doglog - backdated to the 9th - closed

WHO: archie, may, manabu, niko and adachi
WHERE: heropa 001
WHEN: afternoon/evening of the 9th
WHAT: if you want pups, you better impress the two pokémon trainers who own them
WARNINGS: none atm will update as needed



[the die have been cast. the owners picked.

archie sits on the floor of the living room, having moved all the furniture out the way, made a little makeshift bed for the poochyena puppies. they're both asleep, and he is casually writing something down on a pad. he glances over to may, stone faced.

if there is one thing he is taking seriously, it's who these dogs are going to. one slip up and you're banned.

...from owning them.]
siriusly: (actually that's not okay but uh)

[well.

well that breaks up the confused, increasingly concerned look from Manabu, who startles a bit at the interjection, looking between them before back at Niko, frowning deeply.]


Um...no, actually. Are...you saying I should look out for ants and bees? [and...judo masters?]

What? [Shot back at Archie. HE'S NOT BEING A DICK! Really.

Anyway, he's now racking his brains, because while it was explained formally way back when he first started school, he had all the general basics of it already.

No - the animals of this world don't have Types. What Typing means is it effects what the pokemon is strong against, weak to, and what doesn't affect it. Dark is immune to anything Psychic.

[At least as far as he knows.]

[Manabu lets out a little, relieved breath, thankful Archie can steer conversation. still, his brow pinches in an apologetic way when he looks back at Niko. it's not Manabu's fault in not knowing, but it does seem to be a bother to be so uninformed in all this.

he straightens back up when he realizes he's starting to slouch with that guilt.]
Mm, right. I...that is, if I'm actually picked, then I want to know as much as I can to make sure it's taken care for properly. I don't like the idea of having to half-ass anything when there's resources right here to help.
namesaquestion: (You all suck)

[All Archie's response will get is an eyeroll. Just because they're going to be pets doesn't mean the new owners should be in the dark about the other - the better - side of pokemon.

The abilities though... He frowns, squinting in thought.
] I'm not an expert - we don't have wild ones in Johto or Kanto, but I know from what I've read or seen that they're persistent things when they want to be. They typically have 'Run Away' as their ability, meaning they're good at escaping, typically in battle, but probably in general too.

They evolve at level 18, but if you're not actively battling, then you shouldn't have to worry about that.
siriusly: (b but i didn't mean to i mean i uh um)

[personal profile] siriusly 2017-08-26 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh-- [blink.] Sorry, wait... The run away part? They'll just up and do that? [frowning, he folds his arms and thinks about it.] Well, guess it's good there's a fence at the house...
namesaquestion: (As gods we shaped our world)

Sorry for the slow /)(\

[Sorry Archie. He's trying, at least?

Even if he groans because this is like. primary school stuff for him.
] It's Run Away, not run away. It means they have an easier time escaping from battle with wild pokemon.

[Shrug.] Uh... Probably?
siriusly: (those are sugar-free gummi bears)

nawwww ur fine

[personal profile] siriusly 2017-09-02 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[...,]

A-ah...right. [another awkward beat, before he looks down, then starts fidgeting where he sits. the communicator comes out, and his eyes stay glued on it while he taps.] I better be taking notes...
namesaquestion: (When all is lost and daylight ends)

Hmph, they help, but so does experience. At least you don't have to study for tests or stuff.

[He huffs before scratching his head.

Teaching is hard, even if he is trying.

Uh. What else do you know?
