	Lonnie: 	(testing testing one two)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Hihi!
Kaorin Sakura: 	Maptools didn't notify me of this.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Luckily, I had the sound on.
	Amethyst: 	(testing testing again... need to make/add a portrait, hadn't done a good one yet.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Ahhh, okay.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Dan texted me. He's on the road.
	Amethyst: 	(Okay. And I know Ava's likely gonna be at least somewhat late.)
	Amethyst: 	(And... he should not be texting people while on the road. >.>)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Maybe he was at a red light?
	Amethyst: 	(Maybe! While we wait I'll work on a portrait for a bit.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	And I will sprite boss
	Amethyst: 	(Heh. Not gonna use the Advance Wars tank?)
Kaorin Sakura: 	: 3
	Amethyst: 	(First pass of the portrait up!)
	Amethyst: 	(Looks like it got artifact'd up a bit...)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Looks good.
	Amethyst: 	(Yep, I think it'll do.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Sprite done.
	Amethyst: 	(Now to wait for folks to show. Silly people, having lives and things to do.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Now to save and transparent it.
	Amethyst: 	(I'd offer to help, buuuut.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Yep
Kaorin Sakura: 	GIMPGIMPGIMP
	Amethyst: 	(I think I'll work on the rest of Lauren's family while I wait. ^_^)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Good plan!
Avara has connected.
	Amethyst: 	(Ava!)
* Kaorin Sakura places Yumi.
Avara: 	what map are we on?
Kaorin Sakura: 	The one it starts you at.
	Lonnie: 	(*switches* I'm just working on sprites. But if we wanna go now or wait for another, I'm up. Aaaand I'm guessing 'access to the forest')
Avara: 	it started me on the ice bridge
Kaorin Sakura: 	Yes, that one.
Avara: 	so people kinda... got hurt a lot?
Kaorin Sakura: 	Rob was KO'd.
Avara: 	where -is- lilea?
Kaorin Sakura: 	Hidden until Rob shows.
Avara: 	ok
* Lonnie just has a few injuries. She'll be okay when she sits down. The scientists were just completely bashed about though.
Avara: 	... i want yumi's hair to be candy, so i can lick it. >>
Avara: 	it looks delicious
Kaorin Sakura: 	: #
Kaorin Sakura: 	: 3
Kaorin Sakura: 	Well, Dan is on his way.
Kaorin Sakura: 	He texted me a bit ago.
	Lonnie: 	(If you look like :#, you can't eat the Yumicandyhair.)
	Lonnie: 	(It'll stick in your #.)
Tokens dropped onto map 'Pokéhome Lauren / Pascua Farm'
	Neil: 	(testing testing again... thoughts? 'big guy with graying hair' was the aim, probably in his garage clothes.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	I likes. ^-^
	Neil: 	(Hehe~ now Lauren can actually call home!)
	Neil: 	(Lookin' into a portrait for him now.)
Avara: 	lonnie looks cute. also, like a red mage
	Lonnie: 	("Honey, you aren't the first one to tell me that, did you know? There was this group of boys out in Celadon who said the same to me.")
	Lonnie: 	("One of 'em had this big pointy straw hat on. I remember him being really grumpy.")
Kaorin Sakura: 	I've gotten way too fast at spriting.
Avara: 	happens with practice
	Lonnie: 	(NINJA SPRITE JUTSU HOOAH)
	Lonnie: 	(Gwah. It's surprisingly hard to find an anime face for a middle-aged man!)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Hmm. Surprisingly pretty...
* Kaorin Sakura colours some more.
Tokens dropped onto map 'Pokéhome Lauren / Pascua Farm'
Kaorin Sakura: 	Dangit Mike.
Kaorin Sakura: 	You have to wait for me to send you these sprites.
Kaorin Sakura: 	SHAME.
* Kaorin Sakura has given them to many others already.

	Jared: 	(Jared, the 12-year-old, already about as tall as Lauren is.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Badass!
	Karl: 	(And Karl, a few years behind.)

Kaorin Sakura: 	Jack, you should visit Lauren's Pokehome.

Kaorin Sakura: 	Big ass family.

	Neil: 	("Hehe. You know it! Though gotta admit, Ben was a bit of a surprise... thought those days were behind us, now.")
Mike: 	(But yeah. My dad had three brothers and grew up on a farm. I will be taking inspiration from him and his.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Heh. Inspiration is the best source.

