After quite a bit of text, the Monster House is killed except for a lucky few Cubones and Poliwhirls who dodged the attack. You and your team start moving towards the stairs, killing anything that gets in your way. You collect an Apple, a Big Apple, a Sleep Seed, and 371 more Poke on the way, then eat one of your Apples. You can see the stairs when a Cubone pops up out of nowhere (Pikachu: "Damn b*st*rd!")! Here's what it looks like (Y-you P& D-team members c-Cubone =-stairs):

You and Pikachu are both still weak from the Monster House (Charmander- 38/100 Pikachu- 31/105). If you move, you risk getting you or Pikachu killed, but the stairs are sooo close! What do you do?
