-She turns to her teammates.-

Kai: I'll make sure to get all this smoothed over with Looker and Anabel soon.

Asimov Island - Shipyard

The cart pulled up and Silas stepped off, there stood Johnathan and Zeke, Zeke was smiling looking proud of the end result, while Johnathan himself was looking pretty pleased, though judging by the bottle nearby was getting ready for a celebratory drink.

Silas and Hacks looked up, there sat the new airship, Silas blinked at it, it wasn't one of the blimp based designs, being more solid like modern airships with magnetic lift, it had a vague pod like shuttle design with two large engine cells, complete with magnetic ram-scoops and intakes, no doubt for oxygen plasma thrust in atmosphere and hydro-

~Silas!~

Silas shook his head, "Huh?"

~Started to space out there, were you thinking about how this thing is made?~

"Yes," Silas put bluntly.

Zeke let out a small laugh, "Welcome back Captain Grant."

Silas smiled, "Still not over being called Captain... It's just a good title. So, what's the deal?"

Zeke smiled and walked Silas over, "This is our new line of orbital airships, using the technology we've accrued over the years we managed to make a proper short range shuttlecraft, We've gotten a lot of testing done and after all you've been through and th-"

"This is because I'm J-Team and you wanna give them something thinking it'll put you in their good graces."

Zeke smiled deviously, "Oh cut right through that TS ya did. Yeah, I figure actually having something capable of orbital flight and the occasional slingshot maneuver out to the moon and back would be useful, the engines got enough power for that far, no further."

Silas shrugged, "That's still pretty far Zeke."

"For humanity now? Maybe. We got all those wanderers in our Solar System now."

~HUMANS! THE COFFEE MACHINE REQUIRES FILLING!~

Zeke looked displeased and sighed, "Such as one."

Silas looked over and saw a Beheeyem in platform boots and a black cape, with a large empty black mug with something written in a impact font, "ZILTOID" it read.

"Oh..."

Ziltoid marched over, ~What are you humans up to?~

Zeke sighed and held up his hands in resignation, "I got paperwork to deal with, the ship's yours. Johnny, you got things to do?"

"Yeah, need to work on something back at the factory, something about one of our green PRB units needing some repair."

The two walked off leaving Silas and Hacks with the Alien.

~So... what are you to up to?~

Silas blinked, "Looking at my new ship..."

~Really? What's it called?~

Silas looked at the white and black design, the cobalt blue stripes on it standing out, "The Oblivion Wing."

Hacks groaned, ~Really?~

"Hey it's the best I can do and it fits cause Kalosian."

Ziltoid chuckled, ~So... a little craft of your own?~

"Airship yeah... why?"

~I can see the thing in your bag, it radiates nonrational energy... I can help you with this thing... want a upgrade?~

Seafolk Village

Clutching his Darkinium Z, Colt wandered through the docks, looking for those familiar gates.

The island was incredibly barren, so there was probably nothing there. Didn’t hurt to check anyway, he decided.

He walked for a bit, looking at the Z-Crystal in his hand, not even noticing someone recognizing the gleam.

“Oh!” A voice chimed, grabbing Colt’s attention. He looked at where it came from to find someone who met his gaze. “Are you here for the Island Trials?” She asked.

“Yeah, actually,” Colt answered. “Is the trial nearby? I don’t really have much time.”

“You can actually battle me first if you want.” She relented.

“Okay.”

GAME FREAK Colton has challenged Kahuna Hapu!

Kahuna Hapu sent out Dugtrio!

Pokémon Delegator Colton sent out Sunny!

The Dugtrio ascended and the Delphox landed.

<Man, I want that hairstyle!> Sunny complained as she sent a stream of fire at her opponent.

Sunny used Flamethrower!

Dugtrio loosed up some dirt and then let it fly around the area. Colt, not happy with this, covered his eyes.

Dugtrio used Sandstorm!

Sunny was buffeted by the sandstorm!

Sunny took the sand in her face with a bit of grace and gave Dugtrio another blast of fire, only to see it partially fizzle out on the way, smothered by sand.

Sunny used Flamethrower!

Dugtrio quickly went underground and only Hapu had her footing prepared.

Dugtrio used Earthquake!

It’s super-effective!

The Delphox recovered her footing and decided to prepare for another possible Earthquake.

Sunny used Reflect!

Which served her well, despite the fact that she was not attacked with Earthquake.

