Windstruck, what do you want to do? You’ve made it clear you have no interest in loot or new Pokémon. You said you wanted hard mode and then decided not to leave town after one fight. What do you want to do?
Hardmode? Yeah, kind of. It's a way of putting some constraints on things for sure... but I'm not going to act completely stupidly suicidal? You have demonstrated multiple times that enemy pokemon straight up just one hit KO our pokemon. Without even any weaknesses. Sometimes doing that to multiple pokemon at once. It's only reasonable to exercise a little caution.

I don't know what I want anymore at this point. I guess I was more interested in some opportunities to explore a bit and RP? That's essentially what I was doing by the way. Flotsam considers Rascal and all the other pokemon with her as dear friends and cares about what they think too. It's not like I was just blatantly asking, "Hey GM, what next do?"
