to date. It can on the fly identify Pokemon by type, information, level, and wild/owned status.

Your school is quite nice: the nicest in the country, and it has both a reputation and bill to match. You are thankful that your parents could afford to send you here. For the last two years you've been learning the fundamentals of Pokemon training, and now you're on the way to the test that will decide if you were paying attention. You pass through the quad, thick with greenery, water features, and braziers and absently wonder if they're intended to represent the Types. Your education, after all, has focused on Composition of teams.

1. A hypothetical typing of Poison/Steel would be 4x weak to _______.

2. Overall, the typing with the best ratio of resistances and weaknesses is _______.

3. The type which typically levels up and evolves faster than any other is ________.

4. Of the 18 types, this is the only type to have dual type Pokemon shared with all other 17 types. __________

You recall that anyone can receive a Trainer Card by passing the Tianxia National Trainers' Exam, though you'd need to find somewhere they administer it.

Unless that was a more general 'what else can I do' – there are two other routes that don't lead to Server Valley, and Phlox City you know from growing up here is full of sights.

You notice a few other classmates have already finished their tests. They're headed into the backroom to hand them in. Once you're ready, you should head in there and see if you passed.

>>4244
There's a reason Phlox City is one of the most popular, bustling, tourist attractions in all of Tianxia. Every summer you deal with thousands of tourists flocking to see the bright sights of Phlox. Everything here is beautiful from the painted buildings to the guerrilla art on the sidewalks. You never really had much of an appreciation for it before, when you were always cooped up in your room. The Psychic Shrine is here, along with an abundance of Pokemon bonding amenities, such as Name Raters, Pokemon Salons, Massage Parlors, and of course, the core of Tianxia's PokePuff and Poffin industries.

"Impressive! You missed only one – see this one here? The Flying type shares Pokemon with all other types, though mostly Normal."

You realize that even if you had missed all five you thought about, the other 35 would have cushioned you. Fucking modern casual video game difficulty. You'll complain about this on an imageboard later, but now you can't complain, because your Trainer Card is printing out! Hey, it even has your picture on it!

"You're still allowed to traverse it toward Phlox City if you stay inside the gated area. Have a nice day – and don't mention it, it's what we're here for."

Storm seems to have gathered herself now and is following you, albeit looking about nervously. The city seems to be a bit sensory overload: route 10 will be good for here. And good for you, too: This route is quite a sight. Compared to the drab, efficient concrete of Covalent City, Route 10 is a welcome splash of color. The treeline here is full of berries, a number of which have fallen freely to the ground. Pokemon and trainers alike gorge themselves on the free food. Not bad!

"You look done."

Hannah fell asleep!!

Hannah is fast asleep…

>>4444
>>4445
Let's just say you picked it up instead of forgetting.

"Papers, please."

>>4443
This is the only place. Of course, you should probably let someone know she ditched…

 No.4447

>>4446
Thank the miracles that happen at times like this as I pull it out.

"Here, inspector."

Show them.

 No.4448

He correlates the blank spot on the desk with a rule in his book.

"Where is your ID card?"

>>4448
You're at an impasse, then!

You're in charge, Clyde!

Clyde used Sand Attack!

Gastly's attack missed.

Gastly used Shadow Ball!

Gastly L16 [▓▓░░░░░░░░]

Clyde L17 [▓▓▓▓▓▓░░░░]

Hannah is fast asleep…

>>4452
He makes another correlation with the card.

"This passport says you are a man."

>>4453
That wouldn't get the shop to open up much sooner, would it?

 No.4455

>>4454
"..yes, that is correct."

 No.4456

>>4455
"Turn towards the scanner."

 No.4457

Well, no I'll just have to go back to Fandango

There's a flash. A few seconds later he scrutinizes a printout and stamps your passport then hands it back.

"Glory to Tianxia."

>>4460
Yeah you're right.

Clyde used Sand Attack! Gastly's accuracy fell!

Gastly used Sludge Bomb!

"Back among the living?"

