"— wait."[break][break]

he doesn't mean to interrupt his superior but there's no mistaking what he felt: the tremor in the ground, faint at first, and then another, and another, each harsher than the last.[break][break]

"something's approaching."[break][break]

his cacturne's SANDSTORM rises, but that may hinder them just as much as whatever it is that's coming.[break][break]

he's about to tell her that it's a bad idea to split up, at least in his opinion given the circumstances, but she finishes her thought with what he wants to say.[break][break]

despite his attempted cool demeanor, he can't help but feel anxious as well as they start making their way through the weeds. he calls out his wugtrio, though finds little comfort in its presence.[break][break]

"no clue."[break][break]

he keeps talking.[break][break]

"leadership retreat, maybe?"[break][break]

both dane and kirlia squint in response to the sudden SUNNY DAY that blinds them. as temperatures begin to rise around them, he knows the battle is about to be just as intense.[break][break]

"like the planet."[break][break]

his expression must have betrayed him.[break][break]

feeling empowered by the SUNNY DAY, kirlia lets loose a wave of pink MYSTICAL FIRE.[break][break]

technically, she outranks him, but the hierarchy has proven flexible in his experience, and only really needed to be maintained when in the presence of the upper brass. there are exceptions, of course, but from what he can tell, nina doesn't seem like the type to care.[break][break]

"maybe start outside, then work our way in?"[break][break]

he doesn't need to check his phone to know sundown approaches. they have a little under an hour remaining.[break][break]

"would be tougher to spot people in the dark later."[break][break]

he nods. "true." but as he finishes moving yet another piece of debris just so they can have a clearer path to gods know where, he can't help but long for their guide.[break][break]

a few more minutes pass before he interrupts the silence again with another question.[break][break]

"do all megalopolans eat human?"[break][break]

in all honesty, dane could not care less about the missing upper brass as he knows they'd simply be replaced. kanto would send whoever they deemed capable, and the wheels would continue to turn as though they'd never stopped in the first place.[break][break]

but, for obvious reasons, his thoughts are kept to himself.[break][break]

much to his distaste, he arrives on the back of his altaria, cotton ball, only to immediately recall the flying-type the moment they land.[break][break]

"hey, sorry i'm late." he'd been trying to find another means of transportation but the idea of booking a corviknight taxi on behalf of team rocket felt wrong. "i'm dane."[break][break][break][break]

with a nod, he waits for her to take the first step before doing the same. he falls into the same rhythm as her, straying close to her side as they make their way out of the hotel and onto the streets of lilycove.[break][break]

"what time do you need to get back by?"[break][break]

he asks, curious.[break][break]

"i assume you work the nights, too. at least when your parents need you to."[break][break]

he nods even if he's unsure if he'd ever show Frank Caffey the intricacies of utilizing a SANDSTORM. that's part of what makes him valuable as an asset, after all, and sharing that may very well hinder him.[break][break]

after they've loaded up the van, dane turns to the two unconscious rangers as well before shrugging.[break][break]

"i'm not much into killing."[break][break]

more into respecting the dead, as evident by his role as groundskeeper at mount pyre.[break][break]

"location's compromised, anyway. might as well leave them here."[break][break]

"fine."[break][break]

that's what he wanted, anyway, as she's always been more of a foodie than him. he eats clean and healthy but that's mostly a guise to cover up his lack of interest in deciding what to eat on a daily basis. it's easier to meal prep and eat that to save himself the trouble.[break][break]

with their first real talk over, dane signs the apartment the next day.[break][break]

for moments, he weighs the pros and cons of sharing with someone who remains a stranger, a colleague at best, but he figures it's a good step towards making an ally.[break][break]

"i only ever use my cacturne, so i've learned how to fight with him."[break][break]

he raises his hands and gestures in vague, sliding movements as though it'd help with his explanation.[break][break]

"there are pockets within the sandstorm you can use to cover your movement. slip away when the sand thins, and ta-da, you've disappeared."[break][break]

it's only when he shakes her hand does he clock their height difference. he doesn't mind it much; he's grown used to being taller than average, but in hoenn, it seems as though he's only average amongst the men.[break][break]

his hand falls back to his side. he chuckles at her altaria, then shifts his gaze back to her to quip a joke.[break][break]

"what's wrong with mauville hills?"[break][break]

he cocks his head even though he knows the luxury apartments are more so meant for boujee people, and dane is far from being that. he can afford it because he doesn't spend his money on much, and after years of serving team rocket in johto, he's racked up his savings.[break][break]

"make sure you bring dinner with you when you do."[break][break]

because it's most likely her that would get sick of him. but he's also hoping that doesn't actually happen because then she'd find out just how little he's in mauville.[break][break][break][break]

like the pog bank ceo…dane leaves this unsaid, however, as he doesn't want to brag about his extensive knowledge of hoenn lore, having familiarized himself shortly before his move.[break][break]

"dane," he gestures at his kirlia, "lady jessica."[break][break]

with a nod, they begin their training.[break][break]

the giggle kepler heard now travels to their fennekin, kirlia's ALLURING VOICE seeking to draw it close.[break][break]

without their friendly megalopolan guide, traversing through the city proves more challenging than last time. thankfully, they're intuitive enough to make use of the debris-based canyons, utilizing them as cover as they make their way towards the middle of the city.[break][break]

still, it's a long walk, and they'll have much time to kill.[break][break]

"i was hoping we'd run into them again."[break][break]

he says as he moves debris to the side.[break][break]

25 clear barricades, fencing, or other megalopolan-made obstacles to create possible escape routes, make traversal easier, etc.

27 make use of vast of debris-based canyons, valleys, or tunnels created by guzzlord having eaten through city districts.

28 encounter gargantuan guzzlord who devour anything or anyone without discrimination. occasionally intriguing items, or disturbing remnants from their meals can be found on or between their teeth.

29 become ensnared by a guzzlord's pincer like tongue that undulates to draw you and/or your pokemon within its endless gut.

🗺️ SPECIAL HUNT: DANE FAIRCHILD will be able to encounter and catch a GUZZLORD or BLACEPHALON (one or the other). they may be armored or embedded with BLACK METAL &/OR SPARKLING STONES. this material may allow them to unleash devastating Z-MOVES, which makes their subduing and/or capture notoriously difficult. afterward, the material will fall from their bodies as defunct scraps.

Or you may encounter and catch a POIPOLE that is local to the area. You may be able to discover a POIPOLE EGG, or are able to capture or captivate one to your ownership.
