 Dream or not, at least the ocean water remains a familiar presence to him, his arms and legs naturally treading water as soon as he feels himself plunge from devastated forest land to the submerging warmth of the Hoenn summer sea. It was like the previous dreamscape had snapped over to the next projecter slide, memories of the rampage replaced instead by the sight of a school of Mantine swimming over. Angelo, legs kicking underwater, couldn't help but reach out a hand to pet one of the water pokemon who had affectionately butted its head against his palm.

Hey, gorgeous,” he mumbled, his head feeling a little dizzy from the flickering of images rushing through his mind, it all not settling right in his heart; leaving behind a burning trace of anger and frustration like indigestion in his chest. As the Mantine cooed, a glow of light suddenly split the sky in two beyond the curling of the waves, dragging Angelo’s gaze upwards with a furrowed brow. “Mind giving me a lift?

Angelo stood confidently on the back of the Mantine as it began to swim towards the rift, salt water spraying around them as the pokemon below split through the surf. He was suddenly transported back to Alto Mare and the Tour, of standing on the water chariots as his left-behind Feraligatr propelled them, his stance reflecting someone who had adapted to balancing on maybe a surfboard or the like.

He wasn’t, however, used to performing tricks but, as the Mantine playfully pushed them up over a wave, he figured there was no harm in catching some air; Mantine launching Angelo upwards with a thrilling clench in his chest. There was no harm… Wasn’t that what he had told himself as he performs a high-risk front flip.

Okay, what the hell—

Lars blinked and saw that the surroundings had changed yet again, only this time the ‘event’ they had warped into was one he was… actually present at. Oh, shit.

What would happen if he encountered his past self here?! Was there going to be some kinda déjà vu involved?! Looking at the incoming Mantine, he looked over at and with a look of sheer exasperation on his face.

“Well, shit,” was all he could say. “Okay, basically…”

He then attempted to give the two the best run-down as he could remember—and was not surprised to see other people attempting the highest-scoring trick in the book.

“Oh, wait—“ he was about to continue when he saw that there was something in the sky.

“Aim for the sky. Don’t fall behind!” he added a few moments later before bracing himself with sheer trepidation and boarding the Mantine that was floating near him in the surf. Hilariously, he recognized this as the one he had ridden—the very same one in the contest? It had the same heart-shaped scar mark near one of its fins he remembered noticing for a few moments before attempting to get those tricks in vain.

Taking a deep breath, he looked over nervously at the rift and hoped the two were following him as he braced himself on the Mantine’s slippery back—riding into the sky.

It was ride, or die—hopefully not literally, but you got the point.

• Where the fuck are they now?
• Either way, Lars knows how this one goes
• Turns to Evan and Skyler and explains the bare bones of what happens—
• And then points out the rift in the sky
• He gets on a Mantine, hopes they can keep up
• Time to ride and die
• For 3x Magikarp Splash!
• Any League-affiliated people are free to interact

it should be noted that valerio has no experience with mantine surfing.[break][break]

the shock has taken over him as he realizes he is paddling through the waters of history. time shifts once more, like it has always been, and begins to beg him out of history when he notices a rift transform fragments of space into the ocean's surface. but as soon as the rift materializes, it is also speedingly disappearing. that is when he realizes he needed to get there as fast as he could, even when he needs to ride a mantine.[break][break]

one of them affectionately cuddles over valerio and pushes him to ride it. valerio straps his feet into the mount, pets the stingray creature, and entrusting it with his life.[break][break]

“now, go!” the mantine rides with waves before it leaps off the surface, doing a fairly dangerous move as it stumbles into the air and into the tear of time and space.[break][break]

Thomas' fall through space and time winds up with him falling into the waters below. As he swam back up to the surface, taking in the air, he would notice a somewhat familiar sight. It was the Summer Festival from over a year ago. Specifically, the Mantine Surfing Competition, one that he didn't actually compete in. Rather, Thomas spent that summer drinking, and shaking soda bottles for a stupid game. Thomas would look around to see that a Mantine was greeting him, urging him to get on.

Thomas, seeing the rift in the distance, mounted the Mantine, and began to surf towards the rift. As he would spot something coming up from the waters below, Thomas guided the Mantine to surf up the wave, causing the duo to get some air. Perhaps in a moment of whimsy, the Elite Four member would attempt to perform some tricks while in the air. All he could do was hope that any potential wipeout didn't end with him being trapped here forever.

The Mantine would attempt to pull off the Magikarp Splash, a trick that looked simple, but took an insane amount of precision. Thomas went along with it, perhaps in some hope of one upping his father, a Mantine surfer in his youth, who could never pull off the Mantine Splash, no matter how hard he tried.

the scene changes once more without priam being able to do anything. he remains dazed before a streak of light blinds him. cheers from the crowd contrast the chaos of the earlier instances, and priam is quick to adjust himself accordingly to the times.

he slaps himself twice before he marches into the water. "you got this, priam," he psyches himself, "we'll get over it in, like, three seconds."

he wades through the beach and approaches one of the mantines in the water. it greets him with its smile, prompting priam to reflect it with his own. a smile appears on his expression for the first time in since the regirock event.

