THE LEAGUE HEADQUARTERS


[attr="class","aname2"]
BATTLEFRONT #1



[attr="class","ipad"]
DESCRIPTION
[break][break]

00:00: the most difficult challenge. there are several league headquarters throughout hoenn and one is conveniently in slateport. the headquarters is a large and lavish establishment, with many glass offices. in the center of the front lobby, a marble milotic fountain gracefully spouts water. toward the back, a grand staircase grants access to the upper second and third floors. the third floor houses the offices of the most important officials- and a visiting league commissioner.[break][break]

notes:[break]
- this thread is styled as a traditional battle thread.[break]
- you can pretend that there are already npc league members and rocket members battling inside.[break]
- you may roleplay as if you were in the building already at the time of the attack. [break][break]

OBJECTIVES
[break][break]
LEAGUE:[break]
a) stop rocket from seizing control of the headquarters.[break]
b) protect the league commissioner dahlia and other high ranking officials.[break][break]
ROCKET:[break]
a) seize control of the headquarters.[break]
b) capture the league commissioner dahlia and other high ranking officials.[break][break]
[break][break]

[break][break]


[break][break]

GUIDELINES:
[break][break]
  • this is an invasion event, marking rocket's first deliberate attack on the region. be dramatic, make it tense, and battle!
  • for plot purposes, rocket will be successful in the overall invasion, but the league can potentially prevail in a thread.
  • you have a choice of which battlefront you want to participate in. do you join the thread where your character and their pokemon can play to their strengths, or do you join a thread to even out the numbers for your faction?
  • you can only put one character in each thread. however, since the threads all happen at the same time, you can move your character to a different thread if you so wish, but please consult staff before doing that.
  • you can only bring six pokemon; three pokemon out at one time.
  • your pokemon can only do two actions per pokemon per mod round.
  • there's a forty-eight hour posting rule before every mod round.
  • you can only post three times per character in each mod round.

The fighting had already begun by the time he had arrived. An SOS signal flared for every member of the League to go towards Slateport City, and being in nearby Mauville, he was only late by a bare few moments. Most of the members were grunts, with a bare few pokemon incapable of fighting, and his Salamence easily made work of those who did not have their skills cut out for a main invasion. [break][break]

He enjoyed it, as much as he would hate to admit, there was a certain catharsis in eliminating mass faces of Team Rocket, for no other reason than the fact that they were there. His Gardevoir could sense his emotions getting out of pace and telepathically reminded him to maintain his focus. The headquarters were being decimated by the ensuing chaos, for now the Rockets were baraely getting past the main entrance, and those that were were being repelled backwards. [break][break]

Regardless, this battle was a blessing in disguise for him. It had been some time since he'd stretched his legs in a full Pokemon battle. His Cofagrigus remained steadily by both Gardevoir and Teddy, ready to act on anticipation.[break][break]

"battle routine set."

they come in droves, endless delinquents dare to try and intrude on the league headquarters. it had been by chance that fernando found himself in the vicinity, visiting during the wee hours of the night to deliver various papers to the league. something about officiating his bid for something more, for a change of pace. the fact that a certain individual now resided here would only serve as an additional perk. two birds with one stone.

"execute."

mass numbers do not make up for ability. the league is not so feeble that they cannot defend their home. the series of them set up a perimeters, beating back anyone who dares to come forward. fernando finds himself among them, restraining his pokemon to prevent collateral damage. bronzong stays by his backside, sluggish compared to the sceptile and mimikyu that make up his vanguard. he'll have to rely on them, physical attackers, to keep from causing unneeded friendly fire in such close quarters.

the formation is set and fernando finds himself beating back anyone who dares get in his way. they're starting to lose ground but they will not fold. not this quickly. not without spilling blood in return. officials from all ranks find their place on the field. fernando recognizes very few of them but the sight of @thermopylae is a welcomed sight. another salamence on the field compliments the one that remains idle on his waist.

it isn't long before they establish a solid footing on the ground floor.