	Bill Pickett: 	* For the record, Bill Pickett was traded away for one of the two Eggs that I received from AEB Present. Which I don't see around here, BTW.
	Bill Pickett: 	(I believe Mayne the Shuppet was the other one.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	I forgot eggs?!
Kaorin Sakura: 	Which were they?
	Bill Pickett: 	(I've been told that they were the Steel-type'd Mienfoo and the Mawile with a Fighting-typed move.)
	Bill Pickett: 	(I don't know more than that.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	o.O I thought I dropped those.
	Bill Pickett: 	I don't see 'em in my Pokehome's Map Explorer.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Nope.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Okay then. :/
Kaorin Sakura: 	Because of my absent-mindedness.
Kaorin Sakura: 	They be hatched.
* Kaorin Sakura notes that Aishen's traded 'mons hatched already as well.
Mike: 	Whoo!
Kaorin Sakura: 	I apologize for Mienfoo's sprite.
Kaorin Sakura: 	I can clean it up later if you like.
Aishen: 	you guys are playing right?
Kaorin Sakura: 	Waiting on Dan.
	Mayne: 	* Removing Mayne as well, since that was the other Pokemon I traded.
Aishen: 	trying to download a 7 trial for my desktop
Aishen: 	see if that fix my cabling issue
Kaorin Sakura: 	There you go!
Mike: 	I will need their stats at some point, if you have 'em.
Kaorin Sakura: 	They were bred when Jack wasn't a breeder so they don't have any stat benefits.
Snowbear22 has connected.
Mike: 	They did get mutation shenanigans though I don't know the full extent of them.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Ah.
Kaorin Sakura: 	I'll see if I can find it.
Aishen: 	Mike theres a ghost in your bathroom
	Iele: 	* Iele? She's fine there. Just likes to pop out of the trash can and spook peoeple sometimes... Popping out of other places gets her a swift newspaper-ing from Neil.
	Iele: 	* But yeah I'll get her out of there.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Yeah, I'll have to get them from Rob later. I don't remember when I put them.
Mike: 	There! Dudes have been placed.
Aishen: 	Mike you want the rest of the crew?
Aishen: 	durant, skorupi and a group of spinarak
Mike: 	Are these folks of yours you aren't keen on? Or are you bringing in ALL of your dudes? Either way works for me, for the record.
Mike: 	Be aware that if more than one person's Pokemon are in here the map explorer might get pretty deep. But as long as you know who you're looking for alphabetically, you should be okay.
Mike: 	So: How much longer do we wait for Dan? Because I'd be okay if we had some more travails in the forest without him. >.>
Aishen: 	I nolonger have owner ship of them
Kaorin Sakura: 	He went Wild Child. He literally can't have them.
Aishen: 	all yours
Mike: 	Well okay then!
Aishen: 	they south of your boat house
Kaorin Sakura: 	We can start without him.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Didn't think it'd take him over an hour.
Avara: 	his flashback will just have to take on a life of its own i guess
Mike: 	And they've been maneuvered.
Mike: 	*hug Aishen* thanks!
Mike: 	The Pascuas will take good care of 'em.
	Lonnie: 	(Anyway, I'll BRB, but I'm ready - so start at your leisure.)
Kaorin Sakura: 	Oh yeah, this is a flashback.
Kaorin Sakura: 	SO!
Kaorin Sakura: 	This is a Flashback!
Sometime in the daytime!>br>And it's Pokémon World!
Welcome to the World of Pokémon!
Kaorin Sakura: 	This is a Flashback!
Sometime in the daytime!
And it's Pokémon World!
Welcome to the World of Pokémon!
* Lonnie scratches her head. "How're we gettin' these guys back to town now..?"
	Yumi: 	"... Anyone got any rope?"
* Yumi has suddenly appeared from... somewhere, answering the question a little.
	Lonnie: 	"Oh! Matter of fact..."
* Lonnie digs into her purse, and pulls out 10 meters of rope.
	Lonnie: 	"Got an idea?"
	Yumi: 	"We put them on either muches of leaves and grass or spare clothes, bound to rope, and drag them back."
Kaorin Sakura: 	The GM should be VERY NICE!
* Scientist 's wounds begin to clot.
Avara: 	ohshi--nobody said the scientists were dying
	Lonnie: 	(Indeed, I was unaware they might be degrading. >.>)
	Lonnie: 	(Anyway!)
	Lonnie: 	*nod* "Yeah, that might work. A sledge, right?"
	Lonnie: 	"Worth a shot."
	Yumi: 	"Kind of..." she walks over to the scientists to check them over.
TBG has connected.
	Yumi: 	5 medicine check
* Lonnie recalls Tank for the moment - too many Pokemon out is too distracting.
	Yumi: 	... asdfa. yumi knows nothing about medicine.
Theo suddenly recalls he was there for this event.
	Yumi: 	"Hey, Theo. You know anything about keeping people alive?"
	Lonnie: 	(Pfff. *lols*)
	Lonnie: 	("Oh yeah. I was there! That's how I remember this.")
	Theo: 	"Uh... I find that people feel a lot better after drinking a soda pop"
	Yumi: 	"Check these guys over anyway. I kind of zoned out during first aid classes. They were right after band practice."
* Yumi looks up to Lonnie and smiles, offering a hand. "Akino Yumi, ace musician. You?"
Lonnie whispers: Hm. Is it just me, or does Amethyst have Power 7 and a Sky speed?
Lonnie whispers: would she be able to carry this guy? or would leverage / size be an issue at all?
Aishen is disconnected.
	Lonnie: 	"Lonnie Stahrberg. I Coordinate. I was actually on the way to Liliac for a Contest there..."
	Theo: 	Theo does his best to look them over. (Education Medicine 12)
* Lonnie quickly offers her hand, for the sake of decorum.
You whisper to Mike: Size wouldn't be. It's all in the power. But, Mew isn't 'mountable' so, it'll have its power reduce by 2 when carrying someone using a Sky Speed.
* Yumi gives Lonnie a firm handshake. "Coordinator, huh? I was thinking I might go into that myself some time. Any tips?"
You whisper to TBG: Scientist's wounds looks to be clotting but any trauma would likely open his wounds and cause him to begin bleeding out.
Scientist 1 on the other hand is just blinded and beaten. He'll be fine with some rest.
Snowbear22 is disconnected.
	Lonnie: 	*nod* "Maybe - but priorities. Theo? How's he look?"
	Theo: 	"Let's see... I'm no medic, but this guy seems ta be recoverin', but we'd best be careful with 'im. If he gets jossled to much, it'll likely open up the wounds again.
	Theo: 	"This guy, on the other hand, will probably fine with a little rest."
	Yumi: 	"So the sledding idea works for one. The other will have to be carried, I guess?"
	Lonnie: 	"Okay. I think I might be able to handle that..."
	Theo: 	"I guess. Fer saftey's sake."
* Lonnie hands the rope to Yumi. "Cna you set up the sled?"
	Yumi: 	"Do any of you have strong pokemon that could do the lifting?"
	Yumi: 	(what skill would be relevant to setting up the sled?)
	Lonnie: 	"Amethyst! Time to shine!"
	Theo: 	"Torkoal here could prob'ly do it."
	Yumi: 	"Would he be safe on top of a Torkoal?"
Scientist: (( There is no skill so MIND! ))
	Theo: 	"...what is that?"
	Yumi: 	"--Is that a--where did you--I've never seen one of those before!"
	Lonnie: 	"He'll add to the weight on the ice... But he'll definitely have tracti-"
	Lonnie: 	"Oh. Amethyst, Yumi and Theo. Guys, Amethyst."
	Yumi: 	15 MIND POWAR
	Theo: 	"I've never seen an.. Amethyst, was it?"
Scientist: (( Wish I had a sled sprite right about now. But uh, you can make a sled provided you explain the materials. ))
Avara: 	yumi's badass jacket. someone else's badass jacket. rope. done.
	Amethyst: 	(May I suggest Tiles -> City, Town, Village -> Wooden Platform (vert)?)
	Amethyst: 	(ah, jacket.)
Avara: 	tied together at the sleeves
	Amethyst: 	"Yep!" The glassy-colored Pokemon swirls through the air, like a leaf on a calm wind.
* Theo takes off his shirt to reveal his manly abs. All for the sake of the sled. Yep. For the sled.
Avara: 	Theo will never get his shirt back. because it's probably gonna be torn up.
	Lonnie: 	* Lonnie smiles, and pats the Mew on the back, making a slight tinkling noise. "Amee, we might need some help carrying someone. Mirror, play pretend - four arms are better than two for this. Plus, you two might be more helpful if someone falls in..."
	Mirror: 	"Dit!"
Scientist: (( 5 minutes and counting. ))
	Lonnie: 	"Okay! I've got two strong flying Pokemon. Who's carrying whom?"
	Lonnie: 	"Or draggin the sled."
Scientist: (( Folks here? ))
	Yumi: 	(power 4)
	Lonnie: 	(They've both got Pow 7)
	Yumi: 	"Might want to fly the scientists over one at a time. We can go about deciding who's doing dragging once everyone's back on dry land."
	Lonnie: 	"That was the idea, yes. Crossing this bridge is the hardest part... since it's made of ice and all."
	Lonnie: 	"I say, let's get the unhurt guy across first. If there are any major problems, he can take it a bit better than the wounded one. Any objections?"
	Yumi: 	"Did you guys forget to add... y'know... rails?"
	Theo: 	"er..."
Scientist: (( oh shit, countdown. ))
Scientist: (( 3 minutes ))
Theo: (( what's the countdown for? the bridge? ))
	Lonnie: 	(I think it's for Mirror's Transform.)
	Scientist: 	^
Theo: (( ah ))
	Lonnie: 	(It's strictly 5 minutes at a time now, yeah.)
