  1. Jul 31 17:13:04 <CounterBeard> Last time on Party Scouts! The group enjoyed the Festival of Storms, Alexei made a drinking bro, Rika met a new manfriend, Savage met a nice kid named Timmy who rode a doduo and was fond of hats and Rock watched adorable pokemon play in puddles. Tip was being chill with Wailbro and Cecilia or something. We left off with the filling out of paperwork at the league office with Mrs. Johnson. Shall we fast forward to the next
  2. Jul 31 17:13:37 <Rock> day? Yes, we shall.
  3. Jul 31 17:14:02 <Rikala> I say yes to playing the Song of Double Time
  4. Jul 31 17:14:03 <Rikala> :3
  5. Jul 31 17:14:10 <Alexei> (yes)

  9. Jul 31 17:17:45 <CounterBeard> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HloaFo1SRk0
  10. Jul 31 17:17:56 <CounterBeard> t is the next day. November 8th to be exact, the sun has cleared with only a few fluffy white ones being chased further inland. The arena and stands have just been finished, well mostly. They could use a coat of paint. Mrs. Johnson stands waiting outside the League Office for you. The five Gym Leader hopefuls standing near by.
  11. Jul 31 17:18:39 * Rock walks up and examines the hopefuls... who are they again?
  12. Jul 31 17:19:05 <Tip> (I'm totally paying attention)
  13. Jul 31 17:19:07 <Alexei> 1d20+4
  14. Jul 31 17:19:07 <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, 1d20+4: 6 [1d20=2]
  15. Jul 31 17:19:29 <CounterBeard> Rock spies...Timmy the Kid. Will the guy Rika was flirting with, the guy in a beekeeper suit that Alexei said was Zero Fabulous and...A sweet little old lady in gardening gear.
  16. Jul 31 17:19:37 <Rikala> "Good to see ya again Will!" Rikala smiles and waves as they arrive. "And the rest of you too. I hope you are ready for a TOUGH challenge."
  17. Jul 31 17:19:57 * Alexei tries his best not to look hungover and generally like he spent the last day getting smashed. He even showered to get rid of the booze smell!
  18. Jul 31 17:20:23 * Rock nods. "Good to see the five of you here. Are you ready to get started?"
  19. Jul 31 17:20:59 <Rikala> (except Beard only listed 4 :3)
  20. Jul 31 17:21:06 <Alexei> (wait that's only 4, where is the fifth?)
  21. Jul 31 17:21:39 <Rock> (Oh, yeah. Whoops.)
  22. Jul 31 17:21:44 <CounterBeard> Oh and Bo'. Bo' is there with Alexei's voodoo potion, he seems to be in fancier clothes. A white button up shirt and black slacks, he has an ubrella with him. Remy stands nearby with his own smaller umbrella, and a bowtie. Will smiles and waves at Rika as does Timmy.
  23. Jul 31 17:21:55 * zoofman_ (derpaherpa@sux-D3486381.hsd1.va.comcast.net) has joined #TalentScouts
  24. Jul 31 17:23:35 <CounterBeard> The man in the beekeepr suit is nods to you all and resumes his conversation with the little woman. She smiled as well and did a little curtsey.
  25. Jul 31 17:23:39 * Alexei walks down the line nodding...and giving the little kid an odd look until he gets to Bo. "So is fabulous potion? Was going to pick up from voodoo mother anyway, but is nice for bring here to me."
  26. Jul 31 17:23:50 * Tip is late to the party like normal
  27. Jul 31 17:24:20 * Savage arrives late to the party too hey go figure. He looks tired again, too, rubbing his eyes. "Mmm, it's the day already, isn't it?"
  28. Jul 31 17:24:33 <Rock> "Yep. It is."
  29. Jul 31 17:24:42 <CounterBeard> "Yessir, said you should get it strait aways. Something about is best afore noon of the third day."
  30. Jul 31 17:25:30 <Tip> "What's today? Sunday?
  31. Jul 31 17:25:32 <CounterBeard> Will speaks up to Rock "I think we are but...What are we doing exactly?"
  32. Jul 31 17:25:34 <Rikala> "Well hey there Bo. Didn't know you were a hopeful too. This should be interesting."
  33. Jul 31 17:25:58 <CounterBeard> Timmy waves to Savage witha huge grin on his face.
  34. Jul 31 17:26:27 <Rock> "Good question. Me and the other judges will be discussing your challenges. If you don't mind, I want you guys to go to the league office for now.
  35. Jul 31 17:26:38 <Tip> "What are we doing? Juding?"
  36. Jul 31 17:27:33 <Alexei> "Hrm sound like real voodoo magic. Is not understand, but will definitely take advice." Alexei takes the potion, then turns to the rest of the team. "Is thought preparation was for battle tournament among contestant. Is time for revise plan?"
  37. Jul 31 17:27:41 <CounterBeard> The all give an affirmative of some sort and start to file in. Mrs. Johnson raises a brow at Rock and ushers them.
  38. Jul 31 17:28:02 <Rock> "You too, Ms. Johnson."
  39. Jul 31 17:29:27 <CounterBeard> "Well alright then Mr. Batora. We have some refreshments here for you all...but please save me some punch~" she trails off as he follows the Trainers inside.
  40. Jul 31 17:29:40 <Rikala> "Well I don't have a clue what he's planning but I figured I'm more than qualified to test their TOUGHNESS in a battle."
  41. Jul 31 17:29:57 <Rock> "Alright. So, what about the rest of you?"
  42. Jul 31 17:30:04 * Tip looks around, and pulls out his gun (I still have this bastard right)
  43. Jul 31 17:30:31 <Savage> "Well, I don't see what's wrong with a tournament," Savage tilts his head, rubbing his eyes as Sentrhat does so too. "But, I mean... uh..." he taps the side of his head. "Isn't there like standard procedure or something for this?"
  44. Jul 31 17:30:36 <CounterBeard> (Yep. Netwebberflaregun.)
  45. Jul 31 17:30:38 <Alexei> "Is think should narrow down pool of contestant first. Put in round-robin battle against each other. Take top winners and then do additional test."
  46. Jul 31 17:31:32 * Tip spins his gun around. "Okay I have no idea what's up because I forgot, but I got this"
  47. Jul 31 17:31:39 <Rikala> (it's too damn bad Rika doesn't have Earth Shaker yet XD)
  48. Jul 31 17:31:51 <Rock> "Hm..."
  49. Jul 31 17:32:01 * Alexei mutters and shakes his head. "irresponsible youth is forget mission objective..."
  50. Jul 31 17:32:24 <Tip> (I'm so cool. it's okay I forgot the mission)
  51. Jul 31 17:32:30 <Rikala> (oh crap I forgot to do my level ololol)
  52. Jul 31 17:32:42 <Rock> "So, we'll just do a tournament. What's the condition. 2v2?"
  53. Jul 31 17:33:34 <Savage> "But there's... five?"
  54. Jul 31 17:33:39 <Savage> "...There was five, right?"
  55. Jul 31 17:33:49 <Rock> "...shit."
  56. Jul 31 17:33:54 <Rock> "Um..."
  57. Jul 31 17:33:58 <Alexei> "We have round robin. Each contestant battle each other contestant. We come back later, see which is win most."
  58. Jul 31 17:34:24 <Rock> "Alright, that works. Everyone else agree?"
  59. Jul 31 17:34:58 <CounterBeard> (Heh, suprised you guys aren't fighting them. =B)
  60. Jul 31 17:35:12 <Alexei> (not yet, gotta narrow it down to get rid of the scrubs first)
  61. Jul 31 17:35:13 <Savage> "...Uh, alright," Savage tilts his head. "We get to test the winners ourselves anyway, right?"
  62. Jul 31 17:35:31 * Tip is just chillin with his gun
  63. Jul 31 17:35:39 <Rikala> "Sounds good to me. I want a TOUGH battle not some curb stomp."
  64. Jul 31 17:35:43 <Rock> "If we want."
  65. Jul 31 17:35:52 <Alexei> "Of course. Is simple test for make rid of unqualified shameful scrub first." Alexei nods thoughtfully. "...is not necessarily say contestant is scrub, but is possible."
  66. Jul 31 17:37:57 <Rock> "Alright, then. Let's do this."
  67. Jul 31 17:38:04 * Rock walks into the office.
  68. Jul 31 17:38:15 <Savage> "...how can they be a... a..." he's trying to think of a word about a word and it's clearly escaping him. "Anyway, I can't wait!" and he starts bouncing back and forth.
  69. Jul 31 17:39:35 * Alexei just rubs his aching head and follows Rock toward the office.
  70. Jul 31 17:40:30 <Rikala> "This oughta be good!" Rikala strolls in to the office looking pleased.
  71. Jul 31 17:40:34 <CounterBeard> The contestants are eating little finger sammichs and crackers and chatting. "and then you use a little bit of nice gritty sand to get the shell nice and clean. "Oh really? I'll have to try that..." Mrs. Johnson smiles as you enter "Yes?"
  72. Jul 31 17:41:00 <Rock> "Alright. First off... can I have some of the food?"
  73. Jul 31 17:41:36 <CounterBeard> "Of course Mr. Batora! Help yourself! Jimmy was going to bring soda as well...No idea where he is though."
  74. Jul 31 17:42:27 <Rock> "Ah, well, I'll wait for him before announcing what we're doing first." Rock grabs a mini sandwich and eats it... "These are good. What are they?"
  75. Jul 31 17:43:40 <CounterBeard> "Oh some cured emboat and a nice swiss. We have some mustard around here somewhere...and nono go on his own fault for missing the events I'll go out and get some soda my self in a bit."
  76. Jul 31 17:43:43 * Savage plops down with the contestants, digging in. Delicious breakfast! His Pokemon are all too happy to enjoy too.
  77. Jul 31 17:43:47 * Alexei grabs a few finger sandwiches and shoves them in his mouth, chasing them with a gulp of vodka. The best breakfast.
  78. Jul 31 17:44:11 <CounterBeard> (yfw Mrs. Johnson is a Soccermom.)
  79. Jul 31 17:44:40 <Rock> "Nah. Can't let anyone fall behind. They all signed up, after all."
  80. Jul 31 17:44:56 <Alexei> "...And when is gym leader, is acceptable for be late then too?"
  81. Jul 31 17:45:23 <Rikala> (>yfw Jimmy is not Timmy)
  82. Jul 31 17:45:27 <CounterBeard> She Blinks "Jimmy is my husband...."
  83. Jul 31 17:45:29 <Rikala> (Doop dee dooo)
  84. Jul 31 17:45:29 <Alexei> (god DAMNIT)
  85. Jul 31 17:45:32 <Rock> "Of course not. But he just went to get some soda... you know what, I'-"
  86. Jul 31 17:45:37 <Rock> "Oh."
  87. Jul 31 17:45:42 <Rock> "Um, alright!"
  88. Jul 31 17:45:42 <Alexei> (I totally misread that can we pretend that didn't happen?)
  89. Jul 31 17:45:50 <Rikala> (:3)
  90. Jul 31 17:45:50 <Tip> "Cool bros"
  91. Jul 31 17:46:00 * Tip spins his gun around. "I'd step back. It's louded"
  92. Jul 31 17:46:08 <Tip> (Loaded even!)
  93. Jul 31 17:46:23 <Rock> "Anyways, you all will have to duel each other once. 1v1, no switching. And... that's the first round."
  94. Jul 31 17:46:24 * Rikala munches on a mini sandwich and shoots a glare at Tip. "Put that stupid toy away Tip."
  95. Jul 31 17:46:49 <Rock> "Also, you cannot use a Pokemon you used in a previous duel."
  96. Jul 31 17:46:49 <CounterBeard> "First round?" TIMMY pipes up. Will does as well "What do you mean first round?"
  97. Jul 31 17:46:51 * Tip aims at Rock
  98. Jul 31 17:47:05 <Tip> "Pew! Blown away"
  99. Jul 31 17:47:18 * Alexei continues his awesome breakfast of sandwiches and vodka. "Last requirement is not necessary. And will also suggest 2v2 in case trainer is have type advantage by luck with first pokemon."
  100. Jul 31 17:47:29 <Rock> "Well, this is just the first round. You know... what do you call it?"
  101. Jul 31 17:47:38 <Rock> "Oh, alright. What Alexei said."
  102. Jul 31 17:47:47 <CounterBeard> Bo' Chimes in "The preliminaries?"
  103. Jul 31 17:47:47 <Savage> "Yeah, first round~" Savage grins up at them from his spot cross-legged. "We'll wanna test you out ourselves after~"
  104. Jul 31 17:47:56 <Tip> (I need to accidently fire my gun on someone)
  105. Jul 31 17:48:05 <Rock> (It has one round.)
  106. Jul 31 17:48:10 <CounterBeard> (But then no more webnetgun.)
  107. Jul 31 17:48:13 <Tip> (Excatly)
  108. Jul 31 17:48:28 <Rock> (And then Rock will strangle Tip.)
  109. Jul 31 17:48:55 <CounterBeard> "So we fight eachother? And then we all fight you?"
  110. Jul 31 17:48:58 <Tip> ( >Why are you still carrying that gun you fool!? Loliduuno looks cool? )
  111. Jul 31 17:49:30 <Rock> "Maybe. We want to see the results first before anything else."
  112. Jul 31 17:49:31 <Savage> "Well, maybe. We just said 'test'," Savage is grinning, being surprisingly... sly?
  113. Jul 31 17:49:35 <Tip> "Oh we have to fight too? Hand to hand?"
  114. Jul 31 17:49:45 <Rock> "No, Tip."
  115. Jul 31 17:50:11 <Tip> "Okay cool"
  116. Jul 31 17:50:11 <Rikala> (I can't decide if Rika would be more likely to straight up battle or do a mini Tough contest ohgod XD)
  117. Jul 31 17:50:18 * Alexei mutters in his native language. In case anyone can understand it, he's saying "Maybe it would be best if we actually decided on the second test before going into details."