  

≫ here since the start
≫ left papers / visit someone
≫ fighting alongside @thermopylae to establish control over first floor

"jet, tamara, we need to go!" panic leaks through the otherwise commanding words as his croconaw and altaria face off with an arbok and weezing. rocket numbers are rising at the entrance of the building as more members seem to materialize out of thin air, leaving zeke rainey outnumbered and at a massive disadvantage.

the unexpected nature of the attack has left him in a fearful state as the threat of rocket suddenly solidifies into something legitimate and present in hoenn. he will not make the same mistakes he made in kanto years ago. tamara unleashes a dragon pulse strong enough to blow both enemy pokemon back. "Now!" pokemon on his heels, he bursts through the front door and is met with another wave of battle. bodies of trainers, rockets, and pokemon are strewn across the ground in the hallways and in the grand entrance, the evidence of the massacre that he'd sworn only just began.

gambling comes to mind; what brings silph's words to the forefront of his consciousness remains a mystery for now as he shoves past a rocket member, trying to get deeper into the facility where league members are surely more concentrated. his life is, again, at stake, and he is more comfortable here than he was at the pachinko machine with someone else's money. flashes of past battles in similar situations plague him as a hydro pump blasts past him.

blue hair -- that explains the gambling. "silph. thank fuck." saying the name unleashes a wave of catharsis -- he is no longer one man against a million. zeke's towering form passes the sceptile and mimikyu and finally halts next to . another man he does not recognize is nearby.

"there's a lot more just outside the entrance." his hands fall to his knees as he catches his breath.

     


- was outside the league HQ for some reason.
- fought jessie and james knock offs.
- ran inside and found and @thermopylae .
- altaria and croconaw active.

There is no time for internal squabbles when Slateport is under siege.

Whatever issues that Ian has with Dahlia, they can be resolved once her life is not in immediate danger. God, he hopes that the woman is at least smart enough to hang back.

The only thing that he can think about: What the fuck were the watchers at the shore doing? Weren’t they paid to prevent this exact situation from happening? Did someone lay the red carpet out for Team Rocket? A Golbat very nearly cuts his head off, and Ian stops thinking about those irrelevant things altogether.

“I’m way ahead of you, Rainey.” Ian dashes to the front of the building. He will not be a figurehead when his enemy is upon his doorstep. Gigalith is slow, but his power over rock isn't. He creates an arena near the entrance with Stealth Rock.

“Arachne, seal the entrance! Use Spider Web and Toxic Thread!” The Ariados gets to work quickly. Webbing builds up across the door in seconds, and she works diligently to reinforce the net. Before long, not even a Rhyhorn would be able to escape her weaving. Especially when the humans and Pokemon that tried to break through only ended up poisoned on contact.

Arachne is a wicked thing. She weaves the trapped Rockets into her craft, hovering over them until they can move no more. Before long, she has about five Rockets and four Pokemon trapped in her web.

“More, Arachne. Did I tell you that you could rest?” Ian gestures towards the approaching Rockets before yelling into his Pokenav. “I’ve sealed the doorway for now. If anyone is still coming to headquarters, then this is your chance for a pincer attack.”

Some of the Rockets become delirious from the poison. “Boss would haul you over the coals for doing this to us,” one of them hisses before their face goes numb.

“Well.” Ian narrows his eyes. “Either he kills all of you to get to me, or you buy me another half hour.” Either way, Ian wins. It’s time to see if their leader's famous humanism stood up to actual fire and steel.

The Rockets that are trapped inside are still ready and willing to engage. Ian takes cover near his Gigalith. "Iron Defense, Atlas. We'll see how long they'll last against us."


• acknowledges and goes to the entrance
• seals off the main door with ariados' spider web and toxic thread
• traps a lot of rockets, web shouldn't hold up to consistent special attacks against it, but the trapped rockets will very likely die
• gigalith sets stealth rock and iron defense
• ian ducks behind gigalith

A young girl would sit in the corner, watching chaos unfold as a lunchbox sat in front if her spilled over, her hands firmly placed over her ears to shield them from the loud noises that shot through the air. Tears fell from her eyes as she watched, in a squatting fetal position. How did she even end up here? She just wanted to bring her mother a home cooked meal.

Well, that was the guise anyways. There was no mother, it was all just a facade to mask her true intentions, get in, capture the commissioner, and get out. Hopefully she would be able to make it through this without roughing up some fools along the way.

But for now, she had to play the victim as well as she could, until she could successfully be escorted to safety and get them to lose track of her.

