[PokéStar Studios] Labyrinth (akela | Maxim | Rainman Legends) - Pledge Forest [Done want Feedback]

[Maxim]

"AHA! A metal thing. LET'S BREAK IT!"

"Given how well that worked last time, we shouldn't try that at all. We can at least inspect the device to see if we can activate the mechanism though."

"Aw man, you never let me have any fun..." Q_Q

Inspect the metal device to the south.

 

[Rainman Legends]

Headbutt the Oran Tree to knock down some berries, make sure to feed some to the Zigzagoon

 

[akela]

We really need to work on this communication outside of this thread thing IAR suggested.

Stand in place, staying on alert.

--------------------

Maxim and his Salamence head to the south exit to view the metal object. The object looks like one solid block that is big enough to block the road but it seems to be fragile enough that you can break it down. Maxim also notices lines high above the device. What could this mean?

Meanwhile, as akela and Maebure stand guard, Rainman Legends orders his Dragonite to headbutt the Oran Berry tree. An Oran Berry falls off which Rainman Legends feeds to the Zigzagoon. After eating it, the Zigzagoon feels much better and starts walking around the place! Luckily the Munchlax turns a blind eye to this as it picks a Pecha Berry from the Pecha Berry tree and wolfs it down before getting ready for its next meal.

What will our trainers do now?

--------------------

Figuring that dealing with the metal object is a bad idea and that there is not much else to do in the orchard, the explorers head back where they came from to the deep parts of the Pledge Forest. The Munchlax sees this as an opportunity to eat a Pecha Berry from the tree, looking to continue its meal.

You come back to the room you were in and not much as changed. The Stantler gives akela a little glare and the Teddiursa are snacking on the honey in the felled honey tree. A boulder still blocks the western path and there is still a door blocking the north. You can hear buzzing from somewhere and it is visibly louder than it was when you previously left the room.

What will the protagonists do this time?

--------------------

Yes Maxim there is a golden pedestal next to the door with a hole in it. Clearly it looks like a puzzle similar to the door back on the high ledges. Meanwhile Rainman Legends and akela idle when a Vespiquen shows up flanked by two Combee! The Vespiquen clearly looks angry that her honey tree was chopped down and looks like she will remain hostile for a long time. It seems like the Vespiquen has assumed the two Teddiursa—who are oblivious to the buzzing and the presence of the queen bee—to be the culprit as the two Teddiursa lick the honey. The Stantler meanwhile turns an eye to the new intruders but simply goes back to eating grass like usual.

What will our forest dwellers do now?

[Maxim]

"Can we beat these ones up?"

"They don't look particularly hostile yet, so no. If they do decide to attack us go ahead but until then attacking them will be met with severe punishment. If you really want something to smash, how about working on that boulder there? My companions might disagree but I see no other way forward. Honestly these two are much too cautious for my liking."

Inspect the boulder to the western path to ensure that it is not a Golem or similar in disguise. If not a Golem, then use Brick Break on the Boulder."

--------------------

Maxim inspects the boulder and clearly sees that it is not a Golem by the colour of the boulder. So the Salamence attacks it with Brick Break. The attack deals a lot of damage to the boulder and cracks appear. Maybe another attack could finish it off!

Meanwhile, seeing the Teddiursa in trouble, akela and Rainman Legends order their Pokémon to attack the uninvited guests, grabbing their attention!

NOTE: Pokémon in Combat: Both Combee, Vespiquen, Pinsir, Dragonite

|

"Bzzzz!" | "What are they doing?! Attack those fools!" | "Bzzzz!"

Combee A: Air Cutter > Air Cutter

Vespiquen: Acrobatics (Maebure) > Air Cutter

Combee B: Air Cutter > Air Cutter​

The Vespiquen and her lackeys turn on the two attackers, only to be met with a barrage of rocks that flinched and critted the pursuers to their miserable death. Who could have predicted such massive luck that went the way of our protagonists? And who said 2v3 was unfair?

The Teddiursa notice the combat and wondered what was going on before going back to licking honey. The Stantler watched from a distance but saw nothing extraordinary and ate more grass.

What will these three do now?

While Rainman Legends and akela chill out with their Pokémon, Maxim the independent—who akela seems to be starting to think is a Leeroy—decides to be of help to the squad as his Salamence breaks the boulder with one swing of the head. The Salamence did not enjoy ramming the boulder but at least the path is clear to the west now... even if there is a bit of debris from the impact. Nothing much changes with the Teddiursa and the Stantler however, who turn a blind eye to the breaking.

What actions will our explorers take with this new development?

--------------------

Seeing the new path, the whole squad heads down the new path, minding the rocky debris that was once the boulder blocking the path.

The team of three find themselves in a dead-end circular room bordered by shrubby bush that sprouts up to a metre tall in height with the typical forest backdrop of trees everywhere and no real view of the sky thanks to the canopy. In the middle of the room however, there are three treasure chests that seem to have no lock on them as if they are conveniently placed. You could open them, you could not. They could have traps, they could not. Maebure however detects the presence of something hiding in the bush. What could this mean?

How does the team handle this predicament?