  118. Jul 31 17:51:17 * Rikala grabs another mini-sandwich and munches. "...Well at any rate that should be enough info for now right? You all have some battles to prep for."
  119. Jul 31 17:51:25 <Rock> Oh, look. Rock does not understand. "Anyways, the first round starts... don't battle indoors, we have an arena. Now."
  120. Jul 31 17:51:48 <Alexei> (I think Alexei would do a contest-battle. Each turn, use an attack as either a contest or attacking move. Goal is to get to 100 contest points)
  121. Jul 31 17:51:48 <CounterBeard> "Well alright...Who fights who first?" The man who you still cannot see in a beekeepersuit asks.
  122. Jul 31 17:52:12 <Rock> "Pick. We just want you to battle each other. Any order. you want."
  123. Jul 31 17:52:32 <Tip> (Tip would just have some sort of obstacle course then a battle involving him riding wailbro)
  124. Jul 31 17:52:32 <Rock> "Matches cannot be refused, by the way, unless you already did it with the other once."
  125. Jul 31 17:52:42 <Alexei> "Battle separately. And do not talk about other contestant team. We will know if do." Alexei gives a knowing look to Rika.
  126. Jul 31 17:53:15 <CounterBeard> Will points at Timmy. "You and me kid. Round one. Let's go. You judges gonna watch us?"
  127. Jul 31 17:53:36 <Savage> "Course we are!" Savage jumps up, picking his pals up as he does.
  128. Jul 31 17:53:37 <Rock> "We'll watch everyone."
  129. Jul 31 17:53:38 <Alexei> "Of course."
  130. Jul 31 17:53:46 * Tip looks around. "Watch what?"
  131. Jul 31 17:53:54 <Rikala> "What else we gonna do? I'm looking forward to see what you hopefuls got in ya!"
  132. Jul 31 17:54:01 <Alexei> "Is stupid question. Need to evaluate battle prowess. Best way is watch battle."
  133. Jul 31 17:54:35 <CounterBeard> Timmy bounces up and starts to rush outside pulling a pokeball out. "Let'sgoAtuin!" Will smiles and follows after the kid.
  134. Jul 31 17:55:01 <Tip> "I could go outside and study some wildlife"
  135. Jul 31 17:55:24 * Alexei starts following, then turns to face the other contestants. "Wait here, make comfortable. Will come get when time for next battle. Decide among selves if please."
  136. Jul 31 17:55:36 * Rock chomps on another mini-sandwich before following.
  137. Jul 31 17:55:46 <CounterBeard> Bo' nods around a mouthful of sandwich as do the other two.
  138. Jul 31 17:56:15 <Tip> "ANd we're leaving. Seeya bros." Tip gives them the double gun sign and walks affter
  139. Jul 31 17:57:21 <CounterBeard> As you all approach the arena you notice the stands are starting to fill up.
  140. Jul 31 17:57:57 <Rock> "Haha. I guess there's a whole lot of spectators today."
  141. Jul 31 17:58:11 <Alexei> "Is good have spirit of competition."
  142. Jul 31 17:59:01 <CounterBeard> The boy and the man nod, and take up thier own positions on the arena floor. Timmy asks "So just one on one, right?"
  143. Jul 31 17:59:15 * Librarian has quit (Ping timeout)
  144. Jul 31 17:59:23 <Alexei> "Is one pokemon at a time, use two pokemon total. No switch."
  145. Jul 31 17:59:27 <Alexei> "Is everyone agree?"
  146. Jul 31 17:59:47 <Rock> "Yep."
  147. Jul 31 17:59:53 <Tip> "Sure"
  148. Jul 31 18:00:13 <Alexei> "Rika. Savage. Is agree?"
  149. Jul 31 18:00:23 <CounterBeard> They both nod, Will brinign out a comb, combing his hair some. "I'm good to go." "Me and Atuin are ready!"
  150. Jul 31 18:00:49 <Rikala> "Yeah yeah. Let's just get this started!"
  151. Jul 31 18:01:21 <Rock> (Welp. Dinner time, I think. I'll be gone for about 15-30 minutes.)
  152. Jul 31 18:01:37 <CounterBeard> Timmy sends out, a Turtwig! and Will sends out a Buizel!
  153. Jul 31 18:03:03 * Savage nods
  154. Jul 31 18:03:45 <CounterBeard> Will winces a little but continues to comb his hair some. "Alright let's go! Cammy you know the drill..." He contunies to comb his hair into...a Flatop? "SONIC BOOM!"
  155. Jul 31 18:05:14 * Alexei speaks quietly off to the side so only the team can hear. "Is thinking man make bad choice for first pokemon, is at disadvantage. But he is have much fabulous too."
  156. Jul 31 18:05:20 <Rikala> (Trouble keeps you runnin' faster~)
  157. Jul 31 18:05:55 <Rikala> "He'll do fine. I know I'm rooting for him~"
  158. Jul 31 18:07:15 <CounterBeard> The little turtle takes the blow quite well. Shrugging it off "Ohboy Atuin...Absorb!" The little turtle rushes to the waterweaseal and steals some of its lifeforce!
  159. Jul 31 18:07:20 * Alexei gives Rika a look. "...is fabulous man catch Rika eye?"
  160. Jul 31 18:07:29 <CounterBeard> (Also while I am thinking of it We need a dicemaid.)
  161. Jul 31 18:07:30 * Savage ends up quite clearly rooting for Timmy, though it looks like he's right into the battle in general
  162. Jul 31 18:07:39 <Alexei> (we have DM)
  163. Jul 31 18:07:39 <Savage> 1d1 we have one
  164. Jul 31 18:07:40 <DiceMaid-9001> Savage, we have one: 1 [1d1=1]
  165. Jul 31 18:07:46 <CounterBeard> (Ohgood)
  166. Jul 31 18:07:48 * Tip doesn't root for anyone
  167. Jul 31 18:08:18 <CounterBeard> "Cammy. Stay in there! Try a bite!"
  168. Jul 31 18:08:43 <Rikala> "Just look at him! He's TOUGH and yet... he's... as you say 'fabulous'. Definitely a looker." Rikala is very obviously crushing on the hunk of a man oh boy.
  169. Jul 31 18:09:59 <CounterBeard> The weasel takes a nibble on the tutrtle, the little grass type not liking it at all. "Ugh, try another aboorb! We'll outlast him this way!"
  170. Jul 31 18:12:40 <CounterBeard> Omnomnom The turtle steals more life...The weasel not looking too well. "DamnitCammydon'ydothistome. Go for the surefire hit! Swift!"
  171. Jul 31 18:13:56 <Rikala> "Aw come on Will... We have a battle to look forward to don't lose now."
  172. Jul 31 18:14:10 <CounterBeard> The weasel fires of a barraage of stars! But the turtle survives and lashes back with a storm of razor leaves...The weseal dosen't get up. "DammitCammy!"
  173. Jul 31 18:14:49 <Savage> "Whoooo~!"
  174. Jul 31 18:14:58 <CounterBeard> The poor little beatup turtle stands proud "Tuuuurt!"
  175. Jul 31 18:15:23 <Rikala> "Come one Will! You can still make a come back!"
  176. Jul 31 18:15:27 <Rock> (Back)
  177. Jul 31 18:15:32 <Rikala> (>on even heeerp)
  178. Jul 31 18:15:40 <Rock> "..."
  179. Jul 31 18:15:43 <Rock> "Rikala."
  180. Jul 31 18:15:58 <Rock> "You are a judge. Remain neutral."
  181. Jul 31 18:16:12 * Alexei grunts. "Is agree with Rock. Goes for you too Savage"
  182. Jul 31 18:16:16 <Rikala> "Tell that to Savage over there too then."
  183. Jul 31 18:16:30 <Savage> Savage is not listening. He is enjoying himself just like the rest of the crowd it seems.
  184. Jul 31 18:16:36 * Rikala crosses her arms and pouts a bit, knowing they are right.
  185. Jul 31 18:16:38 <CounterBeard> "Not bad kid! Now I'll show you how to fight! Go!" A large shellder pops out of his ball.
  186. Jul 31 18:17:07 <Rock> "...you too, Savage."
  187. Jul 31 18:17:22 <CounterBeard> "Atuin, razor leaf again!"
  188. Jul 31 18:17:32 <Tip> "I am neutral"
  189. Jul 31 18:17:38 <Tip> "None of them are cool"
  190. Jul 31 18:17:43 <Alexei> "Have fabulous water pokemon is good, but is need keep in mind type advantage."
  191. Jul 31 18:17:54 <CounterBeard> The shellder is blasted with razor leafs but shrugs them off, firing off a barrage of icespikes!
  192. Jul 31 18:18:44 <CounterBeard> The poor little turtle gets knocked silly. Timmy rushes out to pick up his pokemon. (Also brb. for a moment)
  193. Jul 31 18:19:10 <Rikala> "You mean like that?" Rikala looks pretty satisfied.
  194. Jul 31 18:21:19 * Rock shrugs. "This will be interesting."
  195. Jul 31 18:21:55 <Rikala> "And anyways... it's pretty common for gym leaders to specialize in a type... he's certainly dedicated to his water pokemon from what I've seen so far."
  196. Jul 31 18:22:10 <Alexei> "Will depend on last pokemon. I am specialize in water myself, am understand weakness well."
  197. Jul 31 18:33:26 <CounterBeard> "I'm sorry Atuin...Didn't think he'd have a trick like that but...Alright! Hey Bachu!" Timmy pulls off his hat, Winston the spinarak taking a nap ontom of his head and pulls out a little Joltik from inside the hat. "Let's go buddy!"
  198. Jul 31 18:34:03 * Savage leans forward. More. To take a good look at---ohmygoditsadorable
  199. Jul 31 18:34:12 <Savage> "iwantone"
  200. Jul 31 18:34:37 <Rock> "Ask him if he'll let you trade after the battle."
  201. Jul 31 18:34:51 <Alexei> "Can ask when battle done where to catch. Is better than ask trade."
  202. Jul 31 18:35:01 <Rock> "Or that."
  203. Jul 31 18:35:31 <CounterBeard> "Alright Bachu! Thunder wave!"
  204. Jul 31 18:37:00 <Rikala> "The kid is better than he appears..."
  205. Jul 31 18:37:53 <CounterBeard> "Goddamitkid you're killing me here! Do something Anything!" The shellfish stays stiff. Paralyzed. "Damnit." "alright..Bachu, lets go with...Electroweb!"
  206. Jul 31 18:37:55 <Rock> "Remember. These five are finalists."
  207. Jul 31 18:38:26 <CounterBeard> "Protect!"
  208. Jul 31 18:38:34 <Savage> "Trade?" Savage kind of :/s a little at the idea.
  209. Jul 31 18:38:59 * Rock shrugs. "Or you can ask him where he got it so you can befriend one."
  210. Jul 31 18:40:14 <Rikala> "Geeze... it's only the first match and I'm already on edge. These two are giving it their all alright."
  211. Jul 31 18:40:28 <CounterBeard> "Dangit. That's a nice shelldar! Bachu Bugg Bite and then after another electro web!"
  212. Jul 31 18:41:39 <CounterBeard> The shellfish falls under the onslaught of the ittybitty spider.
  213. Jul 31 18:41:58 * Savage ignores his frown and is now cheering again AW YEAH THIS IS AWESOME
  214. Jul 31 18:42:36 <Rock> "Someone else announce the winner." Rock mumbles loud enough so the others can hear.
  215. Jul 31 18:43:03 <Alexei> "Why? Alexei command of language is not good."
  216. Jul 31 18:43:23 <CounterBeard> Will smiles and shakes Timmy's hand hand "Not bad for a tyke." "Heh, thanks mister Will."
  217. Jul 31 18:43:36 <Alexei> "By the way Savage, is Alexei drink too much today, or is you look hairier today?"
  218. Jul 31 18:44:12 <Rock> "Alright, congratulations, Timmy, Will. Please go back to the office."
  219. Jul 31 18:44:15 <Savage> "Eh?" He turns back to look at Alexei with a bit of a curious look. "You mean this?" he points to the poofy white crest of hair he has obtained.
  220. Jul 31 18:44:30 * Tip looks at Savage
  221. Jul 31 18:44:35 <Tip> "looking manly"
  222. Jul 31 18:44:58 * Tip gives Savage the double guns
  223. Jul 31 18:45:14 * Savage awkwardly returns the sign
  224. Jul 31 18:45:19 * Rikala pouts momentarily but sighs and gets over it. "Looks like the winner of this round is Timmy! You both did well!"
  225. Jul 31 18:45:33 <CounterBeard> The two contestants nod and talk amiably as they walk off. A few moments later and the gardner and the beekeeper man come out.