	Yumi: 	"Get the stronger one over first, yeah."
	Lonnie: 	"Okay!"
	Lonnie: 	(That was on torkoal-back, yes?)
	Lonnie: 	(Or are we sledding him across too?)
Avara: 	fly
Avara: 	fly one scientist over.
Avara: 	then the other.
Avara: 	then we cross.
Avara: 	then draggin/carryin happens
	Lonnie: 	(Okay, though I'm worried for the hurt guy... But yeah.)
	Lonnie: 	"Amee, Mirror, take this guy across. Set him down gently and then scoot back over here."
Avara: 	flying should be gentle. >>
Scientist: (( 2 minutes ))
Avara: 	ASDFAFN
	Mirror: 	* The Ditto and the Mew will fly the Scientist across. Any issues?
Avara: 	get them over.
Theo: (( none ))
Avara: 	GOGOGO
Scientist: (( Together? no ))
Avara: 	... one at a time. mew and mirror cooperate to carry one, then the other. that was the idea.
	Lonnie: 	"Okay! Now, the other one - take it easy, too. He's still badly hurt."
	Mirror: 	"Okay!"
	Amethyst: 	"Okay!"
	Amethyst: 	(Don't have permissiosn on the hurt scientist.)
Scientist: (( Fixed ))
Scientist: (( 1 minute ))
	Lonnie: 	"Phew... Okay."
Avara: 	they're moved over safely, yeah?
Scientist: (( Yus. ))
	Lonnie: 	(Phew.)
	Lonnie: 	"Mirror... good job. You can relax now."
* Yumi is carrying the 'sled'.
	Yumi: 	"So... how do we cross?"
	Lonnie: 	"Carefully, I suppose. Maybe crawl?"
	Lonnie: 	"It's silly and slow, but you're less likely to fall off."
* Lonnie pats Mirror on its gooey little head, and then returns the Ditto to its ball.
	Theo: 	"I have a simple solution."
* Theo mounts his torkoal
	Yumi: 	"Your solution is going to get your pokemon hurt if it falls in."
	Theo: 	"Hmm... I hadn't thought'a that..."
	Amethyst: 	"He looks kinda big... I don't think I can carry him."
	Amethyst: 	"...Well, not easily. He might tip!"
Yumi: (( is the river flowing west or east? ))
Kaorin Sakura: 	West.
Yumi: (( how far down does the bridge go? ))
* Lonnie looks up at Ace, to see if the bird has spotted any other Bug-types approaching.
Kaorin Sakura: (( How far down? Do you mean its support beams? ))
	Theo: 	"I got it! I'll jus' have Snover freeze the entire river! If there's nowhere to fall in, we can't fall in!"
	Ace: 	2 Percep.
	Ace: 	(...Ace has not clue one. -_-)
You whisper to Mike: Totes see no bugs, sir.
* Yumi checks to see how thick the bridge is from top to bottom
	Lonnie: 	"...If you think he can manage it? Then that's not a bad plan. Maybe not the whole river, but freeze a bit more along the sides of this bridge - bumpers to keep us from sliding off, and stabilize it."
	Yumi: 	"That would damage the environment. Look... are you afraid of getting a bit wet? Let me think for a moment."
Kaorin Sakura: (( Give me a perception. ))
	Yumi: 	13
	Theo: 	"I'd jus' rather not fall in again."
	Lonnie: 	"You're not a very good swimmer... though, neither am I."
Yumi: (( also, how fast is the river going? ))
Kaorin Sakura: (( Give me another perception for the river while I find the exact value of the bridge ))
	Yumi: 	9 river powar
Kaorin Sakura: (( Sorry, I'm making RaWI do the work for me. Gotta get her ot understand. ))
The bridge itself is 45.17 feet in length and 12 feet in width. The web thickness is roughly 7.57 inches with the wooden slabs thickness being 8 inches.
Yumi: (( while RaWI works on that, i have a joke solution. Could Yumi use her Hyper Voice to temporarily split the river? ))
The ice slabs connecting the two bridges are 14 inches thick.
	Lonnie: 	(That should be sturdy enough.)
	Yumi: 	"It's too bad we can't just use a zip-line to cross immediately. Hm..." She turns, looking at the group. "While I'm working this out, do you two have ideas?"
Kaorin Sakura: 	If you want Yumi, you can give me a secondary perception to study the river as an extended action.
	Yumi: 	6 extended perception
	Lonnie: 	"Honestly... I'm gonna go for it. I'm worried about leaving those guys on the far side of the river for too long. Amee, stay close - you're my lifeline."
Avara: 	wait
Avara: 	that's a misroll
Avara: 	should be rolling 3d6
Avara: 	12
	Amethyst: 	"Okay... Don't get wet!"
You whisper to Avara: After some careful watch of the river, you discern that it's moving at 2.1 miles per hour.
	Theo: 	"I suppose we could freeze up some walls on the side of the bridge."
	Yumi: 	"If you have the icing pokemon with you, that'd be the best option."
	Yumi: 	"My idea... is kind of risky."
	Lonnie: 	"If you like. But if you're not going to do that right now, then I'm going to start crawling."
	Yumi: 	"And we'd have to get wet to pull it off."
	Yumi: 	"Diving into the river with Lonnie's rope held by two people, with the bridge between us. We'd have to hold on really tight, but we could use the bridge and rope to keep from going under."
	Yumi: 	"With the two coats and the rope combined, we should have enough length to span the bridge."
	Theo: 	"It could work"
	Lonnie: 	"That sounds... very risky."
	Yumi: 	"Freeze up some rails. That's safer, and it shouldn't take you too long. Send Amee to check on the scientist in the meantime."
	Yumi: 	"We can send Amee or Tobias to get medical help if something goes wrong on the other side."
	Theo: 	"Alright. Let's get freezing, Snover!"
	Lonnie: 	"Sounds good. Amee?"
	Amethyst: 	"On it!"
* Christmas begins to form ice railings on the bridge.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Give me a D20 check, TBG.
Christmas: (( for freezer, right? ))
	Christmas: 	12
	Amethyst: 	* The Mew takes a look at the two scientists. "Hey - are you guys doing okay?" She asks this as if they might just have a rash." (I'm guessing Science wouldn't be very applicable here... Don't have a Medicine roll either.)
Avara: 	mind/int roll?
Christmas freezes 12m of icewall along the bridge!
	Amethyst: 	15, right, for an INT 5?
	Theo: 	"Great! Now the other side!"
Kaorin Sakura: 	Amethyst doesn't have ATT scores. You could give me a flat 2d6 roll.
	Amethyst: 	7 then.
	Christmas: 	2 Freezer Check
* Christmas coughs out a small cloud of ice.
You whisper to Mike: They LOOK okay.
You whisper to Mike:
	Scientist 1: 	"Still c-can't see...a little sore..."
	Amethyst: 	"Okay... Everyone's coming quick as they can! They.. just can't all fly."
* Christmas tries again, this time, with feeling! 10 Freezer Check!
Avara: 	is ice slippy-slidy in PTU?
	Amethyst: 	"And don't worry. I can't see either!"
Christmas: (( I would assume so. Christmas has Icestep. ))
Scientist 1: (( It is. ))
Avara: 	is it possible to just slide along the existing wall?
	Scientist 1: 	You could try it.
Avara: 	roll?
Christmas: (( we don't really need to now. ))
	Theo: 	"Good job, Snover! Return!"
* Yumi dives and slides along the bridge on her stomach, shouting like she's on a roller coaster.
Kaorin Sakura: 	And then there was wood.
* Yumi gets up once she hits the wooden bits, wincing a little. "That was fun!"
* Theo carefully steps across the bridge, using the walls to ease his steps.
* Lonnie waits for Theo to go, and then follows, keeping a hand on the ice-wall to stay upright.
	Theo: 	"Whew! Sweet land at last!"
	Lonnie: 	"Yeah..."
* Lonnie shakes her hands to get some heat back into them.
* Yumi goes over to the scientist that isn't wounded. "If you're conscious, I'm sure you heard the plan. You alright being pulled along on a jacket-sled?"
	Scientist 1: 	"I won't argue with it."
	Yumi: 	"Then we just need a solution for your friend. Got any strong pokemon with you?"
* Locomokoal snorts, ready to take up the challenge.
Avara: 	locomokoal looks awfully Small to be carrying a human
	Scientist 1: 	"..."
Locomokoal: (( Power 4. Don't argue with him. ))
	Scientist 1: 	"All of our Pokémon were stolen."
	Yumi: 	(brb)
	Lonnie: 	*blink* "They what?"
	Amethyst: 	"Oh no!"
	Theo: 	"Stolen? Those guys in black mus' be poachers! Can you think of any reason they would have targeted you specifically?"
Scientist 1: (( One sec, restarting firefox. ))
Yumi: (( back ))
	Scientist 1: 	"Our research..."
	Scientist 1: 	"We were researching the Bug Pokémon in the area."
	Yumi: 	"Maybe they're related to why the bugs are frenzying?"
	Scientist 1: 	"About a week in, we discovered something amazing... Not only is there a wide variety, but they actually all live *together*. We've been studying that colony since we found it. It's located in a humongous tree in the forest, and that's where the Bug-types all nest."
	Theo: 	"Oh cool!"
	Lonnie: 	"That sounds... beautiful."
TBG is disconnected.
Yumi: (( can locomokoal (power 4) and lee (power 4) work together to keep the other scientist steady while transporting him?) ))
	Scientist 1: 	"The tree though, it has a special sap. It makes all the Pokémon treat one another as a member of the colony. We were researching it. Trying to isolate it into a spray, that instead of repelling Pokémon, makes you think you're its friend. They stole all of it."
TBG has connected.
	Scientist 1: 	Recap for TBG
	Scientist 1: 	Yumi: (( can locomokoal (power 4) and lee (power 4) work together to keep the other scientist steady while transporting him?) )) Scientist 1: "The tree though, it has a special sap.

