CLAW'S CHAISEThe guild leader lounges upon a red velvet chaise, watching you with low-lidded eyes as you browse her wares in the dim light of the chandelier. Stone walls and tinted windows give the trade shop a bleak, interrogation-room feeling. It's dramatic contrast to the decadence surrounding the widow queen on her velvet throne, wide-brimmed hat set on the back of her head.
CLAW looks you up and down, appraising you as if she might add you to the shop's catalogue. "You give me a little something, I'll give you a little something. That's the way the world works," she says in her slow, southern drawl, blowing a smoke ring from the end of her long cigarette. It rises towards the ceiling like a dark halo. "Tit for tat. And to get something good, well. You have to put a little something bad in it."
"You have something bad to give me, stranger?" Her eyes narrow, ruby lips curving.
- Welcome to CLAW'S CHAISE, the #1 Trade Shop in the Timberlands!
- To make a trade, simply post in this thread listing the Pokemon you want to trade. After that, make a request in Mod Requests and a mod will update your Character Record. The Guild Leader may reply interacting with your character.
- Trades are usually unequal. This is a great method for getting rid of unwanted PC Pokemon you may have acquired.
- Available PKMN Deals are semi-permanent and will only be changed out rarely, if at all.

"If it isn't my favourite venomous southern belle. Looking as beautiful and deadly as ever, Cindy Lou-Ann." A cat-woman's rosy lips curl into a smirk when greeting the guild leader, compliments purred with a tone as playful as it is velvety. Out of all people in this game, she expects C.L.A.W to understand the words venomous and deadly as the praise they are. Highest of compliments, if anything!
But, of course, Tuesday isn't just here to give compliments and chat... no matter how much she may like giving compliments and chatting with those she finds to be alluring and all too easy on the eyes. Before saying anything else, she produces three Pokéballs that are placed before C.L.A.W's chaise.
"I've heard you're trading Mawile for three Pokémon, and I happen to need one for another exchange." She's honest about her intentions because she has no reason not to be. It's all business: someone has something she wants, so for the sake of having a chip to bargain with, she's acquiring something they want.
Will C.L.A.W understand this as well?
Tuesday is rather curious to find out, honestly.
After all, street smarts sure are sexy... to her, at least.

"Well, well. If it isn't Tuesday," CLAW says, leisurely and slow. Her eyes are half-lidded, smoke trailing from the end of her cigarette holder. "Long time—" she blows out, forming a perfect smoke ring that drifts towards the ceiling, "No see."
Or has it been? Who can say...
She does not move from her chaise lounge as Tuesday browses her wares, but her lips curve at the compliment. "A queen bee still stings," she drawls, crossing shapely legs. A glimpse of her pistol, strapped high up one half-exposed thigh. "But she hopes she doesn't have to. She has soldiers for that, after all."
CLAW gestures and a leather-clad goon rushes forward to offer Tuesday the Mawile's Pokeball, sending her a resentful look. It seems CLAW's resident harem are feeling a little jealous of the special attention you're receiving.
"Much obliged," she breathes. "Come again soon... Tuesday."

It’s his second time visiting. Kazuki is actually quite fond of The Creed base; despite being a light house, it looks more like a villain’s lair, which is vastly preferable compared to the other two options. Stepping under its watchful eye and gaping maw feels almost like returning home.
He’s not here to sightsee though.
The man makes a beeline through the halls, reaching the room where the guild leader can be found reclining among her offered trades. It reminds Kazuki of a dragon nesting with its hoard of treasure. Her eyes appraise him, reminding him — after an extended period where he’s been completely numb to the fact — that he’s essentially half-dressed.
He raises a hand. “Wrong merchandise. I’m here to pawn off these.”
He throws down a box of Pokeballs, ten in total and most being fish. He already knows what he wants in exchange.
“That cat.” He points to the Absol on display. “It can detect disasters, right? Bad omens, danger, and all that shit?” If it can, then it’s perfect, and he needs it. He can feel its eyes stuck on him, perhaps seeing through him, seeing the way he hangs on the fringes, even as he holds himself high and speaks with the same air of rude arrogance he always has.
“I’ll take it.”
Kazuki offers for an ABSOL:
x1 CARVANHA
x1 RUFFLET
x1 SEWADDLE
x1 SHROOMISH
x1 GALARIAN MEOWTH
x2 COMMON MAGIKARP (WHITE CALICO & TWO-TONED)
x1 NIDORAN F
x1 BASCULIN (BLUE)
x1 ORTHWORM

