-While heavily belated, the run into happens yes-
Oof, careful. Also hi?
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.
like christ, but with more nails
Al: <Ciao! Ooh, you'd make a good source...> -flaps his red-eyed tail like a beaver, tilting his head- <Alright! You can come along with me too! Uhhhh...> -looks at the others, counting under his breath- <...four, five! Okie!>
-the little Wynaut ignores any possible response on Pent's end and proceeds to keep moving with somewhat more confidence, like he's gone this way before-
Al: <Now we'll see if the Boss's door opens this time!> -to the group at large- <You guys have weird passwords for your rooms.>
There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

Le hwat? Uh... Okay..?
-Pent shrugs and follows. At a safe distance. With one hand ready to draw a weapon if need be-

Dunsparce Cloud
Amanita: Uh, the boss? Is this someone on the team?
Phobos: <Doesn't this seem kind of suspicious to you?>
Amanita: Kind of, but it's more interesting than anything we've been up to since the Badlands.

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Al: -leads the group to a room with a closed door - specifically, Channah's-
-the door has five red handprints in a row on it, with a small instruction written in the same red substance below-
BRING THEM
Al: ^_^ <There! That was easy!>
-the door begins shuddering in place-
There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.
Dunsparce Cloud
Amanita: ...You know what? I change my mind. Super ominous.
Phobos: <Meeep....>

Huh. That's delightfully vague.
-Pent takes a step back from the shuddering door and prepares for a fight-

Meet The New Boss
-Julius exits in his new outfit, the ring stowed in one pocket and the credit card in the other, heading in the direction of Jackie and Maggie-
-Bathory follows, making herself invisible-
-Shortly after Robin and Sam sneak after too-
Contact Me!
That's just how it is on this bitch of an earth
A certain loud and be-fannypacked Empoleon is about. He spots Julius and waves.
EMPEROR: <HELLO! I don't believe I've seen you around before!>
off the shits
like christ, but with more nails
-after some more convulsive dramatics, the door finally opens, rather smoothly and quietly in fact. Inside is... not a normal Stormchaser room. Instead, it looks like this
◊, a really boring apartment room-
-something about the flat seems to invite one in to explore-
There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

Well, that's unfitting to the door and incredibly normal and I don't trust it in the slightest. Dibs not first in.
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.
Meet The New Boss
-Julius shakes his head-
Julius: Sorry, this is just taking some getting used to. Pleasure to meet you, Emperor.
-Closer-
Contact Me!
Flying Colors
-Diane flops onto Kai's couch.-
Diane: Aaaaa finally we have a time to start our movie night up again
-Kai giggles and gives Diane an affectionate pat before going to get popcorn.-
Kai: Nice to see you too~ Give me just a sec.
Diane: Sure thing. Which movie's next on our list again?
Kai: [Avengers]. End of phase one and all.
Diane: Ooh, nice. Starting off strong. Speaking of strong, you got anything to drink in case there's another heartbreaking loss?
Kai: I will only provide them if and when it happens, dear Diane.
Diane: Oh, fine. Gosh, so responsible.
Kai: Diane Jaide, I care about your wellbeing to the point where I would take a bullet for you; of course I'm going to make sure you drink responsibly in my apartment.
Diane: Aw, that's sweet. I'd take a bullet for you too.
Kai: Let's hope it doesn't come to that, yeah?
Diane: Oh, dear gods, I really hope not. That'd be an awful way to go out in our current respective lines of work.
Kai: Tell me about it. Imagine the social media outbursts.
Diane: Oof. Terrifying thought.
That's just how it is on this bitch of an earth
EMPEROR: <What’s taking getting used to? I would like to assist, if I can!>
...
<My good sir! I do believe somebody is trying to approach us!>

She may or may not walk directly into either the metal penguin or the former possessed evil emperor.

Dunsparce Cloud
Amanita: Uh.
-she almost takes a step in, and then stops-
Let's not repeat that particular mistake.
Right, if I were Ever, I'd probably just walk in without a care. Fortunately I'm not, so...Phobos, be on guard.
Phobos: <I-I'm always on m-m-my g-g-guard.>
Amanita: I guess I can go first.
-and she steps across the threshold, her shadow flickering as Phobos shifts restlessly inside it-
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Hae-won: "...I dunno what to make of this."
Gogie and Yunwa are watching the sun set.
Yunwa: "So, back to normal with this, huh?"
Kaisei: "Yeah..."
"And uh, if you don't wanna keep becoming human, you could talk with Mew and get that fixed."
Yunwa: "Who is Mew anyway?"
Kaisei: "Uh... cat goddess who likes to help peoplemons but doesn't always have a good idea of what people want."
Yunwa: "...Well, I'll think about it. Nice to actually understand what you and the others are saying."
Kaisei: "I think the human end of that'll stick around at least."
Yunwa: "Well I'll-"
The sun sets and moonlight hits.
Yunwa: {-think about it.}
Gogie: <...Heh, looks like it's back to...>
He makes some general gestures.
Yunwa: {...That said I'm hungry. Humans eat barely anything.}
They tear out a chunk of dirt and eat it. Gogie sighs.

