Rod: I... I just explained what Ultra Beasts were!
-Facepalms-
Aaaaargh.
Laura: Ultra Beasts are typically released in their home dimension! Buuuut it's difficult but fun to train them yourselves! :3
Gudrunn: -shrugs and points- They're in the other room.
Contact Me!-"Ramona is standing at the bus station, talking to her mom on the phone"-
Ramona: Yep, I'm all good here. Yep. Oh, um, hold on, let me check -walks over to the bus sign and checks the schedule- the last one's at 8:45. Okay, I love you to mommy, see you when I get home. -Ramona hangs up and puts her hands on her hips- Now where would a professor live?
Victor: <Oh, gee I don't know, probably in a LAB>
Lucy, filming with Ramonas camera: <...and here we see ...the wild jerk>
Female voice: Excuse me, are by chance Ramona?
-"Ramona turns to meat a blonde haired young woman, wearing a lab coat. She's carrying a container."-
Ramona, upbeat and perky: Yep <3... who are you?
-"The blonde women extends her hand and gives Ramona a warm smile."-
Bianca: My name's Bianca, I'm professor Junipers assistant... gosh those are big.
Ramona, taking Biancas hand: Well it's nice to meet you Bianca, I'm Ramona... what are big?
Bianca, a little embarrassed: Oh, your glasses. They're all round and big. They're really cute.
Ramona, happy blush: Aw, thank you. A lot of people tell me they look to dorky. Honestly, I think yours are way cuter.
Bianca: Oh no, mine are so out of season. Also, the color, bleh, I honestly just got them because they were on sail.
Ramona: Aw, don't be like that. I think the look charming, mine are just the prescription kind mom got me.
Bianca: Your mom has good taste, I wish she had picked out mine.
Ramona: Aw, thank you.
Bianca: Thank you.
Victor: <oh my god shut up>
Lucy, filming: <She has... a very warm,,, aura>
Bianca, remembering what she was doing: Oh, that's right. -Bianca pulls the case out from under her arm, and presents it to Ramona- Professor Juniper said she wouldn't be able to meat you for awhile, but asked me to give you something for your troubles.
-"Bianca opens the case revealing three pokeballs. Ramona stares at them in confusion ."-
Ramona: What are these for?
Bianca: Pokémon. Professor Juniper wanted to give you one, for delivering the letter.
Ramona: But... I already have two.
Bianca: Sorry, Juniper wouldn't take no for an answer.
Ramona, looking at the balls: Well, alright.
Victor: <Great, just what we need, another weakling.>
Lucy: <Glad... you're accepting... you role>
Victor, angry: <WHAT?>
-"Ramona studies the balls for a few minutes, then grabs one at random"-
Ramona: This one.
-"Ramona tosses the ball up and out pops a little Oshawott."-
Bianca, surprised: Oh, wait, I'm sorry, she wasn't suppose to be in ther-
-"Before Bianca can finish what she was saying, Ramona rushes to the Oshawott and glomps her"-
Ramona, cuddling the water starter: Oh, My, Gwash SHE'S ADORABLE.
Oshawott: <AHHH, HUMAN>
Let's all have funHyul Castle Depths
-Oh hey, there's where the Gaster skull ended up, it was slowly bopping it's head(?) against the barrier-
Eh, sure it'll either be a powerup for you or something that'll smash you before going for us. Nothing we can't handle.
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.Jester smiled, and tapped the barrier. The barrier popped and revealed its contents.
It was a large device, several tubes of liquid hooked up to a central tank, large vault structures were also attached to the device and seemed to gleam.
Jester leaned down and grinned, he then laughed, and laughed, and laughed and laughed and laughed.
The entire room became covered in his mouths, laughing endlessly. He even caught the blade Gunny was attempting to gore him with, "Nice sword. Not interested."
Jester looked over to Pentigan and smirked, "Not about to smash me or give me a power boost. Just something I missed."
In the center was a singular glass like pod, inside was a individual, judging by the ears and skintone, Hyulian. "Hello Tassa... good to see you after so long. Shame I never got to finish the job..."
