Vi: "I suppose that would be our cue."She sends out Aurelius to deal with an Employee's Sandshrew. Who, despite being clearly outmatched, valiantly holds his ground before being KO'd in two hits.
Vi, meanwhile, trips the Employee and tazes him into unconsciousness.
"Do we have an objective beyond mayhem at this point?"

Nacht Arena
-The Arcanine looks kinda ragged after that. Yeesh a type advantage and big moves does not lead to a long fight it seems-
"Hellfire": Come on bud, hold on a bit longer...
-The Arcanine braces himself and prepares to fire the deadly sun laser again-
Mobius Base
-Pent shrugs and slips aside a little and lets out the pokemon he was allowed to carry with him to start the work of fighting. Personally he himself was unsure whether to head deeper inside even though he was decently sure his belongings weren't in this outpost or to stay at the entrance and make sure everyone could extract fine after the destruction was done-
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.
like christ, but with more nails
Mobius Base, Kalos
Legault: -slips down an empty hallway and signals for Nino to follow-
Nino: -looks right, looks left, then sets fire to an office full of file cabinets- Like this?
Legault: I mean, I did hear someone say 'burn and pillage'.
Voice: Huh? Hey! F-Fire!
-a couple of Mobius grunts run out and block the end of the passage, sending out a Pikachu and Victreebel-
Legault: Why hello there! Nino?
-Juge comes flying out of his ball and uses Psychic on the Pikachu, knocking it out handily-
Legault: -rushes past the fallen mon to manhandle its trainer from behind and knock them out with a neat blow to the back of the head, then doing the same to the other employee before they can react- These raids would be simpler if we could just kill people.
Victreebel: <...Not fair!> -attacks-
There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation.

Kai: -muffled by the pillow they've chosen to bury their face in- Aaaaaaaaaaaa

I think I actually might be able to get some free time tomorrow? Or is that too soon
Tae didn't waste time and darted forward and attempted to strike, using Mud Slap.
In Arthur rushed and darted forward, "Clutch. Shield!"
Clutch tossed up Psychic, forming a barrier of psychic energy in front of them as the 3 charged forward, it proved to be a highly effective ramming weapon as several grunts got knocked out of the way before they could even open their pokeballs.
At the end of a hall was another Grunt, who had a Venusaur out, "Cayde, Metal Claw!"
Cayde leaped off of Clutch and slashed repeatedly at the Venusaur, Clutch disengaged his shield and Arthur picked up speed.
To the Grunt, all he could see was a rather large man in green armor charging straight at him, he could almost hear metal guitars, before he felt a kick to his chest and he was launched into a door. Consciousness slipped from him, but he'd live, all that was left in his mind was the sight of the helmet and the green armor.
Another Grunt started to run and picked out their walkie talkie, "The Slayer has entered the building! I repeat, the Doom Slayer has entered the building!"
Arthur calmly walked up behind the Grunt, and proceeded to speak, "Doom Slayer? Is that what you call this look?"
The Grunt fainted as Arthur got close, he looked over to Cayde and Clutch, "Am I really that terrifying?"
<Honestly I just think they've been playing too many video games,> Cayde responded.

Tommy: For the record, we are not trying to follow you. We just wanted to see what the big deal is with this place.
Theodora: Best doughnut franchise in the world. Let no other savages tell you otherwise.
Dave, in his head: <Get out of my head. Mustn't tell him anything, mustn't tell him anything.>
Dave continues to attempt to ignore them and places his order.
Theodora: If that clanker isn't going to tell you anything, it might as well fall to me, then. Well, my father's first thesis basically sums it up. Time and reality form this vaguely ball-shaped ball of wibbly wobbly stuff, and knowing how to manipulate this can allow you to move forward and backwards in time and go sideways to the branches of the timelines. My father, of course, got a few of the details entertainingly wrong, but the core thesis was correct. This allowed me to not only develop time-travel technology back in the 90s, but also manipulate the space in the interiors so for more elbow room. What a gay time that was.
Theodora grinned mischievously but said nothing.
Theodora: Well, don't let the memories of the time I spent with Lord Myron and his business partner distract you.
Tommy: Just be glad she didn't say it out loud.
Theodora: Now, over the course of my travels, I found that several other people have uncovered the principles of time travel independently—such as this really charming eccentric man from 1980 and his apprentice. Further down, this organisation that David hailed from eventually decided that they should be the arbiters of the time stream.
Dave, from across the store: I can still hear you, Teddy. There are handcuffs here with your name on it!
Theodora: Alas, he still thinks he could coordinate a proper arrest. In truth, he's here for the same reason I am. Purchase doughnuts from this place. Constables of his rank are consigned to filching pastries and nonesuch from various periods for their nostalgic superiors.

Where should we meet up?

