ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Pagoda Roof

Lane:Tch.

-More Bubblebeam!-

Pagoda

-Soul staggers from the Rockslide and Bubblebeam, falling to his knees-

"... No... no.... I can't.... I can't lose... you don't understand.... I... need to..."

-It's body starts dissolving-

"I... needed to win... you're so.... cruel...."

-It collapses, shaking the tower with a loud thud-

Verax: -Breathing heavily- "Haaaahhhh..... it's... over..."

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Pagoda

-Seiten remains deathly still. Dune's gaze holds, and his nosebleed has mostly subsided.-

CU - Pagoda Roof

Alright, I think we're done here. The tarot should be revealing itself any moment now.

-He shrugs and finds a bit of wall to lean against as he recalls Orpheus-

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Pagoda Roof

-Lane falls to his knees-

Lane:U...Ugh...finally,...

-While Mendel blasts Jacob with a Heal Pulse, he notes something on his display.-

Mendel: Ummm... Soul's signature isn't fading.

Ren: Wait. What?

CU Forest

-Shadow!Joe was busy using Synthesis with the time he was given before being struck. He growls again-

~We're not done yet!~

-in order to heal more, he animates the grass beneath their feet to wrap around their ankles, draining their energy-

Another green world.

Pagoda

Verax: "... Wait, what?"

-Jacob stands up, sighing- "Thanks... I just.... I.... I..."

-FWOP-

-A hand bursts out of the chest of the beast-

Soul: "I REFUSE TO LOSE!"

-And he tears out of the beast, smoke billowing off his body-

Jacob: -Summoning Pyro Jack- "It's over, you lose."

Soul: "   I NEVER LOSE!!   "

-He stomps the ground as the life force of many demons is sapped from the tower, and he's engulfed by a massive black pillar-

-Once it fades, he's standing there, entirely covered in wrappings, and the entire roof of the pagoda shatters-

"... Now, we end this."

-In a lightning blur, he's in the midst of the group with a fist straight through Pythagoras' face, a light cloud of dust kicked up behind him-

-The shadows cascading off him coalesce into a wicked serrated Scythe-

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

CU Pagoda, Past

-Mendel doesn't even have time to react as Pythagoras is One shot, and shatters in blast like staticy stained Glass.-

Mendel: Hu— *slump*

Ren: Apparently the gods want make me unhappy by making me actually be right in the end.

-Izanagi grows a bit taller and slimmer as he uses Automatize to increase his speed.-

CU Forest, far Past

-Pythagoras and Izanagi are sapped. And Mendel Once again Marks Shadow Joseph with Lock On.-

Ren: I think it's time to pay the piper...

-Izanagi swipes at Shadow Joseph with his spear-glaive Pulsing with vindictive energy.-

Pagoda

-Seiten is up in a flash, Mach Punching Soul in the face.-

Forest

-Dune and Seiten are drained through their feet... While Galvani and Yurlungur just fly up higher, because neither of them have feet.-

CU, Pagoda

Lisa: <Well, that's just wonderful.>

-Titan attacks with a Drain Punch while Phobetor uses a Zen Headbutt-

CU, Forest

-Titan and Phobetor are once again struck by the attacks and starting to feel it-

-Titan Fire Punches the roots again while Phobetor uses Dazzling Gleam-

Eterna Center

-Maggie is here, doing nothing of consequence-

"life is just a series of increasingly canon-eluding ao3 tags" ~ everydunsparce "Keep your hellfruit away from me, tempter" ~ also Every

Snowpoint City

Airy: -starts humming a tune-

Eterna City

Noelle: No, I'm serious! Shipping Dagger and Beatrix has way more chemistry than her and Zidane!

Lily: I'm sorry, but no. Dagger/Zidane and Steiner/Beatrix are canon. Deal with it.

Noelle: But really, just look at them! The princess and her knight!

Jenna: Oh my dear Arceus, would you two nerds stop talking about what ship is better?

