>Sam and Chadley
"COMING THROUGH ah uh, godsdamnit!"
>A goddamn Gorilla! Or whatever the hell that is!
>What an impasse
>One that Chadley solved through blocking
"I don't have time for this nonsense!"
>With the T--99 blocked, Sam rushes onwards...
>But not without first opening the hatch for FIo and letting loose some complimentary missiles upon the T-99, softening it for Chadley

>Mho and Dyne
>Not a hatch?
>"Ah, hell!"
>Oh, it's more gun
>OH IT'S MORE FIRE GUN
>The gauntlets hold, but, that hurt
"THAT MERELY STINGED."
>Not really
>Still, two things were learned: one, Bull Frog somehow has a 'trick' on how he enters the tank...if he is even actually entering it
>Two, this gun might be another weak point in the electrical system
>Sensing flows
...and THUNDER PUNCH, somewhere near the hatch but not directly on the hatch

>Dyne is having a grand time spinning
"What, did you just notice? You're too slow."
>Now he's getting chatty too
>But gritting his teeth. It feels like he is shit talking the mother he never met.
>Protector holds, but, that was painful
>Time to keep Gyro Ball, aiming to keep main cannon and gatling gun from firing

>And Bull Frog is talking, again, and Mho replies
"I know what I will TAKE! IT WILL BE YOUR UGLY DAMN HEAD!"
>Battle yell, before he strikes

>>>SAM & CHADLEY
"Go, Sam, go!"
>Chadley growled at the T-99.
"Alright, you're scrap metal."
>Fio disembarked and then boarded the Vlad!
"Uncle Sam! Ah, big brother, Mho! I'm coming!"
>She looked peppy as ever!
>Sam was almost to the firing range...

>>>DYNE & MHO
>33
>DUBS OF ENEMY SUCCESS
"Oh, did that sting? Then this is about to hurt a lot more, Thunderbust."
>The Bull Tank fired a salvo!
>It hit Mho dead on!
>That same, Electrode like explosion again rocked him to his core...
>Mho took 400 damage!
"It isn't over yet, either! Take this!"
>The Bull Tank fired its S-E, 'Ace Of Spades'!
>Fire bullets!
>Mho took an extra 200 damage!
"Come on! Try harder than that!"
>His request was met with Mho's Thunder Punch!
>Smack dab onto the back of the Bull Tank!
>9
>It... plinked off!?
>But the resulting electricity made the Bull Tank stop right in its tracks!
"Oh, you're a..."
>Dyne's Gyro Ball!
>8
>A direct hit!
>The Bull Tank's main cannon was damaged! It might end up not working!
>200 SP worth of damage to the Bull Tank!
"Son of a bitch, you two are anno~ying."
>The Bull Tank revved!
>Bull Frog initiated a High-Speed Operation...
>4
>But Mho's electricity prevented movement!
"Oh, blow me."
>Bull Frog laughed.
"Alrighty then..."
>Bull Frog sounded like he was fiddling with something in there.
"What a day this has been. First intruders, then the security system, now a tank battle with two Pokemon who refuse to lay down and die."
>A laugh.
"Wouldn't you know it? Lucky me."
>The Bull Tank's engine changed... noise.
"That's what I'm saying, Thunderbust! Ignoring the consequences, taking what you want! All that old world shit. And here you are, thinking that you're fighting for the greater good! You know what you're fighting for, ya big electric ape? I'll tell you what you're fighting for - a /dustbowl/ that deserved to be nothing more than that in the first place!"
>There was some real venom to his voice then...
>The doors to the firing range opened!
>>
>>79749139
>For clarification, Sam & Fio entered the range, too!

>Ooh right, right
>Could be done yeah, move the panels and wiring over to the new hat. Rotom with the hat!

>He might have to tell the rest of them, unless they'd rather hear it straight from Sam and Kauket in person
>That too
"Yeah, there's that. Do we need anything else for that?"
>Indeed

>He handles shocks shockingly well, being an Electric type and all
"Is it already? Damn... Must've been longer than I thought."
>She then... Talks to the electric cloud on her shoulder
"Did you have people you wanna call?"
>Too late for turkey, but he can at least apologize for missing out


>>79736300
>Yes but what ai model? When's the last time you updated?
>Perhaps that's what pushed her to keep teasing him, to see how much longer he could keep this up- if he just immediately folded, there wouldn't be any challenge
>Whether or not Taner and everyone else was there didn't really seem to matter to her, and in fact might only make it more fun for her, as him not hearing the end of it would only add to the whole tortuous teasing experience

>And while they hadn't known each other for very long, something about Sekhmet rang truer, sturdier than with the average one-night stand
>Sure, it could always just end up being a fling, but it's also extremely unlikely that he could do something to upset her, or cause her to want to backstab him. She just didn't seem like that type of person to get offended or vexed that easily, so at most they would likely remain friends by the end of it all
>Sekhmet waited over the table, smiling as Apache psyched himself up, ready to take on her dare
"Well~?"
>And as luck would have it, the crashing of plates and utensils gave him the perfect window of opportunity to strike
>Smooch!
>He might've meant to make it a quick one... But Sekhmet grabbed him by his jacket, forcing him to remain lip-locked with her just a few seconds longer, precious seconds which she used to part his lips with her own and plunge her tongue into his mouth, wrestling and kneading his own before finally letting go of him
>Her own lips were pristine, spotless, despite the many years on the battlefield, thanks to that nifty shapeshifting ability that allowed to regenerate practically any and all physical wounds
>And as for her taste, well, of course it was very sweet. But also exotic, with a noticeably fruity, slightly baked aroma. Dates? Oranges? Hard to say really. She tasted like sunbaked nectar by a summer afternoon, candied sunset. A caramel promise that was as tempting as it was foreign and mysterious
>As they both sit back down into their respective seat, Sekhmet's expression hasn't changed much, still just as playful if not more-so
"They have, yes."
>Her eyes appear to glow even more brightly as he admits to that
"Are you sure you're ready for that? It might be more than you bargained for."
>It might sound like she's turning him down, but her eyes and actions say anything but. If anything, it's more like a warning, for his own sake

>True!

>Indeed
>Maybe! That would certainly explain it. Maybe stuff can't get cool if it's in stasis? So fridges can't do that? Or maybe higher-end fridges have both options?
>lol classic Taner :P
"The important thing is to make progress each day."
>That seems just fine by Eldena, seeing how she reacted to Fea's yapping, and is now ignoring him, perhaps faster than any other guest they've ever had over

>And then Star confirmed
"I can tell."
>Said with the confidence of someone who believes anyone with half a brain would immediately notice that- at least, she thinks so. She might be better at reading people than most
>Then...
>The little fox nods a little
"Yes, that makes sense. You're the closest to him physically, too."
>She means as in standing close to someone... But both Taner and Star (and possibly Fea) might think she's talking about some other kind of physical closeness
>Especially considering her sense of smell is likely extremely sharp, being a fox and all. She likely already smelled that -before- any fish-patty cooking action started taking place
>But so far, she makes no mention of it
>Scratching herself with a hind paw, she adds:
"Well, you certainly make up quite the large bunch, that's true..."
>Which is probably not something she's used to, as thieves rarely tend to work in large groups
>She then looks back at Star, seemingly sizing her up some more as she did previously
>What exactly is she seeing in her?
"...... Say, you wouldn't happen to be unable to evolve, would you?"

