ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

the shoppe has been stopped

-The remaining Bronze Birds finish gathering what they can and start moving out.-

Kattraea: <Of course! Until next time...>

-She salutes. Her cape billows once again.-

Kattraea: <Keep your eyes on the skies!>

-And she leaves through a convenient hole in the ceiling, leaving dust swirling around in her wake.-

Unnamed Island

-Gabe appears here-

-Somehow-

Contact Me!

Unnamed Island

Daydre flies in on a Togetic and lands significantly less gracefully.

"Uh, sorry about the long distance. You're definitely getting treated or something later... What do you want?"

The Punisher:    <The souls of the innocent>   

"I ca-" Before Daydre can finish The Punisher returns himself.

"... Well."

off the shits

Admin D is using his spotting scope to look out ovet to where the J-Team is.

"...hrmmmm. Go hide Pria, in case someone spots you. Make sure Jovi doesn't move until I tell her."

Pria goes to leave.

"Oh yeah and take as much as you can hold."

An evil smirk stretches across the Whimsicott's face as she gleefully skips towards the crew's quarters.

Admin D takes a swig from a flask and puts a bandana over his face.

"Game face."

GIVE ME YOUR FACE

A socially awkward usually-Lurantis and a punchy usually-delta-Lurantis have shown up.

Along with their ride, the icefoxes.

Masako flops. <How do you do that...>

Tamamo: "♡"

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

-A man clad in gray astride a Staraptor lands on the beach.-

Shaun: "Yo."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Unnamed Island

-Ludmilla waves to Jacob, then to Brie, then stops to stare at Ever for a second.-

Deziree: Hey, Jacob. Well, unless you want to get your heavy hitters blasted with good ol' explosive freedom, I suggest you don't try going in through the front door right now. They slapped some reactive armor on it, and it's live.

Twitch: But I've got an idea!

Deziree: Oh, yeah, this is Twitch, and that's Vinegar. They're my employees.

-Twitch climbs on top of the hill over the door and pulls out some satchels. She digs a little before stuffing them in.-

Twitch: A door is only as strong as the wall around it!

Vinegar: We're all gonna want to back up for this.

-After possibly offering Megan a teleport ride off-screen-

Blitz: "I was going to offer to ghost through a wall and find the controls. But yeah, taking the 'hinges' off is probably faster if we don't want to wait to surprise them"

-Nothing about Dezi or her employees implies stealth is the goal today, so he back up and gets ready to plug his ear-

Unnamed Island

-The shadows...-

-Hold on-

-The exterior of the island is pretty well-lit during the day time and Pent doesn't want to blind-shadowport into the middle of an enemy base-

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

-Lewis has also come along, having heard that Megan was going and decided to help-

Arkady: <Ahh, heat.>

Lewis: A beach umbrella? Afraid I don't have one.

Quoth the Murkrow: <Scraw.>

There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

-Ace stretches out his wings, a shadow appearing-

Shaun: "That should do it."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Megan: Goodbye!

Thespi: -somehow starrier-eyed at the exit, then shakes herself- <Um... May the winds favor you! Arceusspeed! So cool...>

Vee: <Good luck, kid!>

-the building groans ominously-

Megan: ...let's get out of here.

Vee: <Yep.>

Thespi: <Expenditous Retreat! Right now.>

-and they leave-

-Megan is here, with Lewis-

Megan: Thanks for the ride, Mew...

Megan: -to Deziree- Um, my team has a watery laser thing that I'm pretty sure can cut through rock, at least...

Pippy, Vee: -perk up-

Pollen: -stares at the Sceptile(?), in horror- <It's here...>

Vee: -waves to Brie-

No mind to think. No will to break.

Blitz: "Let's start with Agility!"

Mei: <I'll make this quick!>

-The Sneasel pauses and focuses, her eyes then snap open as she uses her increased speed to jump to the side, avoiding one burst of fairy light and the worst of the second-

Blitz: "Heh, TMs? Good, this would be boring if you didn't know any non-psychic moves"

Unnamed Island

Gabe: So this is gonna blow in a sec?

-He plops an umbrella down and steps way back-

Unnamed Island

-After trying to figure out some means of transportation, Mason and Rose stumble into view.-

Rose: What even—

Mason: Let's not ask that question. So, this is a stealth mission, right? Please tell me there's stealth involved.

Unnamed Island

-The shadows quiver-

-Pent arrives. He's looking pale and ragged as always, he's already drawn his blade-

Alright, let's do this. Save the Tapu, wreck the place, destroy a Team.

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Not too far off a blue jet lands in the water, out of it steps a man wearing a mask and a blue coat◊. He stretches as he's followed by a Lucario in a silver scarf and what looks to be some sort of mechanical device.◊

"We ready Bishop?" "Online systems are operational Captain, let's hope this idea of yours works," "If not. We at least have something with more storage space if needed."

Silas and his followers walk up to the team, Silas takes not of the explosives, "Seems I'm a bit late..." ~We would have been there sooner if-~ "If takeoff wasn't delayed. I know."

