ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Wasn't particularly aiming for it, but cool.

I'm not sure where to go from here, though.

Anom: ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!!!

Dinner.

-Feels a disturbance-

Hmm, that was weird, I just got the strangest urge to go order Gaia to stomp on someone's head repeatedly.

Anom: ¡Be careful with it! Try it on a flowerpot first!

-In a nondescript house in Greater Celadon-

"Hmm... Is there something that you would wish to do, Dr. Tagg? You've been quiet all day..."

-Back at the abandoned warehouse from earlier-

-A lone Murkrow enters the Warehouse-

<Mafiya!Murkrow #58: "Provalivai, mudak!"> *

<Mafiya!Murkrow #23: "Vozvrashchaites v svoi sobstvennoi territorii!"> *

<Mafiya!Murkrow #46: "Vint, chto razbit yego cherep!"> *

<Mafia!Murkrow: "Ah, shaddup! I'm only here 'cause 'da boss called for a meeting with all of 'da other bosses!">

-Flying in-

<Sonny: "Chto chert vozmi, proishodit?"> *

-Leering at Mafia!Murkrow-

<Avtoritet!Murkrow: "Vy daleki ot doma, gopnik..."> *

<Mafia!Murkrow: "'Dere's a meeting with 'da other bosses. Something to do with some upstarts 'dat were spotted around your territory earlier.">

<Sonny: "It's a big gorod, what's your point?">

<Mafia!Murkrow: "Look, they wouldn't call 'dis meeting if 'dey didn't think that 'dose upstarts wouldn't be trouble, now get out 'dere!">

<Avtoritet!Murkrow: "... How have you not managed to get killed with that tongue of yours already?">

<Sonny: "(*groan*) I knew that there would be some idiotizm like this... Fine. Where is the meeting place?">

<Mafia!Murkrow: "Top of 'da Game Corner, like every other meeting 'da boss calls.">

-Mafia!Murkrow flies off, while still being leered at by every set of eyes in the warehouse-

<Sonny: "... Let's go...">

-Flies off with Mafia!Murkrow-

-A few blocks from the house-

<Nadia: "Oh great, which one of these blocks is it?">

<Shaun: "I don't know! It's supposed to be along a back alley!">

<Iron Marrow: "You fiends are certainly doing an admirable job at navigating... How on earth did you ever find your way back to my tribe?">

<Nadia: "SHUT UP!">

Chase: <Well, I am sure you can find something to do around these parts. As for me, I have some important work to do.> (begins hopping over to another part of the area) <Let's see... The tunnel project is doing fine... The Pokémon that will travel to Pinwheel forest to help out the Pokémon there have been chosen...> (pauses for a moment) <... Maybe I should contact the Pokémon that are working on finding out where Scolipede and Liepard might potentially be keeping prisoners, and tell them to work even harder on finding it?>

-Stomach growls-

I guess we could go eat something Tracer.

Garchomp: -Is following behind- <Can't we just sniff your trainer out?>

-Looks at Toothless-

<Maybe if I sniffed that doll.>

-Cuddlekins walks over to Yaminokame and whispers to her-

^Cuddlekins^: ^Yami. Access the computer databases and find out who the person she's selected is. Let's see if we save this one..^

{Yaminokame}: {Yes Cuddlekins...}

-Yaminokame heads over to the computer room-

[Elvis]: [They won't listen 'Kins, they won't listen to ya'. The act's just too good.]

^Cuddlekins^: ^You never know Elvis, maybe this lot will listen^

[Elvis]: [You're gamblin' on a game you know you can't win.]

^Cuddlekins^: ^But I'll try until this blasted dictatorship is taken down!^

-The two just stare at eachother-

~Antonio~: ~Ooh! A staring competition! ¡Qué divertido!~

-Antonio trys to join into the "staring competition", but to no avail-

-Is now feeling very hungry, even though I'm still very nauseous-

Anom, do you have any plans for how you're going to get rescued? If so, can you get inside the chatroom and tell us them?