Apollo, to Dave: ~So, what are ya, some sort of time intern? Do you get dental insurance?~
Some Rando
Lumiose Base
Pandora flew in through a hole in the building, looking at the carnage presented to all of them, and taking a fair bit of notice at the Mobius Grunts.
<Black, and, white are, all I see...> she said sagely. <I’m waking up at the start of the end of the world.>
“Are these the ones responsible for the damages?” Gail asked rhetorically as a couple of grunts, and their two ‘mons, a Bayleef and a Klang, ran them down.
Sierra materialized and Flare Blitzed the steel-type into its trainer’s chest while Jamie appeared and Brave Birded the Bayleef off of the platform they stood on.
Tracing Pandora’s wings was an Aura Sphere, which she aimed at another grunt’s Pangoro.
“You guys have fun,” Gail decided as she leaped down from the balcony, catching a glimpse of the haggardly-breathing Bayleef. Yipes.

Dave, dipping a doughnut in coffee: Don't tell him anything.
PC, telepathically: <I don't see the point of doing so anymore. Theodora revealed everything. So, at this point they're just putting two and two together. I mean, it wasn't all that big a deal when people figured out that my ancestors in Unova came from another world. Though it also was kind of awkward when we were found to be easily stuffed into those Earthenoid ball things.>
Dave: It's not them believing any of this that worries me. I've been getting away with letting everyone else's weirdness filters kick in; nobody else will believe them; it's what my superiors would do to me if they found out that worries me.
Jonathan, from his pockets: You're going to have to answer to these guys eventually.
PC: <I concur. Besides, you're letting her do all the talking; this is a public relations disaster. You're gonna have to speak up.>
Jonathan, mentally: <Yes, he is an 'intern,' of a sort; a private with one of the divisions of the IDPD. Usually, he's assigned to field errands but we do have jurisdictions to make arrests. I understand that we told you that we had nothing to do with your costumed kidnappers, but at the time we were under the impression that we were the only IDPD operatives here.>
Dave, mentally: <And are you serious about trusting your new friend there? She's done nothing but frame the truth in a way that makes her look good since she arrived. Do you think we chase after these miscreants because we want to keep time travel to ourselves?>

Theodora: Well, it's more complicated than that, see...
Dave, mentally but loud so that Ivan couldn't understand what Theodora was talking about: <I come from a dystopian future where criminals travel to the past and cause all sorts of crap. Recently we discovered a certain international team had been housing a wanted time traveler and notorious criminal. We will stop at nothing to apprehend them... and yeah, the key word is dystopian future. This place plus McDonald's all went out of business, and we couldn't even find all the ingredients if we tried because of broken production chains and such. Also, the time cops have an excellent dental plan.>
Dave flashes a smile, showing 32 perfectly straight, shiny teeth. They're also completely natural, judging by his aura, one of the few body parts he has that are.
Theodora: ... and that is why making your father not a clown will eventually cause that crime lord Giovanni to drive Dratini to extinction, dooming us all.
Tommy: Okay, that made so much sense.

Brie: Oh! Hi Kai!
Ever: And bye Kai~
-how on earth did they leave that fast-

Brie: Alright! Too bad I didn't borrow Ever's arm; we could really go fast.
-she sends out Skyfire-
Skyfire: <Afternoon.>

<Hello, Kai. Treating Brie well, I hope.>
Brie: Easy, 'fire.
-she strokes the Charizard's neck-
Up for a two-person flight?
Skyfire: <How long are we talking?>
Brie: Just Celadon.
Skyfire: <Sounds good.>
-Brie climbs on, and Skyfire gives Kai a hard look-
Skyfire: <Mind you don't get up to any funny business while I can't see you, yeah?>
Brie: I'm taking them to meet my actual parents; I don't need this from you.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Kai: Oh, come on, we're not rude, of course we're not going to do anything behind your back.
-They smirk, and reach into the inside of their jacket to detach the Key Stone from the Rainbow Wing dec pinned to the inside.-
Kai: Anyway, if we wanna go fast, that's still an option.
-They climb onto Brie's back, slip the Key Stone into her hand, wrap their arms around her waist to hold on, and kiss her cheek, grinning.-
Kai: Just don't lose it.

Brie: Oh!
-she grins wickedly-
That works, then. Hold on tight, and don't mind the fire.
Skyfire: <3...2...>
-there's a whistling boom and a brief moment of shocking heat, and just as fast it's gone, and Skyfire, Brie and Kai on her back, is arcing through the Kanto sky, clouds vaporizing in her wake-
Skyfire: <Er, blastoff.>
Brie: We never could time that right.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

-The trio splits.-
-Kaiiseii meets up with Isbrand.-
-Shaun heads deeper into the facility.-
-Elizabeth slips away, also heading deeper in.-
-Kaiiseii tosses Isbrand her katana and flicks his wrist out, extending a telescoping weapon that looks like a cross between a cattle prod and a mace. The twins take up a Back-to-Back Badasses position.-
Isbrand: "Rip and tear?"
Kaiiseii: "Burn and pillage."
-Shaun tosses three Poké Balls into the air, releasing a Gallade, Empoloen, and Goomy.-
Tsunami: <Finally, some action.>
-She, of course, immediately starts fighting the biggest, most dangerous mon - an Employee's Mega Aggron.-
~Shall you deal with that Timburr or shall I?~
Shaun: "Ryū ga waga teki wo kurau!"
-He fires an arrow with an attached Goomy.-
Lyra: <All the fighting's back there!>
-Elizabeth simply hands Naganadel Thyme and holds Rosemary at the ready.-
Elizabeth: "You'll get a fight soon enough..."
