Rescuers' Mission 1

Rescuers’ Action Bulletin!

Chill Icon YO! Chill the Minccino here! First off, you guys are already so cool for taking interest in the Rescue Guild. If you want lots of adventure, mystery-solving, questing, and general coolness all around, then this is the guild for you! We’re a great bunch that watch each other’s backs and protect each other, especially from those fiendish Rogues! And lately we’ve been seeing an uncool amount of crime and kidnappings going on -- which is pretty strange. So here are some tasks to start off your adventures! Do your part and you’ll see some real cool rewards! The first case is of a Cyndaquil that took a wrong turn near the Zigzag River and wandered near Dimlit Cave. Unfortunately, everyone knows that Dimlit Cave is being guarded by a greedy and very territorial Electabuzz. It seems that this Electabuzz spotted Cyndaquil’s Rare Candy and ran off with it deep into his lair! We need some brave ‘mons to go in there, fight off Electabuzz, and bring Cyndaquil’s Rare Candy back; that is, if it hasn’t already been eaten! This next case is bit of a scary one! The Grass Pokemon that live in Flowery Grove have made several reports of a hungry pack of Mightyena that have been seen prowling around during the full moon last night! The cries of a Cherrim could be heard and no one has seen it since. If you find the Mightyena, corner them down and be sure to check their bellies! Next, both Girafarig and Sunkern are missing, and were last seen running through the tall grass together in Sunflower Field. We have Taillow scouts on the lookout for these two, but the fact that the sunflowers are so tall isn’t helping. We aren’t sure of its motives, but we suspect Girafarig may be the kidnapper: beware its tricky second head! Lastly, those no-good Rogues have announced that “Electric-types are lame” and have had one of their Wartortle cohorts publicly kidnap a baby Joltik and is keeping it hostage, claiming that he will step on the little guy unless they get a bounty! He’s currently hiding out at Shimmer Sea Island. Watch where you step if you take on this mission! On another note, everyone’s favorite local Charmander, “Mike the ‘mander”, has lost his signature hat! Why anyone would want to steal that awful thing, who knows! But since he is a baldy, he probably needs it back ASAP! There is a huge reward to those brave/lucky enough to find it! Stay tuned to our Rescuers’ Action Bulletin for any new announcements! Also be on the lookout for any of the Rogue guild’s vile trickery! They’re not cool. STAY COOL, Chill~

And now for Mike the ‘mander’s Message!:

Mike Icon Ohgosh ohgosh WHERE’S MY HAT? HELP I CAN’T BE SEEN IN PUBLIC! PLEASE, I NEED MY HAT!!!! … I think I know who did it. It’s gotta be that new Scrafty, Almond. She’s been on my tail ever since she came to town. Check out the Spinda Cafe and look out -- she’s different from the other delinquent Scrafty. I’m not sure of her abilities, be wary; she’s stronger than the local Scrafty here! Electabuzz has stolen Cyndaquil’s Rare Candy, in a cave off a river Mightyena has kidnapped a Cherrim, they were last spotted in a flowery grove Girafarig has kidnapped a Sunkern, they were last seen traveling through a field Wartortle is holding Joltik hostage, they were seen in the middle of a small island at a lake Mikemander lost his cowboy HAT. He is a baldy and probably needs it. Stolen by a Scrafty.

OBJECTIVES

Find the criminal Show the resolution - do you catch the criminal? Does it escape? Did the kidnapped Pokemon end up fine/do you get the item back? You can draw these in any number of images or comic pages you’d like. It’s just important that you draw the 2 objectives of the mission.

Merchants' Mission 1

PK Icon Welcome everyone into the Merchants’ Guild! No doubt you’ve joined this guild because of your desire to work hard and earn your way to the top. Luckily for all of you new recruits, we have plenty of tasks for you to take on. First off, our local Trubbish Dump is a little dirty lately. No surprise there, really, but they want to employ some of our talented guild to help over at their recycling center to sort some garbage... no one said this work was going to be clean. We’ve also got Auntie Kanga over at the Kangaskhan Storage asking for some strong Pokemon to move some boxes around. Master Foo at the Mienfoo Dojo is asking that we send some Pokemon over to help renovate the outside of his building. That place has been around for a while! Well, if you’re looking for some less dirty work, the Pidove Post needs some help lately. One of their delivery birds was injured a couple of days ago and the mail is getting backed up. Actually, you’re probably all receiving this letter a day late because of that. Anyway, and finally, the most trusted job of all... we need some Pokemon to run our shop during our lunch break. Really, we’ve got to eat, too, but we also want to make money. Work your way up with this. That’s it for the small tasks, but we do have some larger escort missions as well. There’s a well-known Persian who’s been our customer for quite some time... we need someone to escort one of our Sales Meowth to the Persian to try and get him to buy our incense. Lately he’s been a bit stingy, and we’re kind of worried he’ll just take the incense... so we need some Pokemon to guard the Meowth. If you don’t want to deal with claws, there’s always escorting our Zigzagoon representative to the Hydreigon’s cave. He’s always been really good at selling to that Hydreigon, so your biggest obstacle is just getting him past the lava moat. Yeah. There’s a lava moat. Hydreigon takes his hoarding seriously. If that’s just too much for you, there’s still a final escort mission... a local Snorlax has been collecting all sorts of berries, and we’d really like to get a hold of them. The only food we have that Snorlax would be interested in at this time is some Honey. We need you to either escort one of our Teddiursa or Combee merchants to try to make the transaction. Well, I guess the biggest issue is that you need to find a way to wake Snorlax up. Good luck with that. That’s it for the tasks this month. Hopefully next month we’ll find more ways to make more money. Maybe we’ll find some way to exploit the Rogues’ and Rescuers’ rivalry with each other... but don’t tell them this. Your happy Merchant leader, Purple Kecleon