(That's not bad at all! The characters and poses are great! And so are the other two images below! I don't know how you do it Taner!)

>I've found out as of this morning that it is in fact 'reForge' most recent version.
>Anyway...
>Apache felt like he'd been stunned in the best possible way. No one had ever grabbed his jacket in the romantic sense before nor had ever been as forceful as she.
>A core memory came back to him, one of the twins at 'Bar Thirsty' singing a particular song. Their band had gotten a guitar player that day from somewhere way out, Eden, perhaps.
>It was a song about women, rather, a particular type of woman. A woman that demanded your full presence, one that invited and delighted, but also devoured. It'd left him both in awe and reminded him of a former partner who'd gone in the past.
>Right now, Sekhmet, intentionally, re-awoke those feelings within him.
>He inhaled.
"More than what I bargained for?"
>Apache rolled his shoulders and took off his jacket.
>He was a lot more built than he let on, broad chest, rugged shoulders, the abs, all of it. How did that jacket hide it so well?
"Sekhmet, if I didn't know what I was getting myself into, I would've been a spelunker. I'm not a caveman, I'm a soldier. More than a soldier, I'm a man."
>His voice held more clarity, and raised an octave. He didn't whisper anymore, and it seemed that embarrassment had all but left him at this point.
"You're talking about bargains and you haven't even seen all of me either, missy. I've fist fought giant ants, held weapons that are twice my size, and tossed a robot off of a swan boat's neck. Even if I didn't do that, I'm firm in saying this."
>He leaned forward and Sekhmet managed to see some of those old scars open up. Crags on a rugged mountain.
"You do things to me and make me feel things that I felt couldn't happen to me anymore. Here I am, proven wrong again."
>His smiled widened and he reached forward, taking hold of one of her hands. His grip felt... superhuman.
"I don't want this feeling to stop. And I want to see where we go."
>Maria blushed, and Fei raised a brow.

>Sam and Chadley
>The Vlad Prototype is barely deacelerating so Fio can hop on
>Sam is on that much of a rush!
"I have a mildly bad feeling."
>ENTERING THE RANGE

>Mho and Dyne
>These gauntlets are built though, but they are getting very strained with this repeated assault
>They will for sure need an extensive rebuilding afterwards
>And Mho himself has begun to bleed
>But, each hit also means Mho can counter, in spades
"You DONE having a tantrum?"
>THUNDER PUNCH
>The armor of the tank hold, but the electricity zapped 'something' inside
>Meanwhile, Dyne managed to damage the main cannon. That will help

>now what the hell is Bull Frog doing
"The part connecting ALL THAT? YOU, STUPID SHIT!"
>A secondary engine? Brace for impact!
"There are OTHER WORLDS OUT THERE! AND YOU WILL NOT EVER SEE THEM!"

>And then the firing range doors opened
>It's Sam in the Vlad Prototype!
"Missed me yet?"

>>79749693
>Exactly. Except Sam is the one who needs the electricity now

>They do listen to Mho, thankfully. he's kind of like Sam's long time right hand man
"Nope, got the parts all here with uh, that other plan that I don't need anymore."
>Meaning, they can get to work immediately

>Mho can handle shocks, and also give his own
"INDEED. We had BURGERS."
>Yeah
>Sam is thinking it, before making a decision
"You know what, never too late for a late Thanksgiving. Just don't wait for me. Also make preparations for Christmas just in case!"
>And also...
"Yeah. Gotta tell Taner that I am alright though uh, still can't leave home. Same for Chadley."
>And also his family, but I never really fleshed out that part

>It seems like that song might've been written for her then, as this applied in more than a few ways. To this day there's still debate over just how literal her nickname of Man-eater actually is
>Her eyes scanned him over quickly as he removed his jacket- of course it made sense his jacket would've hidden it, it wasn't too surprising, but it was still a feast for the eyes nonetheless
>Curiosity began to creep in, replacing her teasing temptress attitude almost as soon as his embarrassment waned
>It seemed almost perfectly in sync, the less red he was, the less smug her smile appeared to be
"Apache..."
>Sekhmet removed both of her gloves in order to take both of his hands into hers
"You do realize I'm not a good person, right? You might be a super soldier, but I was the one they needed to dispatch super soldiers for in the first place. The only thing setting me apart from one of those WANTED is the ability to reason, and the wisdom of time and experience."
>She squeezed that steel grip of his with her own, her hands surprisingly soft considering what she did for a living
"I don't mind letting you in, but you might not like what you see. That's what I meant."
>She shook her head, smiling to herself as she looked over Maria and Fei in a "Can you believe this guy? Making a scene like this?" ... Even though at least half of that was her fault
>Sekhmet will then take her hands back- unless he holds fast to keep her in place
"Anyway... We should probably save the rest for later. Making a scene here."
>She wasn't embarrassed in the same way he was earlier, this was more a "okay we're done with the cute formalities, time to get serious, but not here" type deal

>True, they'll need a new power source... Maybe he could borrow crystals from Jerome and his gang

>Well that's good, big guy's earned all the trust
"Alright good, let's get to work then."
>Meaning, mostly Kauket acting as Sam's hands to handle the tools and such

>Very true
"Hell of a thanksgiving dinner."
>Indeed
"Hmmm, right. With a bit of luck you'll have your own form just in time for Christmas. Somehow I think that'll require a miracle, though. A Christmas miracle."
>They really should've done this earlier in the year, when there weren't so many holidays in a row
"Sure thing. Thankfully once you can use the PDA, that should solve most of your communication problems."
>Oh. Fair enough

Once or twice. Really sucks since once it happens you just gotta wait until you get KOed or swap out

>>79746550
Well if it turns out I can't get them that way I'll figure something out

>>79747039
I'm not sure how ghosts come about other than that someone dies, but if being abnormal is a requirement to become a ghost, then that would certainly explain, well, a lot. And yes, I'm sure becoming a ghost helped make him even stranger.

Probably something like that. I certainly don't hang out around them, I'd be caught in an instant knowing how rare I am to humans. But maybe it's better for Oddish and other common pokemon since it's not as likely a trainer will want to catch them.

Are you sure magic wouldn't just reject an attempt to apply rigid scientific principles because it's magic?