Jester's grin became wider than his entire face, "Oh thank you all from the bottom of the void that is my heart for getting me the last Hyulian... Such a wonderful gift. The reward will be bountiful for this..."
-Fuzz stands in the corner, observing the casino guests-
-the Blaziken may stand out, owing to his fluffy black-colored plummage-
-then again, there are several Blaziken stationed throughout the casino with distinctive appearances-
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Hyul Basement
He stared at what he had allowed Jester to do. He processed the fact that he was responsible for this. He dispelled his Night Slash Claws and let everything go slack.
Colton facepalmed.
The scant few bricks that composed the floor they had just fallen from didn’t fall. Rather, they were blown upwards to shatter into the ceiling. The sonic forces imparted by his exasperation would probably cause some damage to what contained Tassa, and the air differences may have caused it to go flying a distance out of Jester’s reach.
Dust on the castle and the rubble on the floor surrounding them would be sent flying in all directions, mostly away from Colt and into Jester’s “mouths”. Barely tangible tremors diluted from the distance shook the entirety of the island.
“We did this!” Colt realized. “We let him get what he wanted! How could I have been so STUPID?!!?”
Night Slash Claws and Dark Pulse Orbitars bared, he caught himself. What can we do to him we haven’t done already? He considered, dispelling the Orbitars but not the Claws.

[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]Dolabella: <I got it. Shampoo that leaves a lingering sticky feeling in your fur.>
Channah: -is sitting on the docks with her legs hanging off the edge, looking at the water- ...When someone rips your earbuds out.
Dolabella: <Peoplemons claiming to be shook.>
Channah: That's worse than having your privacy invaded?
Dolabella: <You can put the earbuds back in. You can't put the word back in their mouth.>
Channah: Ehh. I'll take it, I guess...
Nino: -is exercising her anima magic, chanting in a foreign language and calling down the occasional lightning strike on the scenery-
Legault: -lazing about, watching her sleepily <(I'm not sure if I'm glad that we might be missing the war back home. It's peaceful here, though...)>

Megan: ...I was gonna ask if you could take us to Silas, but okay!
Thespi: <Things never go that way though, even with prophecies and stuff!>
Megan: ...I guess?
-to Silas's team- Hi, guys! Anything new?
No mind to think. No will to break.Hacks waved to Megan, "We've asked about, a few people have shown up with Lucario around the Pokemon centers. Kalos doesn't have a big population but there are enough mountain regions for entire groups of Lucario to appear in."
Amber sighed, <We even asked about scarves, apparently green is in this season. Even though red and orange are far superior colours.>
Snakeye shrugged, <Frankly we've jus' been lookin' out fer him. He looks a lot like Hacks to our eyes...>
Megan: Drat. Any particular pattern to the search, or is it at a loss?
Pollen: <Hm. I don't know if you know this already, or if it'll work, but...>
-and she attempts to Aurically stare at the bonds between them, Hacks in particular, to see if there's any particularly strong tie leading elsewhere-
No mind to think. No will to break.Hacks blinks, "Uhhh? What is Pollen doing?"
Surprisingly there is a faint link heading for the center of Kalos itself, Lumiose.
Pollen: <Hmm. Are you particularly close to anyone in> -points in the direction of the link- <that direction? Like super-duper close.>
Megan: It's...this thing she does, related to what I think is Aura Sight, where she looks at the bonds between people.
...do I look like a flower to you, or is that a her thing? I read that Cutiefly and Ribombee sometimes...match flowers to people, and she says she sees us as like glowy flowers when she does this.
Tripod: -Light Screen not-quite GPS display, with a broad line marked in the direction Pollen's pointing, which goes right over Lumiose-

No mind to think. No will to break.AU!Shaun: "I dunno. A locket or ring or something? A pocketwatch? I really don't know you that well."
Shaun: "Colton, we didn't let him do anything. We have him right where we needed him."
-He turns to Jester.-
Shaun: "No one else is going to die."
