ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Snowpoint

-Joseph, upon seeing the chipper, happy attitude of Skye, immediately brightens, as though reflecting-

Joseph: Hi there!

Jubilife, Magnet Train Station

-Looking around-

Wow, this is pretty cool.

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Snowpoint

Dune: It's, ah... still taking some getting used to.

-Deziree jabs Dune in the gut.-

Deziree: Big baby. Oh, hi Sky! Hi Diane!

-Maggie has come here as well-

Maggie: "Nice that things seem to be cooling down..."

Kernel: <We just came from a place where snow is a near constant feature. This doesn't seem like cooling down."

Maggie: "Well... getting into a good temperature range, I mean."

Eterna Forest Outside [Past]

Ark: ... I see. Thank you.

-it's then that Kiaran bursts out of the front door of the mansion and takles Ark to the ground. Verigan marches out behind him.-

Ark: <Kiaran! Get off you're heavy!>

Kiaran: <I'm sorry, I'm just happy to see that you are okay!>

Verigan: <We hath made a compromise and freed all the taken!>

Audra: <Thanks. I guess.>

Ralli: <Verigan! What th' heck were ya thinkin'?!>

-Ralli tackles Verigan's leg in a hug as the two proceed to have the most awkward reuinion yet. Ekundayo hovers nearby while Barclay rolls his eyes. Huet is pulled aside by the rest of the ghosts to converse.-

Eterna Gym

-Ark nods firmly, crossing her arms and puffing up a bit. She's not nearly as intimidating when she's all groomed. She attempts to stand on her tiptoes to gain a bit of height.-

Ark: I insist. It's an order. No mercy.

Snowpoint

Skye: Guess what~?

Diane: Normally I'd just tell you guys "what" but you should definitely guess this time.

-Diane winks-

Snowpoint

Dune: Uh... hold on... You're pregnant!

-Deziree smacks Dune on the back of the head, the latter having a giggle fit.-

Snowpoint

-Skye barely seems fazed-

Skye: Highly unlikely to ever happen in my lifetime, but nice try!

Diane: Sooooo, you know how we expanded our relationship and for a while now Alyssa's been dating both of us in addition to us with each other?

Snowpoint

Dune: Uh.... noooooo, I don't think anyone ever told us.

Deziree: Though that's... certainly an idea...

-Deziree gets a weird look on her face.-

Snowpoint

Diane: ...Oh. Well, we have been for a while. Like, almost a year.

Skye: So now that you do know that, as of just a day or two ago we're also with Psyche and Noelle~

Diane: You wouldn't believe the hopelessly gigantic crush she had on them. Especially Psyche.

Route 217

-Jacob is walking south with Regina, Argentum, Phlegethon, and Discord-

Jacob: "I'm unaccustomed to such severe cold. Shoal Cave did drop to temperatures comparable to this, but my stay there was not nearly this long."

Argentum: <Analysis. It is cold.>

Jacob: "Yes. Thank you, Argentum. Your observations are so deep and revealing."

Argentum: <You're welcome.>

Regina: -She glances over at the treeline- <... Did any of you see anything, or was that just me?>

Phlegethon: <...>

Discord: -He looks around, then sniffs the air- <... I don't notice anything. Must just be your imagination Regs! Hah!>

Jacob: -He narrows his eyes- "... That's not usual. Everyone just keep an eye open and remain vigilant. Things have been too quiet lately."

-There's a fleeting shadow in the treeline, and a faint creak and sound of breaking wood-

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

Snowpoint

-Dune blinks.-

Dune: Wow. That's... certainly a logical conclusion...

-Deziree elbows Dune in the ribs.-

Deziree: Hey, don't be rude.

Dune: I'm not! I'm just saying that it is a sudden step up though in the grand scheme of things it makes sense.

Deziree: I also know what you're thinking, and stop it.

Dune: But-

Deziree: I know it's in there. You can't hide it from me.

Dune: I-

Deziree: And you know what? If I ever get into a cloning accident... maybe.

Dune: Well- ... oh. I, uh...

Snowpoint

-The two smirk-

Skye: Oh my. How lewd.

Diane: If you need help figuring out that cloning accident, feel free to give me a call, I'd be happy to help. Or talk to Sarah, she has experience with cloning accidents.

Route 217

Regina: -She stops walking- <... I think we have company->

-And she gives a sidelong glance as a tree slams against a hastily created psychic barrier and shatters-

Jacob: "... Wait what was-"

-He turns around just in time to see a gigantic metallic monstrosity standing five feet away from him-

Administrator: <It took you long enough. I had planned to waylay you children as you left the city, but few of you have departed. I suppose your broken body will be enough of a warning. And perhaps a dent in your group's overall abilities.>

Jacob: "...." -He sends out Voidstar, Pest, and P-1- "Fight me if you want, but you're not going to hurt my friends."

