ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Cu - Theater

-Joseph is thinking, making a :/ face-

CU, Rose Arena

-Shadow Lisa has her Special Defense lowered by the metallic sound-

-She responds, however, by using a Swords Dance to raise her Attack-

Moh Shuvuu: <Stockpiling so much? You'll never win that way...>

-Yurlungur would probably feel Taunted-

Jasonscape

-The shot lands true-

Pessimism:KYAAAAAGH!

-She goes flying back, now completely a dull gray-

Jason:-whistles-Daaaaamn, Uzu. Savage.

-He walks over to the fallen form-

So...that all ya got?

-The aspect sits up-

...???:'W...Who...?

CU, Rose Arena

-Yurlungur hisses at Moh Shuvuu. Galvani gives a harrumph of irritation as she orders Yurlungur to Acid Spray the Shadow and the Shadow's shadow. Dune then gets an idea.-

Seiten Taisei: What, is that it?I've heard better insults from the mouths of toddlers, you winged plague vermin!

-Moh Shuvuu is likely Taunted. Also, he may need some Rawst Berries for that sick burn.-

Jasonscape

(Belinda and Uzuri hang back and watch. Both believe it would be sensible to let Jason deal with one of his own mental aspects.)

-Blitz watches as Futility is returned to Pessimisim and blown away.-

-He sheathes his sword and walks up to get a closer look at the now grey aspect, and headtilts at it's question-

Blitz: "...Do you remember what happened?"

Jasonscape

-The aspect tilts her head, causing a light purple ribbon to tumble out of her hair-

??:Remember what?

-!-

Oh!

-She holds a hand to her ear-

Who...uh-huh...oh!

-She hops up-

Uhm...Mr. Potential wanted t' see me! I forgot today's my welcoming day! :D

-She turns to leave-

Oh, right!

-She smiles-

Skeptic:I'm Skeptic, nice to meet you~

-She dashes off-

Jason:...well, that happened.

-The Positives arrive-

Hope:You...You converted her to a Neutral...and destroyed the Shard...fascinating!

Jason:Well...skepticism beats pessimism, I guess...hehe.

-Beat-

-Jason stumbles a little-

Ooph...that took a lot outta me...

-He smiles to the group-

Let's...get outta here, huh?

Hearthome Hospital, today

-Jason is walking out, bandage around his chest still-

Nurse:Same time next week?

Jason:THAT ISN'T FUNNY, LISA!

-Sigh-

Gah...I need sleep...

The next day, Raeburn bought everything he needed for the next day, and reunited with his Pokémon.

Raeburn: Is everyone ready for the gym?

Ryuu: Hell yeah!

Ismene: I'm prepared for anything, master.

Ged: Yes, but I'm very weak to grass type pokemon...

Scarlet: Let's burn 'em all.

Raeburn: *Knocks at the gym door* Hello, anyone there?

*Open for interaction*

Zrone Zone

Administrator: <I can understand this primal state of communication. It is difficult to interpret but I am capable. Speak, dragon.>

Chundona Village - Past

Zoya: "We will if something happens. For now though, it's not your island, we'll treat all the guests fairly."

Abram: "Hm. Well there all those new visitors."

Zoya: "And I need to go greet them, if you're quite finished."

Stormchaser, Main Deck

-Vega hits the deck with a *CLUNK*, feeling less than inclined to stand back up. He had just been rather impressively manhandled by an aggressive cloud of flower petals. Never mind that the weilder of said petals was extremely good at it, that already qualified this as a less than stellar day. Not having great defenses just made it worse.-

Vega: <I... think I'm done.>

Norm: <Vega concedes! Isn't that lovely?> =D

-Flanagan, meanwhile, is nursing his own share of injuries from Hildr. The two had type advantages on the other, but Hildr's defense and offense beat out Flanagan's straight offense in a protracted battle. Which is why he had an ace up his sleeve. Good thing, too, since Hildr not having an ally meant she could-

