    Where has Aragornbird gone?

    Pikachu101- You ask the Magikarp if he knows where you can find food for the Skarmories. He seems to be too scared to talk, but you wait patiently until he gains enough strength to reply.
    "I don't know what they can eat," he said. "They didn't use to be here. But then they came and attacked us! They came out of nowhere and started feeding on my family and friends."

    -What will you do now?


    Nala98- You tell Alexa that you will do your best, and ask her if she has any idea as to where we need to go, or if she needs help going back to where she belongs.
    "I can't go home now," she tells you. "They'll come back for me. I want to stay with you."
    One look at her face tells you that she's determined to follow you. You then ask her where she thinks you should go to.
    "The Gengar said something about Pixie Island," she replies. "Do you know anything about that place?"

    -Do you?... And what will you do now?

    Sorry for the delay, anyways here's the rest of the updates except for Rachel's. I didn't really get her part of the story and I don't have time, since I have to leave to go to Miami soon. Okay, that's that and happy holidays everyone!

    -What will you do? Go through the tunnel? Take the straight path? Try to heal the Paras (and then do something)? Or do something else?
    Location: A cave in a forest, Art Island
    Food: 5
    Pokedolls: 5
    CCPs and Stamps: 79 CCPs/73 Stamps
    Pokemon: Aeragorn (LV11 Skarmory, M) Dargonis (LV7 Aerodactyl, M) Slakoth (LV9, F)
    Items: 1 Faerie Pellet

    Whoa, can't be anything good in that tunnel. And I don't have anything to heal the Paras with, so I'll travel carefully through the path.

    *~*~*~*

    Gabi-
    Lagi glares angrily at his formidable opponent. With a great flap of his wings, he soars into the air until he is high above the Rayqauza. Blue electricity crackles between his antennae and with a loud roar he fires it forward, aiming at the green dragon’s head. The Thunder Wave attack races through the sky like bright blue lightning, but the Rayquaza is incredibly fast and disappears in the blink of an eye. Lagi gapes in disbelief. Where did it go? But his question was soon answered as a bright green blur cuts through the air, slamming into his back with a tremendous force. In between surges of extreme pain, he could hear the sinister laughter of the Rayquaza.
    “Mwahahaha! Do you truly believe a simple attack like that can stop me? I know Extreme Speed as well as an entire arsenal of other attacks!” Lagi wheeled around and glowered even more fiercely as his opponent twisted his long serpentine body in midair. He opened his mouth wide and a glowing orb formed inside it. With another roar, he launched his Ice Beam across the sky. This time, the Rayquaza did not vanish, but reared his head and released a blazing Flamethrower attack. The two attacks collided in midair, one hot and one cold. The result was an outburst of thick steam that surrounded the area and enveloped both dragons. For the moment, you cannot see anything and neither can Lagi.
    What will you do now?

    Cyndaquil-
    The mysterious group of cloaked figures continues to hold your ailing Pikachu within their grasp as you whimper like a puppy and cower against the cold hard wall. Suddenly, Picha begins to sneeze, her cheeks firing off tiny sparks of electricity. The figures begin to shift anxiously and slide away from the Pikachu.
    “Pika-ka-Ka-KACHOOO!” Picha releases an incredible sneeze, sending off a volley of crackling yellow lightning bolts. The cloaked figure holding him releases his grasp and back away quickly. Picha plops onto the ground with a muffled thump, her body limp and unconscious from exhaustion. Meanwhile, the figures regroup in front of you once more. They are making strange gestures with their bony hands, almost like sign language or a game of charades, continuously pointing to you and Picha. One of them pats the fallen Pikachu gently to show that they mean no harm.
    What will you do now?

    LightNinetales-
    Welcome to Expedia!
    You walk along the length of Welcome Beach with your supplies and your two PokeBalls secure in your pack. The shrill cries of Wingulls and the dull roar of the ocean waves breaking against the shore bring peace to your mind, even though you are psyched to finally get this adventure started. After a few paces, you stop walking and look around for any signs of the Unown that are supposed to transport you to your destination. But there is nothing except the white sand underneath you, the glistening waters in front, and the clear blue sky above.
    Suddenly, you find yourself surrounded by a white glow. Small black figures dance around in midair and encircle you, constantly chanting “Unown! Unown!” in high-pitched voices. So they have finally arrived. You feel a sense of lightness overwhelm you as your vision blurs and fades to white. Your eyes flutter shut on their own accord and when you open them again, you find yourself on the beaches of the enchanted Dragonair Island. Behind you is a chain of tall gray mountains that nearly divides this slender island in half. The Unowns have already disappeared without a trace, leaving you on the first stage of your Expedia adventure.
    What will you do? Take Rt. 23 along one side of the mountains, Rt. 27 along the other, visit the Store, or something else?

    Miko
    With a flash of white light, you release your Vaporeon into the water. It resurfaces and you tell it to talk to the Lanturn while you talk with the captain of the ferry. With an affirming nod, she turns around and begins to converse with the Lanturn in their own Pokemon language. You turn around yourself and talk with the captain, asking him what is wrong with these fish Pokemon.
    “These Pokemon look like they’re really sick”, replies the captain, “They’re probably poisoned or something, but I can’t tell. I’m not a Pokemon expert.” You thank the captain anyways and refocus on Dewdrop, who is still talking with the Lanturn. After a while, she gives one final nod and swims back to the side of the boat.
    “These Pokemon say they’ve been poisoned by a large, mean Tentacruel!” she says, “It’s never been in this lake before, but now it just showed up and began attacking the native water Pokemon!”
    What will you do? Try and find the Tentacruel, try and heal the Pokemon, ignore them and move on, or something else?

