<Game> Expedia: The Maiden Islands v.9 [M.A. Quicksilver]

[Jay]

Sheik - Yes your pokemon earns levels along the way while fighting other pokemon. The workers will specify when they gain a level. TMs are also findable.

Jay/Cruption/Whatever account you're using now- You ask Seyeneekliatgnolhteetprahs to push Russian666 and yourself towards the clearer spot of water. Oh, yes we did expect you to do that. Then you start looking around that spot to see if there's anything interesting. You don't see much, except for a set of bright colored stones on the bottom of the lake, a hole on the ground among them, and a couple of Luvdiscs swimming around.

-What will you do?

I'll ask Prisma (Russian666) to talk to the Luvdisc a bit. See if we can befriend one of them and if they want to come with us on our pleasant journey. While she's busy talking to the group I'll ask Seyeneekliatgnolhteetprahs if he knows anything about the hole below. If he doesn't then I'll ask Prisma to ask the Luvdisc if they know anything about it.

I'm bringing two of my Adopted Pokemon with me because I feel I can trust them most if this will be a dangerous adventure. I've decided not to bring any items with me as this is my first time here and I'll find or collect them items I need later. I would like to use the Swimming Snorlax to get from Welcome Beach to the Island of Mist hopefully. I figured this would be a good starting point because it's the closest Island I can get to easily from here.

EDIT: Gained some more Stamps.

[Jay]

How the heck do you have so many stamps that quick. ?_?

How the heck do you have so many stamps that quick. ?_?

Been doing Mystery Gifts every day hoping for them. Also try and do Buena's Radio Show now and again.

Since we start out on Mistonnence Dragart (sp?), I'll go to the Island of Mist first. If we have swimming Pokemon, can we use them if we want. If not, I'll just use the Swimming Snorlax.

[Matt]

Matt- "A gypsy had been stalking me and appeared out of no where," you respond. "She told me to come into the ocean and save this island from evil for some reason."
The Golduck raises an eyebrow.
"So... A gypsy stalked you and told you to come here to save the island from evil so you just came and followed her instructions?"
You nod, but the look on the Golduck's face is anything but understanding.
"Tell me something, please," he asks you. "Are you stupid or do you think I am? On second thought, don't bother answering. Follow me, we're going to see the princess. She'll know what to do with you."

-What will you do? Follow the Golduck? Talk to him some more? Try to get out (how)? Or do something else?

[aragornbird]

Sorry for the long delay. And I am currently using a different computer that doesn’t have AIM, since the internet on my other computer won’t work, except in the evenings.
Anyways, I’ll update Gabi, Julina, Pyrusette, Pichu, Anita, and Sheik.

aragornbird- You wait until the Sandstorm receeds. You then notice the Breloom is panting, and so is Aergorn. The Skarmory's lying on the ground, and seems to be making an effort to get back on his feet. You ask him if he's ok and if he can use another Drill Peck, but he seems to be unable to move. The Breloom doesn't look any better. You call Aeragorn back into his pokeball and try to find the ant-hole. You manage to find it before the Breloom gets you, and crawl through it as fast as you can. For a moment, it seems you're safe, but soon you feel the touch of dozens of little legs crawling through your hands and arms...

-What did you expect, it's an ant-hole after all! What will you do now? Get out of the hole, go back to where you found the Brelooms in the first place, keep crawling through the hole in spite of the ants, or do something else?

Location: A cave in a forest, Art Island
Food: 5
Pokedolls: 5
CCPs and Stamps: 222 CCPs/78 Stamps
Pokemon: Aeragorn (LV14 Skarmory, M) Dargonis (LV10 Aerodactyl, M) Slakoth (LV9, F)
Items: None

I'll keep crawling through, but I'll get my Slakoth out and tell her to eat some of the ants as we go along, since it seems to like to do that.

*~*~*~*


Gabi – The Tyranitar merely nods. “Fine, it’s no business of mine,” he says, and stomps off into the distance. You look around and everything seems clear as far as you can see. With your Pokemon by your side, you march forward through the desert, the hot sun beating upon you. A few moments later, you start feeling thirsty, but just then a large shadow swoops overhead. You look up and discover that it’s another Dragonite, one of the dragons you’re trying to help.
What will you do next?