Tsunami: <Your only reward will be death!>
"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch""Flower? No your aura doesn't look like a flower. It's like... well like you are constantly being licked by flames, your soul burning bright. That's how most Lucario see it apparently."
Hacks scratched his head, "In Lumiose? Why would he be there? At least he's alive and in this dimension."
<Alternatively it could be the Grant Parents,> Tae suggested.
Hacks sighed and tugged at his scarf, "Entirely possible."
-"Bianca and Ramona are walking into the town. Ramona is carrying her new Oshawott, lovingly named Aya."-
Ramona: I see, I didn't realize that Aya was afraid of humans.
Aya, crying: <I wan to go back in my ball>
Bianca: Yeah, she's had it rough... are you sure you want to take care of her?
Ramona, happily nodding: Mmhumm, don't worry, me and Aya will be the best of friends. -Holds Aya up and looks into her eyes- Right Aya?
-"Aya stares into Ramonas blue, slightly pink, eyes and feels her self relaxing a bit."-
Aya: <O-okay>
Bianca: Well alright then. So are you going to take on the gym in Aspertia?
Ramona, nervously: G-gym?
Bianca: Yep, you're a trainer right?
Ramona: Well I, um -Ramona studies the Oshawott in her arms, trying to decide what to say-
Victor: <Lets not bother, she'd probably just screw up like last time.>
Lucy, still filming: <...we lost ...because of you>
Ramona: Okay.
Victor: <What?>
Ramona, eyes sparkling, and with big smile: Let's do it.

Locke: ...Yeah?
AU!Umbra: Your mother and I have been through a lot in this timeline. Yet we're doing OK. We have a home here in Celadon, we have our Pokemon, we're thinking of starting a family that may or may not include you...
AU!Lina: Basically, after what we toughed through... If you're really a son of ours, you'll do fine in whatever you're seeking. Good luck.
Locke: ...
-smiles a bit-
Thanks guys.
-The two groups go their separate ways-
AU!Lina: -to AU!Umbra, half-jokingly- Told you not to rush kids. One came right to us!
AU!Umbra: But he looks like he'll turn out so well!
Molph: <TESSA!>
-He floats toward the container rapidly, but stops himself, looking rapidly between the Jester and his captive-
-The rest of the party considers their options-
-Except Anna, who discreetly creeps toward the stasis machine with a bag of supplies-

Contact Me!Pollen: <That's weird. You're weird. Why would we be fire? That sounds horrible and sad.>
Megan: Pollen no.
Thespi: <Our souls burn bright! Like the sun—>
Pollen: <Why would we be burning at all?>
Thespi: <—the world basks in our radiance, with which we warm—>
Pollen: <We're alive! Like flowers!>
Thespi: <—each other, and sometimes—>
Pollen: <And not fire!>
Thespi: <—we feel like spreading a lot of that warmth, very quickly—>
Megan: Okay that's enough
-she recalls both of them-
-...-
-and sends Pollen back out-
-Pollen hmphs-
-Megan frowns at her-
...Well, at least we have a lead, maybe? Wanna follow it and see where it takes us?

No mind to think. No will to break."AAAAAAAAAAAAA- oof"
Daydre lets Friendo out and has them use String Shot to slow their fall right before they hit the ground.
"Yeah, I thought we all knew he wanted this? But there was no other way to go about it than to continue..."
Daydre waves goodbye to Kai.
Azure: <Weird.>
off the shits-navigating the canyon hasn't been easy in the dark, but the three pigtail girls haven't found much in the way of resistance-
-few wild Pokémon showed up, and the trainers that normally would have been hanging out here are gone-
Noelle: Why is this place such a maze?
Lily(?): I think it was used for trials or something.
Fortis: -shivers- I feel like something's watching us...
Lily(?): There's no one here, shorty. You're being paranoid.
-Fortis appears to take offense at the term "shorty", but is interrupted by a voice-
???: <Interlopers.>
-Noelle gasps-
Noelle: What if it's the beast that killed the sun?
???: <A bold claim. It was you humans that ruined the sun and killed our world.>
Fortis: Oh my gosh!