    Rollin –
    “Of course I’ll come with you!” replies the large male Muk, “I know the land pretty well among these parts. Right, let’s move on!” The Muk slides his oozing purple body past you and you follow behind, careful not to step in his poisonous slime trail.
    “Good luck and take care!” calls the female Muk from behind, waving her arm as you walk out of the Muk’s lair. A gust of fresh air meets your face and you breath it in, sighing in relief as if nothing has felt this good before. Your two Pokemon also react in the same fashion. For the next half hour, you trudge a few feet behind the Muk, careful not to stumble and trip over the dead logs and rocks that are scattered all over the ground. Soon, you approach some tall bushes and as the Muk pushes aside the foliage, he gasps and signals to you.
    “Look, I think I found a clue!” he whispers in a gurgling voice. Behind the bushes is a pile of blue and white feathers. “Hmmm, they must be birds or something…” But before he could finish his sentence, the fluttering of wings could be heard. Both of you look skyward and see a flock of birds descending from the air. Suddenly, they all land on the Muk and begin rubbing him with their wings, as if they were trying to scrub him clean!
    How strange…
    What will you do now?

    Parsec’s Politoed-
    You stay in the shop to help the two girls try and settle their differences. The younger of the two sisters crosses her arms and glowers at her older sibling, who simply shakes her head before speaking to you.
    “Sorry again, me and my sister Irene have been on bad terms ever since she lost her Treecko to the sea.”
    “No I didn’t! That was YOUR fault, Elaine!” the little girl retorts angrily. Elaine simply ignores her and continues talking.
    “It started out as a really fun day. We were having a picnic on the beach and we let our only Pokemon, Treecko, out to play with us. I told my sister to keep an eye on him, but then later in the day, our Treecko was missing!”
    “I bet he was swallowed up underwater,” said Irene, choking back some tears, “He was still wearing that little red ribbon I gave him.”
    “Anyways, I still have hope that we will one day find our Treecko. We keep looking everyday in the same spot…” She breaks off and both girls fall into silence for a few moments, deep in thought.
    “Can you help us find him?” says Irene meekly.
    “Oh no, we couldn’t possibly ask of you to do that,” replies Elaine, yet she too thinks about it for a while, “But if you wanted to, would you? We could show you the spot we lost him and everything.” Both girls looks hopefully at you.
    What will you say?

    Default Full Update! ^_^

    Minstonnence Dragart/Door #17: Desert/Completed Doors: #6/Noctowl, Mareep, Lagi (Dragonite), Ventura (Venomoth), Kabuto, Vulpix/91 CCP/3 food supplies/4 pokédolls/Element Emerald, King's Rock, Dragon Scale, Volcano Ruby, Day Stone, Frozen Diamond, Metal Coat, Darkness Gem, Mystic Pearl, Plushies displayed on my items site, Special Blend Tea.

    Lagi's female. -_- Anyway, she can use her Agility to gain an advantage, and then try a Dragon Claw. If she can't get close enough, she can try another Ice Beam. Then, if she can go out to the open, she can use Tempest. That's bound to confuse the Rayquaza, and be quite effective too. If you don't know how Tempest works, ask me before updating.


    Rachel- I think you missed my last update. I'm reposting it.
    You look for a string to swing across, but nothing's hanging from the ceiling. There is, however, a thick rope piled up on the floor. There's no way to know how it got there, but when you examine it, you notice it would be possible to hold on to it... if something could hold the rope in the first place. You also find some firmly locked wooden boxes and a long spade with the image of a fish carved on its handle. And, of course, the barrel you brought with you.

    -What will you do? Will you keep looking around, or do you have a plan?

    Kyle- You start walking towards the Crystal Cave, but before you can get out of the forest, you hear something shake vigorously. You look in the direction where the sound comes from, just in time to notice a large tree trunk coming your way! You jump back just in time to avoid it, and the dry trunk raises a cloud of dust as it impacts on the ground.

    -What will you do? Inspect the trunk? Walk around it and move on? Check the place where it fell from? Or do something else?


    Amy- You call for a Circle of Unowns. It looks like they were waiting for you, as they come from all directions and gather around you, even when the Island of Dreams is the only one with no port. The Unowns surround you, Alexa and all your pokemon companions, and start spinning. As they move faster, you feel your feet part from the ground. Alexa gets dizzy and holds on to you. Once you're floating above the beach, Quilava scratches Alexa's back with his front leg, and she finally dares to look down.
    "It's beautiful!," she exclaims, finally feeling safe inside the Unowns' psychic energy field.
    Below you, you can view the whole island, the cloud that holds it and, further below, the vast ocean. A clock floats past you as you say goodbye to the Island of Dreams.
    As you reach the sea, your Destiny Jewel begins to glow, and a beam of bright light comes out of it. The Unowns follow the light, taking you further into the ocean, away from the islands you've been to before. You can't see anything in front of you except for the water and the clouds on the horizon, but as you advance, you notice that some of the steam is too low to be a cloud. It's actually a wall of mist! That's exactly where the beam points to, and that's where you're going.
    You finally reach the mist and float through it. You can see nothing but whiteness, but you trust that the Unowns will know the way. It turns out they do, as the mist finally clears out, revealing a wide shore.
    When you reach a small building, which turns out to be the sea port, your feet touch the ground again. The Unowns release their hold on you, and start making pirouhettes in the air. They start to reorder themselves, as if trying to form a phrase, but they can't seem to agree on what to say to you, and none of them seems to want to leave before the others do, so they just float in the middle of the air waving whatever they can at you. Then, they all part at the same time.
    Once the figures of the Unowns fade into the sky, you look around. You can see the port behind you, and in front of you, a trail that leads to a wide road. It also divides the shore in two areas. To the right of the trail, the ground is covered with soft and golden sand. To the left, it's full of small rounded stones of many colors.

    -Where will you go? There's a map of Pixie Island here.


