    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Alright, glad to get back to the story! After some thinking, I'm putting my vote in for option 3, the fleeing one. I was strongly considering surrendering, in case that might put us in closer contact with someone higher up in Unova's hierarchy, but I feel like it might be hard for us to do...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Decision: Claim. Consider: I'm scared of what this power might do, but I need to use it to protect myself and Lenora! Special Action: Telepathy (target is Weavile) "I was bluffing earlier about remembering my past Weavile, but I wasn't bluffing about needing to know what's going on. If you...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Man, was this an exciting chapter! As mentioned in the discussion, I'm very split between the claim and the restrain options, but I think restrain might be the better idea here, if just because we might only get one shot to interrogate Weavile. Let's see what we might be able to get out of him...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Aww, teamwork :veelove: I loved this part - the cub pulling Cobble into the pouch is both super adorable and also a clever battle strategy! Nice combo, but damn, 4x super effective for only 1 HP... Interesting, why another rock? Is Braviary going for a diversion strategy perhaps? If we can...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Alas :sadbees: That's a really good idea! I'm 100% in favor of doing that once the fight here is over. Maybe we can also try our new Lifesense ability on the footprint too, in case the Pokemon is still nearby! Hmm... so Aura Shield is not the way to go here... Damn, even we're not that...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    When you're too good at your job :sadbees: Oooh, hello? :eyes: A new wild card in the mix... Maybe from one of the other Knights divisions? That we don't know if they're friend or foe is a bit dangerous, they might be some kind of controller or manipulator too. But maybe a new friend? Well...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Huh, interesting! I thought they were ready to fight... But it makes sense if their main goal is just to eliminate us; Lenora's just a distraction to them. It lends credence to what Weavile was saying as true... which is problematic, for a whole number of reasons. In the short term, we have to...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    I am SO glad that Negrek thought to have Lenora give them a fake rock. That could have been a GG for us right there :unquag: Oh I bet! Although, maybe the fact that we're a talking rock already clued her in to us having a... unique background :mewlulz: Honestly, I actually wouldn't be...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    That's the spirit! :quag: Interesting, so we have a history with this particular Druddigon... I wonder what would've happended had we attacked or reacted in some way outright? Given that they say we have a right to know... were we allies of some kind? That implies they're the ones behind the...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Aw thanks, that makes me really happy to hear! :veelove: Namo's engaging premise and rock solid (hehe) writing have gotten me pretty invested, it's become a highlight of my day seeing a new update after work or when I wake up. So glad I checked it out! That is 1000% fair :mewlulz: ----------...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Oh, hehe. Maybe we're not ones to talk huh? :mewlulz: Yes... Haha... A human soul being turned into a Pokemon, imagine that :copyka: we might've just been given a big clue about our Druddigon friend back there. If transforming humans into Pokemon is what we're up against, we might be in some...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    I loved this part so much - I thought it was a 4th wall break for a moment, and especially when I imagine his gaze with the dead, blank, lifeless eyes... that got a proper chill out of me :quag: Kinda spooky too that it seems like they can see us right through our camouflage. That's been our...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    This part confuses me a little - it says Lenora's no longer a gym leader, but then calls her "The Gym Leader, Lenora"? Is it maybe some editing that got accidentally spliced together? The most expensive one :mewlulz: not the biggest, or the closest, or the easiest to catch, but the most...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Oh sweet! We got our HP back and then some. It's a little tricky choosing our next stat - I'm torn between more HP for a little more tankiness, and more Energy to make sure we don't lose the ability to protect ourselves. I think I'm leaning slightly towards Energy, since Rocky Tackle might have...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    All of Kalos being inside a mystery dungeon... that's going to be pretty interesting. I wonder what that looks like for the people living there - I'm almost imagining maybe a kind of horror vibe, where only a handful of fortified towns are safe from the distortion's affects and it's hard to...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Interesting to learn about the Amber Knights - sounds like Millie at least is somewhat resentful of them. I wonder if other people in Unova are too? It's a region with a history of conflict between humans and Pokemon... also interesting to note that our story takes place after the events of both...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    I also favor Rocky Tackle! Doing twice as much damage is a pretty huge advantage, and I don't think an extra 25ft of range would offset that. Plus, @The Walrein raises a very good point about the stealth advantage, most enemies probably aren't expecting a rock to be capable of throwing itself...

    [CYOA] You Are a Rock

    Oh, youuu :okgon: Godamnit, I walked right into that one :mewlulz: even though our character is a rock, I still pictured us sleeping in a bed for some reason. No need for cushioning when you're a rock! ---------------- I'm really conflicted with our decision... I don't buy for a second that...

    That PMD badge tho :eyes: 100% agree on Nacrene City, probably lots of potential new characters too. Let's see what we find! Decision: Go with Millie to Nacrene City Consider: I need to rest and recover my health Telepathy (everyone): "Humans and Pokemon can... talk...?"

    Well, maybe a bit by stats, considering we just lost a 3rd of our HP to Tackle :mewlulz: Special Action: Telepathy (Everyone): "Also, umm... where are we???"
