ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Snowman: Ahhh, sound like a mid-immortal-life crisis is getting you down, Prime~

Snowman notices a Zoroark Purple.

Snowman: Oh~? It seems like we have a passerby. A passerby with a little bit a [problem], doncha think?

I'm having to learn to pay the price

Mew is abruptly distracted, on account of being tackled by two Pichu wearing Sharingan contact lenses.

Pichu G: <We found a goddess! >

Pichu S: <Take her to the boss! There's gotta be some kind of apocalypse we can trigger with her!>

They begin to... slowly... drag her off, one pulling each arm; Mew is a bit too busy wutting to notice the Zoroark.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

Silas sighed, ~W-w-when begin?~

That was as much as he was going to get, his head was killing him. <Trying to steal from a noble... we're gonna die.>

Lumiose Hotel

Herbert: <We'll be fine, George!>

Jay: "Mm... might not be for a while yet. We're gonna need to make a plan, see how we wanna get that Blaziken, what his weaknesses might be."

"Though, apparently her Delphox might be a problem. That's what this is for, though..."

She takes out the Aura Jammer and turns it on.

-Zoroark Purple blinks, stops, and looks at Snowman-

Zoroark Purple: <...I do but also I am concerned by the way you said [problem].>

Near: ~I'm certain it is perfectly fine.~

Shaun: "We-we didn't."

-Tsunami expels a Bubble which Beowulf flattens and holds in front of Tessa with Telekinesis.-

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Snowman turns to the Zoroark

Snowman: Oh, well, what are you doing here, schmuck?

I'm having to learn to pay the price

Hyul Wine Cellar

Phaz: ~...This is harder to see that I thought...~

~We didn't grow. By putting that scarf, you transformed into a Mon. ...Want a hug to feel better? I don't think you're not gonna need one...~

He looks really sorry...

What's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mold? Even at the center of fire, there is cold All that glitters ain't gold

-Zoroark Purple growls-

Zoroark Purple: <Don't call me a shmuck, thank you very much. I'm just having a bit of an issue with form adjustment, is all. It's none of your business.>

Near: ~I'd say it's a narrow margin of her business, personally.~

Zoroark Purple: <And I'd say you need to hush.>

Upon the jammer being turned on, Silas stumbles a bit, so that's what it feels like being under one of those. Especially as a mon that makes extensive use of aura.

<I guess the only thing left to do is to sleep then...>

Silas eyed herbert, grabbed a pillow, found a high spot, and leaped up out of Herbert's reach.

Lumiose Hotel

Herbert sees the Lucario and gives a sigh.

Jay: "Don't worry, Herbert. Soon you're gonna have someone else. Hopefully better than him."

Clavis HQ

-Andrew sighs as he stands.-

Andrew: To be frank, I still think all three of you stand to round out your edges a bit. Ren, you gotta be more careful with yourself. I heard from a little birdie about your escapades in Orre. Martin, you need to work on those social skills, and learn that perception can be just as important as substance. And Johann... breath. Just... breath.

-He taps his fingers on the cards in front of him.-

Andrew: On that note, though... The main family's the pillar. The anchor. If it starts to buckle, we're all gonna suffer. So I gotta put my vote to Martin.

-He holds up a yellow card.-

Andrew: But on the caveat that you don't do or say nothing that's gonna earn us a spot on any "Ten Most Hated Companies" lists, alright?

Hyul Castle Pit

-Pent breathed deeply and sat down on the floor-

Humanity lives and has grown strong, without the influence of the Jester in their works.

-What would be some proof... He took out his phone and just booted into a mapping app-

But like so many other civilizations... So many other kingdoms, the Hyul were lost along the way because of disaster. But there are remnants, even if it is only in story and the settlements of mons above us, the world remembers the Hyul.

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

-After Andrew has taken his seat, other heads stand and give their votes, citing the logic of better public image or more solid business management.-

-Several more still slide yellow cards forward. Some voting after deciding which would be best for the conglomerate. While wanting to be seen to agree with Eric more than actually thinking of the best for the conglomerate as a whole.-

-While a few other heads slide a red card forward. Some wanting a slightly weaker head to bolster their position, while other genuinely feel a better public image would be better for the conglomerate at this point. Günter frowns as several heads he had privately made deals with side a red card forwards until it was Günter's turn to vote.-

-Günter stands and looks at Johann silently before grunting with dissatisfaction before sliding his red card forward and simply stating.-

Günter: My choice is for Renard to inherit.

-Günter sticks back and silently stews at the fact that that down as Johann looks sad that his own father didn't vote for him.-

-After a string of yellow cards being slid forward, and another red card slid forward, it was Abraham's turn to vote.-

-Phoenix walks out, arms full of random prizes and shit.-

Phoenix: No, really, Larry, did I forget something?

Lawrence: <Hmmmm.... The gym! We haven't gone to the gym yet.

Phoenix: Oh, yeah! Totally forgot. Let's go.

-The gym is packed with spectators, as always. Elesa stands at the end of the walkway, staring at Phoenix-

Elesa: How shocking, another challenger dressed in regular clothes. Let's go.

Phoenix: Boo.

Hyul Pit

“How did I screw up?” Colt asked Beowulf as he approached Tassa to try to hug her. Lucario promptly materialized with a paw flaring Aura over his trainer’s ear, before realizing his force of habit and moving Colt aside to place the paw over Tassa’s ear.

<Now we can hold conversation,> Lucario reasoned.

Colt stayed at a distance. “Can you understand me?” He asked.

Mauville

Having escaped from Ann, Colt was now wandering around again.

He might be encountered.