  226. Jul 31 18:46:21 <Alexei> (may I recommend we just get summaries of the proceeding battles? Playing out each combination will take a looong time. Unless everyone else wants to do it that way)
  227. Jul 31 18:47:01 <Rock> (Time skip? Sure. I'm fine with that.)
  228. Jul 31 18:47:17 <CounterBeard> (Thats the plan just wanted to show the kid being cool and Smart. =B)
  229. Jul 31 18:47:19 <Rikala> (I'm fine with a summary :3)
  230. Jul 31 18:47:27 <Rikala> (Also screw you I like Will ;-;)
  231. Jul 31 18:47:35 <Alexei> (Basically, list pokemon used, number of wins for each, and any unique/cool strategies)
  232. Jul 31 18:47:45 <CounterBeard> (Guile is a cool guy.)
  233. Jul 31 18:49:10 <Rock> Oh, and all Pokemon seen.
  234. Jul 31 18:49:37 <Alexei> (I've already updated the list for this battle)
  235. Jul 31 18:50:14 <CounterBeard> The gardner sends out a tropius and the beeman sends out a Skorupi. The bee man seems to mostly use the little bugs defense as an advantage but it is ultimatly taken down. He switches to volbeat. It uses the combined tricks of flash and double team to cheese out the evasion and eventually takes the Tropius down.
  236. Jul 31 18:51:07 <Rikala> (>old lady gardener has a tropius)
  237. Jul 31 18:51:09 <Rikala> (ohsweetjesus)
  238. Jul 31 18:53:34 <CounterBeard> The garden lady sends out a Nuzleaf that seemed to use its defense and HUGE GUTS to make maximum use of Bide. the illumise (derp not volbeat always mix them up.) just manages to scratch out a win by the use of its evasion, confuse ray and moonlight.
  239. Jul 31 18:56:35 <CounterBeard> The gardner lady seems quite disgruntled and the bee man seems as calm as ever. "I assume we are done here for now?"
  240. Jul 31 18:57:04 <Rock> "Yes. But before then, what are both of your names, again?"
  241. Jul 31 18:58:26 <CounterBeard> "Henry Sharance." "Madrigal McGee."
  242. Jul 31 18:58:54 <Rock> "Good. You may go."
  243. Jul 31 18:59:18 <Alexei> "Am like Henry's strategy very much." Alexei nods.
  244. Jul 31 18:59:31 * Rock nods
  245. Jul 31 18:59:43 <CounterBeard> They leave and...Out comes Bo' all by himself. "'lo folks."
  246. Jul 31 18:59:49 <Savage> "So full of energy~" Savage grins, bouncing back and forth on his feet like he's ready to jump into a fight or something.
  247. Jul 31 19:00:05 <Rock> "Hm? You aren't going to match with anyone?"
  248. Jul 31 19:00:19 <Rikala> "Really? I wouldn't take you for a fan of bugs Alexei."
  249. Jul 31 19:01:20 <Alexei> "Rika is forget Gin, who is most fabulous bug." Alexei looks kinda disgruntled that Rika would dare forget about his most fabulous butterfree. >:(
  250. Jul 31 19:02:10 <CounterBeard> Bo' shrugs "Didja want me to fight the folks who already gone? Most of them seemed like their pokes were a bit beat up."
  251. Jul 31 19:02:31 <Alexei> "Is why have pokemon center."
  252. Jul 31 19:03:28 <Rock> "...I knew I forgot something." Rock heads in to the building. "Mrs. Johnson, do you mind if you escort the challengers to the PokeCenter after their match? I'd like you to do that for the rest of the matches."
  253. Jul 31 19:03:36 <Rikala> "Nah I didn't forget. Most bugs aren't beautiful like a Butterfree though."
  254. Jul 31 19:04:29 <Alexei> "Purple bug was ugly like shameful youngest son who get no estate from family for be miserable failure...but firefly bug is fabulous."
  255. Jul 31 19:05:51 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson nods. Dododo Time Skipu. The gardner lady and Bo' stand off from each other. She sends out this time a Carnivine and Bo' sends out..Remy scuttles forward. He is wearing his fancy little bowtie and snaps his pinsirs.
  256. Jul 31 19:06:28 * Tip yawns
  257. Jul 31 19:08:50 <CounterBeard> The fight only lasts a few moments the Carnivine goes in for a strong Seed Bomb attack...Only for Remy to Counter it.
  258. Jul 31 19:09:32 * Alexei gives a light chuckle. "Water type is strong and fabulous." he declares to the rest of his team.
  259. Jul 31 19:09:58 * Savage whistles. "He's definitely something!"
  260. Jul 31 19:10:51 <Rikala> "I had a feeling there was more to him than he let on. He even has some psychic powers too."
  261. Jul 31 19:11:07 * Rock nods.
  262. Jul 31 19:11:30 * zoofman_ has quit (Quit: )
  263. Jul 31 19:11:51 <Alexei> "...Yes, psychic power would allow be safe as gym leader. Remember Triface is going try oppose gym leader once establish."
  264. Jul 31 19:12:03 <CounterBeard> She sends out the Nuzleaf again and...Bo'looks to the group "What are the rules for this here battle? Anything goes or jes pokemon?" and swaps out for a croagunk. It waves to the nuzleaf.
  265. Jul 31 19:12:14 * zoofman (hokieshoki@sux-D3486381.hsd1.va.comcast.net) has joined #TalentScouts
  266. Jul 31 19:12:36 <Rock> "Just Pokemon. And didn't we say no switching?"
  267. Jul 31 19:13:50 <CounterBeard> (Then ignore that.)
  268. Jul 31 19:14:50 <CounterBeard> Remy goes up for a cut, and the nuzleaf takes the attack gathering energy. Remy goes again for the attack and again the Nuzleaf take the hit. Untill it unleashes energy taking poor Remy out..
  269. Jul 31 19:18:17 * Rock sighs.
  270. Jul 31 19:18:42 <CounterBeard> Then he switches to the frog. It takes its time and staaaares at the Carnivine before the fight continues. It sets up a substitute and the carnivine tries to bite it. It then lets out a barrage of Poison Stings as well as a Faint attack. It seems to be more of a hide and sneak attack plan. It eventually drops the carnivine well after the substitute dies.
  271. Jul 31 19:19:49 <Rock> "Bo' won agaist Madrigal. Good to know."
  272. Jul 31 19:20:56 * Alexei nods.
  273. Jul 31 19:21:16 <Rock> "That's our... third match?"
  274. Jul 31 19:21:27 <Alexei> "Yes."
  275. Jul 31 19:22:06 <Savage> "Yup. Out of... out of... uh..." he's trying to count on his fingers. "...Sixteen? Nah, I don't think that's right!"
  276. Jul 31 19:22:21 <Alexei> (should be 10 I think)
  277. Jul 31 19:22:35 <Savage> (That's correct :3c )
  278. Jul 31 19:22:41 <Rock> (Yes. I figured that out. But that's too out of cha-)
  279. Jul 31 19:22:55 <Alexei> (out of character for Alexei too. Only Rika is smart enough. >_>)
  280. Jul 31 19:23:24 <Rikala> "Out of ten matches. We still got a ways to go before we face anyone ourselves..."
  281. Jul 31 19:23:34 <Rock> "Ah. Alright. Next match."
  282. Jul 31 19:23:35 <Rikala> (I'm the smart one of the group with 15 int? ohjesus)
  283. Jul 31 19:23:55 <Tip> (Lol)
  284. Jul 31 19:24:08 <Rikala> (also maybe now would be a good time for just a frame summary of the rest since we've seen everyone now?)
  285. Jul 31 19:24:18 <Alexei> (agreed)
  286. Jul 31 19:24:45 <Alexei> (though feel free to mention any new pokemon they've used :3)
  287. Jul 31 19:27:03 <CounterBeard> Bo' beats Henry, Henry beats Timmy, Timmy beats Madrigal, Madrigal Beats Will, Will beats Henry, Bo' and Timmy just barley scrape by but Bo' wins. Bo's team: Remy, Cragunk Poliwrath. Will's Team: Shelldar, Buizel, Azumarill, and Slow poke. Madrigals team: Carnivine, Tropius and Nuzleaf, timmys team: Spinarak, Joltik, Doduo, and Turtwig.
  288. Jul 31 19:27:53 <CounterBeard> (Did I miss anything?)
  289. Jul 31 19:27:54 <Rock> "Good matches, everyone."
  290. Jul 31 19:28:10 <Rock> (Beekeeper.)
  291. Jul 31 19:28:23 <Alexei> (that's Henry)
  292. Jul 31 19:28:43 <Rock> (Still, his team is not on the block.)
  293. Jul 31 19:28:44 <Rikala> (You didn't list Henry's team)
  294. Jul 31 19:28:54 <Alexei> (oh, right)
  295. Jul 31 19:29:18 <CounterBeard> (Henry: Illumise, Pineco and Scorupi)
  296. Jul 31 19:30:07 <Savage> "Hmmm..." Savage seems quite thoughtful on the situation. Or... something. He's been bouncing around the -entire- competition.
  297. Jul 31 19:30:18 <Rikala> (So.... Timmy: 2 wins, Will: 1 win, Madrigal: 1 win, Henry: 2 wins, Bo: 3 wins)
  298. Jul 31 19:30:30 <Rikala> (...I think I missed something)
  299. Jul 31 19:30:31 <Rock> (...)
  300. Jul 31 19:30:41 <Rock> (...what's the result of Will and Bo'?)
  301. Jul 31 19:30:48 <Savage> (Yeah there's... I think there was a match missing eys)
  302. Jul 31 19:30:59 <Rock> (Will and Bo'.)
  303. Jul 31 19:31:14 <CounterBeard> (Will beat Bo')
  304. Jul 31 19:31:43 <Rock> (Got it.)
  305. Jul 31 19:32:19 <Alexei> "Bo is has most win. But should choose other contestant to test too perhaps."
  306. Jul 31 19:32:54 <Rock> "So, Bo has three wins, only beat by Will. Madrigal has one win... she only beat Will."
  307. Jul 31 19:33:28 <Savage> "So that means... rock paper scissors!"
  308. Jul 31 19:33:37 <Rock> "...no."
  309. Jul 31 19:33:41 <CounterBeard> All the contests in a chorus go "What?"
  310. Jul 31 19:33:41 <Savage> "Bo beats Madrigal beats Will beats Bo! Rock paper scissors!"
  311. Jul 31 19:33:56 <Rock> "..."
  312. Jul 31 19:33:58 <Savage> "...So we don't know who's the best," he taps his chin at this.
  313. Jul 31 19:34:17 <Alexei> "Hm, am still think Henry have impressive strategy. I think should pick two to test. Should be Bo and Henry."
  314. Jul 31 19:34:25 <Rikala> "...Or we could just test the top three."
  315. Jul 31 19:34:54 <Rock> "..."
  316. Jul 31 19:35:01 <Rikala> "Henry and Will are tied for wins after all, would be kinda unfair to test one and not the other."
  317. Jul 31 19:35:19 <Savage> "...Oi~! You shouldn't forget Timmy; he got two wins too." Savage frowns.
  318. Jul 31 19:35:34 <Alexei> "No, is not count only win. Is also count soundness of strategy. I am think Henry have best strategy out of them."
  319. Jul 31 19:36:15 * Rikala just wants to battle Will and look at his sexiness. "...Wasn't expecting the competition to be this even. This is tricky..."
  320. Jul 31 19:36:20 <Rock> "We can't do that."
  321. Jul 31 19:36:41 <Rock> "If we just by strategy, every single gym leader will have the exact same strategy."
  322. Jul 31 19:36:58 <Alexei> "Alexei am not understand Rock logic. Please to explain."
  323. Jul 31 19:37:42 <Rock> "Every gym should have their own strategy."
  324. Jul 31 19:38:00 <Alexei> "Yes, and I am say Henry have display best strategy out of contestant."
  325. Jul 31 19:38:17 <Rock> "...true. But strategy shouldn't be the only thing."
  326. Jul 31 19:38:27 <Rock> "Oh, wait, we have wins as well... haha."
  327. Jul 31 19:38:30 <Alexei> "It is tiebreaker."
  328. Jul 31 19:38:40 <Rock> "Can't we just test four of the contestants?"
  329. Jul 31 19:39:25 <Alexei> "Then round robin is use so much time for eliminate only one contestant? Point of watch match is choose top few, not choose almost everyone."
  330. Jul 31 19:40:58 <Rikala> "As sad as I am to say it... Will wasn't particularly smart in how he battled."
  331. Jul 31 19:41:50 <Rock> "Hm..."
  332. Jul 31 19:42:01 <Alexei> "Remember gym leader is not for beat every trainer who challenge. Is to provide unique challenge to test trainer."
  333. Jul 31 19:44:10 <Savage> "Well, I mean there's more than that, isn't there? Like, y'know. Spirit! Heart!" Savage takes up a battler's pose.
  334. Jul 31 19:44:41 <Rikala> "Since Henry, Will, and Timmy are tied... should we just do a vote amongst ourselves? We can test Bo and whoever is voted for then."