• squatting in fetal position in a corner of the room
• spilled food in front of her
• waiting for a good opportunity to “get to safety”
y’all are gonna scare off all the other rockets with your big boy pokemon

oh boy. look at all those defenses! look at all those fortifications! the league surely was full of some of the finest, most efficient individuals, capable of -- lololololol what a joke. the league ain't SHIT. at least, not in the eyes of the girl with a sigilyph clamped to her back, and a porygon-z and a vikavolt on either arm.[break][break]

floating around five stories high in the sky over the league headquarters, tiamat looked around at all the chaos, all the busy little ants underneath her, both rocket and league. damn, this shit was wiiiild lmao. but she got bread to make tho.[break][break]
tiamat outstretched her arms...[break][break]
and t-posed.[break][break]
(ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE)[break][break]
and then, the porygon-z whisked across the air in front of her, before locking on to the second floor specifically, aimed directly where the stairs would be. after all, this was a fairly simple building to understand; at least, during the briefings, it was. and... well, she played enough fortnite to know where to break a building.[break][break]
"yeet."[break][break]
a hyper beam pierced the eastern wall of the second floor, before erratically scrambling and spouting all over the structure before fading, causing rubble to collapse and stairs to crumble. screams erupted from that part of the building as the metal infrastructure was all that remained to keep the building standing. after all, brick was easier to destroy than steel, in her beloved battle royale game.[break][break]
tiamat admired her handiwork and dabbed.

[break][break]
tl;dr: tiamat, floating five stories high, aimed her porygon-z exactly where the stairs would be on the second floor using lock on, and used hyper beam to demolish the east wall and cause rubble to blockade whatever remained of the stairs. she then dabbed.

Earphones on, with Bee Gees on, Lucas strutted his way through the crowd, each step following the song's beat. What a night indeed.

His salamence, being able to FLY, hovered just at the same level @names were. However, the true purpose of the salamence was to give his claydol a platform to hover at. As salamence hovered steadily, the claydol could be found hovering right on top of it.

Lucas whistled as he made a downward ark with his hand, as his hand reached the bottom of the arc, Lucas vocalized a noise akin to the sound of an explosion.

The salamence got into position, hovering directly over the structure, maintaining a height of a few meters higher than the structure. The claydol on top of salamence knew exactly what to do, it looked down to the side of the salamence it rode by tilting its body and fired off a HYPER BEAM going through the middle of the structute, straight down piercing through from the very roof.

    Several stones start to erupt from the ground. Atlas' Stealth Rock activates quietly, a silent killer.

    Large jagged rocks tear through all enemy Pokemon.


    • stealth rock hits 's and @names 's siglyph, vikavolt, and salamence for super effective damage
    • stealth rock hits @names 's porygon-z for normal damage
    • stealth rock hits 's claydol for not very effective damage

    Despite all her training; the months of missions and adventures out in the wilderness, her reckless desire for adrenaline and danger, it feels strangely surreal to be in the middle of an invasion. She had been walking up the stairs when an explosion rocked through the building. The attack was wholly unexpected, and Emma stumbles through the dust and debris, running up to find the perpetrator.

    There are pokemon flying through the air. Hyperbeams sprout from their backs, and marble crumbles under such power. Rockets swarm around the perimeter; their strength may be in numbers but the rockets have forgotten that they're attacking a fortress. Emma hurries to the building's temporary partition, taking her defense to the air.

    They may have the element of surprise, but an aerial assault can be easily negated. She releases her Talonflame, channeling a TAILWIND, providing support for the rangers. Speed lowered above and below, rockets will find it hard to move against headwinds.

    "Keep them out of the air."

    These pokemon may have powerful attacks, but without support they're vulnerable. Her Talonflame charges at the Sigilyphand Porygon-Z, and easy and slow target. With fiery wings, it dives at the pair of pokemon, a FLAME CHARGE bound to at least distract them from their attack.

    Her Electivire calls THUNDER from the skies, aiming it at the Salamance. Claydol's heavy disposition should be able to slow it despite it's speed. And if not, a THUNDER WAVE will suffice in taking it out of the sky; she'll find joy in taking them out like flies.



