ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

-Mason looks at her with disbelief and shock.-

Mason: You create... no... why would, how, I...

-He narrows his eyes, and snatches the document to make sure it's not an illusion. It's not, but he still leers at Sol suspiciously.-

Mason: You're not feeding me a bunch of Taurosshit here, are you? There's no way Xerneas would grant permission to make half-living constructs like that.

Sol: Half living? Oh no no no no, my miscoloured mons are full, not half!

I'm having to learn to pay the price

Mason: ...How? How did you possibly make it stable? Nothing developed in the School ever was! Vulture's were all unstable, and I nearly killed myself making—

-He shuts himself up mid-sentence.-

Solana raises a hand to her mouth at Mason's outburst, before patting him on the shoulder.

Solana: It seems to me you've had a hard time with such. Ever thought about talking it up with the big guy himself?

Solana tosses a coin.

Solana: As for how I can do a full critter. My Obscuric powers are... quite strong. Simply put.

I'm having to learn to pay the price

Mason: ...

-He shakes his head.-

Mason: ...I shouldn't ask for forgiveness over it. Nearly dying like I did made it clear enough that I shouldn't have done it. Hell, I'm a walking violation of his domain anyway, why should he forgive me for making something else and leaving it to suffer and die?

Solana: Now, Xerneas isn't as.... angry...? Miffed...? Whathaveyou as you think he is at you, if there's one thing I've learnt from being a friend of his over the years, is that he's really understanding and really forgiving.

Solana puts her arms on her hips.

Solana: Ya' don't know until ya talk to him, kiddo.

I'm having to learn to pay the price

Alonya: I had heard rumors from Mobius... But I'd never really thought there was such a way to understand Pokemon...

Owen: Great! -sideeyes Denalli- We should exchange these cursed scarves for regular ones and-

Alonya: ...Actually, let's keep them. I have ideas.

Owen: ...If you insist!

-Sombra just headtilts. Owen pays for the three magic scarves and the group heads out-

-Heracles likewise pays for a regular XXXXL shirt for hmself and the P->H scarf for Finn and heads out-

Molph: <Take care, princess...>

-Gina is looking around worriedly-

Rod: Excellent! Yggdrasil is a big subsidiary of the science part of Clavis Industries, which mother also runs... Maybe one of your people know Mobius's location!

Laura: Mobius is Dad's organization! Mobius and Yggdrasil used to work together before...

-she trails off-

-Mason sighs.-

Mason: ...I wouldn't know where to look for him. If you're really as buddy-buddy as you say you are...

-He clears his throat.-

Mason: ...I'll need someone to help me find him.

Solana smirks as she pulls out a Premier Ball.

Solana: Thankfully, I know a way~

Solana releases the Pokemon inside the ball. A pure white, eerily glowing, three-eyed Sawsbuck who doesn't look quite of this earth.

Lifealope: {...}

He looks at Mason and blinks all three eyes, slowly.

Solana: Lifealope here and Xerneas are like cousins, so he could take us there~

Remy looks at Rod and Laura incredulously.

Remy: I'm not combing through my records records just so some lost kids can get back home! And also, you know you can say "divorce", right?

Amber gasps.

Amber: Remy!

I'm having to learn to pay the price

-Mason stares in awe at Lifealope.-

Mason: ...Wow... uh, sure, yes. That works. Y-yeah.

"Have fuuuuuuun~"

Denali slides back to their post behind the register, bored out of their mind. Ah well at least messing with some people was fun.

"Those guys are so evil."

Tassa gives Molph one last hug, "I'll get off this island eventually old friend."

<Morning Herbert...> Stylus mutters as he hops off his spot, he stretches a bit and gives himself a shake, <Any ideas on how to catch that chicken?>

Ersatz Alliance

Finn: "Heh, if you're paying for this, I can pay for dinner, if you want."

Lumiose Hotel

Herbert shrugs.

Herbert: <Jay's working on it. No ideas yet, though.>

Phoenix: <the fuck>

-Phoenix looks at his arm and notices a strange version of a Xtranciever. He taps the screen and the word "Hasslemon" appears at the top of the screen.-

Phoenix: <what kind of homestuck bullshit->

-He attempts to text Gabe, to no avail. Strangely, he can only contact trained pokemon...?-

Alex: I wonder what I should name this guy.

"I'll try to keep in touch, miss, uh..." He paused before realizing something. "Did we ever get your name?"