Your progress comes to a jolting halt when an enormous Snorlax blocks the way.

Yeah

Let's just go in. Center first. Take care of Mismar.

"… That was a low blow. Clyde, good job… but get back for now."
Return Clyde.
Send out Durian!

Alright.

Go otuside and look around Server Valley. See if there's any signs for where I'm looking for, the PC storage HQ or whatever it is.

 No.4474

The datacenter is a large and imposing concrete building with windows only on the first floor, which is odd, but you don't make a fuss about it as you head inside. There's a large lobby, and a woman at the desk.

>>4473
Gastly fainted!

SHRINE KEEPER CHARLOTTE is about to send in Croagunk. Will Hannah change Pokemon?

 No.4475

>>4471
Awesome, now bring it back to where snorlax is blocking the road.. and find a good place to set the honey comb so I can try to lure Snorlax off the road. Have Venom help with this. '1d10'

 No.4478

>>4475
You're right, I meant Zubat. Still want Lyra?

>>4476
"Extracted? Hm… not that I know of… do you know the extension you want to reach?"

>>4475
Venom sticks it in a tree near the cliff, and the Snorlax rolls over to get at it. The way is clear!

It was super effective!

Zubat used Sludge Bomb! A critical hit! Lyra fainted!

Zubat L14 [▓░░░░░░░░░]

There is no tall grass in the way, so you make it unmolested.

She pulls out a script and starts reading directly from it.

"Hm… have you tried rebooting your PC?"

 No.4484

Grrr…
Send out Durian!

Roll #1 4 = 4

"Well, well, it seems you've come through the other side victorious. Not bad. For defeating me, you've won the antidote to that sleep poison, and the Mist Badge – for learning that with your team, you can cut through the mists of deception. I'd also like to give you TM36 – Sludge Bomb. Sludge Bomb packs a punch and has a chance to poison."

Look around for a directory.

"Oh, we always get interesting folks from the docks. Most interesting for me was my Great Ball shipment just got in! In fact, if you want to upgrade those 2 Pokeballs to Greatballs, I have a special price going on. It would just be 500P more for both, not each. As for folks coming in instead of product – I'm a little worried. That big megachain, MART, is starting to build a kiosk in the local Center…"

>>4496
You turn around… the swirling mists still surround you on all sides. You cannot navigate them.

Charlotte smiles. "Need some help?"

 No.4499

I frown.
"How can this place be this big… Yes please."

 No.4500

He escorts you out of the building.

"Don't forget the mists…"

And with that, he fades back into them.

"Oh ho ho, you flatter me, but you know for some folks it's all about where you can save more. I'm afraid they'll run me out of town like they did to the shops in the Rings."

 No.4502

Now get back to the pokecenter so my poor pokemon can get healed up!

 No.4504

Alright, is there a store in this town? I should treat my pokemon to some tasty snacks.

 No.4508

>>4505
Bzzzzzz

You ride up to floor six. There's nothing here. The entire floor has been gutted…

>>4506
Only one. It's a little shop near the docks.

>>4507
He gives a sad shrug. "I'm sure you're right, but I hope it doesn't come to that. I'm getting up there, I don't have many moves left in me!"

 No.4509

>>4508
Nice.
Let's pay it a visit!

 No.4510

>>4508
What do you mean gutted?

There's nothing here?

Go to 7 in that case.

frown. "You should sell something special, that the MART could never copy, that would make people come here instead!"

 No.4512

>>4510
This floor is full of cubicles, but it's a lot more busy! People are talking through walls, throwing paper planes, and chatting on phones, all while sitting at computers.

>>4509
There's a girl here, chatting with an old-but-not-quite-elderly shopkeeper.

He nods, "That's not a bad idea, but I wonder what people want? Oh well – food for thought. Oh, sorry – just a moment. Sorry, welcome to the shop miss. Just have a look around for what you need."

Go up to one of them.

"Excuse me… I'm a visitor here, but your receptionist would not receive me. I need to know if there's a department here that hold pokemon that had to be extracted from the PC system."