    TAILWIND is in effect

    talonflame uses FLAME CHARGE at the sigilyph

    electivire uses THUNDER and THUNDERWAVE against the salamance

    emma defends the second floor.

    is a familiar face. one that will find himself aiding silph instead of opposing him. this time, rocket came unannounced, unplanned. that is why fernando attacks in earnest, ready to tear down an opposition that dares to intrude without his consultation. unless an opportunist moment presents itself, fernando will live tonight as a loyal member of the league. tonight will be the night that cements an alliance between heroes and unknown villains. so when zeke suggests there's more outside, fernando is the first to entertain the idea; they're going outside to greet them.

    are you a gambling man?

    leaving his post inside may prove disastrous but fernando has misplaced faith on those inside. surely the league has at least a few capable members, ones that would undoubtedly serve as nightly security. if not, they're fucked, but that's none of his concern. it's too late. he's already outside, charging out from the opposite end of @yiannis 's expertly woven web. and, he's not a moment too soon. the HYPER BEAM that destroys the eastern wall makes contact no sooner than when fernando lays eyes on the pokemon that unleashed it. there's several of them, all airborne, all perfect for the pickings.

    "ANTI AERIAL UNITS!"

    tonight is a test of teamwork, a trial by fire to see if they can work amongst each other. they don't have to be perfect, just better than their opponents. that's why fernando is so uncharacteristically vocal. his pokemon are wise enough to operate with autonomy, tempered into intense situations that cost them their lives to ensure critical thinking during high pressure moments, but that doesn't mean the rest are. that's why he takes lead, following suite in the same manner of @yiannis . the rest of them are free to do as they see fit but if another set of HYPER BEAMS rock the foundation of their building then they may very well lose their point rally point.

    an odd sight, sure, but mimikyu has no problem playing COPYCAT. this allows the small, eight inch pokemon to FLY toward the enemies, soaring at an uncanny speed, all thanks to TAILWIND. the sheer ridiculousness of watching the pokemon soar is a great enough TAUNT to prevent the five from using any non-offense based moves. it's a dark trick and imposes itself by mystical, underhanded methods but it gets the job done. it allows the rest of his team to set up with bronzong's IMPRISON. fernando, an expert in physic based moves, knows well enough to have his bronzong's target their area, locking up his mimikyu by association. @devon 's talonflame will be an unfortunate victim too but that's the risk that comes with using physical attacks. it leaves you open to friendly fire. hopefully, she'll know better. only the bronzong knows for sure, steadying a FUTURE SIGHT on an unlucky victim. as for mimikyu, fernando's not too concerned. what seems like a perilous situation may prove the opposite. mimikyu's small, fragile stature is only a DISGUISE for the durable beast that resides underneath its tattered sheets.

    fernando recalls the sceptile because it's useless on the ground. it's quickly replaced by a glalie, one of the few pokemon he has that's able to contribute to their bombardment. from below, a tilted angle that doesn't quite conflict with the THUNDER that rains down from above, it fires off a condense spray of ICE SHARDS. their spread is concentrated on the large beasts that looms in the sky. the absolute speed of the projectiles make them a blur in the sky, transparent, clear, and neigh invisible against the darkness that looms around them. be careful not to move too fast salamence, you might just resign that claydol that relies on you to free-falling to its demise. but move too slow and you'll be subjected to a terrible onslaught of projectiles that proves four times effect.



      

    ≫ leaves the main building
    ≫ sees enemies + hyper beams 
    ≫ mimikyu FLYs up fast af because TAILWIND and TAUNTs salamence, claydol, porygon-z, sigilyph, vikavolt
    ≫ bronzong IMPRISONs salamence, claydol, porygon-z, sigilyph, vikavolt, talonflame, mimikyu
    ≫ none of the above can use PROTECT, EARTHQUAKE, BLOCK, EXPLOSION, IMPRISON, FUTURE SIGHT
    ≫ returns sceptile
    ≫ summon glalie + ice shard salamence + claydol (if salamence dodges since it's right above it)

    The chaos ensuing the following battle became intense in an almost immediate fashion, as multiple members of the League and Rockets of a higher caliber began to start acting upon their orders. Teddy had to make a quick decision as to how best to utilize his surroundings, as he had anticipated that this battle would become an ungodly mess of a fight. [break][break]

    His thoughts were disturbed however as Gardevoir, his telepath, identified multiple incoming threats from above and from the side that were charging up significant levels of energy. One from the side and one directly above overhead. Teddys Gardevoir this information with his existing Pokemon. As the beam moved to strike the lower ground, Teddy's Salamence jumped into its trajectory, emitting PROTECT, thereby shielding the blast from ever hitting the ground floor, not that it would have been particularly strong as it had gone through multiple layers of concrete and steel, but they were the League, and he was supposed to protect residents. [break][break]

