BLADEMASTER'S ADVENTURE

Poke Balls
oooooooooo

Locale
Ffefni Mountain
This large mountain is very cold and has biting winds nipping around. There is a layer of snow falling and many ice types can be found here. Also look for hardier bird Pokemon and a variety of tough foes.



Round 1
You emerge from the Safari Zone entrance sporting a nice-sized parka -- the pockets are filled with the ten Ultra Balls you purchased just moments ago. With a smug look on your face, you venture outward and note the vast mountain that waits for you. Upon further inspection, you note an old cable car that can take you up the mountain, as well as a trail you can take to climb it yourself.

What's your next move, Blade?

[Blademaster]

Ahhhh... The frigid cold of a mountain in the winter. I feel right at home...

Alrighty, boys and whatever Starmies are, look alive! We're on a hunt. An adventure, sort of. Let's make the most of it, shall we?

We're gonna split up to cover more ground more quickly. Thunderhand, you and Grand Star take that cable car and keep an eye/gem out for anything interesting. Items, rare Pokeymanz, secret caves that may lead to Zamhareer, whatever. Grand Star, report back Psychically if you guys find anything.

Rawk, that leaves you and me to take the path. We're hoofing it, so save your energy unless the snow gets too deep to walk in and you have to use your flames to plow the road.

Everybody clear?

"BLAAAAZE!!"

"LECTIIIIV!"

"CLHOoo~"

Then let's move out!

Round 2
You say your goodbyes to Grand Star and Thunderhand as they enter the cablecar. Using his electrokinesis, Thunderhand powers up the car as it slowly climbs up the mountain side. They watch as flock of pidgeotto sail peacefully through air.

Meanwhile, you and your lead pokemon, Rawk Hawk, start your trek along the moutain path. Rawk is feeling a bit uncomfortable, but remains collected. You're about a mile up the mountain so far, and you encounter a young swinub looking lonely and lost.

What's your next move, Blade?

Locale
Skyline Terrace
A strange town, all within the treetops. Long since abandoned by humans, the MASSIVE amount of Pokemon that live here all seem a bit strange and off kilter. The completly aerial town is connected by boardworks, and the homes all resemble traditional Japanese style. One would think the townspeople were turned into Pokemon here!


Round 1
You step out of the Safari Zone entrance and into an unusual, yet beautiful village. There are several archaic buildings and a great deal of foliage. At your side is Lady Nocturne, a peculiar umbreon with white fur. Her eyes light up at the surroundings. The city looks vacant, dead even, as you spot no signs of human life whatsoever.

In the distance, you spot a portly happiny running around in circles while a pile of exeggcute watch in glee.

What's your next move, Weasel?

Round 2
You make a casual joke and Nocturne just stares at you blankly, as if you had tripped over your own two feet just then. Moving on, you walk away from the playful pokemon and towards the wall of bushes. You poke through them, and faintly see a spinarak sleeping soundly.

Nocturne barks to gain your attention; she shows you a trail of red paint stretching from your feet all the way to one of the houses in this village.

What's your next move, Weasel?

[Weasel Overlord]

"Eh just a Spinarak. Let's leave it be. That red stuff looks a lot more interesting. Does it smell like paint? Looks a bit dodgy... let's follow it! Checking out that house can't lead to any trouble, right?"

Lady tilts her head and flicks her ear as if to say don't blame me if something happens. Her face is no little amount of disgusted as she takes another smell of the red stuff. She raises her head quizzically and takes a few steps forward.

"Impatient. Don't smell it again if it stinks that bad, silly."

She makes a little grunting noise and sets off towards the house, following the red-trail as if it were breadcrumbs. Now that's a disturbing idea...

Round 3
Nocturne takes a whiff of the odd red paint and starts to feel whoozy before collapsing. Annoyed, you slink the white-furred fox into your arms and start following the trail.

It leads you to a rather large, intimidating house a good mile away from the rest of the village. The door is locked, but maybe there's another way inside?

What's your next move, Weasel?

[Weasel Overlord]

Cradling Lady close, I eye up the massive house warily. "Maybe we can get in through a window?" I murmur.

Round 4
The door is locked; you decide to check out the side of the building to see if there are any open windows to exploit, but ultimately find none. In your absent-mindedness, you trip over a rock.

Tripping reveals something shiny in the grass.

Round 3
You have Rawk approach the tiny ice swine and ask him a few questions. The tiny swinub responds,

"I lost my family about twenty minutes ago -- they're usually here but I can't find them."

The flames on Rawk's gauntlets flare up as he notices a pair of raticate swiftly approaching, looking for a fight. Doesn't look like you can avoid it.

-SWOOSH-


100/100


100/100 100/100


Meanwhile, the cable car comes to a hault halfway up the mountain. Thunderhand attempts to give it more power, but something's amiss. Careful inspection sees that a skarmory has perched himself on one of the transformers and is starting peck at it -- maybe that's the cause of this?

