"Uhhh yea what she said... we just want to figure out what all this nonsense is with the water. Show us what is causing it and I'll make sure to take care of them myself. Unless of course you are doing all this. In that case impressive but it needs to stop... NOW!" Horace's expression the entire time is completely unreadable to the point where even he isn't sure whether he is trying to be threatening or not. Horace begins to stare intently at the two pokemon waiting for their response.

The three pokemon slowly rise in to the air, their legs twitching slightly as they do. Two spin slowly, looking around as the third drifts forwards. It looks Karla in the eyes before turning to look out towards the water. (Roll Intuition)

"Well I see you've chosen the best approach to all this... giving into my demands. We will take it from here unless you are brave enough to join us." Horace stares in the direction that the pokemon pointed in order to get a better idea of what they are trying to communicate. 7 intuition

Horace believes that the floating crab-like pokemon is wary of a another, stronger pokemon in that direction. Judging how the other two have ceased spinning and have sunk towards the ground it is probably the leader of the crab pokemon.

"Hmm... We go this way! Thank you for your generous support it will be remembered after this glorious day. Now Karla its time to correct the attitude of this other crab." Horace confidently strides towards where he thinks the leader of the crab people are as he cracks his knuckles. "Ahh its a good day for a prank or two. Don't you think Karla?" Horace releases Gulliver and tells him to scout for their leader and then report back to Horace with how much backup he has. Gulliver giggles before turning invisible and floating quickly in the direction of the crab leader. When he returns he holds up between one and six fingers to tell Horace how many crabs there are.

"Prank of dooooom, maybe?" she grins as she plays along. Before she leaves the other crab things she quickly scans the one that had helped with her Pokédex, in the hopes it might help work out what the big one might be and what types to use. If it's water type I has some decent coverage but... Whatever it says, she catches up to Horace and makes for the big bad with him.

Surprisingly the floating crab pokemon scan as the steel/psychic pokemon called Beldum only known to be found on the Winner's Path of Johto. Despite identifying the pokemon the pokedex is unable to determine it's typing or any other relevant data. Scouting ahead Gulliver finds a larger crab with a horn watching several of its kin dig in the sand.

"Seems like these guys are some variant of Beldum... Normally found all the way in Johto? Well they've come a fair way...", Karla passes on to her partner as they make their way in the direction Gulliver went.

"Well then psychic type... that would explain the disturbance they are making. I say we try to end this diplomatically then when they don't agree we make them." On the way to the crab king Horace hums marching tunes to himself confidently. Once he spies the crab leader he quickly scans him to see if there is anything special about him before staring at Karla waiting for her to try her hand at diplomacy. Horace leans to Karla and whispers "Ohh yea when I said we would try diplomacy I meant you... I've never really been good at making people too happy. But I can support your story with a plethora of believable lies."

Karla slowly approaches the gathering of Pokémon. "Hi there. How are you all doing? I was just coming from the town back there and people are a bit worried about the water disappearing. Would you happen to know anything about that?" she says, as sweetly as she can manage. Rolled 15 on charm

Horace's Pokedex identifies the larger specimen as a Metang and combined with Kara's data identifies the pokemon and the Beldum as being Steel/Water type. The Metang glares at Kara, obviously unimpressed by her talk. In comparison the Beldum are all gazing at her, seemingly enthralled. The Metang spins and makes a threatening motion towards the Beldum, only to be ignored. It mvoes towards them, obviously intending violence.

Seeing the Metang first ignore Karla's request then become Violent Horace motions Gulliver to go in between the Metang and the Beldum he is threatening. Horace's eyes turn black and he begins to glow a little. "I don't really take well to creatures like you... threatening and harming others to get their way. Last time I encountered something like you I made sure they wouldn't hurt anybody. Now stand down or my friend and I will make you." Horace chuckles, "Maybe if you make me angry enough Ill let you meet the last Pokemon that tried to act tough around me."While Horace might look intimidating to an unsuspecting Human at this point his approach isn't well targeted towards a metal creature. Intimidate of 6

The Metang glares at Horace, its eyes shimmering yellow for a brief moment as Horace feels something malevolent press in on his mind. It is clearly about to attack.
Initiatives: 15-Karla 10-Horace 7-Gulliver 5-Metang
Horace is flinched and loses a stage in attack.

Karla makes some use of her previous experience with water types, and blows an extra cold blast at it to freeze-dry it! Then she releases Buggaboo, telling it to make the bad thing spookier. Obeying, Buggaboo releases a deathly aura about the Metang. Sensing it had failed, Buggaboo turns invisible Freeze-Dry, AC roll 5 vs ac 2, 33 Special Ice Damage, calculated as if water were weak to ice for neutral effectiveness vs water/steel. Buggaboo released at init 11, used Trick-or-Treat rolled 3 vs ac 2m, then uses invisibility capability

Horace binds Haunting Curse and runs a bit back. Gulliver attempts to hit the creature with a confuse ray followed up by rubbing some wet sand in it's eyes. "Get him Gulliver! Show him what happens when he messes with me!"
DC 17 Stealth check to not be blinded. The metang is confused.

The Metang is wounded by Karla, tricked by Buggaboo and then blinded and confused by Gulliver. Nevertheless it drifts towards Gulliver and attacks with one of its claws.

Karla focuses on the coldness within her, sending it into one hand. There it coalesces, like a ball of energy, and her fingers actually start to feel numb rather than just cold. She Raises her arm to point at the Metang and wills the energy to shoot out, and a great beam of ice blasts forth. Buggaboo then reappears beside Metang. Like Horace, he is launching a surprise attack! Unlike Horace, his execution was not very good! Ice Beam, Rolled 11 to hit against AC 2, 40 Special Ice type damage, Buggaboo levitated over, dropped invisibility as a free action and then rolled 1 for astonish

Karla's icy attack leaves the Metang injured as Buggaboo goes right over the crabs head. Horace vanishes into the darkness as Gulliver attacks again, striking the Metang down. The Beldum spin in joy to see their oppresor defeated.
(110 experience a piece, plus 1 trainer xp)
It seems one of the Beldum is willing to lead you onwards.