TBG: 	"A friend-spray? Man, a formula fer tha' could be worth a lot!"
	Yumi: 	"It would definitely be a more environmentally-friendly way to get through areas. Although it might cause an entirely different kind of trouble."
	Scientist 1: 	"The affects are temporary at best. It would only be good for travel safety."
A brief Tornado of leaves can be seen from the south!
TBG: 	"? What was that?"
	Lonnie: 	"I dunno, but it's not likely fair weather for us..."
	Scientist 1: 	"W-What's happening?"
	Theo: 	"Let's go find out!"
Yumi: (( perception? ))
	Lonnie: 	"A little tornado of leaves just went by..."
* Theo runs off into the fray.
	Yumi: 	9 perceive!
Scientist 1: (( Just to point out, it didn't pass you. ))
Scientist 1: (( It was spotted far to the south. ))
Theo: (( leeeeeeerroooooooooy jeeennnnnkiiinnnnnssss! ))
	Lonnie: 	(Oh, that's less good.)
Yumi: (( ... can a power 4 pokemon carry a human delicately? ))
	Lonnie: 	"Hey, wait! We gotta get these guys back to town!"
Yumi: (( lee is power 4 if you want to use locomokoal) ))
* Scientist 1 Let's find out.
TBG is disconnected.
Avara: 	=| that answer
Avara: 	is the most frustrating one you could give
Avara: 	seriously
	Lonnie: 	(Can we do it between Locomokoal and the other Pow 4 Pokemon, and/or with Amee helping?)
Scientist 1: (( Okay. Staggering limit of Power 4 is 140 lbs. And heavy lifting is 70 lbs. So, delicately it cannot do. ))
Scientist 1: (( Combined effort can work. ))
Avara: 	COOPERATION HO!
Scientist 1: (( And by 'let's find out' I mean, I'm looking it up. ))
Scientist 1: (( Not 'try it out'. ))
* Yumi sends out Lee to work with locomokoal and maybe amee to move the scientist with the hurty bits
	Yumi: 	(sorry. misunderstood then)
TBG has connected.
	Yumi: 	(update: lee and loco are working together to move the scientist)
Scientist 1: (( Together Lee and Locomokoal can almost most the scientest with ease. ))
Avara: 	up to you if you want to add amee, mike
	Lonnie: 	(If she can help and not be 'too many cooks' and get things moving, yes. Especially if this lets us move the hurt scientist easily. The unhurt one, we can just put on our shoulder and walk him back with us.)
Scientist 1: (( That's a yes! ))
Kaorin Sakura says to the GMs: Map added.
Kaorin Sakura says to the GMs: Changes saved.
* Lonnie will help the less-hurt scientist onto her shoulder, while Amethyst helps carry the hurt one, with Locomokoal and Lee. Did I get that right?
Mike: 	(Also: 3 Tyrogue. ^_^)
* Yumi puts the not-going-to-die-if-jostled scientist on her sled and starts pulling. "Lonnie, you want to handle sledding, or run up to make sure Theo doesn't get killed?"
TBG: (( aye. while Theo Leeroy Jenkins' it up. ))
Scientist 1: (( I believe that's my cue for people moving down a map. ))
	Scientist 1: 	Moved token Scientist to map: 1 B Carrico Town; coordinates X= 58, Y= -2

