Welcome back.Rules are simple: Votes are tallied every hour, with whatever course of action being the most popular being the course of action taken. Write ins are encouraged and non-mutually exclusive votes will be combined if possible.When a roll is called for, roll however many D100 are specified. 5- is a 'crit fail' and generally means something bad is about to happen. 95+ is a 'crit success' and generally means something good just happened. a 'crit success' trumps a crit fail. User input on both will be taken into consideration.Inventory, pokemon stats and other links: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15i2N08IpWqitoTJujsUMishe4PLbao1lqT-bCAmvPcE/editDiscord: https://discord.gg/B9rHx5ZwFor a short summary for the new and to recap:You are Alex. A newly minted trainer and camping enthusiast just starting out on your journey at the age of seventeen after your father lost his job in order to help pay the bills. On the road, you met Fie, the Fire Gym Leader, Gareth a novice Aura Guardian on pilgrimage and Holly, a runaway heiress using a pseudonym. You've also made enemies of Team Green a group of violent, radical activists looking to abolish pokemon training.Recently, Fie returned to her gym for the time being.Last thread, Queenie evolved, you made it back to Saltcoast, spent the night with Fie and in the morning, started preparing to move on.
There're a few things you figure you ought to pick up before you leave, so with breakfast done, you and the others set off for town to track down supplies.Fie gives you some directions before going to open her gym.It's actually pretty quiet when you get to town and there aren't many trainers around.When you head to the tack shop you rented the flying harness for the Barrier Islands from, it's to find they're selling things at a steep discount and, when you ask why, you're informed that there aren't as many trainers coming through so far this year, owing to Team Green's antics, even if they've been curtailed lately.Not one to pass up an opportunity, you pick up a new flying harness for cheap and, after some consideration, a saddle for Blitz when he evolves.When you reconvene, you spy a TM Store and just a few doors down from it, an adult toy store.>Check out the TM Store.>Check out the adult store. Ought to be fun, right?>Okay, time to move. Onward to Route 4.>Look for battles.>Other

>>6022547>>6023492>>6023522>>6023526With a shrug, you head towards the TM store.Just like most other trainer-centric stores right now, there's a sale going on and there're some great deals being offered.One that catches your eye is Natural Gift.Given all the berries you've amassed so far, you figure you could get some use out of it.Holly meanwhile, buys Fly and Gareth buys Detect while Martha browses.Once you've paid, you wander on over to the adult store with complete non-chalance as the others follow.When you peek back, Holly and Martha are both blushing and Gareth is desperately acting cool as you head into the building and around a blacked out trellis that you assume is up for reasons of good taste.You stop cold however, when you get around to see the cashier being held up by two twig-armed Team Green thugs in their usual get-up.>Get 'em.>Snap a photo.>...Time to leave.>Start browsing.>Other

>>6026440>>6026455>>6026475>>6026499Oh, this is too perfect.You lean around the corner and snap a picture of the two goons - compromising contraband in hand - threatening the cashier, before ducking back around and signalling the others.You don't even need to say anything, they just duck down and creep around to encircle the pair before you stride around the corner."So... is this normal for Team Green or were you two just feeling amorous?" You ask, making the pair jump about a foot in the air as they turn to face you.Then the one closest to the counter gets clubbed in the face with a dildo that's got the approximate size, shape and mass of a mace, knocking him to the floor as the cashier takes the opportunity as presented, then ducks behind his counter.>Let Martha handle it.>Let gareth handle it.>Let Holly handle it.>Go ->OtherParty:Rascal (Braviary)Nika (Riolu)Piker (Feebas)Volta (Luxray) Fluffy (Eevee) EverstoneRusty (Aron)

Rolled 49 (1d100)>>6027066>>6027092"Volta, come on out."