CLAW loves bad boys, and Kazuki is the baddest boy around. "Was I looking? How unladylike," she murmurs, fanning herself with a handful of playing cards. Despite her words, she does not seem terribly disconcerted, and autumn-colored eyes linger like a cat's on the tattooed trainer. Red lips curl up at the corners. "Guess you caught me."
She uncoils like a waking serpent, the faces on her cards still hidden. "Take them away. You know what to do," CLAW says, slow and sweet as molasses. The red-and-white shapes vanish with a click into an aluminum briefcase, which is swiftly carried away down the staircase by one of the Guild. Most likely, they are headed for the underground tunnel network and a future black market transaction.
"Back to business. For 10—" CLAW's voice pulls you back. The guild leader selects a capsule from her horde and slides a card over to you, face-down. "It's yours."
The 10 of Hearts, and an Absol.

Kallisto had visited the guild house before, but he hadn't made it a point to acquaint himself with the NPC guild leader, not yet, until today. She was in another one of the rooms in the base, sitting like a mafia boss amidst her collection of prizes. The game must've placed these for flavor, but the player couldn't help but wonder if each of these had a story to tell, and if she would bother to tell him if he asked. He sorely felt out of place in here, after all. If he was still wearing his Alexander avatar, he might be able to summon up more pomp to match her exuberance, but right now he was just him; a little lanky and wearing comfortable, modern clothes. It was like he was the NPC plucked from the streets and delivered here for a verdict.
Anyway, he was just here for one thing: ❝I'd like that, uh,❞ he squinted at the UI box that only he could see to read the name, ❝Mawile. For these three.❞ he placed down three Pokeballs containing two fishes and one worm. Before he could fully think about it, though, he added the tiniest snark, ❝Bad enough for you?❞ but he honestly had no clue what the guild master would do with these Pokemon. Chop them up for food? Sacrifice them to the shrine? Or maybe the game did nothing with them at all, just deleting them from existence? In any case, he did not really care all too much (he thought to convince himself).
Kallisto offers for a Mawile:
2x Magikarp (White Calico and Apricot)
1x Blipbug |

"Could be badder," says CLAW, lingering over every word. She sizes up Kallisto through half-lidded eyes, face shaded by the brim of her hat. "...But that's up to you."
As always, the Pokemon are taken away without any fuss. They're merchandise, plain and simple. Items to be bartered with like dollar bills, walking, talking accessories and shows of power. And it's not just the Pokemon. You too, along with the other Creed cronies, are something CLAW toys with like a diamond wedding band; something pretty to be cast aside when the going gets bloody.
"Here you are. Don't be a stranger now," CLAW says, smoke trailing from her long cigarette, and extends the Mawile's Pokeball to you from a delicate hand full of scarlet nails. "We're all in the same Guild, you hear? I'd like us to stay... friendly."
You're not sure if it's blackmail or seduction, but cold steel settles in your palm as the Mawile joins your collection.

Change is inevitable, and in the UNOVR existence of Tuesday, things are constantly changing. Classes, Pokémon, upgrades, you name it. Builds optimised, re-evaluated, and optimised again. Of course, sometimes, during all of this constant change, things become obsolete, and when that occurs, she seeks to change them as well.
Certain things, however, never seem to change.
"Ah, C.L.A.W, such breathtaking beauty should be a sin. It's always a pleasure to see you." Without a shadow of a doubt, Tuesday's attitude towards her guild leader is one of these seemingly unchangeable things, and when she visits C.L.A.W on this fated day, she smiles with her usual unchangeable confidence. Yet, those eyes that are the colour of gold go from C.L.A.W to the wares all around them, studying each piece with unmatched scrutiny. "I heard you have Absol up for trade."
There it is; her true intentions.
Looking at her guild leader once again, Tuesday smiles at her:
"I'll give you ten of my Pokémon for one." Truly, most of the Pokémon she had pre-selected for it are far from appealing to her, while others simply have no use anymore even though they had once been of great service. "I'll even throw in my Rapidash. Surely our great guild leader can't have just one steed, don't you think?"
TRADING THE FOLLOWING FOR ABSOL: Rapidash, Scorbunny, Orthworm, Orthworm, Magikarp, Magikarp, Magikarp, Magikarp, Shellos, Skitty
