The Legend Run: (Gerard) Mysterious Cove [Completed]

Only Gerard, Its_A_Random, & any required sub-referees, are permitted to post in this thread until the end of this TLR. Any other post made will be deleted, & may be subject to moderation. Thank you.

And so. Everyone's favourite Psyquic has come to terrorise TLR once more. This time? The Mysterious Cove. With THREE Heal Pulse users. Something tells me that this will be a long TLR...Nevertheless, time to see me try in vain to stop the Mexican that is Gerard! Let us see what he brought...

Gerard


TLR Begin!

MYSTERIOUS COVE

"Did you ever hear of the Legends?"

"What Legends?"

"Of Pokémon so rare, so powerful, that their very existence is debated even amongst Pokemon researchers."

"Oh, those legends. What of it?"

"They say there is a cove with a rare Pokemon in it. The Pokémon around there are not particularly strong, & the place itself has been checked time & time again. But people still insist there is a legend there. But it can only be found if you can hear its voice."

"Sounds like a fairy tale. Lay off the whisky."

"Whatever you say. I am heading over there to check it out."

There is a cove hidden deep in a forest that beckons those few chosen ones who seek the legends. In order to get there you will have to cross several kinds of treacherous terrain, but this may be your first chance to get a taste of adventure. A mysterious man meets you at the entrance, signalling you forward. Oddly, it seems like you are the only one who can see them. You ignore the jests of your friends and follow him. You think you have heard him speak before, but you cannot quite remember what his voice sounds like. It strikes you as odd, but you head towards the Mysterious Cove anyway.

Player Options:
a) Enter Mysterious Cove.
b) Leave Mysterious Cove.
​

GERARD

Mysterious Cove - Brush Aside

You eye the cove, & with little knowledge of what is in store for you, you head towards Mysterious Cove.

However, before you can get there, you notice that at this point, the terrain is too rough to get directly into the cove, but to your left, you see a small forest, which while longer, obviously leads into the cove itself. It looked far more friendlier physically, so you decide that the best course of action to take is to venture into the forest. As soon as you start going through the forest in earnest, you hear a voice in your head.

"Be on the lookout." The voice advises you in your mind. "In places like this, the Pokemon are highly territorial. Do not be fooled by their youth, they are wily creatures."

As soon as the sentence finishes, two little critters, native to this forest, crawl out of a tree & notice you! Thinking you were an intruder, the two bugs pounce & attack you, forcing you to send in your three Pokémon! With the stage set, the battle would begin in earnest.

Yup. Everything goes according to plan. Though Wilde did have to finish the job off with Confusion, the Lackeys managed to deal a total of a whopping 18 Damage to your team! Nevertheless, you were troubled little & won the battle in a round. After the battle, you group up your team again, & then set forth, deeper into the forest.

Mysterious Cove - Spider Vein

Walking deeper into the forest, you notice everything was getting darker & darker, & you get the feeling that there were bugs watching you left, right, & centre. There is a lot of webbing around the area, as if this was a spider domain, but eventually, you come across a tree containing three, ripe Oran Berries, & seemingly, there is nothing around it. The Oran Berries look ready to be plucked, & you know that these supplies could help along the way.

"Ooh, looks like you have come across a role-playing scenario..." A voice says to you in your head. "You need to be careful, as each action may come with consequences..."

Nevertheless, you are forced to weigh your options up. What shall you do?

a) Grab the Oran Berries.
b) Continue through the forest.

Mysterious Cove - Spider Vein

Not interested in the Oran Berries, you decide to leave them there & move on...When suddenly, you come across a Masquerain, who blasts the area with water creating a narrow strip of passable land only one of your Pokémon can cross at a time! Looks like it will have to face it on its own.

"Heh, I did not think there were many of those around. That is a Rare Encounter." The voice in your head repeats. "Some Pokémon do not come out much, but they are pretty strong. You can only send one of your Pokémon after them though. Trust me, it could have been worse..."

Who do you send in?

Mysterious Cove - Fish, Maw

Continuing through the forest, you wonder when all this forest is going to end. Soon enough, you see what appears to be "light at the end of the tunnel" & you rush to the exit. It was indeed, the end of the forest! Where you are situated now, is the mouth of the Mysterious Cove itself. It appears to be low tide, as two rock paths barely sticking up out of the water are the only way in. Their winding nature makes them look like long whiskers. Looking closely at the water, you can tell it is slightly illuminated, though you do not know why. At this point, you spot (POKEMON), & they spot you. Thinking you are an intruder, the three wild Pokémon attack you, forcing you to send in your Pokémon.

"Welcome to a nest. What these Pokémon lack in strength they make up for in numbers. Plan carefully." A voice in your head advises you. "If you are not careful, they can deal a lot of damage..."

And with that, you stare into the nest, & the battle was on.
