ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

I doubt they care about that. If they are happy making shadow pokemon I bet they would be happy to destroy a ecosystem...

... Arceus I feel so cynical!

Pyrite Town

-Dune nods as he pulls out his Transceiver.-

Dune: C'mon, Mesquite, tell me some good news...

-He goes off into a quiet corner.-

"Thats why they are so despicable..."

Pyrite Town

-Herbert sighs into his X-Transceiver.-

Herbert: What else do you think happened? The Heatran was clearly cut off mid-rampage, or else we'd all be knee-deep in lava right now. So either they killed it, or they snagged it. I'm honestly not sure which possibility is worse... and as for how they did it, Master Balls are a thing. Let's face it, we're not beating them. We've had one big victory amidst a sea of defeats. I guess they're just stepping up their game now, taking off the kiddie gloves...

Yeah... I really want to storm in their base with Tagg and stop them right now... In fact that seems like the best thing to do at the moment.

Pyrite Town

Sakura and Grant just stand there, thinking.

Phenac City

Susanna: (clinging to Darien) Eek! What's going on? Protect me, Darien!

Darien: (typing up something on his P*DA) I'll send an e-mail to Lillith. Maybe she knows something.

Susanna: (blinks) W-Why do you need to e-mail her for that? I-I mean, she probably doesn't know anything more than we do?

Darien: (shrugs) It's worth a try, isn't it?

Susanna: (with a forced smile) If you say so. (thinking) Grr! I bet this is all part of her plan to steal Darien away from me!

Somewhere else

Lillith: (notices Hatchet) Oh, hello. Do you know if anything unusual just happened somewhere?

"Id suggest Teleporting into their base and having an Electrode use Explosion if that wasnt such a cop-out way to do it."

Pyrite Town

Jacob: "It could have melted it if they tried. It takes a Legendary to beat a Legendary, so I don't see how they got one without one. And the battles we've lost were small. We just one the first major battle. But I see your point okay hang on I'm going to go find you." -Hangs up-

-Moments later-

-Right behind Herbert- "Oh hey guys. Also Sakura and Grant. Ignoring your guys's date yesterday what do we think happened and what do we do now?"

That or have a pokemon use earthquake a lot.

Under Labs, some days ago

- Nazca falls asleep-

Nico: Dammit. - Recalls Nazca, sends out Opera- Ice Beam!

Opera: <My, you look most unkempt.> -Ice Beam-

Pyrite, near Herbert's group

Lina: Huh?

Chrome: <Judging from mental scans of the others I think a Heatran was caught by Cipher.>

Lina: WHAT?!

- Looking around at the others in the group-

Do you guys know anything else?

Near Lilith

Hatchet: Hmm? Aside from the erupting volcano, no.

Pyrite Town

Dune: ... Alright.

Professor Mesquite: Be careful, Dune.

Dune: I'll try.

-He hangs up, feeling that he was more trying to convince himself than his old friend.-

Dune: This is not good.

Mt. Battle — Base

Paula: Hey, it wouldn't have crossed my mind if you hadn't mentioned what you mentioned. Well, maybe it might have, but I would have wasted so many more pieces of paper writing down ideas before I thought of this. So you at least deserve some credit.

-She can't resist another giggle-

Paula: But enough about us. Let's see how they think about it. Claydol!

Nope, but I bet that's what happened.

Just... Ugh!

-obviously not well in the head right now, even the eevee seems happier than daisy right now-

Pyrite Town

-Herbert turns to Jacob.-

Herbert: Urgh, I hate having to deal with you... I just told you what I think happened. Cipher snagged a Heatran, and now we're all screwed. We could try to head them off at Mt. Battle before they can get away and Shadow it, but there's no way that'll work...

-He throws Lina a glance.-

Herbert: No. Why do people keep thinking that I know what's going on? I'm not an Arceusdamn encyclopaedia!

-Ophelia is hit, and shudders-

<B-b-because I am!>

-she sends vines in an attempt to Giga Drain-

Somewhere

Lillith: ... That doesn't sound good. (receives an e-mail) Oh, it's from Darien!

- I decide to send out a text to someone in the group, asking what happened -

- Meanwhile, Thoreau comes out of his pokeball -

Thoreau: <What's the big deal about volcanoes? Can't throw those.>

Cipher HQ

Verax: -Is here- "HEY lemme go get back into my armor before we share the news! I'm still dressed like-" -Gestures down at himself-

Pyrite Town

Jacob: -To Herbert- "Right...."

-To Lina- "We just heard a volcano errupt for no good reason. That's all we have to go off of."

"We could try using hit and run tactics to hinder their progress and make it more difficult for them to shadowify it. We may only be slowing them down, but it may be worth it if they have a legendary." Jason suggested to Herbert.

Pyrite Town

-Dune is now wandering, discussing something with Galvani.-

Galvani: <The backup generators will keep the important stuff on, but the residential housing will either be rationed energy or will have to come up with something on their own.>

Dune: I was afraid of that.

-They may run into Lina and Chrome.-

Pyrite Town

-Herbert receives Lilith's text, and quickly types out a reply.-

-He then looks at Jason.-

Herbert: Won't make a difference. They'll have already got it back to one of their bases by now, and they've got other facilities for Shadowing than the one we took down...

Under Labs, some days ago.

Opera: -is drained a bit- <At least you admit it.> -Ice Beam again-

Pyrite

Lina: Dammit. What'll happen to Phenac?

Chrome: -To Dune- <Do you know anything?>

Near Lilith

Hatchet: <Who the heck is Darien?>

Somewhere

- Gasps -

A Heatran was snagged!?

Lillith: Huh, guess that explains why the power went all weird in Phenac, according to Darien...

Thoreau: <Kohai would probably say something about punching volcanoes being possible, but he's not here...> (turns to Hatchet) <Oh, Darien is this boy Lillith likes, but who unfortunatly is dating a really annoying rich girl who yells and overreacts a lot.>

-Ophelia is hit again, and faints, letting out a sob as she does so-

-Kyrie twitches-

Not losing!

-she points, and one may hear a "WooooooooooooooooooOOOOO!"-

-Jimi, her Bouffalant, barrels towards Opera with a Head Charge-

Jason growled.

"Dammit. What if we try using some sort of infrared detector to locate heat spikes in the area, and when they unleash the Heatran to shadowify it, we track the signature and find the centre, before sending off a stealth party to take it out from the inside?" He suggested.

"Kind of a forlorn hope, but it could be worth it."
