@Delta44 Hm. Acknowledged. I'll just assume you're somewhere in Pureplain for the moment, then. If you desire to, you're free to return whenever you wish. Good luck with your things, I hope things work out.

@skarsgard Is she, now? Do you have proof to support your statement? XD
@Eklispe *snicker* Not getting rid of it that easily, eh? Alright. Cute enough. Makes me slightly wonder how the world knows a Pokémon is wild or not, because that Wooper was clearly never officially released. Oh, well. Nicely posted!
@Joshua Tamashii Alright. Nicely posted. Now let me dig up the leaving thing I had already previously written to see if it still applies. Since you're heading all the way out, likely not, but heh. Anyway. One more companion, one encouraging conversation and one turnover to a new day. Nice.
And training to a set level. Alright. I did previously only level Pokémon up one or two levels when they say they're training, but you're making it easier for me by defining what level you want them to. Now I'll simply write what it takes to get there and if you can get there on this route. But, I will note that at the very least the new guy might need to be healed a time or two before he can handle some of the Pokémon around. Where would you then go to heal? Heh, the hut in Infested Woods is closer than the Pokémon Center in Pureplain but it charges money, though I won't make you post more times to heal for free. It might cost a little on Amelia's legs, though. Haha.

@Rune_Alchemist We'll keep it as it is. I'll keep writing as I do, you do as you want, and we'll all be fine. Haha.
@Joshua Tamashii@Rune_Alchemist I find the standard movepool of each Pokémon to be largely acceptable for them to know all of, will make for some more flexible and imaginative battling when the Pokémon all know more moves. There's likely going to be some Pokémon with highly exploitative combos due to this, but heh, I sincerely look forward to seeing them. I will note that there are Pokémon that have moves they "learn on level 1" that they can legally only learn by using reminder things, those they won't have. That's just a little something I decided.
We can scratch the majority of the TM moves. Powerful TMs are both extremely rare and I am probably going to have a limit on how many a Pokémon can learn, yes. Also... some of those don't even make sense. An Absol knowing Blizzard, Thunder or Fire Blast? What? It doesn't even have the necessary organs for those. Does it grow new organs to be able to do those moves? I'm very iffy about that. I'll probably allow it if a player pleads enough, but allow me to raise an eyebrow. And the egg-moves I will largely not even consider unless you guys start breeding for them.
@Pikmin Eye Alright, nicely posted. Paddling Bulbasaur does make for an amusing mental image. And, alright. Goldeen engaged. A scene shall be made. Haha.

@Joshua Tamashii So, there. I assumed that Amelia wanted that tiny little Pumpkaboo that had come forth originally based on her reaction, but if that was incorrect then feel free to correct me and do your own thing. It's a pretty inexperienced one, as you might notice. And... yupp, this is the first example of that particular change of mine coming into play. I am not going to limit any Pokémon to only knowing four moves. So, Litwick now knows five. Any complications this causes should be routed to me so I can resolve them. Haha.
@Rune_Alchemist And you get some more things going. Since you're writing the percent health of your Pokémon... should I be writing down in percent how much damage they're taking? I did intend it to be a bit more unclear than that, as we only have eyes to tell the amount of damage with, but, I could do that. Or we could just continue. Yupp.
And yes, I sent that Zigzagoon to Lure entirely for the hilarity of it. Teh-heh.

@Joshua Tamashii - Night
The Pumpkaboo charged forth, confident in its victory, its tiny mouth grinning as it filled itself to shout out at Shuppet for another decisive blow. Seeing how Shuppet wasn’t moving to avoid it, it assumed its victory to be inevitable. And then… Amelia gave her command. Pumpkaboo hadn’t noticed the change in expression.
The super-sized pumpkin opened its mouth to shout as it came in to make impact, but instead it found itself screamed in the face. Screech, a move that amplified the shout of a Pokémon to be earsplitting, was far louder than his little Astonish shout. Shuppets scream was loud enough to cause the whole crowd of watching Pumpkaboos to recoil, even Laurinda and the Gourgeists over there might have twitched a bit, but her opponent took the scream right by the source before it had started to exponentially decrease.
‘KABOO!’ The giant Pumpkaboo recoiled in pain, hardly gifted with anything which it could use to block the sound, and without the sound Astonish was no longer a Ghost-type move and the forward momentum of the pumpkin simply carried it through Shuppet. It quickly tried to spin around to face its opponent once again, but its ears were ringing and defense sharply decreased, it wasn’t able to regain its bearing fast enough before-
Kapof! Shuppet hit into the weakened Pumpkaboo with a super-effective Knock-Off, sending something flying. The pumpkin recoiled, tiny eyes and mouth wide.
‘Kaaaaaaaaa…’ And the big thing fell, making a sound as it impacted the ground and rolled onto its back, staring up into the sky. The battle was over.
Meanwhile, because Pumpkaboo had ran through Shuppet, this placed it between Amelia and her Pokémon, meaning the item that was knocked-off likely came flying towards her in a gentle arc, pretty much perfect for her to catch it.
So, with that, Amelia was victorious. Realizing what had happened, the Pumpkaboos gave a little varied cheer depending on the individual, many looked like they’d cheer regardless of who’d won, really. The tiny pumpkin which had originally come forward to her before the bigger one interrupted came forth and looked at his big brother from the side a little…
‘Pumpka.’ Which pretty much translated to “Thanks for looking out for me”. He then turned and smiled up at Amelia.
‘Pumpkaboo?’ “So, can I come?”
… And to update on the surrounding situation, there’s still Laurinda standing prepared to battle with her Trevenant and Chandelure glaring at a host of four Gourgeists, and a couple more floating about in the background, the Gourgeists looking mostly amused and maybe playful, though Laurinda had warned that they had a tendency to become aggressive. Phantump could probably affirm that, the Gourgeists of Wilted Woods had a tendency to “playfully” attack travellers within, and be pretty merciless while doing so. Though, they mostly appeared to just be observing an amusing situation involving their young, now.

