Averaging out all these votes...
>>6110428>>6110450>>6110555>>6110570>>6110643>>6110674I'll use a combination of the top three votes from here, which comes out to:
>Quickly end the conversation and head outside with Mary. You can still hear some distant gun shots and there's no way the chaos has completely abated. If it wasn't your duty to end it before, it is now. Focus on:<span class="mu-b">>Calming the soldiers down. Distracting them, trying to reason with them, anything it takes to get them shooting away from the town and away from the moles.</span>
and
<span class="mu-g">>It's food they're after. Lure the remaining moles with veggies or greens and toss them away from town.</span>
as well as
<span class="mu-r">>Promise the soldiers some nutberries of their own, like you'd given to Shenanigan's Gulch, on the condition that they find some way to tend to them and spread them amongst the townsfolk. You'll deliver a few of the ones in your trunk to them tomorrow morning before you leave.</span>
Now, I actually fucked up the formatting of these choices. "Choose one stance on each problem" was only supposed to apply to the four sub-options I gave underneath "quickly end the conversation and head outside with Mary", but due to it being ridiculously late yesterday I didn't catch the poor phrasing and woke up to a sea of incorrectly-formatted choices.
However! Given that this was an error on my part, and I've come up with some good ideas for writing in everything you ended up asking for regardless, I won't be doing anything about it and instead I'll try to deliver one big entry that properly consolidates all these votes. Thank you all for giving me so many options to choose from and congrats to the one guy whose write-in supplanted any of the stock choices. :)
I'll see what I can do about writing. I mentioned this in /qtg/, but <span class="mu-s">I'm busy with preparations for Hurricane Helene today so I won't be able to put out an entry this evening.</span>
Tomorrow is more likely, but I'm uncertain on the specifics. It really depends on whether I'm still at home, I think.
For now, I've got some hurricanin' to avoid. I'll see you all when I'm in the clear.

>>6110407If you check the rentry (
https://rentry.org/PokepocalypseQST) or this pastebin (
https://pastebin.com/FM2wawpk), you'll see that Walter only has one nutberry... on his person. He's still got 10 more in the trunk.
All of them are beginning to lightly spoil, though.>>6110555Thank you very much anon, I'm glad you appreciate it. Thank you for voting, too.
>>6110664Moles do actually eat some produce (admittedly, in dire situations)… though a lot of Pokémon are different enough that it's not 1-1.
]Blitzle, for example, are actually omnivorous, despite real-life zebras still being strict herbivores.
