Outside Camphrier
Pimpernel huffs.
Pimpernel: <Fair, Gallade jumped out there to help anyway.>
Herbert: <Hehe... cover me, Stylus!>
Regardless of Montu's injury he tries grappling the fire chicken and picking him up and away.
Gallade: <Hey! You won't->
The Lampemt proceeds to Confuse Ray him and he ends up smacking himself with one of his own tonfas.

Pakhet, angrier than she's ever looked before, sneers at Herbert with a terrifying look that's never been displayed before.
Pakhet: <YOU STAY AWAY FROM HIM YOU BITCH!!>
Pakhet then fires and Overheat from her mouth at Montu in a bid to protect him. Montu himself seems to be unable to do anything but grunt in pain.
At that moment, Cleo steps out of the car.
Cleo: Hey! What's goin' on-
Cleo notices Montu on the ground, injured.
Cleo then looks over to his assailant.
Cleo. Looks. Furious.
Cleo: -Kubrick staring- What the hell did you do you, motherfuckers?

Colt, Kazuma and Lucario all rained down fire onto Rabbid Kong, Lucario humming some vaguely familiar rhythm
as he fired off Category 5.

Logan: Huh. That's...mysterious.
Addie: <Any leads on where you came from? Like...does that pendant seem like anything from anywhere?>
Zippy: <Hm...>
-Zippy peers at the pendant-
No mind to think. No will to break.

How can she help? This seems a little suspicious.

-Rabbid Kong is blown back, and once again shifts to a diffrent position with more bananas and Earthquakes-
-At this point, there are few banannas left; however, the remaining enemy Rabbids move to guard them-
From: Molph
Well, that's something. Oh, hey, did you find out what your old name was? Me and Duolis are hoping to keep track of this stuff.
Speaking of which, uh, we have our first new recruit... by accident. Her name's Huginn.
-Duolis is attempting to explain to Huginn what happened-
Duolis: ...And so we're trying to recruit a bunch of Ghost crimefighters as a good way to solve all these issues, but since I cursed you by accident I... Guess you can just go on your merry way...
Huginn: Hmm... Sounds interesting. I want in.
Duolis: ...You do?
Huginn: -shrugs- I'm several thousand years old and my previous attempts at doing something with my life still haven't gotten me anywhere. My most recent one involving those Team Umbra brats didn't even get off the ground before Alli caught me. And as much as I dump on her the Trainer life with her gives me things to do and I didn't realize it until she buggered off to that other dimension. So this would be a nice addition to that.
...Plus it's better than babysitting.
Duolis: ...Okay then. Welcome aboard!
-Molph nods and texts Banquo-
Jean: She's the executive of like, two companies in the Clavis conglomerate with knowledge of other dimensions. She doesn't seem suspicious but I get the feeling she'll tangle us up in something big regardless.
-thinks-
Also could you assemble a squad for the operation?
Contact Me!
Oh, it's Barclay. Barclay Macraul.
And that name... Something concerns me, but I can't put my finger on what.
From:slainScholar
Stylus looks guilty, he doesn't want to be doing any of this, his tail and ears are drooping as he knows that a command is a command, and something in the back of his head is telling him to keep going.
He charges a aura sphere and aims it at Cleo, <I'm sorry. I'm so sorry! We were told to, Macrauls...>
He wanted to say more, Stylus couldn't.
The human grunt looks at Cleo.
Grunt: "...Someone hired our boss to get your Blaziken. That's what all this is for."
Herbert gets hit by some of the Overheat as he's trying to grab Montu, burning the uniform's hands and revealing his Conkeldurr-y hands underneath.
Herbert: <Hehe... you're not gonna get in our way.>
He then tries Stone Edging Pakhet like he did Montu.

Meet The New Boss
Molph: Oh, by the way, Banquo found out his name in life was Barclay Macraul.
Duolis: Oh that's good to hea- MACRAUL?!
Molph: -yelps- Woah! What's with that reaction?
Duolis: Okay, Banquo we can probably trust, but I know from 600 years in Kalos the Macrauls in general are bad news!
Huginn: I've heard the name before... Old money family with a penchant for collecting pretty much anything.
Duolis: Yes... They're mad collectors who will do anything and everything to get what they want, no matter how vile. Banquo must have been stamped out by them as a traitor to the family...
Molph: ...Should I pass that along to him?
Duolis: ...Probably not that last part.
-Molph goes back to texting-
From: Molph
She's a bit sketchy yeah but she's willing to work with us and not against us so yay?
Also apparently according to Duolis the other Macrauls are peices of work so be careful
Hm, noted.
Still, I got an address and wanna try looking into my old family, now that I got a lead.

-Vee uses Detect to lift Megan out of the way of the Earthquakes, as Lapis is knocked around by them-
-Pippy is battered by each Earthquake, bolstered by a desperately aimed heal blast and a directed Pollen Puff-
Pippy: <...>
<...>
<ha.>
-and with a pressure wave, a massive beam of burning light explodes from him in the direction of Rabbid Kong, the Rabbids, and the bananas, before he faints-
-Logan takes the pendant and examines it with the rodents, turning it this way and that-
Logan: Ever seen anything like it?
Addie: <Nope. Maaaybe the Luminous Crystal? But not really... It's pretty, though.>
Zippy: <It looks kinda like a Water Stone...but also a Dawn Stone? Hm.>
Logan: ...maybe we need an expert.
-they take out the Styler again and switch its setting, drawing this
◊ in glowing lines on the table-
-the pattern pulses once or twice, then flashes, and when the light clears there's an Alolan Geodude sitting on the table-
A!Geodude: <...yeth? What ith it?>
Addie: <Igor! We could use your expertise.>
No mind to think. No will to break.

