ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Moon: Excellent. >:3

Lacunosa Pokémon Center

Jacob: Right then, feel free, but don't go around spreading this. The biggest reason it was supposed to be kept a secret is because the more people who know and meddle, the less likely his plan is to work. I don't even have a clue what this plan is, but I have a strong feeling it's an okay thing.

"Okay, since I've already been there, and she's already out, would you all mind Regina teleporting us there? You know what, no. Regina, please."

Regina: -Smiles a little at Seth's reaction but doesn't say anything, she just stands up, and with a small blip-

Opelucid City

-Those who were teleported are brought here, in front of the Pokémon Center-

Opelucid

-Crow, Gogie, and Ghostus are blipped here-

Crow: Alright. And I don't plan on telling anyone else besides him, except maybe Ghostus. Should Regina bring him in or should I tell him privately?

Opelucid Gym

"If you think this is cheap, then you still have a lot to see. Altaria, Fire Blast!" said Drayden

"<Aaaaw! But he looks so cute sleeping!>" said the Altaria, but despite this, he still went with the order

He then fired a stream of fire at Kirk

Opelucid City

Those who were sitting on one of the chairs of the Pokémon Center of course weren't sitting on anything now, as such, Duke, Lyuri and Sakura fell to the ground and had a bit of a tea bath.

"... Genius." said Lyuri.

"<This is somewhat cathartic.> thought Seth.

-Can see DS and her mons in front of me and a tree behind them-

...

-Smirks-

A bit later

-Hanging from a tree branch directly above-

Hey DS, what are you writing?

-Eyebrow raise-

Or trying to write?

Opelucid Gym

-Kirk is knocked awake by the heat from the Fire Blast and staggers to his feet, visibly disoriented and battered but still in a fighting state.-

Kirk: <GAH! I'm going to have your head for that, you little fluffball!>

Herbert: Alright, Agility, then-

Kirk: ~Could we not do the mental orders thing anymore? Only I'm... well, I don't really feel comfortable poking around in your head from now on.~

Herbert: Oh. Very well. Agility, then Stone Edge.

-Kirk darts around the battlefield, building up speed before taking aim and launching a hail of rocks at the Altaria.-

Opelucid City

Jacob: -Is drenched in tea- "I probably should have thought that through."

Do so on your own. If we add in another voice I'm going to get a headache...

Regina: -Is in an embarrased silence-

- Notices Tagg -

Oh! H-Hi!

- Glances down at the notebook -

Well, I'm not really sure what I'm going for here. I suppose there's the whole J-Team show reboot I'm supposed to be working on, although there might be other vague concepts for stories inside my head that I'd like to write down... I'm really not sure where to begin, though.

Stalker!Frillish: (climbs out on another branch in the same tree) <Ooh, I can see Kohai from here!> <3

Opelucid

Crow: Alright, I'll go do that then.

-He motions to Gogie and Ghostus to come with him, then heads off with them to look for a spot where there aren't others around-

Opelucid Gym

The Altaria is surprised by the attack and is hit, but takes much less damage than one would expect thanks to Cotton Guard "<Ouchie! That hurt!>" he said, staggering a bit

"I'm afraid to tell you this isn't going to work very well, Cotton Guard and Fire Blast." said Drayden.

The Altaria then makes it's cotton even tougher before firing another stream of fire at Kirk

Opelucid City

Seth chuckles a bit at the situation and helps Sakura get up

"Well, good thing I was about to get finished." said Sakura, giggling a bit.

Opelucid Gym

-Kirk uses his enhanced speed to sidestep the Fire Blast, though his fur is caught by the heat. By this point, he is clearly exhausted and taken off-guard, but his face is locked in a determined expression.-

Kirk: <I'm not losing here. Not to some puffed-up bird with more plumage than practice.>

???: Ah, Kirk's unwavering confidence. An admirable trait, but one that is so often misplaced. If he had a skilled, talented trainer behind him, or a chance to build his talents on his own, he might even be able to support his claims. But no, all he has is a neurotic teenage boy insulting him and holding him back whenever he-

Herbert: Kirk, Dragon Pulse again! Show that Altaria that you've got some fire of your own!

-Kirk gives another ferocious roar, spitting draconic blue flames at the Altaria.-

Opelucid, near Sakura

Umbra: -Arrives and comes across the tea-soaked group- What happened here? ._.

Opelucid City

Jacob: "I think I spilled more tea on me than I actually had. I'm not actually surprised by this turn of events."

Regina: -Helps Jacob up, as he's still a bit injured-

Jacob: "Right then. I think I'm going to go get the gym thing out of the way so I can enjoy my time here later."

-See's Umbra- "Ah, hello Umbra. Nice to see you again. Um, a small teleporting mishap is all. We had tea. And were sitting. And teleported here. Where there were no seats. Then gravity won again."

Darner: -Is currently flying upside down for fun-

Are you ready to head off to Opelucid yet?

Opelucid Gym

The Altaria is hit this time and flails as it's cotton wasn't able to reduce the damage "<Owowowowowowow!>" he said as he flailed.

"Strike back with more fire!" ordered Drayden

"<O-Okay!>"

The Altaria then fired another stream of fire at Kirk.

Opelucid Town

"Teleporting at bad times." said Sakura, giggling, to Umbra.

"Oh, hi there." said Lyuri as Duke helped her get up, with a wave to Umbra.