"alright, mantine, we're doing this!"

he guides the water-type through the ocean, shouting and barking as he attempts to recreate the fanciest of tricks he had seen on television before. this would be his first experience of mantine surfing though, and everything wasn't as easy as the pros do it on the other side of the screen.

[attr="class","spiral"]"Hmph."

Fernando says nothing else as he boards the Mantine. His goal is within sight and revisiting the Mantine Surf does nothing for him. Any satisfaction derived from crushing the Elite Four, the Council, and Devon means nothing in the grand scheme of things. What's more important is the few items he was able to swipe from Mossdeep.

He sails for the portal with no penchant for flashy moves.

With a flash of light after the Z-move was finished, whether or not it truly collided he wasn't sure, the result was now that he was blinded again. Though while his eye was recovering from the sudden light the familiar smell of the sea did hit him like a wall. If he hasn't been living on an island the past few years the sudden cold of the ocean's water probably would've effected him more. "How many more times of this?" he grumbles to himself wanting this damn hallucination to be over already, if that's what it all was. [break][break]


It was a Mantine that brought him out of his thoughts as the pokemon bumped into his side. Jumping up and pointing a few times before Razz actually looked up to the rift ahead. Part of him wondered how it saw him but right now didn't seem the time as he decided to ride the water pokemon. Though it seemed like it wanted to have some fun before going toward the portal. "Hey wait wait wait!" Razz protested before the mantine tried it's tricks near every time the Ranger falling off as while he was uses to his Sharpedo's high speeds, he was not used to the jumps, and spins of the Mantine.

Between one step and the next the world twists and turns and Skyler only has the time to think 'fuck, not again' before she is thurst into yet another scene. Given the last ones, she's expecting death and destruction or at least some sort of apocalyptic event. The chaos the erupts around her, however, is of a completely different source. Silver eyes blink due to the strong sunlight around her, and she finds she has to put her arm up in order to protect her vision from the brightness.

"Lars?"

Her best friend explains the whole event vaguely, but Skyler can't help but feel reassured that this time at least one of them has been here before and therefore knows what to expect. "Alright, let's go." It also helps that it is close to the ocean, Skyler's frayed nerves calming down at the scent of the familiar briny breeze. The rift in the sky is a little strange, but Skyler's definitely seen stranger now and she's quick to follow 's example.

She coos at the Mantine that approaches her, hitching a ride easily. She hopes she has the right grip - or else this is going to become very dangerous very quickly. Not because she'll fall into the waters, but because she doesn't want to get left behind in the past.

PRIMARINA TWIST
(50-100)


over the gyarados
(85-100)

Chryssa drifted through the visions. Detached. Dull. Her earlier triumph had been tempered by bitter disappointment, and her own despair seemed more vivid than the dreams. I shouldn't have fallen for that wish tag, she thought again, sitting down on the beach and curling into a ball. It didn't matter what she did here-- no one could see her. It was a trick. I knew that. If she had felt any victory before against the higher power crafting this illusion, it had effectively shown that it could play her just as easily. 

She sat, and waited for the next rift to suck her through.

But it never happened.

"Something's wrong," she murmured, looking up. Her eyes adjusted to the bright sunlight as she tried to actually make an effort to take in her surroundings. "It's not coming." Her eyes narrowed and she got to her feet, carefully propping herself up on her cane. 

There. 

Across the sea, on the edge of the horizon, the rift was closing.

Panic surged within the girl and she wrestled it back down just as forcefully. No! That's what they want you to feel! She thought, steeling herself and looked around. For the first time, she sought out the other figments, the other ghosts. Where were they? And--

They were riding the Mantine. Chryssa gaped as she watched the school of rays take off, skimming across the water with their riders. Some flew high, flipping in the air. Some flopped, tumbling off the waves with the grace of a rolled-up carpet. But one by one, the people she'd come on this journey with crossed the distance.

"Fine. I'll do it too."

This wasn't Chryssa's idea of excitement. She was an adrenaline junkie, but she liked to do so from a place of actual safety. She lived vicariously through her Pokemon, and used their power as her own. She didn't do watersports. She didn't do tricks.

But Mantine did.

Gripping the saddle tight, Chryssa felt the change in the water-type's movements and realized what was coming too late. The peak of the high wave they'd been slowly cresting was apparently too tempting to resist. "NOOOO!" she shrieked and threw her arms around the Mantine as the world spun around her. They landed again with barely a splash a moment later and began to skim a series of low waves.

With a barely-tangible fist, Chryssa pounded on the Mantine's head. She hated losing control. "Worthless, incorrigible seaspawn. I'll turn you into calimari! I'll--"  

As if in response, the Mantine launched her again, this time completely out of the saddle. This time, she couldn't just bury her face. She saw, quite distinctly, the rift on the horizon as she made air-- so close. They'd already come more than two-thirds of the way.

The waves rushed up to meet her and she arched her back, flipping slowly as she fell. It felt suddenly like the vision where they'd plummeted towards the ocean, and Chryssa instinctively righted herself in the air, and then landed back in the saddle with a jarring thump. She grabbed for the reins to stop herself from sliding off again. "My god," she said breathlessly. "I actually did it." 