  335. Jul 31 19:45:13 <Alexei> "Okay, then each member is choose one vote." (we should PM them to Beard :O)
  336. Jul 31 19:45:20 <Rock> "Alright. Are we voiting for whoever is staying or leaving?"
  337. Jul 31 19:45:40 <Alexei> "Who test"
  338. Jul 31 19:45:48 <Rock> "Alright."
  339. Jul 31 19:45:58 >CounterBeard< Rock votes for Henry.
  340. Jul 31 19:46:08 <Rikala> (Tip doesn't get a vote because he fell asleep AND ISN'T HERE)
  341. Jul 31 19:46:39 <Tip> (What)
  342. Jul 31 19:47:24 <Rikala> (Seriously pay the fuck attention to whats going on you are like never actually participating)
  343. Jul 31 19:47:38 <Rikala> (and are we doing seekrit votes to Beard? XD)
  344. Jul 31 19:47:45 * DiceMaid-9001 is now known as Jessie
  345. Jul 31 19:47:49 <Alexei> (I pmed mine to Beard)
  346. Jul 31 19:47:56 <Savage> (I did)
  347. Jul 31 19:48:07 * Jessie is now known as DiceMaid-9001
  348. Jul 31 19:48:46 <Tip> (This double gaming is hard)
  349. Jul 31 19:49:07 <Rock> (Done.)
  350. Jul 31 19:49:11 <Rikala> (well you were aware of it happening when you signed up so :/)
  351. Jul 31 19:49:12 <Alexei> (you should only double game if you can handle paying attention to both games :/)
  352. Jul 31 19:49:43 <Tip> (Good point)
  353. Jul 31 19:49:44 <CounterBeard> (Looks like Henry wins out!)
  354. Jul 31 19:50:35 <CounterBeard> (Gotta do what you are comfortable with TipBro. If it be too much then might want to drop a game.)
  355. Jul 31 19:51:35 <Rikala> (>Not Will. You all have chosen.... poorly.)
  356. Jul 31 19:52:04 <Rock> "Alright, so we have Bo and Henry left. How shall we do this?"
  357. Jul 31 19:52:04 <Alexei> (I'm going to guess the votes were Rock and Alexei: Henry, Savage: Timmy, and Rika: Will)
  358. Jul 31 19:52:51 <Alexei> (how ARE we going to handle this. I imagine we all have ideas for testing them, but that would be playing out 10 separate competitions if we did that)
  359. Jul 31 19:53:10 <Rock> (IC, please.)
  360. Jul 31 19:53:38 <Alexei> (No, like I'm sure we have IC ideas but in terms of actually playing them out in their entirety...)
  361. Jul 31 19:53:57 <Rock> (Stick to IC.)
  362. Jul 31 19:54:09 <Rock> "...guys?"
  363. Jul 31 19:54:25 * Savage is busy seeing Timmy off and encouraging the little guy
  364. Jul 31 19:55:09 * Rikala is off talking to Will. "Well you had MY vote the entire time but... hopefully this isn't the last we'll see of you."
  365. Jul 31 19:55:34 <Rikala> (tl;dr: none of us have any freaking clue :D)
  366. Jul 31 19:55:56 <CounterBeard> "Heh, thanks Savage! Stop by me and my Pa's ranch some time! You can see our nests for our pokemon!"
  367. Jul 31 19:56:23 <Alexei> "Alexei is have idea, will test each contestant individually to see if have trained pokemon in versatile way. Must be able to make fabulous display while do battle."
  368. Jul 31 19:56:27 <CounterBeard> Will smiles and winks at Rika "Oh I'm sure you will. Stop by the Reef some time I'll show you around."
  369. Jul 31 19:56:42 <Rock> "..."
  370. Jul 31 19:57:13 <Rock> "Let's stick with one te-" LIGHTBULB!
  371. Jul 31 19:57:22 <Rikala> "Looking forward to it." Rikala returns the wink with a smile before twirling around and getting back with the group.
  372. Jul 31 19:57:23 * Savage ruffles Timmy's hair. "Can do, kiddo!"
  373. Jul 31 19:57:43 * Rock runs to the building and asks for Ms. Johnson.
  374. Jul 31 19:57:50 * Cleff (DamienLuna@sux-27BF3D1.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) has joined #TalentScouts
  375. Jul 31 19:58:27 <CounterBeard> She is drinking some soda and smiles at Rock "Yes?"
  376. Jul 31 19:58:45 <Rock> "How good are you at judging contests?"
  377. Jul 31 19:59:51 <CounterBeard> "Me? I like to WATCH them. Never thought of judging one."
  378. Jul 31 20:00:29 <CounterBeard> "Why do you ask?"
  379. Jul 31 20:00:35 <Alexei> "Does team have idea for test gym leader candidate? Am thinking each have own idea. Is correct?"
  380. Jul 31 20:01:22 <Rock> "Good! This'll be your first time." Rock then startstarts scribbling on the desk with his finger before running out the door. "We're having a Pokemon contest to decide the gym leader!"
  381. Jul 31 20:01:25 <Rikala> "Well they can battle, we got that much. Though I say a real test of their wit and determination would be a contest."
  382. Jul 31 20:02:01 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson stares at Rock. "And...What does that have to do with being a Gym leader?"
  383. Jul 31 20:02:29 <Rock> "It'll be a battle/contest hybrid. I was thinking it up when I heard the other agents are contest freaks."
  384. Jul 31 20:02:45 <Alexei> (...Actually that was what Alexei was suggesting. :/)
  385. Jul 31 20:02:53 <CounterBeard> "Uh huh..."
  386. Jul 31 20:03:11 <Alexei> (the one with a point total goal and you choose to use a move each turn as either a contest move or an attacking move...)
  387. Jul 31 20:03:19 * Savage returns tapping his chin. "I was thinking... well, actually that sounds kinda cool, I guess, but..."
  388. Jul 31 20:03:21 <Rock> "So, um... Alexei... you're the chief contest freak. Go explain the rules."
  389. Jul 31 20:03:55 * Rikala looks at Rock with a 'wat' face. "Hello. I'm here too."
  390. Jul 31 20:05:28 <Alexei> "Is simple. In contest, judge is award point for fabulous display by pokemon. At end, trainer with most point is win. But in this, there is goal and first trainer to get that number points is win. And pokemon can use skill to attack opponent or to create fabulous display. Trainer must choose strategy carefully."
  391. Jul 31 20:06:01 <Rock> "First one to get x amount of points or knock out the other team wins!"
  392. Jul 31 20:06:21 <CounterBeard> "I see. So it would be the four of you against the two the two of the by themselves?"
  393. Jul 31 20:06:47 <Rock> "I'm not that great at contests. I'll pass."
  394. Jul 31 20:06:49 <Alexei> "Is simple. We are choose one pokemon use each. They are choose five between themself."
  395. Jul 31 20:06:58 <Savage> "...Would that be it?" Savage tilts his head.
  396. Jul 31 20:07:19 <Alexei> "...Can have other test too. Alexei was simply suggest one idea. Obviously good have more."
  397. Jul 31 20:07:40 <Rock> "But yeah. We have to go to sleep sometime, you know."
  398. Jul 31 20:07:47 <Rikala> (>yfw we could have tested them all at once doing this)
  399. Jul 31 20:07:53 <Rikala> (doopdoo)
  400. Jul 31 20:08:21 <Alexei> (it made sense to whittle down the contestants first anyway. no need for scrubs like the gardener to drag down the rest. :P)
  401. Jul 31 20:08:22 <Savage> "...Don't contests usually need... three judges?" he headtilts.
  402. Jul 31 20:08:47 * Alexei nods. "We will have to find."
  403. Jul 31 20:08:52 <Rock> "I'm a judge. Mrs. Johnson is a judge. And the audience will be our last judge."
  404. Jul 31 20:09:21 <Alexei> "...Rock is not participate? Then hope Rock have other test for candidate after."
  405. Jul 31 20:09:32 <Rock> "Nah."
  406. Jul 31 20:09:40 <Rock> "Just one final round is enough."
  407. Jul 31 20:09:55 <Rock> "Plus, I'm just the bodyguard. Remember?"
  408. Jul 31 20:09:59 <Savage> "Mmm... and then, me, Rikala, Henry, Bo, an' oldman."
  409. Jul 31 20:10:03 <Alexei> "....Then how is pick between?"
  410. Jul 31 20:10:21 <Alexei> "If two candidate are win, how is choose which to make gym leader?"
  411. Jul 31 20:10:33 <Rock> "..."
  412. Jul 31 20:10:38 <Rock> "Oh, god."
  413. Jul 31 20:10:43 <Rock> "That's your job!"
  414. Jul 31 20:11:03 * Alexei shrugs. "And is yours too. Am say is wrong to pick with input of only four of team."
  415. Jul 31 20:11:10 <Rock> "But, fine. If we can't figure out the winner of this final round, I'll do the tiebreaker match."
  416. Jul 31 20:11:26 <Alexei> "Is only fair. Then shall announce rule and begin?"
  417. Jul 31 20:11:34 <Rock> "Go do it."
  418. Jul 31 20:13:25 <Savage> "Mmm..." Savage seems to be pondering, looking between his partners. "You know, I've never been in a contest with anyone other than kids before..."
  419. Jul 31 20:13:28 <Rikala> "Heh... we'll have to take it a bit easy if it's a contest."
  420. Jul 31 20:13:58 <CounterBeard> The two men are chatting to one another Henry took off his beekeeper mask. His head is shaved and his dark skin is a contrast against the beige of the suit. His face is pockmarked and covered in scars.
  421. Jul 31 20:14:32 <Rock> "Alright! Are we ready to begin?"
  422. Jul 31 20:14:44 <Savage> "Uh, I think so... hey, hey, what kinda contest is it?"
  423. Jul 31 20:15:12 <Alexei> "Is switch each round. Best way to test whether can handle all situation."
  424. Jul 31 20:15:25 * Rock takes out a small wooden octagonal prism. "I'll pick from this thing what kind of round it is."
  425. Jul 31 20:16:22 * Rock shakes the container to start. "First one is a...
  426. Jul 31 20:16:24 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson sets up a Judges area infront of the stands with two chairs for her and Rock.
  427. Jul 31 20:16:24 <Rock> 1d5
  428. Jul 31 20:16:26 <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, 1d5: 2 [1d5=2]
  429. Jul 31 20:16:39 <Rock> "Tough round."
  430. Jul 31 20:16:49 * Rock sits down on one of the chairs.
  431. Jul 31 20:17:05 <Alexei> (are we going to do stuff like our natural grace bonuses and contest stat bonuses? Because that can get rather stacked. Also, is everyone good with 100 points for the goal?)
  432. Jul 31 20:17:05 <CounterBeard> "This is so exciting~"
  433. Jul 31 20:17:24 <Rock> (Good. And no bonuses.)
  434. Jul 31 20:17:41 <Rock> (Fair footing, Alexei. :p)
  435. Jul 31 20:18:10 <Savage> "A battle contest? That means I can't just..." he pats the Senthat. "Okay, I guess... Wotter? We're gonna start this off, okay?"
  436. Jul 31 20:19:14 <Rock> "Let's do this!"
  437. Jul 31 20:19:22 <Rikala> "Tough huh?" Rikala stretches her arms behind her. "Alright that's my specialty. Sounds good to me!"
  438. Jul 31 20:19:42 <Rock> ROUND 1: TOUGH round! SPDs, everyone!
  439. Jul 31 20:19:47 <Alexei> "Is not specialty, but is not matter. Point is not win, point is test candidate."
  440. Jul 31 20:20:12 <Rock> (Yes, first round will be determined by SPD.)
  441. Jul 31 20:20:13 <Rikala> A pokeball floats out of her purse and hits the ground releasing an Aron. "Sheldon, you're up!"
  442. Jul 31 20:20:31 <Savage> (5 speed wotter)
  443. Jul 31 20:20:33 <CounterBeard> Bo' sends out his Poliwrath NORMAN and Henry sends out his Scorupi, Betrand.
  444. Jul 31 20:20:47 <Rikala> (3 Speed Aron heerp... also is it bad that I forgot what contest stats do XD)
  445. Jul 31 20:21:04 * Alexei tosses out a pokeball, which explodes with a shower of light, revealing a Feebas. "Niko, is time for mission!" (speed 8)
  446. Jul 31 20:21:26 <Rock> (Counter? Bo and Henry?)
  447. Jul 31 20:21:47 <Rock> (I'll be the Contest Master, if you don't mind.)
  448. Jul 31 20:22:42 <Rikala> (also shouldn't they get 2 pokemon each to match our 4 pokemon :3)
  449. Jul 31 20:22:47 <Alexei> (yes)
  450. Jul 31 20:22:59 <Rock> (Three.)
  451. Jul 31 20:23:04 <Alexei> (I'd say grant them dual-wield for this basically XD)
  452. Jul 31 20:23:29 <Savage> (For the record: Savage is seeing this as a free-for-all)
  453. Jul 31 20:23:41 * UboaServ has changed the topic to: CONTESTBATTLES| Norman 12 Betrand 10 Niko 8 Wotter 5 Sheldon Last
  454. Jul 31 20:23:52 <CounterBeard> (I though it was a freeforall as well.)
  455. Jul 31 20:24:01 <Alexei> (oh is that the case?)
  456. Jul 31 20:24:28 <Rock> (Free for all it is!)
  457. Jul 31 20:24:34 <Alexei> (I thought it was them vs us, each team trying to get to 100 total but FFA works too XD)
  458. Jul 31 20:25:06 <Rock> "First round! It's a Tough round! No attacking allowed on the first round!"
  459. Jul 31 20:25:16 <Rikala> (FFA sounds chaotic and delicious and Rikala will be in full contest mode this is great)
  460. Jul 31 20:25:25 <Alexei> (but in that case, we might want to lower the point goal since I had it with team vs team in mind)
  461. Jul 31 20:25:31 <CounterBeard> Norman does the dance of his people! It starts to Rain!
  462. Jul 31 20:25:36 <CounterBeard> 2d4

  465. Jul 31 20:25:57 <Alexei> (Niko's speed shoots up to 16 if it actually does start raining)
  466. Jul 31 20:26:14 <Alexei> (if it's only contest effect, then not)
  467. Jul 31 20:26:17 <Rock> "Good!"
  468. Jul 31 20:26:28 <CounterBeard> (Nope is both =D)

  480. Jul 31 20:29:18 <Alexei> (he doesn't think Rock would appreciate fine beauty :P)
  481. Jul 31 20:29:19 <Rock> (Alright.)
  482. Jul 31 20:29:31 <Rikala> (we didn't do appeal stage)
  483. Jul 31 20:29:33 <Rikala> (:3)
  484. Jul 31 20:29:38 <Rock> (Counter, play the audience and Mrs. Johnson for me.)
  485. Jul 31 20:29:47 <Rock> (That was on purpose.)
  486. Jul 31 20:30:03 <Alexei> (yeah, we're skipping the part where we all roll natural grace and make the candidates >:( at us )
  487. Jul 31 20:30:05 <Rikala> (oh well okay, also no contest feats so D:)
  488. Jul 31 20:30:12 <CounterBeard> The auidence laughs at the little fish! They are reminded of the Festival.

  809. Jul 31 21:43:27 <CounterBeard> The entire office is trashed. Shelves are pulled out, papers scattered, desks tipped over. You all spot something pinned to the wall, a name plate K.Nave. Rika hears vauge mumbling from one of the closed doors in the back.
