Who: Ryou Bakura + IV
Where: Ecruteak City
When: 26/04-27/04
Summary: Urban Exploring in a burned out tower, what can go wrong?
Rating: PG-13 for IV's potty mouth and Ryou's love for the occult.
Beating the gym had gone surprisingly smooth for the most part - Shark's attempt to beat up ghosts using nothing but brute Normal-typed force aside. After the challenge, IV had brought his team to the Pokecenter to recuperate while he himself kicked back at the inn room he's staying at in the meantime. By dusk he had eaten a good meal at one of the Ecrutea's fancier eateries, picked up his pokemon ...and made the big mistake of letting some of them out as he explored the rest of the town.
His new Shuppet had made a beeline for the Burned Tower just to vanish within it, leaving IV to first to call after it, and when that failed, traipse in to get the curious apparition back out. Which went well until it didn't go well anymore.
IV yelps as the floorboards break beneath him, sending him tumbling down to god knows where.
"GODSDAMMIT!!"

[Hearing what he takes as marvel in Ryou's voice, IV places a hand on Cat's head and rubs his neck and cheek.]
He is, isn't he? He only just evolved earlier today, after he's helped me win the local badge. I took my whole team out on a walk to relax and only told them to stay near, but I fear Gimmick took that as a license to go exploring instead. Do you know if there is anything that's particularly attractive to ghosts in this place?

[He looks around, Hinotama floating around to help him see in the dark.
When IV mentions winning the local badge, Ryou's expression changes to a delighted one, out of happiness for IV.]
Congrats! I won the Fog Badge today, too!
[As for if there's anything interesting to ghosts in here-]
...Well, there are a few Ghost types that are supposed to live here. Mimikyu's one, and there's Gastly, Haunter, and Phantump. Beyond that, this place was supposedly struck by lightning and burned years ago.
[Sounds like someone did some research!]

You did? Congratulations! The poor Gym master must've taken quite a beating today, huh? Finding a way for my team to be able to hit his ghosts was a bit tricky, tho.
[He gives Hinotama an appreciating look. This ghost is really useful.]
Maybe it's the air of this place, then.