Hildr: <Here comes an AVALANCE!>

-Oh, yep, there it is.-

Flanagan: <Anja, incoming!>

Anja: <Wuh oh!>

-Flanagan is swept away by Hildr's broad, icy rush. Anja, being some further distance away, manages to climb on top of a ventilation stack and take refuge there.-

Anja: <Wow, Hildr! That was cool, but also kinda mean! You didn't need to run over Flanny like that!>

-Hildr looks behind her, to see Flanagan's Krookodile body both effectively trampled and perfectly frozen.-

Flanagan: <Bloody piker...>

Norm: <Flanagan is out! I'll get him to the infirmary. He might even get a lollipop! I love lollipops!> =D

Hildr: <Er, woops! Sorry... Flana.... *YAWN*...>

-Hildr's eyes get heavy as Anja sprinkles Sleep Powder over her.-

Zrone Zone, past

Kyurem: <<Well...>>

-gestures to where the others left-

<<I... I initially just wanted to bide time for those humans and Pokemon to escape...>>

-they looks back to the Administrator-

<<...But since you understand me and aren't attacking... What are you? What was that monstrosity I helped destroy?>>

Zrone Zone - Past

Administrator: <... Synthetic life. Similar to Porygon, though more advanced. Omega had a rudimentary intelligence and was created as an anti-Glitch Weapons Platform, the Omni-situational Mobile Evolutionary Glitch Arsenal-gear, an idiotic name, but effective. It was created simply as a weapon of war, and to evolve in situations. The joints needed working, extra armor without restricting its mobility. Had your friend not used that Gravity Well, it would have been leaping all around this chamber, and rushing around at speeds almost unnatural for it's size. Being restricted like that removed that one advantage. It appears the Sectopod is still more cost effective and reliable.>

-It looks over the Kyurem- <I am the second attempt at a synthetic life form. I was created using Omega's base programming and... some unexpected results of Zrone's scepter attempting to interact with the glitches. What resulted I cannot quantify. Explain. I will not go into detail about what exactly I am. It is pointless and would only be used against me. But to put things short, I am the first step towards Zrone's ideal human. I am not human. But I am life, able to stand up to the most powerful of humans and the most powerful of Pokemon. Given sufficient time, even a mighty drake such as yourself would be not an impossible feat to subdue by me. I am perfection over time, and so I manage all the experiments.>

Zrone Zone, past

-At the Administrator's words, the Kyurem's expression goes from wary to something more resembling a scowl, and the temperature in the room drops several more degrees-

Kyurem: <<Your mentality is dangerous. Do you know if there is a Unova in this world? And if so, its history?>>

Zrone Zone

Administrator: ""This world"? Intriguing. Yes. There is a Unova. I am not well versed in it's history. It is irrelevant. ... This conversation has ceased to be useful. Exit or I shall remove you."

Zrone Zone

-the Kyurem moves back a bit, warily, but continues speaking-

Kyurem: <<I-If you insist, I shall leave... But I wanted to warn you... I onced helped rule Unova. I was a metallic being of power, engineered to be unflinching, unbreakable, by a master much like yours...>>

<<...And he was all too wiling to dispose of me at the right "imperfections". I presume this Zrone is the same.>>

-Maggie is around with Habakkuk-

-Hajime is around with Wakaba-

-Shadow Lisa and Moh Shuvuu are sprayed with Acid, not taking much damage, but further lowering their Special Defenses-

-Moh Shuvuu is then Taunted-

Moh Shuvuu: <Ngh...>

-He tries using an Aerial Ace on Seiten Taisei-

Shadow Lisa: <...Well, you'll be troublesome.>

-She does whatever a mon does when they use Psychic to Seiten Taisei-

Skies over Sinnoh

If anyone strolling through the northern reaches of Sinnoh were to look up, they might see a small black dot moving slowly through the sky. Most would simply dismiss it as a high-flying birdmon, but closer examination would reveal it for what it is - an airship, covered in armour but with no visible weapons to speak of, drifting over the region. Though considerably smaller than Illusion's former flagship, it still has room enough to house four wannabe supervillains and all their Pokemon and possessions.