[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]

-The phone rings. Skye picks it up.-

Skye: Hello, thank you for calling the Jaide-Amarin Module, this is Skye Amarin speaking.

Kai: Skye help I'm having a crisis

-Skye goes wide-eyed-

Skye: Kai? What's going on? Are you hurt? Should I send—

Kai: Not that kind of crisis Skye I'm just a huge bi wreck

-Skye deflates.-

Skye: ...Oh. Okay. Relatable. What's up?

Kai: All right so in the time since I dumped Lucius I have been impulsively flirting with like half of everyone I've interacted with and it's only hitting me how excessive it is now that I'm separate from everyone

Skye: Except you're probably going to flirt with Anabel now.

Kai: Skye B. Amarin I did not contact you so you could call me out like this

Skye: I'm not wrong, am I?

Kai: Shut

-Skye smirks-

Skye: All right, so, you're rebounding like hell. What's the list looking like?

Kai: Don't make me say it please

Skye: C'mon, Kai. Talk to me.

-Kai grumbles from the other side of the line-

Kai: Fiiiine. Psyche, Diane—

Skye: Oh, this is a fantastic start. First two were my girlfriend and my fiance.

Kai: Listen here now you

-smirk-

Skye: I'm listening~

Kai: Anywayyyyyyy Hae-Won, uhhh Daydre, Megan, Alice, both Memitos—

Skye: Isn't it pronounced Memito?

Kai: No its Memito

Skye: Huh. Anyway wow holy shit Kai.

Kai: Yeah I know. Anyway, let's see, I dunno if I actually flirted with Gabe but he was definitely cute as heck

Skye: I have no idea who that is so I'm just smiling and nodding.

Kai: Goth fairy guy, radiated gay, probably too gay for someone genderfluid like me who spends like a third of my time leaning feminine, same with Joseph

Skye: Oh yeah no "goth fairy guy" hits my gaydar all the way from here.

Kai: You get my problem!

Skye: Yeeeeeup. Anyway, any others?

Kai: Okay um so I might have possibly kissed Rose under mistletoe on Christmas Eve

Skye: ...Mmmmph. You're on thin ice, Kai.

Kai: I know

Skye: Whatever, at least it wasn't the Team Skull version of her. Then I'd have to come over and deck you. Anyone else?

Kai: Well seeing as just saying that took a few years off my life I figure it's apt to mention that Yvonne terrifies me but I'm also very weak for her

Skye: Yvonne as in... Yveltal?

Kai: Yeah I saw her again before we went to the Yangverse

Skye: God I wish that was me.

Kai: Also speaking of our Yangverse trip holy shit N was pretty

Skye: He looked just like Wolf!

Kai: Wolf was pretty too goddammit I wasn't kidding about that childhood crush on him

Skye: Kai you poor sap. So, last but not least, Anabel.

Kai: Skye please

Skye: She's purple.

Kai: She is and I feel betrayed

-Skye giggles-

Skye: All right, so, that's the list?

Kai: Honestly there's probably more but you get the point yeah?

Skye: Yeah, I get it. Honestly, I think your best bet is just taking the time away from the team to compose yourself. Come to terms, all that stuff. Hell, this call in the first place was a good sign, it's proof you're self-aware.

Kai: Yeah. Thanks, Skye.

Skye: Any time, Kai. Try not to flirt too much with my SO's next time you see either of them.

Kai: Trust me I'll try not to

Skye: Cool. See ya.

Kai: Bye

-Hang up-

-Owen and Alonya and Sombra and Herc exit here-

Owen: Not good, not good, that crazy person was almost on to u-

-He is interrupted by Alonya laughing-

Wha-

Alonya: Hahaha, oh wow, that was far more eventful than any trip to a clothing store had any right to be! And I can understand Pokemon now!

Sombra: <It's about damn time!>

Owen: Oh... Oh, huh! Ehehe, you're welcome!

Alonya: Where to next?

Owen: I know just the place, follow me!

Okay, good news she's fine... Bad news is she has high expectations... I hope the team is prepared for the next stage...

-they head off-

-Heracles snarls and follows, gesturing for Finn to do the same-

Rod: Technically speaking I'm an adult. And I don't think she was talking about our parents being effectively divorced at this point so much as... As why...

Laura: Yeah... It's all because Corey's gone...

Molph: I hope so.

-He starts drifting off but gets pulled into a huddle of the rest of this author's Hyul party by Gina-

Gina: So. What the hell happened to Gudrunn?