Dugtrio used Rock Slide!

It’s super-effective!

Sunny, after recovering from the rocks in her face, did one last Flamethrower that brought Dugtrio down.

Sunny used Flamethrower!

Dugtrio fainted!

Hapu sent out Gastrodon!

The Sea Slug Pokémon met eyes with Sunny, whose gaze was now somewhat diluted through a second screen.

Sunny used Light Screen!

She attempted to bypass the fox’s screens with sheer force, which panned out pretty well.

Gastrodon used Surf!

Sunny fainted!

Colt returned the fire fox and mulled over his options. Who’d be best suited to dealing with this...

And then a ‘ball opened without his consent and a hazard found itself surrounding Gastrodon.

9-Volt sent out himself!

9-Volt used Sticky Web!

A wet ball of dirt found itself screaming towards 9-Volt, only to be filtered by the Light Screens.

Gastrodon used Mud Bomb!

Despite his bug typing and light screen serving to resist it, 9-Volt conceded that genuinely hurt. So he started siphoning the Water-type.

9-Volt used Giga Drain! It’s way too effective!

Gastrodon actually didn’t look in that bad of a condition, as evidenced by her response.

Gastrodon used Ice Beam!

9-Volt tried to wave off the cold but still felt it, even after he attacked.

9-Volt used Bug Buzz!

The Ground-type retaliated first chance she got.

Gastrodon used Surf!

After he was done being drenched, 9-Volt decided to finish it.

9-Volt used Giga Drain!

It’s way too effective!

Gastrodon fainted!

Colt exhaled and grabbed a Pokéball, knowing that if 9-Volt were incapacitated, he had a backup.

Hapu sent out Mudsdale!

Mudsdale was caught in a sticky web! His Speed fell!

The ground shook with his presence, and then shook again when the Draft Horse Pokémon slammed his hooves into it.

Mudsdale used Earthquake!

9-Volt fainted!

He threw the Pokéball he had queued up.

World Wanderer Colton sent out Helmsman!

In his excitement, Helmsman drew and flourished his seamitar in a very fast manner, ending with it held backhand in his trademark fashion. <Get hype!>

Helmsman used Swords Dance!

But while the water-type was dancing, Hapu was doing a little dance of her own, all while Mudsdale started radiating some sorta power.

Mudsdale surrounded himself with his Z-Power!

Mudsdale used Tectonic Rage!

It felt like some mixture of Earthquake and Earth Power to Helmsman, but he powered through. Incredibly pained, but not incapacitated.

He decided to bluff out the Ground-type.

Helmsman used Waterfall!

Mudsdale apparently expected Tectonic Rage to be the end of it, as he was a little too stunned to respond, and not just because of the damages.

Mudsdale flinched!

Capitalizing on his surprise, Helmsman went for one last attack to close it out, mostly just to prove to himself he could use it.

Helmsman used Night Slash!

A critical hit!

Mudsdale fainted!

GAME FREAK Colton defeated Kahuna Hapu!

Wordlessly, Hapu nodded and gave Colt a Groundium Z and a Z-Ring. “You don’t have one, do you?” Hapu asked.

“Nope,” Colt conceded.

“Impressive, but you really should get one. The last trial’s through the canyon.”

“Okay, thanks!” Colt waved off as he went in the opposite direction.

The Kahuna didn’t question it as she returned to her post. What she did question was him appearing behind the fence behind her house and walking to the canyon.

Colt walked through the caverns, the darker caverns speaking to him a little. He was alone with his own thoughts, and it was nice. No music to drown them out - did you hear something?

Colt turned towards the source, and though he couldn’t really make it out very clearly, the shape did remind him of something he should fear, no matter how small it appeared to be.

His fears were confirmed when the silhouette became clearer, and his backing up brought him into proximity of a clearer light source. UB Blade. And it was coming right for him.

He placed a hand in front of him and erected a Protect. “STOP!” He demanded. It struck the barrier and rebounded, visibly startled that he was halted.

Colt exhaled. “Can you understand me?” He asked.

“é☣•±☣ ♀☣, ♫◙•±☣!,” it said, turning away from Colt.

Colt’s hand drifted from his rapidly beating heart to his pocket. He still had that Beast Ball.

“Yo!” He called out, regaining the Kartana’s attention. He held up the Beast Ball, using Obscura to make it light up in the cave.

It returned and approached, ready to slash that thing in two - “Stop,” Colt demanded, erecting another Protect to keep Kartana off.

