(Bandits are good eating.)

"Hello, Miss Lovett, I assume? We're headed out to look for some pokemon that have been causing this town issues, and were hoping for potions. Maybe some scraps you can't use in a pie to use as bait, too?"

"Sure. My potions are 3 gold apiece. And I love a good haggling, but dearies, these potions cost me two gold and a quarter. Three is my minimum price. And howabout I just sell you a full pie for 1 silver?"

[Arcran]

"I'll be taking two potions then. A whole pie for a silver as well? Might as well do that," Alvor says, handing over the coin. "Can't have Ruby here getting beat up too bad."

[planswalker]

She takes your coin. "Very good, boys."

[Eshkigal]

"I'll take two potions as well. Say...there isn't something we should look for out there while we search that you could use, is there?"

[planswalker]

"Not really." She says.

[Eshkigal]

"Well, if anything comes to mind, Miss."
He pays the gold for one, before frowning.
"Hm. Just short one gold from feeding my pokemon last night..."

[Arcran]

"I've got you," Alvor says, paying the other gold.

[Eshkigal]

"Thank you Miss."
He pays Miss Lovett the three gold then and picks up his potions.

[planswalker]

"A good day to you, sirs."

[Eshkigal]

With that, Will heads for the outskirts of town with, pokemon riding his shoulders still. With any luck, a third team mate would be joining soon.

[Arcran]

Alvor follows, Ruby under one arm. When they stop he places the pie on the ground to hopefully attract his prey.

[planswalker]

The three of you walk along the woods, and it is not long before y'all see a trio of small pink round pokemon come out of the road and look at y'all, eyeing the pie hungrily.

[Eshkigal]

Will takes the pie and cuts it in half, before cutting one half into three pieces, offering them to the pokemon.
"Here you go."

[planswalker]

They each quickly devour their offered slices.

[Arcran]

"Alright Ruby, time to train!" Alvor says, walking over to the Pokemon. He places Ruby almost right next to the group. "Ruby, Tackle!" he cries. The small rock takes a step then dives towards its enemy.

[planswalker]

You significantly injure the pink puffball, whose illusion breaks to reveal a small black foxlike pokemon.

The other two grow angry, and their illusions are dropped.

Three more black foxes appear from the surrounding brush.

[Eshkigal]

"Alvor, wai-"
Ruby goes ahead and Will sighs. So much for a simple capture.
"I don't suppose you understand me, eh? If so, sorry. If you want to avoid a fight, you can just hop in. Otherwise, I'm siding with m'Lord."
He offers a quartz crystal forward.

Is it round 2? Can I go again?

[Eshkigal]

(Uh...well, sticking with diplomacy to try and catch one zorua, but Errol looks ready to throw down)

[planswalker]

It does not seem interested.

and how I'm doing this is that your attack happened on "turn 0". Now we need to collect everyone's speed data and figure out who goes when.

Ruby probably goes last.

[Eshkigal]

(Errol has 5, Brian has 5, both are out, leading with Errol.)
Will sighs, before looking to Errol.
"Alright, scratch this one. Help Lord Alvor keep from getting swarmed."

Alvor successfully captures the first one.

The five zorua begin by leering at everyone's pokemon. Everyone's defense is lowered 1 combat stage. Ruby is lowered 2 stages.

[Arcran]

Alvor smiles as he catches the creature. "Alright Ruby, take another out!" Alvor cries. The rock heads his command, diving at another (not the one Errol hit if possible or the one Whisper targeted. This one's mine )
