From Daydre

i was hoping she wouldnt actually do anything that bad with it but i guess im A Fool
pain peko
From: Shaun
Okay, so I don't need to yell at Daydre. And that explains why the Stormchaser looks like a battleground.
....
While I'm here I may as well get on that.
Keep me posted.
Oh, does anyone know where the other three artifacts are? That's what she's looking for. I imagine Maggie has one.

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"
Oh, it's fine. That... happens sometimes.
Uh, but anyway, I think she was at the Stormchaser, but I dunno for sure. The strategy is probably to find some way to get that thing away from her.
From: Maggie
Se then sees Shaun's text and starts composing another.
Black Chalice is what I have. I've been... kinda unsure what to do with it, so all my Dark-types are at the HQ or off doing other things where I'm not.
Other two are Orange Locket and Pink Diadem. Former's most likely to be handled in some way.
From: Maggie
Yarne: <...What is that anyway?>
Maggie: "PokeGear. Lets you do things like send... well essentially letters to someone in a few seconds."

Solace: <That went surprisingly well.>
-as the psychic assault ceases, Ever sits down, resting his head on his knees for a long time. Solace gently places her head on his-
Breeze: <...Hey. You good?>
Ever: ...Aaaaaagh.
-he winces-
At least this is a pretty empty street.
Access: <Dang it.>
-Ever takes Cuseinga's ball back, taking deep breaths as he slowly unfolds himself. A slight movement of his head is answered with a spike of pain that suggests a rapidly developing headache-
...Yay.
-keeping his head as still as possible, he gets to his feet, trudging over to the area where the battle started-
...Okay, so Phase 2 was a bust.
Ever: ...Alright. Access. Go give that phone back to whomever you got it from.
-Access sighs, and skitters away to do that-
-Ever, meanwhile, begins sifting through the snow, with Breeze's help, until he pulls out the shattered remains of his phone-
Guess it's time for Plan B of Phase 2.
~That's a silly naming convention.~
Did I ask? Get out of my head, you're making my headache worse.

-Most of the mons are hit by the attacks and keep fighting-
-Egghead, on the other hand, goes down, and Zelrech is free to charge at Gudrunn... only for her to fire a Obscura arrow straight at his head-
Robin: -to his female counterpart- Er, can we talk? I'm sure you have... A lot of questions.
Nico: Hoo boy.
From: Nico
Where'd you find the sword?
Izana: -to Tagg- <You should go for my new-age teachings instead! They're f u n.>
Azama: <Don't trust him as far as you can throw him. Which is probably pretty far in his current form.>

Channah: -to Tagg- That does suck. I went to school on and off, wish I hadn't. Was that, like, basically mute kid who people just tolerated because I was best friends with a popular one, heh.
Gage: <New Age teachings? Hmm. When I was a baby my trainer gave me several books on the flawed ideology behind public school systems. Fascinating stuff.>

-Vierr twitches as he hears Polly's voice in his head.-
Vierr: (This is Ken. He's my mentor. An actual physical real tangible mentor, rather than a spirit in my head.)
-He shakes his head slightly and refocuses on Ken.-
Vierr: Oh, sure.
-He slips the Z-Ring off, and hands it to Ken.-

-As we get inside the cable car, where signs warning of spotting mysterious figures on the cable car path can be seen-
Didn't have any friends, what I did have were closer to acquaintances, really. Don't think I really had much in the way of friends until the PEFE was formed.

Ken: -Takes the Z-Ring and examines it with Aura Sense- Interesting... it seems to have an Aura all its own... I'm not sure what it means, though.

-"Anubis spits the Rattata out"-
Anny, happily yipping: <Hello sir>
-"Homer rushes over to his Umbreon, and wraps it in a hug"-
Anubis, whimpers: <ow>
-"Homer notices Anubis's pained whimpers and let's go"-
Homer: Sorry bud.
Wild cubone: <hello>
Anubis, to the small ground type: <hello. Now who might you be little one?>
Wild cubone, proudly: <I'm the ruler of this land>
Anubis, bowing: <well, it's a pleasure to meet you, your majesty. -in his head- it hurts to bow, but at least the kids happy>
Wild cubone, giggling like a child that just got complemented: <you may rise>
Homer: All right, two down, one to go. Now... where the hell do we look for Morrigan?

Vierr: (And I'd love that, but this guy showed up first anyway.)
-Refocus.-
Vierr: Yeah, that's what's interesting about it. My theory is that its own Aura is how it lets a Pokemon and Trainer connect their Auras to reach such heights of power. What's even more interesting is, it's got the same sort of energy signature as Fallers, so it certainly doesn't originate from this world.

They look like... tengu.
Auras don't feel like the Demon Mutagen mutants though... More like a ghost type, or similar type of spiritual being...
-To Kaden-
Maybe? Don't think you share the same origins though.
-To Channah-
As for the rest of my school experiences... Well back in my cryptid days I'd just show up in a town around when tests needed to be done and did them.