>Chadley was heard swearing and fighting off the T-99 Gorilla...
>ENTERING THE RANGE
>THUNDER PUNCH rang true!
>5
>It plinked off again, but the electricity prevented Bull Frog from dismounting!
>The Bull Tank fired its Main Cannon!
>2...
>But the parts were damaged, and it couldn't fire!
"Well, that's annoying."
>Bull Frog used the secondary engine function 'Medica'!
>Repairs started around the entirety of the Bull Tank!
>The Main Cannon was repaired!
>The Bull Tank fired the missile launcher, the "Joker Flush"!
>4
>Fio rushed forward, electricity thrumming from her fingertips. She was in her Pokemon form, a golden-furred Raichu! One by one she shot each missile out of the air.
"Aw, who the hell are you!?"
>Fio wiped her nose.
"I"m Fio! And you're about to find out what happens when you mess with my big brother!"
>A laugh from Bull Frog.
"Alright, now *this* is a riot."
>A little cheer from him was all Sam got when he entered.
"Glad you could make it. Sorry about the trash."
>There was Kyrie, still. Dyne had put her in a safer spot, but it didn't change the fact that... she had breathed her last.
>The Bull Tank revved again.
"Well, now I at least get a tank battle out of all of this. You *really* raised an annoying Electivire."
>Bull Frog's tone changed.
"Big man doesn't understand that the world like yours, and the world like mine aren't all that different. Yesterday we were headed for a downward spiral, and it's only a matter of time before your world does the same. There ain't anything good to save there, nothing good to save here. Wastin' your time with all this, but hey, hasn't stopped people before!"
>A laugh.
"Didn't stop me, either. And that's why I was such a damn fool back then. Not now! Now's the time where people who've got what they have... will take what they want!"
>The Bull Tank's engine roared to life!
>All stats were raised sharply!

>Oh, I use 3WolfMondAI-SDG: https://huggingface.co/Xeno443/3wolfMondAI-SDG
>...
>Apache almost found his heart beating faster at that smile of hers. It held less of that lustful teasing and more of a cute flair that had him feeling warm.
"I wasn't a good person either, Sekhmet."
>A confession, one that made him reminisce.
"When I started out as a hired gun, I was a thug. A bouncer. A protector for interests of whoever had the biggest power at the time. Even when I earned my nickname of 'Iron Man' that's who I was. Just a glorified bouncer."
>A weak smile spread across his lips, remembering the times.
"When I went to Mado, it was a way of coming to grips with that. I knew the Grapplers were coming, but when I heard that Ted Broiler might've come, I knew I should at least die protecting those that needed to be protected."
>He looked back up at her.
"But I didn't. And from that day forward I've been with Fei and Maria. What I'm saying is, Sekhmet is that... it's never too late to change who you are. You might've done that in the past, but letting that define who you are now is only going to make you hurt more."
>His spirit was more resolute than ever and he felt a surge of adrenaline hit him.
"No one has to like everything they see, either. No matter which way you look at it, a cactus is a cactus, but the flower is still a flower. And I see that flower. So, try me."
>A wink.
"You'll find I'm a lot stronger than you think."
>Maria let out a laugh.
>Fei nudged her elbow, giving a kind of "Get a load of this guy, huh" gesture.
>Before he let go of her hands, he gave them one last squeeze, as if desperate to feel her touch more. Then, he let them go, understanding their situation.
"Of course."
>Indeed. The gloves were off. Apache no longer looked trouble at all, and instead kept looking at her with a kind of infatuation.
>Fei shrugged and took a bite of Apache's desert, which had just come.
>Apache gave him a glare while Maria let out another laugh.

>>79749703
>That seems to make the most sense to me, in stasis it doesn't get colder or warmer, so if you pit an ice cream cone in it'll stay cold, but if you put a melted one in, it won't re-freeze or get any colder than it is
>Great for a trainer's life, not so great for at home when things need be re-cooled all the time
>Lightspeed nods as if she's just given him the wisdom of the ages, even though Star and Taner have for sure both told him similar before
"Maybe we can -race- later!"
>It is the second-worst reaction to Fea, the first being PB who was moments away from trying to kill the Sylveon after his first sentence
>It's part of the reason that Fea has actually been a little less lewd than normal with his comments, that and the kids, though for him "less lewd" still leaves a lot of room...

>Star is impressed by the observation skills, but it makes sense from a thief
"Yes."
>She says, not elaborating more on that, though Taner's flush might be elaborating on it's own
>Taner replies to that second thing as he starts bringing the plate over-- three fish burgers to start
"We are! A little larger than planned, but working together, we make it work for all of us, and it means we have more skills than most groups!"
>Friendship is power
"Oh, uh, I started with three, but let me know if you need more."
>He says, as he sets the burgers down in front of her
>The others don't seem that hungry-- this is normally their sleep time, not even breakfast
>Star stands still as she's sized up, tilting her head
>Of course, that's going the other way around, too
>The Eevee blinks at that question
>Taner says
"Wow, how did she know?"
>Star smiles with a small headshake
"I am your starter and yet the only Eevee on the team who hasn't evolved. And yet I clearly participate in battle. That I lack the option is a natural conclusion."
>She then looks at Eldena again
"That is not to downplay how observant said conclusion is. It is correct. I notice you do not sound very surprised."

>>79747722
(thx! This was the second best one, but I liked the one I posted first best)
>These two groups have certainly gotten to know each other in a lot more depth over this meal
>That is perhaps not too unexpected, one thing it seems both they and Taner have in common is forming connections to others quickly, it is perhaps more impressive that Star is so trusting of them so fast, but they just have a sincerity about them that makes it clear to her that, much like Taner who she so adores, they keep who they are out in the open, it's impossible to attribute duplicitousness to them
>Which is why she's responded in kind (Taner would have regardless lol)
>Once again a bit more sober, Taner says, softly
"It sounds like that day as a turning point. I can't say we haven't had our own..."
>He looks around, this time not at Star, but at the others, who meet his eyes in understanding; they know exactly what he's talking about
"But here we are. And here you are!"
>Star seems to be considering
<I wonder if Sekhmet might know a few Pokemon who would be willing to help? For as many in our world who'd want to avoid a more dangerous world? I am quite certain there are just as many who would jump at a chance to enter a world where not only can their power make a large difference, but they can also grow in power and be more sufficiently equipped to exercise it.>
>To some Pokemon, that might be the dream, in fact
"Maybe, with some of the reward money, we should get you guys a trainer backpack or two as well as the Pokedex, and stuff it with good food for you to take back as well! It, uh, may not help, like, tactically, but it'd be good for morale! I, uh. Honestly, as expensive as that would be, I don't know if it'd even use enough of the rewards to make a difference..."
>Star smirks a bit
<I do not think we have yet gotten to a point where the economy will be affected. But if there are enough rewards like that given out I could see it having an effect.>

They seem to also hatch from eggs sometimes? And sometimes plushies or something become certain ghosts. So, uh. There's a lot of weird ways to become a ghost. But Beryl has said pretty often that normal people and Pokemon don't become ghosts frequently, even if they have a strong will to stay on the mortal plane. And yes, I think if someone is slightly weird before becoming a ghost, being a ghost, for some reason, makes all that much more... part of them? Or perhaps being a ghost is like being drunk all the time, with no inhibitions.
But, I also know ghosts of which none of that is true, so. Yeah.