  810. Jul 31 21:43:34 * Tip has quit (Quit: Tip)
  811. Jul 31 21:43:45 <Rock> "...hm... also, I hope I have enough money to b- what."
  812. Jul 31 21:44:12 * Rikala immediately focuses her mind in the direction to see if she can pick up anything with telepathy. "On alert people."
  813. Jul 31 21:44:14 * Rock looks at the name plate.
  814. Jul 31 21:44:29 * Alexei draws his sword and sighs. "Of course would attack office while gone."

  820. Jul 31 21:46:44 * Damien is now known as Cleff
  821. Jul 31 21:47:59 <CounterBeard> Rock: The name plate plainly read K.nave
  822. Jul 31 21:48:13 * Rock walks up to the name plate and takes it down.
  823. Jul 31 21:48:54 * Rikala walks over to the door she heard mumbling from and taps on it gently, gesturing to the others to stay quiet.
  824. Jul 31 21:49:12 <CounterBeard> A closer inspection reveals the period is a little mask...KNave?
  825. Jul 31 21:49:35 <Rock> "..."
  826. Jul 31 21:49:49 * Rock takes out his sword and stays quiet for now.
  827. Jul 31 21:49:58 <CounterBeard> "Mhmphpmhphhm!"
  828. Jul 31 21:50:18 <Alexei> "Sound like is take poor Jimmy for prisoner is guess."
  829. Jul 31 21:50:22 <Alexei> "Or is just tie up and gag."
  830. Jul 31 21:50:42 <Rock> "...Rikala, do you need me to open that down?"
  831. Jul 31 21:51:25 <Rikala> Rikala shakes her head and transmits to everyone <It's Mrs. Johnson. She was checking on things and got ambushed. Do NOT let on that we know whats going on.>
  832. Jul 31 21:51:50 <Rikala> With that she steps to one side of the door as her whip floats out from her purse.
  833. Jul 31 21:51:58 * Rock nods.
  834. Jul 31 21:52:56 <Rikala> And then it floats back into her purse and she swings the door open immediately. "Rock! Go hunt down the other Mrs. Johnson immediately!"
  835. Jul 31 21:53:12 <Rikala> waitwhat :3
  836. Jul 31 21:53:17 <Rock> "WHAT!?"
  837. Jul 31 21:53:17 <Alexei> "Other?"
  838. Jul 31 21:53:25 <CounterBeard> =3
  839. Jul 31 21:53:57 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson is hogtied, gagged and blindfolded on the ground. An open safe above her is wide open.
  840. Jul 31 21:54:11 <Alexei> "Rock should I help pursue?"
  841. Jul 31 21:54:24 <Rock> Rock acts shocked for a few seconds and frowns. "Alright, Kinzo!" Rock takes out his Rhyhorn and asks him to sniff the plate out...
  842. Jul 31 21:54:33 <Rock> 1d20 PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
  843. Jul 31 21:54:34 <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE: 1 [1d20=1]

  847. Jul 31 21:54:55 <Rikala> (why don't I have Prob Control yet ;-;)
  848. Jul 31 21:54:58 <CounterBeard> The Rhyhorn looks utterly baffled....This smells like bleach!
  849. Jul 31 21:55:20 <Alexei> (why indeed D:)
  850. Jul 31 21:55:33 * Rikala immediately begins freeing Mrs. Johnson. Removing the gag and blindfold first before working on the bindings.
  851. Jul 31 21:55:35 <Rock> "...no? Frick." Rock puts the plate in his bag and runs off, Rhyhorn running alongside.
  852. Jul 31 21:55:35 <CounterBeard> It..Hoofs?Paws? its nose.
  853. Jul 31 21:56:04 <Rikala> "Just great... we can't seem to get anything done without a mishap..."
  854. Jul 31 21:56:04 <CounterBeard> The crowd from the Tourney is still milling about outside, when they see Rock the applaud and whistle.
  855. Jul 31 21:56:09 * Rock takes out Biter. "Alright, Biter, we're looking for someone on the run. Do you see anyone?"
  856. Jul 31 21:56:15 * Alexei starts following out the door. "I will check on gym leader candidate. I trust you can handle here?"
  857. Jul 31 21:56:43 <Rikala> "Yes I'll be fine. I'll take care of Mrs. Johnson."
  858. Jul 31 21:56:47 <CounterBeard> "Mygosh that was terrible! I-Idon't think I can do this anymore..."
  859. Jul 31 21:56:56 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson seems to be having a breakdown.
  860. Jul 31 21:57:07 * Alexei goes to wherever Henry and Bo are.
  861. Jul 31 21:57:07 <CounterBeard> Henry and Bo' are waiting inside the office still.
  862. Jul 31 21:57:16 <Rikala> 1d20+4 Rikala can CHA this let's calm her down
  863. Jul 31 21:57:16 <DiceMaid-9001> Rikala, Rikala can CHA this let's calm her down: 14 [1d20=10]
  864. Jul 31 21:57:21 <Rikala> (ohdicemaid)
  865. Jul 31 21:57:47 <Alexei> "Well, seem like is problem here. This is why gym leader must have many talent. League can be target by Triface at any time."
  866. Jul 31 21:57:54 <Rikala> "This is why we are here. We will get things taken care of I promise. Are you okay? Nothing badly injured?"
  867. Jul 31 21:58:20 * Rock looks around and yells out, "Has anyone seen a guy with a mask recently!?"
  868. Jul 31 21:58:48 <CounterBeard> People stop and look at Rock...They shake their heads and shrug.."Nah man..."
  869. Jul 31 21:58:55 <Rock> "
  870. Jul 31 21:58:59 <Rock> Thanks!
  871. Jul 31 21:59:29 <Rock> " Rock runs out to the town centre... gah, where is he going? "Biter, you got any clues to where he is?"
  872. Jul 31 21:59:35 <Rikala> (...suddenly it hits me full force who this would be)
  873. Jul 31 21:59:38 <Rikala> (oh sonofabitch)
  874. Jul 31 21:59:43 <CounterBeard> >=3
  875. Jul 31 22:00:09 <CounterBeard> (You have no idea how hard I'm lolin' right now.)
  876. Jul 31 22:00:20 <Alexei> (who? I don't get it)
  877. Jul 31 22:00:25 <CounterBeard> <Idunno who we look for?>
  878. Jul 31 22:00:37 <Rock> "...good question..."
  879. Jul 31 22:00:46 * Rikala pulls out her Pokedex and tries to get a hold of Rock. "Rock. This is Rikala. Are you there?"
  880. Jul 31 22:01:09 <Rock> "...oh, yeah." Rock takes out his Pokedex right when Rikala started. "Yeah! I'm here!"
  881. Jul 31 22:01:43 <Rikala> "...I realize who we are dealing with now. We aren't going to find Jack this way. Come back to the office for now."
  882. Jul 31 22:01:56 <Alexei> "You are realize who?"
  883. Jul 31 22:01:57 <Rikala> (YOU SON OF A BITCH JAAAAAACK)
  884. Jul 31 22:02:15 <Rock> "...alright." Rock trudges his way back to the office.
  885. Jul 31 22:02:15 <Alexei> (oh man, was Alexei right *again* about someone needing to be shot in the face? THREE FOR THREE BITCHES)
  886. Jul 31 22:02:38 <CounterBeard> (Kevin Nave. K.Nave. Knave.)
  887. Jul 31 22:02:40 <CounterBeard> (I leik word puzzles)
  888. Jul 31 22:03:05 <Rikala> (and RIka was the only one that got his name so she would remember c.c)
  889. Jul 31 22:03:05 <Rikala> "...Jack. The man from the swamp. Do you remember him?"
  890. Jul 31 22:03:19 <Alexei> "Man that I say should get shot in face with many arrow but team disagree about?"
  891. Jul 31 22:03:20 <Rock> "Yeah. What about him?"
  892. Jul 31 22:03:33 * Cleff is now known as DamienLunas
  893. Jul 31 22:03:35 <Rock> "Jack was never there."
  894. Jul 31 22:03:42 <Rock> "It was just an illusion."
  895. Jul 31 22:03:45 <Rikala> "You should remember him well Alexei. Remember how he shapeshifted?"
  896. Jul 31 22:04:19 <Rikala> (or did some otherhocuspocus but still JAAAAAAAACK)
  897. Jul 31 22:04:20 <Alexei> "Right. So he is turn into Ms. Johnson then? Well, if wasn't illusion, team would have still try stop from shoot man." Alexei shrugs. "Seem like was right about man after all."
  898. Jul 31 22:04:22 <CounterBeard> <Youmeanmanthatwasthereandnotthere?> The totodile dances from one foot to the other.
  899. Jul 31 22:04:32 <Rock> "Yeah, Biter."
  900. Jul 31 22:04:53 <Rock> "Why? Did you find him?"
  901. Jul 31 22:05:20 <Rikala> "I bet you any amount of money he's already disguised as a civilian and waltzing away right now. It's the only person I can think of that would be able to impersonate Mrs. Johnson so flawlessly."
  902. Jul 31 22:06:18 * Rikala punches the wall in frustration. "...That's the last time I'm civil to someone."
  903. Jul 31 22:06:25 * Alexei starts righting some of the furniture and straightening things. The office should be fabulous. >:( "Well, seem like Alexei has been right all time when say man is bad and desperately need arrow to face. Perhaps listen next time instead of chatter with enemy like old friend."
  904. Jul 31 22:07:08 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson is visably shake but stumbles to the safe that is wide open. "Ohno."
  905. Jul 31 22:07:17 * Rock would help, but instead, Rock walks up to Alexei and gives him a cold hard slap.
  906. Jul 31 22:07:47 <Alexei> "Go ahead. Slap again. Alexei will drink vodka and not feel. Will not make you less wrong."
  907. Jul 31 22:08:22 <Rock> "I know that. So let it be. The past is the past." Rock turned to Mrs. Johnson. "What's wrong?"
  908. Jul 31 22:09:26 <Rikala> "Damnit Jack..." Rikala leans against the wall looking a mix of anger and upset.
  909. Jul 31 22:09:38 <CounterBeard> "We had some badge designs made up...they are gone...But something else is here...another box."
  910. Jul 31 22:09:54 <Rock> "Hm? What's in that box?"
  911. Jul 31 22:09:56 <Alexei> "Yes, but this is what Alexei say first time Rock hesitate shoot man in face. Then next time Alexei say, Rock still is talk with foe as if having prissy afternoon tea. Alexei only want make sure Rock is make sound judgment in future. Can only leave past behind if learn proper from past." Alexei shrugs and downs more vodka before going to meet with Bo and Henry.
  912. Jul 31 22:10:22 <Alexei> "I am apologize, but maybe this good for demonstrate risk of job. Possible you will be target. Make good friend for help protect gym is Alexei suggestion."
  913. Jul 31 22:11:27 <Alexei> (oh before I forget, do we get exp for contestan?)
  914. Jul 31 22:11:41 <CounterBeard> The box is a very simple black crushed velvet rectangle...Inside there are 17 little mask pins...No. Mask Badges.
  915. Jul 31 22:11:52 <CounterBeard> (You do. But after dis.)
  916. Jul 31 22:11:56 <Rock> "..."
  917. Jul 31 22:11:57 <Alexei> (kay)
  918. Jul 31 22:12:07 <Rock> "So, this region already has a league."
  919. Jul 31 22:12:28 * Rikala is too distacted and upset to be paying attention.
  920. Jul 31 22:12:58 <Rock> "...do you mind if I take the box with me?"
  921. Jul 31 22:13:20 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson shakes her head. "N-no. Go right ahead."
  922. Jul 31 22:14:01 * Rock grabs the box and puts it in his bag. "I'm going to go ask someone for advice... actually, Alexei?"
  923. Jul 31 22:14:26 <Rikala> (why do we have no clairsents trollolol)
  924. Jul 31 22:14:28 * Alexei turns around. "Yes?"
  925. Jul 31 22:14:43 <Rock> "You're a drunkard. Where's the nearest bar?"
  926. Jul 31 22:15:00 <Alexei> (Do I know that? :3)
  927. Jul 31 22:15:22 <CounterBeard> (Yes, the one you and Trev were infront of yesterday.)
  928. Jul 31 22:16:03 <Alexei> "Ah, is Rock want drink tonight for celebrate first gym leader? Is good to focus on mission but is also need to celebrate victories. Is easy..." Alexei begins rattling off directions.
