Turn 4 Rival Report
Giovanni
[]Operation Clear Thunder: Well, now comes the real meat and potatoes of your policy, Power Stations and Water Treatment Plants, now comes the part of organizing them to actually fix it.
Rolled
100 => 34+32=66
"This is a
mess!" Giovanni bellowed, his voice echoing off the cold, concrete walls of the power station. He slammed his hand down on the scattered blueprints sprawled across the makeshift desk, his gaze fixed on the endless notes marking sections overtaken by Muk, Koffing, and Arbok nests. "Look at this. It's only been a few months, and the place is
infested!"
The new administrator—a nervous, pale man—winced as Giovanni's gaze landed on him. "Sir, with the recent environmental instability, Pokémon migration patterns have become… well, erratic. They're drawn to any warm shelter, so they settled here and… made it their home."
Giovanni's eyes narrowed, his patience unraveling. "I didn't ask for excuses. I want
results. Now."
The administrator flinched but managed a quick nod, scribbling down orders. Giovanni's words were a commandment, and he knew better than to hesitate.
For the rest of the day, Giovanni prowled the site, barking orders, recalculating resources, and setting priorities. Under his relentless scrutiny, the reclamation teams moved faster, clearing muck-filled corridors, restoring damaged circuits, and sealing off key areas. By sundown, the station hummed with activity as they made significant progress, each section slowly returning to operational standards.
As night fell, Giovanni finally leaned back, exhaustion tugging at his features but satisfaction gleaming in his eyes. The reclamation would be finished by the end of the week, no excuses.
He rubbed his temples, feeling the toll of the day settle on him.
Goodness, I'm tired, he thought. But nothing compared to the satisfaction of seeing his empire return to order under his command.
Reward: The Power and Water situation is now under control, and Public Support rises.
Team Rocket!
[]Infultrate The Regional Chaos: It is easy to go into the long winding fires of madness. All that is needed is the right look.
Rolled: D100 => 92
WHOM!: D10 => 4(Vermillion City)
Infiltrating Colonel Surge's city had been surprisingly easy. Team Rocket operatives moved like shadows through the city, slipping past guards, breaching locked buildings, and setting up surveillance in every corridor, every storeroom, and nearly every critical space. The surveillance network was extensive; hidden cameras, listening devices, and motion sensors embedded in strategic points turned each part of the city into Rocket territory.
There was, however, one stubborn exception: the Colonel's personal planning room. A fortress within a fortress, its walls were shielded, thickened, and guarded with military-grade security. Surge wasn't known as Kanto's Electric-type powerhouse for nothing—every inch of his quarters was reinforced, his movements planned with the precision of a commander who knew he was always a target.
But patience was a cornerstone of Team Rocket's ethos. This was just the beginning. Soon, they'd find the vulnerabilities in Surge's defenses, waiting for the right moment to strike.
Team Rocket is eternal, they thought.
Ever watching…now and forever.
Reward: Team Rocket has infiltrated Vermillion City, More accuracy in the Rumor Mill will come as a result.

Cerulean City
[]Reopen the Pallet Connection: Well its time to reopen the old waystation connection to Johto, hopefully, they will be open to trade and money.
Rolled: D100 => 88
"Well, I hope the seas are... solidly built," Misty mused, looking out over the docks with a determined glint.
Her assistant gave her a puzzled glance. "Boss, I don't think that analogy really works."
Misty rolled her eyes. "I'm talking about the seaport, genius. With the kind of waves we're expecting, this place better be built like a fortress if it's going to handle all this new trade and still stay intact."
Her assistant chuckled, shaking his head. "Alright, fair enough. I guess we'll see if 'solidly built' is enough for what's coming."
"Exactly," Misty replied, her gaze hardening. "Because if it isn't, we're going to need more than just strong docks."
Reward: An Action involving Trade or Diplomacy with Cerulean City will auto-succeed.
Saffron City
[]Build Equipment for the GREAT CONQUEST!: You need weapons and long-term logistical equipment.