That's true. Perhaps that's why some Pokemon are considered rare: they avoid the routes because they are considered rare, which means they end up being considered rare, which means they avoid the routes even more, and, uh, so on.

Star says that if it did that, then we could use the experimental method to find a new experimental method that applies to magic. She's pretty confident in science.

I hadn't realized there were so many ways to create ghosts. That would help explain why they're all so unpredictable and different from each other. It could be that's true for some ghosts and the complete opposite for others.

Maybe. I can't say I've run into too many other Snivy in my time, so perhaps we really are rare. Or at the very least rather solitary.

I'll wish her luck with her efforts. I think meddling with a system like magic is an easy way to get burned, personally.

>Wha-et got a fur trim (>pic related)!

I followed TANNER’S advice and went to get my FUR trimmed at the League’s school it was FREE and in FREEDOM¡
There were some dumb hummies between them I even bit a couple to SHOW superiority and who is boss¡ They might’ve failed and sentenced to never be trainers again — a JUST punishment for calling me FAT.
After the third pair, things went more smoothly they even bathed me¡ The hummies caught my charm and were giggling when everything ended, I’m quite the Casanova¡
Unfortunately, they were AMATEURS as I still feel some patches of fur here and there, but it was FREEE. And they say nothing is free in this life....

I have noticed more hummie and mons staring, fairy magic lets me know when someone is looking at MEE

>>79743365 (THUNDERFISTS)
They are NASTY NASTY bugs, and they are too small¡ Nothing good can be that small.

>>79744547 (Doro)
But the Joltiks might be COLD Doro, bring them inside.

Whatever, if everyone is in the dungeon the NOE ONE is in the dungeon... I’m throwing EVERYONE.

Well it might not be THE drain kiss, but I’m sure a KISS in the middle of a battle is bound to cause some POSTIVIE effect. You could make the very first DARK-kiss, we can call it SUCC
You lose DORO, hope you are happy when PHOXY burns your mane by “accident”

>>79747047(Tanner)
That’s why as it grows you GET stronger¡ improves those NECK muscles. Stop being a WHIMP¡ I’m sure my BOWTIE is bigger just like everything else...
What dumb Eevee trainer are you TANNER¿ you could sleep ON a mon while cuddling another one, I thought you had all the flavors for a reason¡

Maybe but there hasn’t been a hibernating declaration in a while, I shall keep getting ready for there is one.
That’s what I tell her before asking for a tenth refill¡ But the GRUMPY bitch won’t pony up.

LMAO so they do have them throwing stuff all day. So funny, but at least they were useful for ONCE

Uh, a free trimming and they were giggling by the end? And now you're getting a bunch of stares?
Wha-et I think maybe you ought to check what it looks like, take a picture to be sure?

If they're cold they can hide in my mane, not my mouth!

You're gonna need a really big dungeon if you plan to imprison literally everyone

All it'll do is momentarily confuse them when nothing happens and they get a free hit on me! Also no we're not calling it succ! Bad!!
Oh I'll be avoiding those flames as much as I can! Also who says I'll lose? I'll still be able to use Z-moves, doing lewd dances is not a requirement and never was!

Nasty Doro I’d rather they PERISH in the cold.

Doro that’s what EARTH is¡ you are in Arceus’ dungeon, and I’m the WARDEEEN¡

Sounds as useful as splash, not ALL the moves have to be good, think of this as a HANDICAP of sorts, in case you wanna practice with a lesser mon. How would you call it¿
Brave Doro’s last words, I call dibs on your stuff.

You do? I mean I do too, but I'm pretty sure it's because of this form of mine. That's not it I'm just saying I think you got pranked.

I'm not gonna let pokemon freeze to death!

I think Deoxys escaped, you should go catch him

Why would I handicap myself by kissing random mons though? Do you think I'd do that? I don't know, sneaky kiss or something?
Nope, it's for Tempest and she'll definitely curse you if you steal it.

Yeah, and I don't even think that's an exhaustive list of all the ways it can happen!
Also, how much memory one has of their former life before becoming a ghost seems to vary pretty widely. I know some who seem to have a perfect memory of their life before, some who have none at all, and Beryl seems to fall right in the middle there but more on the side of having a pretty good memory of who he used to be. Star and I were gifted a book all about ghosts which she read completely, and yet she says it didn't really give her anything to add here.

Well, if leadership is an inherent trait in many Snivy, that means many of them would have probably found a group of Pokemon to lead and perhaps that means wandering some distance from where they were born? I know that some Pokemon, like Treeko, are also considered rare, but then sometimes there's like, a massive group of them in one place who have just stuck together.

I'll note that she hasn't actually meddled with a system like magic, and she's certainly one for tons of precautions. If we did meddle with anything, it'd probably be the translation potions, she'd love to be able to mass produce those, for more than one reason. But there's also the issue of angering large groups of ghosts, which is another reason why Star says she'd probably leave magic research to someone more suited for it as there's plenty of other things that haven't got enough scientific attention yet.

(I thought so too :) )
(After hearing even just parts of the Sekhmet and Apache conversation, Star is now considering ways of planning things that will smoothly allow Apache and Sekhmet some alone time together...)

>That's a very sobering story indeed
>Even hearing it second hand about a world he has no part in, Taner finds that he's more than a bit angry, hearing about people roasted alive or taken for experiments hits decently close to exactly what he was talking about that he needed help to deal with moving on from, with the very words he just gave before this, all that shows on his face-- he's very easy to read
>And now he is more than on board with Star's plan to send a minor army
>Star nods
<Depending on how long we can keep the portal open after reducing the WANTEDs coming through it? I suspect finding Pokemon who would enjoy the idea will be easier than one might suspect.>
>There are a lot of Pokemon out there who are fundamentally, as a part of their nature, ready for ANY battle as long as it tests their strength, even if said battle may be lethal, especially if there's a good cause behind it, and Star has ideas on where to look for Pokemon like those
>Taner smiles again, what a whirlwind of emotion, but how can he not when seeing their reaction at the idea of getting equipped?
"Yeah, of course! I don't even know where we'd be if you guys didn't show up when you did, plus anything I can do that will actually help you guys in your world-- I'd want to do that no matter what! It's just thanks to those, uh, really quite amazing rewards, that I have an easy way to do that! Even back when someone gave me space gold from another universe I don't think I've ever had seen many digits of pokedollars..."
>...No wonder he's so accepting of the idea of other worlds, it seems he's almost been desensitized to how remarkable that is
>>
>>79767234
(If Taner had any idea that was ended up happening to Wha-et, he'd be a little embarrassed he recommended that, but then, no way his instructors would have allowed such tomfoolery lol)
(Also nice job with the perspective here, it's both cute and sexy)
(Does Wha-et have a pink shadow? Or wait, is that his fur?)

I'm glad it worked out, though I feel sorry for the trainers-in-training that you bit at! Thankfully I guess my trainer school had a, um, filter or something for Pokemon with good temperaments, because none of them ever bit at us.