    Liang- Not wanting to face whatever's inside the dark tunnel, you set yourself for the well-lit path. As you walk along the path, the sunlight becomes stronger and the air less humid. There's hardly any moss around anymore. You keep advancing until you see a wide opening. The rays of the sun come through it, and beyond it, you can see tall grass and trees.

    -What will you do? Walk through the opening? Go back? Or do something else?

    Default I'm doing a 1-person Update! o.o

    Only person who's posted- You walk along the trail towards Route 5 without interruptions. As soon as you get there, you hear noises coming from the tall grass on the other side of the road. A closer look reveals a pokemon battle is taking place... Or more like a brawl, maybe. A Poochyena's fighting a teal-feathered Natu. The Natu manages to pull away from the Poochyena's grasp, and flies back towards a nearby tree, but the Poochyena leaps onto the psychic bird, showing his teeth.

    -What will you do? I'm leaving the options open.

    I'll send out Ranec and Ralts and see if they could use their psychic powers (ranec knows psychic and ralts is psychic type) to see if they can figure out the cause of this mayhem.

    Nala98- You send Ranec and Ralts to see if they can figure out the cause of the mayhem. They try to use their psychic powers, but the Poochyena's immune to them and the Natu's own psychic powers are strong enough to block them out. The Poochyena manages to get hold of the Natu, but then all of a sudden a branch falls of the tree and hits him on his back. The Poochyena squeals as he steps back.
    "That wasn't fair!," he claimed.
    "Oh, because using Bite against me was perfectly fair, wasn't it?," the Natu replies. By her voice, you notice she's female.
    "It's not my fault you're a Psychic type."
    "It's not mine either. If you want to exploit my disadvantages, bear with my advantages too. Now go, I have things to do. Come back for another practice when you're ready."
    The Poochyena growls, but leaves the Natu alone. Then, the small bird turns to you and your pokemon.
    "Nice to meet you!," she says. "And nice move you pulled out, I must admit I hadn't predicted it. It didn't work, but it was still a nice try, and not jumping to conclusions is always good. Now I see why you're here. Next time you want to know something from me, you can ask. Oh, one thing, I didn't get your name. What is it?"

    -How will you respond?

    "That wasn't fair!," he claimed.
    "Oh, because using Bite against me was perfectly fair, wasn't it?," the Natu replies. By her voice, you notice she's female.
    "It's not my fault you're a Psychic type."
    "It's not mine either. If you want to exploit my disadvantages, bear with my advantages too. Now go, I have things to do. Come back for another practice when you're ready."
    The Poochyena growls, but leaves the Natu alone. Then, the small bird turns to you and your pokemon.
    "Nice to meet you!," she says. "And nice move you pulled out, I must admit I hadn't predicted it. It didn't work, but it was still a nice try, and not jumping to conclusions is always good. Now I see why you're here. Next time you want to know something from me, you can ask. Oh, one thing, I didn't get your name. What is it?"

    -How will you respond?

    You introduce yourself to the Natu, and then ask her name and about what you've just seen.
    "My name is Uinya. Nice to meet you," she says in a calm tone. "The Poochyena you saw was just a friend who likes seeking trouble, and usually finds it. Right now I'm more concerned about what's going to happen next. Unless I'm wrong, the girl who's with you is one of the three children of the present, and you've already met the other two. 5 out of the 9 have already been caught and the other 4 are in danger. Everything is. Reality as we know it is at stake... The children alone can't make a difference, but a wolf can turn the balance."
    She notices your confusion, and tries to speak more clearly.
    "Meet me where the moonlight hides in two nights time," she says. "You'll find an answer inside the cave. Another warrior is on his way, and so is another child. Take care of the girl, don't let go of her no matter what. We'll have to find out where the children are being taken, but you'll need to find your power first. Don't worry, there's still some time; two of the children aren't here yet."

    -Whether she managed to make herself clear or not remains to be seen, but what will you do now?

You follow him, still thinking of his reaction, and once you reach the cave you check it out to make sure it's safe. It's not too big, but there's enough room for your little group, and no one else seems to be around, so you decide it's a good spot to spend the night.
    It turns out that stopping was a good idea, for a heavy rain begins to fall a few minutes after you've entered the cave. In the middle of the storm, a Zangoose climbs its way into the same cave where you are. The pokemon looks at you, and frowns, stretching her claws. Apparently she's decided this cave isn't big enough for all of you.

    -What will you do? Battle the Zangoose? Try to calm her down (how)? Try to escape? Or do something else?

    Welcome to Expedia!
    You walk along the length of Welcome Beach with your supplies and your two PokeBalls secure in your pack. The shrill cries of Wingulls and the dull roar of the ocean waves breaking against the shore bring peace to your mind, even though you are psyched to finally get this adventure started. After a few paces, you stop walking and look around for any signs of the Unown that are supposed to transport you to your destination. But there is nothing except the white sand underneath you, the glistening waters in front, and the clear blue sky above.
    Suddenly, you find yourself surrounded by a white glow. Small black figures dance around in midair and encircle you, constantly chanting “Unown! Unown!” in high-pitched voices. So they have finally arrived. You feel a sense of lightness overwhelm you as your vision blurs and fades to white. Your eyes flutter shut on their own accord and when you open them again, you find yourself on the beaches of the enchanted Dragonair Island. Behind you is a chain of tall gray mountains that nearly divides this slender island in half. The Unowns have already disappeared without a trace, leaving you on the first stage of your Expedia adventure.
    What will you do? Take Rt. 23 along one side of the mountains, Rt. 27 along the other, visit the Store, or something else?

    ~Dragonair Island~

    Pokemon:Golden:male captured naturally shiny Cacturne[lv.17] and Kaizerin:female captured Walrein[lv.20]

    ------------
    I'll take Rt. 23 along one side of the mountains.^_^

    EDIT:Golden is at level 17.