Scientist 1: (( I see why Mike. ))
Scientist 1: (( It's fixed now. ))
	Theo: 	"There's a battle goin' on! Woo hoo!"
	Ace: 	* Ace flutters along behind the group, trying to keep an eye out. But the bird's sight isn't as impressive as one might think...
Avara: 	lonnie
Avara: 	sledding or keeping up with leeroy?
	Lonnie: 	"Ugh... Let's make sure we don't have to drag someone ELSE back first. Wait up!"
	Lonnie: 	(Leeroying. At the least, not getting anywhere into town with this mess going on!)
	Yumi: 	"Hey, doc. Can you see yet?"
* Theo charges into the fray. "Let's do this!"
As Theo enters into the combat area, he finds that the battle is already over thanks to Typha.
Though, Typha isn't looking so hot.
Avara: 	but typha's always looking hot! (joking)
	Typha: 	"*cough* *cough* Damned...bugs..."
	Lonnie: 	"What's going on?"
* Lonnie comes up behind the over-eagre battler.
	Theo: 	"Aw man. I missed the fight!"
Avara: 	yumi asked the conscious scientist if he can see
	Typha: 	"Stick around! There'll be more sooner or later."
	Scientist 1: 	"U-Uh, that's a no ma'am."
	Yumi: 	"Damn... alright. Lonnie, I need Amee's help. I'm going to try to get these two to the center while Typha briefs you! Should be the safest place."
* Theo cracks a grin. "Sounds like a good time! You mus' be real strong ta hold off so many Pokemon when you've got a type disadvantage."
	Typha: 	"I'm setting up a Gym! I gotta be ready for it."
* Typha winces as she holds her side.
	Lonnie: 	"Okay. Amee, go with Yumi, and make sure they get there okay. Then come right back!"
	Amethyst: 	"Okay! Tell me what'cha need, Ms. Yumi!"
	Amethyst: 	(*adds Avara to the ownership for the token for ease*)
* Yumi takes the three pokemon, two scientists and one clothessled to the pokecenter, instructing everyone as needed.
Avara: 	can't move loco
	Ace: 	* Ace quietly flutters into the tree nearby.
	Lonnie: 	"Were you serious about more coming? You look... pretty banged up."
* Yumi sends Tobias to sit on Lonnie's shoulder, looking menacingly out at the forest.
* Lonnie barely notices the bird, thinking it Ace for a moment. When she sees a Spearow - a friendly one? - on her shoulder, she just blinks, and nods to the little bird.
	Typha: 	"It's been like this for a good while now. Unless the Bug Pokémon randomly decided they've had enough fun causing so much chaos for Carrico and travelers, they'll be back for sure."
	Lonnie: 	"I see... Theo, you said you'd seen some men in black clothes earlier, right? Think they've got a hand in all this?"
Avara: 	just move loco to the center
Theo: (( did I? ))
NurseJoy: (( You didn't. ))
NurseJoy: (( The Scientists mentioned them. ))
	Lonnie: 	(Ah, sorry. Misremembered.)
	Yumi: 	"Two new patients in need of treatment! Once's barely stable!"
	Lonnie: 	"Sorry. Meant the scientist."
	Theo: 	"Not me. It was th' eggheads who mentioned that."
	Lonnie: 	"Yeah. It's... been a long day."
	NurseJoy: 	"More Bug Pokémon assaults?"
	Yumi: 	"Pokemon thieves, actually. The scientists who were researching the bugs got attacked."
* NurseJoy steps out to the two Scientists with a Chansey and Audino at her side.
	NurseJoy: 	"T-Thieves?!"
	NurseJoy: 	"That's about the last thing we need right now..."
	Yumi: 	"We don't have the entire story yet, but hopefully Typha can get over to hear their story. I have a feeling the two might be related."
	NurseJoy: 	"Well, in the meantime I'll treat these two. Typha went to stop another attack herself. Shell be in shortly for treatment again..."
	Scientist 1: 	"W-Wait!"
	Scientist 1: 	"You..."
* Scientist 1 reaches out for someone.
* Yumi puts a hand on the scientist's shoulder.
	Yumi: 	"You're in the pokemon center now."
	Scientist 1: 	"You don't understand..."
	Scientist 1: 	"The research they stole..."
	Scientist 1: 	"They could get into the tree with ease. Those criminals..."
	Theo: 	"Th' tree?"
	Yumi: 	(theo, you, typha and lonnie need to get over ehre.)
	Scientist 1: 	"You and whoever else was with you--you're strong, right? You've got to stop them...!"
	Yumi: 	"We'll have to be strong enough. Thanks for the warning."
	NurseJoy: 	"Might be worth telling Typha this too."
* Yumi walks out of the center and yells across town.
	Lonnie: 	"We should go check on them... Thought Yumi would be back by now."
	Scientist 1: 	"Let me give you directions..."
	Yumi: 	"TYPHA, GET YOUR CUTE ASS OVER HERE NOW!"
* Scientist 1 bestows upon Yumi, directions.
	Lonnie: 	"...Or that."
	Theo: 	0_0
	Ace: 	"l-low?"
	Theo: 	"Didn't know she swung tha' way."
	Typha: 	"Nng. I could use some healing anyway."
* Theo mentally crosses Yumi off his list.
	Typha: 	"C'mon, Dali."
	Lonnie: 	"Wh-what's wrong? Did they-"
Aishen has connected.
	Theo: 	"Cute ass?"
* NurseJoy twitches as she see's Typha hurt again.
	NurseJoy: 	"That's your SEVENTH injury today, Typha!"
	Yumi: 	"Right, so! The bug tree. Pokemon poachers are probably invading it. As we speak. PROBABLY have something to do with what happened, but that's just my guess. They stole some research that could let them pass as the pokemons' friends with ease."
* Lonnie 's eyes widen at the implications.
* Yumi looks to Typha. "Apparently the bug pokemon all live in a collective hive, with a tree that makes sap that causes bug-types to think the eater is their friend, temporarily."
	Typha: 	"Poachers?!"
	Yumi: 	"They stole all the pokemon the scientists here had."
Aishen is disconnected.
	Theo: 	"Sounds like they need..." Theo flexes, causing manly sparkles to fill the air "...a Hero!"
Aishen has connected.
	Typha: 	"Tch, no doubt they're causing all this."
	Typha: 	"Right, I'm going to put a stop to this."
	NurseJoy: 	"Like hell you are, Typha!"
* Yumi raises an eyebrow at Theo. "Right. Call me when you find one. Meantime, we should get going. Typha, you're sitting down and staying here. The town needs you."
	NurseJoy: 	"I can't heal you today. The body can only recover so much in such a short time."
	Lonnie: 	"Whoa, yeah, hold on. You look like you could barely stand..."
	NurseJoy: 	"What you need is bedrest!"
	Theo: 	"Hey now. I happen to be.." Theo strikes the same pose "A hero!"
	Yumi: 	"A gym leader's first duty is to their township. And Nurse Joy is right."
	Typha: 	"I can't just stand by while this is going on."
* Lonnie nudges Theo in the ribs. "...Using the same pose twice in a row is poor form."
	NurseJoy: 	"And that's a BUG Pokémon hive. Let them handle it."
	Yumi: 	"What happens if the bugs attack again while you're out, Typha?"
	Typha: 	"...*huffs*"
	Theo: 	"Don't worry! We'll take care of the tree!"
	Typha: 	"Fine. I'll stay. You all got a day before I'm handling it in my own way."
Aishen is disconnected.
	Lonnie: 	*nod* "Fair enough."
	Theo: 	"One day? More than enough! Ha ha!"
	Yumi: 	"Stay. Be the leader the town needs you to be. We'll act on your behalf and try to resolve the issue."
	Yumi: 	"Thanks."
* Typha turns to Nurse Joy.
	Typha: 	"Work your magic, Marika."
* Yumi looks to Nurse Joy. "She's in your care now. Make sure she doesn't kill herself trying to help everyone."
	NurseJoy: 	"...What magic? You won't heal any of those until tomorrow. Just take it easy. Don't get hurt any further."
* Yumi recalls Lee and Tobias. "Let's get going, guys!"