 No.4514

"Thanks!"
What do they sell here?

Roll #1 7 = 7

 No.4515

>>4512
Curiously examine the newcomer.
"Food is the right track of mind! A snack that can only be found here! Maybe.. something with bread and honey? Sapshire has loads of honey, and Harvest Plains has loads of bread, both of those are close by!"

 No.4516

>>4513
"Oh yeah, those receptionists are garbage. Don't even bother with the phone department. Go talk to Chad down in 14C."

She looks like she's ill-at-ease in the country. Probably cityfolk.

"Maybe. That's not a bad idea. I'll see what they have to say."

 No.4517

>>4516
Awwww… No pokéfood? Pokéblocks? Tasty berries?
I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea to invest in a great ball and a super potion.

 No.4518

>>4516
"14C? Where's that?"

 No.4519

>>4516
"Good luck then! I'll come back some time later to get a taste of it!"
City folk huh? Lets go say hi…
"Hello?"

 No.4520

>>4519
"Uh… hi? Are you looking for a battle?"

 No.4521

>>4518
"Two rows over, thirteen down. It'll say Chad on his cubicle, guy."

He glances over at you, "Just let me know when you're ready."

"Yes, good luck on your journey!"

 No.4522

"I was just wondering if you came from the boats, they look so cool! But.. If you want to fight, that's okay.. but We shouldn't fight in here."

 No.4523

>>4521
"Excuse me, but do you sell berries or pokéfood here too? Pokéblocks maybe?"

>>4522
"Oh, no, I just thought you approached me looking for a challenge! I just got back from the shrine here in town. And no, I came in from the south road."

 No.4524

>>4521
"Thanks a lot. Really. I appreciate it."

Follow his directions.

Oh boy…

 No.4525

>>4523
"Oh, you just fought Charlotte then? She's a neat lady isn't she?"

 No.4526

>>4523
"Not right now – there is a little food place down the street that sells those, though."

>>4524
There's a guy in this cubicle blowing bubbles with his gum and writing code with one hand while browsing an imageboard with the other.

 No.4527

>>4525
"Well… I wouldn't say that. But it doesn't matter now, I got what I came for. All that's left to do now is to somehow reward my team for fighting so well."

 No.4528

>>4526
"Oh! What's it called?"

 No.4529

>>4526
"Hey, uh, excuse me? Your colleague told me you might be able to help me. See, I believe a Pokemon of mine has been removed by you guys from the system, and you guys might be holding onto it now."

 No.4530

>>4528
"The old Doughnut King."

>>4529
He pops a bubble at you.

"Yep. Actually, one sec…"

He minimizes his other screen and uses both hands for a minute, typing something into a command box.

"Nasty piece of work. Actually kept me interested for a few minutes. Backdoor is closed, now. Frankly should've done it ages ago, but corporate wants more optimized size data. Anyway, barely anyone uses boxes anymore."

Another round of tapping on his keyboard.

"Gimme a sec."

He reaches down and pulls out some kind of weird electronic USB device and plugs it into his computer, then taps away some more. "Got a Pokeball on you?"

 No.4531

>>4530
"Yeah, I do."

I have a spare, right? Take out one.

 No.4532

>>4530
"I'll keep that in mind, thanks sir!"

 No.4533

>>4527
"That's a good idea. But you said you came from the south, does that mean you're leaving on the docks, or are you going north?"
I look curiously at you.
"I'm Emily by the way."

 No.4534

>>4530
>>4531
"Anyway… so boxes are pretty unpopular nowadays? Is a ranch plot that affordable for everyone?"

 No.4535

>>4533
"My name is Hannah, I'm from Adapt City! I think I'll actually go back the way I came! I challenged a gym there and lost, so I wanted to give it another shot now that I'm stronger."

 No.4536

>>4531
>>4534
Plenty.

