Tori's sTori part 3

/startofficialhunt aQrator | Hello everyone and welcome to Tori's sTori Part 3! Through this odyssey, we will be exploring the first part of the post-game of Explorers of Sky together, picking up where it left off back in December. I'll be traversing through the game as Tori, asking questions along the way. Some questions may even refer back to the past two odysseys! Don't worry, an overview of all relevant information can be found here: https://bit.ly/Torisstori2. Since the past odyssey, peace has slowly started to return to the world of Pokémon. Tori and Riolu continued training rigorously under Wigglytuff's tutelage, and many Pokémon have been alleviated of their worries thanks to the jobs team Scavengers has completed. Now, a few months later... Tori and Riolu have proven themselves worthy to conduct the graduation exam! **For it, they have to traverse this dungeon.** | Mystifying Forest | At the end of the dungeon you can find Luminous Spring, the place where Pokémon went to evolve. Sadly, it has lost its function ever since the flow of time started going awry. Anyway, if they bring back the treasure found at Luminous Spring, they are considered a full-fledged exploration team! Should be easy right? **Well... they have to be aware though, as a frighteningly strong enemy resides in Mystifying Forest. It is known as...** | the Grand master of all things bad; Grand Master of all things bad | Tori and Riolu are terrified of the grandmaster, even if the Ursaring and Teddiursa in Treasure Town mentioned they often play in the forest and never heard of them. Still, the twosome want to do some preparation to ensure they are ready. Together with a Pokémon that can learn Poison Powder through level-up and a Pokémon that can learn Ember through level-up, they set course to Northern Desert to do some more jobs (1 A rank and 5 S rank missions) to get to the Diamond rank. **Which two Pokémon joined them? List alphabetically**. | Bagon, Paras | Team Scavengers' reputation appears to precede itself, since four Pokémon were accepted to be part of the team: a Cacnea, a Larvitar and two Aron. Thanks to their adoration, Tori and Riolu now feel they’re ready to go to Mystifying Forest. They stock up on some extra reviver seeds and oran berries, give Paras and Bagon the day off, and head out. Meanwhile, Bagon and Paras are back at Spinda's Café enjoying some drinks. There, they notice a special offer advertised at the recycle shop for an HP boosting item. They think this must be something Tori and Riolu want, so they ask what they need to trade for said item. **Which four items do they need to trade to get said item?** List alphabetically. | Oran Berry, Oran Berry, Oran Berry, Plain Seed | Making their way to the top, Tori and Riolu come across a special Kecleon's Shop that sells some weird items: 2 Moon Stones and a Metal Coat. Intrigued, they decide to buy all for 1000 Poké each. Then, in the depths of the forest, the grandmaster and his henchmen trap them in a pitfall. The twosome must battle their way through… a Wigglytuff, Chatot, Loudred, Corphish, Sunflora, Dugtrio, Diglett, Croagunk and Chimecho. **Another Pokémon opened the pitfall. Which Pokémon did this?** | Bidoof | The battle ensues as the grandmaster’s minions close in on team Scavengers, only for the duo to unleash their STAB attacks on the colorful cast. Chatot and Diglett are the first and second to fall, followed quickly by Chimecho. Wait… No, Corphish is actually third, because it blocked the attack for her. Chimecho is next though, and a few turns (and 1 reviver seed) later, only the Grandmaster is left standing. It tries to use Yawn on Riolu, but this is ineffective. Force Palm keeps missing due to a move used by one of the henchmen (though it was facing the right direction every time), so Tori actually takes the spotlight and defeats the pink menace with a barrage of water guns. **In order, list the skill that caused Corphish to be defeated before Chimecho, the skill that caused Riolu to be unaffected by Yawn, and the move that caused Force Palm to miss.** Assume level-up movesets. | Bodyguard, Nonsleeper, Mud Bomb | After the tough battle, Tori and Riolu climb back up and join Teddiursa and Ursaring at Luminous Cave. There, they find the treasure: a Perfect Apple. A sound is heard, and suddenly, a light is shining down in front of them. Luminous Spring regained its power! Excited, Teddiursa walks into the light, and is finally able to evolve into an Ursaring. When Riolu stands underneath the light, however… the emanating voice states that Riolu cannot evolve. And it’s not just Riolu, but Tori as well. “Why? It may be influenced by a distortion in the fabric of space. Your presence is somehow related to the distortion of space itself. And as a result, you cannot evolve”. When he first stepped into the light, Riolu stated that it probably does not need an item to evolve. This is, however, incorrect. **What item does he need to evolve?