    Sorry about my absence, I was away on vacation, but now I'm back!

    Anyways, I hope to get done with Gabi, LightNinetales, and Cheesey in my next update, and maybe all the rest as well!

    You assure the nervous Nidoran(F) that you are willing to help it. She smiles at your generosity, but is still feeling uncomfortable, as she has rarely been around humans.
    You begin to climb up the tree, swinging one of your legs until it reaches one of its lowest branches, and then hoist yourself up. Once you have gained a secure footing, you look around for those tasty leaves that the Pokemon has sought for. However, this branch is almost devoid of any leaves growing on it, and the nearest ones are barely out of arm’s reach. You take a deep breath and extend your arm as far as you could go. Fortunately for you, you manage to grasp a very leafy branch, but unfortunately for you, one of those leaves belongs to a Nuzleaf! It glares angrily at you, and before you could react, it swings a fist and punches you directly in the nose! Stars erupt before your eyes as you stagger off the tree and fall onto the ground below. The Nidoran gasps as you hit the earth with a muffled thud and retreats back to the safety of a nearby bush. Meanwhile, the Nuzleaf growls at you from atop the tree and leaps off it, running away to a hopefully more private tree.
    Rubbing your red nose, you are still feeling a bit dazed, but eventually get up after that ordeal. The Nidoran peeks timidly from the bush and suddenly her face brightens up. One of the taller branches has broken off the tree and is now lying on the ground and bearing a large clump of fresh leaves. She quickly runs over and devours some instantly, and in a few moments, she has gobbled up all of the leaves. After a small burp, she begins to speak.
    “Oh thank you so much for that delicious meal!” she says, with her former fear completely vanished, “Hold on a minute while I give you a prize for your troubles!” The Pokemon darts off deeper into the forest, but in no time, she runs quickly back with something in her mouth.
    “Some human must have dropped this on the road, and it looks a lot like me. But I have no use for it and I’ll give it to you instead!” She plops a Nidoran Plushie in your hands, your prize for helping the Pokemon. “All right, good bye and thanks again!” she says and runs back into the depths of the forest.
    What will you do now?

    We have another split update now. I'll also ask you something: this time, when you all post, could you please say what year you were born in? This has something to do with a big secret of this game... A secret so well hidden even we don't know what it is! But we're trying to figure it out, and you'll know it later.


    Knight of all Darkness- You explore the tree trunk and notice it's dry and, in many parts, hollow. The tree must have died a while ago, and anything could have made it fall. You keep examining the trunk without reaching any interesting conclusions, until Andrew tells you he's hungry again, and asks you how much longer you'll all keep standing there. You suddenly notice it's already noon!

    -What will you do?


    Lune- (Or, rather, his author). I'll post the stats first.

    Zangoose (female):
    Level 15
    HP 56
    Attack 48
    Defense 32
    Speed 41
    Special Attack 32
    Special Defense 32

    Switchblade:
    Level 13
    HP 50
    Attack 43
    Defense 28
    Speed 36
    Special Attack 28
    Special Defense 28
    Holding a Status Die

    The Zangoose seems to be really furious! She jumps onto Switchy with a Quick Attack and strikes a Critical Hit! Switchy takes 31 damage, but manages to strike back with an Icy Wind. While his attack only does 6 damage, it manages to slow down his opponent and he's now ready to attack again.

    Zangoose (female):
    Level 15

    -What will you and Switchy do now?


    Pikachu Master- If you want to get an update, please post one first (or along with your post). It's not nice for a worker to post only for himself when other players are waiting.

    -Will you talk to us and then update? Or just update next time someone posts?


    I'm a bird...it's true!- Happy to see the sunlight again, you rush towards the opening and get out. You've made it out of the tunnels! Around you, you can see the clear skies (with some remaints of powders floating around), tall grass and lots of trees. You have the feeling you've seen those trees before... Several times, actually. Then, you realize: you're in the Looping Forest!

    -What will you do now?


    Whaaa?- You thanks the Nidoran for her gift, and continue exploring the forest. You see many exotic plants which you'd never seen in your present world, and before you realize, a lake lies in front of you. It looks like your long journey to the past has come to an end!

    -Do you still remember what you're supposed to do now?

    O_O! Switchy will take a chance with his Status Die (if that doesn't require an extra turn). Also, he will use Hidden Power Fighting.

    All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.

    Okay, my part of the updates. Sorry for the delay!

    Gabi – (Sorry about the gender mixup ^_^; As the thick cloud of steam begins to settle, Lagi does not waste any time and immediately uses her Agility, turning into an orange speeding bullet and darting all over the air. But what’s this? Another blur in the air, this one in a greenish hue. Oh no, the Rayquaza is using Extreme Speed again! Now the sky is filled with darting shapes, streaking erratically through the air. Lagi decides this battle is going nowhere and opens her mouth. A blue glowing orb forms and immediately transforms into an Ice Beam, slicing through the air like a bright blue lightning bolt. Suddenly, there is a brilliant flash of light and a showering of ice crystals. It seems that through some stroke of luck, the Ice Beam has managed to hit the Rayquaza!
    “Rahr! Now I’m mad!” he roars angrily, and charges up and fires his own Ice Beam. The Rayquaza’s icy attack is much larger and more powerful than Lagi’s, illuminating the sky in a bluish glow, but fortunately for the Dragonite, he just does not have the same luck on his side as Lagi easily vanishes from sight and reappears in another location, still using her agility to her advantage. Now Lagi smiles a little as she realizes she may actually be winning this epic dragon battle.
    Next attacks please!

    Sorry, Gabi, I forgot to ask you what Tempest does, but once I know, I’ll put it in my next update!

