Sarah: Oh geez.

-Cassius grins at the Milotic-

Cassius: <Oh, of course I'm powerful. Here, let me show you!>

-He jumps at the Blastoise with a Night Slash, full force to show the Milotic just how powerful he is-

"No, it's fine. "

Lavaridge, Sandzel's Suite

Denzel: Alright, I think I've got it!

Sandy: Oh?

-Denzel raises the Transistor devices. A big blue button is presented on the side.-

Sandy: ... Where did that button come from?

Denzel: I don't know - it just showed up when I put them together like this! Let's see if this did the trick!

-He hits the blue button. There's a bright flash.-

Sandy: Aw, jeez that's bright!

-The flash subsides, and the two blink their eyes clear.-

Sandy: ... Um... I don't think it worked.

Denzel: Agh, darn, thought I had-

-Denzel looks over and sees what Sandy was talking about.-

Denzel: ... Um... Nice suit.

Sandy: Why is there a "Lopunny suit button" on there? Why is that a thing?

Denzel: Uuuuuuuuh... o///////o

Sandy: Just get it fixed while I go take this off!

Denzel: That body looks good in blue. o/////////////////o

-Sandy throws a pillow at Denzel's face again.-

With the Bisharp infatuated, the Milotic focused on Helian and dodged the Energy Ball.

"Take care of that nuisance with an Ice Beam!" said Wallace

The Milotic then fires back at Helian, this time trying to make sure to get a clear hit.

The Blastoise is struck and takes very heavy damage, but manages to barely hold on.

"<H-Heh, got a bit too cocky there.>" he grinned

"Aura Sphere." said Juan, with a confident smile

The Blastoise then attempts to fire an Aura Sphere at Cassius at point blank.

"Certainly, I always carry my deck with me just in case." she nodded "By the way, was the Cofagrigus behind me yours?" she asked with a smile.

-Tori may get a text!-

Sootopolis Field

"Alright, then let's give a test run to everyone. A quick three on three."

Sootopolis Pokémon Center

Jacob: "Uh, no. He's a friend's. He just happens to be related to me. By several hundred years, but yeah."

Sootopolis Pokémon Center

A noticeable glint shows up in Marie's eye "Is that so? Would you mind answering some questions about that?" she smiled, now looking much chipper "That is, after your reading? I would prefer having somewhere to sit in order to do it."

Sootopolis Gym

-Helian is struck, and clatters to the ground, falling to very low health-

Jacob: "Okay, you can do this! Try one last time! End this!"

Helian: -Huffs and puffs, and flashes over to the Milotic to catch it in a large storm of wind and leaves, draining his strength significantly doing so-

Sootopolis Pokémon Center

Jacob: "Sure."

-He looks behind him-

"Well if you want to sit down we could just go find a table in the lobby. Or I mean Hikari and I's room is right behind me. Honestly it's up to you."

"Okay." She returns all of her pokemon except the three previously mentioned.

Sootopolis Field

Max let's his team stay out, and calls forward Gi-Gi, Geist and Lockjaw. "Okay, you ready then?" As he says this, he points to Lockjaw and gestures forward the gator taking up a place in front of his trainer.

???

-a mushroom cloud. It blossoms with the beauty and fury of an apocalyptic rose, creating a blinding white light before its terrible effect makes itself known. Trees are atomized, the ground scorched, nothing being spared of its fury-

-on the other side of the glass, two white-haired boys watch-

Anxiety: Oh dear...did the Giants lose again?

Happiness: Yep. We gotta hope that Anger can clean up his mess.

Shade wakes up from his well deserved rest. He then walks outside the Pokemon Center and goes back to meditation. Sunny is also lying down and observing the cloud. They may be approached.

Sootopolis, Past

"Yep."

She sends out The Punisher first. The Togetic appears to be holding a small purple lump.

-Cass is blasted back, and staggers.-

Cass: <Urk... heh, why wouldn't I? I've gotta show off for her, don't I?>

Sootopolis Field

Max rolls his shoulders, and stretches out his arms, cracking his joints. "Alright, let's get right too it. Lockjaw, Ice Fang!"

<Let's do it!~> He charges foreward, opening his mouth up wide, white fog roiling out of his mouth, while his teeth glow a pale blue, attempting to crunch down on the togetic.

Lavaridge, Sandzel's Suite

-Sandy is sitting on the bed crosslegged.-

Sandy: You sure it'll work this time?

-Denzel holds up the Transistor device.-

Denzel: Nope! Which probably means it will work!

-He hits the two green buttons that appeared on the device.-

*SHWEEORK!*

DenzelDune: Oh, yeah, that's the sound it made alright.

-Dune looks around.-

Dune: Woo!

Deziree: Yay, it worked!

-Deziree flops back onto the bed.-

Deziree: Woo, man, feels good to be back in this body...

-Dune fidgets.-

Dune: ... Dezi, what- what am I wearing?

-He shifts uncomfortably. Something didn't fit right.-

Deziree: Oh, just a new present~

-Dune heads into the bathroom.-

The Milotic is hit by the Leaf Storm, but still holds on

"Still standing, that's a strong Sceptile. Still, it's just stalling. Ice Beam!" said Wallace

The Milotic then attempts to finally take Helian down with another beam.

"Surf!" said Juan

"<Don't worry, you'll be showing her exactly what she wants to see.>" said the Blastoise

He then crashes a giant wave onto everyone once again, the damage taken by the Leaf Storm and Surf putting the Milotic at dangerously low health.

"<Tch, nevermind me here...>" said the Milotic, huffing

Sootopolis Pokémon Center

"Well, the room is right here."

Victory Road

Ever: I can't believe we have to go through this whole rigmarole again.

Flashback! Hoenn Skies...

Spathi: <Ever Grande, right ahead.>

-suddenly, a series of Hyper Beams plunge around the two, forcing Spathi to do a barrel roll-

Ever: Oh, great.

Six Seven Pseudos Kid: -from the back of a Dragonite- What do you think you're doing, Ever?

Ever: Wait, you know my name?

Spathi: <...This guy again?>

Seven Pseudos Kid: Of course I know your name. I know everyone's names. Now, stop trying to hop plot-critical checkpoints, okay?

Ever: Look, I'm not some sort of game protagonist. I don't know what story you're trying to tell, but my plot is in the E4 building, not Victory Road.

Seven Pseudos Kid: Cute. But no. You've got a date with destiny in there, and it's my job to make sure you don't miss it.

Ever: I thought it was just your job to keep me from violating the mechanics of a game this entire universe is based on.

Seven Pseudos Kid: Don't get smart with me. Land or I start shooting.

-he gestures behind Ever, who turns around to see a Hydreigon recharging after the Hyper Beam-

Ever: Ugh, fine. Spathi, can we land on the south half?

Spathi: <...No problem...?>

Seven Pseudos Kid: See you around.

End Flashback!

Ever: I wonder what he was talking about, anyway.

-Ever hears shouting from up ahead, and runs forward to check-

Sootopolis Field

"Quick, dodge and use Double Team!"

The Punisher isn't able to dodge quite in time, though, and the attack gets him- dropping his health by an eighth.

After he's away from Lockjaw's... jaws... his form blurs and multiple clones appear around him.