** | Sun Ribbon | Huzzah! Tori and Riolu graduated! Time for a celebration in Spinda’s Cafe. Seems like the party already started, as Spinda had an announcement. A new route to a location called Sky Peak has been discovered. At the bottom is a village where Project P has set up camp. Excited by the news but bound by duty, Team Scavengers left for Mystifying Forest once more to do some jobs: four 3★ jobs to be specific. A Bulbasaur also joined the ranks. The day after, the promoted duo head across the new route to Shaymin Village. After a pleasant exchange with one of the resident Shaymin, he vows to bring them to the top of the mountain. Across the mountain, many different Pokémon roam, appearing across various passes. **Which Pokémon can be found in the highest amount of Sky Peak pass floors?** | Hitmonchan | At the 4th station clearing, set up by Spinda’s representatives of the equally levelled team Frontier, an Octillery can be heard shouting for help. The explorer Sneasel is getting picked on by a group of Carnivine on the fifth floor. Always one to help out, team Scavengers rush up alongside the aforementioned explorers team to help out. There, after a quick skirmish where Sneasel seems to have fled, it turns out he stole a treasure from the Pokémon that ganged up on him. Time to give chase. Blazing past the final Drifblim stop, on the 7th station pass, they recruited a Furret. At the next clearing, they find Machoke, Breloom and Mawile surrounding a downed Sneasel. He’s in critical condition, and needs some help. To that end, team Scavengers and Shaymin continue up to the 8th station clearing, **where this Pokémon lives.** | Ampharos | Ampharos carried Sneasel to his base and made sure to nurture him to full health as the others progressed up the mountain. It didn’t take long for team Frontier and team Scavengers (with the newly recruited Primeape) to make it to the top. The place is filled with a noxious gas, and the nearby water sources have a purple hue. A group of Grimer and Muk have invaded the mountain’s peak. It’s time to knock some sense into them so they can return home. Primeape starts with a Cross Chop, Riolu paralyzes a Grimer, and Tori heals Primeape and herself up to full after being bombarded with Sludge Bombs. When using Cross Chop for the second time, Primeape becomes terrified for some reason. The same happened to Shaymin, Breloom and Mawile as well. A few turns later, Machoke takes first blood as Seismic Toss deals 55 damage. Sequentially, Primeape gets paralyzed by a Grimer, only for Breloom to put it to sleep, as well as confusing another. Finally, the last Muk is taken out by Tori’s Water Gun after the two teams had picked off every opponent one by one. **What were the causes of all the inflicted status conditions? List alphabetically.** Assume level-up movesets, except for Tori and Riolu, who have unchanged movesets. | Disable, Dynamic Punch, Effect Spore, Force Palm, Stench | With the sense knocked into the poison-types, the Grimer and Muk finally notice Shaymin amidst the Pokémon. The summit has been abandoned for so long that it has fallen into disrepair, and the group of Sludge Pokémon erroneously believed that this was the place they always called home because of it. They left, leaving Shaymin to clean up the waste using its powers. The result is a magnificent verdant peak full of Gracideas and a view stretching across a massive mountain range, all covered in the cloudy weather everyone had to endure when ascending. After a flight back down on the now sky forme Shaymin, and on their way to their base in Sharpedo Bluff, Tori and Riolu got a message. **They now have access to this feature.** | Sky Jukebox | Time to get back to the daily routine: The first day, a job was completed on the 5th, 6th, 7th and 10th floor. Furthermore, Two Koffing and a Scyther were impressed by the Totodile's Aqua Tail and joined the party. Team Scavengers also received an egg after defeating a thieving Yanmega, and a Yanma was inspired by Tori’s heroics too! The day after, the team recruited a Beldum and a Golem, and finished a mission on the 4th, 6th, 7th, 8th and 10th floor of a certain location. **How many rank points does team Scavengers have now?