	Yumi: 	"Hell isn't going to wait for our permission to break loose."
Kaorin Sakura says to the GMs: Map added.
	Lonnie: 	"Yep. Ace, Amee, backstage. Let's enter softly and see how the crowd reacts."
	Amethyst: 	"...Hunh?"
Kaorin Sakura says to the GMs: Changes saved.
* Lonnie gives a tired smile. "Sorry. I mean, back in the balls."
* Lonnie recalls her two Pokemon.
	Yumi: 	"Alright, 'hero', you're in front for now. You got hurt the least so far."
	Theo: 	"Alright. Jus' let me switch up my team a bit..."
Avara: 	team vote
Avara: 	should we rest and heal up a little first?
Theo: (( I vote we should. Theo is fine, but you guys could use the rest. ))
Avara: 	with nurse help, how long to heal each injury?
	Lonnie: 	(We could use an hour or two, but not much more than that. We can't afford too much delay.)
NurseJoy: (( Lemme check the rules on healing. I don't recall them offhand at a Center. ))
NurseJoy: (( 1 hour heals all HP, all status conditions, and all Center frequency moves. For every 30 minutes after that, they also heal 1 injury up to a max of 3. ))
NurseJoy: (( If you have 5 or more injuries, it instead takes an hour to heal an injury, not 30 minutes. ))
Avara: 	up to you how long, mike. you have the most injuries.
	Theo: 	Theo is healed and gains 0 hit points.
	Locomokoal: 	Locomokoal is healed and gains 0 hit points.
	Heracross: 	Heracross is healed and gains 28 hit points.
	Lonnie: 	(Then let's call it the two hours, to get to full.)
	Larvesta: 	Larvesta is healed and gains 37 hit points.
	Lonnie: 	(2 hours, 1 for the normal center heal and 1 to remove two injuries. Seem right?)
NurseJoy: (( That's correct. ))
	Starly 1: 	Starly 1 is healed and gains 38 hit points.
	Yumi: 	Yumi is healed and gains 8 hit points.
	Poliwag: 	Poliwag is healed and gains 27 hit points.
	Larvesta 1: 	Larvesta 1 is healed and gains 40 hit points.
	Sewaddle: 	Sewaddle is healed and gains 32 hit points.
	Lonnie: 	(I think that puts me in a good position... Okay!)
	Yumi: 	"So... transport. How are we getting there? Anyone got any big flyers or something, or are we walking? I can guide us there either way, I got directions."
	Theo: 	"I got something!"
You whisper to Avara: The directions give you a straight shot to the place. You can avoid the river entirely.
	Lonnie: 	"What is it?"
	Yumi: 	"Good news is, either way we don't have to cross that river again."
	Theo: 	"Ever ride a Gyarados?"
	Yumi: 	"... You had a Gyarados and you didn't bring it out for the river crossing?"
	Yumi: 	"Seriously?"
	Theo: 	I didn't have it with me."
	Yumi: 	"Check your box for anything that's good against bugs. Now."
	Yumi: 	(i hear you have aerodactyl)
TBG is disconnected.
	Lonnie: 	"Ace is already my, *ahem* proverbial ace in the hole on that front. Amemthyst isn't bad either... I suppose River would be okay, but she's inexperienced..."
TBG has connected.
* Lonnie hems and haws, and makes the switch anyway, swapping Tank out for River, just in case.
	Yumi: 	"All I've got is Lee and Tobias. And my voice."
TBG: (( so do we want to try Aerodactyl? ))
Avara: 	do you?
Avara: 	it resists bug one step and has two types that get STAB SE on bugs
TBG: (( he has Power 4. Not sure that's enough for all of us. ))
NurseJoy: (( WAIT ))
TBG: (( wait... Power 5 ))
Avara: 	i meant for the -fighting-.
NurseJoy: (( Aw, they never detailed him ))
Avara: 	... or maybe leave it behind to help the town defense
NurseJoy: (( I'd say he has mountable. ))
Avara: 	up to you on that.
NurseJoy: (( But yeah, can only carry 1 rider without a problem. ))
TBG: (( Which means he'll be taking penalties for carrying all 3 of us. ))
NurseJoy: (( WIth Power 5, he could also carry a light rider on top of that at decreased mobility. ))
NurseJoy: (( He won't be able to carry all 3 of you ))
	Lonnie: 	(How about Power 10, size Gargantuan?)
	Lonnie: 	(It wouldn't get us over the ice bridge, but...)
	Yumi: 	(what are you packing?)
	Lonnie: 	(A River. ^_^)
NurseJoy: (( Uhh, that would. Yes. ))
NurseJoy: (( Heatran ))
TBG: (( what? ))
TBG: (( oh! ))
	Lonnie: 	(Lauren is basically this campaign's Tulip.)
	Yumi: 	(ooh~ bring that)
TBG: (( forgot that existed. ))
* Lonnie knew she made that swap for a reason.
	Lonnie: 	"Okay. I've got my secret weapon... She's young and inexperienced, but she's BIG. We'll have to get back over the river first."
	Yumi: 	"We don't."
	Yumi: 	"We have a straight path. No river crossing."
	Lonnie: 	"Even better."
	Lonnie: 	*grabs her Pokeballs* "I believe we have an audience waiting for us. Let's make an entrance."
TBG: 	"Are we getting out the big guns?"
	Yumi: 	"We might have to, yeah."
	Yumi: 	"We're going into a hive of killer insects."
Theo: 	"Sounds like..."
	Yumi: 	"Who will probably be manipulated to attack us on sight."
	Lonnie: 	"Don't. Doooon't."
	Theo: 	"AN ADVENTURE!!!!"
	Lonnie: 	...*sigh*
* Yumi is thoroughly unimpressed by this shout.
	Theo: 	"Let's go save Carrico Town!"
	Yumi: 	"So, this -big- inexperienced pokemon. Let's see her?"
	Lonnie: 	*grin* "Okay. River! You're the star!"
	Yumi: 	"Holy--Wh-wha-what is that?!"
	River: 	* In a flash of light, a HUGANTICIMOUS Heatran appears. She has a large pink flower tucked behind one side of her head.
	River: 	* The flower alone is probably about as big as a small person...
* Marty hears a loud thud and sees a bright flash and turns around
	Marty: 	"OHMYGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
* Marty flees into the Pokemart.
* Lonnie chuckles. "Shock and awe."
	Old Lady: 	"Heatran....? Are you here to save us or is our land turning into a volcano...?"
* Old Lady sighs
	Old Lady: 	"First Cinnabar now here...?"
	Theo: 	"Huh. I got somethin' big an' red too. Let me show ya!"
	Lonnie: 	"River..." *pat pat* "We want to ride you into a dangerous situation. You're the best Pokemon for the job. But we want you to be big and scary when we get where we're going. Can you do that for us?"
	Lonnie: 	(...)
	Lonnie: 	(See, when you say it like that...)
* Theo throws out a Poke Ball to reveal his biggest Pokemon.
	River: 	* The Heatran... blushes, modestly. "O-of course! And don't worry, no volcan-" She stops to look at the newly-revealed Gyarados. "-ooooooh."
* Leviathan emerges with a royal roar!
	Old Lady: 	"An' I think it's about time I hit the sack."
Mike: 	(LEVI-ATHAN, HECK YEAH)
* Old Lady turns and enters her home after a giant red Gyarados appears beside the legendary Heatran.
* Lonnie looks over. "Oh, beautiful! Shiny, too."
* Yumi walks over to Heatran and puts a hand on one of the metal bits of the beastly fire type. "Let me recommend my polish brand of choice once we're done. If you're taking her into a contest she needs to be more presentable, right?" She then turns, looking from Heatran to Gyarados. "Leviathan and behemoth up in here, huh?"
	Theo: 	"Yep! She's mah pride an joy!"
	Lonnie: 	"I'd love to hear it! She'll need it when we're done."
* Theo hops on Leviathan.
* Lonnie climbs up on River, holding on to the metal protrusions on her back.
* Yumi climbs onto the Heatran, waving to the Gyarados. "Race to the tree?"
Kaorin Sakura: (( I take it this is my cue to port you guys? ))
	Lonnie: 	(yesplz)
Theo: (( aye ))
Avara: 	yuppers!
Kaorin Sakura: 	Sent Mike a link to move River to 2 A Outside the Tree (29,27)

