Silver has acquired the following types of berries from Chance's kissing bingo game. For now they'll be in pots in his room, but when they get bigger he'll probably transplant them into Onyx's garden pending Maleficent's approval. They have successfully been transplanted as of Day 199. Pokémon self-sufficiency, yaaay. They will grow more slowly in Aather than discussed here because lol game mechanics, but here's the basic info:

Leppa Berry (restores 10 PP)
A Leppa Berry will mature from a planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 16 hours, with 4 hours per stage. A Leppa tree will yield 2-5 berries.

Sitrus Berry (restores 25% HP)
A Sitrus Berry will mature from a planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 32 hours, with 8 hours per stage. A Sitrus tree will yield 2-5 Berries.

Lum Berry (cures any status ailment)
A Lum Berry will mature from a planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 48 hours, with 12 hours per stage. A Lum tree will yield 2-5 Berries.

Occa Berry (weakens foe's super effective Fire-type move)
An Occa Berry will mature from a planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 72 hours, with 18 hours per stage. An Occa tree will yield 1-5 berries.

Wacan Berry (Weakens foe's super effective Electric-type move)

Stealing Totodile and meeting Gold.

From: Green Knight's love game.
Form: onyx ribbon
Shareable: 3/5

What he learned:
- Clearly he always makes excellent first impressions.
- Totodile beat up an Elekid. Only relevant because of Torrent.
- AT LEAST HE GOT TO BEAT UP SOME ROCKET GOONS? That was cathartic after his previous memory.

Meeting Crys and watching Gold POKÉHANGLIDER Lugia. [HERE]

From: Kiriko's bird-box game.
Form: a small onyx wooden box.
Shareable: unlimited

What he learned:
⇢ I see we made a great first impression on Crys.
⇢ This is immediately getting filed under "HOW DOES GOLD EVEN EXIST, OH MY GOD"

Learning his father's identity; waking up in Team rocket's airship with Giovanni. [HERE]

From: Maleficent's description game.
Form: a tiny onyx dessert cake.
Shareable: no

This covers: 1) encountering Sird and Orm; 2) the tag battle with Yellow; 3) holy Darth Vader revelations, Batman!, 4) waking up and having a breakdown on Sneasel; 5) attempting to drag Giovanni out of the crashing airship and ultimately losing consciousness again.

What he learned:
OH NO IT'S THE BOMBSHELL. In canon, this pretty much represents the destruction of Silver's tentatively rekindled hopes regarding finding his biological family. He's always loathed Team Rocket due to Pryce's plans regarding the organization as well as their general operating methods, and… his dad's the one who created it \:D/ Blue has perfectly normal loving people as her biological parents, and he has Giovanni. WELP. On the one hand, Aather's really just enforced his inclination towards self-made families, but on the other hand… this is still going to be a hell of a blow, and he's actually probably going to judge himself a lot for the fact that it is a blow, considering he's close with people like Viola who don't have parents at all. Oops.

SKILL: "Exchanger"-specific knowledge and skills

From: Jabberwock's points game.
Form: a slightly-too-rare bite of meat of unknown origin.

Silver now has an encyclopedic knowledge of Pokémon trading, especially trade-based evolutions and the scientific theories behind the phenomenon. Every Pokédex holder in the manga has a certain area they excel in: trading is Silver's. It's closely related to Blue's evolutionary specialization, since they were trained together.
exchanged: (すべて包み込む)
Getting badtouched by Sird while Banette'd. [HERE]

From: The Green Knight and Narcissus's loser game.
Form: bite-sized fruit tarts
Shareable: no.

What he learned:
⇢ ...
⇢ Actually, no, he's going to take this and immediately pass out, then wake up super confused. He was mostly unconscious/having his mind manipulated by a Pokémon at the time.
⇢ It'll just leave him with a vague sense of UNEASE and BADTOUCH.
exchanged: (頂点目指し 勝負仕掛け)
SKILL: how does I Pokémon (advanced)

Gained from Snow's skill share game.

⇢ Covers Pokémon from Sinnoh and Hoenn in detail, more complicated battle strategies, better knowledge of advanced evolution techniques, etc. Basically Silver now has all the trainer knowledge he'd have in canon back, save for his "special" skills (read: encyclopedic knowledge of trading and trade-based evolution).
exchanged: (Wow is that a whip?)
Gold waking up on the island and encountering a herd of Sandslashes. Lt. Surge returning his and Gold's belongings and asking about the Masked Man-- OSHIT LUGIA. [HERE]
From: Hermana's heart game.
Form: ornate sugar flowers with seven petals
Shareable: 5/6

What he learned:
⇢ Well that was undignified.
⇢ Lt. Surge = suspicious but he was out to stop Pryce too and he gave us our stuff back so I guess that's okay??
⇢ WHEN LEGENDARY POKÉMON ATTACK, NEXT ON FOX.