As he works he remarks distractedly, "Well, most people don't have more than six Pokemon anyway… the super rich have ways of getting around it… and yeah most trainers are being PC about their PC, if you get my meaning. Environmentalist movement, load of crap. If you don't want to abandon your Pokemon, how about you stop at six? Anyway, point being people are moving away from boxes. Which is terrible for us because we use Porygon for all our testing because they love Boxes. They were made for Boxes."

He sticks it on the device and taps away some more. The device and ball buzz and slide down the desk a few inches.

"Gotcha… and uh, one sec…"

He prints something out from the computer.

"Here… a voucher for a new Pokeball at a MART. It has to be a MART, though – part of the chain, got it? You good? We good? All good? Okay good. Have a nice day, brotha."

With that he returns to coding with one hand and browsing with his other.

>>4532
"Sure, sure. Anything I can do for you here?"

 No.4537

>>4536
Should I buy a great ball… or wait?
"Hmmm… no, that's all I needed. Thanks sir."

 No.4538

>>4537
He seems a little disappointed.

"Sure thing. Have a nice day, little miss."

 No.4539

>>4535
Look at my map for adapt city. "Oh, that means you've been to vanilla city. Have you ever heard of either of these items? A Monitor Sash or a Smoker?"

 No.4540

>>4536
"Oh, goodness… thank you so much. And I'm very sorry for all the trouble I caused. How does one safely keep a Rotom? Also, I had thought most people thought of 'catching them all' quite favourable. I mean, I don't know if I want to do that, I learned to breed Pokemon. But it's pretty hard to imagine stopping at 6 when there are so many to raise."

 No.4541

>>4538
Aw.
"Well actually… I should probably make sure I'm better prepared. I'll buy one of these super potions."

>>4539
"I've heard of a focus sash… but not of those two items you just mentioned, sorry. There's an academy there that teaches all about items. I'm sure the teachers there will be able to help you."

 No.4542

>>4540
He nods and keeps chatting while he works.

"Yeah, most people play lip service to that but no one really expects to get all, what, 700? Hey, listen, you want to catch em all?"

>>4541
He seems much more pleased now. "Sure thing, do you want a bag for that?"

 No.4543

>>4541
"Okay. I'll have to stop by there eventually then.. I'm going to head north again once I leave here, I have a lot of shrines to visit still.."

 No.4544

>>4542
"No thanks!"

>>4543
"I bet! If you're ever in Adapt city, be sure to check out professor Orange's laboratory!"

 No.4545

>>4542
"I don't think so. I can't imagine raising them all. Though one day I might have to start catching a lot, if my dreams of research are going to come true."

Do I have 7 pokemon with me now?

 No.4546

>>4544
"Proffessor Orange.. I'll remember that name! Have you been to the Grass shrine as well? "

 No.4547

>>4546
"Yup! The keeper there was very nice and I managed to get a badge from it."

 No.4548

>>4547
"Corwin gave you a scroll? Neat! You know I'm from Mint Town, Corwin gave me my Oddish." Beam with pride.

 No.4549

>>4548
"Wow… Oddish is an interesting one, with its branching evolution path. I got my first pokémon from the professor, an Eevee!"

 No.4550

>>4549
"Yea, oddish needs stones right? And so does an eevee?" cautiously bring out the leaf stone to show off "I got really lucky and found this."

 No.4551

>>4545
"I detect confusion in your voice, oh Swami. This building has a blocker on it to prevent the system from automatically transporting your seventh Pokemon to the system for research purposes. You should deposit one down on a public terminal on floor one before you go or it'll be roulette. As for your answer… eh, take this anyway."

He types at an extremely rapid pace, going through eight windows in less than a second! A CD pops out and he hands it to you.

Got Up-Grade!

 No.4552

>>4551
"This is to upgrade a Porygon, isn't it? I've read about it… I can't thank you enough. And, uh, how can I store my Rotom safely?

 No.4553

>>4552
"Like I said, I patched the hole. It's not a big deal. Frankly, I should thank you for getting the President to finally listen to me for once."

 No.4554

>>4550
"Oh my! A leaf stone! Eevee evolves in all kinds of things, and not just with stones. That leaf stone will get you a vileplume though!"