Inside the Nyneve, said wannabe supervillains are gathered in the mess for a team meeting. N1T3SL4Y3R is clad in his new OSCAr battlesuit, though he has repainted it and added a number of Spikes of Villainy so that the suit bears a distinct resemblance to a Bisharp. Batastrophe has acquired a captain's hat that she is wearing on top of her blue wig at a jaunty angle, whilst Iapetus and Helion look pretty much the same as always.

Batastrophe: So, is this amazing or is this amazing? We're sky pirates now~! How cool does that sound? Captain Batastrophe and her gang of sky pirates, the terror of the clouds! Yarr!

Helion: Technically, we're not actually pirates, since we haven't violated maritime law. That and I don't think maritime law applies when you're airborne.

Batastrophe: Whatever. We still have a kickass airship to fly around in~! We can go anywhere! Do anything!

She claps her hands against her cheeks.

Batastrophe: Ooh, I know! We ought to bust Earthwyrm out!

Helion: ...First off, he's not in prison. We can't exactly bust him out of his mom's house. Secondly, I think Smith was pretty clear about what he wants us to do.

Batastrophe: Yeah, but we're supervillains! We don't do what we're told! We break the rules all the time! You've got no imagination, Heli.

Helion: I have plenty of imagination, thank you very much.

Heliolisk: <I bet you do.>

Helion: Not even going to dignify that with a response.

She drums her gauntleted fingers against the table.

Helion: Anyway, let's start talking about what we're supposed to be doing. Lucius Cain... why does that name sound familiar?

Iapetus: You would likely know him as the former Auric Avenger, prior to his unmasking and subsequent death.

Helion: ...So we're looking for a dead guy.

Iapetus: Ostensibly. As of right now he appears to be alive and well, a situation which I am keen to correct.

Batastrophe: Oh, I think I remember that guy! I never paid much attention to him, since I was too busy staring at Shingeko~ Smith's annoyed at him, though, so he must have something to deserve it. Anyway, I'm sure it'll be a laugh~

Iapetus: This may be nothing more than a game to you, but the Cain boy's crimes are no laughing matter. I for one intend to take apprehending him seriously.

Helion: ...You're wearing a spacesuit and talking to a girl dressed as a bat. Explain to me how this is anything other than patently ridiculous.

Iapetus: Hmph. I have neither the time nor the inclination to simplify my ideology for the sake of cretins.

Helion: A pleasure to be working with you as well. I'm sure you and Shadow the Edgehog will get along just fine.

N1T3SL4Y3R:    Insult me all you like. Mockery only serves to fuel the hatred in my heart.   

Helion rolls her eyes behind her helmet.

Helion: If you ask me, something doesn't add up about this job. I can't see a boy scout like the Avenger shacking up with someone like Smith. And this kind of kit must've cost way more than you need to

Batastrophe: Who cares about that? There's more important stuff to think about. Like a name! We need a team name. Any suggestions?

N1T3SL4Y3R:    We shall be the League of Darkness! The heroes of the world will tremble before our might!   

Helion: ...That seems a little on the nose.

Batastrophe: I dunno, I like it. It sounds nice and menacing~

Helion: Yeah, if you're twelve.

Batastrophe: Then how about Captain Batastrophe's Sky Pirates?

Helion: ...On second thoughts, let's stick with the first idea.

Batastrophe: Alright! The League of Darkness is ready to wreak some havoc!

She pauses for a moment.

Batastrophe: Hang on a sec. If we're all in here, who's flying the ship?

N1T3SL4Y3R:    My Porygon. I think.   

A hologram pops up next to him.

Rei: Don't worry, I'm here to make sure you idiots don't all fall out of the sky. I can multitask.

Batastrophe: Oh man, we have autopilot too! That's so cool~

Iapetus: Are you intending to spend the entire day obsessing over the airship's design, or shall we go ahead and make an effort to complete the task at hand?

Batastrophe: Fine, if you insist on being such a moany meanie about it. Let's hit the skies and go get our guy~

Rei's hologram nods, and the Nyneve enters a slow turn as it cuts its way through the clouds.