Silas waves hello to the group and has his pDroid in hand, it looks sleeker and slimmer, "So what's the plan? Charge in? Cause hell?"

The robot slumps over as a Blue tinted Porygon pokes out, "This may turn out to be a bad idea Captain."

Soon landing is a figure on a Metagross, "Thank you Rex," <REX LIVES FOR DESTRUCTION> "I have no idea what you just said."

He steps off and is wearing what appears to be some sort of combat outfit, "Hello. James Smith, I recie-" he instantly recognizes at least one or two people.

"Oh my god you guys?"

Silas looks at Shaun, then Blitz, then Megan (Cause those are the people he recognizes) and then back to Jimmy, "Anyone know this guy?"

-Brie waves back to Vee, smiling, and then notices Mason-

Brie: Hey! And, uh, if the explosives weren't a tipoff...probably not.

-the Sceptile(?), meanwhile, glances at Pollen, and smiles-

-somehow-

-it's clearly a friendly smile, but...how???-

...Huh. Tagg's not here. Guess he wanted a break. Good thinking, really.

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Unnamed Island

-Deziree is about to address all of the questions coming her way when Twitch runs past her.-

Twitch: Fire in the hole!

-Deziree immediately hits the ground.-

*Beepbeepbeep!*

*SHKA-BOOOM!*

-The entire area around the door erupts into fire and dirt. The door then falls forward... right onto the reactive armor.-

*BA-BA-BA-BA-BOOOOOOM!*

-Each of the sections of armor explode in sequence, sending the door flipping and flying through the air like a massive coin. It goes off into the forest.-

Deziree: More warning would have been nice!

-Twitch, meanwhile, is laughing her ass off.-

Twitch: Did you see it flip?! Holy crap that was WAY better than I had hoped!

Team Iron Auxiliary Base

Aulstyne: Aw, shit.

Orlandeau: Alright, Cid, now's the time.

-Radio static is all Orlandeau gets as a response.-

Orlandeau: Cid?

Radio: *SHHHHHHHHHK* nde *SHHHHHHHHHHHK* ck! *SHHHHHK* peat *SHHHHHHHK* airshi *SHHHHHHHHHHHHHK*

-Aulstyne and Orlandeau look at each other.-

Alolan Seas, The Red Wings

-The Team Iron crew rallies as the airship launches boarding spikes, pinning the ship and allowing whoever these sky pirates are to slide down on hooks attached to harnesses.-

Cid: Get them off of my ship! Previa, get out here and blast that ship out of the sky!

Previa: I can't guarantee results at such an early stage of development!

Cid: Well either we succeed and we're in the clear, or we fail and we're exactly where we were anyway! Get that storm generator online now!

Blitz: -To Megan- "No problem, my Natu is pretty good at teleporting by now"

-At the arrival of Jimmy and Silias- "Oh, hey, weren't you that Best Berry security guy? Sorry about trashing the place"

-Ducks for cover and claps his hands over his ears as the demolitionist sets her plan in motion-

"...Wow, you were kidding about that reactive armor stuff"

Glass Bones and Paper Skin

Armbeetle: {Is that so? Very well then!}

-He flexes.-

Armbeetle: {Hope you're ready for an old-fashioned Armbeetle pummeling!}

-And he swings for a Hammer Arm.-

Unnamed Island

-Mason swears under his breath as things explode.-

Rose: So much for stealth, huh?

"Everything goin accordin to plan, or do your asses need to be saved this early?" A masked Admin D piped up behind Aulstyne and Orlandeau.

GIVE ME YOUR FACE

Pollen: -shivers- <Probably fine, probably fine, no one else's–why is no one else freaking out aaaaa>

Megan: -to Silas- I have no idea who– ^_^;

-and then the door explodes off into the sunset-

-Vee yanks Megan and the members of her team that are out to the ground with a contracting Protect bubble, until the noise fades-

Vee: <Merciful Mesprit, is it always like this?> @_@

Megan: aaaaaaaaaaa @_@

No mind to think. No will to break.

-Shaun nearly drops Ace's ball, as the hawk was being recalled during the explosion.-

Shaun: "Sweet."

-He selects two of the four balls on his waist and holds them in each hand.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Silas watches the door go flying past as his team ducks to the ground, they pull him down as well.

Jimmy is already to the floor, service pistol drawn, "Okay what the hell!"

<REX DID NOT LIKE THAT DESTRUCTION!>

Silas groans, "Gah! Can you quiet your Metagross down?"

<REX'S VOLUME IS APPROPRIATE FOR A WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION!>

"Buddy you're a Metagross, not a weapon. Inside voice."

Jimmy doesn't bother to question it as he stands up and draws his service pistol, "Okay. So next move?"

Omega is there, "PROPER USE OF WEAPONRY NOW COULD PREVENT INVADERS BY CREATING A CHOKEPOINT. ALLOWING US TO PROPERLY MOBILIZE AND OVERTAKE THEM."