Clavis HQ

When it was his turn, he had already decided.

“We are a business first and foremost,” he considered as he lifted up a hand without showing the back of his cards. “But PR is as important as anything else - [EA] and [Verizon] coming to mind,” he mused as he set his hand down.

He lifted it to reveal a red card. “I have faith in you, Renard.”

Laura: Neato!

Rod: Our mother owns a dimensional research company. Have you heard of Yggdrasil Corp.?

Jared: Great! If someone got you there could you get to your house?

-Molph just ghost hugs, sobbing too-

-Owen is waiting-

-So is Herc-

-Aphrodite and her Gorebyss look worriedly at the yellow cards-

-"Ramona wakes up in, her body wrapped in bandages, laying in a soft bed."-

-"She looks around a bit, then realizes that she isn't wearing her glasses."-

Ramona, having a hard time speaking: M-my glasses, w-where?

-"Suddenly Ramona feels a plastic object taping against her hand. She feels the item for a bit, then, realizing it's her glasses, sets them on her nose. In front of her is Lucy and Aya, while Victor sits on a nearby table."-

Lucy: <You're awake... I'm glad>

Aya: <H-how did you sleep?>

Victor: <...>

Ramona, looking around: You guys, w-where are... -She notices an object laying next to Victor.-

-"Still wobbly, Ramona attempts to stand up, and manages to get to the table with the help of her mons. Sitting next to Victor is a rather cute pink top and jeans, with a note that reads If you wake up, please meet us in the next three rooms over."-

-"Not sure of what to do Ramona changes from the hospital gown she was in, and into the new outfit, before making her way out the door."-

Ramona, being followed by her mons: I wonder where I am- huh?

-"Looking down Ramona sees a bunch of people, covered in paint, contorted into an odd sculpture."-

Lucy: <...oh right ...he's been ...working on this.>

Aya, creeped out: <humans are so weird.>

Victor: <...>

-"Ramona looks past the... odd, sight and notices Burgh standing with a paintbrush and canvas."-

Burgh: All right, Andy, maybe raise your left shoulder a bit higher. Marty, I'm gonna need you to step on Sabrina's face. Amanda, maybe lift your other leg over your head. Lain, could you -notices Ramona- Oh, you're awake. -To his models- Take five guys.

-"The group of people break off, leaving Ramona more confused then ever."-

Let's all have fun

Mauville

A Garchomp burrows out of the ground near Heracles.

Finn: <Hey big guy. You said you got the place picked out?>

Cerbeau: <Come on! How hard could it be to walk up and talk to someone?>

Leo: For me? VERY.

Cerbeau: <Come on, I'll help you out with this.>

And after saying that, he decides to start telekinetically nudging Leo in a random direction towards who-knows-who.

Alex: I dunno, probably. It's boring there, though. I'd much rather find Caleb.

Elesa: Zebstrika, use-

-Said Zebstrika is knocked out by an Earthquake before Elesa finishes her command.-

Elesa: Uh, Ampharos! Use Power Gem!

-Elesa sends out the mon. It conjures a few glowing stones in the air and slings them at Lawrence.-

Phoenix: Earth Power.

-The Ampharos goes down.-

Elesa: Hmm... okay, here's my trump card! Go, Emolga! Use Acrobatics!

-The flying pokemon nimbly strikes the Poison-type.-

-...-

-Emolga was poisoned due to Poison Point!-

Elesa: Hah, not so strong now that I have a flying-type, are y-

Phoenix: Ice Beam.

-The flying mon is knocked out swiftly.-

-Phoenix recieced the Bolt Badge!-

-As Abraham retakes his seat, a simple glance at the table told who was chosen. Some red breaking up the yellow, with no green to be seen.-

Eric: Well with this I believe the result is plain. With this vote, it has been decided that Martin Clavis will be the next head of the main family. Renard Clavis will be spun off as the head of the newest branch family. Johann Weber-Clavis will remain the scion of the Weber-Clavis branch. Martin. Please come and join me at my left.

-Martin while, his expression is neutral, he has an air of smugness about him as he and Shale move out from behind the table and walk to the other end of the long table.-

-Johann slumps back into his chair looking very disheartened at the results and the looks from his father.-

-Ren casually retakes his seat and looks down the table. Martin blinks a bit at Ren. Martin had expected dejection from his younger brother in some capacity, but he didn't see that at all. Rather, it couldn't be more evident form Ren's posture and expression that Ren had expected this result. And it was better than the result he wanted.-

Ren: -in thought- And now it's time for the show to really get started...

Mauville

Talbain’s ear flicked. He looked over to Leo. He promptly removed the scarf before meeting him at eye level. Colt waved and approached.

“What’s going on?” He asked bluntly.

[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]

-Owen is sweating Owen sauce-

Easy, Owen... You've prepared everything... Set up quite the schedule... So long as you don't spoil the intro you're fi-

-Here comes Alonya-

-She looks a bit despondent-

Owen: ...Alonya? What's wrong?

Alonya: Oh, it's... It's... It's Sombra. She still won't come out of her ball... I was hoping she'd come on the date with us...

Owen: ...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

-Heracles snarls in a fashion indicating he has a schedule in mind-

Neon: Well where does he like to go?

Bagon!Jackie: <This has turned into a game of 20 questions...>

-Aphrodite fingers the thing under the desk more-

Aphrodite: My condolences. We at the Yggdrasil Corporation would have appreciated your input.

Leo: *points to Cerbeau* Blame him. He was the one who literally pushed me into a conversation.

Cerbeau: <Hey, I was nudging. NOT pushing. There's a difference, you know.>
