ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

-Pollen and Barb enter, both giving a nod of thanks to Mira for letting them in. The two then bow before Artemis.-

Pollen: <My Queen. We sincerely thank you for allowing us to see you.>

Barb: <Indeed.>

-The two stand up again.-

Pollen: <But we would like to bring a very important matter to your attention.>

Barb: <Yes. We have recently discovered something very disconcerting about one of the members of that so called "Resistance.">

Pollen: -Nods.- <Now, my queen, do you know of The Bird?>

Artemis: <Yes, I believe I have heard of him. He's one of the highest ranked members of that Resistance, isn't he? Assuming they have ranks, that is.> (shrugs) <Anyways, what is it that you have to report?>

-Bisharp is sitting alone in a dank, dark room. There is a wheel spinning in front of him that he's holding his arm blade against-

-After a while he inspects it-

Bisharp: <Nice and sharp, yes...>

Pollen: <Well, my Queen. We recently tailed him as he was visiting the Dragon Spiral Tower, along with a ragtag bunch of misfits that appear to be his friends.>

Barb: <It was there, my Queen, that we found out something about The Bird that may threaten everything that we have worked for.>

Pollen: <The Bird...May be legendary Hero of Truth.>

Barb: <Not only that, but he has the Light Stone, too.>

Pollen: <My Queen, if he manages to get the Yang Dragon to recognize him as her hero...> -Pollen shakes her head.- <There would be nothing we could do to stop them. It wouldn't matter if we sent all of our forces after them. The fact is, My Queen, that we cannot kill a God.>

-has been wandering around some more-

Lostlorn Forest...this is where I caught Nylon!

-lets her out-

Remember? You tried to bite my head, and I ended up chasing you halfway across the forest?

Nylon: <Yeah...that was fun.>

-The two of us are lost in nostalgia-

Artemis: <What? The Resistance has the Light Stone, and possibly the Hero of Truth on their side!?>

Mira: <... The Light Stone...? That is impossible... I thought...>

Artemis: <Hmm... This is bad. Really bad. We can not let them get the dragon on their side!>

Flygon: <Wow it took me this long to remember her now! I cant believe I left Daisy to the Fearow!>

-flygon looks at unova-

I better get to her soon. I bet shes angry I left her.

-flygon flies to unova-

Pollen: <Our point exactly, my Queen. Now, apparently the Bird has left the Light Stone at The Dragon Spiral Tower for the time being.>

Barb: <Trying to attack that place would be suicide. Not only would it break the agreement with the Pokémon there, it may also push them into siding with the Resistance.>

Pollen: <The forces at that tower are fifteen-thousand strong, consisting of such strong Pokémon as Golett and Golurk, Druddigon, Meinfoo and Mienshao and even Dragonite!>

Barb: <Not to mention that they have a Mienshao known only as "The Blue Death." A Pokemon that has single handily managed to kill seven hundred and five of our troops!>

Pollen: <But even so. If the Bird does wake the Dragon, it's very likely the Dragon Spiral Pokémon will side with him anyway.>

Barb: <We must prevent him awakening the Dragon at all costs. By any means necessary.>

Artemis: (nods) <Yes, of course.>

Mira: <... What about... the Dark Stone? Has... anyone discovered the Dark Stone's whereabouts?>

Pollen: <Oh yes...The Yang Dragon's counterpart.>

Barb: <As far as I know, the Dark Stone's whereabouts are currently unknown.>

Pollen: <I see where you're coming from though. If one of our own were to find the Stone and awaken the Yin Dragon...>

-Pollen grins evily.-

Pollen: <...No-one would be able to stand against us.>

-gets up and walks to the gym-

-Is pacing-

Alright, so where do we go next?

Artemis: (smirks) <Yes, that is true... We should send a team to find the Dark Stone.> (to Mira) <I'm sure you can tell said team where they should try looking for it, right?>

Mira: <... Yes, my queen. I suppose...>

Artemis: (smiles) <And that is why you are my personal assistant and bodyguard, the one I trust the most.>

Mira: <Thank you, my queen. That means a lot to me.>

Hey star where are we going?

-After a long day of biking, Gamer walks into the Nacrene City Gym, solves the puzzle, and heads into Lenora's Gym.

-is skirting Nimbasa, trying to figure out if it's currently being patrolled without actually entering-

Daisy, Star's in Mistralon. She left last night.

-Gets into one of the cannons and is launced across the gym-

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!

Pollen: <Excellent. As a back-up plan, however, we may have a way to "Persuade" The Bird to give the Stone to us.>

Barb: <Yes. There is this Ampharos that he seems to care for very much. If we were to take her hostage...>

Pollen: <...He would have to give us the stone. Unless he would like to see his girfriend slowly poisoned to death by Barb., here.>

Barb: -Buzzes happily.- <Indeed.>

I use offscreen following.

Artemis: <Ah, a classic! An important item in exchange for a hostage!>

Mira: <Do not underestimate your opponents, however.>

Daisy, you need to tell me if you're going to do something like that first, Ok? I don't want anyone with Star right now.

-gets inside another cannon-

Pollen: <Of course, My Queen. You were always were well versed in tropes...>

Barb: <Well then. Me and Pollen will take some of our troops and attempt to capture the Sheep.>

Pollen: <While you shall begin the search for the Dark Stone, I presume.>

Artemis: <Yes... It seems we have a lot of work ahead of us.> (to Mira) <So... You know what to do?>

Mira: (nods) <Yes, figure out how to best deal with that traitor in Undella town, and organize a team to find the Dark Stone.>

Artemis: <Excellent.>

Pollen: <Fine then, my Queen. It was an honor speaking to you.>

-Pollen and Barb both bow.-

Barb: <Now, if you'll excuse us, we have a Sheep we need to catch.>

Pollen: <We'll show ourselves out. Farewell.>

-The two bugs leave the throne room.-

Barb: <Oh, I can still kill the Sheep after he's given us the stone, yes?>

Pollen: <Yes, Barb. Of course.>

Barb: -Grins.- <Excellent.>

-"Lenora" and "Skyla" are waiting for their respective trainers-