Julina – Your Gligar clutches the magical wand as you fly along the beautiful green meadows. Suddenly, you see something rustling in the grass. A Politoed sticks his head out. Only this Politoed is black and red, not green and yellow. The Politoed eyes you and licks its lips and you realize that you’re still a dragonfly! The frog Pokemon shoots out its long tongue, but you quickly dodge and fly away. The hungry Politoed is now after you!
What will you do next?

Pyrusette – The three Water Pokemon thank you for being so kind and you head off into the forest. The dense leaves of the trees block some of the sunlight, making the air feel much cooler. The Wartortle tugs at your arm and points to the trees above. On top of the massive tree in front of you are some large blue berries. But a troop of Aipom are there too. They spot you and growl angrily, “Our Berries! Our Berries! Not Yours!”.
What will you do next?

Anita – You tell the Lanturn and the Chinchou to jump on board so they could try to heal them. The captain brings out a bag of medical supplies, but shakes his head sadly. “We only have 2 Antidotes left. There’s not enough to heal all of these poisoned Pokemon.” The Lanturn holds up his fin before speaking, “That’s okay. The important thing is that you get rid of this Tentacruel.”
What will you do next?

Pichu – Your Cyndaquil pops out of its PokeBall. Crouching over, it immediately lights up its back and ignites a little fire. Though small, it is strong enough to warm you two and shed some light in this dark cave.
What will you do next?

Sheik – Welcome to Expedia!
With your Vulpix and Lapras safely in their PokeBalls, you step onto the beach and look out to sea, awaiting your mode of transport. In the distance, you can see a large round object steadily floating closer and closer to you. The Snorlax has finally arrived, and pats to the little cushion on his stomach. You climb on and strap yourself in, and the Snorlax takes off, heading for the Island of Mist.
You arrive there quicker than you think and slide off the Snorlax’s belly, thanking him for the ride. In front of you is a barren, snow-covered wasteland. The tall mountains loom ominously up ahead, their peaks covered in dense fog. Where would you like to go first? To the nearby store, left onto Rt. 51, right onto Rt. 67, or through the mountains onto onto Rt. 54?

Yikes! I'll quickly ask Gligar (the only one who possesses his original body and form) to swoop down at the uniquely colored Politoed. I'll also motion for Squirtle (who has transformed into a hawk) to back up Gligar in case Politoed is persistent in having us for lunch. =/

[aragornbird]

I'm gonna take care of one of the newcomers, while Gabi does the other.

Julina – You yell out your cry for help, yet they only come out as little buzzes. Nonetheless, your Gligar and Squirtle see that you’re in danger and quickly fly to your rescue. But something else swoops down as well and slams into the Politoed, knocking it away from you. You turn around just in time to see that same weirdly colored Xatu, who winks at you before flying off, high into the sky.
What will you do next?

Shonta – Welcome to Expedia!
With your two Pokemon securely tucked away in their PokeBalls, you stand upon Welcome Beach and wait for your transportation to arrive. But suddenly, you hear heavy breathing coming from behind a large boulder. You climb over it and see that the Snorlax has already arrived, although it’s sleeping. It eventually wakes up and you sit on the comfy cushion on his belly. A surprisingly swift swimmer, the Snorlax reaches Dragonair Island quicker than you think.
The land in front of you towers with many mountains and you can spot a few large Pokemon soaring around their peaks.
Would you like to go to the store, on Rt. 23 along one side of the mountains, or Rt. 27 along the other?

This is why I asked Ventura and Lagi to come with me. Lagi's empathic powers and Ventura's radar sense can help me find out if it's an illusion and, in case it's not, what the Dragonite is feeling. Then I'll wait to see what happens.


Wolfsong- As Starflare agrees to carry Alexa and Andrew, both children ride on her. You all keep advancing while Serenity scouts for food. Not long afterwards, a group of trees comes to your encounter (or, rather, you come to theirs). These trees seem to form a wide ark from where you're standing. Their tops are unusually round, but some of them are definitely carrying oranges. Others have different sorts of fruit: you can see some spherical yellow ones, and some red ones shaped like rings. Beyond the trees, you notice a set of bushes that are also round-shaped. Some of them might be bearing fruits, but it's too dark to tell and the scents of the oranges and other fruits cloud any other smells. You can hear a faint sound of water coming from the Northwest. The stars don't seemed to have moved for the last few hours, but you feel you've been walking for a long time.

