The boat breaches the top of the wave and crashes down on the other side and Celeste lets out a brief sigh of relief, her grip on Leviathan's school loosening for just a second. However, it seemed the worst had yet to come. Giant tentacle beasts, the very same reported to have the horrifying toxin, were waiting for them on the other side of the wave. Celeste cursed, swearing for acting so hastily.

"Kelp, Tiny, leave the boat, they can handle it! Firepower on the double!" Immediately, the Dhelmise began to unwrap its kelp chain around the boat, just in time as the giant Nihilego seemed to be grabbing for the boat itself. Celeste forced herself to steel her nerves, gripping tightly onto the school of fish beneath her once more. Luckily, the LIGHT SCREEN and the AQUA RING were still protecting her and her pokemon.

With her Dhelmise joining her in the water, Tiny the Wailord had to swim down and around to avoid slamming his massive frame into the boat, still emanating intense PRESSURE. As soon as she saw the massive water spout spring up from under the water from 's Wailord, Celeste shouted. "Now! Sever the tentacles at the base! May the ocean run with alien blood!"

Both the Wishiwashi school and the Wailord fired off twin HYDRO PUMPS, intent to not only push the Nihilegos back but to damage them as much as they could. Meanwhile, her Dhelmise was quick to use ANCHOR SHOT, its massive anchor launching towards the tentacle closest to the boat aided by its STEELWORKER ability, with the Espurr on Celeste's shoulders letting loose its intense psychic power with a PSYSHOCK, focusing its energies as much as it can and hopefully bypassing any attempts at defense with its INFILTRATOR ability.

SCiiFEJR


Notes:
Wailord still exerts PRESSURE.
Aqua Ring and Light Screen still in effect.
Wailord uses Hydro Pump.
Wishiwashi uses Hydro Pump.
Dhelmise uses Anchor Shot, aided by Steelworker.
Espurr uses Psyshock, with Infiltrator potentially coming into play.

ALEXANDER STONE Avatar
[attr="class","stone"]the warning from is appreciated – alexander's arm wraps around salamence's neck tighter as a result, holding on to combat against the great momentum as their first obstacle approaches them.

alexander trusts enough to follow her lead. her pokemon charge at the buzzwole, providing a decent enough distraction for gallade to sneak a PSYCHO CUT in. boosted twice by SWORDS DANCE, gallade's attack looks to cleanly cut through buzzwole.

still, alexander plays it safe. should the buzzwole still manage to break through, salamence and pyukumuku will both PROTECT to allow salamence a brief window to dip in the air, hopefully avoiding the buzzwole entirely.

- alexander is with and @sanvi.
- gallade, boosted twice with SWORDS DANCE, uses PSYCHO CUT in an attempt to cut through the buzzwole.
- should the buzzwole still break through, salamence and pyukumuku will both PROTECT. salamence would drop in the air as well, looking to avoid the buzzwole.
- alexander and gallade are on salamence's back. pyukumuku is suctioned to alexander's back.

The towering red beast that fasts them makes a pit form in Noelle's stomach, her features convulsing into a look of sickened loathing - perhaps even fear. A hand cups her mouth, a shudder coming over her form, and for a moment, the pink-haired woman is reduced to a frozen statue, the adrenaline that pumped through her body more inclined to flight than fight.

For a moment, she's ashamed of the almost cowardly thoughts. She's faced these things before - once, even within their own world. But, during that time she'd had individuals far stronger than her. Bailey, Kyle, Persephone - even Mateo. 'I wish they were here,' her terrified thoughts are filled with anguish, and for a moment, she was useless. 'Can I do this without them?' Attacks whirl past her, and it takes a strong shake of her head to bring herself back to reality.

There's no time to have a midlife crisis nor dwell on the validity of her own strength though. Right now, she needed to fight with all her strength not solely for her own wellbeing, but for those who relied on her as well. It's a self-gratifying thought, and Noelle's faintly aware that it's nothing but a guise of being 'honorable'. However, its one that helps spring her into action nonetheless. For her friends, she'd fight.

"Support in stopping it!"
Her command is followed by her blastoise and with a sudden toss of a pokeball, her blissy as well. The newly released blissey immediately springs into action. It stands alongside 's mr.mime, a pink energy coating its body, PSYCHIC powers aiming to hold the ultra beast in place.

