The seeds were exploding, their vines erupting from their shell. Where most people would be scared, horrified or running for dear life, Tsubasa was showing a smile filled with curiosity. "Fascinating. Frost, interrupt one of those seeds and bring it to me.". The Dewgong nodded at his master's odd request, firing Ice Shards upon the path to cancel the explosion of the seeds and possibly even freeze them. Doing so allowed the scientist to collect one and stash it in his side pouch.[break][break]

The group continued their progress through the forest, ignoring the Megalopolans that might sight them. They had one target in mind: reaching the portal that could be gazed at from a distance. And reaching it they did. At the same time as one of the councilman and a no name trainer.[break][break]

While said nameless trainer began to attack the megalopolans, Tsubasa disembarked his Porygon. As he raised his head, he heard shout orders to destroy the machine, making the scientist panic slightly as he raised a hand to try and stop the man. "WAIT!... Damn it. CELL! SNATCH THE STONE FROM THE MACHINE BEFORE IT'S LOST!"[break][break]

The Reuniclus' eyes shone brightly as it used its psychic powers, extending invisible hands to try and remove the stone from the machine, to give it to the scientist. An uncommon way to use Snatch. But in the end, was it not stealing something benefic to the aliens? Thus, it should technically work... right?[break][break]

"00, 02. Clear them out." Tsubasa sounded slightly mad. If that attacked had prevented him from getting anything worthwhile, then he would've came here for no reasons. Feeling their owner's anger, the two porygons both decided to use Tri-Attack to try and clear everyone out. Of course, while the main targets remained the Megalopolans, the league members might still be struck. A regrettable casualty, which the man didn't care about.

[attr="class","illie i"]chaos continues to erupt the further they drift into the warzone that has become meteor falls. she isn't even sure where to look anymore. perhaps there's no clear direction but forward? who knows... what she does know is that those around them are caught up in attacks and fast. scales begin to form quicker than the last wave, shimmering pink and spreading from both the scientist and tapu lele. together, they spread their scales across the vicinity, healing distributed to those nearest.

as if spurred on by the healing role its trainer has placed herself into, the galarian ponyta at illeana's side ushers out a heal pulse toward the nearest pokemon. there's too many moving bodies to tell who the heal pulse hits but it pulsates away in a soft glow of pink. the scientist's cofagrigus tries to help their advance continue, phantom force knocking away approaching megathings. the alcremie sticks close to both avatar and legendary, the dessert pokemon kept safe from harm for now.

the temperature begins to drop suddenly, a blizzard conjured up without remorse. a shiver runs down her spine and really, she can't tell if it's the temperature or the atmosphere that causes it. whatever it is? she hates it. alakazam tries its best to direct the freezing gusts away from their party with the help of psychic. even if the psychic type manages to guide the gusts away, she can still feel the steady cold creeping into her bones. an eerie feeling, almost like death has come knocking...


- illeana & tapu lele provide more healing scales to their allies.

- g!ponyta uses heal pulse on the nearest pokemon idk who that is

- cofagrigus uses phantom force to knock away any approaching megawhatever they are

- alcremie is literally just sittin pretty, u go bb

- alakazam uses psychic in an attempt to part the blizzard in a makeshift path, sure we'll go with that c:

- gnight i sleep now

LILLIAN GLASS Avatar
[attr="class","spiral"]Most of the seeds raining from the sky are burned or caught by their layered defenses. It gives Lillian a small surge of relief -- reports of Ultra Beasts easily tearing through moves like her Machamp's WIDE GUARD had been haunting her since this fight began. Thankfully, they didn't move from her nightmares to reality.

But things were not all right, for when she looks in Fernando's direction it's just in time to see LEECH SEED take root and begin to rapidly spread its tendrils. These are reports she read, too. This is a nightmare too.

"Strength!" she shouts at Machamp, who's promptly lowered to the ground by Magneton. The hulking fighting type approaches Fernando with hands outstretched, its muscles already flexing with the great STRENGTH Arceus gifted its species with. That gift won't be enough. It presses one of its hands to Fernando and uses the other three to attempt to pull at the LEECH SEED. It doesn't budge.

When the tendrils start to reach out to the new victim that's presented itself Lillian orders her Machamp to fall back before it becomes another victim.