TASKS

Trubbish wants someone to help him organize and clean his dump. Kangaskhan needs some help rearranging her storage space. Mienfoo needs help rennovating his dojo. A gang led by Scrafty has covered the place in graffiti. The Pidove Post needs someone to run postal errands and deliver letters. Kecleon needs someone to look over the shop during lunch. Don’t mess up transactions!

ESCORT MISSIONS

Meowth needs to go to Persian’s villa and try to convince him to buy some incense. Escort Meowth there and ensure his safety. Zigzagoon needs to visit Hydreigon’s nest to convince him to buy a Dragon’s Fang. Watch out for the lava moat, help Zigzagoon cross it. Teddiursa or Combee needs to visit Snorlax to get him to buy some Honey. This isn’t possible if you can’t wake him up!

OBJECTIVES

You must either pick 2 tasks OR 1 escort mission. Tasks objectives: simply show your Pokemon completing each task Escort mission objectives Find the Pokemon’s lair Show the success or failure of the transaction You can draw these in any number of images or comic pages you’d like. It’s just important that you either draw both of the tasks, or that you draw the 2 objectives of the escort mission.

Rogues' Mission 1

Gunpowder Icon Dearest members; Ahoy mateys, welcome to the Rogues! I'm sure ya be itchin' to get yer hands on some booty, 'specially if ya traveled the seven seas. First, though, we got some formalities to discuss. The most important bein', if yar on guild business, ya be on guild business. In other words, don't be pilfering a job to yerself! We take from the greedy to give to the poor, so if ya get a bit selfish, well.. let's just say you may find yourself our next target. That's not t' say ya won't be rewarded, however! Yar, I be blubberin' too much. Let's get on with some work, eh? We've got some interesting ‘opportunities’ for ya new recruits, to evaluate yer capabilities. Jobs aren't too tough, but that's not to say they're unrewarding! Our first target is a Hydreigon. We used to be mates, him and I; he was a kind fellow, and also known to hoard many treasures. Unfortunately, yer gonna be stealing from him, and I'm sure his kindness will be changin' right quick, if ya get caught. The first problem is that his cave is surrounded by a moat of lava, so come prepared for that. Also, he's often sleeping, but he keeps his spare heads up as guards. They don't see too well, though, so use that to yer advantage! You thought stealin' from a dragon'd be easy? Joke's on you, mate. If molten lava ain't yer thing, then maybe you'll be more interested in the Persian our Sableye friend has been watchin' for some time. Apparently, he too has a great collection of gold and rarities, but the problem is he's always sleepin' on top of the best stuff. Even when he's not nappin', he prowls about, so mind your step. Still readin'? Guess danger ain't yer cup o' tea. Right, we still have one more job on the list. I hear one area in particular is low on food, and by coincidence, there's a Snorlax nearby them notorious for hoarding it. We'd like to put him on a diet, so to speak. Be careful, because if he thinks his food is in danger, he'll take it personally! If yer quiet, though, he's lazy and sleeps a lot. Lastly, a couple things I want to mention: I hear the Merchants might be in some of these areas.. show them yer respect. They stay out of our business, so we stay out of theirs. However, the Rescuers are a different bunch. They're notorious for stirrin' up our operations, so be on the lookout.. though I haven't heard anything of concern lately. If ya be havin' any questions, ya can ask me, or you can find the fancy-lookin' Sableye; we've been partners in crime for some time. Though he don't talk much. Happy huntin’ Gabite

Pilfering Missions

Hydreigon in a cave nest has a bunch of gold and food items. He’s surrounded by a lava moat and is a notorious hoarder. Lets head-hands guard while his main head sleeps. Persian is in a large villa with a bunch of gold and rare items. Sleeps on top of hoard when not prowling about, uses his claws to make a point. Snorlax collects all sorts of fruit and berries which makes it hard for some Pokemon in that area to eat enough. Easiest to steal from as he’s always sleeping... but he wakes up if he thinks his food is in danger. Shouldn’t be that hard to run away from though!

OBJECTIVES

Show your team finding the hoard Show the resolution - do you escape with/without an item? Do you have to battle? Are you caught at all? You can draw these in any number of images or comic pages you’d like. It’s just important that you draw the 2 objectives of the escort mission.
