That's a crap title I threw down, because I can't title anything to save my life.

Let's come up with a plot! Because having plots is good.

Okay, that works for me. The poachers aren't quite done getting all the evolution stones they can carry yet, so there will be a few moments when one or two of them enter the cave and our characters can move more easily without being seen.

Scott is a Ranger...... so I can't believe I didn't think of just having him team up with our wild allies. Well, I suppose that will work. Glaceon's a bit too strong for Scott to handle, but Absol and maybe Lucario will work. I might just have Lucario stay in the cave until we're done, unless something really bad happens.

Scott's going to need to head back to where his house used to be in the Loch Ranch area for a little while afterwards, because a Ranger station is going to be built on the land he owns, which will become his new home. That's what the letter that Staraptor dropped off earlier deals with. He only needs to stay long enough to get some of his preferences into the building plans though, so he'll probably wander off somewhere else soon afterwards. If he is aware that Cesc is going to be entering a contest in Arasam, he might head back there for a while, otherwise he'll just find trouble to stick his nose in somewhere else.

I can't remember if I mentioned it somewhere or not...... but I was planning on that giant icy-or-crystal-like stone in the pictures that is deep in the cave being an Icy Rock. That will be why the Glaceon was living in the cave instead of in a much colder location. I was hoping that there could be a long, narrow passageway at the back of the main cave that led deep into and farther up the mountain to where the rock is located.