Not professionally, but not dead.

She didn't know if any of those tricks were how they were supposed to be done, but her success had shown her two things. One, her light, mostly-insubstantial body was easier to control than her real one, at least when it came to acrobatics. Two, she could trust Mantine. It might not listen to her, but it was good at one thing: surfing. And if she fell, she had faith it would catch her.

"Last one," the teenager breathed, staring into the shimmering rift up ahead. She clung tight to Mantine. "Let's make it a big one."

He's focused on laurence, hesitant to let go of the other man too soon. His eyes flit between him and the blond girl. Evan goes to say something at the sight of the rift, stopping at the nudge of a mantine against his back.

Surfing of any kind, how long has it been? Quite. He hasn't seen the sands of alola in quite a while and that was the last time he'd done so. There's nostalgia in the idea and it makes him smile. "Alright friend, if you insist." there's something welcoming in the chirps of the pokemon as he makes it onto the creatures back.

"Your pick, have a little fun." speaking to the pokemon seems to set him at ease in a way that nothing else has so far. The pokemon seems eager to let him direct abd perform tricks at its own discretion.

The freedom of wind and waves keeps even from dwelling on the rift they all seem to enter. It's a moments reprieve from the never ending slide show they seem to have been caught in.

will not be able to redeem the starf berry due to the wip post.
[break][break][break]

THE MANTINE WEAVE THROUGH THE WAVES, casting skirts of seafoam and water past their fins. As the portal shudders, like an accordion about to break, the seafaring Pokemon toss your bodies at the apex of their jumps. Suddenly, the sea disappears. As you pass into another slip in time, the world reconfigures itself into the lush green of Petalburg Woods.[break][break][break]

Around you, you can see avid bug catchers wading through the tall grass. Equipped with nets, one may be able to recognize the second and third place winners of the contest, @n0ble and , seeking the biggest bug. In fact, finds a gargantuan Sewaddle and promptly captures it before moving on.[break][break][break]

[break][break][break]

The Pokemon begin to notice your presence, but can't seem to "see" you. Similarly, and like, in the past few romps through time, the human trainers see right through you. However, there is a moment during your time here, that you will physically manifest, allowing you to capture a bug-type Pokemon of your own.[break][break][break]

Another round of this weird bullshit she found herself magically in. This time the aim was a bug contest? Was that even a thing for her? Wren never participated in such things - she disliked bugs with a passion. However, she had missed the surf contest unknowingly. It was time to partake in this new experience.

She didn't care what she caught. As long as it was something and had something valuable attached. Throwing a Pokeball at total random, she aimed to get one of the swarming insects inside. She didn't care, again, what it was. Lady Luck was never on her side. She'd end up getting something terrible, she just knew it! Bouncing off the head of a random insect, it encased the Pokemon in light. Swallowing it up.

And leaving whoever judged this thing to actually measure the size of it.

One second, he was sneaking out of class and making his way to the school's first floor- the next he was hit by a wave of vertigo that sent him hurling down the flight, and seeming into his death.

The afterlife looked a whole lot like Petalburg Forest.

"Is this... heaven for Bug Catchers?" He mumbled, blinking at every other bug catcher running about. So many juniors, with little straw hats full of dreams and nets full of nothing... He almost felt nostalgic, really.

Then one of the bugcatchers mindlessly ran through him, without even noticing him.

He nearly shat bricks.

Oh god.

This wasn't heaven...

He had died and stayed as a spirit on Earth.

Xerneas have mercy, no-

A bug type suddenly approached, sniffing at him as if curious.

Doug slammed a pokeball into its face.

What in the world is going on? His vision momentarily blurs as he finds himself suddenly in a strange forest. His blue eyes dart around rapidly as he tries to grasp his situation, but there’s little time to even react.

”You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.” he curses lightly. He tries to wave over at one of the nearby trainers, but no one hears him – yet the rules of this competition are clear. Catch a bug-type pokemon.

Letting out a low and frustrated groan, he takes out a pokeball and randomly tosses it at the first thing he can see.

This sh#% is the worst...

First he'd got tossed into the ocean, and now some sweltering forest teeming with creepy crawlers?


Adrian was at least able to arm himself with a net before delving through the greenweald in earnest. Capture a big, wriggly bugger, then fuck off as fast as I can... that's the plan... I guess.

Adrian could almost recognize the shrubs and tangles of vines, yet they were somehow different to their present day equivalent. If he had to guess, these were Petalburg Woods. Rustboro wasn't too far, maybe he could just walk back to home...?

...Doubt that's where this is all headed...

In the end he could only take a moment to snatch up a rogue Bug-type pokemon, all while wondering why he'd never known about Bug Catching Contests in the past, though hardly complaining.

Better snag something useful while I'm here... Maybe a Scyther if I'm lucky...

Sadly, luck was anything but on his side lately, if being pulled into this timey-wimey bullsh#% wasn't evidence enough of his streak of ill fortune.
