ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Pyrite Police Station

Lillith: ... Glitches? Um, I wouldn't know anything about that, but... there was this weird fog, and there was this guy... and he was accompanied by this... mutant Aggron thing, or something... Anyways, he attacked Sherles, so I tried to stop him, but they managed to take down my entire team...

Sasorina: <Our attacks barely seemed to do anything...>

NI HQ

-Alys sighs and pinches the bridge of her nose. Ordinarily, she wouldn't be too fazed, but it's clear that the weeks of hard work and logistics in establishing the team and base have been wearing on her-

Alys: Why is your Aggron a team leader.

-apparently, when Alys is annoyed, she doesn't use question marks-

-To Lillith-

Did the Aggron and the man look static-y at all? Any idea what they wanted?

NI HQ

Wilhelm: Oh, Arahat isn't their leader. He merely discovered them in the midst of some notable dire straits and made them a tantalising offer.

(He pauses.)

Wilhelm: ...though, you do recall Arahat's function with the original Illusion, don't you? Would you mind reinstalling him in such a post?

Pyrite Police Station

Lillith: Um... "Static-y"? I don't know, but... he did say he wanted to make the world a better place, and before he knocked me unconscious, he said there was some information he wanted.

-To Lillith-

What kind of information?

Pyrite Police Station

Lillith: Well, he... he managed to obtain information about some of the members of the J-Team. I don't know what he intends to do with it.

Pastoria — After the Fight

Diane: Pretty much it boils down to me saying I could definitely kick his ass, him going off about how impossible that is, the world sorta blurring, and next thing I know, I was right.

Vierr: Thanks for rubbing it in.

Psyche is taking in the cash~ ~Sorry, house always wins, boys~~

She waves at Vierr and Diane as she saunters over. ~You can kick my ass anytime- I uh, mean~

To Vierr: ~So it looks like you're making me a rich lady, Terrible?~

Pyrite Police Station

Lillith: (looks at the list) Lane Heiden... some Clefairy named Mondo... Pentigan... Dune... Galvani/Deziree... Jacob Iridis... Verax Iridis... a Hypno named Sleepyhead... a Talonflame named Lisa...

Sasorina: (tilts head, looking over Lillith's shoulder at the list) <Wanting information on other humans I understand, but why these particular Pokémon...?>

Lillith: (continues reading the list) Renard Clavis... Professor "Silent"... Jules Mendel... Desmond "Des" Decartes... Rebecca Goldman... Joseph Hudson... Daydre... and Lyuri Riese.

Pastoria

-The two stare blankly at Psyche-

Vierr: ...Did you just say what I think you just said?

-To Lillith-

I can get why they'd want the humans, but why the mons?

Daydre, Mendel, Lane, Mondo, and Lisa joined up after we fought Cipher so I don't know how they got files on them, they've probably been talking to the Kalosian, Ranger Union, and [Japanese] governments from fan observations of us.

Do you think they were Cipher? But then... they'd want whatever info they had on me too if they were... Hmm...

Psyche shrugs. ~What, Terrible? Sorry, habit I picked up from Crewe.~

Pastoria

Vierr: No, before that—

-He's muffled by Diane-

Diane: Oh, don't worry about him, I heard you just fine.

-She grins and winks-

Pyrite Police Station

Lillith: (shrugs) I have no idea. The guy kept saying he was "someone who had been given a second chance to make the world a better place"... What did he even mean by that?

Sasorina: <Hey, Lillith, don't forget how he and the Aggron thing were totally in sync!>

Lillith: Ah, right... During the battle, the Aggron-ish thing kept moving whenever he moved his arm... It's a little difficult to explain... I thought I could put a stop to it by simply stopping the guy from moving, but... well, I was wrong.

Psyche is totally not the same shade of red as her head, nope.

~Right, anyway, nice job Diane~~

Great Marsh, past

Fenrir: -Starts squeezing harder-

Fenrir, stop. We don't need to kill him.

Fenrir: -Quits squeezing Westar, but firmly holds him in midair-

Pastoria, today

-To Lillith-

Totally... in sync, you said? Did this guy have any special items, or weird eyes?

Pyrite Police Station

Lillith: Ah, now that you mention it... Yeah, his eyes were like, glowing...

Pastoria

-Diane smiles innocently at Psyche-

Diane: Thank you~ Anyway, we should get patched up properly now.

-She glances at Vierr-

Diane: If anyone asks, we had a bad run-in with an Inkay and a Staraptor.

Vierr: Well, it's not wrong. Do Staraptor eat Inkay?

Diane: If you were anyone else, I'd think you were flirting with me.

Vierr: Oh shut up.

-They start hobbling away, at a pace slow enough that they could hear anything else anyone has to say-

Pastoria

-Jason chuckles-

Jason:Heh...

-He flexes the mechanical joints in his false arm-

I should get to training too...

Pastoria, last night

-Shakes head as the two depart-

Well that's a relief.

Pastoria, today

-To Lillith-

Were they... golden by any chance?

Pyrite Police Station

Lillith: (nods) Yeah, they were... Have you met this guy before, or something?

-To Lillith-

No, but I've met beings like him.

--

I'll tell those involved about the guy, but otherwise it's better if this stays between us for now. Don't want to tip him off that we know of his existence.