Ralia got off her Double Team without a hitch, doubling up numerous times… but the bubbles were too many to dodge by replicating as they hit pretty much all the duplications anyways. However, as the attack had been spread out, it didn’t do a lot of damage and Bubble was a low-powered move to begin with, but it was an advantage that Froakie had obtained for his team. It wasn’t so annoying so that Ralia couldn’t get off a Growl, however, collectively decreasing the attack of the enemy team. Meditite and Froakie didn’t look particularly bothered, but Mienfoo gave an annoyed stare and then closed its eyes again to Meditate once more.
Ritz picked up Del and carried him, trying to avoid the bubbles. While one or two hit, it only caused superficial damage to the ladybug and Del was protected. However, the moment the two of them emerged from the bubbles out of the shrine, the floating humanoid thrust its hands at them.
‘Meditite!’ And so, with little time to prepare Ritz was hit by Confusion, taking a mental punch from the meditation Pokémon. While perhaps reeling from the hit, Ritz would be able to stay airborne and avoid becoming confused himself with not all that much damage. He has pretty decent special defense. In return, Del started shooting out its strings of web at the opponents. Both Froakie and Mienfoo blinked from their respective actions, shooting bubbles and meditating, and successfully dodged the strings at the cost of stopping what they were doing, Mienfoo unsuccessful with regaining its attack. Meditite, though, couldn’t dodge and settled for protecting its face with its arms, still smirking behind it as it got webbed where it was floating.
‘Froakie! Keep the Ralts forced down, more bubbles! Meditite, Mienfoo, take down the bugs! Confusion, Pound!’ Their trainer commanded, pointing in the directions of the varying targets as she did.
Mienfoo unhappily discarded its attempts at meditation, but instead utilized its speed to chase after Ritz while dodging Del’s webs. It was noticeably faster than Ritz, aiming for a time to jump and Pound. It was slowed down by having to dodge the shots, maybe enough to keep it at bay, but then there was Meditite, who while webbed only needed its mind to use Confusion, and it was smirking and aiming.
Froakie had noticed which Ralia had been hit by bubbles previously, and utilizing considerable speed it jumped closer and sprayed out more tightly focused bubbles in her direction. If she replicated again, he’d spread out his bubbles more to aim for all of them. The intention was not necessarily to take her out, more to ensure she was too busy to help out otherwise.
Around them multiple Chinglings escaped noticing that a battle was breaking out, and they were apparently not interested in participating.
So, Lure was floating around, enjoying her honey…
‘Zig?’ … There sat a Zigzagoon beneath her. It had put down its golden ball on the ground, and then looked up at her, slightly licking its mouth. It had been attracted by the smell of honey, because Zigzagoons have pretty good smell. It wanted some, staring intently at her. It looked extremely unintelligent right about now, a small animal that wanted some of that from the bee.

Litwick grew to Level 7! Litwick learned Fire Spin!
Shuppet grew to Level 6!

Amelia obtained Miracle Seed!

@Spiffy Well. If she's running through dust the wind she creates by moving would stir the dust. It'd move like there's an object there, but that which hits her would vanish as it becomes part of what she's wearing and she curves the light around it. That might be visible in its own way. It's definitely not a situation she wants to be in, as little visible dust and such as possible, haha. But, yes. No worries. We'll play this out and see how it goes.
@Spiffy I'm a little confused how she'd be visible to any observer. I mean... if she was hit by a whole lot of dust, the dust would simply turn invisible along with her because she's keeping the light from her physical body and all on it, though depending on her reflexes that would possibly mean there'd be an unnatural oval emptiness in it if she can't adapt. If she's hit by anything bigger, then they'd be unnaturally stopped, yes, potentially making it clear to an observer that someone's there depending on the circumstances, but she wouldn't become visible unless she somehow lost control.
But, anyways. Acknowledged. Then I know what I wanted to know. Thank you.

@t2wave Oh, man. I really like the investment in Blood Magic/Vitality combo. And Stone-specialization fits that perfectly. Clever. Nice.
@skarsgard At the very least, there is a perk for natural aging, meaning it is common that we live for a very long time. There's also the thing on Interdimensional Tourist, he skips dimensions every hundred years or so and we can go with him if we want to, implying that, well, at least 100 years. Haha.
And, of course, there are numerous references to that Magical Girls come back even if they die, in fact they're locked in an eternal cycle and you need the perk "A Way Out" to escape it. While I do believe our GM has the power to customize this if this doesn't fit the roleplay as he desires it, but that's how it looks from here.
And, well. I'll assume Mariette hasn't been around for too long, or she's inept at her job. But, Asengav's filled her with enough stuff that she's working like an experienced girl, so. Yeah.