Blastoise's canons aim themselves towards the towering bug, glowing blue beams of glacial energy shooting from the metallic tips. The ICE BEAM starts at the Buzzwole's feet, seeking to freeze its feet in place whenever the pointed tips came into contact with the wet ice of the avalanche. The beam traverses over its body, trying to quite literally freeze it into place.

"Keep it away!"
Her second direction is towards her gyarados. Aided by the helping hand of a nearby ally, yet another roar of intense, sharp wind blasts from its gaping maw. The HURRICANE billows towards the buzzwole, buffeting it with harsh winds intent on keeping it from closing in on them.

"Stay on standby to help, just in case."
Dragonite flies overhead, an EXTREME SPEED ready to aid in getting an ally at risk out of harm's way if need be.

's question is answered with a stressed, slightly forced smile, "we're holding up!" Though doubt swirls in her mind, she's otherwise happy to have more aid. Any help, regardless how little, was help they could use.

"Do you think we could break its long nose thing?"
Her question is directed out towards those closest to her. While she's unsure what it could do (even if she had a good guess), it was a weapon that made her incredibly uncomfortable. Getting rid of it would do them well in the end, if that was possible.

tldr;
- Blissey uses Psychic on the Buzzwole in tandem with June's Mr. Mime to help restrict Buzzwole
- Blastoise uses Ice Beam alongside Iris' avalanche to further help restrain/slow it down
- Dragonite remains on stanby with an extreme speed in the ready
- Gyradaos uses a hurricane on the buzzwole to attack/keep it at a distance. It's boosted by a Helping hand from @andrew's Nidoqueen

so much was happening. olivia kept high above the chaos atop her vespiqueen with yet another defense order resulting in thousands of combee swarming around the queens. down below, her jellicent began to wring out nearby tentacles with its cursed body, whilst primarina blasted every tentacle with an icy wind.

the dark froth of the sea splashes on the rocks. as the ultra beast rushes for them, noah can feel the hairs on his neck curl like sea ferns pulled back by an ominous tide. under the flickering glow of @iris's tossed stun baton, is quick to solidify his position beside .

the HURRICANE of 's gyarados stirs the seas rough as it whips against the buzzwole. when he sees 's mr. mime attempt to PSYCHIC it in place; he orders his machamp forth.

"DYNAMIC PUNCH HIM," noah roars, "STAY ON YOUR TOES!" he adds, wary of the buzzwole's capabilities— but also warning his pokemon of the icy ground. "BUTLER," he calls for his unfezant, "WATCH HIS BACK!"

his falinks rushes forth, emboldening its defenses with a NO RETREAT, ready to be the second wave of defense should his first two pokemon fail. his medicham leaps closer to @iris and before conjuring a disc of psychic energy within its pale hands. a PSYCHO CUT whips between ICE BEAMS and DRAGON DARTS toward the muscular alien.

"GOOD TO SEE YOU, STONE!" noah shouts to , but he doesn't look back. his gaze, armoured with furrowed brow, remains transfixed on the threat before them.

tl;dr
machamp DYNAMIC PUNCHES @ buzzwole while unfezant watches his back (and will take the attack for another pkmn)
medicham leaps close to @iris and and and throws a PSYCHO CUT.

Heading outside was a mistake. In an attempt to look for something to help aid them Dani ends up with a clear view of the ugly ass Ultra Beasts that wade from ship to ship. Watching Hunter’s cherished Skarmory writhe as their newfound puppet strikes her nerves. For all her screaming earlier she finds herself unable to say anything, freezing.

But when she sees her partner do the same her own protective instinct kicks in. “Look alive limp dick!” Anger courses through her veins and she immediately charges at him.

Whoopie, her Wooper, is released in order for the Pokemon to attack. “Woopie, whoop his ass!” Despite the size difference and the Wooper’s relatively small stature, it leaps forward, flipping forward to bring its tail down on an outreaching tentacle. It might not look like much on the surface but striking from the right angle can even cause an EARTHQUAKE.

The rest of her Pokemon continue to use their PSYCHIC powers to assist with pushing the ship forward.