** | 7270 | Outside Spinda’s Café, one of its regulars was looking for Riolu and Tori. He tells about the famous explorer Scizor, and how his fame stretched the entire continent many decades ago. At some point, he went missing while exploring Blizzard Island. Many exploration teams set out to rescue him, but all were sent packing by the bitter cold and swirling blizzards. No one has tried to go to the island in a long while, but maybe team Scavengers can do it. With Primeape and Shelgon (who still knows Ember) in tow, they set out to the island. **Alphabetically list the dungeons found on the same island as Blizzard island (that are not exclusive to the future timeline of Primal Dialga)** | Altar of Ice, Crevice Cave, Mt. Avalanche | At Blizzard Island, team Scavengers got two new recruits: An Azurill and a Smoochum. Once they reached Crevice Cave and restocked at the Kangaskhan rock, the quartet continued further down. A Marill and a Piplup were also enticed to join. In the pit, Tori, Riolu, Primeape and the new recruit Marill are met with the host of the island. She welcomes you to the island, and beckons you to come closer.. so she can freeze you to the bone! Another boss battle ensues. **This move causes massive damage to Primeape, causes Marill to use a Reviver Seed, and causes its user to have a status condition.**  | Ominous Wind | Tori quickly sent Primeape and Marill home, and threw a Totter Seed to buy Tori and Riolu some time. Since one knows Crunch and the other knows Bite, the battle was uneventful from that point on. The blizzard subsides and the encased Scizor is freed from its icy prison. He seems a bit disoriented, but he’s thankful towards his rescuers. Tori and Riolu lead the Pincer Pokémon back to Treasure Town, the latter profusely thanking the double over and over. Since he has no money after decades of being frozen solid, he instead bestows the Secret Rank upon the double, which allows them to go on Special missions. **These items can exclusively be found by accepting special missions and going up a dungeon.** | Fiery Drum, Grass Cornet, Icy Flute, Sky Melodica, Terra Cymbal | After that strange interaction, the blue mon group went back to bed, and cleared out Mystifying Forest (once again) the following day with three 3★ jobs. When collecting their rewards in the guild, Riolu notices Sunflora’s giddy behaviour, and asks her about it. She explains that, in an uncharted part of the ocean, encased in ice for millenia, lies a dungeon called the Surrounded Sea, rife with treasure. Recently, the ice has started to crack, and the location appears to be accessible for the first time in tens of thousands of years! “Oh my gosh! Just thinking about it is enough to make me feel faint!”. Tori and Riolu have to get in on the action! After restocking their items, Riolu, Tori, Parasect and Shelgon head out. Once there, they recruit a Horsea, and **at the bottom of the dungeon, they find this item exclusive to the location.** | Wonder Egg | Another job well done, with some peculiar treasure to bring back. The Wonder Egg is put on a third bed in Sharpedo Bluff, so that Riolu and Tori can look after it. They also opened the treasure chests found at the bottom, one of which held a Lunar Ribbon. The next morning, Riolu is woken up from a little ticking sound. He opens his eyes to a slowly wobbling blue spheroid. Bolting out of bed, he shakes Tori to quickly wake up. “The egg moved!” he squeals. Another tick, another shake. “It’s hatching!” A bright light envelops the two, and once it fades, a blue Pokémon is floating where the egg used to be.“Hi...iiii!♪” he says to the new parents. “Hi there buddy, what is your name?” “yor naym?” Naturally, the hatchling understands very little of what Tori is saying. Neither knows anything about him either (except that he's super cute). Pondering, Riolu suggests going to Chatot. He’s the head of intelligence after all! “Let’s go see Chatot!” “Kya!♪” **What Pokémon just hatched?** | Manaphy | At the guild, Chatot confirms that the youngster is a Manaphy. While he knows very little about it, he can tell them that he usually grows up in the sea, so it’s a rare sight. When asked what Riolu and Tori want to do with the youngster, Manaphy suddenly starts crying. Unsure of what to do, Tori eyes the bird, who concludes that he must be hungry. Seeing as it’s a water-type Pokémon, Chatot suggests getting a blue gummi. Luckily, Tori and Riolu have been saving gummis, so after a quick stop at Kangaskhan Storage, their bag is filled with them to sate the infant’s hunger. “Weh.. wah?...“ “Look Manaphy, a blue gummi.” Tori extends the squishy food. “...Goomi?” Manaphy looks at it and takes a nibble. This quickly puts a smile on the little guy’s face. Phew, crisis averted. “Goomi!♪ Goomi!♪” The baby sticks out his little arms. “Seems like he wants another”. Riolu laughs. Tori happily obliges and hands over another goomi. **If he were in the right IQ group for it, what IQ skill would Manaphy learn after eating the second goomi?