ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

- Umbra is wandering around with everyone but Abel, Jadis, and Gilgamesh in their Pokeballs, when he notices Fool -

Umbra: Why hello there!

49: OK, Ember use Ember!

(Ember hit the Sandshrew with a slight fire)

Sandshrew: Come on you can do better than that. (Hits Ember with a bunch of stars [Swift])

Ember: Pretty powerful... but I can still beat that. (Scratches the Sandshrew repeatedly [Fury Swipes])

Brosef: (Watches the battle from inside his pokeball) Talk about a cat fight.

Sandshrew: OK, try this one! (Hits Ember with a bunch of large rocks [Rollout])

Ember: (Struggles a little) OK, I'm going down... so I better end this, right now. (Punches the Sandshrew repeatily [Close Combat])

(The Shiny Sandshrew reaches 1 HP)

Ember: Hey, Master, it's really low-leveled, want to catch it.

49: You kidding, it's a Shiny pokemon, of course I will.

(49 throws the pokeball at the weak Sandshrew as the pokeball waves back and forth... until it finally stopped)

49: Sweet. I caught a shiny Sandshrew (Smiles) Good job, by the way, Ember!

Ember: Thanks!

49: You're welcome! (Picks Ember back into her pokeball and continues walking)

Safari Zone

Fool: Oh there you are! I was wondering where you went!

Say, do you want to battle? I've haven't had a good battle in ages.

^Lenore^: ^Battle? Did you say "Battle"^

Fool: Yes I did Lenore! -To Umbra- Pokemon Limit?

^Lenore^: ^Battle? BATTLE? BAAAAAAATTTLLLEEEEE!^

Lenore then starts flying around the Safari Zone screaming "BAAAATLLLE!" before Senator Silversnout slaps her.

[Senator Silversnout] : [Keep it together Lenore!]

^Lenore^: ^Okay...^

Lenore flies back over to Fool.

^Lenore^: ^Sorry about that.^

Fool has written it down in her mind that this instance will be never brought up again

Mt Pyre.

Vyvyan: I-I did. A rather large tree not far from here... It's near water... And it's quite reclusive! So Buggle and Depthcharge can get some fresh air...

Vyvyan doesn't notice the Vulpix tugging on his cape.

-Has been busy this whole day-

Umbra: Let's do three. I'll have Gilgamesh...

Gilgamesh: Yay!

Jadis: Are you sure?

Abel: He'll be fine.

Umbra: Along with Xu and Susano.

- He lets them out of their Pokeballs -

Safari Zone

Fool: Hmm... I'll use...

Lenore looks at Fool with the big, Puppy-Dog Eyes.

Fool: Crowbar... Sasha...

The Marowak and Swanna move out in front.

Fool: And lastly...

Lenore looks at Fool with the big, Puppy-Dog Eyes.

Fool: Maren!

Fool sends out the Banette, who twists in the air before landing smack-bang in the middle.

Maren: <Hello World!>

^Lenore^: ^...:'(^

Fool pets Lenore.

Fool: Don't worry Lenore! You can be the Referee~

^Lenore^: ^:D^

Lenore stands inbetween Umbra and Fool

Fool: Ready Umbra?

Umbra: I'm ready. Xu, go.

- Xu steps up to the ring. -

Xu: If you think poets can't fight... you'd be wrong!

Hmm... Marionette hasn't returned yet...

- Looks over at Wolf -

Should we head over to Mt. Pyre and get her?

Mt. Pyre

Sierra: Oh, that's nice.

Minun: <Sierra, look!>

Sierra: Huh? (notices the Vulpix) Oh!

Vulpix:

Probably. Either she's actively making you worry, or something is keeping her.

Dinner.

Safari Zone

Fool: Crowbar? Go.

Crowbar steps into the ring.

Crowbar: <I don't care what you do, good sir. Just keep it classy.>

^Lenore^: ^I have alwyas wanted to do this! CROWBAR VS XU, ROUND ONE GO!^

Mt Pyre

Vyvyan turns around

Vyvyan: What is it?

The Vulpix is still hanging on to Vyvyan cape, even after being swung around.

-I walk over to Envy's grave and see Envy talking with the Ghastly-

Aurora:<Hey, I know that you're talking here, but could you do it somewhere else? This is the grave of someone special to us.>

Envy:<Alright fine. We'll g—Wait, I know that voice! Aurora!>

Crescent:<Who's this Aurora?>

Aurora:<I don't know. I don't recall having a Shedinja friend.>

Envy:<Of course not! It's me, Envy!>

-The three of us stare at Envy with out mouths wide open-

...You're Envy?

Entrance to Mt. Pyre

Bonecrusher:<I wonder what's going on up there?>

Naida:<Humans like to pay their respects to their dead according to Caliburn.>

- Nods -

Yeah, I guess.

Mt. Pyre

Vulpix: <Whee!>

Sierra: There's a Vulpix clinging onto your cape!

Vulpix: <Tee-hee!>

Umbra: Xu, use Acrobatics!

Xu: With the grace of a champion, I go!

- Xu leaps into the air and does a backflip before aiming at Crowbar -

Mt Pyre

Vyvyan: Bluh?

Vyvyan holds up his cape, only to see that there is, indeed, a Vulpix hanging off of it.

Vyvyan: Well, I'll be darned! Indeed there is!

Safari Zone

Fool: Wait till he's close!

Crowbar twists around his Bone like a baton.

Fool: Now use Blizzard!

Crowbar's eyes glow blue for a moment, before he fires off a Blizzard at Xu.

...But Envy's dead! I saw it with my own two eyes! Granted, I blacked out soon after when the Tyranitar hit me, but I definitely remember the Tyranitar viciously mauling her.

Crescent:<Envy was a Ninjask too.>

Envy:<I'm Envy, back from the dead. Though, I'm no longer a Ninjask...>

Back from the dead? How?

-Envy explains the Spirit Games to Straw-

I see...Well, I guess you really are Envy then.

Crescent:<Wait! How do we know you're not just some Shedinja?>

Envy:<Crescent, you have a Plush Espeon that you talk to at night about your feelings.>

-Aurora snickers in the background-

Crescent:<...Okay I believe you. You didn't have to bring that up in from of Aurora though...>

Xu: How in Arceus' name...

- Dodges, but takes some residual damage -

Arrgh... won't be long before my curse of an Ability activates...

Umbra: Xu! Dragon Pulse!

Xu: Ranged attacks sound like a much better option right now...

- Fires a Dragon Pulse -

Mt. Pyre

- Sierra carefully picks up the Vulpix -

Sierra: Hello there, little one.

Vulpix: (curiously sniffs Sierra)

Nudi: <Tagg, where are we?>

Hell if I know. I wish one of the others were here though...

Nearby

Larvitar: <So you're stalking that same human again. What's so special about him?>

Duosion: <Science, that's what.>

Larvitar: <What is that even supposed to mean anyway?>

Safari Zone

Crowbar: -Suprisingly takes a lot of damage from Xu's attack. Taking him down to half- <Ye gads! What in the devilfucking dickens? How are you so strong?>

Crowbar shakes his head.

Crowbar: <Well, if it's a ranged battle you want, it's a ranged battle we'll fight! Engard!>

Crowbar forms three blue rings around himself, before firing the rings at Xu. As they home in on Xu, they turn into large boulders.

Xu: Oh dear...

- tries to dodge, but is hit by one of the rocks hard enough to activate Defeatist. -

Oh, drat! I'm a sitting Ducklett!

Umbra: Xu! Endeavor!

Xu: Time to resort to... ulp... dirty tactics!

- Uses Endeavor -
