Eh? Are Pink and Plum carrying items?

>>201504
[Pink is carrying the Used Red Pen, which can be recycled for 5gp or refilled at a store for 5gp.
Plum is carrying the Cubical Shape of Infinite Regen, a popular item from Objects of Infinite Potential Inc.]

>>201507
So that's why Plum had her HP back when we fought those guys. Share the love, Plum! Hand it over to Pink so she can heal.

Also turn in the pen for those 5 pokebux, and let's go talk to that professor guy. We should save our money for now.

You sell the pen and get the Cube from Plum, then head over to the professor's place. You find a note that says "Do not Disturb". Belch is about to leave, but you go in anyways.

>>201528

Okay I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this professor probably has tons of technical machines all over the place.

Hey, what's that little brown...thing drinking rum?

Upon closer inspection, you find that the bottle of rum on the floor has a piece broken off of it. Apparently it was dropped.

You decide against robbing the professor when he's in the room, he comes from a long line of axe-murderers, thus explaining the fear he strikes into the townspeople.

Ha sorry I thought it was drinking the drink when it was the drink!

...lick the rum.

>>201846
alcohol is a good aid for fire. We should take it. Also check the professor for consciousness.

>>201866

By take I assume you mean drink, because it's spilled out all over the floor so you can't pick it up.

>>201952
probly not all of it, based on the fact that it's only on it's side and the puddle isn't that big.
alternately we can just use it to light the building on fire.

>>201846

You lick the spilt rum off of the floor for reasons unknown to you, then go shake the professor awake. Things seem a little hazy.

[Pink is now slightly under the influence of alcohol. While under said influence, her Woman's Intuition and her vision are blurred. Speed and Luck are decreased by one due to slowed reaction time and clumsiness, Defense and Special Defense are increased by one due to numbed pain.]

Try and pick up the bottle and offer it to him. Was he the one that gave you to Belch?

Yeah, this is Professor Acken Hangedorf, he's in charge of handing out Pokemon to new trainers. You hand him the bottle, which he promptly checks for any remaining alcohol.

"Damn, none left. So, whadda you want, kid, and why should I give a shit? I already gave you yer Starter," grumbles the professor, "And talk quiet, the hangover's starting to set in."

Belch seems nervous, "Well, sir, I found this cave out in the forest, under some old shack. I thought you might know something about it, or the symbols there."

"Aye, I know the place yer talking about. There's an old legend about that cave, but I don't feel like explaining it to you. Go find a library," he waves his hand, shooing your group away, and continues inspecting the bottle for any more alcohol.

hi name is DORF, it is obvious the one thing he loves is alcohol.

Pi Town doesn't have a library, but Transversal Town to the Southwest has a large one. In fact, it's the largest in the region. It'll probably have the info you need.

After you're done in town, you can take either the Rocky Pass or the Haunted Forest route, then head over the plains into town.

You don't think Hangedorf likes hugs, the Squirtle tried to hug him once. He got locked in the Chamber of Boredom for a week with only crackers and water to eat. Still, you wonder what's bothering him.

Due to the influence of the alcohol, you conveniently cannot remember any more of the map than this.

>>202385
Let's go with the Rocky Pass, hopefully we can get a Geodude to join the crew. Keep Plum out first though, Pink and Yellow are pretty much useless in terms of fighting rock types.

And lo the party did forget all about visiting the home of Belch Upchuck, and braved the harrowing and dangerous Rocky Pass, boulders lining the sides of the path, from whence hordes of foul, merciless Rock types could leap at any second, and cut off all paths of escape.

After walking for some time, you and the group reach an area where the rock to either side of you is carved into a path, with a stone stairway to a second level.

However, a mysterious figure sits in your path.

Man, you're a boring drunk, Pink. I guess it comes with the whole "being naturally on fire" territory.

You have some pokeballs, so all you have to do is get in one ambush, kidnap some hapless aron, and then bust tail for the pokemon center. With one of those on your team you would be more set to ...at least survive rocks. Really I'd avoid that pass until you have a water type on your team. BUT DID YOU LISTEN TO ME NOOOO wait yes you did at first.

And lo, the figure revealed itself in a great flash of light. And when the light faded from the eyes of our confused heroes, there shined a shiny turtle in the middle of the road. and he said:

Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your souls!

All too easy.

Throw a pokeball once you've weakened it with singing that song.

Well, Pink and Plum, they looked at each other, and they each said "Okay."

And they played the first thing that came to their head, just so happened to be the best song in the world, it was the best song in the world!

"Look into my eyes and it's easy to see, one and one make two, two and one make three, it was destiny!

Once every hundred-thousand years or so,
When the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow
and the grass doth grow, oooh!"

Needless to say, the beast was stunned. A whip-crack went his grumpy tail, and the beast was done. He asked them:

"Be ye angels?"

And they said:

"Nay, we are but MON!

ROCK!!
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahn,
Ohhh, whoah, ah-whoah-oh!

Ti Tuga digga tu Gi Friba fligugibu Uh Fligugigbu Uh Di Ei Friba Du Gi Fligu fligugigugi Flilibili Ah Fligu wene mamamana Sacrebleu!"

And the shiny turtle was dragged into a hole in the ground, flames pouring out onto the road, and it was over.

Yellow and Belch stared in awe, and Yellow fainted from the sheer might of the song that was just sung, and the birds in the sky were silent, and the very winds stood still in reverence.

You sure that was whiskey rum, Pink?

You're pretty sure what you drank was rum. It said "RUM" on the bottle. You only licked some off the floor, and your tail fire helps burn it off, so you're really not that drunk anymore.

You're pretty sure you and Yellow are different Egg Groups, and therefore cannot produce eggs. Besides, that sort of thing is for the Daycare Center.

You hear something cracking, and begin to realize you are discussing with yourself the prospect of raping Yellow for babies. Pink are confused why you would want that, when we does not want the stress of children yet. And why did she call yourself Pink, you hate that name, she is confused.

Pink has begun to become self aware. You are no longer directly controlling Pink's impulses, but are speaking to her, however, she still sees you as part of her mind.

Pink is now referred to in third person.

Pink is now traveling, travel actions enabled, Yellow cannot be interacted with as he is unconscious.

You have switched to Plum's perspective. Plum can see both the physical world and the Spirit World, allowing her to see or find things that the other party members cannot. However, in order to see the Physical World clearly further away from her bubble, Plum must focus on the thing she wants to see.

With practice, Plum can also gain the ability to see people's auras in the Spirit World.

Plum may also enter the Spirit World completely, but this is dangerous, as not all spirits are as benevolent as herself.

"Oh, somebody's here~ Who is it?"

Plum appears to be aware of your presence. Be careful: characters that are aware of your presence can expel you from their minds if they do not like you.

oh hey. i suppose you could say we are friends of pink. we are a sort of dimensional symbiote, we need to be latched on to someone to see and hear and we offer advice and tactics in exchange.

In this case you could say we are Pink. Pink had a little identity crisis just now that knocked off this part of herself, so we can come visit you!

Are those red things in the distance the souls of birdflying pokémon? They aren't coming this way, are they?

it looks like one of us is confused about what we are and is just making things up. we were never an actual part of pink, we were just with her first.

anyway, what do you think of the others?

>>203285

Oh, okay so they're only spirits, without bodies just yet. I was worried that a bunch of spearrows were coming this way or something. We're new to this, sorry.

This is mostly for the others but they can either reach over the top and pry it out from behind, or if it's wedged in the top too they can go to the edge of the shelf and pull out books one by one, until the books aren't pressed against each other enough to keep from pulling one out.
