Frank: <WHAT'S UP BITCHES>
Phoenix: Yes. Marvelous. Use Sunny Day.
-Frank launches an orange ball into the air, which expands in size and becomes a large artificial sun. Frank feels energized.-
Haunter: <...that sounds fake but okay.>
<So are there or aren't there Tyrantrum anywhere?>
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Lilac smiles sadly. "No, unfortunately dear, I'm not your mother, though it truly is a shame what she did... I wish I could have intervened sooner. Unfortunately she left my jurisdiction well before I could interfere. And there were... rules preventing me..."
"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassinAspertia City Gym
"An interesting move choice," Cheren remarked. "I see my decision was not wasted.
"Cinccino, Rock Blast!" The Gym Leader commanded, the Scarf Pokemon proceeding to lob a few rocks at the Tepig.
[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]Ever: There are Tyrantrum. They are not everywhere. They do not rule the planet. I know a couple.
PEFE!Every: Wait, what? You knew my mom? What was she like? What did she look like? Do you know if she's still alive?
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.-Frank is hit hard by the rocks, his Blaze immediately activating.-
Frank: <HANDS OFF THE MERCHANDISE, LITTLE PIECE OF->
Phoenix: Frank, use Flame Charge.
-Frank puts his rage, his energy from the sun, and his attunement to fire all to use in one attack.-
Aspertia City Gym
Cinccino's attack was interrupted when a Tepig using Flame Charge had collided with her. She got back onto her feet and glared.
"Another powerful move..." Cheren reflected. "Tail Slap!''
Cincinno caught Frank out by sprinting past him with her tail extended to strike him. And then once more. And maybe a few more times if she wasn't caught out.
[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]Lilac sighs. "She's a... rebellious one. She doesn't value her heritage. Children never value the work we go through. All I should probably say is that she's... closer than you realize. Unfortunately... you both are playing with Fire. And not the fun kind."
"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassinPEFE!Every: ...Oh. So either she's alive, or I'm actually dead and I didn't notice...
...Do...do you think I should try and find her?
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Lilac sighs. "I don't recommend it. She doesn't know quite where you are, and I'm doing all I can to make sure it stays like that. She suspects... but she doesn't know. She is a... particularly distasteful woman. Even for our kind."
"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassinPEFE!Every: Oh...um.
...You keep saying "our kind" and "we" like that that's some sort of category a lot of people don't fit into. What do you mean by that?
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Lilac smiles sadly. "As long as you stay here, I really shouldn't tell you. When I told your mother... it didn't end well."
"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassinPEFE!Every: Oh...if I were sober, I'd probably protest the existence of information to which I don't have access. But...I'm not...
-she hiccups-
PEFE!Every: I think I'm gonna...sleep. There's venom in the fridge if you want any...
-she flops on her desk, snoring softly-
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Lilac giggles and picks up Every and tucks her in bed.
"If I am to be met with disrespect, then I must first love myself with a fierceness no fool can take away." - Vraska, Gorgon assassinHaunter: <Where are the "dinosaurs" you know?>
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?-PEFE!Every doesn't so much as notice being moved-
Ever: Well! Uh...my friend Tagg trains one.
Incidentally, training is when you put a Pokemon into a little extradimensional space, and let them out to befriend them and help them grow stronger.
A dimension is a world parallel to ours.
...A Pokemon is, uh, a word for anything that can think, but isn't a human. Which is the correct word for a primate burrito.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Mimikyu: -leaning forward- <Do you liiiiiike it?>
Glaceon: -She looks the Mimikyu's cover up and down.- <... It's... adequate, if a bit creepy.>
Ninetails: -Stretches- <Hm. Astolfo in general.>
Glaceon: <Point.>
Mimikyu Astolfo: -cocks head. How a Mimikyu with a perpetually floppy plush head visibly cocks their head is left as an exercise for the reader.-
The Glaceon waves a paw down.
Glaceon: <...That said why are you still here?>
The Ninetails swishes her tails in dispassionate disinterest. <Your antics amuse me.>
Glaceon: <... Great, I'm just entertainment.>
The Ninetails chuckles. <Take heart, Masako. That is more than can be said for most, and the reason you and Astolfo yet live.>
The Glaceon Masako frowns.
The Ninetails curls up, an eye remaining open, ever vigilant. Masako, cautiously, settles down, as Astolfo runs around, the head of their cover flopping about, before finally settling into place and plopping down, the cover almost deflating.