-What will you do? Pick some fruits for your group (Yes: which ones/No)? Take some rest (Yes/No)? Explore the area (Yes: in what direction/No)? Keep walking down Route 3 (Yes/Not for now)? Other (lots of options)?


Charizard04621- With all your pokemon by your side, you approach the group of boys and girls, who stop talking to each other and stare at you oddly as they notice you. Not worrying about what they may think of you, you ask them if they know anything about "that weird tornado". They all look at each other before answering. Then a boy finally turns to you again.
"You're not from around, are you?," he says. "The Vortex has been there since forever."
"Well, not forever, but long enough," one of the girls corrects him. "There are legends about it. Some say it appeared out of nowhere during an epic battle among wizards. Some others say it began forming gradually while the place was being used as a practice field for some dangerous spells. I've even heard that its creators were swallowed by it."
"Its creators or whoever was standing there at the time," another boy adds. "Yes, there are lots of stories about it. And about what happens to the people who get too close. Some say it can take you back and forth in time randomly, some others say it traps you forever into some kind of alternate dimension... Most people say anything can happen, but no one's been inside it and come back to tell the tale, so I guess we'll never know. Why are you asking?"

-How will you respond?


Matt- You follow the Golduck past the doors and through a long corridor. It seems like it's never going to end, but then he finally reaches a door and opens it. Then he turns right, and leads you along... yet another extremely long corridor. You're about to ask 'are we there yet?', when a hideous creature comes to your encounter. It looks like a mermaid, but has a black tail and pale, greyish skin. A long strand of black hair covers the right side of her face, but you can see that her left eye is red, and there's a black rectangle on her cheek that looks almost like a patch. While the creature's lips show no expression, her red eye inspects you carefully.

-What will you do?


Jay- Russian666 is Prisma?! I thought it was a dinghy! And you're floating on her back! O_o Well, you ask her if she can befriend one of the Luvdiscs, but it's hard for her to talk to the underwater pokemon while still carrying you around. In the meantime, you ask Seyeneekliatgnolhteetprahs if he knows anything about the hole below.
"It looks like a cave or something," he tells you, looking as clueless as a Huntail can.
You then ask Prisma if she can ask the Luvdisc if they know anything about it. She makes an effort to speak into the water, but that only seems to scare the Luvdisc away, as they swim quickly down to the bottom of the lake and into the hole.

-What will you do now?


andyizcool- Welcome to Expedia, and sorry for the delay! You stand at the port of Welcome Beach as you wait for your transport to arrive. Minutes pass and nothing seems to happen. But then, after some time, you hear a loud and deep yawning sound coming from behind. You look back, and notice a large bulk approaching you with loud, heavy steps. Looks like your transport has finally arrived! Once he's standing right in front of you, the Snorlax lifts an arm as a greeting, but ends up using it to cover another yawn. Then he lets his fall back first into the water. You get closer, wondering if he's fallen asleep. All you can tell is that he's not snoring... yet. Cautiously, you touch his stomach and, when you're sure that it's firm, you slowly sit on it. At that moment, the Snorlax lifts one of his arms, throwing it back into the water with a big splash. He does the same with the other, and his whole body starts moving. You manage to regain balance before you fall, and from then on things are a bit quieter. You're now advancing through the ocean. After a while, you can see nothing around you but the sky, the water and the stars. The waves swing calmly by your side, and water sprouts out whenever the Snorlax lets his heavy arms fall. For an interval in which time doesn't seem to pass, everything is calm. But time does pass, and you soon notice a lighter area in the horizon. Some minutes later, the lighter area takes the shape of a large triangle, and later the shape of an island, high peaks emerging from the mist that covers most of the land. You keep getting closer, until you finally reach your destination. The Snorlax stops advancing right before reaching te shore, leaving you to descend on your own. When you do so, he lifts one of his arms again and shakes it. He then yawns again, and starts snoring immediately.