-a large shape drops to the floor in front of the three, its scales clanging-
Totem Kommo-o: <I am the lord of this canyon, and I will never allow another human to step through!>
Hacks nodded, before turning to Pollen, "Do keep in mind your telling a species that is known for aura sense that they are weird for not seeing it how you see it," he said with a slight glare.
Snakeye sighed, <Y'all ready? Get the lead out we got a trainer ta save!>
Specifically on the fact that Cynthia refuses to take her armor off.
Morgan sighs. "Cynthia, please. Be reasonable."
Cynthia: "Heroism trumps reasonable!"
Morgan facepalms. "Didn't you have an ongoing argument with Father over this?"
Cynthia: "That was about on the battlefield! This is not, so!"
Morgan: "Exactly! So you don't need armor!"
Cynthia: "But it makes me look heroic!"
Vi: "I, uh, don't think you're getting through to her."
The two just look at each other.
Vi looks at her watch. "Well, I should be getting back to the airship. I'll... leave you two here for a while, unless you want to come back immediately?"
Cynthia: "I wanna stay!"
Morgan: "I'll stay to make sure she doesn't get herself in trouble."
Vi: "Gotcha. Zurvan."
Her Metagross floats in from Arceus knows where.
Metagross Zurvan: ~Back to the airship, then?~
Vi: "Yep."
Morgan: "... I still think -"
Cynthia: "Not happening!"
All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.-Fortis, Noelle, and Lily(?) send out Grayson, Yuna, and a Crabominable respectively-
Fortis: Fly!
-Grayson takes off toward the ceiling-
Noelle: Use—
-before Noelle can finish, Yuna is struck in the stomach by a poison fist-
Yuna: <Ah!>
-she collapses to the floor immediately-
Grayson: <Holy one shot!>
Noelle: Yunie!
Lily(?): Oh, are you a Last Legend fan too?
Noelle: Yeah, but um, not really the time, is it?
Lily(?): You're right. Hey Snow! Let 'im have it!
-the Crabominable responds-
Snow(?): <You didn't even have to ask.>
-he raises a fist into the air-
Snow(?): <Hey ugly! Get a load of this!>
-and slams it down right upon the Kommo-o, who hardly budges-
Lily(?): Crap. That barely made him flinch.
Grayson: <Here goes nothing!>
-he divebombs the Kommo-o from above, pushing him back a bit-
Kommo-o: <You think you can stand against me, monsters? Feel the power of the ancients!>
-his aura flares to life even brighter, and it causes his scales to resonate against each other, filling the small cave with a terrible sound-
-all three girls cover their ears as the sound echoes across the cavern-
Grayson: <Holy overpowered attack!> -falls to the ground-
Snow(?): <Not... cool.> -collapses-
-"Ramona and Bianca walk in and spot a dark haired man sitting at a desk, a large stack of papers next to him."-
Bianca, sing song voice: Cheren, I've brought somebody to meat you <3
Cheren, annoyed: What is it Bianca, can't you see that I'm... -Cheren looks up and sees the two girls, Bianca, and a pink haired one he doesn't recognize- Oh, um sorry. Are you a challenger?
Ramona, perky: Yep, my name's Ramona. Gym badge please <3
Cheren: My name's Cheren and, as I'm sure Bianca has told you, I'm the gym leader here. But, at the moment I'm very busy with paper work so-
-"The two girls give Cheren very big puppy dog eyes."-
Ramona and Bianca: Please <3
Cheren: ...-groan- fine, I needed a break anyways.
Ramona, happy: It worked.
Bianca: I told you he was weak to it.
Cheren, shocked and mad: You planed that?
-"A little while later, Ramona and Cheren are facing each other on the battle ground."-
Cheren, professionally: I Cheren, leader of the Aspertia gym, accept your challenge. Let's go, Patrat!
-Cheren chose Patrat as his first Pokémon-
Ramona: Okay, let's kick it off Victor!
-Ramona threw out Victor-
Victor: <humph, a patrat, who do you think you are putting me up against such a weakling?>
Patrat: <Losers really shouldn't talk.>