  929. Jul 31 22:16:25 <CounterBeard> "I...I think I am going to go home...Cleo come on out of your pokeball and take mama home..." She lets out a little pink adorable squishy ditto.
  930. Jul 31 22:16:44 * Rikala suddenly pipes up. "Mrs. Johnson? I will assure you that the person that did this to you will pay. Dearly." The tone of her voice makes her sound very frightening.
  931. Jul 31 22:16:56 <Rock> Right after that last direction, Rock walked quickly out of the league office and to the bar.
  932. Jul 31 22:17:24 <CounterBeard> "Dit!" =o "Yes dear...Do transform into that smashing rhyhorn...and let's go home..." It quickly does and she rides it home flopped over it..Maybe asleep?
  933. Jul 31 22:18:34 <Rock> "Barkeep?"
  934. Jul 31 22:18:34 <CounterBeard> 1d20 Amusement?
  935. Jul 31 22:18:35 <DiceMaid-9001> CounterBeard, Amusement?: 7 [1d20=7]
  936. Jul 31 22:18:58 * Alexei turns to the remaining occupants of the league office. "...Well, police will have to handle. For now, should go to bar for celebrate."
  937. Jul 31 22:19:01 <CounterBeard> The man at the bar smiles and wave you to a stool Rock. "Take a seat pal, look like you could use it."
  938. Jul 31 22:19:29 <Rikala> "I could use a drink. Lead the way Alexei."
  939. Jul 31 22:19:32 * Rock sits down on the stool. "A glass of water for Biter here, and information about Triface for me."
  940. Jul 31 22:19:42 <Alexei> "Bo, Henry, is want to join?"
  941. Jul 31 22:20:22 <CounterBeard> Both Henry and Bo' stare at the door as you all start leave Mrs. Johnson walks back in a smile on her face. "Sorry that took so lon-Ohgodwhat happened here?!"
  942. Jul 31 22:20:39 <Alexei> (fffffffffffffffffff)
  943. Jul 31 22:21:05 <Rikala> "...No. Hell no. This is not happening." Rikala mind probes whoever the fuck this person is.
  944. Jul 31 22:21:30 * Alexei facepalms. "Rika, this situation is not Alexei specialty. Please figure and explain to me on pokedex later. Am go to bar now. Henry, Bo, come on."
  945. Jul 31 22:21:59 <CounterBeard> The two men stare back as Alexei leads them out.
  946. Jul 31 22:22:30 <Rock> "I need to know about the league that Triface has. Do you know anything about it?"
  947. Jul 31 22:22:56 <Rikala> "I don't even know anymore lady. We came back from the testing and it was trashed and you, or some person disguised as you, or... I DON'T EVEN KNOW ANYMORE. YOU WERE TIED UP IN THE CLOSET AND JUST LEFT."
  948. Jul 31 22:23:07 * Alexei heads to the bar and goes straight for the seat Rock is occupying. "Should have know after 'Mrs. Johnson' leave, other 'Mrs. Johnson' is enter League Office and express surprise. Am think situation too complicated for me and need stiff drink."
  949. Jul 31 22:23:15 <CounterBeard> "Can't say I know anything about no league, hear them Triface guiseare gettin' pretty big."
  950. Jul 31 22:23:36 <Rock> "Thanks. And that glass of water?"
  951. Jul 31 22:24:08 <CounterBeard> He slides it down and four shots of Fabulous~ Vodka
  952. Jul 31 22:24:35 * Rock takes the glass of water and puts it in front of him for Biter to drink.
  953. Jul 31 22:24:37 <CounterBeard> "I was in the..Closet? What??"
  954. Jul 31 22:24:41 * Alexei takes two and passes the other two to Bo and Henry. "Rock, is hear me?"
  955. Jul 31 22:25:15 <Rock> "Yeah. I'll go to the office after I give Biter the drink."
  956. Jul 31 22:26:14 * Rikala is still reading mind because fuck what do. "We are just as confused as you are. First we go out and have a contest with you as a judge. Then we come in here and find you tied up saying you had been overpowered by Kevin and had been there for hours. Then you rode away on a Ditto Rhyhorn and now you just came back. I'm not even sure this is reality anymore."
  957. Jul 31 22:26:40 <Rikala> (mfw might have just let Jack escape RIGHT UNDER OUR WATCH)
  958. Jul 31 22:26:53 <Rikala> (goddamnit my mind has imploded into a million pieces)
  959. Jul 31 22:27:09 <Alexei> (it makes sense given how derpy the party is! You're the smart one! XD)
  960. Jul 31 22:27:30 <Rikala> (well if it was him he was acting in his thoughts too;-;)
  961. Jul 31 22:27:39 <Alexei> (clever guy)
  962. Jul 31 22:28:10 <CounterBeard> "I..Well. I...Did I take anything?"
  963. Jul 31 22:28:12 * Rock feels like he has waited too long, downing the glass of water before putting it down on the stool. "He'll pay for it." he says, pointing at Alexei before heading back to the office.
  964. Jul 31 22:28:53 <Alexei> "Rock, is not appropriate leave team member to pay for bar tab. Start tab for me, will track down irresponsible team member for make pay later."
  965. Jul 31 22:29:17 <Rock> (inb4 water is free)
  966. Jul 31 22:29:35 <Alexei> (inb4 Alexei is starting the god damned tab anyway because he has only 125p to his name)
  967. Jul 31 22:29:35 <CounterBeard> "No worries. Fellas."
  968. Jul 31 22:30:09 * Rock hits the office and... "Oh, look. Mrs. Johnson. Again."
  969. Jul 31 22:30:27 <CounterBeard> "Hello Mr. Batora...I..Am confused..."
  970. Jul 31 22:30:34 <Rock> "..."
  971. Jul 31 22:30:42 * Alexei sighs and leads Henry and Bo away. "Should probably head to office. Sorry for cut celebration short. Will get all business done and celebrate proper later."
  972. Jul 31 22:30:43 <Rock> "..."
  973. Jul 31 22:30:51 <Rock> "How did you know my name?"
  974. Jul 31 22:31:37 <Rikala> "No. You didn't. Oh hey Rock. Look it's SOMEBODY I'M NOT EVEN SURE."
  975. Jul 31 22:32:00 <Rock> "Rikala. Let her answer the question first."
  976. Jul 31 22:32:25 <Rikala> (i'm still mind reading if it's relevant)
  977. Jul 31 22:32:27 <CounterBeard> "Because our employer Douglas Fir informed me you would be arriving? Because of you all we had to change our plans for the selection process...?"
  978. Jul 31 22:32:47 <Rock> "..."
  979. Jul 31 22:32:55 <Rock> "Rikala. OUT OF THE OFFICE."
  980. Jul 31 22:33:05 * Rock draws his sword.
  981. Jul 31 22:33:13 <Rikala> "...What in the hell are you doing?"
  982. Jul 31 22:33:19 <CounterBeard> "MR. BATORA WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
  983. Jul 31 22:34:05 <Rock> "Heheheh. I think I figured it out." AndRock made a slash at the supposed clone.

  989. Jul 31 22:34:23 <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, 3d20+6+6+2+5: 55 [3d20=15,15,6]
  990. Jul 31 22:34:42 <CounterBeard> And she is KO's
  991. Jul 31 22:34:47 <CounterBeard> er KO'd
  992. Jul 31 22:34:51 <Rock> "..."
  993. Jul 31 22:35:09 <Rock> "Now, you wonder why I reached this conclusion, right?"
  994. Jul 31 22:35:41 * Rikala is just kind of looking in awe at what just happened. "I'm not even sure if I should be shocked or not. I'm still not sure who this is."
  995. Jul 31 22:36:04 <Rock> "...and this is the part I don't want you to tell the others about."
  996. Jul 31 22:36:09 <Rikala> (Alexei will be proud if you actually got a Triface member)
  997. Jul 31 22:36:12 <Rock> "I should have known."
  998. Jul 31 22:36:23 <Alexei> (...dear god I step away for a minute and this is what happens?)
  999. Jul 31 22:36:32 <Rock> "That, this. Is the real Mrs. Johnson."
  1000. Jul 31 22:36:34 * Alexei barges in with Henry and Bo in tow...and is utterly confused at the scene.
  1001. Jul 31 22:36:57 <CounterBeard> The two men stare at Mrs. Johnson...and then each other. and then back to Mrs. Johnson...
  1002. Jul 31 22:37:17 <CounterBeard> "Uh. Mr. Bo'?"
  1003. Jul 31 22:37:24 <Alexei> "...Rock. Seem like you are bad at make decision of who need stab in face. Should leave decision for Alexei next time."
  1004. Jul 31 22:37:50 <CounterBeard> "Yeah, Henry?" "This is going to be quite the job." "Yep."
  1005. Jul 31 22:37:55 <Rock> "...yeah, sorry. Just making sure this wasn't him. And it isn't. You two let the Triface member go."
  1006. Jul 31 22:37:58 <Rikala> "To be fair I'm still not even sure who that is."
  1007. Jul 31 22:38:12 <Rikala> "Apparently he is though..."
  1008. Jul 31 22:38:35 <Rock> "No."
  1009. Jul 31 22:38:53 <Rock> "I just confirmed that this Mrs. Johnson ISN'T who I first met up with."
  1010. Jul 31 22:39:14 <Alexei> "So was Triface member pose as Mrs. Johnson for whole time..."
  1011. Jul 31 22:39:22 * Garlyle (4b9d4290@sux-D7D2E6A7.mibbit.com) has joined #TalentScouts
  1012. Jul 31 22:39:32 <CounterBeard> (HI GAR! Ready for mindfuck?)
  1013. Jul 31 22:39:39 <Rock> "...which means there's a real Kevin."
  1014. Jul 31 22:39:39 <Alexei> (OKAY who wants the awesome job of explaining what happned to Gar?)
  1015. Jul 31 22:39:48 <Garlyle> (........Uh)
  1016. Jul 31 22:39:51 <Rikala> "...I need a drink. A strong one. Alexei do you have something?"
  1017. Jul 31 22:40:00 * Alexei hands over his flask. "Always."
  1018. Jul 31 22:40:24 <Rock> "The Mrs. Johnson I met flirted with me. I should have known something was up then."
  1019. Jul 31 22:40:37 <CounterBeard> (I'm sorry by the way I am still laughing at it all. I am a terrible GM.)
  1020. Jul 31 22:40:39 * Rikala chugs down a significant portion of what is in the flask. "...Yeah okay that helped... I think." She hands it back.
  1021. Jul 31 22:41:03 <Rock> "But just in case..."
  1022. Jul 31 22:41:06 <Garlyle> (If... someone wants to PM me or something with a summary that'd be great because clearly contest is not happenan)
  1023. Jul 31 22:41:09 * Garlyle is now known as Savage
  1024. Jul 31 22:41:09 <Alexei> (god damnit Yoshi please take Clairsentient or something with dispel illusion ;_;)
  1025. Jul 31 22:41:12 * Rock searches through the woman's pockets.
  1026. Jul 31 22:41:31 <Rikala> (butbut earth shaker D:)
  1027. Jul 31 22:41:35 <CounterBeard> Rock Finds~
  1028. Jul 31 22:41:43 <CounterBeard> Nothing. She might have some stuff in her purse though.
  1029. Jul 31 22:42:00 <Rock> "...oh, wait. Rikala, can you look through her purse for me?"
  1030. Jul 31 22:42:22 * Mons has quit (Quit: whoops)
  1031. Jul 31 22:42:25 <Rikala> "...Yeah sure." It floats up form the ground and into Rikala's hands.
  1032. Jul 31 22:42:42 <Rikala> She rummages through it without much thought.
  1033. Jul 31 22:42:45 <Rock> "...they're calling me out."
  1034. Jul 31 22:42:52 <CounterBeard> Rika finds...A wallet some makeup stuff a bottle of water...
  1035. Jul 31 22:43:10 <CounterBeard> And that's it really.
  1036. Jul 31 22:43:30 * Rikala opens up the wallet to look through it for some kind of identification or something.
  1037. Jul 31 22:43:42 <Rock> (My detective skills are going "that bottle of water is out of place".)
  1038. Jul 31 22:44:04 <Rikala> (...why I see girls with bottled water in their purses all the time)
  1039. Jul 31 22:44:24 <Rikala> (...oh)
  1040. Jul 31 22:44:24 <Rock> (If you're going on an extended trip that takes longer than ten minutes, yes.)
  1041. Jul 31 22:44:26 <CounterBeard> It has Mrs. Johnson's ID and her credit cards and some Pokke and a picture of her Husband and herself.
  1042. Jul 31 22:44:49 <Rock> (However... you forget what kind of town this is.)
  1043. Jul 31 22:45:35 <Rikala> "Well this is definitely her purse and belongings. Has her ID and a picture of her and her hus...band.... Wasn't he supposed to be coming here forever ago with soda?"
  1044. Jul 31 22:45:40 <Rock> "..."
  1045. Jul 31 22:45:49 <Rock> "..."
  1046. Jul 31 22:45:59 <Rikala> "...and for that matter she didn't bring soda either and she said she was going to get it."
  1047. Jul 31 22:46:04 <Rock> "That reminds me. I've never seen her husband."
  1048. Jul 31 22:46:20 <Rikala> The wallet floats towards Rock.
  1049. Jul 31 22:46:36 * Rock looks at the picture...
  1050. Jul 31 22:46:36 * Alexei shrugs. "Might have met yesterday. But was drunk and not remember."
  1051. Jul 31 22:46:47 <Rikala> (Why can't we solve this with a music and dance battle of Which one is the real one?)
  1052. Jul 31 22:46:56 <Rikala> (;-;)
  1053. Jul 31 22:47:21 <Rock> (I can tell you that this is the real Mrs. Johnson, lying KO'd.)
  1054. Jul 31 22:47:45 <Savage> (Then say that IC)
  1055. Jul 31 22:47:56 <Rock> (I did. Many, many times.)
  1056. Jul 31 22:48:11 <Rock> <Rock> "...yeah, sorry. Just making sure this wasn't him. And it isn't. You two let the Triface member go."