    Light Ninetales – You look towards the direction of Rt. 23 and decide that is where you want to head off. Leaving the sandy shores and glistening ocean waves behind, you walk towards the majestic mountains, their peaks hidden among a dense layer of clouds. An old wooden sign with the words “Route 23” written in faded yellow letters points you in the right direction. After half an hour of walking with nothing interesting happening, you begin to feel just a bit bored. But your boredom is soon relieved and replaced with horror as something jumps on your back and begins slapping you! AAH!!!
    You hearing the monkeylike chattering of “Squirt! Squirt! Squirtle!” and realize that you are being attacked by a troop of angry Squirtles! But what could be making these normally friendly Pokemon act like this? You have no time to think as Squirtles gang up and fire a simultaneous Water Gun at you and knock you backwards, drenching you in cold water.
    What will you do now?

    Cheesey – Welcome to Expedia, Cheesey!
    With your two Pokemon safely tucked away in their Pokeballs, you step onto the creamy white sand of Welcome Beach and make your way to the area where you are supposed to meet a swimming Snorlax. Though this behemoth Pokemon is supposed to be hard to miss, you can see nothing besides more many miles of sand and sky and surf. Suddenly, a loud yawn meets your ears and you turn around, facing the giant body of the Snorlax! He points his blubbery arm out to sea and you nod, saying you want to go to Art Island. The Snorlax gestures for you to follow him and heads off into the direction of the ocean, making giant craters in the sand with his feet. Then he turns around and falls backwards onto the water with an enormous splash, and pats his stomach. You cautiously climb onto him and find that he is amazingly soft, like a velvet pillow. Then the Snorlax pushes off the shore and you travel to Art Island!
    You arrive in less than an hour. The Snorlax is amazingly quick even though all he does is paddle leisurely in the water. You thank him for the service and turn around to examine your new surroundings. Forests cover much of the island and the thick line of trees begins where the shore ends.
    Where do you want to go? Go through the forest along Rt. 32, cross the Aricu River onto Rt. 31, visit the store, or do something else?

    Amy – You thank the Natu for the rather intriguing and mysterious information. The Natu nods and begins to glow white, then teleports away. Now with a destination you must head towards, you grasp one of your PokeBalls and call out your Arcanine. With a bright flash, the fiery canine materializes in front of you and barks a friendly greeting. Alexa’s eyes grow wide in wonder as she observes Blazer’s sleek black fur. You tell the Arcanine where you must go and for it to keep a lookout for anything strange. Blazer barks in affirmation and trots a few paces in front of you, looking like the perfect bodyguard.
    You walk along for a while on Route 5, but after a while, you sense that something else is following you. You and Blazer turn around to see the same little Poochyena trailing behind you! Blazer growls and bears his teeth, and the Poochyena yelps in fear and flees. Your Arcanine seems pleased with himself, but you’re not too sure that’s the last you’ll see of the little wolf.
    After a few more hours’ journey, the sun has already reached its peak, signaling noontime. Suddenly, Alexa tugs on your shirt.
    “Sorry, I don’t want to stop and waste time, but I’m feeling tired and a bit hungry. We don’t have to stop though. I can still go on.”
    What will you do? Continue on, have a break and a snack, or something else?

    And me:

    I'm a bird...it's true!- Happy to see the sunlight again, you rush towards the opening and get out. You've made it out of the tunnels! Around you, you can see the clear skies (with some remaints of powders floating around), tall grass and lots of trees. You have the feeling you've seen those trees before... Several times, actually. Then, you realize: you're in the Looping Forest!

    -What will you do now?
    Location: A cave in a forest, Art Island
    Food: 5
    Pokedolls: 5
    CCPs and Stamps: 79 CCPs/83 Stamps
    Pokemon: Aeragorn (LV11 Skarmory, M) Dargonis (LV7 Aerodactyl, M) Slakoth (LV9, F)
    Items: 1 Faerie Pellet

    Wha! I don't wanna be here again! First, I'll send out Aeragorn and tell him to scout the area to see if this is the same place or just another trick of the forest. If it is, I'll continue on, but if it's the same, I'll head back into the cave and up the dark tunnel I passed, with Aeragorn by my side.

    Thanks for posting the years, everyone! You can stop posting them now, we've already found what we were looking for! And thanks, Julina, for your help!

    MY POST:

    Minstonnence Dragart/Door #17: Desert/Completed Doors: #6/Noctowl, Mareep, Lagi (Dragonite), Ventura (Venomoth), Kabuto, Vulpix/91 CCP/3 food supplies/4 pokédolls/Element Emerald, King's Rock, Dragon Scale, Volcano Ruby, Day Stone, Frozen Diamond, Metal Coat, Darkness Gem, Mystic Pearl, Plushies displayed on my items site, Special Blend Tea.

    Ok, Tempest as soon as she's out in the open. If it takes her some time/effort to get out (or if Rayquaza happens to stop the preparation), she can keep using Ice Beam to keep the Rayquaza at bay, or Dragon Claw if it gets too close. Here's how Tempest works. I'll provide a visual and a technical description.

    Visual description:
    1. Lagi soars into the sky and calls for the forces of nature. Clouds cover the sky as in Rain Dance.
    2. She gets down and creates strong winds with her wings, while heavy rain starts falling on her opponent.
    3. Rain gives way to hail, and finally lightning strikes.

    Technical description:
    Tempest takes 3 turns, and is like 4 moves of different types.
    1. In the first turn (preparation stage), Lagi's out of reach, as if using Fly. There is a way to stop Tempest at this stage, but I doubt Rayquaza knows it (and if it is stopped, Lagi can attack freely on the following turns as if nothing had happened). Once this turn is over, it can't be stopped.
    2. A Flying type attack and a Water type attack, with 60 Base Power each and 100% accuracy.
    3. An Ice type attack and an Electric type attack, with 60 Base Power each. The ice has 100% accuracy. The lightning bolt has only 70%, but if it strikes, it has 50% chance of paralyzing the opponent.