- Nods -

Sure. I can't really think of anything to do around here, anyways.

Tagg: Pittoo will take advantage of every single one of those dragonfly facts. Except the last two.

Opelucid, near Sakura

Umbra: Ah, that explains it. -Waves to Lyuri, then helps Seth help Sakura up-

Opelucid, secluded spot

-Crow, Gogie, and Ghostus arrive here-

Gogie: <Alright, so what did you find out from Jacob?>

Ghostus: <Is it going to be as annoying as it sounds like it'll be?>

Crow: "Alright..."

"Turns out Zeal is really a persona created by the 'original Zeal,' Zach, to try and drive him to continue after... something happened to Fajro."

Ghostus: <And somehow it's worse.>

Gogie: <Did he tell you anything else?>

Crow: "Besides what we already knew about a different aspect trying to kill him, Jacob thinks it's because Fajro's really dead."

"I told him I think it might be worse than that."

Gogie: -somewhat on edge- <How much did you tell him?>

Crow: "Nothing you wouldn't have wanted me to. I would have made him bring you into the conversation if I was going to do that."

Gogie: -calmer- <Okay, thanks.>

Ghostus: -to Gogie- <You really should just tell the others about that, you know.>

<It's really been weighing heavily on you.>

Gogie: -to Ghostus- <I'm not the only one with secrets, Wrathbert.>

Ghostus: <...>

<WHO TOLD YOU ABOUT THAT‽>

Gogie: -coyly- <A little Murkrow.>

Ghostus: -to Crow- <CROW!>

<WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT‽>

Crow: -to Ghostus- "He's your best friend and you never told me not to tell anyone."

Ghostus: <WELL DON'T TELL ANYONE ELSE, THEN!>

Crow: "Alright, I won't."

"Anything else we need to talk about? I think we should head to the Gym soon."

Gogie: <I'm fine.>

Ghostus: <Eh, I am too.>

Crow: "Great, and don't tell anyone else about the Zeal thing until we get it worked out."

-Gogie and Ghostus nod-

-Crow recalls them, then heads over to the Gym-

Excellent, we can go see the Village Bridge together.

Opelucid Gym

-Kirk is brought down to all fours by the Fire Blast, though by some miracle of determination he hangs on, breathing heavily.-

Kirk: <No... not losing here...>

???: Kirk is your last chance. The only hope you have here. If he goes down, you've lost. Who else are you going to rely on? Falchion? That little runt can't win here. You need Kirk. And he's going to lose.

Herbert: No. Be quiet. We're going to win this. Kirk, Psychic! Blow that bird out of the sky!

-Kirk gives a small nod, then pushes himself up onto his knees and attempts to think the Altaria into submission.-

Lacunosa

-Maggie is near the west exit and may or may not run into Tagg and DS as they leave Lacunosa-

Village Bridge Cafe

| A Litwick is posing as a candle on one of the tables, draining the customers slightly.

Opelucid Gym

The Altaria is hit again and this time is struck down "<Ooooh... The sky is so starry today.>" he said as he colapsed on the floor

"That's an impressive Lucario, I never would have expected it to stand all this fire, neverthless, he won't be able to last longer than this." said Drayden as he called his Haxorus out "Dragon Dance and Dragon Tail."

The Haxorus just gives a fierce roar before trying to hit Kirk with his tail.

Opelucid Town

"So, hello Umbra, how're you doing?" asked Sakura, with a cheerful smile, after being helped out.

"I'm gonna head inside and switch clothes, be right back." said Lyuri, going inside the Pokémon Center

"Hm... Interesting, I can't read your Aura." said Duke, intrigued

Lacunosa

-Elise and Momohime are trying to find Serenity's Pokeball-

Elise:I know I had it somewhere...

Momohime:<I do not see a Poke Ball anywhere here.>

-Outside, Serenity is ranting to a Tranquill who is not paying attention to her-

Serenity:<I knew this would happen. I tried to tell her that she would lose her balls if she just tossed them on her bed like that, but no, she doesn't listen and runs off to see her friends out at night.>

-the Tranquill snores-

Serenity:-offended- <Excuse me, are you even listening?>

Tranquil: -snores-

Serenity:<How rude!> -Ice Beams him, scoring a OHKO-

-Just then, Elise finds Serenity's Poke Ball. She recalls her, then after saying goodbye, heads out to Opelucid-

Elise:I need a Flying type...

Opelucid City

-Straw is on top of a skyscraper bordering Route 10-

I wonder if I could get there...

Lacunosa

-Rawst wakes up on thfloor of his center room. He gets up and finds Nymph and a stray Smeargle in his bed cuddling-

Rawst:...Why am I on the floor?

Nymph:<You fell off. We took advantage of that~> -winks-

Rawst:...Well, at least I don't have to sleep there to tonight. Anyway... We should get going. I have a feeling everyone has left.

-Nymph is recalled before she can protest. Shortly after, Borealis and Blythe enter-

Borealis:<Oh good, you're awake. I had to pull Blythe out of here before she got squicked.>

Rawst:<Good idea.>

Opelucid City

Jacob: -Having mastered the art of quick-change from Lity, was already in a new set of dry clothes- "... I think I'll just go to the gym now. Regina, you can stay here. I don't plan on using you anyways." -Walks off-

Regina: -Nods wordlessly, and remains silent-