- momentarily frozen due to approaching nihilego

- charges at the frozen

- her wooper leaps forward to use EARTHQUAKE on an approaching tentacle

- elgyem and smoochum continue to help the ship cut through with PSYCHIC

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



NIHILEGO ATTACK



AS THE NIHILEGO ASSAULT THE VESSELS, their terrifying size becomes apparent. Their tentacles is as thick as an aged tree’s trunk. The tentacles seek Pokemon and trainers alike, splintering barrels and planks when they sweep across the deck.[break][break][break]

The southern boat is battered by ’s Pokemon. As the seas churn violently, rained upon by ’s HAIL, his Pidgeotto conjures a powerful gale. and would find their ship pushing close toward the Nihilego in the middle of the ships, the tentacle that has latched onto the vessel’s edge pulling it quickly too. His Blastoise would fire a potent FLASH CANNON, tearing a hole into the southern ship’s hull.[break][break][break]

[break][break][break]

However, his Blastoise would be scooped out of the water by a Nihilego’s tentacle. The tentacles tighten around it, threatening to squeeze the life out of this turtle. Likewise, other allies find themselves plucked out of their boats. ’s Corviknight is grappled as it attempts to STEEL WINGS the Blastoise free by slamming a portion of the limb into an ELECTRO WEB and protecting ’s Emolga from being taken by the same.[break][break][break]

On the northern vessel, ’s Salamence, despite its INTIMIDATING stature is ensnared by a tentacle. The Abbiati girls would find their Pokemon ensnared too. ’s Espurr and @seadsoda’s Primarina are scooped by a predatory tentacles and begin to tighten their grips. However, Pokemon are not the only victims. As watches the Nihilego lurch over the side of the boat, a slimy limb wraps around his waist before hurling him up in the air.The seas surge below as his entire body is choked. Those that watch him would find that the view strikes shivers down their spines. In the resulting panic, other trainers are grabbed as well.[break][break][break]

, and join as they're stolen by Nihilego. barely manages to escape thanks to her Slowbro's PSYCHIC intervention.[break][break][break]

@dani's Wooper manages to protect its owner from a tentacle with EARTHQUAKE, while the rest of her Pokemon help Captain continue to drive the vessel forward. Everyone else’s efforts manage to stave off any further tentacles from grapping them or their Pokemon. In particular, casts a TORNADUS FEATHER toward one of the Nihilego. As the feather disintegrates, a powerful cyclone of wind batters the Nihilego, causing one of them to release a couple of their prey. Consequently, the Gym Leader will be able to save two of the following:[break][break][break]

, 's Corviknight, ’s Salamence, , ’s Espurr, , ’s Primarina, and are trapped by tentacles. They must find a way to escape, or they will be crushed next turn.[break][break]

can save two of the above with the Tornadus Feather. The trainers can save themselves should they choose to sacrifice their Pokemon; however, others can help them out too!
[break][break][break]

THE SOUTHERN SHIP SINKS



FURTHERMORE, THE SABOTAGE PROVES TO BE EFFECTIVE. In conjunction with the Nihilego’s attacks, ’s continual attack of the southern vessel has sustained terrible damage. The ship is pulled close before colliding with the northern ship. Everyone on the northern ship would feel the wood groan and whine as the collision shakes the desk.[break][break][break]

The Captain is swooped out from the southern ship’s deck, and as ’s Haxorus watches the man’s skull be dug into by the Nihilego’s tentacle, it realizes this ship is a lost cause. Already, water seeps through from the lower levels, flooding the upper deck with brine. It COUNTERS a tentacle's lash and leaps onto a Kingdra waiting in the sea.[break][break][break]

and ’s Haxorus (on a Kingdra) must somehow reach the other ship/or move to safety, either by leaping from one boat to the other (while avoiding Nihilego), or by any other means.
[break][break][break]

BUZZWOLE



THE MUD SLAP STRIKES THE BUZZWOLE, and as the Ultra Beast reels its head toward and his Nincada, it hollers wildly. As ’s Salamence flies close, the Buzzwole PUNCHES the dragon in the snout, slamming it into the beach with a terrible thud.[break][break][break]