 No.4555

>>4553
"So it's alright to store my Rotom in now? You guys are… pretty amazing. Again, thanks a lot!"

Get down to the ground floor and deposit Yiman. I'm keeping Ampere with me for now.

 No.4556

>>4555
"Sure thing, guy. Take it easy."

Deposited.

 No.4557

>>4554
Smile and put it away. "That means I can use it when Solaire is ready. Thanks Hannah.." then blink "Oh, you said you were hungry, lets go to the doughnut shop for a snack while we talk, I'd love to meet your Eevee as well."

 No.4558

>>4556
Hmmm. Server Valley is ap retty nice place.

if this place is for research, I better get myself familiarized and all.

See if I can find a map somewhere about the popular buildings.

 No.4559

>>4557
"Sure! His name is Clyde."
To the doughnut shop!

 No.4560

>>4558
No maps about. This place is full of homogenous fancy buildings – mostly filled with windows. The thing that made the datacenter stand out was the lack of windows. You do see specific signs for a fossil research institute, the local gym, tons of restaurants, a few companies, the national pokedex compilation center, and more.

>>4559
It looks like more of a minimart with a doughnut factory built in, but the name is indeed Doughnut King.

The real attraction are the doughnuts, though. You even see a whole plate of them cooling on the counter.

"Welcome to Doughnut King!"

"600P for a dozen fresh doughnuts, or 80P a piece. You can get whatever toppings you want, too."

Into the national archives it is. It is very quiet here – you see a sign asking as much. People are studying large books and at computer terminals here, but most of the room is taken up by shelves and huge computer servers. Whenever you look something up from your Pokedex, it's coming from this room!

Solaire carefully smells each one before choosing a sprinkled doughnut.

Rena skiddishly prods at a plain one.

Blue scarfs a chocolate doughnut immediately. You suspect he has a Gung-Ho nature.

Willow prods at a chocolate doughnut with her nose before eating it.

Venom nibbles on a glazed doughnut.

Blink nips up a sprinkle doughnut and retreats below.

>>4584
Clyde looks to you as if unsure they're allowed.

Wilbur sweeps down and nabs a chocolate doughnut, though. And Lyra equally quickly grabs a sprinkle.

Miles takes cues from Clyde, and Durian slowly rolls over to the pile, where he selects a glazed Doughnut.

He directs you toward a metal box rigged up to a cable machine. Inside there's a console with a stick.

>>4672
He thinks for a moment.

"Well, this is unfair for me to answer, since I know you're talking about Shauna. I'll let her parents know if you have any information, but if you ask me, even if they find her, she's not coming home until she's had her fill of adventure.

>>4675
You carefully avoid most of the tall grass in the first part of the Old Road. More traversal lies ahead!

>>4677
The elevator hums slightly as you ride down. It quickly grows boring, watching row after row of nondescript rock. Even inside your suit, though, you can tell it's getting hotter. Before long, you have arrived at the bottom of the shaft, and the metal cage door on the elevator pops open. Up ahead, out in the middle of an outcropping of rock, you see another suited figure, working at some device. She turns and waves at your approach. Or – you assume she anyway.

"And now you came here after all. How interesting. And what did you come to learn?"

>>4684
Back in Sapshire.

>>4685
Slowpoke fell asleep!

Slowpoke is fast asleep.

"Not for a city boy! You're lucky I used the right-level team for you!"

>>4686
You uneasily scale it, using the grating as footing. You finally reach up for a handhold on the cab and something furry touches your hand… you can't see what it is from here at your climbing angle.

 No.4688

Okay, now gather a bit of honey while I'm here '1d10'

You picked all that honey earlier! There's a lot of sweet sap about, but no more honey combs.

Something hisses at you and scratches your hand. Ack! you're bleeding!

You pull yourself up to cab level just fast enough to see a serpentine tale retreat around the other side of the cab.

>>4692
You carefully edge around the cabin to where you saw the tail, when you get hit from behind, falling off the back of the tractor onto the route below – Miles carefully skips down after you.

