ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

-Miltank loses a little under half of her health-

"Whitney": Miltank, use Attract!

-Miltank comes onto Lake-

Miltank: <I've never seen a big strong gator like you up close before.>

-At the door, the Earthquake makes the Nidorino at the base of the pile stagger, almost sending the entire Nidoran pile down-

"Be careful!"

"The end of the world!"

"Mommy!"

"The world spinning is so much better that it not spinning~!"

Nidorino — <... Ugh... >

-looks up-

Nidorino — <This isn't working! No one comes! Hey you!> — calls to one of the Nidoran in the "head" — <look for a doorknob!>

Nidoran — <A what?>

Nidorino (shakes head) — <A handle! Something to grab the door!>

-Lake simply snorts.-

Lake: <I already have a girlfriend, thank you very much!>

-Cloaking his fist in Ice, Lake uppercuts the Bovine Pokémon.-

Cinder: <Did he just...Shrug off attract?!>

...Yeah...Looks like it.

-Cinder says nothing, shocked.-

Miltank: -Is about to get punched- <Oh no!>

-It crits, and Miltank faints-

Luke won, yes!

"Whitney": -Throws a mini fit- Darn it!

-To Luke-

Should we try to get her now?

Mezzo: Do you want to find the tribe now or later?

I guess.

-walks over to a nearby river- Maybe there's one in here? -sticks in head, looks around-

???: <No, I'm in here!>

EEP! -recoils as a Basculin snaps its jaws down where my nose was a second ago-

Well then...should we stick around here, or try Chargestone or Mistralton Cave?

-I quietly wander through the cave, trying to figure out why it's empty and so unnaturally dark-

Me: <Any dragons in here?> ~Cough~ Nope, that didn't work... ~Cough~ <I come with a message from the Green Scale.>

-All light is expunged from the cave-

Me: Well at least I got a response this time...

I'm fine with finding them now.

Sunny: <Let's try inside Chargestone Cave.>

Lake: <Oh...Didn't expect to win that easily.>

Sure, now would probably be the best time. Sorry about this!

-Sends out Zap.-

Thunderwave her!

Zap: <YEAH! BUZZAP!!!>

-Zap shocks "Whitney" with a bolt of electricity.-

Okay.

-TIMESKIP to Chargestone Cave-

So, if I were a tunnel that somehow transcended space, where would I be?

"Whitney": -Breaks the illusion- <Damn it!>

-"Whitney's" Chatot manages to dodge and tries to get away-

Eelektross, use Thunder Wave!

-Eelektross paralyzes the Chatot as well-

Now what do we do with these guys? Maybe another website expose?

Yeah, good idea. Then all of Johto will know what's happening here, which should get everyone to take care of the rest of the Gym Leaders for us.

Cinder: -Smirks.- <Everybody wins, then.>

Hi Whoever Penti wants to talk to!

-Some of the Nidorans hit the door-

Nidoran — <It's not opening!>

Nidorino (spits on the ground) — <Screw this then! Prepare to ram!>

"Wheeeeee~!

-The Nidorino backs away... heavily.... and... slowly....-

Shadow: <Well, I see plenty of tunnels here, but nothing is really standing out.>

-Looks at the paralyzed Zoroark and Chatot while posting the info on a certain website-

Now what do we do with these guys? I don't want to just leave them.

It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. A space-warping needle, in a magnetized haystack.

-pokes a rock-

Rock: -flies into another rock-

Maybe if we do that enough times a tunnel will pop up?

- The Resistance continuing doing their jobs, treating injured Pokémon, searching for more wild Audino to recruit, trying to find information on where Unite is and so on -

- Artemis is probably doing something, but nothing particularly interesting -

- DS' Sinnoh team continue their search -

- And DS still continues searching for what she is searching for -

Last post for tonight.

-there is a slow thud on the Gym's door-

Nidorans — <....> — all look down — <You suck at this!>

Nidorino — <It would help if you got off me!>

Nidorans — <No! We are pretending to be a human!>

-The Nidorino sighs-

I dunno. We should find a way to keep them out of trouble, preferably.

Magnet Train Station

"Tagg": <Okay, so the map says we can take a train here to Kanto, then we could find a boat going south easily enough...>

"Wingull": <Because the last sneak-on-a-boat trick worked so well...>

"Tagg": <Hey, that was a research vessel! I forgot scientists never take vacations... But just south of Saffron is Vermilion! They get cruise ships all the time! We could even find one docked there tonight if we're lucky!>

Conductor: Hello, gentleman. Mind if I see your pass?

"Tagg": <...Pass? Uh...>

"Wingull": -growls at "Tagg"-

-"Tagg" turns around and runs out of the station-

Conductor: ...why is it always my shift that gets the weirdos?

-Sunny telekinetically pushes a rock into another-

Shadow: <I don't think that's helping.>

-Sighs and catches the duo with two Ultra Balls-

That ought to work.

-Looks at his laptop-

Damn it, looks like it's going to take a little while before this info reaches the wider Internet since the server's down.

Hmm....-pokes another rock to send it zooming away, this time, there is a small hole in the wall behind it-

Hey, I think I found something!

-Concentrates, trying to pick up the slightest sounds of movement-

-Fails at doing so, gets out a torch which refuses to light-

Darnit... Wait...

-Gets out the dagger and concentrates, the purple flare manages to light up the front of the Deino standing in front of us-

Deino: <What is the message?>

Me: Um... ~Cough~ <I have to deliver the message to the leader of the Lapis Claw.>

Deino: <Fine... Follow me.> -Heads off deeper into the cave-

Cinder: -Growls.- <Typical...>

Lake: <Well that worked out alright!>

Yeah, it did! Okay, I need to get to the Pokémon Center and get my team healed. You coming, Tagg?