- Goggles and Chase continue checking up on the other resistance members to check how they are doing their jobs -

- While Artemis is presumably doing whatever she should be doing at this time -

Have to go to bed now. See you guys tomorrow.

-At the house-

"I suppose that we could do that... There's a few eateries not too far from here."

-To Pokemon-

"Did any of you guys want to come along?"

<Kammy: "I'll come.">

<Vesta: "Same here.">

<Leana: "You didn't think that we'd honestly pass this up, would you?">

<Guy: "Yeah! I could use a chance to show my skills!">

<Buster: "Right... Skills...">

"... Are you coming, Mike?"

-Is busy playing a Hyper Mecha Brawl game-

<Mike: "Not now, busy defeating boss.">

<Jodie: "You know what's missing from this game? More destruction.">

"... Did someone else want to come, then?"

<Nathan: "I'll come. Kanto is still pretty new for me.">

"... Okay... Just don't get me into trouble by climbing up buildings again, alright?"

"See you guys later!"

-Leaves house with Tagg-

_______________________

-On the roof of the Game Corner-

-Sonny and Avtoritet!Murkrow arrive-

<Sonny: "Ugh... What is it?">

<Mafia!Honchkrow: "We wanted to have a word about 'da upstarts 'dat one of my 'krows spotted in your territory today...">

<Yakuza!Honchkrow: "You know how we feel about shinryaku-sha...">

<Mundane!Honchkrow: "Ugh... And so it begins... Another meeting punctuated by random gibberish...">

<Sonny: "It was three yashcheritsy, an oshibka, and an ovtsu. I sincerely doubt that they would have been interested in this place.">

<Triad!Honchkrow: "Ni shi yi ge shagua... Do you have any idea what kind of havoc those five could have wrought if they were left to their own devices?">

<Sonny: "Against 60 bratki? I doubt that those five would have lasted even if it weren't for the help they've been getting...">

<Mafia!Honchkrow: "And 'dat's not all! My 'krow said 'dat you were attempting to recruit those five...">

<Sonny: "Well... You said it, there's no point in allowing a band of powerful gopniki to roam the streets... I offered them an ultimatum... Which I revised after I realized that some of them had some old ties with moya bratva... Besides, they're gone now, what more do you want?">

<Mundane!Honchkrow: "Ugh... I see that your idiocy doesn't just affect your speech...">

<Yakuza!Honchkrow: "... Very well then... We shall let this lapse slide... Were your kyodai any weaker, we would be forcing them into the pavement at this very moment...">

<Sonny: "Zamechatelnyi... Are we done?">

<Triad!Honchkrow: "Not quite... There is one other order of business to attend to... The daili is set to come with a new set of errands for us within the week... We wanted to attempt to work out an agreement as to who takes what errand... Lest another... Misunderstanding... Happen again.">

-In the air near the house-

<Nadia: "Oh, um... Sure.">

-Lands with group on a roof and fishes Toothless out for Garchomp-

<Toothless: "Can't you at least stuff a cushion down there or something?">

-Helen, having received the delivery order forms and maps, is tacking up Epona for a long ride. Ashes and Hermes are waiting patiently by my ankles, and Katanga is leaning against a tree-

You're sure you want to come, Katan? You'll probably be in your ball for a while.

Katan: <What am I gonna do here? I'm no good at this map-making and research. I am and always have been a fighter.>

You would've been better off staying with my dad.

Katan: <Don't say that, Helen. I love being part of this team. Even if it means long journeys in the ball. I'm used to it.>

-Helen finished tacking up and smiles at him-

I love you too, Katan. Now, do you know where your ball is?