"Close ranks!" she shouts to her remaining pokemon. In the back of her mind she can almost hear Fernando cursing her for messing with the plan but in this moment she loses reason. Bronzong and Cloyster pull in close to their master and her master, PROTECTS glisten around their bodies. Magneton once again turns its gaze to their surroundings. Frantic eyes attempt to LOCK-ON to the nearest, most pressing threat.

Her actions are excessive and wasteful, she knows this even as she gives the orders. It's not long before joins them and frees . But Lillian can't bring herself to care. Whatever the plan, whatever the situation, she can't leave Fernando on his own when he's in trouble.



+ Lillian notices the LEECH SEED hit and freezes
+ Machamp tries (and fails) to use STRENGTH to undo the attack
+ Lillian decides if she can't free Fernando she'll protect him
+ Cloyster pulls back from the front-line and PROTECTS near Fernando
+ Bronzong also PROTECTS near Fernando -- still holding LIGHT SCREEN (4/5), REFLECT (3/5), and SAFEGUARD (2/5)
+ Magneton attempts to use LOCK-ON to zero in on any large threats

FERNANDO SILPH Avatar
[attr="class","spiral"]The unsightly entanglement of the LEECH SEED makes it near impossible to move. Even with his Smeargle plucking at the vines, they refuse to budge. “Off,” he commands, cutting the Pokemon’s effort short. They don't have time to waste on futile efforts. His last ditch attempt is too expel a copious amount of MISTY TERRAIN but even that does nothing against his current bondage.

If the vines resist sheer force then there's nothing he can do but leave his own well-being in the hands of others. Instead, his attention remains on the battlefield, calculating their own position as an incoming BLIZZARD buffets his already immobile body.

"Null, G-2, blitz forward!"

The most he can do is shout orders. In the field, without a distinct advantage, Fernando is near useless. And, as planned, it turns out that Stormy proves pivotal to their success. Her touch brings both pain and freedom as the flames course along his vines, singeing exposed skin, dispersing MISTY TERRAIN in a fit of smoke as her powers BURN through.

Yet, despite the pain and damage, Fernando finds his doubled-edge shield comforting.

"I'm okay, Bronwen," he reassures, a whisper in the embrace of her wings. "Focus on the objective."

His Pokemon don't need the same reminder. His Type:Null takes the initiative against the Phermosa, darting through the BLIZZARD with its FLAME CHARGE. In tandem with Stormy's Type:Null, it follows up with the THUNDER WAVE with a physical tackle in an effort to pin and maul the Ultra Beast.

His Zygarde maneuvers closer to the Ultra Beast as well, avoiding the Blizzard by darting across the mountain side. Every so often, GRASS KNOTS sprout from the stony crags, dislodging seeds and looking to render them useless. The Pokemon has no idea what's behind the menacing obstacles but their presence is unnerving enough to demand attention. It's 10% form boasts a formidable speed and looks to close in on both the Ultra Beast and the Excavation Site.

Clefairy remains close by, continuing to charge up it's METEOR BEAM. Harvesting the location's energy is potent but landing a critical hit requires both timing and opportunity.

Smeargle provides a HELPING HAND to Fernando's Tapu Fini. Remaining nearby, the Pokemon stands before both Stormy, Fernando, and their entourage, looking to sweep the nearby area clean of the leftover seeds with a full bodied SURF.

- ensnared, smeargle tries to pluck at vines

- fernando tells it to stop and get off, tries to brute force it w misty surge

- stormy burns his vines and him

- clefairy's FRIEND GUARD mitigates damage to allies

- type:null charges phersophoney w flame charge

- zygarde uses grass knot to dislodge seeds w grass knot

- tapu fini washes away seeds w surf

- clefairy continues charging

- smeargle uses helping hand on tapu fini

Everything was…going to be okay, right?

Well, that was where he was sorely mistaken.

Even though he knew that Ro and Ryujin had put up a wall enough to deflect most of what had been incinerated by the flames, there had been enough that escaped the onslaught.

Oh, Arceus, what the fuck was happening?!