-Where will you go now? Will you walk along Route 54, head for Blizzard Peak, reach for the nearest mountain, or go somewhere else?


aragornbird- You keep crawling through the ant-filled tunnel while Slakoth tries to eat as many ants as she can't. However, she can't eat very fast, and the ants keep coming the more you advance. It's as if they were multiplying! You insist on crawling further, until you finally find an opening. It seems like some sort of cave, except that there are ants everywhere! You can also see many tunnels heading in all directions, just like the one you're in. It looks like you've reached Ant City!

-What will you do now? Go back to the Brelooms? Stick with the ants? Or do you have other ideas?


Subliminal Seranade- Welcome to Expedia! As soon as you reach the port and ask for a Rollout Azumarill, the long-eared blue pokemon comes to fetch you and your Bagon. After greeting you, the Azumarill curls up, starts rolling and then dashes forward until it reaches the sea. Once there, it keeps spinning as it float. All of a sudden, something yellow begins to emerge from the water. It grows until it takes the form of a dinghy (and not a Blissey, for those reading everyone's updates). The Azumarill stops rolling and looks at you, gesturing for you and your friend to get on the plastic boat. Once you've both complied, the water pokemon gets down and starts rolling again, pulling the dinghy forward at a high speed. You sail swiftly across the ocean, carried by the rolling Azumarill under the starry sky. At the speed you're going, Art Island doesn't take a long time to come into sight. And once it has, it takes even shorter for you to reach it. The Azumarill starts slowing down shortly before reaching the island, and comes to a complete halt when the dinghy gets to the shore. You and Shinryuu get off and, once you're both standing on the beach, the Azumarill spin-dashes again, back to where it came from.

-What will you do now? Explore the beach? Walk along Route 32? Go to the store? Follow the river? Head to the forest? Or do something else?

I think that we'll take a short break for now to rest or legs. I knkow that we have a ways to go, so we won't stay too long. While we're resting, I'll ask Serenity and if they can get us some of those oranges. After we eat, and are once more ready to travel, we get get back on the road continuing along Route 3 towards Pixie City.

Looking at the options I have upon arriving at this strange new place I'm not sure what to do. I could follow Route 54 and see where it leads but it'll just go deeper into the centre of the island. I could climb the highest mountain but I might need some supplies first. So I guess I'll be heading towards Blizzard Peak and see what happens next.

Shonta – Welcome to Expedia!
With your two Pokemon securely tucked away in their PokeBalls, you stand upon Welcome Beach and wait for your transportation to arrive. But suddenly, you hear heavy breathing coming from behind a large boulder. You climb over it and see that the Snorlax has already arrived, although it’s sleeping. It eventually wakes up and you sit on the comfy cushion on his belly. A surprisingly swift swimmer, the Snorlax reaches Dragonair Island quicker than you think.
The land in front of you towers with many mountains and you can spot a few large Pokemon soaring around their peaks.
Would you like to go to the store, on Rt. 23 along one side of the mountains, or Rt. 27 along the other?

RAWR! ... Why no one told me this game was updated? --;

Pichu – Your Cyndaquil pops out of its PokeBall. Crouching over, it immediately lights up its back and ignites a little fire. Though small, it is strong enough to warm you two and shed some light in this dark cave.

[Lady Vulpix]

I've managed to post here at last! I don't know what AB's plans are, and I haven't been able to catch her online yet, so I'll update for Amy, Karin and Andy and hope he updates for me, Julina, Shonta, Subliminal Serenade and Tom (or, if he tells me his plans, I can update for someone else too).

Amy- Your group decides to take a short rest to recover your strength. In the meantime, you ask Serenity and a being of undisclosed name if they can pick some oranges for everyone. The children seem to feel better after having something to eat. You find it hard to peel the oranges in your current form, but Alexa offers you her help, happy to be useful. By this time, Andrew has finished his part and fallen asleep on Starflare's back. You close your eyes for a moment, but do your best effort not to fall asleep, as you know you still have a long way to go. When you feel like you're ready to go again, your ears pick a rambling sound. Something's rolling in your direction, and shaking the bushes as it advances.

-What will you do? Wait for whatever is making that sound? Go to its encounter? Get up and continue your journey? Or do something else?


Andy- Looking at the options you have upon arriving at this strange new place, you're not sure of what to do. You look around for some time and, after contemplating the alternatives, decide to head for Blizzard Peak and see what you can find. You carefully walk across the frosty grounds, always keeping your eyes on the mountain ahead of you. When you're almost there, you notice a small cottage placed at the base of the mountain.