I think my neck muscles are fine. I'm sure my shoulder muscles are actually above average, considering! No need to give myself a cramp, though!
All the flavors? Can't say I'm a fan of that phrasing, but, uh, no, the reason they evolved into different eeveelutions was because I mentioned, when we were having a discussion about who would evolve into what, that strategically, if we wanted to give ourselves the best advantage in battle as we could have, that'd be the best way. But I did also mention that they didn't have to! If we ended up with like 8 Umbreon I'd have made it work somehow. Thankfully though, nobody was really set on an Eeveelution that one of the others preferred.
Do you capitalize "Eeveelution?" I've never figured that out. Everyone seems to do it differently. Anyway!

Yeah, I don't think there's been one in my lifetime. Or, the lifetime of my parents. Or their parents.
Somehow I get the feeling that it's a bit different when you say it... or perhaps they are just worried about keeping said job!

Not all day, but that is a class, about an hour three days a week.

>Mho, in the confusion, managed to get Fio to safety!
>Bull Frog huffed, adjusting his helmet.
"Man. Fucking thing. Took /ages/ to build that, and here you are, getting upset over animals, Sam!"
>He shook his head.
"Swear. It's people like you who made the world go to shit in the first place with all your fake caring. You'd bend over back to protect some kind of child and then in the same breath you'd shit on those who protected you at the drop of a hat!"
>Bull Frog hunched over, taking a kind of linebacker's stance.
"Oh, and if you think you're at an advantage because I'm not in a tank anymore... I got news for you."

I didn't realize he was that prideful, I guess if Wha-et's any indication that's a common thing for all Sylveon. And also yes it's sneaky, but it's like a white lie of sneakiness if that makes sense.

>>79785894 (Clover)
It's strange that something can keep someone around as a ghost and they can simultaneously forget what it was. Maybe one day those mysteries will be solved, but then again...

It could be, but I think there are at least a few who are just full of themselves without knowing how to apply it properly. Maybe more suited to being tyrants than proper leaders. A huge group of Snivy would be an interesting thing to see, just to know how it's possible.

That's probably a smart way to go about it. Wait, translation potion? Does that do what I think it does? That would be a very great thing to mass produce.
It would be safest to leave it to someone else, yes.

"Bye-bye, gear bo~y."

>No SP damage was dealt!
>However...
>The Reaper Cannon was damaged!
>The Orochi's Maw was damaged!
>Repairs needed to be conducted, otherwise they wouldn't be as effective. Another hit like that would've disabled them entirely!
"Convincing? Why the hell would I need to convince you? Like you'd believe a single thing I say, 'hero'! Your head's so far into your own self-righteous notion of 'saving the world' that it'd look better as an outhouse!"

>Medical supplies to Fio stabilized her condition, she was still very, very wounded.

I mean, you've seen the way he battles. I don't know if the pride is ingrained in him being a Sylveon, or him being told he's literally the best for like a good portion of his life.
That's what I feel too, it's harmless sneakiness!

>>79788947 (Clover)
I agree. That's always been hard for me to understand, but then, I know a few ghosts like that, who clearly have a strong will to live. But the ones who want vengeance and stay alive for that reason, but then forget who they want revenge on in the first place... what must that be like? Maybe that's another reason some ghosts go a bit, uh, loopy.
If any mysteries are going to remain unsolved until the end of time, I think it'll be ghost mysteries.

Probably so. You've the only Snivy I've ever talked to at length and you seem cool, but if even you say that some others are like that, then I suppose there's no denying it.

Yes, the translation potion does exactly what you think, for a limited amount of time based on the amount one has, and yeah, that's exactly why I'd love to be able to mass produce it, or not even me, if anyone could mass produce that, I'd be happy.
But yeah, ghosts may not have patent law but they tend to defend their secrets in, uh, more aggressive ways than I want to deal with.

They must not forget whatever it was driving them subconsciously. Or at least that's the only explanation I can think of.

It's not really a surprise I'm saying it. I promise every Snivy believes they're exceptional compared to the rest. Snivy in general are great, but there's no Snivy like us, or so we think.

Well, perhaps it's because the conflict that arises from the lack of communication means more clients for their magic.
Or maybe they just want to keep their secrets. But yes, I'm sure they've got some terrible things in store for anyone who tries to leak their methods.

>>79821320
Oh heya Kong, nice to see you again!
Phoxy? She's around, somewhere nearby in Kalos I bet. Me, her and Taner are all there right now

Of course! I learned it as a Zorua and I've kept doing it ever since!
No no, definitely not! I only plant whatever I pick not too far from the plant I got it from, I promise! Now if those berry bushes were already invasive, I uh, don't exactly know the per-region lists by heart...

Good. That’s a good mom n dad right there. Important to teach about managing your surroundings without depleting everything. Anyway seems to me you could do with a list. I’ll send you a pamphlet of common invasive species per region. Feel free to strip those bushes bare when you find them. Anything else going on?

Honestly, that might be true, I know Kauket was handing out curses all over on Halloween. Actually my old curse wore off and I was a guy again for a while, but then Kauket cursed me back again.

Actually I taught myself when I learned to read, I got curious and looked up berry bushes and learned all about it.
Oh thanks, actually if I can take all the berries that's all the more reason to memorize them now that I've got a trainer backpack.
Well let's see, the ZA Royale has been going on in Lumiose, me and Taner were doing really well there. Besides that, not too much. Feels like it's been kinda quiet otherwise. Christmas is coming up though and I should really pick out presents for everyone soon.

Anyway gonna be slow for a bit here!

>>79823601
Curses like candy huh? Remind me to stay the hell away from your holiday socials. If she does to me what she did to you my spine would snap in half

How’s you learn to read so young? Most wilds I know of never bothered since it isn’t relevant most of the time. Not that it’s a bad thing mind you.

Were? As in past tense? So what’s you end up placing then? And things are generally quiet around the holidays anyway, so…
Christmas huh? I should do something for that too probably. Anyway, same with me. I’ll be back on later most likely.

Yeah, she had them all mixed together and was throwing them out at random. I consider myself lucky I just got this body again instead of... turning into an Oddish or something. Also I think the curse came with a strong back or something, my center of gravity is totally thrown off but I'm holding up pretty well otherwise.

I stole a pokegear from a trainer when I was bored and ended up watching tons of random videos with subtitles when there wasn't much else to do. From there I started reading up on tons of stuff when I realized how much stuff I could learn that I didn't know before.

Rank J for me, I did take a few breaks here and there, I bet if I kept at it the whole time I'd have made it way higher. If they make that Royale an annual thing I may come back to Kalos now and then to participate.
Yeah I have a bad habit of letting holidays sneak up on me and then I'm scrambling to prepare for it.

Seems risky and fucking stupid. Tell her to check her shit before she accidentally manages to turn you into a lab accident because she salted her ions or some fuckness like that. Magics fucking stupid and weird.

Theft huh? What drew you to it? Shiny buttons? Depending on the model it might honestly be something worth a few poke. Or maybe not. Dexter ain’t even on most of these new dexes any more. Poor fucks out of a job.

