ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Phoenix:Alright! Step 1 of Phoenix's Super Awesome Battle Plan: Catch some BIRDS!

Party

-Echo contemplates-

Echo: Unfortunately, until we get word from our informant, we really don't have an idea what Mobius is planning next. For now, we should stay here and keep ourselves composed. Perhaps in the time it takes, we'll get to watch a few League challenges.

---

-Elsewhere, Kaito and Anabel are discussing the situation.-

Anabel: Unfortunately, I have a bit more multiversal experience than I'd particularly like. Looker and I are both planning on taking direct initiative in this crisis. Of course, Hoenn has its own history of having particularly fragile boundaries, so if need be, you can put your own experience to use there.

Kaito: Noted. With any luck, we won't have any problems there anyway, but if the case arises, I'll be there.

Elsewhere

-Spacetime fluxuates, and suddenly the Purple Sword is gone from Interpol's custody.-

Lanakila

Deciding to walk around the center instead of just simmering, Colton spotted a familiar purple-haired lady. He approached them, not really wanting to get too involved yet.

Gabe: Leauge challenges are nice! Though, yeah, should my buddy Phoenix get some birds?

Shaun: "Good."

-He grabs one of Kirai's Ultra Balls and recalls the Drifblim.-

Shaun: "We should walk back to Hearthrome, turn him in. I'd fly, but Ace's harness isn't sized for a human."

-He jerks Kirai to his feet roughly.-

Shaun: "Hold him for me, would ya? I need to tend to the Ralts's wounds."

---

Shaun: "Yep. *to the Catmons* How high are you three?"

Luxray!Cassanova: <Yes.>

-Shaun shakes his head, grinning.-

Shaun: "I'm not suprised."

Butterscotch: <Marshall's...in the back.>

Shaun: "I gathered."

-He unlocks the front door and steps in, setting his pack on the ground.-

Shaun: "Shoes off, please. I know we're just walking to the back door, but it's ingrained into me."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Kaisei: "Don't need to tell me."

-He takes off his shoes and puts them in hand as he goes into the house-

16 is sitting on top of the mountain, observing the island. Enjoying the sights and watching the many bird pokemon.

Leaving Rossum was the best choice ever.

Though he still has a lingering desire to fight and capture the J-Team and PEFE, he'll grow out of it.

Party

Echo: ...I don't see why not.

---

-Anabel and Kaito catch sight of Colton approaching-

Anabel: Hello?

Kaito: The J-Team has picked up a few new faces in my absence, looks like.

Blush Mountain

-The tap tap tap of what sounds like a very small metal thing walking toward 16 can be heard. If he were to look down, he'd see what looks like a bronze automaton modeled after a Pidgey-

Pidgey Automaton: Excuse me, sir. I am on patrol here, keeping an eye out for unfamiliar Pokemon species that may or may not be causing mayhem or destruction, and I'd like to ask you a few questions.

16 looked at the creature and blinked (read: flashed his eyes) at it. He was all for birds, and talking birds were fun, but this one was... well... metal.

It was a surprise, <I can answer some questions about mass destruction>.

16 wondered if it had anything to do with Rossum's attempt to reclaim him awhile ago.

Lanakila

“Nice to see ya again, Anabel.” Colton nodded. “Though there is one question I kinda want to know. Did we ever find the Wormhole we were initially looking for? Also, any info on the sword?” He asked, conjuring a facsimile of the sword in question before dissipating it.

Blush Mountain

Pidgeymaton: Excellent!

-The Pidgey automaton lets out an electronic chirp.-

Pidgeymaton: To introduce myself, I am an automaton from the Daedalus Division of the Bronze Birds. I am Daedalus Unit 32, or "DU-32" for short. Recently, a number of attacks have been reported around the Alola Region, including one in particular here on Blush Mountain. Now, do you know anything about these creatures, which have officially been classified as Ultra Beasts?

Party

-Kaito's eyes go wide with abject horror upon recognizing the shape of the sword.-

Anabel: Unfortunately, we still do not know much about the weapon in question; attempts to identify its origin are unsuccessful, because despite appearing to be a macuahuitl, it seems to be in a far too pristine condition to be as old as that would indicate. However, in regards to Scarlette and the—

Kaito: Please do me a favor and never go looking for that sword again, nothing but bad ever comes out of it.

-Anabel blinks.-

Gabe: Great!

-to Phoenix-

Should we go find some birds?

Contact Me!

Minister!Aerodactyl: <Perhaps we should go over what we know?>

???eon: <And question the suspects more!>

Bomb Disposal Snorlax: <I can hold them so they don't escape?>

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

Fortis: Oooooh, what are bronze birds?

Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.

Lanakila

“You mean to tell me you know about that sword?” Colton asked with genuine intrigue. He quickly set up his phone to record the conversation. “What do you know about it?” He asked.

“If it means anything, I got a pounding headache upon seeing it, but wether that was the water pressure crushing my skull or the sword somehow fighting the post-hypnotic triggers my Ninetales has on me is something I don’t know.” He started.

Kofun: Now everyone, let's act sane and rational...

Contact Me!

Narrow: <We don't need to go over anything! It's clear what happened!>

Estoc: <Going over what we know would be incredibly useful.>

-PEFE!Every has left her team in charge of transcription, because none of them can get carpal tunnel syndrome, and she's currently poking around the ship, Cytosol scanning to stay out of Izaya's way-

-Ever arrives here, waving to Amanita, who is watching the sky-

Ever: Have you seen my cat?

Amanita: -shrug-

Ever: ...You're very drunk right now, yes?

Amanita: -thumbs-up-

Ever: Right, okay. Hmm...

-he cups a hand to his mouth-

Ever: KAITO AND MEZZO IS THE WORST J-TEAM FAN SHIP!

-...-

-and he's immediately tackled by a small blue-and-white cat-

Ephemera: -Ducklett Banette!-

Ever: Yeah, yeah, whatever you say.

-he skritches her behind the ears-

Ever: Where've you been?

Ephemera: -Aipom, Jangmo-O Gyarados, Exeggcute Delphox, Oranguru Honchkrow Type: Null, Xatu, Xatu, Xatuuuuu, Yveltal Klefki, Tyrogue! Chatot Delphox, Cherubi Doublade Palkia Nihilego-

Ephemera: -Exeggcute Palkia, Wailord Dragonite Torterra Torterra Sigilyph!-

Ever: ...Okay then. ...Wait, so you were there?

Ephemera: -...Y-

Ever: ...

-he hugs Ephemera very tightly. She mews in annoyance-

Ever: Oh Reshiram I've failed as a trainer you could have been hurt what were you thinking what was I thinking oh my gosh I'm so glad you're okay...

Ephemera: -N Dunsparce! Meowstic Buzzwole!-

Ever: Yeah, yeah. Just don't run off again, okay?

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Edge: <So you must be wondering what's been going on with the twins this past year. WELL!>

Jacob: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

-Yeah no that went about as well as one would expect-

-Dune looked cool though-

Verax: -Being led to execution chambers- "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Verax Veraxing off into the Sinnoh Fight Area: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Discord: <WHY ARE WE SHOUTING?!?!>

-In the peaceful evening, Jacob sits with a book and a glass of wine next to the now de-ghosted fireplace-

Jacob: "...."

"I wonder how everyone is doing?"

-Kaito pinches the bridge of his nose-

Kaito: When a person with Ghost Obscura or the potential thereof gets ahold of the Purple Sword, the thing starts to possess them and gives them incredible power at the cost of being a colossal megalomaniacal asshole. It's one of four artifacts that need to stay out of the hands of any and all people with any sort of Aura capability because they fuck everything up for everyone.

Anabel: ...I take it you've experienced the effects of one of these firsthand.

Kaito: Don't remind me.

-They hear Ever, and just. Blink. Several times in a row.-

Hollow: <An agency of avian vigilantes who protect the world from the skies!>

-His Bronze Bird sigil shines in the light, and his cape billows in the wind. One can almost hear the trumpet fanfare. Almost.-

Hollow: <Although we are a young organization, we plan on having members across the globe for wherever our assistance is needed!>

Melemele Meadow

VW: <I agree! We should go over a convenient recap of the information we have!>

Iri Manor

-An Abra has been knocking on the door for a while. He is very tired.-

Jacob: -Takes another long sip-

BZ-BZZ!!

Jacob: "Huh, I wonder who that could-"

-He crushes his wineglass in his hand upon reading the message-

Jacob: RIGHT I'D PROMISED I'D DO THAT

-Regina gets the door-

Regina: -Dusting off her legs- <Oh hello! Can I help you with something?>

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

-Ever winces-

Ever: Sorry Kaito I really needed to find her!

-he then hears Mezzo-

Ever: Oh my gosh I missed you so much!

-he puts Ephemera down to wave-

Ephemera: -Spinda...-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Fortis: Oh my gosh that's amazing! Are you brave knights like Minty?

-Mezzo waves back-

Mezzo: Hi. I missed you too.

<Extradimensional Pokemon like creatures of immense Power and Size. Known to do strange things.>

The data from Aether on the beasts was easily gathered, seems they hadn't fully blocked him from the Rossum 16.

<Why do you hunt for this data?>