    After this, the storm stops and the sky goes back to normal. Tempest does not have any side effects on the attacks used during the storm, but it does cancel Sunny Day if it was in effect, and that move would have no effect during the 2nd and 3rd turns.



    UPDATE:


    Phantom of Innocence-BF- You throw the marble in the lake, and everything around you starts to spin. You can see a column of water emerge from the lake, and before you know it, it's falling on you, engulfing you and taking you and your pokemon friends into the depths of the lake. You're caught in a whirlpool! You hold your breath until, barely 10 seconds later, something pushes you from below and you're all thrown back to the shore. What an experience!
    Still a bit shaken, you look around and notice the vegetation now looks more familiar. You take a look at your companions and feel calmer once you realize they're all still with you, and none is hurt. Gligar looks a bit dizzier and more exhausted than the others, while Squirtle is already up and ready to go and the rest are just waiting for the world to stop spinning. You wait until everyone is fine before deciding where to go next. Then, as you were about to leave, you hear something moving among a nearby group of bushes.

    -What will you do? Inspect the bushes? Stay where you are and see what happens? Or go somewhere else?


    Charizard04621- Before things can get worse, you roll Switchblade's Status Die and it lands on... a red rune! The drawing looks like 5 curved lines that come together in the center, like a star. The Zangoose squeals while the symbol begins to glow with a red light. And when the die is back to normal, your attacker looks weakened.
    The Zangoose uses another Quick Attack, but this time her lower speed and her weakened state allow Switchy to evade most of the attack, taking only 8 damage while the Zangoose takes almost as much in the process. Her burns have just caused her 7 HP.
    Not wasting a second, Switchblade uses his Hidden Power, dealing 28 damage to his opponent! Things are starting to look brighter for your side!

    Zangoose:
    Level 15
    HP 15
    Attack 24
    Defense 32
    Speed 27
    Special Attack 32
    Special Defense 32

    Switchblade:
    Level 13
    HP 11
    Attack 43
    Defense 28
    Speed 36
    Special Attack 28
    Special Defense 28

    -Lucky Karin, getting the one rune that makes Zangoose's advantage disappear. What will you do next?


    Person who doesn't like his PDN- You tell Andrew that you'll all go immediately, and that you won't eat anything for some time. Andrew complains, but as you get moving, he follows you. Though you can see he's frowning and doesn't say a word to you. Soon, you hear the sound of the water ahead. You keep walking until you get to the edge of the forest. A river lies in front of you, and a conveniently placed bridge invites you to cross to the other side. However, before you can do it, Andrew speaks again.
    "I'm not walking one more step until we get something to eat," he tells you.

    -What will you do now?


    aragornbird- Refusing to believe you're back where you started, you ask Aeragorn to inspect the place, hoping it is just a trick. But it turns out it isn't: this is the same forest you've been trying to get out of all this time. Frustrated, you decide to head back into the cave and walk through the dark tunnel you previously passed. It doesn't take a long time to get back where you were (that seems to be the easiest thing to do in this forest).
    As you begin your descent into the dark and humid tunnel, there comes a point when you can't see what's in front of you anymore. You keep advancing, using the slimy walls as your guides, you walk until you can finally see something again. Small yellow lights seem to shine for a split second and then fade away. A more careful observation reveals that something is floating in the air, becoming visible or fading into the dark according to its position.

    -What will you do?


    LightNinetales- You tell Kaizerin to use her Iron Tail on the Squirtles. She manages to hit one, but the others take revenge, launching themselves against the Walrein and hitting her with Headbutts. Then the other, getting up, throws a clod Water Gun right into your face.

    -What will you do now?


    Nala98- You tell Alexa you understand her, and offer her to ride on Starflare while Togetic keeps an eye out for food. Alexa agrees, so you help her get on Starflare's back and send out everyone else. You keep advancing, with Togetic flying ahead of you, until Togetic gets back to you. Your other pokemon gather around her to hear what she's found out, and so you learn she's seen a forest ahead. There's bound to be food in there and you don't even have to get away from the road! You follow her, and soon found yourself in quite an unusual place.
    The forest is full of conifers which, on its own, wouldn't be too strange, but there are also some thorny bushes scattered around the place, and they all have pointy tops. Even their fruits are either conical or pyramidal. As you look around you, you find a cuple of white flowers with pointy petals... And even a few spike-shaped rocks on the ground! A Wurmple passes by and looks at you, curious. Metapod half-closes her eyes in what looks like a smile, and the Wurmple dares to get closer.

    -What will you do? Talk to the Wurmple? Pick some pointy berries? Keep walking? Or do something else?

    Charizard04621- The Zangoose looks really furious, but Switch uses his Hidden Power again, and that's enough to bring her down. Congratulations! Switchblade has won and grown to level 14!
    The rain seems to be ceasing now... It's not so heavy anymore. You look around after the battle, and Evenstar looks back at you. She's the only one sitting by the back wall of the cave. Ryan is gone!

    That's not good... Switchblade, see if your Psychic ability can find any traces of Ryan... Evenstar, use Foresight to overcome any illusory possibilities. Look down into the dark cave and see if you can see any sign of Ryan... Your Keen Eye should help you. It's not a very big cave, so it won't be very deep. I don't want to call out, because we might attract the attention of something else undesirable. If we don't find anything in the cave, I guess we could head outside... But we need to search the place thoroughly first. See if there were any trap doors, or anything...

    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.