    Then they had to deal with the collapsing rubble and concrete from the ensuing blast. Biscuit utilized PSYCHIC, to levitate the pieces of rubble from flattening anyone, lowering the chunks slowly onto the floor. "Biscuit, MISTY TERRAIN. Bagel, SCARY FACE." He ordered. Biscuit, the Gardevoir, then proceeded to project a field of iridescent rainbow that flooded the inside of the building and spread outwards to encapsulate the entire surrounding area. Now they didn't have to worry about status conditions. With the introduction of a face to face meeting with the Pokemon from above as well as the Pokemon that attacked the second floor, Bagel the Salamence emitted a vicious roar, projecting its visage into the minds of its opponents. The face to face meeting, however, did reduce its physical power, but Teddy had anticipated that this wasn't his Salamence's fight regardless. Now that they had their speed drastically reduced and distracted, the likelihood of escaping the Talonflame's FLAME CHARGE and the Electivire's THUNDER would be lower than before.[break][break]

    "Cogagrigus, Nasty Plot. Twice." On command, Cofagrigus would begin to channel, creating a red aura around itself. [break][break]


    TL:DR;

    • Gardevoir detects the dangers above and to the side from telepathy.
    • Salamence PROTECTs against the HYPER BEAM from above, defending the first floor.
    • Gardevoir uses PSYCHIC to safely lower the rubble, and uses MISTY TERRAIN around the building.
    • Salamence uses SCARY FACE on all surrounding opponents, lowering opponent SIGILYPH, VIKAVOLT, SALAMENCE, CLAYDOL and PORYGON-Z’s speed. Salamence’s INTIMIDATE also triggers, lowering attack of all above Pokemon.
    • Gardevoir, Salamence and Cofagrigus has attack lowered due to opponent INTIMIDATE.
    • Cofagrigus uses NASTY PLOT twice.

    tiamat then heard the whistling sound of oncoming projectiles, and immediately made to strafe, and try to shake them off. however, the sigilyph suddenly felt the slowing fear of scary face creep through it's system and the stealth rocks caught up to the trio of pokemon, bruising and scraping the porygon-z and vikavolt, while sigilyph's natural magic guard caused the rocks to bounce off harmlessly.[break][break]
    grunting from the scattering pebbles hitting her skin, tiamat turned her head to looked behind her as she strafed to the left, assessing the situation. urgh. stealth rocks-- two-- three people incoming? a burst of air suddenly blasted from behind her, and the blonde just cringed. that was a tailwind--[break][break]
    the oncoming flame charge hit, and the blonde was shaken out of her flight path, the sigilyph wobbling and dropping out of the sky. it was a direct hit. the vikavolt and porygon-z on her arms tried to make up for the weaker thrust on tiamat's back, and the blonde entered superman pose as she started to glide headfirst towards the glass windows of the third floor.[break][break]
    "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE--"[break][break]
    with porygon-z still incapacitated, the vikavolt took it upon itself to fire off a thunderbolt at the glass, heating up and shattering the crystal walls as tiamat eased to a rough landing on the third floor. tiamat grunted as she dusted off the broken glass on her dress. right. she wasn't flying anymore, so...[break][break]
    tiamat switched sigilyph out for her gurdurr, and switched her vikavolt out for her beedrill. cracking her neck, the blonde looked behind her real quick before getting right the fuck to business.[break][break]
    "oh boy, we're playing minecraft, gonna mine some walls! let's find those suits." [break][break]
    and with that, the gurdurr roared before using hammer arm on the nearest wall, immediately smashing through it with a ringing punch. gurdurr ripped through the rest of the drywall with it's sheer, raw forced, creating an entrance to the office hallways of the government building that tiamat sprinted through, her two pokemon following as she turned a corner and entered the building as a whole.[break][break]
    (porygon-z was still attached to her arm, recovering from hyper beam.)

    silas' words ring coldly, like rotting tree rings. the storm has finally come. the commissioner forces his voice to the background, and in the unnerving vacuum, concern floods forth.

    first, she thinks of @yiannis. despite his brash nature, she knows he'd be on the frontlines- she swears she can hear him bark orders. but she realizes it's her own, directing others to safety.

