Seasalt caverns [@PKMNB0Y] The Zubat menacingly floated near the pair, flapping their wings and screeching irritably. If he had been only a few seconds later, there was a good chance that they’d be attacking him. However, before any of them could, the Rotom Dex would let out a high pitched screech. The three Zubats recoiled in seeming pain, their fluttering and wing flaps becoming erratic and causing them to crash and lose their sense of direction for a brief moment, giving Richard just enough time to book it past them. Heavy footfalls echoed off the cavern walls. Richard would at least take note of a few more pokemon in his mad dash further in. A few barboach leaping out of the river and shallow, muddy puddles of water. He’d almost trip over a Nacli on his way deeper in, and a rather Irritable Binacle gave him a glare as he’d pushed deeper into the Seasalt caverns… Soon enough, though, Richard would find himself much further underground. Good news, he had lost the Zubats. As soon as Richard would near a particular cave path that led further down that was near a waterfall, they’d shriek and turn back, seemingly unwilling to go past down there with him. Bad news though, was that he likely hadn’t been paying attention to where he was or how he got here. At least he was safe for now, though. A few curious Nacli were staring at him from a perch on a rocky shelf. The aforementioned waterfall seemed to fall deep into the earth below. [hider=Possible Actions] Retrace your steps and try heading back up? The Zubat are…probably fine now. Maybe. You’ll probably run into a few pokemon on your way out. Train pokemon in the current area? Who knows, maybe you could get a few quick levels here. Look for pokemon. Who knows, maybe you could find something neat here. If so, describe how you search and if you’re looking for anything in particular. Random event (Want to bully the GM? Ask him to make a random encounter for you that isn’t any of the above or below. Quality will vary.) You could always go deeper. There's a small path that winds down under the waterfall. Sea Salt Caverns known Pokemon: 1. Nacli 2. Binacle 3. Magikarp 4. Barboach 5. Zubat [/hider] [hr] [@Thayr] Route 1 -> Pines End With a new partner in hand, Isla would thus head back down Route 1, the quiet natural trail being easy to navigate until eventually she’d arrive at her destination. [center][h3]~Pines End~[/h3] [img]https://i.imgur.com/TtTkQgb.jpg[/img][/center] Stepping out of the Winding wood, Isla would find herself standing on the outskirts of Pines End. Named aptly, as this is where the forest stopped and the plains began. Small houses dotted the landscape, large wind turbines cresting many hills, harvesting power as gently rolling farmland spread out in the distance. The small town wasn’t known for anything spectacular aside from its sleepy atmosphere and being a popular getaway for those that still wanted modern amenities while being closer to nature. The only claim to fame the town had was the ancient shrine to an ancient pokemon. There was the large hotel too, which recently opened that promised a good night's sleep, even if you were having trouble sleeping. Apparently they claimed their beds were so good you could sleep for days… [hider=Some actions/locations you could go to] 1. Find pokemon (Specify if you’re looking for anything in particular or how you look) 2. Find trainers to battle (Probably not hard to find other trainers to battle here of varying skill levels) 3. Train pokemon. (Skip the grind, and we get to the result. Tell me how you train and if you just grind wild mon or some other creative training) 4. Move along. (Don’t want to engage with anything and move quickly to the next destination? Go ahead, then. A few events may prevent this.) 5. Random event (Want to bully the GM? Ask him to make a random encounter for you that isn’t any of the above or below. Quality will vary.) 6. There’s that old Shrine here, if you want to visit. You could see Camila here from not too far away, if you wanted too. 7. The Hotel is also an option if you wanted a place to rest. 8. Alternatively, you can always head back to Route 1 and the forest. [/hider] Wailords Rest [@Bartimaeus][@Crusader Lord] Urban Exploration “Well, good job on that win there, Missy!” Beryl said as Clarissa would return to her table. The food was still fresh and hot, and Wobby would give a friendly salute and his usual Wobbufet. “Them bettin folk sure are happy. Not every day the Gym Leader fights and not every day someone can beat ‘em so easily. Granted, that matchup was pretty poor once that fightin’ move came out, eh?” Beryl grinned, giving Clarissa a wink. “You need anything else, lemme or Wobby here know. I gotta get back to the kitchen.” The rest of the meal would pass without incident, and there wasn’t much else to do in the cafe unless she wanted to go bother what was said to be someone that worked for Keira. Maybe taking a bet could be a good idea? Probably not, really though. Either way, once she finished her meal she and Riley should he want to, could easily head back out. It was getting a bit on in the day, so finding the Murkrow likely wouldn’t be much harder, though they’d still need to keep Beryls words in mind - nesting on the roof of a nearby old toy factory. Should be fine to go poking around there. [hider=Possible Actions] Find pokemon (Specify if you’re looking for anything in particular or how you look) Find trainers to battle (There might be a few people here looking to tussle, especially the sailors.) The Resort and Commercial districts can be easily accessed from here. The residentials a bit of a walk. Area Specific: Order some food? Area Specific: Head to the old Toy Factory? Random event (Want to bully the GM? Ask him to make a random encounter for you that isn’t any of the above or below. Quality will vary.) [/hider]
