"Thank you."

For the hour that Collin is getting his magikarp tutored, he'll spend the time training Ahti, his weedle. He will have her practice her accuracy with her poison sting and get used to climbing up places with her threaded capability.

Blake shrugs at the man and says, "Thanks... but I'll pass for the moment... if I change my mind, I'll get back to you." Heading off, he finds the active PCs and switches out Varen for Rak. Releasing the Krabby, he looks around for some rocks or rubble that can be used to train the Pokemon, having the Krabby work on strengthening its grip by crushing the rubble in its claws.

Mueki beamed at Dave. "Thanks! I'll take good care of it."

Mueki did not have any Pokemon that could learn Bounce, so she politely declined the offer. She did, however, seek out one of the Gym Trainers. "Hi, um, I had heard that to be a member of the Gym you need a Dark Type Pokemon? I don't have one, so..." She bit her lip, nervous about asking for one of their Pokemon.

Dave goes to do more throwing drills with peach using his newfound knack for throwing to push and inspire her to throw further and higher than before.

Mueki:
The gym trainer looks at Mueki as she spoke to him. "Eh? You don't have one? Well, we can't really spare a lot of pokémon right now, but maybe Andrew or Taylor has a spare egg they can give you. They should both be around here somewhere. Just tell them what you need and if they have anything available, they should give it to you." The time is around 5:00 PM.

Everyone Else:
Training Validated. By the time you finish training your pokémon, the time is around 6:00 PM, and you're feeling a bit hungry. When Collin goes to get Isonade, he finds that the man has kept his word, the fish leaping distances much higher than you have ever seen from her before.

Ahti evolves from the experience of her training. The newly-evolved kakuna seems satisfied with herself.

Happy with her progress, Collin will see about eating dinner in the Arena.

Mueki nods and goes to the breeding center, intent on getting a second Pokemon Egg. She immediately seeks out Andrew, breathing deep and mustering her courage. "Andrew. Hi! Ummm... I was wondering, you know, since I'm with the exploration team now, um, that means I'm a Gym Member right? And, well, I don't have a Dark Type Pokemon, so, I mean, if you happen to have a spare, um, and it's not too much of a bother..."

Her rambling shyness, at that point, imploded in upon itself and she dissolved into inaudible mumbling, looking down at her feet and hiding her flushed face with her bangs.

Dave:
When you go to the arena for food, everyone seems happy to see you, with children thanking you, and the mood generally happier than it has been lately. Afterward, Vanessa gives you a single Basic Ball made from the Red Apricorn, and returns your Black Apricorn, telling you that she'll need more time if you still want the Blue Apricorn turned into a ball. The time is now around 6:30 PM

Mueki:
Andrew looks at you. "Oh, right. Yeah, I guess you'll need one. Um, I hatched this this morning, but it's not getting along too well with me. Maybe you'll be better off with it." Andrew hands you a pokéball, and gets back to his work.The time is now around 5:30 PM, and you're starting to get a bit hungry.

Collin will spend about 15 minutes entertaining the children with the story of how they fought three gyarados, embellishing it to make them seem more heroic than they really felt at the time. After finishing up with a description of how Mueki used her snake to ensure that they would not be bothered by them again, Collin will wander around outside the arena for a little bit, seeing if there are any more wild pokemon roaming dangerously close. As he walks, he muses over how connected with the Earth he has felt ever since coming to this island.

Blake heads over to see about getting some food, and after eating looks around to see if anyone has started accepting money again for anything useful yet.

Mueki left and released her newest Pokemon, taking in the odd looking Pokemon with trepidation. "Hi. My name is Mueki. Hmm... I can't think of a name yet, but it's nice to meet you regardless."

Mueki returned her newest Pokemon and went to the mess hall to assist in feeding everyone. She makes a few portions, making sure she tracked down her three companions and giving them their food personally with a big smile.
Home Cooking: (1d4+4)[8]

Mueki eventually gravitated towards Collin, finding him and silently walking next to him around the perimeter. She muses about her companion, thinking of his good qualities, his strength and courage. She glanced at him, lost in his thoughts, and flushes slightly, the red light of dusk concealing it.

Wild Roll:(1d100)[74]

With the kids entertained, his belly full, and his arms tired Dave heads to the workshop to see if he can turn some scrap metal into some more improvised throwing knives so he doesn't waste his good ones on a fight he has to run away from. he is willing to help the mechanics with whatever they are working on in exchange for the materials and use of some tools.

Mueki:
You finish eating and feeding everyone around 6:30 PM. You find Collin just as he's wandering out of the camp.

Mueki & Collin:
Collin's connection with the earth leads him to find a small dark-blue dragon near the camp, while Mueki spots a Rattata hiding nearby.

Blake:

After your meal, you manage to find a a man with a large bear pokémon hiding behind the tents selling items. "Hey kid, lookin to buy somethin?"

Dave:
The mechanics seem glad for the help, and provide you with the materials and tools you need in order to make your weapons.

Mueki called out Matowaritsuku, the Ekans hissing at the rat Pokemon. "Mato, Glare!"

Not at laptop, could someone roll for me? I don't have numbers on hand.

Collin & Mueki:
After Isonade begins her leap, the rat rushes in and tackles Mueki's snake, who responds with a menacing glare, stopping the rat in it's tracks. The dragon, not seeming to understand why the fish jumped, roars in Collin's direction, striking him with a small twister.

Dave:
You manage to make some good knives. Not as good as the ones you have, but at least it's extra ammo.

Mueki furrows her brow in worry at the hard hit Mato took but then firmed her resolve. "Mato, use your Poison Sting to weaken it!" After the attack impacted it, she prepped and threw a Pokeball to capture the rodent Pokemon.

Damage: (1d6+19)[22]

For the upteenth time today, Collin is attacked by a pokemon...

He'll respond by throwing a rock at the dragon thingy and he'll remember to scan both 'mons.

ac 6 - (d20)[19]
physical normal - (d10+7)[17]

Isonade lands on top of the dragon-thing.

ac 4 - (d20)[14]
physical flying - (3d12+6)[26]

Dave:
As you head towards the gym, you spot Mueki and Collin fighting a pair of pokémon not far from the arena, just in time to see a Rattata get sucked into Mueki's pokéball.

Mueki & Collin:
Collin's rock strikes the dragon just before Isonade lands on it. While they fight the dragon, Mueki's rat is immobilized by Matowaritsuku's glare, and the snake strikes it with poison, followed shortly by Mueki's Poké ball, ensnaring the rat and sealing shut. Clearly angry at being hit, the Dragon takes a deep breath and breathes a searing flame at Isonade, knocking her out.

Collin will throw his ultraball to catch it.

If that fails, he'll call out Rhea, whom he will order to curl up defensively.

Blake:
The others don't seem to be around the arena, but just as you head outside, you notice the others mid-battle.

Everyone Else:
The dragon easily avoids Collin's ball, and it smashes into the wall, breaking. Mueki's snake glares at the dragon, freezing it just as well as it had done to the rat. Rhea responds by curling up into a ball, protecting herself from the dragon's attack, which doesn't come because said dragon is frozen in fear of Matowaritsuku.