Kass: <I have no idea, except that sword is influencing her and we need to stop it!>

Molp: Sword?

Anna 247: Spectral-powered blade that drives any Obscuric of either side of their half of the Aura spectrum crazy! Probably worth a fortune!

Gina: And she's been lapsing back into bad habits already...

Duolis:' It's clear that we need to find her at any cost.

Gina: All right then. We get straight off this island... And go on a Gudrunn hunt.

...

...Non-lethally of course, she's my girlfriend.

GG: Whomst is this

GG: Are you zat guy Gabe talks about

Jim: ~CALL HIM BOJANGLES~

-Neon is on patrol!-

-In full armor-

-He's getting a few looks-

Alex: ew no

Alex: His name is Jimbo.

Lloyd: —which means you actually have friends now!

PEFE!Every: You have correctly, if vaguely, summed up my last seven years. Good job.

Lloyd: I didn't exactly have a lot to go on. You were kind of mysterious back then.

Ever: She hasn't improved about that.

-PEFE!Every and Lloyd both jump-

Ever: Oh, yeah, hi I guess. What's going on?

Lloyd: Oh, we've just been catching up.

Ever: (cautiously) On how much?

Lloyd: Uh, apparently she gets out a little more than she used to?`

Ever: Oh, that's alright then. Why didn't you call her back?

Swablu #3: <Hey, look! That guy has armor!>

Swablu #2: <Sis, I think mom and dad don't want you running off any more...>

Swablu #3: <Live a little!>

-she starts to dive, and is plucked out of the air by Salamence-

Salamence: <What did Spathi and I say about superheroes, sweetie?>

Swablu #3: <Uh...>

-she just chirps-

Spathi: <It's understandable that you want to be a hero. But you're still young, and it's important to be sa—>

Swablu #3 used Sky Attack!

Salamence: -tugged along- <WAUGH!>

Swablu #3: <HEY SUPERHERO GUY ARE YOU GOING TO GO FIGHT A VILLAIN?!>

Spathi: <...Come along, we should provide backup for your mother.>

-"After Burgh fills Ramona in on what happened, and on what he was painting, the girl is left confused still."-

Ramona, shocked: I was unconscious for 4 days?

Burgh, nodding: It would seem that the burn you got was an odd one. Even after we managed to get it to stop smoldering, it seemed to still cause you pain. Seeing as you're up, is it safe to assume that the pain's gone?

Ramona: Well, -she looks at her left shoulder and winces- it still stings a little, but it's not that bad.

-"Lucy and Aya sigh with relief, while Victor stares at Ramona blankly."-

Burgh: Well, that's something at least. -Suddenly the door to the building opens and a dark skinned woman with big hair steps in- Ah, here she is. -He gestures towards the woman- Miss Ramona, allow me to introduce Nacrenes city ex gym leader, Lenora.

Lenora, to Ramona: It's a pleasure to meet you. -She turns to Burgh- Burgh... what exactly where you doing in here?

Burgh: What do you mean?

Lenora: The people covered in paint.

Burgh: Oh, that's just a new art project. The colors of man.

-"Lenora studies the painter for a moment, then turns to Ramona."-

Lenora: So, feeling better?

Ramona, nodding: Yep, little hungry though.

Burgh, sadden: Doesn't anybody want to know about my art?

Let's all have fun

Jim: ~JIM, JIMBO, IT FITS~

-Heracles snarls in a fashion indicating he thinks the other couple knows what they're doing, maybe, and the schedule was kinda vague anyway-

-The group is lead to a small theater-

Owen: Now, I've worked my Oran OS magic to show you a very special movie! It's a suprise!

That surprise is [INFINITY WAR], which isn't even out yet! She's going to love it!

Alonya: Oh! Looking forward.

-They head in. Owen's mons serve snacks and drinks as an Oran Berry-themed timer counts down to the show...-

-...And when the timer runs out the screen starts playing From Space: With Love-

-Owen looks on in horror-

My systems downloaded the wrong movie! Impossible! How did this happen?!

-De Leo is napping on a keyboard to the screen showing multiple torrent files, stopping to yawn and stretch and    paw    at it-

GG: Oh, I see who you are. I see how zis goes

GG: Well first of all it seems you have been turned into a Pokemon and captured

GG: Otherwise you wouldn't be using hasslemon now

Neon: Oh! Yes I am!