He hurriedly tried to remove and scrub off the—the things that were growing, but it was too fast, too quick. In moments he was engulfed by the growth and stricken, unable to move. The Swampert had turned back and let out a cry of alarm, which alerted the Metagross to what had just—

“Wait!” he shouted from the thick growth. “Ro, keep defending!” he called out, and the Metagross—much as the hulking silver beast wanted to attempt to peel off the offending growth, had no other choice but to turn his attention back to what was going on up and ahead of them and threw out another wide-reaching Psychic net.

“Amir! Layer that with your Protect!” he added to his own Type:Null, who was now standing in a defensive position. A Protective shield then joined the Psychic, hopefully repelling anything else that was incoming further.

But shit, these plants were making it terribly hard for him to move. He was stuck like a scarecrow planted in the middle of a field and then it hit him—

Shit, I don’t have a single Fire-type attack on me! his mind thought in a panic.

Knowing that there was someone who practically dabbled in fire, he then raised his voice and shouted, “Stormy! Help! Can you get these vines off me?” and hoped that the other heard.

Due to his current position it was difficult to see what was happening with the others—the thickness of the growing vines around him made it harder to perceive what was going on around him. He waited, and waited—

He wondered if he was going to be saved.

The perception of the area around him changed as he felt the heat… the warmth attempting to burn away the flames. However, the moment he looked up and saw that instead of Stormy it was the other deity that had headed towards him—he blinked.

Just how much heat could he tolerate?

It burned.

Everythingburned.

“Ryujin!” he cried a few moments later, hoping the Swampert would attempt to douse the superheated flames that were burning all around him. Another cry of alarm escaped the Swampert, before it concentrated and fired off a Whirlpool around him; a desperate attempt to douse the flames. At the same time this was happening, the Gardevoir blinked and almost let out a scream before intensifying its healing efforts with Life Dew.

The Articuno, not too far away cast its best rendition of a surprised stare at the Moltres—before turning its attention up ahead. There was an incoming Blizzard—so of course the only natural response was to counter it with a Blizzard of its own; to cancel it out—hopefully.






f9J4f|N7


tl;dr:

Oh shit Lars is about to become Soylent Green
• Metagross used Psychic to defend against any last-minute wayward obstacles!
• Type:Null used Protect to strengthen the Psychic-fied attempt to repel whatever was headed their way
• Lars asked for help from Stormy, doesn’t know if he’s going to get an answer
• Moltres’s flames come and attempt to singe away the growth—only this time this is fire hotter than hell fire so how’s that going to hold up?!
• Swampert used a concentrated Whirlpool in an attempt to douse the flames
• Gardevoir used Life Dew in an attempt to heal off whatever damage (or burns) Lars would sustain (because that shit is going to burn him that’s for sure)
• Articuno used Blizzard to counter the Pheromosa’s own Bizzard to cancel it out? Maybe?!

[attr="class","omgenmid"]

WAR OF THE WORLDS RAID
SETTING: LATE SEPTEMBER
THIRD DAY OF THE WAR



CHARMED



THE SWEET PHEROMONES waft across the battlefield. A potent scent that reaches even the mountains, should those battered by explosions capture a sliver of pure air instead of smoke.[break][break][break]

’s Krookodile emerges from the earth; however, the Pheromosa is too swift. The Ultra Beast kicks the crocodile back toward the earth with minor singes before parrying against ’s Doublade. However, several strikes land on its dainty build causing it kick away in a backflip. Furthermore, ’s Volcarona attempts to SAFEGUARD against the effects of whatever the Pheromosa has attempted, but to no avail. While and are able to stave off the effects of the pheromones, and find themselves caught up in a perfumed haze of delirium.[break][break][break]

, , and their pokemon are now under the effects of Pheromosa’s scent. They are awestruck by the creature’s beauty— but more importantly, will now be hostile to all other player characters and their pokemon for this round (unless something is done).
[break][break][break]

Unaware of what has transpired with the charmed, , , and some of the charmed trainers’ Pokemon manage to reach the stretch of woods where the generator lays. Several Megalopolan troops react to their arrival. In the resulting clash, the generator is destroyed, including its control panel. An explosion rocks the grassy island while ’s Hattrem manages to fling the “mega stone” out from the machine before her trainer is controlled.[break][break][break]