    With your two Pokemon safely tucked away in their Pokeballs, you step onto the creamy white sand of Welcome Beach and make your way to the area where you are supposed to meet a swimming Snorlax. Though this behemoth Pokemon is supposed to be hard to miss, you can see nothing besides more many miles of sand and sky and surf. Suddenly, a loud yawn meets your ears and you turn around, facing the giant body of the Snorlax! He points his blubbery arm out to sea and you nod, saying you want to go to Art Island. The Snorlax gestures for you to follow him and heads off into the direction of the ocean, making giant craters in the sand with his feet. Then he turns around and falls backwards onto the water with an enormous splash, and pats his stomach. You cautiously climb onto him and find that he is amazingly soft, like a velvet pillow. Then the Snorlax pushes off the shore and you travel to Art Island!
    You arrive in less than an hour. The Snorlax is amazingly quick even though all he does is paddle leisurely in the water. You thank him for the service and turn around to examine your new surroundings. Forests cover much of the island and the thick line of trees begins where the shore ends.
    Where do you want to go? Go through the forest along Rt. 32, cross the Aricu River onto Rt. 31, visit the store, or do something else?
    Island: Art Island

    I think I'll cross the Aricu River and onto Route 31, to see what awaits me there. ^^

Your other pokemon gather around her to hear what she's found out, and so you learn she's seen a forest ahead. There's bound to be food in there and you don't even have to get away from the road! You follow her, and soon found yourself in quite an unusual place.
    The forest is full of conifers which, on its own, wouldn't be too strange, but there are also some thorny bushes scattered around the place, and they all have pointy tops. Even their fruits are either conical or pyramidal. As you look around you, you find a cuple of white flowers with pointy petals... And even a few spike-shaped rocks on the ground! A Wurmple passes by and looks at you, curious. Metapod half-closes her eyes in what looks like a smile, and the Wurmple dares to get closer.

    -What will you do? Talk to the Wurmple? Pick some pointy berries? Keep walking? Or do something else?

    I'll first ask Togetic if she'd like to be called Serenity. If so then i'll give her that name. Then I'll ask if she and ralts will pick some berries. Then i'll talk to the wrumple. I'll ask it if it knows metapod.

    “Pika-ka-Ka-KACHOOO!” Picha releases an incredible sneeze, sending off a volley of crackling yellow lightning bolts. The cloaked figure holding him releases his grasp and back away quickly. Picha plops onto the ground with a muffled thump, her body limp and unconscious from exhaustion. Meanwhile, the figures regroup in front of you once more. They are making strange gestures with their bony hands, almost like sign language or a game of charades, continuously pointing to you and Picha. One of them pats the fallen Pikachu gently to show that they mean no harm.

You're caught in a whirlpool! You hold your breath until, barely 10 seconds later, something pushes you from below and you're all thrown back to the shore. What an experience!
    Still a bit shaken, you look around and notice the vegetation now looks more familiar. You take a look at your companions and feel calmer once you realize they're all still with you, and none is hurt. Gligar looks a bit dizzier and more exhausted than the others, while Squirtle is already up and ready to go and the rest are just waiting for the world to stop spinning. You wait until everyone is fine before deciding where to go next. Then, as you were about to leave, you hear something moving among a nearby group of bushes.

    -What will you do? Inspect the bushes? Stay where you are and see what happens? Or go somewhere else?
    No problem, Gabi. =D

But it turns out it isn't: this is the same forest you've been trying to get out of all this time. Frustrated, you decide to head back into the cave and walk through the dark tunnel you previously passed. It doesn't take a long time to get back where you were (that seems to be the easiest thing to do in this forest).
    As you begin your descent into the dark and humid tunnel, there comes a point when you can't see what's in front of you anymore. You keep advancing, using the slimy walls as your guides, you walk until you can finally see something again. Small yellow lights seem to shine for a split second and then fade away. A more careful observation reveals that something is floating in the air, becoming visible or fading into the dark according to its position.

    -What will you do?
    Location: A cave in a forest, Art Island
    Food: 5
    Pokedolls: 5
    CCPs and Stamps: 79 CCPs/91 Stamps
    Pokemon: Aeragorn (LV11 Skarmory, M) Dargonis (LV7 Aerodactyl, M) Slakoth (LV9, F)
    Items: 1 Faerie Pellet

    With Aeragorn at my side, I'll walk towards the lights, but if it attacks us or does something bad, I'll tell Aeragorn to use Protect.

    ~*~*~*~

    And I'll do a couple of updates. Sorry I can't do more, but I have to go soon.

    Gabi – Lagi nods in affirmation after hearing her commands. With a burst of energy, she rockets in the air with amazing speed towards the sun. Rayquaza tries to follow her, but is nearly blinded by the bright sunlight and only growls in frustration. He desperately fires a quick Ice Beam, hoping it will hit her by chance. And though Lagi feels the cold rush of air coming from the icy attack, it misses her completely as she begins to summon the forces of nature. Suddenly, a thick layer of dark clouds shrouds the sunlight. Glad that the first stage of her attack is completed, she quickly swoops around and flaps her wings furiously. The clouds burst and a deluge of cold rain begins to fall on the Rayquaza while the Dragonite’s wings whip up tremendous gales. Her opponent flinches as the first blast of rain and wind hits him, but he regains his stance and fires yet another Ice Beam. This time, it manages to strike Lagi in her left wing, and with a yelp of pain, she begins to plummet downwards. But she flexes the muscles in her wings and breaks out of her fall, glad that her wing was not frozen. Now comes the final and strongest stage. The falling rain dwindles, but is instantly replaced by a flurry of giant hailstones the size of baseballs. These chunks of ice really start to damage the green dragon as he gives an angry roar. The sky suddenly lights up as a bolt of lightning streaks directly at the Rayquaza. But he is fast and has already released his own Thunderbolt to counter it. The two electric attacks collide in midair and create an immense crackling explosion. Both dragons are caught in the blast and are knocked backwards, away from each other. When that is over, Lagi can be seen panting in exhaustion while the Rayquaza, who has more energy, seems to be paralyzed.
    Next attacks please!

