The Wanderer
Tapu Village PMC, yesterday
From: Tagg
Right, I should probably tell you that according to reports Kartana are Steel/Grass type, so kinda like a Ferrothorn, if Ferrothorn had the rough special defense of a piece of paper. That said, it strikes you and you're likely dead.

Oh, excellent. That's information that will definitely be coming in handy. Thanks! [/sincere]
Amanita: EVER!
Ever: -ducking a Guillotine- What? I can multitask!
Amanita: You took the time to tag it sincere?
Ever: It was tonally ambiguous! I don't like when people think I don't appreciate them!
Amanita: Lugia's cloaca, will you stop being ridiculous and help us get out of here alive?!
Brie: Lugia's cloaca, really?
Ever: Oh, right, yeah, they're Steel/Grass-type and they're super weak to special attacks. Brie, you've got Skyfire, Amanita, you said you had a Fire-type?
Amanita: Oh, great...do I have to send her out?
Ever: It seems like a better option than dying!
...
I mean, if that sort of thing bothers you.
-he shrugs-
Amanita: ...Fine. Oxy, do your thing.
-she sends out a mon-
-and the room goes temporarily dark-
Ever: Um.
Amanita: Smog. Don't breathe in.
-and then the smog explodes in a shower of sparks, revealing-
Oxy the Salazzle: <Hello, Alola!>
Amanita: We're in a cave under Poni Island, there is nobody to showboat for.
Oxy: <Except the fans, darling.>
-she winks at the screen-
Oxy: <Now, what will you be needing?>
Amanita: I—
Oxy: <Psyche! I'll be the judge of that!>
-she uses Flame Burst, forcing the Kartana back-
Amanita: Oxy, we don't need to fight, we just need to get out of here. If you could—
Oxy: <Darling, darling darling darling. I don't interrupt your screentime, don't interrupt mine. After all, this is my debut.>
-she uses another Flame Burst-
Amanita: So yeah. Meet Oxy.
Ever: Do I have to?

Hano Grand Resort, Ren's Room
-Ren, Kitsune, and Rio are enjoying a private performance by Maria and her musical bubbles on the balcony.--Keys and Menehune are in the floor next to the bed discussing making new covers for Menehune.-
-Everyone is having a nice, quiet evening after the celebrations.-
-Obviously, this can't continue...-
-Ren's Holo-caster rings. Ren answers.-
Ren: Hello.
-Nalani's image appears. Her expression is fretful.-
Nalani: Renard, sorry to call you like this on your birthday, but you and your... um... Friends... You all handle weird stuff, right?
Ren: -suddenly serious- It depends, but in general, yes we do.
Nalani: Then I think there is something you should see... This is tonight's headline for the island's paper...
-Nalani holds up the a newspaper with the headlines...-
Ren: Gamma, I need you to get me details.
-Gamma's projected image appears from Ren's holo-cane.-
Gamma: Affirmative, Master Ren.
-After few moments, several windows to news articles and video links appear.-
Gamma: Displaying results now.
-Ren expands the first window and quickly reads the article, details after a series of women and female Pokémon have gone missing, Three of the human victims were found wandering in the snow, their clothes torn and in a state of delirium. The only coherent bit of evidence the police were able to get from the victims was about "a man in white in his palace". Searches have been launched, although nothing has turned up.-
Ren: Why is it always today?
-... So, obviously, it didn't.-

Don't interact with Amanita's weird lizard-y thing. She's terrible.
Amanita: STOP TEXTING!
Ever: DEATH FIRST!
Amanita: THAT CAN PROBABLY BE ARRANGED!
-Skyfire and Oxy, meanwhile, have formed a wall of flame in between the group and the Kartana-
Ever: Okay, that's a start, but if we want out of here, we should probably try pushing them out of our way, right?
Amanita: Is there some reason you're not helping us out here?
Ever: Yeah, all my Pokemon right now are basically babies. They'd die. Except Pleth, maybe, but like, she's a close range fighter, and so she'd probably also die.
Amanita: So you're useless?
Ever: I'm texting in the middle of a life-or-death battle. What gave you an impression otherwise?

Without any thumbs to operate his phone, no pockets to hold his phone so he could listen to music, and no one to practice battling against, Colton had spent as much time as he could trying to keep himself entertained.
His attempts didn't last very long. Batting at Sylveon's feelers earned him a single Pixilated Swift star to the face, climbing around on the couch earned both Sylveon's AND Lucario's ire, and you could only wander aimlessly around a living room for so long before you memorized all the details.
<We checking this thing out or what?> He said as he stood next to the door, like the impatient little puppy he was.