Does she have even the slightest connection to Mobius? I may need to ask Echo if she's familiar with her in any way...
-To Jean-
Yeah, I can do that.

Ever: We could watch a movie.
Brie: Anything that's not another round of Uno.
Ever: Sore loser.
Brie: I'm positive you stacked the deck.
Ever: -smiles beatifically-
Amanita: Enough, you two. PEFE!Every, as the least exposed to pop culture of any of us, any movies you'd be interested in?
PEFE!Every: Uh.
Ever: Oh, how about Infinibrain? She'd love it.
PEFE!Every: I've seen it, actually.
Ever: What?
PEFE!Every: It came out only a little while after Dr. Tagg and the others found me. One of the older researchers was attempting to reach out, and as I was still a child at the time, thought I might enjoy watching a movie.
Brie: (worriedly) Did it not go well?
PEFE!Every: Actually, I had a good time. It was a very enjoyable movie.
-she gives Brie a little smile-
-Ever pauses-
Ever: ...Wait, I, Villain would have come out the same year, right?
Brie: Why do you— ...
PEFE!Every: I think I watched that too. I remember finding it very instructive.
-Ever looks horrified-
-a person in a trenchcoat is at the movies-
Person: Uh, yeah, I'd like a ticket to see [Popular Movie].
Ticket Sales: Here.
Person: Uh, this is a ticket for [Popular Movie]. I wanted to see [Other Popular Movie].
Ticket Sales: Uh, you just said [Popular Movie]. You're contradicting yourself.
Person: Very well, then I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes.
Ticket Sales: Walt Whitman? Really?
Person: Who?
-their trenchcoat falls off, revealing that they are a stack of Joltik dressed as a person, with a Chatot perched on top-
Ticket Sales: I wish I could say that's the worst thing I've ever seen here.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

-Channah is sitting somewhere and watching Big Savings, who's outside vigorously washing the airship's windows with a squeegee-
Nino: -walks by- Hm? Oh, hi! You're... the woman who helped me carry my stuff before.
Channah: D'you need more help?
Nino: Oh no, but thanks! I'm making necklaces out of dried berries, you want one? -holds out a couple of colorful necklaces indeed made from various Berries-
Channah: Sure... -takes one with a Figy Berry as the centerpiece, holding it awkwardly- Thanks.
Nino: A friend taught me how to make them! -grins-
Channah: Cool. Um. (a child is talking to me what do I do) -fidgets-
Nino: -looks out the window for a few seconds, then turns back to Channah- ...You are a trainer, right?
Channah: Last I heard.
Nino: Umm... Do you know how people get Pokémon? Of their own?
Channah: What, like a starter? Either from a Pokémon professor or just any way, it doesn't matter.
Nino: Okay. Because… Uncle Legault - my ca- Liepard, he just turned back to human form. Which is great! But, you know...
Channah: You got used to battling with him?
Nino: Yeah. I guess, maybe he could help me catch one?
Channah: -shrugs- I could just give you one to skip the hassle. He didn't strike me as real, uh. Generous.
Nino: Wh-Really?
Channah: Yeah. You don't have to bother him with that.
Nino: -clasps her hands together- Oh, wow! That would be nice. Thank you, uh...
Channah: Channah.
Nino: Right!
-outside, Big Savings blasts the window with a high-powered jet of water and they both jump-
There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

<Okay, screw this,> Lucario D.C. decided as he leaped well above the earthquake and punched forth a Vacuum Wave into what remained of Rabbid Kong's pile of bananas to send it flying. When he touched the ground again, he noticed that Colt and Kazuma were struggling to stand up from the Earthquake. He rolled his eyes under his blindfold and left them to get roughed up by what few Rabbids would be on their tails - they could handle them - as he decided to get up close and personal with Category 5.
Mallville - sometime in the future
A 20-something in a gray jacket of distinct Unovan descent, sitting on a bench with a pair of Vulpix ears atop his head flicking at the sounds around him, is looking around the mall.
He'd probably be spotted.

Cereza: <Cipher...there's only one reason they would kidnap a Pokémon.>
Jessica: "Experiments."
-Cereza nods sadly.-
Achille: <Shadows, hybrids, biotech implants...they disgust me.>
-He downs his (decaf) coffee and gets up.-
Jessica: "Where are you going?"
-Achille walks to the door.-
Achille: <To cash in some favors.>
-He exits the shop. A man in a fine suit and a baclava strides down the road.-

Pakhet is knocked by the Aura Sphere, but she doesn't take too much damage from it due to type advantages.
Pakhet: <Ow~!>
Pakhet leaps back up again and growls at Stylus.
Pakhet: <Ooh! You'll pay for that, mister!>
Pakhet brings out her wand and makes the firey kanji for fire.
Pakhet: <Burn Baby, Burn!>
Montu, however, is hit by the Stone Edge Knife.
Montu: <Arrrgh!>
Montu recoils and stumbles back, quite obviously hurt from the attack. He winces as he touches the injury.
Pakhet: <MONTY!>
Pakhet rushes to Montu's aid. Unfortunately, she does not know any healing moves, so she's at a loss at what to do.
Meanwhile, inside the car, Cleo is getting antsy.
Cleo: What on earth is going on out there? Hmph, I'm gonna check things out.
Cleo turns to Pimpernel.
Cleo: You should stay here, dandelion. You're not exactly built for combat, after all.