What's your next move, Blade?

Round 4
You scoop up the defenseless swinub in your arms and try desperately to communicate with your psychic pokemon on the cable car. Meanwhile, Rawk is challenged by the two raticate.


100/100
Double Kick > Double Kick


100/100 100/100

Before the first raticate can even attack, Rawk Hawk makes short work of him by lifting up his foot swiftly into the rat's jaw, then once again with his other foot [ -12HP + -12HP Raticate1 / -3PP Rawk Hawk ], sending him sailing off the mountain path and out of the battle.

Rawk, however is distracted long enough to miss the second raticate lunging for his arms. However, before he can even bite down, an ice beam blasts him in the back, sending him into the floor [ -15HP Raticate2 / -5PP Grand Star ]. Rawk glares at his ally with a look of relief as Thunderhand reappears right next to him.


100/97 100/95 100/100


85/100

Now greatly outnumbered and outmatched, the second raticate flees battle. Cue victory theme!

Round 5
You congratulate your pokemon for a job well done, and continue up the mountain path. Grand Star scans the area nearby for any signs of a parental figure to the pokemon in your arms, but finds nothing just yet.

You venture up the mountain still in hopes for something to turn up. Along the way, you spot a snorunt rolling up a rather large snowball up the hill, as well as a pidgeotto fluttering her wings in the sky.

What's your next move, Blade?

[Weasel Overlord]

"Okay Lady, I reckon we'll let Sudowoodo be in his house, eh?" I am going to try and edge around him, being as non-confrontational as possible.

Round 6
You ask the runt where he last saw his family.

"It was right where you spotted me -- I had lost them about five minutes before."

With that in mind, you know they couldn'tve gotten very far. Thunderhand, meanwhile, approaches the hard-working snorunt and asks her a few questions to see if she knows anything.

"I saw a family of 'em a ways ahead. I can lead you to 'em, but first I need to get this snowball into my cave."

"Leave it to me."

Thunderhand takes hold of the bulky snow ball and... has trouble pushing it. Seems that it's a lot heavier than it looks. He topples over into the pathway as the snow ball slowly starts levitating a few feet into the air and finally into a cavern twenty feet ahead -- the snorunt merely gazes at Grand Star.

"Well, now that you've helped me, I can show you where they are."

Snorunt begins dashing forward and you give him pursuit.

What's your next move, Blade?

[Blademaster]

Oy, I never agreed to share my quest!

-------------------------

I wonder how the others are doing...?

"Blaaaze..."

I know they can take care of themselves; I'm just saying-... huh? Hey, what's a Swinub doing here?

... Time for some karma points.

Rawk, ask that frozen bacon bit what it's doing out here all alone. Try not to spook it. Maybe we can help it find its family.

"Blaze blaziken?"

No, wiseass, you DON'T look like a bloodhound. Just go talk to the runt. I got an idea.

[Weasel Overlord]

zomfg Drew, cute Nocturne sprite! <3

Woah Lady, this place is well creepy! I wonder why it's abandoned... Better walk on eggshells, eh? Eggshells? Get it? Oh, don't look at me like that you judgemental bugger. And stop eyeing up those eggs. Not interested! Come on, let's go have a poke around in those bushes over there, eh?

[Blademaster]

"Come here, piggy." I said, quickly scooping it up in my arms before it could refuse. "This is a job for the big boys! Speaking of which... Rawk! If those oversized vermin come at you, send them BOTH flying back with a Double Kick and tell 'em to get lost. If they don't listen, you're gonna have to rough 'em up a bit. And by a bit, I mean a lot."

I closed my eyes as Rawk set to work, concentrating on envisioning the mountain, myself, and the cable car on it... My imagination isn't that great, though, and I essentially wound up with a stick figure version of the scene. Whatever, it'd have to work. I imagined myself screaming across the mountain to the cable car, my words taking on a visible form and flying across the snow and ice and rock... and eventually hitting the cable car:

"GRAND STAR! I hope you can communicate with me tele-whatever-ly, because I need some back-up down here! Teleport your nonexistent ass down here and give us some backup! ...Uh... Over!"

"I hope this mountain gets good reception..."

[Blademaster]

Nice timing, Grand Star. Now, we got a little stowaway here... So Imma just carry him with us up the mountain. Grand Star, you use Psychic to scan the area for anybody looking for this little guy. If you pick up on anything, let me know. The rest of you guys, keep an eye out for anybody that might know this little pork pie.

[Blademaster]

OK, pipsqueak, your parents have GOTTA be around here somewhere... Where's the last place you remember being with them? Maybe if we figure that out, we can get something more to go on than just blindly wandering around a huge mountain.