Curiously, the wormhole remains open, constantly flickering. Constantly crackling with terrible energy. When retrieve the “mega stone,” they would find that it is irregularly shaped with flow lines and pits… in other words, it is not a mega stone at all. Thankfully, the dark aura in the sky fades despite the wormhole’s continued presence. Unfortunately, his Porygons' TRI-ATTACKS strike , , , and who nearby— causing them to falter. Briefly, and gain cognition upon being hit, but they soon realize they are being overwhelmed by the pheromones once again.[break][break][break]

[break][break][break]

The Pheromosa grins before sticking its tongue at the rest of the party as the entire mountainside to their east explodes.[break][break][break]

SACRIFICES AND EXPLOSIONS



THE SACRIFICE COMES SWIFTLY. As ’s Milotic and Dragapult rush throughout the minefield of explosive seeds, they fight against the cold winds of the Pheromosa waiting at the top. They tear through the seeds as explosions rock the falls. While other trainers and their Pokemon aid their sacrifice with attacks of their own, it is clear the blitzkrieg of ’s Pokemon is what grants the rest of the party salvation. In the resulting blasts, the two Pokemon lose their lives— but grant hope.[break][break][break]

[break][break][break]

, , , and manage to free themselves from their vine-coffin. However, they are singed, for the vines that burn away have gone skin-deep. Healing offered by the likes of ’ Gardevoir & ’s Blissey allows those near her to rejuvenate as is lifted on to her Absol. offers the Councilman personalized protection as he’s healed, and her Magneton seeks targets… however, it only finds one (aside from the Pheromosa): ’ Type: Null.[break][break][break]

A dramatic pulse across the sky sounds. The origin comes from the center of Hoenn, and suddenly will find his Type: Null shrieking. Its helmet breaks. In its new chimeric form, the Silvally goes berserk and attempts to attack the Head Ranger— and everyone nearby. The same occurs to ’s Type: Null, which ’s Magneton can trace as well.[break][break][break]

As ’s Alakazam attempts to part the winds, ’ Articuno attempts to counteract the Pheromosa’s BLIZZARD with its own, it only causes the whole mountain side to be struck with ice. Everyone and every Pokemon suffers the onslaught of cold winds, shards of ice cutting into Pokemon and human alike.[break][break][break]

’s Togekiss flies forward, striking the Pheromosa. It flinches the Ultra Beast briefly, allowing the rest of her Pokemon to strike. As her Kubfu evolves, her Hatterene’s Z-MOVE extends forth as a terrible psychic claw. In the imposed silence, the Pheromosa is torn into with horrific strikes before being clobbered by the Urshifu’s strikes. As the Pheromosa is flung backwards, the alien creature is saved from an attack from ’s Type: Null, for its helmet breaks then.[break][break][break]

Weakened, but still kicking, the Pheromosa evades ’s Blastoise’s attack, but is distracted enough to be struck by ’s Kangaskhan’s SURF. Finally, the Ultra Beast buckles onto its knees…[break][break][break]

When appears with , they do not know what they have gotten into. The Pheromosa and the seeds have given General Smhoke, the surrounding troops, and the Celesteela enough time to prepare for a possible advance. After all, their brief teleport in and out near the site has not gone unseen.[break][break][break]

While ’s Charizard blows flames, attempts to punch General Smhoke. Managing to flash him the most incredulous look, the General lifts her stun baton to prod him in the chest before he can punch her. PARAYLYZED, finds himself tossed into the excavation pit instead, beginning to plummet a terrible height in plain sight of ’s Noivern and .[break][break][break]

[break][break][break]

As Turtonator uses BURNING JEALOUSY, the dragon finds itself encased in the blasters. Although the attack seems effective, the Celesteela is quick to snuff the dragon’s flame. It encases the Alolan dragon in the walls of its blasters as it slams its arms into the earth. Caught between the Celesteela’s blasters and the earth, the Turtonator is trapped.[break][break][break]

General Smhoke taps the gargantuan Ultra Beast with a smile, “TIME TO GO MEGA-BOOM!” The Celesteela activates its thrusters, barreling an explosive force down into the mountains with Turtonator inside. [break][break][break]

