Rules: Periodically I'll ask for input on what you, Ron (and ONLY Ron), should do. When input is required, I will ask for a set of a few numbers. 5 minutes after asking for those numbers, the LAST post ending in one of the requested numbers will have their suggestion taken for Ron's action. Only posts made AFTER the post asking for a # will count. Other characters will move autonomously, acting of their own will, though you can make suggestions for them.
Dubs and trips will now be counted as 'bonus' or 'add-on' actions, actions that Ron will take, so long as they don't conflict or detract away from the main roll. Dubs and trips (or better) can be countered with dubs (or better) of opposite even-odd (ie, 44 can be countered with 11, 33, 55, etc.)
Other rules: -"Get bragging" will now be ignored. (These trips say x, If quads, x will happen)
-"Securing" is no longer allowed. Attempts to secure an action by use of dubs or better will now result in the original action being nullified and moving to the next-most qualified roll.

Keep note that actions can only be performed within the realm of plausibility. You can't pull out items you don't have, you can't use moves you don't know, you can't willingly try to kill yourself etc. etc.

Osha: Who was that?

Amaura: Uhm... Archeops, I think. I don't really know it very well, but I've heard from the others that it's almost always working on some scheme or skeevy plan. I guess we should be wary.

>What would you like to do? 2, 7, 9

>>32879610
Follow Archeops

>>32879610
Put on your flying armor in case there's any pitfalls, then glide on over to the stairs.

Archeops: I'll tell you kids one last time- Buzz off! You can't be here right now.

Egg?: W-why? We weren't bothering anyone!

Archeops: Rrrg! Don't let things get messy here kids, I've cracked open and eaten harder eggs than you.

Egg?: I'm not even an egg anymore!

>What will you do? 1, 4, 8

>>32879727
Offer to cook the eggs for archeops, lets get on its good side

>>32879727
Have one group confront him and the other sneak around while distracted. That other group will infiltrate or something like that. High CHA for talk. High Sneak for lurking.

>>32879727
Tell Archeops to leave those kids alone

>>32879742
Re, but Ron and Jack lurk while Osha and Nibbles talk. Aumaura and Celebi can choose.

Also be reasonable when talking. Try to coax Archeops into being sensible and away from being rash.

Make Osha use the pink armor and tell Archeops to chill

>>32879742
>>32879757

Amaura: What are you up to Archeops?

Archeops: None of your business! Now leave before this has to get ugly!

Why didn't this update?

Anyways we should probably kick his ass and interrogate him (the Archeops).

>>32879889
Make sure that we strike all at once with great force. Archeops are defeatists, so if they get overwhelmed with shock and awe, they'll give up even if they can still physically fight.

>>32879857
Have everyone attack archeops at once

>>32879857
Say "ugly like your filthy mother" and then this >>32879904

re, but open up the assault with a rollout to pin him to the ground, then have Osha use Razor Shell before the rest gang up.

>>32879867
NO NEED TO SHOUT AAAAA

>>32879857
Warn everyone about the blub behind Archeops and send Jack and Nibbles to tackle it.

>>32879924
Oh fuck! Use the Archeops as a poultry shield!

Archeops: I know but-

Carracosta: They hit you once and you flopped over like a magikarp? Man I nearly froze my shell off dragging this thing all this way and all you had to do was take one damn hit.

Osha: 'Scuse me, but what exactly is this thing?

Carracosta: It's our ticket to ruling this stupid dirt mount.

Carracosta: Tyrantrum? Nah, he's small potatoes compared to what truly lurks in the depths of these caves. Huge, powerful pokemon the likes of which you've never seen! Bigger and stronger than you can imagine!

Amaura: What? Are they giants?

Carracosta: They might be! And the power in this thing will give us that massive strength! And it's OURS. You won't lay a hand on it, you hear?

>What would you like to do? 2, 4, 0

Carracosta: How? Don't you feel the immense power radiating from this thing? When I first found it, it was in the mouth of a Wailord that had been frozen solid by it. I saw it freeze a freeze and shatter a whole school of Relicanth! With that kind of power, even legendary pokemon would quake with fear!

>Nibbles is in plain view and can't freely sneak without being noticed, but with the use of his ghost armor, Jack manages to sneak around unnoticed and waits for your signal.

>2, 5, 6 next

Wow, we actually used the ghost armor!

>>32880264
blame OP for not giving everyone a free ghost armor

Get archeops to move away from the Ice Ball, then jack attacks carracosta

>>32880264
Ask him what he is going to do to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands or going out of control. "Gotta make sure you aren't hoist by your own petard." Strategy hints

Have Jack target Archeops, but do not strike yet.

>>32880264
Continue interrogating them on how they're going to control it, then give a secret signal for Jack to strike. While they're busy with him go in for a team attack.

>>32880264
ask them if anything is missing

>>32880301
do this, but prepare for >>32880299 and >>32880302

Carracosta: Control it? I should think it's obvious. We'll grab that blowhard Tyrantrum and drag him before the legendary and show it the power of this ice ball and freeze that dino solid and shatter him into pieces. The legendary should get the idea.

Fire up that ice ball. Worst case scenario we probably aggrevate Carracosta, which will make him lose focus on the horde

>>32880533
re, but get the other to stay back in case it explodes or something

>>32880520
Okay, those cracks under the ball are definitely growing. Move the ice ball somewhere else before it makes a hole in the ground. Burn it, tackle it, just do whatever it takes to move it.

Since, you know, I would never typo something like that.

Thanks for the thread as always OP!

Next session: Get Archeops back up, apologize for being overly-militaristic, and try to get on his good side. Don't propose recruiting him, but try to make it a goal.
Also note about the hole and the ice ball.