Katan: <See, this is where it's a good thing I'm here. You'd never keep track of our Pokeballs without me. I'll snag everyone else's, too.>

-he zips off towards the house. Ashes and Hermes leap up and perch themselves on Epona's back, just behind the saddle. Helen tightens the strap of the bag containing the maps and order forms and waits for Katan to return-

-Follows Tracer to dinner-

Garchomp: -Sniffs Toothless and starts moving her head- <That way.>

-Starts gliding in the direction of Tracer's house-

-The messenger is awake-

-Drake walks down a path carved in the stone to the alcove where the messenger is. Some lanterns have been lit and the clan elder, a rather old Charizard, is sitting to the side-

The Messenger: -Holds up the blue stone claw- <I come with a message from the leader of the Lapis Claw for the leader of the Green Scale.>

Drake: -Holds up a pendant of his own, a green scale- <I and the elder are here. We shall take your message as leader of the Green Scale.>

-Sighs and turns onto my side-

-My stomach growls loudly-

Seismitoad: <I told you to keep it down in there! I have a headache today! Or am I going to have to make you shut up?>

That was my stomach...

Seismitoad: <I don't care for excuses! Maybe you wouldn't be so hungry if you didn't vomit up the food I fed you everywhere!>

-In the air over a Celadon suburb-

<Vlad: "Hey! Wait up!">

<Nadia: "Please be home...">

-The rest of the group follows Garchomp, coming to rest in front of a cramped house lying along a back alley-

__________________________

-On the roof of the Game Corner-

<Sonny: "... Why on earth do we accept these errands? We're vory v zakone not podenshchiki!">

<Mundane!Honchkrow: "If you don't want to run the errands, you're free to do so. The rest of us are more than happy to take your share of the payment.">

<Triad!Honchkrow: "Besides... Whoever's employing the daili pays quite well... We've become more powerful than we ever could have dreamed of thanks to these errands...">

<Mafia!Honchkrow: "Yeah, who cares if some nobody gets hurt out of 'dis!">

<Yakuza!Honchkrow: "I'm surprised that you of all of us are expressing sudden reservations... You're the one who first accepted one of these errands!">

<Sonny: "I did that to keep those miserable gopniki with the metal ptitsy from muscling my bratva out! That wasn't remotely comparable!">

<Mafia!Honchkrow: "And yet... Somehow you keep doing 'dese jobs...">

<Sonny: "Ugh. Fine. How did we want to divide the porucheniya up?">

<Yakuza!Honchkrow: "We divide them up by priority. The strange-speaking oyabun has first priority as of the last set of jobs...">

<Mundane!Honchkrow: "Excuse me?">

<Yakuza!Honchkrow: "Followed by the oyabun here, followed by me, followed by the other oyabun, and followed by you...">

<Triad!Honchkrow: "You know the arrangement. Share a job, share the payment.">

<Mafia!Honchkrow: "So we're all in agreement, 'den?">

<Yakuza!Honchkrow: "Hai.">

<Triad!Honchkrow: "Dui.">

<Sonny: "... Da.">

<Mundane!Honchkrow: "Assuming that you nimrods all said 'yes'... Count me in.">

<Mafia!Honchkrow: "Excellent. 'Dis meeting is adjourned, 'den.">

-Honchkrow and their acolytes disperse, leaving behind the Pokemon of the Mafia!Murder on the roof of the Game Corner-

-Decides not to bother Straw and walks away-

Later, near the Pokemon center

-Star is standing in front of all of her pokemon, staring at all of them.-

August:-To June- <Why is she staring at us?>

June: <I'm not sure...>

March:<I bet October did something...>

October:<Why is it automatically my fault?>

March:<You always do something, Mr. Ditz.>

October:<HEY!>

April: <Guys,stop arguing...>

-Sighs-

Ok, Guys. I can suddenly understand pokemon. Any idea why that is?

June: <No.>

April:<No clue.>

March:<I dunno.>

September:-Shakes head-

August: <It's probably nothing, Star.>

-Sighs Again- I hope so.

October: <Oh, Maybe you were a Pokemon in a past life or something, And you picked up the ability from then!>

..............What?

August:<That makes no sense, October.>

October:<At least it's something...>

-The Every is sTill paTrolling-

I hope that girl who overheard me didn't find out about the resistance...