MOUNTAIN CRUMBLES



THE INTEGRITY OF THE MOUNTAIN HAS FALLEN APART due to the explosive seeds and the Celesteela’s mining. With a smile, the General watches as the entire crust of mountain begins to fall apart, causing EVERYONE ASIDE FROM , , , and to begin plummeting deep into the caves. [break][break][break]

Should your characters or your Pokemon survive the fall or the crumbling rock, they would find themselves falling into a deep cavern with running water… with something curious awaiting them nearby. Those with CORRUPTED SILVALLY will find themselves being attacked as they fall as well.[break][break][break]

as the fire blast flames the large ultra beast suddenly slams its large arms into the mountain and the entire structure begins to shake before collapsing. "my house!" the masked hero shouted in pure disbelief as he saw the mountain collapse in on itself. still there was no time to worry about his secret base, he could probably rebuilt it once this was all over and make the megalopoans pay for it.
[break][break]
first things first, saving the brave redhead that tried to punch out the general and was now falling to his death. "after him!" kazimir called out as his charizard looped around in the air and flew right for to scoop him up in its arms as it glided towards the ground while bringing up a protect barrier to shield them from any falling rubble and place the three of them on the ground and shield them with its wings while giving him a thumbs up to let him know it would take care of him while pokkenger yelled up at the general. "HEY THAT WAS DANGEROUS! YA TRYING TO GET YOURSELF KILLED HERE TOO!?
[break][break]
as the blastoise lost his footing underneath him as the ground opened up and he was free falling towards the inner parts of the mountain the sound of running water and the sight of one of the many familiar waterfalls of his home was enough to spark an idea. tucking into his shell he brought up his own protective barrier as he aimed himself to land in the base pool of one of the waterfalls to keep himself safe.

it hurt, but she lived.

lived long enough to feel the ground crumble below her, and long enough for her to realize what was going to happen. the danger pokemon already had a bit of a habit staying prepared the way it did, hence it gripped tightly onto the earth below i t and brace for the crumbling. still, it let out a loud roar to alert the houndoom, who was quick to jump and latch onto 's bronzong before the ground could cave under it.

meanwhile, opehlia screams as she clings tightly to the absol, burying her face into its snow, white fur. the disaster pokemon's eyes began to glow a similar blue, however rather than sending an attack into the future, he aims to find a future where the duo is safe. the descent isn't as hazardous with the aid of others, and ophelia hangs on for dear life as the absol tries to launch himself from rock to rock until he can find and scale down a wall.




- houndoom hopped onto 's bronzong
- ophelia is hanging on for dear life
- absol used FUTURE SIGHT to avoid debris and a safe route down.

Everything happened so fast. Warm crimson colored orbs widened as two of his team mate’s pokemon got swallowed whole in the blast, clearly ending their lives for the sake of saving them. But despite the two pokemon taking the hit, the expulsion was not done. Just as the fire fang got rid of the vines, the man barked for his dragon to use protect once more. The creature clasped his claws together with a roar, a force field bubble appeared out as thin air around him and his creatures. Luckily, the protection worked as the blast hit the protective barrier. However, it wasn’t over yet.

The protective barrier worked for his small fleet as the blast started to settle around him. But just as the blast settled, the mountain started to cave in. It was like in slow motion. Maverick eyes widen as he reached into his pockets to recall Azula and Rheager. He stumbled as the earth started to crumble beneath his feet. “Avias!” he called out as the Aerodactyl swooped down just in time to let Maverick leap onto the creature’s back. Screamed of terror filled the area with the deviation of the events that followed. The creature lifted higher into the sky as dust and debris kicked into the air. The man blinked, unsure of what to really do at this point other than wait for everything to settled.

As the dark sky overhead fades, Kim’s eyes divert to the mountain, assessing the other group and how their own fight had been going. All he could see was the frozen cliffside and Articuno’s wings flapping over the treelines, Kim rolling his eyes before being forced to turn his attention back to his own problems.

The generator had been destroyed, one of Kim’s main goals accomplished, but a stray tri-attack had suddenly batted near, his eyes soon moving over to the source of the attack: ’s porygon.

For a moment, he contemplates taking them out, unsure if they belonged to the enemy or not, considering the fact that they had mainly taken out the Megalopian forces, but decides against retaliation. It would be a pain to deal with fighting your own forces on top of the enemies.