Avara: 	oh god, this map
	River: 	(As for that race... Overland 8 is what I have.)
Avara: 	kaorin, that truck by the tent?
Avara: 	celes' first trainer attack was right next to it
Avara: 	she punched a rocketeer headfirst into a door
Kaorin Sakura: (( So you played this part of the module? ))
	River: 	(I remember this! Yeah, this was your first map.)
	River: 	(That was a fun day.)
Avara: 	this is where i came in
Kaorin Sakura: (( Oh, good! Now you get to see where things are different. ))
Kaorin Sakura: (( Welcome aboard the same boat TBG and Mike are at ))
Theo: (( one of my players snuck into the truck and drove it over the rockets. ))
Kaorin Sakura: (( Mike made the module, Dan ran the module and this is my version ))
Avara: 	pffahahaha
	River: 	(I actually included rules for that!)
Avara: 	well... it's getting late. if we could set up a day to continue this or something i'd be really happy
Kaorin Sakura: (( I was gonna let you guys get through this part and then call it a day. ))
Kaorin Sakura: (( But, up to you guys. ))
Avara: 	i meant 'cause i wanna get through the entire tree
Kaorin Sakura: (( Oh, we're finishing the whole module. ))
Avara: 	by average gametime we only have a little while left
Avara: 	YAY!
Kaorin Sakura: (( Anyways.. ))
	Yumi: 	"STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM!"
Rocket 2: (( Hmm. ))
Rocket 2: (( Would you like to roll a Perception before you go all Oblivion Guard on their asses? ))
Avara: 	hahaha
Avara: 	sure
Avara: 	12
Theo: (( Nah. Charge into the fray and freak them the f*** out! ))
	River: 	(I can go a little longer, but I do have work in the morning. Either way, fun was had by me. Lonnie will have to explain why she's got such awesome mons... I have an idea or two.)
Rocket 2: (( You can hear the three females in the distance talking amongst themselves. ))
* Lonnie is with Theo on this one - but if she can keep her eyes peeled WHILE Ride of the Valkyries plays in her head, that'd be awesome.
	Rocket 2: 	"Isaac has this odd fascination with that freak..."
	Rocket 1: 	"Doesn't matter. We're making oodles here. Pokémon, tech, and a crap ton for breedin' and sellin'."
	Rocket: 	"Wasn't she clutching an egg when she flew away...?"
	Rocket 2: 	"Who, that freak? Probably."
	Yumi: 	"Right. Sounds like we've got an interrogation to do."
	Rocket: 	"Think Isaac's after the egg and not her?"
	Rocket 1: 	"Probably. But again, doesn't matter. He'll be exactly as his name says, King."
	Rocket 2: 	"Isaac King always did have a big sound of authority..."
* Theo decides he needs to strike... he needs a cool battle cry. What was the name of that one country again? Oh yeah-
* Theo rides into the fray on Leviathan, ready to knock out some Rockets. "DEMACIA!"
	Leviathan: 	"RRRRRRRROOOOOOAAAAAARRRR!!!!"
	Yumi: 	"... What's a Demacia?"
	River: 	"What's Demacia?"
The three females turn around quickly and grins as they see Theo riding along a Red Gyarados.
	Lonnie: 	"I don't know, but it sounds good when you yell it. DEMACIA!"
	Rocket 2: 	"It's mine!"
	Rocket 1: 	"No way, I"M catching it!"
* Yumi shouts as loud as she can. "DEMACIA!"
Avara: 	focus check?
	Rocket: 	"Screw you girls, I'm catching THAT ONE!"
Avara: 	trying to disorient them
	Lonnie: 	(permission to crash through the trees?)
Rocket: (( Pff, yeah! ))
	River: 	"DEMACIAAAAAA!"
	River: 	"(Hey, that IS fun!)"
Rocket: (( Disorient? Hmm... ))
Leviathan: (( and that's the reason Garen is my favorite champion. ))
	Rocket: 	The GM should be SOMEWHAT NICE!
Rocket: (( Eh, sure. But it'll be only against one target. ))
Avara: 	27 on the closest one
Avara: 	sheeeeit. that's a damn nice roll.
* Rocket 2 clenches her ears as she hears the loud voice!
Each begin throwing out Pokémon. Except the girl who's still holding her ears.
	Lonnie: 	"Haha! Oh man, I think I'm starting to understand why Theo likes that whole 'hero' schtick."
You all notice that their uniforms (despite the sprites) are black with a big red R on the front.
* Avara sends out Tobias.
	Theo: 	"What schtick?! I am a hero!"
* Yumi sends out Tobias.
And that they bear some strange glove on their right hand.
* Lonnie doesn't send anyone out... yet. Instead, she'll just open up with an ANCIENTPOWER from River, if possible!
Rocket 2: (( Actually, that was the start of initiative. I'm just loading their 'mon. ))
	Lonnie: 	(Okay.)
	Lonnie: 	(Otherwise she was gonna attack a truck just to make the point clear.)
Rocket 2: (( Alright, that loads up everything. I presume you're using River? ))
Rocket 2 misses her chance to send out a Pokémon due to disorientation.
	Lonnie: 	(I am!)
TBG is disconnected.
Avara: 	someone demacia'd TBG's connection again
	Lonnie: 	(DEMACIAAAA)
TBG has connected.
Rocket 2: (( Ava, don't forget to enter in your initiative. ))
	Lonnie: 	(I don't like the look of those markers)
Avara: 	i have no way to attack not NVE in this fight
Avara: 	tyrogue, y u no have fighting moves?
	Lonnie: 	(If you can't hit for effective damage, make your damage more tactically effective.)
	Lonnie: 	(Block 'em in, or beat on the truck, or raid the tents.)
Rocket 2: (( Initiative Dan ))
Avara: 	speaking of tactics
Avara: 	have river wreck that magneton's face
Theo: (( agreed ))
	Lonnie: 	(River only has Ancientpower, actually.)
Avara: 	no fire?
Avara: 	no fire -at all-?
	Lonnie: 	(It's Psychic/Steel typed.)
Avara: 	...
Avara: 	'kay.
Lonnie has received initiative.
	Rocket 2: 	New Encounter Starts: Initiative Sorted, Top of the Order, Round 1
	Lonnie: 	(But she has another trick up her sleeve.)