J? Is that good or bad? I don’t follow the pro scene so I really have no idea what constitutes something decent. Kalis is decent enough but too urban for my liking. Sticking wild zones in the middle of a city seems fucking stupid. I wonder how many grannies have gotten mauled by wild pokes

Maaaaybe. I'd say she liked my costume.

>>79831981
I did but I don't think she cares that much, Kauket's not the easiest ghost to convince.

I dunno they were standing there staring at it for a while so I figured I'd snatch it and find out, I think. It's kind of an older one but it's high end for the time, I think. The talking pokedex thing? I don't think it has that, just a regular one.

It goes from Z to A at the top, so I was a little past the middle. I know I could've gotten higher, everyone else in that rank were still pretty easy. Z-A Royale's a new thing they're doing to promote them rebuilding Lumiose, same with the wild zones and... yeah they're dumb. I feel like there has to be some other reason they exist that they're not telling people because it's so obviously dumb too.

I never paid much attention beyond whether it works or not. But I did get the battery replaced, it was starting to die pretty fast when I did. Before then I had to bribe electric types with berries to get it charged. Far as I'm aware, no ground up pokemon of any kind!
Quasartico Inc. are the ones who set the whole thing up, including the remodel and the wild zones, so it's all on them. Well they said it was about living together with pokemon, but like... keeping them in separate pinned off areas is kinda the opposite of that.

I am shocked you managed not to break it. Introducing electrical currents to electronics, based on my admittedly limited knowledge, is a bad fucking idea. But then again you’re obscenely lucky.

So they want people and Pokémon to live together by segregating them? In an urban non wild setting? This reeks of dipshit CEO nepo baby logic

Honestly so am I, but it still works just fine! Older stuff is just built to last I guess. I think they added the feature so that any trainer with an electric type pokemon would actually charge their pokegear instead of destroying it. That or I am really that lucky.

Yeah it seems that way. Which is why I feel like there's gotta be another reason, but then again maybe they really are just that dumb.

>It's a lot of focused curiosity, it seems like Taner is the one who picks up quickest that it makes her uneasy and he distracts himself for a moment by putting up his portable stove, but he's listening intently to Star's translation even so
>Star highly suspects there are other Eevee as well, though now she's updated; previously she weighted her understanding in it being exclusive to Eevee, but now that hypothesis has been falsified
>New hypothesis: this is something much like the "Alpha Pokemon" phenomenon, complete with variance in how rare it is in certain points in time... meaning it's possible it may start being less rare at some point
>(The canon title of "partner Pokemon" for the phenomenon is probably not going to be the Pokeverse title lol)
>With this update, Star suspects that all Pokemon may be susceptible, she'd also theorize that it can happen to any type of Pokemon... it is simply the wild, working on the principles of natural selection, does NOT select for Pokemon who learn in odd ways, especially ones that take take longer to gain power and require more battle experience to use it, unless they have another advantage of some kind... like humans who can bring out those abilities

"I did not figure out how to change eye color before I ceased experimenting."
>Taner adds
"That's really cool!"
>Star nods
"It is impressive."
>Then, there is a slight pause and then a quick glance exchanged between Star and Taner when Eldena mentions that she does, in fact, have a trainer
>Taner seems a little surprised, whereas Star is giving him a look that isn't quite "I told you so" but is in that same conceptual area
>However, the current conversation topic is interesting enough to them that they simply continue on it, Taner adding
"Star gets a tiny bit bigger too each time! At first we thought we were imagining it, but after like, 8 times, it's a lot more noticeable..."
>On his shoulder, in particular, though it probably makes... other things easier
>Fair is fair, Star considers the question for a moment before replying
"While after reading about the 'unstable DNA' that my kind are noted for I guessed that it was my DNA I was changing. But I do not know that for a fact. What I do know is that with concentration I can make changes to something fundamental to myself. But I am working blind, I can feel a change is made but can not tell what that change is unless there is some way for me to note the change. Such as a visible change in fur color."
>With that, Star changes her fur color to silver!
"It has not turned out to be very useful for the most part. Though I can make specific markings in my fur to track things without a pen or paper if the situation warrants it."

Hello! I feel like I'll be long gone by the time you see this reply. I understand being very busy, though!

>>79822930
He is, for sure. Especially when he knows Prenne is watching. But I feel like that's why I'll have to get Prenne to say it's cute first!

>>79822930 (Clover)
I can't think of any better one, so right now, that's what I think too!

Ah. Well, I've not met enough Snivy to know if they all are or not. I've seen some of the Snivy line in battle, though, and they DO seem like they put their all into training once they've decided that's what they want, I've never met one who wasn't battling with great confidence.
Though, the same can be said about a lot of three-stagers, I suppose.

Perhaps, though I think it's probably more like a "once we get someone hooked on this we want to be the only place they can get it from" type thing. I know Sharon gets them in bulk and I haven't asked what she's paying for that but I don't know if it's something a non-ghost trainer could afford.
Yes. Reading about Beryl's hexes makes me feel that for sure.

>>79823063
>>79823150
On the berry thing, I'll add that I do like Doro does, and a lot of trainers do too. I guess it only takes one idiot to plant something from another region for it to spread... though it may be a lost cause at this point. I mean, do you know any region that doesn't have the classics, a region with no Oran or Peacha or something? I think they may all have all the berries at this point.
If not though, I suspect the League has someone to deal with that. Like, in Kalos, they have a guy who goes around and collects Pokeballs and then hangs around at the Pokemon Center and gives them to people based on some sort of system they have to know who lost it. That's... a lot of money going into paying those guys for that.
>>
>>79828915
I know you're not expecting a real answer to this, least of all from me, but, I can give you one. I'd scale it a bit differently than people though...

Is the Pokemon species in question less smart or around the intelligence of an animal? Morally, it's edible, then.

Is it as smart as a human? Then it's basically like asking if an alien is edible.
Would you eat a Klingon?
I'd say so no, while they may not be humans so it isn't cannibalism, exactly, both Klingons and human-level-intelligent Pokemon are going to be the most edible, because you have to do a murder to eat them.

If it's somewhere in between somehow, things get murky, but I think most fall into one of those two categories easily enough.

Personally, though, even with the Pokemon in the first category, I'd say good old animal meat always tastes better anyway. And it's most often cheaper.

Kong reminds me of a Klingon sometimes. I don't mean that as a bad thing, though!

>>79833494
>The Nicklit may not be there, it's schrodinger's Nickit right now
>True
"Uh, well, you can get settled in, in the meantime?"
>Taner says, and then is reassured by Blazy, but then Phoxy says that, which does seem to get Taner legitimately worried
"Please be nice to my parents, and don't say anything weird about me, I'm trusting you Phoxy. You know how you feel about weirdness, you should get along with them, I think they'd feel the same way. That's why there won't be any weirdness here today, or any discussion of it even!"
>Slight panic, now calming down
"Uh, anyway, come on in!"
>There's a welcome mat, fireplace going, a TV with some of the vees playing a video game on it, and a staircase going up, as well as a couch, a window, and an extra long ottoman
>>
>>79837852
we both know there's a good chance they'd like that too though

>>79838609
That's a good idea. See now you're thinking like a Dark type!