Solaceon Town

-A certain Wiggytuff is hopping around, being all Wigglytuff like.-

-She may be approached by a certain Clefairy at his authors convenience.-

Blitz: Memorizing the staff's names? You must have been real bored

-Tori is wandering around with a Clefairy for once-

Tori: "I'm almost surpised Blitz let you come out here without him. Doesn't he need you for shifting?"

Mondo: <Sometimes. But there should be much reason for that right now. And I've got something I need to take care of>

-He spies the Wigglytuff-

<Thanks for the ride, guess I'll see you later>

Tori: "hm?"

-She watches him approach the other mon, then decides to duck behind something-

Mondo: <hey>

Hearthome

Jason:-flatly-I've been in an out of there twice in as many months. Cut me some slack. -_-

Solaceon

-Uta squeaks and turns around-

-Her usual grin fades-

Uta:<Oh...hello, Mondo.>

-He rubbed the back of his neck-

Blitz: 'Yeah, guess it's kinda my fault this time, huh?"

Mondo: <So... How's it going? You and Maris do anything fun?>

Hearthome

-Jason pokes Blitz on the nose-

Jason:I was joshing ya, man. It's my fault I let Leng catch me off guard.

Solaceon

-Uta taps her foot-

Uta:<Fine, I guess. Maria found some new Mega Stone for her sheep couple.>

-Hmph-

<Almost jealous about them. They seem happy>

-She leers at him-

<And you? Still being the tough guy?>

-Beat-

<Honestly, I'm surprised you have time for some "Love Freak">

-Gamma is reading something when a Larvitar enters the room-

Rockabye: <Hey, Gamma. I heard you had a fight with the boss?>

Gamma: <We did, yes.>

Rockabye: <You still mad?>

Gamma: <As far as I am concerned, this is one of the better outcomes.>

Rockabye: <What does that mean?>

Gamma: <It means your 'boss' is no longer under the pretense that he is my trainer.>

Rockabye: <...Wait, what? You're not going to be part of this mob?>

Gamma: <I see no reason to. If my former teammates wish to, that is all well and good, but I see no reason to accept that bird as anything more than my former teammate.>

Rockabye: <...You're going away, then?>

Gamma: <Not for now, at least. I did say I would instruct you and I intend to uphold that. I offer no guarantees once I am done here in Sinnoh, however.>

Rockabye: <Well, if you're sure...>

SleepyHead: <Hm...>

<Well, one of the doors seems to be lit with candles, so maybe it has something to do with that?>

-Blitz is booped-

"Maybe. But it'd still suck if you died. Especially after all that time in the hospital and your head"

<Well... I've been pretty busy trying to keep people from dieing lately...>

-Old Chateau- 18 minutes until sunset-

-Verigan and Ralli have joined Cynthia in searching the bed. The resulting search yields more dust thrown into the air. However, it appears that there is something drawn on the ground under the bed.-

Verigan: <We need more help from our comrades if we wish to move this bed.>

Ralli: <I think dat either a really strong Pokemon will do, or Verigan and the rest o' the human will work.>

-Ekundayo seems to have decided she liked Phaz's company over the course of the mansion, as she goes to look in the draws with him. Plenty of old dresses, underwear, socks, and the like are carefully arranged in the drawers. In the bottom drawer, atop of the usual clothes are a almost empty bottle of ink and a used paintbrush.-

Ekundayo: <That's... not supposed to be there... r-right?>

-Imamu, Reset, and Huet have decided to look through the books with Blitz. One of the books he pulls out is most definitely out of place. That sure is a lot of really old dried blood on the cover. The title is "Glitches: A guide"-

Imamu: I was wondering where that went.

-Barclay and Kiaran followed Ashley to look at the painting. Upon closer examination, it appears to be glitching out in places.... did those eyes just blink?-

Barclay: <Mighty creepy painting there.>

Kiaran: <Please tell me I am seeing things.>

-Mondo finds a closet that Audra decides to follow him into. There's a few nice dresses hanging in there, along with a old time-y bicycle, among other objects you would find in a child's closet.-

Audra: <Alright, has anyone found anything of importance?>