    Cheesey – Finally making your decision as to where you want to go, you trot off in the direction of the Aricu River. The line of white sand soon ends as you traverse into the denser forested areas of Art Island. The forest is still brightly lit as the sunlight filters through the gaps in the branches and leaves, and the only sounds you hear are the high-pitched calls of bird Pokemon and a faint rushing sound, as of moving water. Knowing that you are close to the River, you pick up your pace and jog towards the noise. Soon you arrive at the River, a wide and winding stream of water that glistens in the sunlight. There is a wooden bridge conveniently built for crossing, but as you begin to cross it, you hear a noise, like someone laughing cheerfully from the other side. You run across the bridge to take a look, and you see an Oddish in the distance, laughing its leafy head off.
    What will you do now?

    Amy – You ask your Togetic if she likes her new nickname and she nods happily, now with the delightful name of Serenity. She also nods to your second request of berry picking and you send out your Ralts. The two Pokemon go off towards the nearest berry bush, and with quick reflexes and deft fingers to avoid being poked by the thorns, amass a sufficient amount of pointy berries. Meanwhile, you attempt at a conversation with the Wurmple, who shrinks back shyly. But she still manages to answer your question.
    “Yes, I do know the Metapod,” she answers, “She and I and everything else around here are spiky and pointy, and you look pretty unusual with your ‘unspikiness’. But it seems like you’re hungry and I can help you with the berry picking.”
    She disappears into the nearest bush and soon emerges with a pair of blue berries.
    “Those red ones your Pokemon picked are spicy! But these blue ones are really sweet.” You thank the kind Wurmple for her help and begin to snack on your pickings. Alexa gobbles up quite a few of the blue berries while Blazer and Starflare naturally crunch on the fiery red berries. Suddenly, you hear rustling coming from behind you as well as a yelp of pain. Turning around, you see that the same Poochyena has followed you and has tangled himself in a thorny branch. Alexa and the Pokemon begin to giggle at the comical wolf as he manages to extract himself and immediately bounces towards the pile of berries. He pops a red berry into his mouth, but then coughs at the extreme spiciness while all of you burst out laughing. Finally, Blazer growls at the wolf again and scares him away once more.
    The day draws on as you finish your berry meal.
    What will you do now?

    After making sure that everyone is ok, I'll tell the wurmple that we must go, but if she wants to she's welcome to come with us. Either way, I'll thank her for her help. Next i'll ask Starflare if she is willing to give me and Alexa another ride if so, then we'll climb up. Then we will continue on on since we have a destination that we need to reach.

    Akaiou went 'poof' along with all my adoptees, so I just have Prisma and my Expedia companions. Is it alright if I add another captee? Sorry if it's confusing, and if I can't, it's fine. =)

    So anyway, back to business. How do I find this Milotic?

    Lesbian seagul???- "My name is Bjarni Haraldur Siguffon, and this is my trustably floatable dinghy, Rusian666. Who might you be?," you say to the Huntail.
    "My name is Seyeneekliatgnolhteetprahs, but my friends call me Murray," the Huntail tells you. "So, Siguffon, eh? Are you related to Bjarni Haraldur Sigfússon in any way? I've heard some crazy stories about that guy."

    Default UPDATE

    Pikachu101 said he would update for AB, Rollin, LightNinetales and Tom, so he'd better do it. I'll update for Karin, Julina and Jay, and AB will update for the rest.

    MY POST:

    Minstonnence Dragart/Door #17: Desert/Completed Doors: #6/Noctowl, Mareep, Lagi (Dragonite), Ventura (Venomoth), Kabuto, Vulpix/162 CCP/3 food supplies/4 pokédolls/Element Emerald, King's Rock, Dragon Scale, Volcano Ruby, Day Stone, Frozen Diamond, Metal Coat, Darkness Gem, Mystic Pearl, Plushies displayed on my items site, Special Blend Tea.

    Now that Rayquaza's paralyzed, a Thunder could help. Then Dragon Claw if Rayquaza gets close, or Ice Beal if he's still far away.


    UPDATES:

    Karin- You quickly organize your pokemon and each of you starts searching for Ryan all over the place. Evenstar uses Foresight, but nothing new shows up. Switchblade's psychic abilities don't seem to be helping much either. You all keep searching nervously, but being careful not to make too much noise so that you don't bring any more threats towards you. Suddenly, Evenstar notices something and calls your attention. You follow her to notice a hole on the ground, partially covered by rocks and grass. You look down the hole, but it's too deep and dark to see. You realize the hole is wide enough for Ryan to fit through it.

    -What will you do? Go down the hole? Find some way to shed some light on it? Go outside? Or do something else?


    Julina- You check the bushes and ;o (whatever that is). As you get closer, an Umbreon pops out and looks at you. Before you can do or say anything, the dark pokemon speaks with a female voice.
    "Go to the crossroads and straight from there to Maiden's Peak. Hurry, there's no time to waste!"
    With that... she disappears into the shadows.

    -So... that was a bit fast! Will you follow her directions or do something else?


    Jay- It took me almost an hour to dig into your old updates!
    "What a weird name", you say. "I might be related to Bjarni... I mightn't be related to Bjarni... Who knows? So anyway, back to business. How do I find this Milotic?"
    "Back into business?," Seyeneekliatgnolhteetprahs replies with a curious look on his face. "We've only just met. You're quite an unusual individual. But if you're looking for Milotic, you should search where the water's the clearest. She somehow repels all the dirt and poisonous fluids, so try to find the most transparent spot in the lake, and there you'll find her. Also, I suggest you search in the caves near the bottom of the lake. She likes to rest there, and I haven't seen her around for a while, so she's probably sleeping."

    -What will you do now?

    I'll ask Switchblade to send a single weak Thunderbolt down the hole. That should provide an instant of light. If we don't see something extremely alarming (like spikes) down the hole, we'll go in. Otherwise we'll come up with a new plan.

    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