As for the berries I can lend you the pamphlet Kong's sending me. I'm gonna learn it because then I'll know which berry bushes I can pick clean

>>79838609 (Clover)
All the Snivy I've known were extremely confident. I suppose that's also true, from the few other three-stagers I've met.

That could be just as true, they certainly have that sort of attitude...
I wouldn't want to be on his bad side, having experienced what happens when his deals actually go well.

>The Orrean government would not be pleased to learn that, due to a lack of properly sized habitat, they have taken it upon themselves to dig an intricate cave system in Sam's backyard.

>Yes, that does seem to be a possibility. There are variants for a lot of other things, so why not this too?
>(If it is, Taner and Star would probably yet again find themselves thinking whoever got to name it probably didn't think about it for more than 2 seconds lol)
>There seems to be a few common factors, such as the fact that they rely heavily on humans to "activate" this gene, so to speak
>And also that this needs to be unlocked early on, while they're still actively learning tons of moves, perhaps while they're still the most malleable in terms of evolution and growth?
>So far, it seems to have affected Pokemon who had yet another evolution to reach, but haven't yet, and likely never will
>Actually, Eldena hasn't specified whether or not she can evolve, but the fact that she guessed Star couldn't before bringing up the strange moves is a good indication that she's all but already confirmed this

"Hey, being able to mark your fur sounds pretty handy. Good way to counter doppelgangers too, like Ditto or Zorua."

But Tanner, they can always be BIGGER, and everyone likes BIG muscles it shows you are STRONG and can like DEFEND others.
You have all the flavors of eevee and ONLY cuddle with the DEFAULT vainilla one¿ I’m 100% sure most hummies would cuddle all the eevees, each night one different each night, or even more than one at the same time¡
You are quite lucky there were no duplicates, but you could always like... y’know... swap them for a better fit.
BIG letters are requires for IMPORTANT things¡ like sometimes EEVEE.

Two more weeks Tanner, you never know when the great hibernating might happen....
It IS exactly how I say it, I know my rights and if it says UNLIMITED it means INFINITE. She is only against me and ONLY me¡

Lemme tell you a story
Once upon a time there was an island with lots of native berries and bugs and birds and so on. Then some asshole from Kanto comes along and plants some Oran berries because he wants to eat them.
The Oran berries proceed to outcompete all the native berries on the island so they die out. The bugs which eat the berries then die out because they were specialized to only eat the berries because that was all that was on the island. Then without the bugs the birds die out.
Now the island is fucking covered in Oran bushes and absolutely fucking nothing else. Over thirty species extinct, and it could have been easily avoided by some asshole deciding NOT to plant his stupid FUCKING bushes
Bottom line, people need to be more proactive about preventing this shit.

I still refuse to believe that is the entirety of your story.

Alright will do

Okay let's see... the first time, Tempest gave me a potion without telling me what it did, and I ended up with that body for a while until it eventually wore off.
The second time, you remember when Crimson got cursed with his female body? Well last year on halloween Kauket got drunk and swapped the curse over to me, and I ended up with it a second time, lasted a while until Beryl figured out a way to reverse the curse.
And then most recently, once again Kauket cursed me a little before halloween, so that makes three times I've ended up this way because of a ghost type.

>>79838766
I feel like I'm thinking like a fairy type too, because I can see Cottonball doing something similar, but sure, that works too!

Oh, that sounds good. So you are saying if we find one that's not supposed to be there, we pick it clean and, uh, then what? Get rid of it? If other trainers saw us doing that, we may end up needing to explain ourselves, I suspect. Not that I think it isn't a good idea, just, uh, gives me a little social anxiety thinking about it.

>>79852146
Don't they have machines for peeling potatoes at this point? If not, they should have one!

Wow, that's pretty awful. None of the birds or anything could move to a different place? Even so, wow. Well, while I can't control what other trainers do, Doro is going to lend me the pamphlet you are giving him so I'll at least know what doesn't belong where and can, uh, see if I can take care of the problem before it becomes THAT level of problem.
Though again, if I were to bet, I'd bet money that the League has someone who's job it is to check what berry bushes are growing and prevent exactly things like that story from happening anywhere else.

Star says-- and wants me to mention that she doesn't actually think this, but she's interested in your take on it-- that the devil's advocate response to that story would be that if it wasn't caused by a human it'd simply be another form of natural selection at work. So if a migratory bird happened to accidently bring an Oran berry seed there instead of a trainer, would it have been right, given the opportunity, to come in and stop them from growing before all the rest of that happened? Or would it be considered better to leave nature to take it's course?
Again, Star wants me to say that she's more interested in what your response is in this case than anything else and is asking because she "finds that can not predict it which makes it more interesting."

Well, I've been reading your conversations with others, and you can't blame me for having just a little skepticism? I mean, whatever has happened, it clearly doesn't make an important difference, because you are still here, but, uh. I once recall Dart calling Star "hasty" but, um, even Star hasn't forfeited her mortal body quite yet. Not saying that you did. Just saying that every post from Kauket and you that I've read in the last few months seems to imply something, uh, along similar lines to that, without outright stating it. Maybe I'm just reading too much into things, I'll admit that's something I do.

(But is Zapman also posting pictures of the ZPDA, because Taner would point that out too if that's canon lol)

You are making me feel MORE sorry for them that way! Everyone has to start somewhere!

I do like muscles but I like it when they are, maybe more "toned" than just pure "big?" Like, I've seen a man whose muscles were so big, you could see the veins, and honestly as cool of a dude as that guy was, that was a bit freaky. But then, Star has muscles that you can only really see when she's doing something that uses them, but then, the way she moves, the way she jumps in the air and then lands and you can see her dodging attacks and one can see her muscles working under her fur during all of that, the way she can MOVE when she wants to during battle, the grace and power behind it, it's
Um
Anyway, toned beats big in my mind, is what I'm saying. And what matters most is how they are sued.

I mean, sometimes we do have a cuddle pile with everyone there, often when we sleep outside in Cottonball's cotton, for example. So there's that. But Star's always with me.
I'd never swap family, nobody can ever be a better fit for the team than a friend!

That's true, I'd never know when it might happen.
Well, I have a feeling that nobody gets infinite ice. Though maybe people like you are the reason the ice cream machine never works. Considering me to be squinting at you intently right now.

Everyone can throw things, but it takes practice to throw things well!

"It does! If my house was portable like a tent, I'd take it everywhere!"
>Star makes a small laughing sound because that was a ridiculous thing to say even by Taner standards

>>79838766 (Clover)
Yup. I mean, that can apply to a lot of Pokemon, really, but a few more often than others.

That said, they can't be that hard for them to make, because at least some groups of ghosts just give the potions away for free when it comes time to negotiate with humans, though only for that.
Yeah, and from what I've seen, many of his other hexes are, um, in the "permanently life-altering/crippling" category, even when he thinks nothing of them, which makes it more frightening because I feel like he'd be willing to use them for minor slights.
And other ghosts have even LESS moral compunctions than Beryl a lot of the time. Somehow.