-What will you do? Take a closer look at the cottage? Start climbing the mountain? Or do something else?


Karin- You tell the group that something strange and evil brought you to the vortex, and after you battled and defeated it, voices from the tornado warned me about "others" and told you to run away. They don't seem to know what to make of it.

"You say you've been hearing voices and fighting evil things?," one of the guys tells you.
"That didn't sound right," the girl next to him tells him. She then turns to you. "See, I don't know what happened to you, but I think you should see someone."
"Yes. Definitely. You should get help," the previous boy says, right before getting his stomach hit by the girl's elbow. "Ouch! Hey, I'm just trying to help her!"
"She may be right, you know. Strange things happen around the Vortex. We shouldn't laugh about what we don't understand," she replies before addressing you again. "I think you should talk to the Guru. If something strange is going on, she must know about it. She lives in a temple in the center of the city. You'll find it if you follow this street to the west. Though you may have to go through some challenges if you want to see her."

-What will you do? Ask more questions? Head to the temple? Or do something else?

I'll ask Ralts if she could teleport to where the rumbling is coming from and find out what it is, and if necessary, teleport us out of harms way.

[Lady Vulpix]

Karin- You thank the group and head towards the west with Switchblade and Evenstar by your side, hoping to find the temple. The quiet outskirts of the city soon give way to more crowded streets, with people coming in and out of stores, pubs and other places. You keep walking until you find an old building placed at a crossing of 4 streets, with 2 men dressed as monks standing at the front gate. One of them approaches you and asks you your name. His eyes open widely upon hearing your reply.

"Follow me, please," he tells you. "The Guru has been waiting for you. Normally you'd have to go through a series of tests to be allowed to see her, but now the situation is critical and we have no time to lose."

-What will you do?


Patrick- Welcome back! You got the name of the island right. Sorry that most of the maps are currently unavailable. I need to contact Tyler on that matter. Fire and Ice to Dragonair Island... that's how I started out!

You stand on Welcome Beach with your 2 pokemon by your side, while you wait for you transport to arrive. Soon, you start noticing movement in the water and, just a couple of seconds later, a Spheal comes out. The pokemon looks at you and immediately starts shooting large balls of ice into the water, each of them making a louder splash then the previous one. As the frozen sphears start floating, the Spheal begins to hop from one ice ball to another, shooting more as it advances. But then it turns back and notices you're not following, and sees the older ice balls being moved away by the waves. The round pokemon sighs and swims back to the shore, deciding to go for a more traditional method. It then shoots an Ice Beam into the water which slowly begins to freeze, forming a growing bridge that extends all the way to Dragonair Island. You follow the Spheal to the other side, which is actually quite a long walk. Once there, you see a Swinub waiting on the shore of Dragonair Island. The snow hog looks puzzled when he sees you coming through the bridge. Then a Rapidash comes over and, with a neigh, gently pushes the Swinub away. The Swinub then realizes his help is not required, and leaves with a blush on his face.

The Rapidash waits for all of you to step on the sand, and then uses a Flamethrower to help the ice bridge melt faster. The fire pokemon then neighs again and walks away, along with the Spheal. Ice pokemon are acting strangely tonight! (Yes, it's still night all over the Maiden Islands as it has been for many hours now).

-What will you do? Follow route 23 or route 27? Explore the sea around the island with its famous coral reef? Head for the mountains? Or do something else? (Sorry if I'm missing any options, it's hard to list them all without the map).


Amy- You ask Ralts if she could teleport you to the source of the sound and, if necessary, teleport you out of harm's way. She nods and, before you know it, you're on another part of the forest. You then see a red and white sphere rolling towards you at a high speed. You react quickly and jump out of the way before it hits you. At the same time, the ball turns to the right and ends up crashing against a tree. It then stops its movement and emits a loud, metallic cry.

-What will you do now?

If the rest of the team is with me, I'll have Ranec come with me as we cautiously approach it. I'll ask it if its ok. However if its unfriendly, or attacks, I'll have Ralts use disable and ranec confuse ray. If its just me and ralts, i'll ask her to disable it. if its friendly i'll try and find out what was going on with it.