Lisa: <Well, you have a brother, but you had him since earlier. You do have a younger sibling now, I suppose, yes.>
Butterfree: <Uh, well, lots of types. The instruments can work with anything, really.>

<C'mon, it's basically a bloody Legen-mmph!> Colton was interrupted by snuggles.

Oxy: And I love you, darling.
Skyfire: <Who are you talking to?>
Oxy: <The fans, darling. The fans.>
Amanita: Okay, in all seriousness, we do need to go. Oxy, can you help clear a way?
Oxy: <Nonsense. Where's the flash? Where's the showstopper?>
-one of the Kartana reaches past the flames and slashes near Oxy's feet, cutting through the stone of the grotto like butter-
Oxy: <On second thought, of course, one should always leave them wanting more.>
Brie: Skyfire, help out!
Skyfire: <On it!>
-Skyfire uses Fire Spin, while Oxy uses Flamethrower, forming a path. The three race down it, Amanita and Brie recalling their mons the second they're past the Kartana-
Ever: Amanita, get Box out ahead so she can form her Dive bubble! We need to be ready to go as soon as we can!
-as the flames fade, the Kartana give chase-
Ever: Oh dear Zekrom they are uncomfortably fast!

If anyone sees an underwater cavern near Poni Island, just leave it alone.

Ace: <What could that be?>
-He's spotted a glint in the sand.-
Shaun: "Better not be another rift that flies into the sky."
-He approaches and sees a circular, mettalic object jutting out of the sand. He gently pulls it out and blows on it.-
Shaun: "There's something on here...TM13?"
Ace: <Ice Beam. That could be useful.>
Tsunami: <Jamie and I can use that.>
Shaun: "I'll have to see if it works. It should - these things are pretty durable - but if not, I think it might be repairable."
-He stands up, TM in hand.-
Shaun: "I'm heading back. Enjoy your walk."
-He turns around and walks towards the lights of the Pokémon Center.-

<I know how to evolve, the problem is just combating in general. Also, ask those guys, they can vouch that I was originally human.

-Krieg finally got enough information about the girl that fused with the Nihilego. First: Her name was Mezzo. According to all the recorded fights that includes her, she uses only dark types. Among many other things. The door opens, and Frieden enters-
Frieden: Hey, I think I forgot some shit.
Krieg: It's your office, shit head. No need to justify.
Frieden: Hey, do you know where I put my hard drive about Ultra Beasts?
Krieg: Third shelf.
Frieden: Thanks.
-Frieden begins to rummage through the shelf.-
Krieg: Hey asswipe.
Frieden: Yeah?

-Krieg stands up, a luxury ball in his hand, He attempts to throw it, but the other Frieden has faster hands. The other Frieden sends out a Clawtizer to shoot a highly concentrate Water Pulse at Krieg. A direct hit. Krieg is thrown across the room into a wall. The other Frieden grabs the UB Hard drive and runs.-
Krieg: Fuck....
-Kreig tries to turn on his Comm-
Krieg: Frieden... Frieden! Some intruder that looks like you came in and stole the Hard drive about the UB!
-The Comm malfunctions and sparks fly.-
Krieg: Shit, the comm did not fare well from the impact.
-Krieg takes his comm off and quickly chases after the Other Frieden-

Having been released from his cuddle, Colton landed on all fours, landing on lithe feet from his recently-acquired parkour knowledge.
<Should be fun,> Colton hummed. <Might want to take this outside, though,> he added as he re-approached the door.

So far so good. I think.
Ever: So, uh, first of all, I think I have a vague idea what happened with our ancestors.
Brie: They went into the portal and were never heard from again?
Ever: Whoa, are you psychic?
Amanita: Right, so, it's becoming fairly clear that we are going to have to fight our way out of this.
Ever: That's unfortunate. I kind of like these guys.
Brie: That's fine, but they're also holding us here, and I just ran out of jerky.
Ever: Hmm. Well, in that case, Muninn.
-he sends the Mimikyu out-
Muninn: <What do you want?>
Ever: Tell me everything you know about Kartana.
Muninn: <Kar-what?>
-he turns to look at the Ultra Beasts-
Muninn: <...Uh, I've never seen those before. In my life.>
-Ever blinks-
Ever: So, uh, we might die down here. Anyone have any last texts they'd like to send?