He summoned a few pictures in front of himself to demonstrate what was going to happen.

A picture of the Beast Ball, and Kartana.

Kartana touching the button on the front.

Kartana being absorbed into the ball, side-by-side with a picture of it inside a spacious environment.

But back at the top, where Kartana and the ball were side by side, a different picture branched.

Kartana floating away, and that was just kinda it.

UB Blade looked at both options before reaching for the Beast Ball, presented in Colt’s hand but not forced to choose anything.

“▓☣☼☼•♦▼ ↨•◙√ ▓☣ ↨♣♠♠▼☣♦▼,” it said before reaching for the Beast Ball and being absorbed.

The capture registered, and Colt released a breath he didn’t notice he was holding. That felt nearly life-or-death.

What did it even say to him? What sort of responsibility did having this thing in his possession entail? Was he going to have to fill out a mountain of paperwork to confirm if he was ready to have this thing?

Should he even give it a nickname?

He drew his phone and started slamming away as he drew Xatu’s ball to teleport him home to think things over a nice cup of coffee, and get the UB acquainted with the crew.

And maybe keep it from tearing his apartment asunder.

Makbaliv Ocean

Should we help them? Colt asked Xatu.

I think they have it handled, Xatu figured.

Joong-Ang Ilbo - [Seoul]'s #1 Newspaper

Murder-Suicide In Jungnan District Of [Seoul]

At 4:38 in the morning on May 1st, police were called to the home of Kang Min-seok and Su-jin, a middle-aged couple living in the suburbs of Jungnan, on reports of a noise disturbance. Mr. and Mrs. Kang's bodies were found in their bedroom. The cause of death has been ruled as a murder-suicide.

Police state that there is no further threat to the neighborhood and that this was an isolated incident.

Local news stations interviewed neighbors of the deceased couple. They claimed that Mr. and Mrs. Kang were mildly infamous "cultural rebels" who were occasionally seen "practicing some kind of Western black magic fuckery" in their home.

Mr. Kang was arrested for possession of Revival Herb and Energy Root in 1992, the latter of which in [Seoul] is illegal for standard Pokémon battle usage.

The couple had only one child, the long-deceased Kang Eun-sung, who went missing in 200X. A private investigator hired by paternal relatives and whose name is withheld for security reasons states that the younger Kang disappeared in the Johto region of [Japan] on a journey with Pokémon.

Asimov Island - Shipyard

Silas stared at Ziltoid, he didn't know what to make of the offer... a upgrade... "Wait what?"

~My commune has rules about giving tech to civilizations clearly not ready buuuuuuuut... We are allowed to give bits or minor upgrades if we feel it won't change the course of their history for at least another 50 years... I've got all of that. Plus I'm more stringent... that scarf... What does it do?~

Silas looked at Hacks and gave him a look of "You hearing this?"

Hacks shrugged in response and said, ~Just... explain it to him.~

"Turns me into a pokemon... a Lucario."

Ziltoid smirked, ~Excellent...~

Silas was worried, "So..."

~Here's the thing, I've got a thing coming up, not anytime soon don't worry... but I will just be asking you for a favor... in exchange for upgrading your ship with some minor bits and bobs... all I want for you is to owe me for something later... no questions asked.~

Silas frowned, "Yeah just because I've taken up vigilante work doesn't mean I'm willing to kill... was bad enough in the foxverse..."

Ziltoid laughed, ~ZILTOID THE OMNISCIENT IS NO KILLER!~

"You sure?"

~Absolutely! My favor doesn't involve the loss of life at all, I can understand worrying about that. But you see, it's more I need a champion for later, and unique qualities make you more valuable. Nothing to worry about... So... will you accept?~

Silas gave it some thought, having his own spacecraft would be amazing, right now the thing was a shuttle, but getting a full on upgrade... that would be nice... "Does the upgrade involve any FTL tech?"

~No, I can keep it entirely in your solar system. Don't worry!~

"Okay... I accept."

~Excellent! So what do you want?~

Silas blinked, "Uh? Want?"

~Yes! Artificial Gravity? Improved Thrusters? Free RCS upgrade comes with the package, you already got inertial control. Shields? Tell me!~

Silas blinked, "I only get one?"

~If I was to give you any further upgrades, that would be ridiculous and require more favors... unless you know more people willing to barter with me you get one.~

Silas sighed, the answer was obvious, "I'll take the artificial gravity."

