Test 5.

VERITY

The journey this month has been easier on you in several ways; despite your losses, your numbers have been bolstered by the addition of two more this month, and unlike the unforgiving terrain on the way to Lake Acuity the routes to Lake Verity seem downright hospitable - they're straightforward, the climate is far more temperate, and there are patches of cheer visible here and there along the paths in the form of those brightly-colored flowers, even as you make your way toward the lakefront.

But the lakefront itself is perhaps unsettlingly silent; a reminder, perhaps, of what you're here to do, of the importance of your task.

You'll reach the lake sometime in the evening. The sun isn't down yet, but it looks as though it won't be too long before it dips below the horizon; there's more than enough light for you to see what the lake itself looks like, however - the water is still and clear, to an extent where you can see straight down to the bottom regardless of how deep it gets. There's no bridge or other way to cross over the lake that you can see, but once again there's a large rock formation rising out of the center of the lake and a good-sized opening in the stone, leading to what's likely a system of caverns further inside.

Your exploration starts here, next to the crystal clear waters of Lake Verity; what happens next is up to you.

[Aya takes a few deep breaths as she looks over the scene.]

...I think it's going to be at least a little easier to cross this time? Do we have enough water Pokemon to take us across?

A...at least we don't have to slide on ice this time?

[ever the optimist, this one.]

[ Looks at the lake.

Looks at her Pokemon (giant rock slate, slab of electric concrete, large pink tongue dinosaur, digitalwing duck and floating robot) ... Maybe Miphanus could carry her?

Maybe?

...

So! Let's look to everyone else instead! She could try to swim it but other people have reliable floaters or swimmers, right? ]

[...well, this is certainly better than having to deal with ice.

After studying the waters for a moment, Eustace turns to the group.]


Before anyone jumps in to swim across [he's not putting it past some people] we should get a count of who has Pokemon large enough to potentially ferry us across.

[Looks at her fire-type.

And her ground-type.

And her electric-type.]


This may be a tad bit tricky.

I do not think Bosphoramus [ ... the 30ft long snake made of boulders ] can swim very effectively, or he might carry everyone.

[Aya takes her Marill out of its ball.

Looks at the small blue ball.

Looks at the lake.]


I think Aoi could probably float someone across but it wouldn't be without some issues. If I had thought to buy a swimsuit, that'd be one thing, but...

Miphanus might be able to support one person at a time, but we haven't worked much with that, right?

[ Miphanus sort of beeps an affirmative but it... could try. ]

Rolly's a little small, but he can do it! We've practised before.

[The Spheal blinks sleepily at them.]

Not to be one to complain, but I’m not exactly suited for spatial awareness in water. And I doubt any of mine could carry me.

[ LISTEN, sometimes you gotta make sacrifices when you're on an adventure--

but no, okay, he's not going to do the stupid thing.
]

I can see if Pidge [ his tropius! ] can fly some people towards the rocks. We'll have to jump down from there, but it'll save us some time and distance.

I wish I'd had more time to train up Yu Long; then maybe we would have two Gyarados to work with. [Which would definitely have been sufficient.] That said, they're quite long. If Kiryu's willing to let us borrow Ni, I think most of us would fit on her back.

[Ni being Kiryu's Gyarados, of course.]

[Well. He's got a goat, a pigeon, a donkey, and a fire horse. Yeah, none of his are going to be able to get him across.]

I don't think any of mine are going to be helpful in this case.
thunderwolf: (♦ neutral (the default))

[personal profile] thunderwolf 2018-08-24 05:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm. I wouldn't chance that.

[Rock/Ground-types and water proooobably don't mix.]

I wouldn't doubt that he'll be able to help us down the road, though.

I think that makes three? We just need to account for...well, a lot more.

... Michael and I could use our Haunters to carry people over again?

[I mean, at least this time there's two of them to make this go by faster??]

Yeah, too bad he hasn't evolved yet. We were almost there!

Um...maybe this guy could teleport us to the middle?

[Ah right. The Abra.]

He is surprisingly nimble in rough terrain, yes.

[That gets a nod of approval!]

Should be easy enough for us to handle. Good plan.

[Atsushi just...looks at the two very small Pokémon he has currently with him, an isopod and a skunk.]

Even if they were the right type for it, mine definitely won’t be able to carry anyone...sorry.

[Ironic since one of them actually IS the right type. He just...doesn’t know that yet...]

[ guess we're doing this. keith nod back at eustace before bringing pidge out of her pokeball. anyone ever wanted to ride on a dinosaur's back? ]

She can probably support two people at a time, three at the most. It'll take some time unless we can get more Pokemon, but it'll do. So...start lining up, I guess?
