OK so Youmu has a couple options here.

Let it pass: we could apologize to the Zapdos for interrupting it, and go on our way. We don't get any immediate benefit from this encounter, but it might show up later or influence later events.

Pokemon battle: we could bring out our pokemon to fight the Zapdos. Our pokemon aren't very strong yet, and the weather and terrain aren't to our advantage, and the Zapdos could choose to fly away.

Challenge it ourselves: we could try to fight or intimidate the Zapdos by ourselves. This would go against Reisen's advice, but if the Zapdos is trying to see if we're strong or not, we should oblige it ~~like a good samurai~~

Nonviolent recruitment: we could try to get the Zapdos the same way we did Sora and Opal. If we decided to do this, we'd have a further choice as to how we'd convince it.

I have a feeling our pokemon would be destroyed if we tried to battle it, and it's probably either illegal or extremely taboo to fight a pokemon, especially because we have pokemon in our party.

//I don't believe it would be if it's for self defense.
Letting it pass seems like the best option. Or at least let it finish it's drink ~~while we watch it weirdly~~ and then decide what next. Maybe it'll fly away. Maybe it'll attack/challenge us. Maybe it'll just keep sizing us up.
If we want to fight it, just ready when it seems like it's done (draw our sword or have a pokeball out).

It's still staring at us, and I don't know what to do. I'd be inclined to ask Reisen or Yuyuko what to do now.

Neovereign · « **Reply #308 on:** February 14, 2018, 02:26:23 AM »

Back up and wait for it to return to it's previous course of action?

//Actually, that's what I thought. Zapdos will be the one that will decide what to do next. If he wants to fight, so be it. (I am weirdly up for fighting ourselves), but for now, we will just...