Meeting Blue. [HERE]
From Anansi's... everything... game.
Form: little spools of spiderweb on team colored toothpicks
Shareable: no

What he learned:
⇢ Like 86 days after arriving in Aather, FLAME NOW KNOWS HIS REAL NAME. He might start introducing himself as "Silver" to new people, but at this point he doesn't mind continuing to go by "Flame."
⇢ ... handkerchief? :|a
++ siscon (yes, siscon levels can always be upped)
exchanged: (Cute look.)
So, hey, I kind of lost steam on Flame's post from Thursday. HOWEVER, even if we didn't finish/haven't yet finished a thread, if your character asked for something, you can assume that they:

1) Now know what a Pokémon is, that they evolve, and that they have Types.
2) Received the item they asked for.

Thanks for putting up with my slowness, guys! :B
exchanged: (zz Totodile #2)
Oh, right. Writeups. What are those.

Cut because five memories. )

SKILL: stealthy ninja skills [HERE]
From: Kiriko & ML's kotoribako game:
Form: bean-paste wagashi

THIS SKILL IS EXACTLY WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE. He could already steal things, but now he has the sneakiness to pull it off without people realizing what he's doing. He can't do anything like mask his presence in a supernatural sense, but in a purely non-magical, non-superhuman way, he's really good at being stealthy.

SKILL: Feraligatr (lv 45) [HERE]
From Three's token game.
Form: chocolate thimble w/ custard inside

Well, I say "writeup" but it's basically just me C&Ping my notes and commenting on changes made. The game was here.

* A wild HEARTGAME appeared! )
exchanged: ([KOFFING'D])
ITEM #1: It seems like Saturday evening is still the time that the most people can make it to. In light of the hurricane, though, I am moving the start time for Silver's Heart up by one hour to 6 EST. Again, I seriously, seriously apologize for the last-minute craziness, and I know this means that at least one person will be arriving late. But!! I have ~*~plans~*~ to ensure that any late arrivals will still receive points and hopefully not miss out on much.

ITEM #2: If everyone playing in the heart would be so kind as to leave me a comment listing any items their character would have on hand when entering the heart, it would be greatly appreciated. It's not required or anything, but it'd be cool if you could :B Because of things. Things and stuff.
exchanged: (Wow is that a whip?)
HEY GUYS. Uh. So! I am super super happy about absolutely everyone who signed up for Silver's heart. And I don't want to lose any of you, which is why I'm asking this: is there any possibility you guys could still make it if I moved the game to Friday night instead? There's this little thing called "Hurricane Irene" that's probably going to be hitting the east coast on Saturday, which would affect at least one of the people playing.

I know this is super last minute, but I'm trying to figure out options that will make everyone happy, if they exist.

SO BASICALLY: Hermana, Mithos, Paul, Dino, Vanille, and Sasuke, if you could fill out this poll and/or comment to this post about what times would work for you, that would be... really awesome! I'm super sorry about all this. Goddammit, weather.

Pokédex holder reunion-- oh god this is the opposite of what I wanted. [HERE]

From: The Lion's terrible, horrible, no good, very bad game.
Form: twisted rope bracelet
Shareable: ???

What he learned:
⇢ Apparently there was some big battle involving Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, and him?
⇢ Blue mentions Silver's father... He has a father?! WHAT!
⇢ Pokémon trading is his specialty.
⇢ Deoxys and Sird...
⇢ oh so that's how I got petrified. WELP.

+ dere for Pokédex holders in general (and wanting to be useful to them)

Living with Blue on the run. [HERE]

From: Columbine's paper animals loser game.
Form: Onyx cotton candy
Shareable: ???

NOTE: came with "a very shiny gold comedy mask figurine. when held and concentrated on it will flood the holder with a general feeling of peace/goodwill and will last a full minute." Two uses.

This is a collection of headcanon about how Silver and Blue lived after they escaped Mask of Ice, and before Blue ran off to steal Squirtle and start her own Pokémon journey (about three years worth of time). There's a lot of petty theft and dubiously legal activities so that the two of them can survive -- when we see Blue in RGBY, she's accomplished at tricking money out of people, and Silver's obviously a skilled thief -- and the two of them relying on no one except themselves. Despite this, and despite the fact that Silver mentions that the shadow of their time with Mask of Ice never really left them, I think they were pretty happy.

+ ALL THE SISCON

Encountering Mask of Ice with Gold. Things go poorly. [vol. 9, p. 162-190]

From: Odile's pony game.
Form: black feathers that fade with use
Shareable: 4/5

UHHHHHHHH. Where do I even start with this memory. This is a huge, huge memory for Silver, since it fills in a lot of the details that have been bothering him (most recently babbled about here).

I would just link to pages from the Chuang Yi translation, but honestly, they did a really poor job with a lot of things and this scene is one of them. So instead I translated some key bits myself :B

translation stuff )

Summary of how this will probably affect him. )

Summary:
+ 30 ANGER AT PRYCE'S STUPID MOTIVES
+ 20 no ice or masks ever again oh my god
+ 10 TEAM ROCKET!!1! >(
+ some amount dere for Gold and also increased siscon