Rolled: D100 => 73
Stacks of basic military surplus and an impressive supply of Kanto auxiliary equipment filled the room. It wasn't much by the standards of larger military forces, but it was more than enough to fuel the early stages of her campaign to secure the region.
Sabrina ran her hand along the spine of the Kanto Regional Military Training Manual, her eyes glinting with a sense of purpose. The manual was dense with strategies, protocols, and decades of hard-earned tactical knowledge.
"A solid foundation," she murmured, a rare smile crossing her face. With this equipment and the manual in hand, she had everything she needed to mold her forces—and the region—into her vision.
"Yes," Sabrina said softly to herself, "I can work with this."
Reward: Training and Military Improvement rolls gain a +10 to all rolls for the two turns.
Vermillion City
[]Operational Integrity:You know the Spies here are trying to get your plans…best lead them on with bait.
Rolled: D100 => 90
Surge grinned as he lit a single candle in his dimly lit quarters. "I can't believe they all took the bait," he muttered, savoring the victory in silence.
The plan was layered and intricate, a deception worthy of the intelligence playbooks he'd studied during the war. Back then, he'd worked alongside some of the best in the intelligence departments, crafting diversions that left enemies scrambling. Now, decades later, he had applied those same strategies here, where old habits and routines made Kanto's underworld blind to the traps laid before them.
The past twenty years had dulled their instincts. Giovanni's information network, Koga's Shinobi spies—all of them had grown accustomed to reading situations the same way they had when they first took power. So, Surge went dark just enough to pique their interest, baiting them into his web. The layout, the whispers, the seemingly hidden messages—it was a symphony of deception, each layer carefully crafted to pull them in, blinding them to the poison in their midst.
Surge gave a nod to his Electric-types, their eyes gleaming with loyalty in the flickering candlelight. With a final grin, he extinguished the flame, and a surge of electricity coursed through the walls, sending a charged hum through the room that drove out any listening devices or eavesdropping spies.
The equipment had cost him a fortune to acquire and install, months to perfect the flow of current for his unique counter-surveillance field. But now, every inch of his home was shielded, every crackle and hum providing an added bonus: the covert network was so efficient, it powered half the city in the process.
"Let them think they're in control," he whispered to himself, settling back into the shadows.
The Screens lit up and showed every Spy within the City by CCTV and listening devices.
"They've already been played.
Reward: All Spies within the City have been…delt with, and you can finally work on your actual plans.
The Director of Unova Intelligence has granted you +500 Income of Resorces for an investment well spent.
Celadon City
[]Restore Civic Infrastructure: Crimson's gonna need to roll up his sleeves anyway and start fixing things.

Crimson helped rebuild a city in less then a month.
Fuchsia City
[]Preparing for Hard Operations: Your Shinobi can shape and gather many operational details…but even so, information without force is impossible.
Rolled: D100 => 81
The City Armory was an impressive fortress of steel and firepower. Rows of rifles lined the walls, and crates upon crates of ammunition were stacked with precision alongside light mortars, each one meticulously maintained. The air was thick with the scent of gun oil and metal, and the echo of footsteps resounded in the vast, almost sacred space.
Koga's eyes gleamed as he surveyed the arsenal, his gaze sharp and calculating. "I expect daily range practice for all organized regiments and Shinobi," he ordered, his voice carrying the weight of discipline and expectation.
"Yes, sir," the officer responded crisply, jotting down notes with quick precision.
Koga let his gaze linger on the weapons. "I'll be spending a few hours on the range tomorrow," he mused. "I've let myself grow rusty."
The officer gave a faint, respectful nod, recognizing the unspoken truth behind Koga's words. Koga was a master of close combat, yet here he stood, humbly acknowledging his own limitations. He would not allow himself, nor his Shinobi, to falter in any skill—least of all in the art of war.
Reward: Equipment retrieved, Bonus to martial actions next two turns.
