Battle Frontier - Past

It took only a brief look for Sakura's eyes to widen "Sensei?!"

Akane glances at him, who only answers with a nod

"Uh... If what you're telling me is true then... Did you release this Greninja or something?" Akane asked.

"Oh." Sakura sighed "The thing is, he's actually wild, but he hangs around me because the Greninja that is indeed under my ownership is his kid." she rubs the back of her neck as she tries to explain it

"Whoa, you're a dad?" asked Akane, glancing at Sensei who once again only answered with a nod

"Until now I wasn't having problems with him being wild but... I guess it happened now." said Sakura.

Battle Frontier

Zrone: "YOU!!"

"Oh this is Zrone I've been trying to get some of your lousy friends TO FIX MY HOME."

"AND THEY KEEP HANGING UP ON ME."

"It's quite rude."

???

-The former Swellow has righted herself, but still looks rather unpleased-

Aero: <The 'corruption'? Is that why I'm not a bird right now?>

Route 202 - Last Night

Shinobi: <Good night>

-He waves a little, then turns to the other two mon-

<Did I hear you right about trying to get a glitch to send you home?>

Jubilife

-Mondo likewise huffs, but declines to admit his mistake with a response-

Blitz: "Yeah, I understand pokemon. Let me guess, your Lucario is translating?"

-He smiles-

Route 202, last night

Pyrrha: <Yep!>

Kokone: <Her idea, not mine.>

Route 202 - Last Night

Shinobi: <I thought you two said you were from around Eterna forest, can't you just walk there?>

Jubilife City

Silas: Yep. He's been translating for me for a long time. When he actually feels like talking.

Hacks: ~Hey when we meet new people, I'll talk. You just know how to read my expressions.~

Snakeye: *Looks at the two of them* <So what are your names?>

Route 202, last night

Kokone: <I said Eterna. Not the forest.>

Pyrrha: <We... learned it's not so much a where as a when.>

Samus: <Ridley is only a small part of the bigger issue we're facing here. He's trying to experiment on this corruptive substance he calls Phazon — the same one that changed all of you from birds or humans or whatnot into what you are now.>

-She does a brief overview of the damage she sustained from the attack that sent the group here-

Samus: <Of course, almost everything is malfunctioning... Whatever that Phazon stuff is, it almost feels wrong to call it a "substance". It seems almost... alive?>

Battle Frontier — Past

Sarah: That explains it... Well, um, I guess it's up to you two to decide what to do about it?

Battle Frontier — Present

Sarah: ZRONE?!

-Beat-

Sarah: Never heard of you. You said some of the J-Team ended up wrecking your house? I knew we were responsible for a lot of collateral damage, but usually we fix it... Need any help?

???

Mezzo: <Ridley? Fortis' Aerodactyl?>

-seeing the others get into suits, Mezzo attempts to do the same; it's a bit of a struggle to fit into one-

Mezzo: <Wish my boyfriend was here. He knows a lot more about being a Dunsparce than I do.>

Route 202 - Last night

-Shinobi just staaaares for a few moments-

<So, you need to time travel to get home. That would explain it>

-He rubs a head fin awkwardly-

<Well, I have some friends who might now about that sort of stuff. But personally I've never dealt with anything like that>

Jubilife

Blitz: "I'm Blitz, the grumpy one is Mondo. Nice to meet you, other than the 'stealing' thing"

???

Aero: <That does sound like trouble>

-She stares at the remaining suit for a moment, then finally decides to try crawling into the strange device-

Battle Frontier - Past

"Well... If he has a kid of his own then I can't keep them separated can I?" she sighed "I should've known it was way too easy to capture a Pokémon like this."

"Sorry about all this. I will try to go there pick up Sensei soon. You're still at the Battle Frontier right?" said Sakura.

Battle Frontier

Zrone: "Well, that'd be nice. I mean, I've already rebuilt most of my home, but I meant more of my home as in my region. I was born in Eterna, though now when I look outside my new home I just see big blocky white distortions of reality and it makes me upset."

"And when I tried talking to the Iri twins they just kinda hung up on me! Do you have some other numbers I could try calling or texting to you know, just kind of give a heads up?"

Jubilife City

Silas: Silas, Silas Grant. And it's more common than you think.

Snakeye: <We were just getting parts for one of his various gadgets.>

Tae: <He likes to build and tinker. Me. I just like to relax, and probably sleep if I could.>

Route 202, last night

Kokone: <We met one of them. He suggested the Entralink.>

-Kokone folds her arms-

<But my friend here is convinced we should try for a glitch since that's closer.>

Pyrrha: <Yeah, we don't know if something that'd do it'll show up soon.>

Kokone: <I'm pretty sure we could've gotten home by now if we had just gone.>

Pyrrha: <Maybe.>

<But can you guarantee we wouldn't find a way back in the time to get there anyway?>

????