-Ever is making use of his extended warranty to acquire a new phone-
Porygon: <Don't worry, I managed to recover your contacts. You might lose a couple texts, and there was a video you were taking that looks like it got eaten.>
Fuck.
Ever: You can't reconstruct it?
Porygon: <Imagine putting together a jigsaw puzzle, but all the pieces are the same color, there are no corner pieces, and each one gives you a static shock when you touch it.>
Ever: I'd rather not.
Porygon: <How do you understand me, anyway?>
Ever: It's the darndest thing. I got hit on the head in the same accident that broke my phone; now I can understand Pokemon.
Porygon: <...Okay.>
Ever: Mhm.
Plan C of Phase 2. Today is turning out great.
Ever: Say, would you consider yourself a nerd?
-the Porygon fixes Ever with an unamused glare-
Porygon: <I work in a shop repairing phones. Draw your own conclusions.>
-Ever smiles-
Ever: Well then, dear nerd, how would you like to be part of your very own epic tale?
Porygon: <Uh?>
Ever: If I provide you with a memory, could you create video of it?
Porygon: <...I mean, supposedly? A psychic conduit could probably give me a good reference.>
Ever: Excellent.
Porygon: <...Of what, may I ask?>
Ever: Of the truth!
Porygon: <...While you do admittedly give off intense brain damage vibes, I don't get the sense you learned how to understand Pokemon the same time as you broke your phone.>
-Ever just smiles, his eyes opening very wide-
Porygon: <...Who are you?>
Ever: Someone who, rendered assistance, could turn out to make one's life very interesting indeed.
Porygon: <Look, guy—>
Ever: No need to namecall.
Porygon: <I've been working here since I was coded. I haven't gotten an upgrade to a newer model since...what, 2012? And I work in a phone store. Seriously, the merchandise here gets a better run of it than I do.>
-Ever just tilts his head-
Porygon: <If you're giving me a chance to be a part of something more interesting than sitting in this shop and watching pieces of technology that probably have more storage space than I do...I am absolutely in.>
-Ever smiles-

-Gudrunn blocks Balmung with the Purple Sword and attempts to constrict Zelrich with Obscura tentacles. Meanwhile, Solonn closes in with a Crunch that could easily remove a body part-
Robin: Great! I can help more... Anyway, you know how you got here?
From: Nico
OK, don't panic... If she just has the Sword, it's dangerous but can be dealt with. If she had gotten the Chalice we'd be fucked, but that's safe in the X-Naut Base now.
Nico: Maggie, could I ask you to put that thing in the super special secret containment unit?

-"Homer is studying books on ghost types in order to get a lead on where Morrigan might have ended up, while Anubis sits with the wild cubone, who is happily reading manga"-
Homer: Misdreavus, due to there mystic qaulitys, are drawn to ancient ruins, and other areas that have cryptic legends associated with them.
Wild cubone: <Cool, so that spiky haired guy can just scream, and he'll power up?>
Anubis, a little worried: <Um, yeah... Maybe dragon ball isn't age appropriate for you.>
Wild cubone: <look look -stands on a nearby table-, and this, is to go even farther beyond AAAAAHHHH>
Homer, who can only understand cubones yelling as high pitched squeeing: Hey would you two knock it off?
-"Homer sees a green and yellow ball next to him, and tosses it to the wild cubone"-
Homer, before he throws the green and yellow ball: Here, let's play the quite game, who ever catches the ball has to be quite for the next hour.
Wild cubone: <ooh, ooh, throw to me, thow it to->
-"The nest ball taps the wild cubone on the head, and pulls it in. Homer and Anubis look on with shock as the ball shakes a few times, and then makes a loud click"-
Nearby teacher: Hey, where'd my nest ball go?
Homer: 0.0 ...shit

Vierr: (Hey, we made a deal, I help him, he helps me. Let me have this. Shhhhh.)
-Refocus.-
Vierr: Glad to hear. If I didn't see myself needing it up against Team Iron and Mobius, I'd let you have the thing for yourself to study.
From: Echo
I've learned what I can about the info salvaged from the Iron base before its destruction. In particular, we now know the leadership of the organization — an individual named Aulstyne as the head of security and Acoustics, Previa as the head of Cryptotech, Orlandeau as the head of biology, and Raines as the head of Engineering. As well, the main director is one Cidolphus Bunansa, but there was little information provided about him.
As well, we have information about the capture of Tapu Bulu, confirming the theories Mason provided with the evidence he collected from the scene. They developed an anesthetic from carefully distilled Alolan Meadow Flower nectar, disguised it as incense, and detonated it in Tapu Bulu's presence to put them to sleep. They cleaned up after themselves as best as they could, but as Mason discovered, they weren't perfect in covering their tracks.
It should be noted, Best Berry did indeed assist with the development of this powerful anesthetic. Upon Kai's return, I can provide the necessary evidence to relay to Chief Anabel and Detective Looker. If this information becomes public knowledge, it could severely cripple both organizations' operations across the world, as well as hamper those of the Mobius Society by association, but I will only do so if the J-Team as a whole agrees on it. Making the J-Team's ordeals a public concern is no laughing matter, and I understand there are plenty who may prefer to stick to privacy.
In the meantime, I will be working to repair the damage done to the Stormchaser by Gudrunn's recent attacks, so that Tagg may better enjoy his vacation like he has been.