That's good then, if enough are giving it away so freely it'd be quite hard to pretend they're difficult to make for a better deal

Why not both Tanner¿ You can have well defined and BIG muscles, you don’t HAVE to settle for less. What a SIMP, Star doesn’t look that different from other eevees¡ you are just Super biased, and brainrotten to the CORE. You shouldn’t be distracted looking at that during fights, what a BAD trainer.

A big cuddle pile... your GREED sickens me
But you could make friends with the new mon, you are just making excuses for the USELESS weight.

You are just jealous of those blessed¡ Should’ve gotten a better type with a nice legendary.... Or maybe your huuuu current form is Yveltal’s blessing... It does a good work at huuuu draining life... yeah that fits.
You WOULDN’T go back, you would improve¡ tons of mons go from biped to quad, is the newest TREND. Don’t be left behind.
You must be crazy or you wouldn’t be here.

It sounds worse every time you talk about it!

I told you why not both, I've seen what happens when muscles get too big, it looks... wrong. Whereas well-defined and just-right sized ones look pretty. And Star does in fact look different from other Eevee's, she's trained hard and gotten herself in peak condition! And she's helped me get in, uh, probably not peak, but at least a lot better condition than I was! And as long as we win said fights then it's not a distraction and I'm a good trainer! Next time we meet, you can have a battle with her, if you like.

I've given you two answers to this questions and both of them have met with disapproval, I've discovered there's no winning in this one! Except, I'm already winning. Because you can't be anything but winning when you have a cuddle pile.
That's true, I do that all the time, but that's not a swap, that's an addition!
Addition is better than subtraction, because it multiplies power instead of dividing it, that's just the math of group dynamics!

But... I did have ice cream from the ice cream machine a few times as a kid. I always liked the one they'd dip in hot chocolate right after making, and it'd harden onto the ice cream, they don't do that anymore I've heard, which is a shame.

>>79861311
I have a lot of pranksters around me to learn from!

True, a trainer battle would probably be the result. I guess if they won, I'd have to just leave it alone and hope someone else comes back to do it, but, uh, hopefully this doesn't come across as overconfident but I'm fairly sure I'd win anyway.

>>79861311 (Clover)
Yeah... And if we did manage to find a way to replicate it, I do feel like they'd, um, not care quite as much as with some other magical stuff. Even so, there's a lot of, um, safer methods to look into first.
I've decided it was worth the risk in a few cases too, so I get that. Though I try to avoid it whenever I can.

>>79860925
It is? I think different ghosts have different opinions on that, Beryl was very insistent that I didn't call him or other ghosts "alive" or "living" even though that made talking about the state of ghosts at all a much more complex thing to type out each time.
Anyway, I admit, I'm not sure why one would, um, want to go anywhere else on said spectrum other than "alive" if their current body was in a healthy working condition, unless it gave some sort of major advantage, but, uh, I'm me and your you, so to each their own.

>>79874183
>Lightspeed almost jumps into the air, not having any tail to wag, it seems his body wishes to express itself in different ways... or that's just him
"Sounds like a -plan-! Woods make for -hard- races but I bet you are -great- at them!"
>She might have a bit of an extra advantage, as Lightspeed is not, in fact, nocturnal... though it doesn't seem like it's actually affected his energy levels all that much

> :)

>That's true as well
>Well, if the Legends games are any indication: yes, in fact. Doing things like breaking rocks unfreezing water with the moves does in fact gain some experience points, though not as much as a battle
>All of that makes sense*3
>She does, though Taner hasn't actually met that many Nickit in person to compare

>Now we know!
>Actually, Star may have gone through what to do if the backpack gets stolen with him, and if not, she will after this
>Playing sirens on the radio is a good idea as well

>(Fair, I've given up on her tail looking anything like a Nickit's, I got that once and then apparently never again)
>(Also noted, will have less snow in the future :P )

>>79874195
>Star listens
"Your method is superior; it sounds like you can experiment with it freely. Along with fur color I have only found two other things I can affect with it."
>But if Star is so worried that she might do something dangerous/irreversible, when and why did she experiment in the first place? Perhaps she was simply more...

>>79874195
>...reckless when she was younger?
>Taner nods
"Understandable!"
>Lightspeed says
"They look -cool- in -every- color!"
>Because of course he does!

"Okay, I'll get, like, a bag or something, or a small cooler, when we're ready."
>But then...

>Taner pauses-- that is in fact considerably better than what he was worrying she was going to say, being in jail isn't good-- Taner tries not to think about how Daifunka basically told him that Kalos prisons are rape dungeons, even if a part of him wants to believe that was just to frighten him and Star-- but it does mean he is alive (or at least was)
>Still, he looks to be in a lot more serious thought than before
>He and Star exchange a glance again, and Taner's serious look becomes something closer to determination
"Well, how much is the bail, then? Are we talking three or four digits, here? I actually know a lawyer-- though his specialty is more of defending Pokemon than people, I'm sure that he knows people in turn that could help-- if we can get him bail, that means no trail has happened yet, right?"
>Star feels she needs to explain some things because Taner is getting way ahead of himself
"My Taner and I have recently received something of a windfall. It is likely within our means to help. And we shall do so. Though of course only insofar as is lawful for us to do so."

(Thanks! She looks a bit different in it, but I figured she got a really good bruising recently in that one!)

You sure do! I'm always willing to give out pointers, heh

I don't see you losing very easily to random trainers either, especially ones that'd feel the need to stick their noses in other people's business. Just don't let the confidence go to your head too much!

Some secrets are more precious than others I suppose, plus if it became widespread it'd become much easier to make deals with humans

ghosts are not technically alive, but, can't ghosts feel most if not all or almost all the same as living things?
of course uh, there are the parts of 'living' off others emotions and whatnot

>Taner mutters while considering
>A bond?
>Taner is considering... if he gave Eldena the money and just stayed out of it otherwise, then at least nobody would be after him, because he'd be able to legitimately say he didn't have any part in things aside from giving them some money...

"Um..."
>Star replies first
"While we wish to help we do not wish to make enemies of the law. My Taner is willing to do much but I will not allow him to do something which may end up with him being imprisoned. I am sure you understand. That said? It is a fact that we know a lawyer who may at least be able to find someone willing and able to help."

>Taner and Star both seem less concerned about Eldena or her trainer breaking the law, and more concerned about NOT getting on the bad side of the law themselves-- perhaps a bit more concerned about that than the average trainer, in fact, especially in Kalos...

>>79880728
I'll take pointers! Though I feel like I do good while making it up on the spot, too!

Exactly. It's just something about thinking about the type of trainer who'd confront me on that, which makes me also think they wouldn't be that, um, experienced of a trainer. Don't worry, I won't! Even if I started to, it'd only take challenging Phoxy again to bring my confidence crashing back down to reality again... someday...