Wirrbelle: <Hm, I see. We've been calling the substance 'glitchiness' or something along those lines since we didn't have a better name.>

Venomous: <Er... you... know how to change us back?>

Route 202 - Last Night

Shinobi: <I don't know, but I imagine just about anything would be more reliable than trying to get a glitch to send you through time, let alone to the right time>

Jubilife City

Blitz: "I can only imagine. But that's cool, some of my friends are pretty good at tinkering and science and stuff. Got anything in particular you're working on?"

Mondo: <You're just lucky you weren't stealing, otherwise we'd have to beat you all up>

-Blitz nudges the cranky mon to get him to shut up-

Jubilife City

Silas: *Puts his mask back on* A few AI programs, balance systems for bipedal motion. And this. *Holds up his Pokedroid* It's a personal project. *Presses a button and a holographic map is projected* I call it the Pokedroid. Still a work in progress.

Hacks: ~The fact that he's J-Team doesn't surprise you?

Silas: I figured as much since he could understand his pokemon.

???

Samus: <Different Ridley, as far as I'm aware. This one's a Charizard, or at least, was. It looks like he got fused with one of his Gabite lackeys. Unfortunately, I'm still working on figuring out how to deal with this... "glitchiness" other than just blasting it until it doesn't exist anymore.>

-She scans her surroundings. Anyone else in their own suits might find that they can do the same through their visor, as well as use some variety of energy-based attack through a cannon on their suit's left arm. Coordinating the entire suit might take a bit of time to get used to, though.-

Samus: <Hmm... it looks like we're somewhere between Pastoria City, Solaceon Town, and Veilstone City, but it doesn't seem to be any of the charted routes... There seems to be a path to the Solaceon Ruins up ahead, though.>

-She looks back at the group-

Samus: <Be careful with those. On the off chance any of you have experience with them, those are somewhat modified Rahkshi armor, so they operate more or less the same way. If not... well, I'm sure you'll get used to them before we get into too much trouble.>

Battle Frontier — Past

Sarah: Yeah, we're here still. If you're headed over here, it'll be nice to see you again~

Battle Frontier — Present

Sarah: Ooooooh, you're in Sinnoh. Don't worry, they're already taking care of the glitches up there. I can head up there to try to deal with the stuff in your immediate vicinity, though.

???

Marvel:<Rahkeshi? What's that?>

Marco:<Phazon...hm.>

Route 202, last night

Pyrrha: <But it's more... convenient!>

<Yes, convenient!>

Kokone: <I'd call the Entralink convenient. Not this.>

????

-Venomous shudders a bit at the comment about fusing-

Venomous: <Mm...>

-Wirrbelle has climbed into one of the armor things-

Wirrbelle: <Well, the best option is to try and use these, then.>

Venomous: <Yeah...>

-She gets into one herself-

Battle Frontier - Past

"All right! I'll have Daisuke teleport me there soon, bye!"

Sakura waves and then ends the call. Akane then gives a resigned sigh

"... Is it bad that I'm kinda wishing I never encountered you here today now?"

???

Mezzo: <What is a Rakshi?>

-Mezzo attempts to use the cannon on her armor, and fires out a small Dark Pulse-

Mystery Zone (South of Solaceon Ruins)

Samus: <Long story short, the Rahkshi were armored Dunsparce devoted to a power-crazy Cofagrigus in Holon. After the Cofagrigus in question got buried under a mountain for trying to take over what he knew of the world a few years ago, I had to go and prevent one of the Rahkshi from digging him out. I ended up repurposing its armor afterward.>

-She watches Mezzo fire a Dark Pulse-

Samus: <...Huh. I guess being part Purrloin gives you a bit of an edge. The corruption disabled most of our normal abilities, but left Hidden Power intact. For you, though... you've got a little bit more to work with, it seems. Be careful, though, I'm not entirely sure how much that suit can take of attacks it's not outfitted for.>

-She continues down the path-

Battle Frontier — Past

Sarah: I don't blame you. You seem like you two have grown rather attached to each other.

Route 202 - Last Night

Shinobi: <I wouldn't call it convenient if you got sent back to prehistory or something...>

Jubilife

Blitz: "Yeah, that's kind of a big tip off... The group kind of attracts unusual people like that"

Mondo: <And that's not all he can do either>

-He actually gives a boastful smirk-

???

Aero: <I see...>

-The newsparce takes some time fumbling with both the controls, and how to use the controls in an unfamilar body, but some how manages to get it moving awkwardly in mostly the right direction-

Mystery Zone

Mezzo: <Joy. I guess I'm a Normal/Dark type now too?>

Battle Frontier - Past

"Well, he was my first Pokémon..." she sighed

"<She's definitely not a bad girl, all things considered it could've been much, much worse.>"