It made sense to him, shields would be useless since nothing would attack him and his vessel, improved thrusters wouldn't counteract the constant weightlessness thanks to the ship's inertial plating and make no sense without artificial gravity. Being able to actually stand without weightlessness for the 6-12 hours to the moon on a slingshot made the most sense.

~Excellent choice! You won't regret it!~

Ziltoid clapped and several drones with the image of his face imprinted on them appeared, with several large crates, ~This will take a few hours! Have fun waiting!~

Silas walked off with Hacks beside him, "So... we got our own ship now."

~Isn't this what you always wanted?~

"Sure but I was figuring more rocketry for the solar system... though this will still do nicely, let's look at livery and interior options."

I'm going to go back to the Mobius airship.

Ever: ...You're cancelling your day off instead of taking off your labcoat?

Click!

Ever: ...Weirdo.

Every(?): Did someone say my name?

Ever: ...You're behind me, aren't you?

Every(?): No, I'm in front of you.

Ever: AUGH!

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Stormchaser

-Scarlette has gathered the energy to at least come out of her room, if not actually leave the airship.-

-As a result, she is meeting a few J-Teamers she hasn't gotten the chance to meet yet.-


Rose: Scarlette, Mason. Mason, Scarlette.

Mason: Hey.

Scarlette: Um, hi.

Rose: He's part of the Tragic Backstory bunch like us.

Mason: What, are we categorizing now?

Scarlette: Apparently.

Rose: -sweatdrop- I was just saying we have somewhat relatable experiences to each other, is all!

Mason: Pff, don't worry. I'm just messing with you.

Rose: I know! I know.

Scarlette: ...If it's all right, mind if I ask what your, ahem, tragic backstory is?

Mason: Oh, you know, born in a fucked up superhuman eugenics program, barely escaped with my life alongside my sister. You probably met her, her name's Alonya?

-Scarlette gasps dramatically-

Scarlette: You're the one who kidnapped himself!

Mason: ...


Kai: So, you must be Scarlette?

Scarlette: Y-yeah, that's me.

-Kai gives a gentle smile-

Kai: Kai Amarin, nice to meet you. I work with Anabel, particularly in the Battle Frontier, but also unofficially with the UB Task Force.

-Scarlette's eyes go wide-

Scarlette: Oh, gods, Chief Anabel... She must have been so disappointed after...

Kai: She was sad, to be sure, but I think she'll be glad to know you're safe now.

Scarlette: R-right...

Kai: Oh, speaking of which, Rose! Anabel did finally clear with Nanu that you aren't the same person as the Team Skull boss, so you two are free to continue your Island challenges if you want!

Rose: Oh, cool. Scarlette?

Scarlette: ...Maybe eventually, but...

Kai: No need to fret about it, recovery comes first. I wish you the best of luck.

Scarlette: Thanks...


Rose: This, uh, is my cousin. Diane. We've had a bit of a rocky history, but we're cool now.

Diane: "Rocky" is a bit of an understatement, but yeah. Hi!

Scarlette: Um, nice to meet you. Rose your cousin's hot what do I do

Rose: Scarlette!

-Scarlette yelps in embarrassment. Diane raises an eyebrow.-

Diane: Something wrong?

Scarlette: N-no! It's all fine! Um, so, what do you, uh, do?

Diane: Oh, yeah! I work at PEFE with my girlfriend and fiance.

Scarlette: dammit she's taken

Rose: please dont thirst over my cousin while I'm here

Scarlette: I'm sorry Uh, cool! You're, uh, a biologist, then?

Diane: Biologist and engineer. Not together, two separate things, I'm not Every.

Scarlette: O-oh. Yeah. Um. Cool. What kind of engineering, then?

Diane: Well, it's mostly just a hobby. I Snagproof Poke Balls for those who ask, for one.

-She smiles-

Diane: And recently, I've been making prosthetics, too! I could try to make you an arm, if you want.

Scarlette: Yes I want your arms on me

-...-

-(Distant Kricketot chirping)-

Scarlette: What does that even mean Um uh I-I mean sure yes if y-you want to uh

-Rose sighs. Diane giggles-

Diane: I'll be glad to work on it, then! We can hash out the details later~

Scarlette: R-right! Yeah. Okay. Oh geez I just agreed to it I didn't think I ever would aaaaaaaa

-Rose just... stares.-