  1057. Jul 31 22:49:07 <Rikala> "Well you can have the job of explaining to her why she wakes up in a hospital Rock."
  1058. Jul 31 22:49:37 * Rock gives Rikala the wallet back. "I'm heading somewhere. I'll do that later." And DASH AWAY! TO THE SWAMP!
  1059. Jul 31 22:49:49 <CounterBeard> (Ohgodwhat?)
  1060. Jul 31 22:50:55 * Alexei looks down at the unconscious Mrs. Johnson and takes another swig of vodka. "Should call police then. And ask for advice on how deal with shapeshifter."
  1061. Jul 31 22:51:33 * Rock doesn't actually go to the swamp but the outside of town. "Biter... I acted too quickly again, didn't I."
  1062. Jul 31 22:52:09 <Rikala> "...My telepathy wasn't all that helpful. Whoever the imposter was was acting in their thoughts flawlessly... as well as in person."
  1063. Jul 31 22:52:12 <CounterBeard> <Maybe...But you thought it was the right thing to do! Mr. Alexei wouldasaid do it. She is okay just sleeping!>
  1064. Jul 31 22:53:01 <Rikala> "...I'm starting to lose faith that we can handle this..."
  1065. Jul 31 22:53:08 <CounterBeard> <Just need to calm down in badbadsituations!>
  1066. Jul 31 22:53:14 <Rock> "That's good..." Rock takes out the box. "Seventeen bages..." Rock takes out the Pokedex with his other hand. "Seventeen Pokemon types."
  1067. Jul 31 22:53:20 <Rock> badges*
  1068. Jul 31 22:53:47 <Rock> "I think it's pretty obvious that Triface is running a league of their own..."
  1069. Jul 31 22:54:07 <CounterBeard> <Maybe...But why would they tell? Wouldn't they wanta Seekrit?>
  1070. Jul 31 22:54:30 <Alexei> "Then we report to Doug. Request help for deal with shapeshifter and psychic."
  1071. Jul 31 22:55:12 <Rock> "...what do you mean by that, Biter?"
  1072. Jul 31 22:55:48 <Rikala> "...Right. I can't call myself a Tough Trainer if I give in now. We just have to meet their tricks with full force."
  1073. Jul 31 22:55:59 <CounterBeard> <Idunno. If they had alla these..Jim Leaders why they tell? Why no keep suprise?>
  1074. Jul 31 22:56:30 <Rock> "Well, maybe they wanted to be official. Like us."
  1075. Jul 31 22:56:40 <CounterBeard> <I like suprises!>
  1076. Jul 31 22:56:50 <CounterBeard> <But...I thought they no like us?>
  1077. Jul 31 22:57:05 * Alexei nods and takes another swig of vodka. "And Rock should take advice from Alexei for choose who stab with sword. Is not very good at choose himself." he starts looking around for a phone to use.
  1078. Jul 31 22:57:08 <Rock> "Haha. It's hard to keep a surprise from you, though."
  1079. Jul 31 22:57:35 <CounterBeard> <Aww but I like to know stuff too! I dunno what I like better though...>
  1080. Jul 31 22:58:03 <Rock> "Haha... so, why do you think they left this box, here?"
  1081. Jul 31 22:58:17 <Rock> "Do they want us to use these badges instead or something?"
  1082. Jul 31 22:58:34 <Rock> "..."
  1083. Jul 31 22:58:49 <Rock> "They replaced badge designs with these badges!"
  1084. Jul 31 22:59:00 <Rock> "OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD."
  1085. Jul 31 22:59:06 <CounterBeard> <Idunno. Maybe-what?>
  1086. Jul 31 22:59:24 <Rock> "I think I got something."
  1087. Jul 31 22:59:38 * Rock stands up and runs back, recalling Kinzo on the way back.
  1088. Jul 31 22:59:42 <CounterBeard> There is one phone still in working order Alexei. It was hiding under a drawer.
  1089. Jul 31 23:00:27 * Alexei dials the number for the police, then motions Rika over. "Alexei language not good, should explain to police for me."
  1090. Jul 31 23:00:58 * Rock then stops. "Actually, is there a way to call someone on this Pokedex?"
  1091. Jul 31 23:01:02 <Rikala> "...I don't even fully understand what happened but sure I'll try."
  1092. Jul 31 23:01:53 <CounterBeard> (Nope just shortwave radio to its brother and sisters)
  1093. Jul 31 23:02:21 * Rock just knocks on the first residental house he sees.
  1094. Jul 31 23:02:29 <CounterBeard> Some one picks up the phone on the other end Rika "Estuan police station. If this is another prank about some sorta waterleak I swear to god..."
  1095. Jul 31 23:02:58 <CounterBeard> A young man answers the door. "Uh, hi."
  1096. Jul 31 23:03:09 <Rock> "Hi. Can I borrow your phone?"
  1097. Jul 31 23:04:00 <CounterBeard> "Uuuuuuuuuh. yeah okay sure." He hands it over Rock. Staring at you.
  1098. Jul 31 23:04:19 * Rock picks up the phone and dials Doug.
  1099. Jul 31 23:04:19 <Rikala> "No. This is actually serious. The Pokemon League HQ has been ransacked and..." Rikala does her best to go into full details of what has happened thus far. "...So we'll need an ambulance sent too for Mrs. Johnson."
  1100. Jul 31 23:05:16 <Alexei> As Rika is calling the cops, Alexei turns to Henry and Bo, if they're still here. "So, this is what job of gym leader is like. Do you have question?"
  1101. Jul 31 23:05:18 <CounterBeard> Mrs. Johnson moans as she tries to right herself "Ohgod. We'll send one and a black and white right away! You said the League office right?"
  1102. Jul 31 23:05:30 <CounterBeard> Both men shake their head at Alexei.
  1103. Jul 31 23:05:44 <CounterBeard> A voice answers you Rock 'Yes this is Douglas Fir?"
  1104. Jul 31 23:06:11 <Rock> "Hey. It's Rock. Listen, we have a few problems. But first, I want to ask you a question."
  1105. Jul 31 23:06:15 <Rikala> "Yes sir. I don't think Mrs. Johnson is in critical health but please be quick. Thank you."
  1106. Jul 31 23:06:31 <CounterBeard> "Roger."
  1107. Jul 31 23:06:50 <Alexei> "Recommendation is find trainer to take as apprentice, is way for keep gym safer." Alexei turns to Rika. "Rika, is there way for teach man not let psychic read mind? Would be good for all gym leader and apprentice for learn such skill."
  1108. Jul 31 23:06:50 <CounterBeard> 'Well Rock, go right ahead. I would like to knwo about the problems asap though."
  1109. Jul 31 23:07:04 <Rock> "Does Triface have a league of their own?"
  1110. Jul 31 23:08:44 <CounterBeard> "Not that we are aware of. We do know they are trying to get some form of group together. As I mentioned earlier."
  1111. Jul 31 23:09:24 <Rock> "...then why do I have 17 mask badges staring at me?"
  1112. Jul 31 23:09:32 <CounterBeard> Savage wanders back to the office after seeing off Timmy to his fanboat home. And enters the scene...?
  1113. Jul 31 23:09:55 <CounterBeard> "You have what? This. What?"
  1114. Jul 31 23:10:13 * Savage was actually going to be standing behind Rock but, okay, that works too.
  1115. Jul 31 23:10:33 <CounterBeard> (Either or work wasn't sure if you were still around D=)
  1116. Jul 31 23:11:07 <Rock> "17 Mask Badges."
  1117. Jul 31 23:11:11 <Rikala> "Well... there's a trick to it... I could try to teach something like that but I'm admittedly not able to do it myself..."
  1118. Jul 31 23:11:50 * Savage has snuck up on Rock then and is just standing behind him. And probably weirding the actual resident of the house out some, but he's being quiet.
  1119. Jul 31 23:12:27 * Alexei turns back to Henry and Bo. "Well, trick is exist. We will call League and arrange for man to give lesson in learn protect from Psychic."
  1120. Jul 31 23:12:29 <CounterBeard> "This...No. We have had reports of training camps. Some form of military structure they were developing. What intel we gathered called them 'Knights'."
  1121. Jul 31 23:12:47 <CounterBeard> "Right. So these people Triface do this often?"
  1122. Jul 31 23:13:09 <CounterBeard> The young man staaares at Savage.
  1123. Jul 31 23:13:47 <Alexei> "Yes, is organization oppose to Kushva make glorious pokemon league."
  1124. Jul 31 23:14:12 * Damien (DamienLuna@sux-27BF3D1.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) has joined #TalentScouts
  1125. Jul 31 23:14:13 <CounterBeard> "If. No. No. That would mean there would be a brigade for every type." Doug mumbles almost to himself.
  1126. Jul 31 23:14:26 * DamienLunas has quit (Connection reset by peer)
  1127. Jul 31 23:14:42 <Rock> "Maybe." Rock turns back to the phone. "I see. Alright. Thank you very much. I'll tell you the rest of the story after we figure out what the heck is going on." Rock hangs up, thanks the man, and continues on his way... and does not see Savage at all.
  1128. Jul 31 23:14:46 * Savage stares back and waves. As best he can. Gabbery and Wotter are asleep on his shoulders after being knocked out, and are busy resting and recovering.
  1129. Jul 31 23:15:13 * Savage would find that difficult for Rock to miss him he was practically breathing down his neck.
  1130. Jul 31 23:15:24 <CounterBeard> "I see. Then I may have to make some arrangements for my Gym. Some, precautions as it where."
  1131. Jul 31 23:15:45 <Rock> Rock is too distracted.... and is now heading back to the town edge.
  1132. Jul 31 23:16:04 <CounterBeard> Shortly EMT's arrive for Mrs. J and take here away and a young officer, who looks almost identical to the one you met just a few days ago greets you at the door.
  1133. Jul 31 23:16:19 <Alexei> "Is what Alexei is say." he continues straightening up around the room. "If have friend who is fellow strong trainer, should ask for help at first before everything is establish."
  1134. Jul 31 23:16:40 <Savage> "...Uh...?" Savage hollers out to him when he walks past. "Rock?"
  1135. Jul 31 23:17:05 <Rock> "...sorry, Savage."
  1136. Jul 31 23:17:16 <Rock> Rock keeps his gaze away from Savage.
  1137. Jul 31 23:17:28 <Savage> "...Did you kill someone again?"
  1138. Jul 31 23:17:37 <Rikala> "...It feels like we have an incident in every town we are at at this point..." Rikala gives a small smile to the officer. "Thanks for the hasty arrival."
  1139. Jul 31 23:17:40 * Savage frowns. Totally blurting that out while still on the stranger's front yard by the way.
  1140. Jul 31 23:17:57 <Rock> "No. I didn't."
  1141. Jul 31 23:18:48 <CounterBeard> The boy just stares at you both as Rock walks away.
  1142. Jul 31 23:19:04 <CounterBeard> The officer coughs getting Rika and Alexei's attention.
  1143. Jul 31 23:19:30 <Rikala> (Rika already acknowledge him but okay xD)
  1144. Jul 31 23:19:33 <Rock> "Savage. Can you tell me something?"
  1145. Jul 31 23:19:39 <Savage> "...Well, you're mopey about something~" Savage follows him a little. "What?"
  1146. Jul 31 23:19:48 <Alexei> "What is officer need? Should speak to Rika, can explain better than I."
  1147. Jul 31 23:20:06 <Rock> "Would you forgive me for the things I said when... he died?"
  1148. Jul 31 23:20:28 * Rikala approaches the officer and forces a small smile. "Sorry for such a dilemna..."
  1149. Jul 31 23:21:17 <CounterBeard> When you get a closer look he looks IDENTICAL to the one you met. "No problem Miss. Names Jensen, what happened here?"
  1150. Jul 31 23:21:58 <Rikala> (please don't tell me there are clones in the force now ;-;)
  1151. Jul 31 23:22:08 <Rikala> (or is this more of an Officer Jenny phenomenon)
  1152. Jul 31 23:22:09 <Savage> "...'course not. You killed my little brother; I'm not gonna forgive that," Savage is frowny... for a few moments. "But!"
  1153. Jul 31 23:22:15 <CounterBeard> (Nah, just strong familial resemblence)
  1154. Jul 31 23:22:22 <Rock> "..."
  1155. Jul 31 23:22:40 <CounterBeard> (Maybe =3)
  1156. Jul 31 23:22:44 <Alexei> (ffffff)
  1157. Jul 31 23:23:10 <Rock> "But what?"
  1158. Jul 31 23:23:44 <Rikala> "Well..." Rikala goes into full details of what happened from the moment they left to start the trials to before the officer arrived. Because I'm not typing that up a million times. "...So you'll understand if we are a bit confused about details."
  1159. Jul 31 23:23:53 * Alexei sighs and takes another swig of vodka, giving Rika a look.
  1160. Jul 31 23:23:54 * UboaServ has changed the topic to: CLONES?!
  1161. Jul 31 23:25:04 <CounterBeard> The detective scraches his chin..."Not gonna lie miss...That dosen't make any damn sense...I'll see what I can put on the report but...I'll see...For now I'll just mark down the injuries as accidental and case of mistaken identity."