However, the Ultra Beast is forced to go on the defensive. @sanvi dives in bravely, her Corviknight DRILL PECKING the Ultra Beast’s head. Afterward, as , , and ’s Pokemon strike the Herculean insect with ROCK SLIDES, BREAKING SWIPES, FLAMETHROWERS, and PSYCHO CUTS, the creature flexes to relieve itself of stress. Its body is tough, including its proboscis, which it is able to defend with its bulbous arms. However, ’s Toxtricity, empowered briefly by its preparation, unleashes a powerful OVERDRIVE from its string-like frills. The electricity illuminates the entire northern sky before striking the Buzzwole square in its pecs.[break][break][break]

Briefly, the Ultra Beast seems weakened…[break][break][break]

Nearby, , @iris, , , and contend with a Buzzwole of their own. The Buzzwole is slowed momentarily by their attacks, its wings fluttering with crystals of ice. DAZZLING GLEAMS and DRAGON PULSES continue to keep at bay, while ’s Nidoking lunges forth with a POISON JAB. The man is with on her Garchomp, and as they come into the fray, she erects DEFENSES in the form of a REFLECT.[break][break][break]

However, the Buzzwole is not deterred. The creature flexes both biceps, breaking free of ’s Mr. Mime’s PSYCHIC and the crisp sound of ice shattering greets their ears. Electricity surges around its fist as it PUNCHES @iris’s Absol, catapulting it back. Likewise, it LUNGES at ’s Inteleon, striking it with its spiked knuckles after smashing ’s Machamp into a nearby island rock with a BRICK BREAK that shatters both the REFLECT and the fighting Pokemon itself.[break][break][break]

Despite its injuries, the creature seems to remain calm…[break][break][break]

hits the beach and springs into action. As HEAT WAVE burns several Megalopolans where they stand, her Scolipede attempts to rush forth to POISON the Ultra Beast. However, before it can attempt to poison it, the Buzzwole lands a devastating HAMMER ARM onto the bug Pokemon, pushing it into the sands like a nail. It grabs the injured Scolipede with ease before hurling it back at her, allowing the Toxicroak and Tentacruel to land attacks.[break][break][break]

A POWER GEM strikes the Buzzwole from ’s Starmie, while 's Beedrill buzzes close to the creature, stabbing its incredible muscle with POISON JAB before weaving away. ’s Espon launches a PSYCHIC attack, which slams into the Buzzwole, causing its wings to flutter in recoil.[break][break][break]

Soon after, joins and in the south, her Tapu Koko jolts forward like lightning. As the island deity siphons energy from the islands, the Tapu Koko expels it in a flashy surge of energy. As clears the skies above with her Pokemon, she would witness this giant as well. With no troops around her, she would be able to see the powerful attack slam into the Buzzwole before a violent beam of blood-red energy courses from ’s Shadow Braviary. The combined strength of OBLIVION WING and NATURE’S MADNESS results in an eruption of flame as it collides with the Buzzwole.[break][break][break]

[break][break][break]

In the resulting smoke, they are unsure whether the Ultra Beast is downed. and scramble to find anything in their respective boats. Both find little, aside from a stun baton and half-chewed limbs, little else is discovered. However, the small speed boats have their keys stuck into their ignition, preparing them for instant departure should they press the pedals.[break][break][break]

mounts her Milotic, using MUDDY WATER to advance; however, as the smoke subsides, she meets the eyes of the Ultra Beast. The Buzzwole stares at the gym leader and her mount, as if to say, “I’m coming for you.” Despite its battered form, it flexes once more and dashes forth with frightening speeds.[break][break][break]

[break][break][break]

The Buzzwole facing each group find their respective targets. One finds @sanvi’s Salamence, while the other pierces ’s Unfezant, which flies in defense of @iris’ Absol. The last finds ’s Starmie, the proboscis piercing through its gem. With no remorse, the Buzzwole begins to siphon vitality from each Pokemon and like a juice box, sucks them entirely dry.[break][break][break]

All three Pokemon die.
[break][break][break]

With the new energy coursing in the Buzzwole’s muscles, the Ultra Beast seems brand new. It chases everyone, searching for more sustenance with its fists.[break][break][break]