    @names's gurdurr announces itself with the HAMMER ARM. raising an arm for cover, dahlia stumbles as a scream of glass shatters nearby. some shards scrape across her cheek, sewing in red.

    she stares back to see a child. but she doesn't question the matter. with a huff, dahlia begins to run with one hand on a pokeball.

    tl;dr - is spotted by tiamat when her gurdurr smashes into the office hallway

    SUMMARY
    [break][break]

    • @thermopylae remains on standby with his cofagrigus and gardevoir.
    • fights by @thermopylae, sending mimikyu and sceptile ahead with bronzong behind to secure the first floor.
    • defeats some grunts before joining up with and @thermopylae.
    • @yiannis seals off the door with ariados' SPIDER WEB and TOXIC THREAD, trapping several rockets. he communicates this to the other league members. he takes cover under his gigalith after setting up with STEALTH ROCK and IRON DEFENSE.
    • pretends to be a victim, crying for help.
    • @names floats around with her sigilyph like the memer she is. porygon-z attempts to HYPER BEAM the second floor after LOCKING-ON.
    • enters with the beat of the bee gees. he's hovering at the same level as @names with his salamence. the claydol on top of the salamence fires a HYPER BEAM through the middle of the structure and straight down from the roof.
    • @yiannis' stealth rocks activate on and @names' porygon-z, claydol, sigilyph, vikavolt and salamence.
    • @devon's talonflame channels a TAILWIND for the rangers. the talonflame uses FLAME CHARGE at @names' sigilpyh. her electivire uses THUNDER and THUNDERWAVE against 's salamence while she defends the second floor.
    • 's mimikyu FLIES up and attempts to TAUNT salamence, claydol, porygon-z, sigilyph and vikavolt; his bronzong attempts to IMPRISON, affecting salamence, claydol, porygon-z, sigilyph, vikavolt, talonflame, and mimikyu. until bronzong is defeated, you cannot use PROTECT, EEARTHQUAKE, BLOCK, EXPLOSION, IMPRISON, FUTURE SIGHT.; his sceptile is returned for glalie who aims an ICE SHARD against salamence or claydol.
    • @thermopylae's salamence PROTECTS against the HYPER BEAM from above. gardevoir uses PSYCHIC to safely lower the rubble, then MISTY TERRAINS around the building. salamence's SCARY FACE lowers sigilyph, vikavolt, salamence, claydol, and porygon-z's speed and also lowers their attack with INTIMIDATE. confagrigus uses NASTY PLOT.
    • @names crashes through the third floor window. recalls sigilyph for gurdurr, vikavolt for beedrill. gurdurr breaks a hole into the hallways with HAMMER ARM, which tiamat sprints into, out of view.
    • runs away from @names :LUL:
    [break][break]


    [break][break]

    REACTIONS
    [break][break]

    • @names: your porygon-z HYPER BEAMS the second floor/stairs but before much damage can be done, it's interrupted by @yiannis' STONE EDGE, though not before it leaves a massive hole on the side of the building, leading right onto the second floor.
    • : claydol suffers the same fate: its HYPER BEAM looks to rip through the middle of the building but is stopped by the STONE EDGE. damage is only done to the top floor.
    • @yiannis: you seal the door with webbing - some rocket are trapped in it and end up dying. the door stays sealed for now as some rocket forces are trying to knock the door down.
    • @thermopylae: MISTY TERRAIN surrounds the building, giving the near vicinity a slight shade of pink as the battle continues.
    • all: the rocket still trapped inside continue to resist, battling with volatile moves that look to wreak havoc. more reinforcements are coming and the sticky webbing from @yiannis won't last for long.
    [break][break]

    the craziest of the bunch: attack after attack, counter after counter, the battle rages not only on the inside, but also the outside as people circle atop their flying beasts. despite the attacks to its structural integrity the building is heavily fortified, and is stronger than it looks. the league resists, giving hope in an otherwise bleak situation.[break][break]

    for now, they hold. but reinforcements are coming and the rocket that are trapped inside won't go down without a fight; they know what happens if they give up. they've given up too much to surrender, and this makes them dangerous.[break][break]

    notes:[break]
    - switching pokemon will take one action from both pokemon switching out and switching in.[break]
    - players should decide amongst themselves what hits and what doesn't. be reasonable and communicate![break]
    - moderators will determine environmental damage.[break][break]