  1162. Jul 31 23:25:05 <Savage> "But, what's done is done, right? I think stuff like vengeance is silly, really." He leans back a bit - or as much as he can without throwing the Pokemon resting on him. "So, y'know. It's about what happens from here on... I guess?"
  1163. Jul 31 23:26:10 <Rock> "...yeah. But the problem is... I said some things to Triface right after that. You didn't hear them, but... and now they're calling me out on my words."
  1164. Jul 31 23:26:19 * Alexei continues tidying up the place and stops to pick up a pen, tapping it lightly on his head as he ponders something.
  1165. Jul 31 23:26:58 <Rikala> "Thanks detective... I know it sounds pretty crazy but Triface has been pulling out all of these kinds of tricks on us ever since we started work."
  1166. Jul 31 23:27:54 <CounterBeard> "So it seems...Have a nice night..."
  1167. Jul 31 23:28:29 <Rock> "17 badges... 17 forces I have to fight."
  1168. Jul 31 23:28:32 <Savage> "...Uh, well, how can that matter to me if I don't know what those words are then?" Savage gives him a baffled look.
  1169. Jul 31 23:28:39 <Rikala> "You as well."
  1170. Jul 31 23:29:15 <CounterBeard> The detective nods and rides out.
  1171. Jul 31 23:30:00 * Alexei turns to Rika. "Was try get attention for use telepathy. Officer look just like other. But maybe is be too paranoid. Is not good suspect everyone..."
  1172. Jul 31 23:30:00 <Rock> "...you should go back to the others."
  1173. Jul 31 23:30:46 <CounterBeard> <Heyhey. Can I seethe shinies?>
  1174. Jul 31 23:30:49 <Savage> "So should you, if something's happened, 'cause it seems like it did," Savage tilts his head. "And, y'know, if there's something on your mind, just spit it out."
  1175. Jul 31 23:31:04 <Rikala> "...It's hard not to be suspicious of near everyone after a day like today... sorry I didn't pick up on it Alexei I'm exhausted. What are you going to do?"
  1176. Jul 31 23:31:28 <Rock> "Oh, sure." Rock sits down on the ground andbrings the box up to Biter.
  1177. Jul 31 23:32:22 <CounterBeard> The six inch totodile grabs each badge and looks at it. <Ilikethem.>
  1178. Jul 31 23:32:29 <CounterBeard> Savage Rock Perception time plz.
  1179. Jul 31 23:32:35 <Rock> 1d20-2
  1180. Jul 31 23:32:37 <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, 1d20-2: 2 [1d20=4]
  1181. Jul 31 23:32:42 <Savage> "...? Hey, hey, little nephew," Savage grins down at him, as though he suddenly had an idea
  1182. Jul 31 23:32:43 <Alexei> "Am hope can collect paycheck and bonus for establish first gym, then have drink for celebration."
  1183. Jul 31 23:32:50 * Rock is too busy staring at Biter.
  1184. Jul 31 23:32:51 <Savage> 1d20-3 >implying wisdom
  1185. Jul 31 23:32:51 <DiceMaid-9001> Savage, >implying wisdom: 10 [1d20=13]
  1186. Jul 31 23:33:26 <CounterBeard> Savage notices when Biter takes a badge out there is something under them, under the case.
  1187. Jul 31 23:34:02 <Rock> (I swear, if Biter turns to goo Doctor Who style, I'm totally going to rage.)
  1188. Jul 31 23:34:25 * Savage gets distracted from his brilliant plan by the shiny trinkets--no, wait... actually...
  1189. Jul 31 23:34:27 <Rikala> "That sounds good to me. Funny how we can think a lot alike. We should keep the spirits up at times like these after all."
  1190. Jul 31 23:34:42 <CounterBeard> (Wha? GooGatr?)
  1191. Jul 31 23:34:44 * Alexei nods in agreement. "This is big issue, but cannot solve right now. Best thing do is show that League will still celebrate its victories."
  1192. Jul 31 23:34:45 <Savage> "Hey, my little nephew, can I borrow that box for a second?"
  1193. Jul 31 23:35:04 <CounterBeard> <Uh huh. Can I lookit these ones onna ground though?>
  1194. Jul 31 23:35:28 <CounterBeard> Biter poitns to raikou and a slowking.
  1195. Jul 31 23:35:39 * Rikala gives a genuine smile for once and grabs Alexei's hand to drag him out. "Then let's go get the others and celebrate!"
  1196. Jul 31 23:36:20 <Alexei> "Wait, Alexei is need paycheck first! Spent all money while drunk out of mind yesterday! Is why start tab at bar instead of pay immediately!"
  1197. Jul 31 23:37:15 <Savage> "Sure," he nods, only briefly looking at the badges, gently taking the box from biter and starting to inspect it. Yeah, he's pretty sure this part can be removed...
  1198. Jul 31 23:37:18 <Rikala> "...Oh right I'm kind of strapped for cash too." Rikala stops and stomps at the ground in frustration.
  1199. Jul 31 23:37:47 * Rock is in a haze.
  1200. Jul 31 23:37:53 <CounterBeard> The box opens up further...Several sheets of paper ar there. One of them a hand written note.
  1201. Jul 31 23:38:36 * Alexei starts rummaging through his pockets. "Hm is have thing for teach pokemon move, but is not fabulous move. Can sell for money for vodka..."
  1202. Jul 31 23:38:49 <Savage> "Found it~" Rock grins, starting to read over things. -Now- he's extra curious what's going on.
  1203. Jul 31 23:39:36 * Rock looks over to Savage, apparently grinning. "What did you find?"
  1204. Jul 31 23:40:15 * Savage herps and derps and reassumes a proper identity what how did he do that
  1205. Jul 31 23:40:22 <Rikala> "I could pitch in what I have. From the taste I had earlier you buy the best vodka, and today is definitely a vodka day..."
  1206. Jul 31 23:41:10 <Alexei> "Is best wait for paycheck I am think. Would not want to disappoint new gym leader by run out of money while celebrate." Alexei gestures towards Henry.
  1207. Jul 31 23:42:29 * Rikala throws up her hands frustrated. "Ahh! I swear the next time Triface decides to try and ruin my day there will be no way to stop the fury of my whip!"
  1208. Jul 31 23:43:14 <Rock> "So, what does the note say?"
  1209. Jul 31 23:43:25 <Savage> "Just... some stuff~!" Savage sticks his tongue out, hiding it from Rock's eyes. "I get to look first~"
  1210. Jul 31 23:43:44 <Rock> "...can't we look together?"
  1211. Jul 31 23:44:52 <Savage> "Well, you should've seen it already 'cause you had the box before, didn't you?" he's teasing, like a kid, but is still trying to read through it.
  1212. Jul 31 23:45:32 <Rock> "Aw. You know me. I'm not careful enough. Now, come on. Lemme see."
  1213. Jul 31 23:46:53 <Savage> "...Oh, I see--wait," Savage has scrunched up the piece of paper quickly. "This isn't -quite- for us."
  1214. Jul 31 23:47:10 <Rock> "...then who is it for?"
  1215. Jul 31 23:47:34 <CounterBeard> (Sorry I type slow/getting into bite sized irc bits.)
  1216. Jul 31 23:47:37 <Savage> "Where's Rikala?" Savage blinks up at him. "It's for her."
  1217. Jul 31 23:47:54 <Rock> "..."
  1218. Jul 31 23:48:09 * Rock picks up his Pokedex. "Do you want me to show you how to use the radio?"
  1219. Jul 31 23:48:16 <Alexei> "Henry, Bo, is best you get rest for now. Come to office tomorrow and we will get paperwork done for gym." Alexei turns to Rika. "Is probably good idea for get other league office person here to arrange for gym. Must not let events of today prevent business from happen."
  1220. Jul 31 23:48:44 <Savage> "I'll just forget," Savage starts collecting the badges again and setting them into place, before shutting the box. He probably has to convince Biter to let go of one or two in the process.
  1221. Jul 31 23:48:52 <CounterBeard> Henry and Bo' nod. They were having a conversation about how best to move his Combee hives and where they would be best kept.
  1222. Jul 31 23:49:29 <CounterBeard> <Awww I like the shinies though! Can I play with them later?> =3c
  1223. Jul 31 23:49:36 * Rock presses the radio button. "Rikala. Meet us on the way back to the swamp. We have a letter for you, from..."
  1224. Jul 31 23:49:51 <Rock> "Yeah, sure, Bier. Who's the letter from, Savage?"
  1225. Jul 31 23:50:34 <Rock> Biter*
  1226. Jul 31 23:51:13 <Rikala> "...What?" Rikala grabs her pokedex from her purse and responds. "What the heck do you mean a letter for me?"
  1227. Jul 31 23:51:40 <Rock> "A letter for you. What else could I mean. Savage found it in the badge box."
  1228. Jul 31 23:52:02 * Alexei can't hear the other side of the conversation and mutters. "Maybe is love letter from Will."
  1229. Jul 31 23:52:13 <Savage> "I guess Rikala's made a friend," Savage just grins.
  1230. Jul 31 23:52:24 <Rock> "...from a friend."
  1231. Jul 31 23:52:51 <Rock> Rock gives Savage a confused look. "From Will? Jack?"
  1232. Jul 31 23:53:22 * Rikala is just completely baffled. "...Might as well get the team back together... but who the heck would send me a letter?" She starts to go out the door.
  1233. Jul 31 23:53:34 <Rock> "No idea."
  1234. Jul 31 23:53:57 * Alexei follows her and uses the pokedex to locate Rock and Savage.
  1235. Jul 31 23:55:12 * Savage is sitting there with the box and the letters outside of it, waiting.
  1236. Jul 31 23:55:32 * Rock is waiting, without a clue on what's going on.
  1237. Jul 31 23:55:57 <Rikala> "...It's been a long day and I'm confused. What is going on NOW?"
  1238. Jul 31 23:56:13 <Rock> "Savage, give her the letter."
  1239. Jul 31 23:57:09 <Savage> "You've got letters from Jack~" Savage finally gives up the name, grinning. "He says it's information about Triface's... uh... he made it sound like they were the leaders of the really mean parts or something."
  1240. Jul 31 23:57:36 <Rock> "..."
  1241. Jul 31 23:57:44 * Savage offers up the letters to Rikala.
  1242. Jul 31 23:58:09 * Rikala snatches up the letter immediately looking a mix of intrigued, upset, and... well a whole bunch of things. "Where the heck did this even come from?"
  1243. Jul 31 23:58:28 <Savage> "It was hiding in the box~" Savage grins, as if proud for finding it.
  1244. Jul 31 23:58:36 <Rock> "Can you read it aloud?"
  1245. Jul 31 23:58:38 * Alexei taps his foot. "Is not matter where comes from, is matter now find if new gym leader is in danger."
  1246. Jul 31 23:58:58 <Savage> "Ehhh... so serious," Savage sighs.
  1247. Jul 31 23:59:19 <Alexei> "Is matter of life and death. Of course is serious. Would not want Henry die before even start job."
  1248. Aug 01 00:00:06 * Rikala waves everyone off for a moment while she reads. "Just whose side is he even on...? Oh whatever fine..." She then starts reading the letter aloud to everyone.
  1249. Aug 01 00:00:26 <Rikala> (I'll let beard copypasta or such :3)
  1250. Aug 01 00:00:37 <CounterBeard> "My apologies for the way this missive was placed into your hands Ms. Cossen. But it was the easiest way that I could achieve both of my missions. I have included what my superiors have willed me to. The set of Knight Emblems.
  1251. Aug 01 00:00:51 <CounterBeard> Each the personal Symbol of one of our Knight Errants the leaders of our forces. I have included a breif summary of former strong holds of the former milirary that are currently set to be investigated by our orginization. We are unsure of the contents of these bunkers.
  1252. Aug 01 00:01:01 <CounterBeard> But I am sur eyou would find them interesting. I shall try to keep in much better touch. The Knave Jack."
  1253. Aug 01 00:01:44 <Rock> "...so they are calling us out."
  1254. Aug 01 00:02:43 <Alexei> "...Or are set trap by lead us to stronghold. Is not can tell right now."
  1255. Aug 01 00:02:53 <Rikala> "...I'm sure he had a great time laughing his way out after we let him go right under our noses. Rrrgh... just what is his game?"
  1256. Aug 01 00:03:04 <Rock> "...I'll take my chances."
  1257. Aug 01 00:03:58 * Savage lazes back a little, on... whatever happens to be behind him. This is probably just him laying down on the grass or something.
  1258. Aug 01 00:04:41 * Rock takes the box and puts it back on his bag. "I'm not asking you to follow, but if you want, I can't stop you. Where are the locations?"
  1259. Aug 01 00:04:46 <Rikala> "The first time we ran into him he did tell me they had groups of extremists splitting from the original intent of Triface. I had no idea they could have gotten this big. Maybe someone thinks we are the best bet to getting rid of them I don't know..."
  1260. Aug 01 00:05:32 <Alexei> "Or they are use us for gain power in internal struggle. Have seen tactic used in civil war before. Is very effective. Should not assume anything for now and act with caution."
  1261. Aug 01 00:06:22 <Rikala> "Well either way... I wouldn't mind introducing some Triface members to my whip. They've been getting a bit too irritating for my tastes..."
  1262. Aug 01 00:06:58 <Rock> "Rikala. The locations?"
  1263. Aug 01 00:07:22 <CounterBeard> aaaaaaaand we'll call that /session.