...On that note... Thunderhand, see that Snorunt? Go ask it if it needs a hand in exchange for some information.

[Blademaster]

Nice move, Grand Star. See, this is why I brought you. You're like a big jewel-encrusted Swiss army knife-... Hey!

Crap! Everybody, after that snowcone! Thunderhand, pick up the pace, big fella! Rawk, use Rock Climb to get up there faster; me and Thunderhand'll catch up. iVamonos!

[Blademaster]

Dawwwww, dontcha just love a happy ending guys? ^_^

*cue various moans and gag sounds by my teammates*

Alright, alright, ya wiseasses... We did our good deed for the day. Let's ask Momma-swine if we can check out that weird thingy over down that tunnel over there. Thunderhand, why don't you do the honors this time?

[Blademaster]

Hey, it's a shiny thing! I love those! Thanks, folks!

Welp, we've probably overstayed our welcome, guys. Let's leave these folks in peace and get back to the mountain trail. We'll figure out a new plan from there.


(Grey, you might be here awhile... )

[Blademaster]

Thunderhand, we got bogeys at twelve o'clock!

Ready a Thunderbolt, but don't launch it until you can see the whites of their eyes, so to speak. They might just be curious.

If they really ARE after a fight, you get in there too, Rawk. Use Flamethrowers on that Skarmory while Thunderhand lives up to his name and roasts that raptor!

[Blademaster]

Guys, let's check out that cave. We're not stopping, but there might be something - or someone - of interest in there. If nothing else, we can at least take a break for a few minutes. This mountain's pretty big... Bigger than it looked at the bottom, anyway.

[Blademaster]

What the...?

A CHARMANDER? What's a Fire Pokemon doing HERE?

"Blaz-"

Quiet smartass. The poor thing is freezing. Rawk, give it a little heat and ask it what it's doing all the way out here.

[Blademaster]

Sorry to bother you then, Charms.

Well, guys, we're supposed to be going higher, not lower. But... *looks at the Charmander* ...Ugh... Whatever is down there has got me curious. And I dunno if it eats Charmanders or not.

Guys, let's go check it out.

[Blademaster]

An Abomasnow?!

...This is gonna be simple.

Rawk, you're up. Use Stone Edge, then Flamethrower, and finish with Flare Blitz!

[Blademaster]

What the fuck!?

Rawk! Smack that bitch up with Fire Punch, Sky Uppercut, and finally a point-blank Fire Blast!

Grand Star, blast that mutant Christmas tree with Power Gem, then go into a Rollout and bowl it over!

[Blademaster]

We're gonna shake down these local yokells for information, is what our next move is!

Rawk, use a combo of Double Kick and Blaze Kick on that Mamoswine. Then shake it down and ask why it attacked us. If it won't talk, loosen its lips with some Embers.

Grand Star! Keep the Rollout going as long as you can!

[Blademaster]

Surround him, guys. We're not letting this chance go by.

Rawk, YOU handle the interrogation. Ask that thing why it attacked us. If it won't answer, loosen its lips with a Fire Punch.

If it tries to get away before I SAY it can get away, Grand Star and Thunderhand, stop it in its tracks with Psychic.

[Blademaster]

Fuck, this is going nowhere.

Thunderhand! Rawk Hawk! Double Focus Blast! Grand Star, finish the job with your Gyro Ball!

[Blademaster]

Rawk, return. You're wearing down a bit more than I'd like.

Grand Star, you have some kind of alien psychic radio CPU rock for a brain, right? Run a scan on this pendant we picked up and tell me if you can figure out what its story is.

[Blademaster]

A key, huh? Guess that'd make this a keystone. *rimshot*

Is there anything else in this cave, down here? We should check around. Otherwise we're heading back out, further up the mountain.

[Weasel Overlord]

"Shake things up a bit with a Shadow Ball, Lady! Then use another Faint Attack and finish with a Headbutt."

[Blademaster]

Thunderhand, return for a sec.

Grand Star, Surf me across that lake, to the entrance to the catacombs. That shiny Prinplup is very tempting, but now is not the time.

[Blademaster]

Grand Star, use Waterfall! We've gotta push on, no matter what stands in our way!

[Blademaster]

Grand Star is gone...!?

Rawk! Thunderhand! Get out here now!

*cue two flashes of light*

Guys, you ask that Lapras for any information about Grand Star or what's happened in the last hour. I'll try and psychically contact Grand Star again.

Our adventure is officially on hold: We're mounting a rescue operation.

[Blademaster]

........Well...... It isn't reacting to the pendant......

Alright, Lapras, lead the way.

[Blademaster]

Just keep moving. I'll bypass a Goddamn Regice and split this mountain in two to find my Starmie if I have to.

[Blademaster]

I'll... check the door for some sort of locking mechanism. Maybe it needs a key.