Instead, he walks forward, grabbing the first stupid science looking bitch he can find by the collar and points at the persisting wormhole, his pokemon standing around him in a defensive position.

How do we shut this thing down?

He barely flinches as the earth begins to shake, the crumbling crust of the mountainside a problem the others would have to deal with on their own.

His breathing had become labored at this point, the ginger known as Rufio left nigh reeling after the latest clash of Pokemon and Trainer versus monster-bug-Pokemon-thing.

Still clutching onto Doublade's two sword hilts Rufio would nonetheless find the breath to compliment Zweihander.

You're doing great girly....Hehh...heh...We've got this, just gotta' keep at it!!

Wiping the sweat from his brow Rufio's eyes would then wander on to the portal in the sky and the chaos brewing from the woods nearby, or at least what he could make of it.

How was Lockjaw doing?

Hopefully he's alright...

Rufio wasn't a true sentimental type, but he did hope that his Pokemon hadn't been lost in the unfolding war. Gnawing at his lower lip while thinking it over he'd be caught back when a series of attacks hit him. Had Moore the Mudkip not prepared a Protect to prevent Rufio and crew from being harmed then they'd have likely been damaged by...another Trainer's Pokemon?

Gritting his teeth and almost hissing Rufio would take a step away from the bug-beast he had been fighting, his entire focus stolen by the friendly fire that had been dished out. Yet, with an enraged Lockjaw appearing, it would seem like it's attention had been diverted, now unleashing it's Rage upon in a surprise lunging attack, trying to use it's berserker rage strength to latch onto the Trainer's hand and the "Mega Stone" they held onto, with a mighty bite.

With Lockjaw dishing out revenge in the name of it's Trainer, Rufio would find pride as well as a means to return his gaze back to the bug-beast that was now mocking them by sticking out it's tongue.

Rufio would have it's tongue.

Let's get back in there with Aerial Ace again, let's end this if we can so we can take care of that dude over there ourselves!

Launching back into the fray with a spiraling, corkscrewing flying pattern the three of them would seek out the Pheromosa once more. While Rufio and Zweihander would strike with Aerial Ace, Moore the Mudkip whom was still clinging to Rufio's shoulder would unleash it's own attack once ordered. The latter of which would come while Rufio and the Doublade clashed with Pheromosa.

Moore, drown it with Hydro Pump!

Trying to act with the element of surprise again Moore the Mudkip would then unleash a torrent of a Hydro Pump, trying to launch the attack right down Pheramosa's mouth/throat.



tl / dr;
Moore the Mudkip's Protect saved Rufio and Zweihander the Doublade from the Porygon Tri-Attack move
Lockjaw the Croconaw attacks in a Rage, trying to bite their hand and the "Mega Stone" they hold
Rufio and Zweihander the Doublade attack Pheromosa with Aerial Ace once more
Moore the Mudkip tries to "drown" Pheromosa with a close-range Hydro Pump
Morph the Morpeko remains in it's Poke Ball on Rufio's person

Stormy folds in and around him, protecting them both in the process. The fire from her hands, from her wings, from her body in general burns away Fernando's vines. She can see the blisters, she can smell the burnt flesh and feels the way he recoils -- but she holds on.[break][break]

Even though he whispers to her, even though he assures her that he is fine, she does not let go. She can't.[break][break]

Instead, the woman pulls him closer, fingers free of the hellfire she possesses as she holds tight. The ground below her is slipping and she can feel the lurch of it rising up to meet her. They're falling and her wings are the first to respond to this new threat. They billow and catch the wind, unflinching even as they are battered. [break][break]

"Don't let go, Fern. Please don't let go."[break][break]

And as she falls, so do Blissey and Aegislash. Fortunately, the sword and shield Pokemon is able to stay close to Blissey, likely due to the Pokemon reaching out to grab onto it. While the dual-type uses KINGS SHIELD to protect himself and Blissey from the falling debris, the medic herself prepares for impact with her plush body and by tucking herself behind her companions shield. Blissey continues to use LIFE DEW to help with the bumps and bruises they are certain to receive.[break][break]

Whatever is happening to the Type: Null on the field goes temporarily unnoticed as the rest of the mountainside falls. Stormy's newly evolved Silvally falls in tandem with Fernando's, blind confusion and fury overtaking its senses. [break][break]

