ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

CU, Castle of Reflection

-Dune summons Seiten, but before he can turn around to attack the barrier, the hand that took Fenrir returns, gripping on the side of the bridge.-

Dune: Woah!

-A second hand accompanies it, and with a mighty heave, a massive icy suit of armor is hauled from the mists - a Golurk covered in wicked blades of ice and whose hide gives the dull gleam of battle-tested steel.-

Ymir: NONE SHALL PASS!

CU, Delta Quadrant

Positron: [... Er, well, you see...]

Galvani: <Oh Arceus you did name her Amaterasu, didn't you?>

Neutron: [Strictly speaking, that's the name she came with.]

-The light continues to give a soothing glow.-

Positron: [Anyway, we can guarantee that the Phantom wouldn't even dare of thinking to let this one out. Have you seen anything on the island yet?]

Galvani: <Just some trees and grass, rustling in the wind.>

-There's a deathly silence on the comms.-

Galvani: <... Guys?>

Positron: [... There isn't supposed to be any wind on that quadrant.]

-Before the conversation can continue, Galvani is struck with a *CLANK* and sent into the nearby crystal wall.-

Galvani: <... ow.>

-The source of the strike is nowhere to be seen.-

Siobhan: "I presume it works for pokemon, as well?"

Pastoria City

Zoe is wandering around Pastoria, her attention focused on a thick sheaf of papers which she's currently rifling through.

Lane:...oh dear sweet Arceus. ._.

-Gulp-

So...are we...still doing the same strategy?

Pastoria City

-a boy wanders by Zoe, not paying her any particular attention-

-his Chimecho, on the other hand, is a different story-

Breeze: (in a tone of voice that suggests that he isn't already attempting to peer over Zoe's shoulder to look at her notes) <What do you have there?>

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Pastoria City

Not understanding Monese, all Zoe hears is a loud ringing noise that alerts her to Breeze peering over her shoulder.

Zoe: Aaah!

The sudden Chimecho causes her to drop her papers, which promptly go flying everywhere. She panics and scrambles to pick them up.

Zoe: Sorry sorry sorry... oh Arceus, it's gonna take forever to sort these again...

-Ever is startled by the shout-

Ever: Wha— ...Oh no.

Breeze: <Not my fault.>

Ever: Yes it was.

-he goes over to attempt to assist Zoe in regathering-

Ever: The least you could do is help, really.

Breeze: <I'm only a simple Pokemon. What if I got them out of order?>

Ever: You can read. That was...like, the first piece of information you ripped out of my mind.

Breeze: <I prefer the term "appropriated".>

Ever: I don't.

(to Zoe) I'm sorry about him. I think he might be possessed.

Breeze: <I'm not possessed! I am a bright spark in a dark world.>

Ever: So's a forest fire.

Ren: An unseeable enemy. Great...

-Abe no Seimei eyes gleam as he begins to chant...-

Abe no Seimei: A shield beyond sight... A ne'er failing light... A shield beyond sight... A ne'er failing light... A shield beyond sight... A ne'er failing light...

Abe no Seimei foresaw an attack!

-The group can hear Mendel exhale in relief-

Mendel: Gooood... A collapsing bridge is one thing... But a giant is something we can handle.

-Pythagoras begins his analysis.-

Mendel: That Ymir. I'll relay intel as it becomes available.

Pastoria City

The mention of the word "help" causes Zoe to become even more flustered.

Zoe: N-no thanks! I'm alright! I've g-got this! No help n-needed!

She scoops up the last of the papers, clutches them against her chest furtively, then looks bashfully at Ever - or rather, at the ground somewhere below Ever.

Zoe: It's o-okay... I have a Dusknoir who's k-kinda like that...

Pastoria City

Breeze: <Aww. I was totally going to help too.>

-Ever takes a step back-

Ever: Well, if you're sure. I—

-he hears the word "Dusknoir" and his face lights up-

Ever: You have a Dusknoir? Can I meet them? I have a Dusclops, but he lives at home 'cause he's a big sourpuss.

-he begins emitting sparkles. Careful observation will reveal that this is the result of a Braixen standing behind him using Ember-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Pastoria City

Zoe blinks at the sparkles, then nods nervously.

Zoe: Um, s-sure. He's, uh-

Revan: ~Right here.~

Zoe: Gah!

She drops her papers again as Revan emerges from the ground behind her.

Zoe: Why do you h-have to do that every single time you appear?

Revan: ~Family tradition.~

Pastoria City

Ever: Ah! I love him!

-he waves frantically at Revan-

Ever: Hi! I'm Ever! It's nice to meet you!

Breeze: <And I'm apparently the possessed one.>

Brushfire: <I'm pretty sure he leases out to ghosts. It's like a bed and breakfast.> -sniffs-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Pastoria City

Revan: <Greetings, mortal. I've come to tell you that your death will be horrifying yet profoundly educational.>

He looks over at Breeze and Bushfire.

Revan: <Mind if I pay a visit? I like floating into people's rooms and moving stuff around while they're asleep. It really messes with my trainer.>

Meanwhile, Zoe shuffles her feet.

Zoe: Sorry, I, um... I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Z-Zoe. Zoe Silverman.

Pastoria City

Ever: (brightly) Well, I survived being attacked by a murderous Latios, so I'm sure whatever does do me in will be pretty cool.

Brushfire: <Don't hold back on our account.>

Ever: Nice to meet you, Zoe. I'm Ever Memito.

CU - CoR

Verax: ".... I really like battles on bridges. Oh well. Hello big boy! Let's get this fight going!"

-He snaps his fingers as Take-Mikazuchi appears and hurls a blast of Electricity at Ymir-

CU - Delta Quadrant

Jacob: -He tenses as Shiva throws up a Protect- "Alright now what??? Dezi are you alright?"

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

Pastoria City

Revan: <Death by Latios would be a pretty good way to go. Certainly beats getting stabbed by a two-bit dictator and thrown off a wall. That sucked.>

Zoe looks at Ever with more curiosity than amazement.

Zoe: You survived a L-Latios attack?

Ever: Uh...yeah. It would definitely suck.

-he blinks-

Ever: And yeah, that happened. Twice, actually, but I had help the first time. Long story.

Umbra here, just waiting on Siobhan getting an answer before continuing.

Though :P at Psyche's reaction to the Nexus.

Who is this Umbramatic you speak of? Tis just me, a talking sock.

".. Oh no." Arahabaki puts up a Reflect.

off the shits

Pastoria City

Zoe: I'll b-bet...

She looks down at her feet, then yelps as she realises that not only are her papers still on the ground, but some of them are being taken on a leisurely tour of the city by the breeze.

Zoe: Oh nonononono I'm so sorry but I gotta grab these before they go everywhere and oh geez I think that one just landed in a puddle okay bye!

She dashes off, Revan floating behind her and occasionally using Psychic to keep the papers airborne even longer.

Ever: Uh, bye.

-he tilts his head slightly-

Ever: (after she is out of earshot) What an unusual person.

Breeze: <Hiding something?>

Ever: Isn't everyone?