The grunt who's up orders, clearly still rattled by being snuck up on and seeing his friend get clubbed by what you're fairly sure is a to-scale reproduction of a Tyrannitar's penis.Ordinarily, this wouldn't be a problem.Volta's immune to paralysis due to her typing, but in the tight quarters, it's a problem, because everyone's in the line of fire.Fortunately, Volta moves first and her flaming bite makes Gloom flinch, leaving the grunt standing there and looking stupid as Martha charges in and slugs him in the gut, before putting him in a headlock and pinning him as Gareth non-chalantly pins the other grunt to the ground by dint of putting his staff between his shoulders and applying enough pressure to communicate that trying to get up would be a very poor choice.>Move>Get Gloom's poke ball and recall it.>OtherMoves:TackleLeerThundershockBiteSparkFire FangThunder FangProtectDouble KickAgility

>>6031007Alex gets stun spored I guess.
>>6030898>>6031007>>6031148You need to act fast before things go sideways.So, when the opportunity presents itself, you dart in and yank Gloom's poke ball out of its trainer's hand and recall it before it can try getting a Stun Spore off.That done, you sigh with relief as Martha finally pins the grunt she's grappling in an arm bar.The cashier sighs with relief as he stands back up, still clutching his improvised bludgeon, which now you see it properly is indeed a to-scale reproduction of a Tyrannitar penis."Normally, I'd ask if you kids were old enough to be in here." He notes. "That being said, you did just stop me from being robbed, so I'll look the other way on that and give you half off whatever takes your fancy, so long as you're gone before the cops get here. Deal?"You look to the others, who shrug.>Sure.>All good, we were just looking.>Just some condoms.>Other

The cashier says, pointing you to a rack, then further back into the store past shelves laden with various implements - most of them phallic in nature - to a selection of books dealing with intimate matters.You quickly locate what you're after before looking around to see what the others were doing.Gareth is presently paying for something you can't see and Holly and Martha are both wandering and pretending not to be curious about the contents of the shelves.>Okay, time to leave.>Browse the bookshelf, all this stuff is informational.>Dare someone to buy something.>Other

>>6038689If it had've been a crit-fail, it would've been an extrapolation on the Vaporeon copypasta. I had a punchline all lined up.As it stands...Well, give me some more suggestions.I swear, this will remain tasteful and this is tongue-in-cheek, but might as well mentally scar Alex a little, right?
>>6038689Unless you're making a 'Playboy' reference?
>>603876363 is just normal health and safety books along with bondage play.35 furry costume books which Alex skips after being horrified at the ones with bionic appendages. 24 is straight up chtulu-pokemon style tentacle porn novels straight out of Kanto that would make anyone hate or fear Tentacruel. Alex now remembers how his parents always dodged anything mentioning Tentacruel and Kanto in one sentence for a reason.
>>603876524 is furry costume books which turned out not really realistic cosplay but Lopunny and Gardevoir dressed up to appear being fakely cosplayed into for legal reasons
>>6038763>If it had've been a crit-fail, it would've been an extrapolation on the Vaporeon copypastaDang.
>>6038604>>6038689>>6038702>>6038761>>6038765>>6038801Gareth comes to join you browsing while the girls check out a display of skimpy outfits.There're a few books that are worth a look - texts on safety, exercises, hygiene and healthy diets and the basics of bondage, but interspersed between them is some shit you did not need to know were a thing:Shitty costume books that make your gag reflex act up, especially the ones with bionic appendages. It's even worse considering there're an appreciable number of the photos of the people wearing them intimately involved.It's not even how deep in the uncanny valley the costumes are - it's the anatomical inaccuracies that are irritating you to no end.Your mother basically unofficially put you through the nursing course before she allowed you to help at the pokemon centre half time and part of that was an extensive study on pokemon anatomy.So these half-assed costumes are triggering your 'tism more than they probably should.The next one features a Lopunny and Gardevoir done up in reverse to look like costumes and this is about where you just stop caring and walk away.It isn't even the degeneracy so much as the idiocy - Gardevoir have no problem turning potential aggressors into pretzels telekinetically if they really feel like it and Loppuny...Well, you've heard enough nurse's gossip to put together that that's probably a *really* bad idea unless you've got the stamina of a marathon runner and don't mind bruising and a shattered pelvis."Okay, we're done here." You say, taking a couple of the actually useful books and going to pay with the girls.Their purchases are already in their bags when you get there and the clerk offers no commentary as you pay, before your group departs and heads towards the north of town.>Wait, you forgot...>Finally. Let's go.>Other

She says, pointing to just off shore.You follow her pointing finger and stop cold as you see what has her smiling:There's a pod of Lapras just off shore."Oh, wow." Martha says. "Right place, right time. We must've caught them while they're heading up to the tropics for the winter."Your eye is caught by movement in the water and you do a double take.Talk about a hard choice.There's a Mudkip under the bridge.>Catch Wimpod.>Catch a Lapras.>Catch Mudkip.>Keep going.>Other