Theo: (( Ah. ))

Theo: (( I was gonna say... ))
	Lonnie: 	(In AEB Present.)
Theo: (( so is Leviathan, apparently. ))
Avara: 	okay, so. should tobias attack foretress... or should tobias GO FOR THE EYES of one of the rockets?

	Tobias: 	(how does fivestrike work, precisely?)
	Lonnie: 	(Seriously, don't worry about it.)
Rocket 2: (( Roll 1d8 ))
Rocket 2: (( Whenever a Move with Five Strike is used, roll 1d8. On a result of 1, the attack hits one time. On a result of 2 or 3, the attack hits two times. On a result of 4, 5, or 6, the attack hits three times. On a result of 7, the attack hits four times. On a roll of 8, the attack hits five times. Multiply the Move's Damage Base by the number of times hit; that becomes its new Damage Base. You may always apply Technician to Moves with Five Strike. Apply STAB and all other effects that raise Damage Base only after the Move's final Damage Base has been calculated. ))
* Tobias divebombs Rocket 2 with great vengeance and FURIOUS anger. or something. 7
Rocket 2: (( Multiplay it's damage base by 4 ))

	Rocket 2: 	...
	Tobias: 	if so, 49 flying physical
Rocket 2: (( Nonono, the damage base is multiplied! What's is it's damage base? ))

Rocket 2: (( Also, you forgot ACC ))
	Tobias: 	1d8+5.
	Tobias: 	i rolled 4d8+20
Rocket 2: (( the number not the damage ))

Rocket 2: (( It's damage base 2 ))
Rocket 2: (( You factor in STAB last. ))
Avara: 	...
Avara: 	*throws hands in the air*
Rocket 2: (( So, that's damage base 2*4=8+STAB=10 ))
Avara: 	okay
Avara: 	how much dice+damage is base 10
Rocket 2: (( 3d12+10 ))
Avara: 	thank you

Lonnie has received initiative.
	Lonnie: 	(How bad does that Rocket look?)
	Lonnie: 	(As in, in terms of being wounded / able for me to KO here)
Rocket 2: (( Fairly bad. ))
Avara: 	probably about to fall over on her face
* Lonnie takes a daring leap off of River, and tries to slam into the hurt Rocket! This is a poor idea, but awesome. (How do I do this?)
Rocket 2: (( How tall is River? ))
	Lonnie: 	(Uh, being Gargantuan? I'd guess 15-20 feet up actually.)
Rocket 2: (( Oh. I have height charts. ))
	Lonnie: 	(Oh, Heatran is normally only 5 feet tall.)
	Lonnie: 	(5'07")
	Lonnie: 	(So... maybe call it more like 8?)
Avara: 	how is it gargantuan then?
TBG: (( It's only Huge. ))
Rocket 2: (( Devs are stupid with legendaries and heights ))
Avara: 	one moment
Rocket 2: (( the size of legendaries makes no sense compared to their actual seize. ))
Rocket 2: (( Actual height I mean ))
Theo: (( Gyarados is 21 feet tall, but only Huge size category. ))
	Lonnie: 	(Hookay then.)
Avara: 	mm.
Avara: 	so... devs being devs. hopefully that doesn't infect you, dan
Rocket 2: (( Well, looking at Heatran's height, it SHOULD be Medium at less than 6 feet. ))
	Lonnie: 	(So: 11 for Acrobatics, will that help?)
Rocket 2: (( So, bumping up a size category according to my chart, that's between 6'6" and 20'11" ))
Theo: (( I'll talk with them about it. ))
Rocket 2: (( I brought it up to Doxy before. ))
Rocket 2: (( He agreed it made no sense ))
	Lonnie: 	(I mostly just didn't know how to do a Struggle attack when I land, or what its damage base is.)
Avara: 	maybe it'll fix when we actually get a PTUdex
Rocket 2: (( Well, you're falling. There's more than just your Struggle attack happening. ))
Rocket 2: (( Your acrobatics check allows you to reduce your falling damage by 2 meters ))
Rocket 2: (( I just need to know how high up you were before falling. ))
	Lonnie: 	(Oi.)
Rocket 2: (( Told you height and weight stuff comes up Mike. >.> ))
	Lonnie: 	(May we presume 8 feet? Or do we *need* exactitude?)
Rocket 2: (( 8 feet works. ))
Rocket 2: (( That nullifies your falling damage and me to ask you how much Lonnie weighs because that affects falling damage. ))
Rocket 2: (( Now, for your struggle attack. Roll it! ))
Rocket 2: (( AC4. DB4. Normal type. Physical. A-gogogo! ))
	Lonnie: 	0 to hit, according to page 16 of the PDF. 18 damage roll.
	Lonnie: 	(grr)
Theo: (( *facepalm* ))
* Rocket 2 watches you leap from your Pokémon and guards with her arms, blocking your sloppy strike!
	Lonnie: 	(As for weight: 140 lbs or thereabouts? That's Lauren's weight I believe. Not that I'm any good at these things.)
Magneton: (( That's weight class 4. You may want to jot that down somewhre. ))
	Rocket 1: 	"Magneton! We got the advantage here! Hit that Gyarados with a Thundershock!"
* Leviathan is out of range.
Avara: 	i think gyarados is flying or bouncing
	River: 	(Hold it!)
Magneton: (( It's 15m up. ))
	River: 	(Go ahead and hit someone else with it though, I guess?)
Leviathan: (( unless the trainer underestimated the range of thundershock. ))
Magneton: (( Ah, I did. ))
Avara: 	overestimated.
Magneton: (( You're 1m out of range. ))
Magneton: (( In that case. ))
* Magneton will glance about, unable to strike Leviathan and instead strike Heatran. It's a big target anyway!
Magneton: (( You wanted to stop me before, Mike? ))
	River: 	(Yep!)
Leviathan: (( hold it. ))
Leviathan: (( wait for it. ))
	River: 	(But if it's gonna attack Heatran, let it happen.)
Leviathan: (( ... fair enough ))
	Magneton: 	6 vs. Sp.Def Eva
Leviathan: (( let's just KO it fast ))
	Magneton: 	35 Electric Special Damage!
* River is hit! But... seems unharmed. In fact, she seems... reinvigorated.
	Rocket 1: 	"The hell are you doing?! I said attack the Gyarados!"
	River: 	"Ooh... That felt nice. Do it again!"
	Rocket: 	"Tch, too far up to nab? Well, when you come down..."
* Rocket draws out an Empty Pokémon and grips it in her glove hand. The ball grows darker as she does.
	Rocket: 	"You'll be my Gyarados..."
	Theo: 	"The hell is that?!"
	Lonnie: 	(Oh, that sounds ominous.)
Avara: 	empty pokeball*?
* Rocket 1 draws an empty Pokéball as well and grips it in her glove hand. The ball grows several shades darker.
Theo: (( the dark energy is what Theo is referring to. ))
	Rocket 1: 	"Well, if you're getting the Gyarados, I'm getting that Heatran!"
	Rocket 2: 	"Oh gawd!!"

* Rocket 2 draws out a potion and spritz her face with it.