[Lady Vulpix]

Karin- Suspicious at how things have turned out to be so easy, you decide to follow the monk but keep your guard up in case it's a trap. You walk up a set of stairs and another monk comes to your encounter, but before he can speak, the one who's guiding you talks to him and he steps away. The same thing happens when you reach the 2nd floor. This time you manage to make out something of what he's saying: "I'm coming with the 9th, we must make an exception this time". Then, on the 3rd floor, the monk stops.

"This challenge is mechanical and can't be avoided like the others," he tells you. "It's a maze. We must turn on some switches to get to the other side. It shouldn't take too long. I can do it on my own while you wait here, or you can come with me. What do you prefer?"

You can see a map on the wall in front of you:

-What will you decide?


Amy- Since Ralts has only managed to bring you along with her, you ask her to use Disable on the mysterious sphere. A light envelops the round creature, and a couple of shocked eyes apear on its surface.

"Who are you? Why are you attacking me?," it asks with the same metallic voice.

-How will you respond?

Welcome back, Jay!!!!

I'll repost my last move so that aragornbird doesn't have trouble finding him when he comes to update. I'll update for Karin, Amy and Patrick while Jay will update for Subliminal Seranade and Shonta, and aragornbird should update for me, Tom and Julina. Our apologies to everyone for the delays in updating.

Minstonnence Dragart/Door #17: Desert/Completed Doors: #6/Noctowl, Mareep, Lagi (Dragonite), Ventura (Venomoth), Kabuto, Vulpix/Stamps and CCPs on my Items page/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 page, Special Blend Tea.
This is why I asked Ventura and Lagi to come with me. Lagi's empathic powers and Ventura's radar sense can help me find out if it's an illusion and, in case it's not, what the Dragonite is feeling. Then I'll wait to see what happens.


Amy- You explain that you were being careful and didn't want to be attacked. You apologize to the pokemon and ask it why it was rolling like it was.

"Oh, I was training for the annual Circle Forest Rollout competition," it tells you. "It's next week. I need to get ready. But now I can't seem to get rolling anymore. How long will it take before I can roll again?"

The eyes of the spherical pokemon show frustration. It shakes its body to no avail, while a flapping of winds resounds above you and soon fades away.

"Can you please take back what you did to me?," it asks your Ralts.

-What will you do now?


Patrick- You ask your pokemon if Route 23 is fine for them, and they both accept. You all then start walking along the road, eager to see where it takes you. To your right, you can see the high mountain peaks. The sand disappears from the landscape soon after you set feet on the road, but you can still see the see beyond the cliffs on your left.

You keep walking until you notice three figures ahead. As you get closer, you can recognize the shapes of a young woman (around 20 years of age), with a Mareep and a Heracross walking by her side. She hears you and turns to look at you.

-What will you do?


Karin- Not wanting to say no to a challenge, you decide to follow the monk across the maze. He then asks you to stay in front of the green door while he pulls the first switch. He walks towards the left wall and, with a simple maneuver, he triggers a mechanism that makes the green wall in front of you start moving.

The wall slides down and disappears into the floor.

"Watch out for the holes on your left," the monk tells you, walking back to your side. "Follow the arrow path until you find the next switch, then pull it down. There's a secret prize on the left if you or your pokemon can make it past the holes on the floor to get it, but we mustn't waste time, so make sure you pull the switch as fast as possible. I'll stay here and wait for the arrows to change so I can pull the third switch."

This is your current status:

-What will you do now? Head straight for the arrows? Try to get the secret prize (how)? Try to do both (how)? Or do something else?

[Jay]

Subliminal Serenade
A frosty wind picks up as you walk towards the river, in hope to seek adventure. After a small walk along the spacious trail along the route, you discover the river at last. A pack of Pidgey fly over ahead heading towards the infamous Icuno Peak. The zephyr heightens rigidly. The trees are blowing frantically in the airstream, as you try and avoid them in case they fell. With no where to go, you truck onwards.

Looking down into the river, you notice it’s very rough. Ripples form in the large river, heightening to splash up onto the grassy plains. You feel it’s a little unsafe to get too close, so you back out where you’re safe in the middle of a fairly small pasture. Near the small amount of trees behind you, you discover two Loudred. They look at you and begin to laugh sardonically, then they resume with their conversation. However, they do keep looking at you occasionally with the blind eye.