[attr="class","mthread"][attr="class","league"]

Kaida looked back just in time to see the unfortunate Salamance take a fist to the face, gaping in horror as the red monster descended and drained the dragon dry in an instant. Kaida leaned forward, grasping Bragi, Silk, and Muspel close. "Go. Hurry." She croaked, shaking as she broke away from the sight, "We'll get revenge later...promise." Clearly, they didn't have the firepower to properly beat this monstrosity, and as terrible as it was that Salamance died, survival came first...it always did, when they couldn't beat an enemy. [break][break]

She fell back to the group, Muspel circling around as Kaida pointed to the seaside town, mouthing the words "Go!", neither daring to talk nor thinking it was possible for the whole group to understand a sign. Immediately afterwards, Muspel unleashed Fire Spin, the spat fire twirling as it reached the monstrosity. There was no point to harming it, but she hoped the wall of flame would stall the monster, obscure the team even a little. Another quick circle, and Silk extended his body from Kaida, breathing out a twisting Sandstorm, it might harm the group a little, but anything was better than the monster chasing them. So, with the monster separated from them by a wall of flame and sand, Kaida hung on tight as Muspel screamed towards the seaside town. In preparation for what was no doubt a battle, Bragi Charged once more. [break][break]

Silk extended his body onto Muspel and Kaida's back, hoping his Sand Veil covered their presence. There was one hope that Kaida had, though left unsaid. If the monster chased them, it would find them, and it would kill them. They had only a chance to gain time to win this battle, to destroy the leader, and that was if the monster pursued easier prey. If there was anything a snake could do, it could disappear, leaving the enemy to find something else to terrorize. Still, that didn't stop a black tar of anger and the same familiar shame of failing her duty to gather in her stomach. [break][break]

Everything was for the sake of protecting her home, and the life within. It wasn't her fault the others chose to fight this fight. She could only protect what was hers, nothing more and, as far as she knew, Pokemon were hers to protect, and those familiar faces...not them. The choking tar didn't go away. [break][break]

Though his Hydreigon strikes true, it's thick tail slamming hard against the Beast's proboscis, it does not break. The creature does not falter, not even under the combined assault of all their Pokemon. Orion pales as he watches it pierce a girl's Salamence (@sanvi) and drain it dry. There is no help to be had; by the time Orion's fingers clench around his Slowbro's pokeball, the dragon's already dead.[break][break]

Wide, dark eyes find 's as she points to the town. He nods.[break][break]

There was no other choice, not for Orion. His Hydreigon was the only Pokemon available to guard him, and if it went down... Orion's gaze finds the churning black waters, the Nihilego lurking like some beast of the deep.[break][break]

"Go." Orion echoes Kaida's command in a whisper, directed to his mount. Hydreigon, aggressive though it was, possessed an understanding of their need for silence. It turns from its prey, a shimmering REFLECTIVE barrier shrouding the team as it rushed forth in pursuit of Kaida and Muspel. It was difficult to see them through the swirling sand, but both mount and rider knew their end target: the seaside town to the east, where the alien forces had congregated.[break][break]

Orion decides to pursue toward the Seaside Town.[break]
Hydreigon sets up a REFLECT. [1/5][break][break]

Normal ain't normal,
𝐎 𝐑 𝐃 𝐈 𝐍 𝐀 𝐑 𝐘 is a luxury
If you wanna understand,
you stand 𝐔 𝐍 𝐃 𝐄 𝐑

mcflurry sighed in relief as the naganadels learned to back off of her, with more and more of their forces falling to the crippling power of her ice-types, but — she heard screams coming from the boat underneath.

— and there were several people being pulled down into the depths (or worse) by these faceless, tentacled monsters.

something immediately rang in her heart, and she steered her steelix to go save them without a single cohesive thought running through her mind. the gigantic iron snake started descending rapidly — as did the weather, with cold skies coming down to the boat.