** | Efficiency Expert | Tori and Riolu decide to watch over the little guy for a while. Though Chatot expressed some concerns about him staying in Treasure Town (a Manaphy should grow up in the sea after all), just dropping it in the sea isn’t exactly safe either. So it’s settled. With his belly full, Manaphy has fallen asleep, thus Riolu carries him back to Sharpedo Bluff where he can sleep. The next morning, Tori and Riolu wake up to the happy smile of Manaphy. “Good morning, Tori.” exclaims Riolu through a yawn. “Hi!♪” Riolu smiles. “Good morning, Manaphy” “Moning Toree! Reeoloo!” Aw, he’s a quick learner. To make sure he’s healthy too, Tori proposes to take a walk to the beach. “I’m sure he will love it!” she says. While on their way there, they are reminded of their other egg, and decide to check up with Chansey. A healthy dark-type Pokémon hatched, and it wants to join the team! **Which Pokémon wants to join?** | Stunky | “Over here, Manaphy!” Riolu leads the way down the hill. The baby looks in absolute awe at the rolling waves. “Kyakya! ♪ Kyakya!♪” he excitedly announces. “This is the sea.” Riolu explains. Tori follows up: “Sea? it’s right there.” “Sea?” “That’s right, Manaphy. Sea.” Tori answers after a jab from Riolu. “Sea! Sea!” Manaphy begins to dance around. “Reoloo!♪ Toree!♪” Looking at the happy Pokémon, Riolu mentions that it was a great idea to bring him down here. They played until sunset, and made sure Manaphy had his fill of gummis so he had a great day. But the next morning, as Riolu and Tori wake up... Manaphy is gone! Both are wide awake and frantically start looking around the base, both inside and out. No luck. Where can he be?! “You look in Treasure Town, I’ll search the guild.” Riolu says, and starts to make a run for it. A little while later, both meet at the crossroads. No luck. He couldn’t have gone too far though. **Suddenly, Riolu exclaims** “[the answer]! That’s where he is!” | The Beach; Beach | Out of breath, they reach the bottom of the hill. Thankfully, Manaphy was floating right there at the edge of the water. Riolu pipes up “Why did you come here by yourself?! You had us both very worried! Manaphy!” Calming down a little, Riolu takes another look at him... right before Manaphy collapses in the sand. “Manaphy! …This isn’t good, Tori. He’s running a high fever. Go get Chatot, I’ll bring him back to Sharpedo Bluff. Hang on, Manaphy!” And he quickly scoops the baby and rushes back. When Tori also arrives with Chatot following closely behind, the fever appears to have gotten worse. Tori tries to use a small Water Gun to cool him down, but it has little effect. Manaphy is in desperate need of medicine. **This item should hopefully cure his illness.** | Phione Dew | Phione Dew can be found in Miracle Sea. Riolu and Tori will go look for it as quickly as possible, while Chatot will look after the sick infant. Though the water-types in the dungeon are tough, some Pokémon sympathise with the dire circumstances and are willing to help. A Qwilfish and a Clamperl help clear the way to the bottom (and join the team), where they find some Phione… who were under attack by a Gyarados. Oh __@#&!__ no. Before Tori could even react, Riolu is already attacking the Atrocious Pokémon. Tori and Shelgon quickly follow up with Superpower and Headbutt, respectively. Dealing significant damage, the moves scared the sea serpent enough to cause it to flee. The Phione express their gratitude by giving team Scavengers exactly what they needed: a Phione Dew. The two rush back and administer the cure. A few hours later, the fever has gone down significantly, and Manaphy is calmly sleeping in his bed. **``/scavenge a few days later…`` to continue.** | A few days later… | Manaphy has thankfully recovered completely from the illness, and is once again playing outside. Tori and Riolu know what must be done, though. They take him down to the beach, where the Northern Sea’s Walrein was waiting to take in Manaphy and help the little guy flourish elsewhere. Riolu and Tori then shifted their attention to Manaphy “From now on, I want you to be good and listen to Walrein.” Fighting back tears, Tori added “Please, don’t forget us as you grow up.” Manaphy of course did not understand, and tried to cheer the two up. “...Riolu? ...Tori?” Not wanting to prolong this any longer, Chatot, Tori and Riolu gave the go-ahead to Walrein to take Manaphy with him. The little guy was scared, looking at his parental figures for support. “We’re going, Manaphy.” As Walrein started dragging the baby to the sea, he started to cry.. “...Tori! … Riolu!” … __And on that somber note, I’ll leave you all for part one of this odyssey. Part two will be done later, so this one doesn’t become too long.__ **For this final question, I want to know Tori’s latest moveset. If a move is not mentioned in this hunt, it is no longer in the moveset of Tori. List alphabetically.** | Aqua Tail, Crunch, Superpower, Water Gun