Administrator: <.... Very well. Let us see what you can do to me.> -It lowers its stance, red eyes gleaming-

< I am the third shard of Calamity, Destruction. Your attacks cannot break my form.>

Jacob: "... We'll see. Alright everyone, scrap this thing!"

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

Snowpoint

-Dune's face is so red he's deciding to just shut up at this point. He's just happy Ludmilla can't feel the sheer embarrassment coming off of him.-

Deziree: Oh, don't worry. I have self-standing orders that if it ever comes to that that each clone is going to go through a random interdimensional portal to create a research facility. Also, Dune will pick the one that stays.

Psyche blips in. ~Not the ones, plural, then? o3o~

"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassin

-Amatsu continues to Outrage!-

-Amatsu hurts herself in confusion!-

-Amatsu attempts to continue to thrash Wilbur, failing horribly and falling on the ground, helped there by snow blowing in her face.-

-Siobhan diverolls to the side to avoid being crushed by charging glitch thing.-

-The various dragons start attacking it, to surprisingly little effect.-

Siobhan: "Try blowing away the mist?"

Zhi Shen Lung: ~It is more of a plan than anyone else has.~

-A combination of Twisters and various windy moves later, it seems to have had a marginal effect.-

Gogmazios: <Keep blowing away the chemtrail monster!>

-Collective sigh from the other dragons.-

-Siobhan may be near Tagg, attempting to explain to Gogmazios how, no, Maglev is not a government conspiracy. And nor is physics.-

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

Snowpoint City

-Diane puts a hand to her mouth, in genuine amazement-

Diane: Wow, you really have this whole thing planned out.

-Skye, meanwhile, beams as Psyche shows up-

Skye: Oh, hey! We were just talking about you and Noelle!

-Diane grins and waves at Psyche-

Snowpoint — Past

Wilbur: <Phew, finally.>

-He blows another gust of cold air at Amatsu-

Psyche smiles. ~Hey cuties~ ^_^ Talking about us, eh? Only good things, I hope. o3o~

"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassin

Route 217

-There's a flurry of movement, as several streams of fire bear down on Destruction, Voidstar hurling Ice Shards, P-1 zipping around to slash at it, Regina trying to blast it back with powerful bursts of Psychic energy, Argentum trying to pin it in place with Telekinesis-

-As the dust settles, the mechanical titan is completely unharmed, seemingly-

Destruction: <This is the power of a Champion? Pathetic.> -It dashes forward, the sheer power of it's movement kicking up a cloud of snow and cloaking it in a miniature Blizzard, as well as shattering the ground around it and creating a visible pressure wave, grabbing the entirety of Pest in one hand, and clutching on to one of Phlegethon's wings-

<Try as you might, your meager attacks cannot harm me.> -There's a sickening crunch sound as it closes its fist and Pest falls out, knocked out. Phlegethon lets loose with a point-blank Fire Blast, and as the embers clear, Destruction's hide is glowing white-hot with a few burning embers that quickly burn away-

< You thought after the trick your friend Tagg pulled, burning me would assist you. Suffice to say, the same trick will never work on me twice.> -It yanks Phlegethon down and hammers a fist into the Charizard's stomach, sending it tumbling back-

Phlegethon: <...> -He weakly pushes himself back up to his feet-

Destruction: <Pitiful.> -It vanishes backwards and grabs P-1, the Bisharp's arm crumpling in the grip of the iron behemoth, and is hurled into Voidstar. Before either can recover, it dashes forward again and slams its foot into the pair, and they both lie motionless-

Jacob: "..." Well this isn't good. Argentum, Regina, Discord, Phlegethon, I think we're going to want to run. -He recalls the fallen members and starts trying to run for Mt. Coronet-

-Regina and Argentum both throw up a massive wall of snow and ice, pulling from their surroundings, trying to encase Destruction as they start to disengage-

-Phlegethon limply takes to the air to follow Jacob, as Discord lets loose with a Blizzard on the ice barrier to reinforce it-

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

Snowpoint

Deziree: Oh yes. Very good things~

-Dune just continues to go red.-

Psyche grins. ~Oh my~ You flatter me, sweethearts~~

"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassin

Snowpoint

Diane: Well, of course, there's nothing but good things to be said~

-She pulls Psyche into a hug, and gives her a kiss on top of her head. Skye, meanwhile, simply grasps Psyche's hand.-

-The whole display is almost sickeningly endearing.-

Psyche smirks. ~Already you're lying to me, what a heck of a start to a relationship, dear~~

"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassin

Snowpoint

-The pair smirks-

Skye: Hey, she said the only stuff worth saying was good.

Diane: That's not a lie, is it?