"mc! iron tail, on — billi?!"

she yelped, her steelix registering the command before she registered the nihilego currently grappling the man she'd drunk herself silly with once.

with unseen speeds, the tip of the steelix's tail impaled downward onto the nihilego to try and get it off, while mcflurry let go of her floating steelix and boarded the boat.

what followed was pure, utter instinct. the air was cold around her — she could feel her knuckles under her skin — she could feel the piercing cold in her lungs.

right now, her prerogative was to attack each and every nihilego, getting them away from the people and pokemon as far as possible. as the hail started pelting her hat and as the cold climate started touching on the late-autumn seas, mcflurry clenched her fists and leaned forward as she yelled.

"mcfreeze 'em, boys!"

her glalie and her abomasnow gave ear-piercing roars as a blast of arctic gales absolutely tore through the climate of the ship's deck. twin blizzards were aimed (area of effect style) at every nihilego mcflurry had her sights on, and a mild white-out was induced for a brief moment.

(in the meantime, her alolan golem decided to make itself useful by adding to the assault, the steelix-armed "machine gun" using its smack down shooting at any nihilego outside the blizzard's range — the nihilego on the salamence caught its eye first.)

———————

- salac berry used! 0 left!
- steelix flies towards the nihilego! mcflurry is joining the northern vessel's front!
- steelix has +2 speed!
- steelix uses iron tail on the nihilego attacking !
- mcflurry lands on the boat!
- abomasnow's snow warning! the surrounding area is now being pelted by hail and ice! 
- abomasnow used blizzard, targeting every nihilego in the vicinity! the attack is more potent and nigh-unavoidable due to hail!
- glalie used blizzard, targeting every nihilego in the vicinity! the attack is more potent and nigh-unavoidable due to hail!
- golem used smack down! it targets any nihilego outside the blizzard's range — starting with the nihilego attacking 's salamence! any pokemon hit will sink like a brick!
- golem has +1 sp. def!

 she pulls out both pokeballs, recalling her meganium and wailord once the garchomp sets herself and the young man onto shore - just in time to see the bird pokemon get its own life sucked out of it. she visibly cringes, but she knows that acting slowly would only result in further casualties.

"pearl, sing. try to put it to sleep." she commands the blissey, prompting it to emit a soothing tone and attempt to put the beast to sleep. at least, long enough for the group to be safe. it would be more hassle to deal with a beast that was feeling even stronger, and there were plenty casualties already.

"we really do need to get rid of its nose.." she groans softly to herself, making quick work with her garchomp and blissey to join up and merge with the rest of the group. "cinnabar can try to slash it off with dragon claw, but we need to immobilize it first." after seeing what happened to the young man's bird, she was.. thoroughly uncomfortable with letting her pokemon get near it.

tl;dr--
- garchomp drops onto the island
- blissey moves onto the shore
- recalls meganium
- recalls wailord
- garchomp lands near the group
- blissey used SING on buzzwole
- garchomp is on standby

He—he wasn’t expecting the feather to react in that manner!

The last time he’d used one (before today) he was propelled skyward—this time though it was an entirely different scenario, seeing as the ‘column’ (or was it funnel? He wasn’t sure) of wind blew out in front of him, headed towards one of the kaiju-sized…

And managed to knock it off-course—somehow!

“Well then,” he said as he squinted, before a momentary white-out forced him to come to a stop. He then looked down, not knowing where the hell the Hail had come from, and had this to say:

“Oi, what the hell?! I’m going to save some people from being destroyed! What’s with the Hail storm?!”

The Salamence merely scoffed—he was a veteran of flying through any manner of foul weather. However, of course, this proved to be a bit of a challenge with Alexei as he scanned his options. He could pick up a couple of people… the question was, who would he save?!

Time was running short.

With another sigh of exasperation, he then zipped up his jacket before patting Gabriel’s neck again. “Reminds you of the snow storm, right? Only this time we have to be careful! Who knows if we get grabbed instead… get ready with a Dragon Claw if we have to cut them loose.”

Grumbling, the Salamence nodded, before bracing himself as they flew forward into the winter conditions. Thankfully he’d zipped up his jacket but had forgotten to bring the flying goggles along—oh, crap.

Coming to a stop a few moments as he recognized a couple of potent Blizzards attempting to strike the gigantic tentacle creatures, he then made headway towards , not realizing it was a familiar face until he was close enough.

“Take—my hand!” he shouted through the hail, as the Salamence flew dangerously close, ready to strike out with the prepared Dragon Claw in case the tentacles decided to get him instead. Whether or not she would follow, a shock of familiar hair made him change direction afterward.