Thanks to the efforts of Kaito and a certain trollish Alakazam, Lucius has been successfully transfered to his bed and is currently regretting most, if not all, of his life decisions.
Lucius: Urgh, it feels like there's a party in my head and the rest of my body has called the cops...
Maul: ~Shame.~
Lucius: Stop talking in my mind, you're gonna make me barf. Can't you, I dunno, do something about this?
Maul: ~I could.~
He remains still and silent. Lucius groans and cradles his head.
Lucius: ...You're a real asshole, you know that?
Maul: ~There was a package for you last night, by the way.~
With a blip, a package appears at the foot of Lucius's bed. He sighs and pulls it closer, opening it to reveal three Poke Balls and a letter.
In the aftermath of Lawrence Cain's death, we are obliged to inform you that he named you as his next-of-kin. While most of his assets were seized by the relevant authorities upon the commencement of his trial, he was permitted to keep a small team of Pokemon, the ownership of which now passes to you. We trust that you will take good care of them.
Here at the PEFE, the wellbeing of both trained and wild Pokemon is our top priority. As such, we will now recount your legal obligations as a Pokemon Trainer to ensure that you understand the responsibility placed upon-
Lucius crumples up the letter and tosses it away, groaning.
Lucius: Ugh, I am not prepared to deal with any of this right now...

Psyche is bright and bubbly as if last night never happened. This will surely cause much jealousy.
"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-PEFE!Every awakens, finding herself in bed, surprisingly unhungover, and with Cytosol dozing next to her-
PEFE!Every: ...Huh?
-she nudges the Solosis awake-
Cytosol: <What's going on?>
PEFE!Every: What happened yesterday?
Cytosol: <Well, you got drunk, blew your cover, committed an unbelievable act of espionage entirely by accident, and fell asleep.>
PEFE!Every: Wait, what about that woman?
Cytosol: <Woman?>
PEFE!Every: There was...
-she cuts off, suddenly feeling like maybe that was just an odd dream she had. Last night was rather blurry, after all-
Cytosol: <Also, I believe you owe someone a shopping trip.>
PEFE!Every: Um.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Lanakila Center
-Remember yesterday when Kaito said they were going to take a nap and then didn't?-
Kaito: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
-Yeah, they're making up for that now.-
-Frank is hit with a multitude of Tail Slaps, downing him.-
Phoenix: Gah. Larry, I can always rely on you.
Lawrence: <Hey. I'm just gonna...>
-Lawrence uses Thrash, a blur of limbs flailing towards the Cincinno.-
Aspertia City Gym
The series of strikes was much more powerful than both Cheren and Cinccino anticipated, the latter actually being forced to stay down.
Cheren nodded, somewhat satisfied. He recalled the Normal type before sending out another.
Watchog landed in front of him, glaring at Lawrence with their species’ trademark glare.
[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]The short guy with red markings scoffs, flipping his scruffing hair flippantly.
Levi: The one and only~ So, you Forte guy! You're the one that needs Xer's hel-
Levi looks around and noticed that Forte is gone.
Levi: H-hey! Where did the other guy go?
Forte gets an obnoxious buzzing on his communication device of choice. With a message that reads as follows
- levi

Po Town
Colton's phone buzzed with the message from Phoenix. He read it...
and almost reflexively compressed his phone from the sides with one hand, his jealousy almost begetting a facepalm. But he calmed himself enough to not be so petty.
He merely typed up about 13 deep breath-counts worth of angry spiels before deleting it all, unsure of what he had ever typed when he was done.
Aspertia City
"I can tell from the way you carry yourself that you either hope to become incredibly powerful, or you already are incredibly powerful," Cheren deduced, adjusting his glasses while letting the Pokeball remain in his palm.
"As such, I shall battle you like I would someone who is incredibly powerful," he reasoned, replacing the Pokeball with a different Pokeball before throwing it.
Cinccino landed a short distance in front of him, ready for battle.
Gym Leader Cheren sent out Cinccino!