A Liepard smugly watches you from where you previously stood on the back of the tractor. At least you're over it.

>>4693
You scrape some off of the trees, although the local bugs don't seem too happy about it…

 No.4695

>>4694
I'll frown at him.
"Orrrr I'm here to see if my pokemon and I are equal to this challenge. The money's just a bonus. Sleepy, hit him again with another headbutt. '1d10'

 No.4699

"Hmm… how predictable. Just as well, it was a fair enough answer. Are you ready?"

>>4696
Rena seems much more pleased with this sap and hungrily devours it before curling up and settling down on your hat to soak up some rays.

>>4697
It was super effective!

Liepard fled!

>>4695
A critical hit!

Slowpoke is fast sleep…

"It's all about fighting to you! You just want to test yourself in battle and get money, like I said! You don't even deny it. That's why you're hated out here. Don't get angry with me because of how you choose to live."

I know people can live perfectly happy lives with their pokemon without ever getting into a battle. But I make sure my team knows what it's getting into! They fight with me because they trust me to see things through with them! So I'm going to see this through, one way or the other. Sleepy, finish it off with a Headbutt!" '1d10'

She nods.

"Good, then let's begin. Please, join me here, on the ledge. See below? This is the hottest place you can safely go inside the mountain."

Far, far below there is a pit of roiling pitch. Extreme heat rises from it.

"We are going to meditate here. Whoever's team can meditate the longest will win. Are you ready to prove your will?"

SHRINE KEEPER KLARA wants to meditate!

SHRINE KEEPER KLARA sent out Darmanitan!

You're in charge, Needlenose!

Roll to meditate.

>>4705
You dropped off Willow, you have an open space now.

>>4706
You push through the first pack of grass without incident. Roll to traverse.

Got 400P for winning!

>>4709
It's a monthly fee. "For just 50P a day, your Pokemon can live free."

What that really translates to is 1500P a month.

>>4710
You push through another layer of thick grass without confrontation. Nearly half way…

>>4711
Needlenose held strong!

Darmanitan held strong!

Darmanitan [▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓░]

Needlenose [▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓░]

Do do dododo

Once you grab it, the water level begins to lower, and you ride it down several floors, until finally it opens up into a huge cavern.

Water drips with such frequency and intensity here, it's as though you're in the middle of a huge storm. It is ceaselessly pouring… you wish you had an umbrella.

You don't suspect that will be an issue.

You push through more tall grass and are confronted by Houndoom! Do it, Clyde!

You see a lone figure out with a lantern on an island in the middle of the storm… your buoy slowly drifts toward the island until it finally makes contact.

>>4721
Fall road. How odd… it seems frozen in time. While the rest of the world has moved on to a very mild winter, the leaves of the Fall Road remain forever in a burnt orange twilight. It all begins with a brief passage through a very small cave entered from Sapshire, and you're off. You know the walk won't be far to Autumn Glen from here…

You head over to the department store. On the first level they sell some basic held items. Looks like second floor is for advanced held items. Third, TMs. Fourth, evolutionary items, and the fifth is the food court.

Several of both of those – and more!

Tentacool fell asleep!

He yells over the storm at you: "NOT JUST THAT! WHILE WAILMER IS HOLDING MY STORM BALL, HURRICANE IS CONSIDERED A WATER-TYPE MOVE, MEANING ITS ACCURACY AND POWER ARE BOTH BOOSTED BY THIS RAGING STORM!"

"Astounding, such focus! I'm truly impressed with you, young trainer. You've proven you have the force of will to resist mighty heat, and a meditative spirit to match my own. For your victory here, you have earned the Pebble Badge – for understanding even the simple pebble can weather intense heats that we would balk at! You are able to focus your mind down to that pebble where you and your team become impenetrable! I'd also like to give you TM35.

It encourages it, through arcane means not fully understood. Some call this pseudoscience "voodoo breeding", but you can't argue with results. Well, you can. Mostly by calling it voodoo or pseudoscience.