This time he was flying towards where was ensnared, and the first words he said once he was close enough was:

“What the hell are you doing out here?!” he exclaimed as he reached for the other man. “Grab my—hand, if you have a Pokémon with you, have—have them break loose, and if you can recall them, do that!”

Whether or not the other would take the offer, he would then prepare to fly away from the Nihilego as fast as possible—back towards where the northern boat was, so he could drop his passenger(s) off should they want to be taken there.

• Alexei is surprised the feather worked as it should; only instead of upwards the blast of wind went sideways into one of the three giant-kaiju Nihilego. At least he’s learning how to make use of them!
• About to fly forward to save some people but gets momentarily distracted by the sudden Hail conditions. Gets a little angry before sighing and gritting his teeth through this shit
• Zips up his jacket; flies forward into the snow storm. Waits for the Blizzard/s to batter the Nihilego before moving forward
• Has Salamence prepare Dragon Claw in case the tentacles decide to get too up close and personal when he approaches
• Approaches first and attempts to save her
• After that’s done, he then goes for and attempts to get him loose from the tentacles
• Once done, he flies back towards the northern boat, should his additional passengers want to be dropped off there

, incoming aerial rescue, on your left!

The inhuman scream that escaped her lips seeing her beloved Salamence die so easily to the thing surprised even Sanvi. The rage that overtook her did not. She wanted to rip that grotesque thing to pieces, bit by bit, as her dragon’s body fell from the sky. But she knew she couldn’t. The best she could do was throw one of her knives at the beast, aiming for the wings, for her Tatsu. The woman’s face was full of naked anger, even as two of the people in their little group turned to flee.

She had no choice, really, but to follow suit. If Kin went down she would die too, and so would Bell and Darling. So, clenching her fist, she commanded akin to fly through the sandstorm after  and  . The steel raven would do his best to follow her orders, luckily not affected by the blowing sands and harsh winds of the storm as Sanvi herself had to close her eyes. Mentally, though, she’d made a promise- she’d be back for that life-sucking bastard.

•Sanvi follows Orion and Kaida through the sandstorm towards the seaside town.
•Corviknight has an Iron Defense prepared, ready to use upon being attacked.
•Sanvi throws a knife at the big bug aimed at the wings in a final f*ck you

how she had been ensnared by the cursed beast was beyond her - but neither olivia nor her pokemon would allow such an act to go unpunished. tailing behind her fellow queen as she was rescued by , the vespiqueen buzzed with rage - giving commands to her subordinates to save the primarina. jellicent acted first, unleashing a torrent of water spout at the tentacle gripping the singing seal - who in turn, writhed within their trap with a aqua jet; trying desperately to surf across the water spout provided and to safety!

regardless of whether she broke free, vespiqueen unleashed her swarm of combees in an attack order to distract the kraken like beast. olivia mean while, gasping as she nearly relieved being choked out by turned to alexei. "we need to take these ships down.." she grunted, azure eyes glaring in the direction of the enemy ships... and releasing oeroe to fall into the sea.

the crudely acted quickly as she sank to the ocean floor - launching large boulders up with ancient power, and trying to crash into the enemy ships.

tl;dr
vespiqueen used attack order to help free primarina! (def/spdef +3)
jellicent used water spout to help free primarina!

As soon as his opportunity to do so arises, he gets off the back of the Garchomp. He then watches on in shock as the muscle bug manages to completely heal off whatever damage they had inflicted by sucking the life out of the Unfezant. "What the fuck, that's bullshit!", exclaimed the streamer.

Seeing as his ride had the idea to attempt to sever the creature's proboscis, he decided to help her. He would send out his Archeops, once again. "Screech, try to rip that cocksucker's stinger off with Dragon Claw. King, give him a Helping Hand. Queen, try to occupy the prick with Poison Fang!", Andrew ordered his Pokemon.

The Nidoqueen would go first, attempting to bite down on the Buzzwole with Poison Fang. Then, backed by the Helping Hand of the Nidoking, the Archeops would attempt to slash at the proboscis with a Dragon Claw, assisting 's Pokemon in the process.