Some Rando
Bwahte 4
“Ah, hello,” Colt and Julius chorused, as the respectively loaded Pot Shot and Category 5.
“Shall we get started?”
Alola League - Flying Chamber
Colt ascended the stairs and locked eyes with the green-haired girl in front of him. Wordlessly, she set her 3-Wood down and grabbed a Pokéball.
Colt did so as well, and they both leaned back and watched.
Colt sent out Xatu!
Xatu sighed, said sigh slowly turning into deep breaths.
Considering if his trainer was the only flying-type fan here, Skarmory decided later ‘mons could test the waters.
Without either of their consents, the spikes boomeranged to go back to sitting below Skarmory.
Skarmory looked below him before reorienting himself, only to see Xatu sending out some black smoke that hurt somehow.
Skarmory waited until the wind dropped, and then struck him when vulnerable.
<At least it’s not ice,> Xatu considered before he let out a grating noise that only existed at the altitude they were at.
It’s not very effective…
Stones fell from the ceiling a little later.
It’s super-effective!
Xatu lifted himself up, letting off one last attack.
Skarmory fainted!
Every stat rose!
Xatu flitted around the area joyously, getting into position just in time to surprise the next ‘mon.
Xatu used Air Slash!
Mandibuzz didn’t care.
Xatu fainted!
“Hey Rei? You wanna take your new abilities for a spin?” Colt asked.
She then appeared beside Mandibuzz, who now had claw marks on her face.
Mandibuzz flinched!
She smiled primally and coated her claws in ice. She dug them into the ground and then Mandibuzz took a few icicles to her weight, halting her Air Slash attack cold.
It’s super-effective!
Mandibuzz flinched!
Mandibuzz’s flapping stopped as she attempted to land.
<Let’s go down,> Rei allowed, suddenly behind her with her claws in her wings before she backflipped and used Mandibuzz’s body to cushion her fall.
The fall was from higher than Mandibuzz started due to Rei having grabbed her wing on the ascent to the apex.
It’s not very effective.
Mandibuzz fainted!
Colt stared slack-jawed. Rei smiled and shook her head. <I love me!> She stated simply.
“Give some credit to Xatu,” Colt warned as Kahili sent out her next ‘mon.
The Fire-type Oricorio, behind Rei’s back, started dancing. The Weavile lost control of her limbs as she too, danced.
One of those steps ended with her punching herself in the face and falling to the ground.
Rei became confused and struck herself!
Rei ascended to her feet and wobbled a little more, not used to how dizzying the dancing was.
And then she fell to the ground again when trying to dig her claws into the ground. <One moment!> she asked for.
Oricorio didn’t give her that inch, instead setting her alight with another dance.
It’s super-effective!
Rei landed on her feet, gracefully again, as she then grabbed Oricorio’s wings and continued to ascend.
Rei landed after Oricorio, who had landed face-first onto the ground. She didn’t get up, having also taken some scratches from the Razor Claw in Rei’s hand.
A critical hit!
Oricorio fainted!
Kahili returned Rei’s second victim. She had to contemplate just how the hell this Weavile was so strong.
Colt felt a little bit sorry for her and her team, as did Rei. But they didn’t say anything. This was fair game.
But Rei did look rather fatigued, which gave Kahili a little bit of hope.
She knew Crobat was faster than this Weavile, as evidenced by…
Rei fainted!
Colt applauded slowly. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t know that evolution made her that powerful.”
“Just fight,” Kahili demanded. Colt could not oblige, as he did not know if humans turned Pokémon could compete.
But a certain Fire-type didn’t have that problem.
The Delphox landed, and was met with a ball of darkness that forced her hand a little.
It’s super-effective!
Sunny used Light Screen!
Crobat tried powering through the Screen, to no visible avail.
Sunny wasn’t satisfied with the resistance she put up.
Crobat’s Special Attack fell!
The effect was noticable and valued.
Sunny used Psyshock!
Crobat fainted!
Kahili was down to her last ‘mon. Make it count. She stood up, grabbed her club in a reverse grip and threw her ball with as much force as she could.
Sunny didn’t know the ‘mon’s affinities, but favored to stay defensive.
Until a light enveloped them both and Sunny realized her mistake.
Colt sighed and grabbed a Great Ball.
He had been pretty negligent of him. He was probably restless.
He had subbed out his Wise Glasses for an Electrium Z, but didn’t dare use it yet.
Time to be a nuisance!
It’s not very effective.
Toucannon responded by trying to break 9-Volt against Sunny’s screens.
“Look at me now, I’m making my play!” Colt began, gesturing to 9-Volt as a light enveloped his wrist.
<Don’t try to push your luck; just get out of my way!>
Gigavolt Havoc Generator Buster!
Colt left the chamber.
The champion was next.
He sat down and mulled it all over.
Was he ready?
[Insert Unoriginal Stinger Here]
Finn: <Is it one of the newer ones? Stick it in the hole, sign your name and that junk.>
And then it works.
<Or it works anyway, nevermind.>
Gogie: <Uh, could someone order a Nomel sorbet for me?>