Charizard turns to PROTECT , giving her aide and a mount should the woman require one to escape the fall. Moltres would do the same but for whoever was nearby, catching the closest person to fall and ENDURING whatever danger might try to drag the legendary bird out of the sky.[break][break]

Regardless of the outcome, they all end up in the same place one way or another. Should Stormy have arrived safely, she'd hesitate a long moment before unfurling her wings from around herself and Fernando to let him go. [break][break]

[break]

- stormy holds onto fernando as the fall. she is attempting to fly or fall/fly to the ground, avoiding the debris and danger as best they can.[break]

- charizard uses PROTECT while catching illeana as they fall.[break]

- type: null evolves into silvally alongside the others. it's going berserk i guess. maybe falling as well?[break]

- aegislash protects blissey as they both fall with a KINGS SHIELD.[break]

- blissey uses LIFE DEW to try and protect everyone from fall damage + debris and shit. she's soft and bouncy hopefully kings shield is enough.[break]

- moltres uses ENDURE and is looking to catch anyone who is falling + needs help.[break]

- taking a moment to breathe or recover from their fall i guess.

it all collapsed.

as noivern swerved and maneuvered around falling rocks. mateo took notice of the falling valerio that would come to be captured by a charizard, and then a falling blastoise. but then there were more. the megalopolans also fell, their general too.

as noivern swerved and dodged each falling rock. THE DRAGON-TYPE WOULD MANEUVER IN A MANNER THAT ALLOWED HIM TO BE CAREFUL WHILE FOLLOWING GENERAL SOHKE in their free-fall. "you're not getting away!" mateo shouted as he rode noivern after the madwoman. hopefully, on their way down, they would land safely in order to finish what was started.

tl;dr: mateo is riding noivern while ordering it to skydive and chase after general sohke during their fall.

Frustration flared from the Krookodile's nostrils like hell-smoke... but was then swiftly inundated with a pleasant and mind-numbing aroma. Captured in this haze, the crocodile swerved its head towards the brightest and most beautiful being nearby: its darling Pheromosa. When it noticed another that seemed to vye for the affections of its darling, however, the beast roared and dove into the earth below like water. Its DIG sent it straight towards the human () like a rocket before it exploded out of the ground and tried to strike the man down.[break][break]

| | |
[break][break]

Despite their momentary success in freeing the 'mega stone' from the generator, Atlan was the first to realize that they'd just accidentally flown straight through a pinkish cloud of the Pheromosa's making. And, unfortunately for them, they'd just inhaled a lungful of it. Chrom was the first to feel its effects kick into gear, cawing happily when it spotted the bright and beautiful Pheromosa nearby. When its eyes caught sight of the bumbling Dragonite down below, however, that caw turned vicious. With little regard for the rider on its back, it took a nosedive and pulled up just before unleashing an AIR SLASH.[break][break]

At its lowest point of altitude in that moment, a brainwashed and clearly angered Atlan leapt off his Skarmory mount to try and tackle , the first person his suddenly crazed eyes took focus on. The Hattrem that had been clinging to his shoulder this whole time, and was the last to submit to the Pheromosa's pheromones, remained on her human mount's back but used her PSYCHIC powers on the first Porygon she saw nearby.[break]

Hypnotized Skarmory used Air Slash on 's Dragonite![break]
Hypnotized Atlan leaps off of Skarmory to try and tackle ![break]
Hypnotized Hattrem used Psychic on 's first Porygon![break][break]


tl;dr: Krookodile attacks Lance with Dig, vying for Pheromosa's love and unwilling to share it. Skarmory swoops down to attack Kim's defending Dragonite with an Air Slash, at which point a hypnotized Atlan leaps off his mount to try and tackle Tsubasa down. Meanwhile, Hattrem tries to seize one of Tsubasa's Porygon for the damage it had inflicted earlier.[break][break]

— Atlan is wearing a dark green combat vest with a long-sleeve black shirt, black trousers, and combat boots. Strapped to his belt are his heavy balls and several supplies, including: a flashlight, emergency flares, a pair of cuffs, rations, a canteen, portable first-aid, and a pair of stun batons. Wrapped around his neck is a black bandana.