Blobble: <Don't worry, she just thinks they're a bunch of wild Pokemon gathered under Nimbasa.>

How do you know?

Blobble: <I can see her across the street from where I'm hiding.>

...Blobble, what did I tell you about reading minds without permission?!

Blobble: <Nothing.>

That's because I shouldn't have to.

-Meanwhile, The Nylon is in the ResisTance Tunnel, spraying silk on any cracks in sighT-

Nylon: (Talking to herself) <I do love this job...I'm probably helping far more than I could in battle.>

-Inside the house-

-From upstairs-

<Zoe: "Someone's there!">

<Mike: "Come on, not now... I just restarted that last boss fight!">

<Jodie: "Don't hold anything back, Mike! Turn those robots into scrap!">

<Zoe: "... Anyone else going?">

<Kyle: "Yeah, no. I'm not answering the door again after that incident with the parcel deliveryman...">

<Zoe: "Come on, you guys, you're right there!">

<Kit: "I'll see who's there...">

<Kit: "Pascal... I'm female...">

<Pascal: "Oh... That's cool then, man...">

<Kit: "(*groan*)">

<Aloysius: "I'll come too...">

-The three reach the door-

<Kit: "Can one of you two check who's out there? I'm too short to see out...">

-Aloysius looks out the peephole for the door-

<Aloysius: "... There's a group of Pokemon outside...">

<Pascal: "Oh? What are they, man...?">

<Aloysius: "A Garchomp, a Salamence, a Gliscor, an Ampharos, and a Marowak in paint...">

<Kit: "... Do we let them in?">

<Aloysius: "We probably shouldn't...">

<Pascal: "Hey man... What if they're lost?">

<Aloysius: "Oh fine... We'll talk to them at the least...">

-Unlocks and opens the door-

-The group sees Aloysius-

<Shaun: "Oh! I'm sorry! We must have gone to the wrong house!">

<Iron: "And your navigation skills never cease to amaze me... Not that I'd expect you to be able to pick out a reasonable dwelling from this maze of sterile boxes...">

<Nadia: "Can't you just be quiet?">

<Vlad: "Um... Do you know where a trainer named 'Tracer' lives?">

<Aloysius: "This is his house, he just went out with one of his friends. Why, is your trainer looking for him?">

-In the laboratory within Scolipede and Artemis's palace-

Eelektross: <So with this compound and this one... no, no, no! I need a higher ratio of Scandium in this!>

-Eelektross, sporting a lab coat and glasses, is at work developing a chemical formula of unknown purpose-

Eelektross: <Once this formula is complete, we should be able to stabilize the... err, side effect of making Hydreigon's genetic structure decay. We need it to have as long a lifespan as we can if it's to be an efficient last-ditch weapon!>

-Well, so much for the "unknown purpose"-

Eelektross: <Bouffalant! Hurry up with the Scandium!>

Bouffalant: <Duhhh, you mean da green pudding stuff?>

Eelektross: <No! The white bottle on the left side of the shelf!>

-Eelektross buries his face in his claws-

<How does Scolipede expect me to finish this project under these conditions? When I asked for a lab assistant, I meant one that had a competent understanding of the minute chemical processes that are undertaken in this laboratory! Not someone who can't differentiate between the lab table and a bed!>

Garchomp: <Something weird has been going on here.>

Torchic: -Happened to have been left behind with Victini and comes from behind Aloysius- <Garchomp, you're here!>

Garchomp: -Looks down at Torchic- <I've never met a Torchic like you before...or maybe I have.>

-Gets a headache-

<This is so confusing.>

-Iron pushes her way into the house-

Iron Marrow: <Really, lardskulls, given this paradox touches the origins of my clan, are you SURPRISED your human may have stumbled across different fiends?>

-notices Kit-

Iron Marrow: <Oh, but YOU are still- no... not her... still from that philistine Kanto tribe though, no doubt...>

-sees the dining room's carpeting-

Iron Marrow: <...what sickly moss is this?>