What would you like to do now?


classy_cat18
You tackle Route 23 of Dragonair Island, along the mountains with a few cliffs in sight. You gaze at many of the high mountains all around while you walk, staggered at the height and beauty of the scenery you gape at. You stop and wave to a few Pichu sitting down next to a couple of rocks. As the majority of the bunch sleep, you choose to move onwards, not disturbing any of their slumber.

While you walk further, you hear footsteps from behind you. Quickly turning around, you see a boy with an Igglybuff and a Poliwag. You can’t distinguish the boy due to the mist surrounding the area, but he stops in his tracks, with his pokemon, along with you wondering what you plan to say or do.

What will you do?

I'll ask Ralts to release her disable hold on the voltorb. Then i'll ask him if he'd like to join us. If so i'll ask ralts to teleport us both back to the group. If not, i'll apologize again an have ralts teleport be back.

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy- You ask Ralts to release her disable hold on the Voltorb, and she does so. The Voltorb tries rolling again and this time it succeeds.

"At last!," it sighs after rolling around for a couple of seconds. "I guess I can still make it after all."

You then ask the pokemon if he would like to join you.

"What?!," he says. "And miss the competition I've been training so hard for? No, thanks. Just let me keep training. I've lost some valuable time here."

With that, it rolls away.

Letting the Voltorb go, you ask Ralts to teleport you back to where you left the others. When she does, Alexa and all the pokemon greet you joyfully (Andrew's still asleep). Alexa asks you where you'd gone and what you found, while Andrew shakes in his sleep.

At that moment, you hear the same flapping you'd heard before, only now it sounds closer, and it's coming your way.

-What will you do?

You stop and wave to a few Pichu sitting down next to a couple of rocks. As the majority of the bunch sleep, you choose to move onwards, not disturbing any of their slumber.

While you walk further, you hear footsteps from behind you. Quickly turning around, you see a boy with an Igglybuff and a Poliwag. You can’t distinguish the boy due to the mist surrounding the area, but he stops in his tracks, with his pokemon, along with you wondering what you plan to say or do.

What will you do?

Route 23/Dragonair Island/56 CCPS/22 Stamps/5 food/5 pokedolls/Pokemon companions: Moriko (adopted female Heracross), Beacon (adopted female Mareep)

I'll walk to him and say hi.

Amy- You ask Ralts to release her disable hold on the Voltorb, and she does so. The Voltorb tries rolling again and this time it succeeds.

"At last!," it sighs after rolling around for a couple of seconds. "I guess I can still make it after all."

You then ask the pokemon if he would like to join you.

"What?!," he says. "And miss the competition I've been training so hard for? No, thanks. Just let me keep training. I've lost some valuable time here."

With that, it rolls away.

Letting the Voltorb go, you ask Ralts to teleport you back to where you left the others. When she does, Alexa and all the pokemon greet you joyfully (Andrew's still asleep). Alexa asks you where you'd gone and what you found, while Andrew shakes in his sleep.

At that moment, you hear the same flapping you'd heard before, only now it sounds closer, and it's coming your way.

-What will you do?

I'll have the pokemon be ready just in case. Then i'll ask Serenity (Togetic) if she can see what's making that sound. If she can, i'll ask her what it is. If she can't i'll tell her that its okay. Meanwhile, I'll have Ralts show Alexa what happened using her psychic powers.

[color=hotpink]Karin- Not wanting to say no to a challenge, you decide to follow the monk across the maze. He then asks you to stay in front of the green door while he pulls the first switch. He walks towards the left wall and, with a simple maneuver, he triggers a mechanism that makes the green wall in front of you start moving.

The wall slides down and disappears into the floor.

"Watch out for the holes on your left," the monk tells you, walking back to your side. "Follow the arrow path until you find the next switch, then pull it down. There's a secret prize on the left if you or your pokemon can make it past the holes on the floor to get it, but we mustn't waste time, so make sure you pull the switch as fast as possible. I'll stay here and wait for the arrows to change so I can pull the third switch."

This is your current status:

-What will you do now? Head straight for the arrows? Try to get the secret prize (how)? Try to do both (how)? Or do something else?