-as their trainers continue to argue, small Delphox approaches a normal-sized Gardevoir, who is standing with her eyes closed-

Lulu: <Hey hey hey.>

Yuna: -does not respond-

Lulu: <Hey Yunie! I'm talking to you!>

Yuna: -still no movement-

Lulu: <Come on, wake up!>

-Lulu hits the Gardevoir with a tiny Blast Burn-

-she still doesn't budge-

Yuna: ~What do you want?~

Lulu: <Finally, a response!>

Yuna: ~You're interrupting my meditation.~

Lulu: <Yeah, whatever. So I wanted to ask a few things.>

Yuna: ~Such as?~

Lulu: <So you're a Psychic type, right? And named after a character from Last Legend Episode 10, like me?>

Yuna: ~Yes.~

Lulu: <Great. That means we should be friends or something.>

Yuna: ~If you insist.~

Lulu: <So I wanna know. Do you have any really flashy stuff you can do with your psychic powers? I've been doing great with fire and all, but I really want to see if there's a superstrong Psychic move I can do to totally obliterate everything.>

Yuna: ~...~

Lulu: <So, how about it? You think you can show me something cool?

Yuna: ~I can think of something.~

-Yuna opens her eyes and telekinetically levitates the small Delphox to about chest level, then creates a black hole and sends Lulu flying into it-

Yuna: -sigh- <What a pest.>

-she then closes her eyes and resumes meditation-

Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.

Eterna City

There are a number of options.

Blue and Red are wandering around - Red's in a nice, white oxford and jeans, while Blue is wearing a fluffy oversized sweater under her lab coat.

Elsewhere, there's a blue Blaziken wearing a golden half-mask that comes to a point half-way down his beak, covered in intricate designs.

In a third location, a certain girl who is very fond of pink is sitting on a bench eating ice cream, accompanied by her Carbink.

Eterna

-also a number of options!-

-a white-haired young fellow, humming to himself and wearing a lovely dress-

-a tall redhead with a chip on one shoulder and a Purrloin on another-

-a young girl, sitting on a bench and reading-

Another green world.

Pagoda

-Soul staggers back from the combination of blows and roars, roars so loud the entire Pagoda shatters and enters a state of free fall-

-He then crosses his arms and starts gathering energy, black electricity dancing up him-

Soul: "Behold..."

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Eterna City

Red spots Joseph first.

Red: OOOOOIY! Joe! My dude, my guy, how are you?

Blue does that sort of second-hand embarrassment flinch-blush thing.

Blue: Sorry. She's been a bit, er... bubbly? Yeah. Bubbly. Lately.

Red laughs and picks her up, swinging her around in her arms, before dipping her for a kiss.

Red: Well! What can I say? I have the best girlfriend around.

Eterna

-Joseph giggles, twirling a bit on his own-

Joseph: You think I'm the sort who cares about bubbliness? How's it been going with you two lovebirds?~

Another green world.

-Izanagi's once again grows slimmer as he gets a bit taller and more speedy.-

Freefall Pagoda

-Seiten dashes back a way, and seems to tighten his focus. Dune, meanwhile, has managed to grab Galvani and is cradling her in his arms.-

Cathedral, past

-To Vierr-

We can continue doing this, or we can stop for the night.

Eterna, yesterday

-Seems to be having an internal struggle before answering Blitz-

I have.

Eterna, today

-Is looking around for Maggie-

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Freefall Pagoda

-Lisa takes to the air, but notices the group is falling enough, so dives to keep up with them-

Lisa: <Jeez, you hate flying so much you can't even do it right!>

-She dismisses Titan-

Phobetor: <Agh! What the hell, Soul?>

SleepyHead: <Okay, stay calm, stay calm...>

-Phobetor uses a Calm Mind for the both of them-

Eterna Center

-After some searching, Tagg would probably run into Maggie here with SleepyHead-

Maggie: "Oh, hey, Tagg."

Eterna City

Red: Oh, its been great. I'm just... I'm very happy. She's so smart and pretty and just great!

Blue is a tomato.

Blue: Y-yeah. We're... we're good."

Enigma snorts from his perch on a nearby lamppost, reading a book.

<Enigma: Took you two long enough.>

Eterna City

Joseph: Aaaah, it's good to see a young couple fall for each other!~ I need to do more with Munn-get him his limbs, that stuff.

Another green world.

Freefall Pagoda

Soul: "RENDER YOURSELVES UNTO OBLIVION!!"

-He spreads his arms and massive pillars of shadow bombard the group, dealing Shadow type damage and siphoning their energy-

-Jacob ducks out of one of the blasts and lets loose with a Fire Blast-

-Verax is knocked out by the blast-

"If there is no way to win, I will simply force a way."

Eterna City

Red: Oh yeah, your boo. How's he doing?

Blue is currently glaring at Enigma, who does nothing to acknowledge her.

He flips a page.
