Wally (thinking): Okay, stay on him. Let's go over near him to where he can overhear us and talk about it. Let's see what he thinks when he hears what I say.
Wally and Sam head over near to the bald guy but not too close to be obvious.
Wally: Did you hear, man? Someone rubbed poop all over the Poké Mart.

Sam shares what the man was thinking.
Wally (thinking): Hmm. He's not focused on where the guilty party normally would be. He must not be the guy. Let's go back to the bar and sit. You can scan the room for a bit longer and, if you don't pick up anything useful, we can probably rule out everyone here as a suspect.

Sam walks around a bit, and then joins Wally at the counter.
Sam (Telepathically): Wally; that's the guy right there, between the pool table and counter! Overhearing our conversation got him to reminiscing about it! In fact, his reminiscence includes the part about him pooping in a bucket to prepare, and a bit where he wasn't sure how to spell a word he wrote on the mart!
[OOC: I apologize for an awkward approach to this. I'm not sure how powerful mind-reading is, or should be, so I had a variety of ideas for this, such as thoughts being able to be triggered by events, but I feel I have too much homework to develop a deep investigation scenario that in itself lasts many posts, so this is truly the guy you want; let's get to apprehension and hopefully so can make time for this speed up a bit.]

[OOC: Sorry if you're not having fun or you don't feel like you build up this encounter enough. I'm quite enjoying it.]
Wally (thinking): Sam, you're an angel. You've got to try and teach me how to do what you do one of these days. Okay, I've got another idea. Same thing again. Follow my lead.
Wally gets up and goes to the bar to retrieve some sort of appropriate item - a toothpick, a couple of peanuts, etc., whatever would seem natural - and makes sure to walk toward the staircase(?) after that with Sam in tow, talking to him while they walk. The juiciest parts of what he says are timed to be overheard by the Mad Pooper.
Wally: After we leave here, Sam, I really want to try and do what we can to find the person who smeared the poo on the market. The local police are trying to find them to give them a reward. I know, that makes no sense, right? Well, apparently while they were checking out the scene, they found some sort of clue that helped them solve a cold case, so they're actually grateful for the poo and want to reward the pooper. They're even offering a smaller reward to anyone that helps them locate the pooper, and that's what I'm after.

[OOC: Thanks for telling me that you're enjoying it; I was worried about that. Also yes; that's a staircase. More is on the way.]

Soon after Wally's statement, the "Mad Pooper" abruptly walks out of the saloon. He says nothing but Sam telepathically confirms that he bought the ruse. Meanwhile, that other bald man with body odor finally succumbs to his urge to go and grope Crystal's rear. She seems to be anticipating that, because she rapidly jumps up and backhands his arm, nearly breaking it. Crystal: Back off, you ugly, stinky brute! Groper: Now now; that ain't nice, purty girl! C'mon gang, let's teach her some manners! drive.google.com/file/d/1m85pAeWkoN8-EgiXOdeLa09mpnKnUVtA/view?usp=sharingBattle! Human initiative is Crystal, Wally, Sam, Roughneck Whacker (the one left by the pool table), Roughneck Scalp (the one by Crystal), Roughneck Chrome (the one by the card table), Tynamo (if Wally chooses to use it). [ OOC: Crystal's turn is coming up.]

Wally pulls Tynamo from his coat pocket and tosses it 3 spaces to the east so that it lands right behind Whacker.

[OOC: I just noticed that I hadn't altered the house rules about throwing balls any. So for the moment I'll allow this to be 7+strength modifier, but I'm still considering what it should be.]

Tapper: Whoa; using a Pokemon to break up bar fights! Why didn't I think of that?! The bouncer flees out the door in terror! Some bouncer he is! Sam uses Extrasensory on Whacker! Whacker: You little shit! Whacker whacks Sam with a pool cue! Scalp punches at Crystal, but she dodges! Chrome rushes over to help him, and successfully lands a punch on Crystal! drive.google.com/file/d/1TvKsyWnPtJ9DXsXdbUXzRAip2aFAljhC/view?usp=sharing

Tynamo uses Charge Beam on Whacker. (Let me know if the Accuracy Check is between 11 and 20.)

[OOC: No, though it hit. By the way, half of Wally's Pokemon seem to have vanished from the sheet, did you do something to their tabs?]

[OOC: Yes. I deleted those tabs because I have no intention of ever using those Pokémon, but first I added all the important info to the 'Pokémon in PC Storage' section of the 'Item Bag' tab.]

Wally shifts 1 West and 1 South to try and use the pool table as cover.

Wally has Tynamo help from a distance now, targeting Scalp with Thunder Wave.
