[attr="class","swarmText"]

FROM METEOR FALLS' WRECKAGE, a swarm of Claydol rush out of its exposed caves. Although Hoenn is attempting to rapidly reconstruct the mountain using their Pokemon, alongside Champion and her Groudon (affectionately dubbed Clifford), the work takes days. As the Claydol flee, they attack the nearby workers— and also offer nearby trainers a chance to catch them.[break][break]

what will you do?

Meteor Falls. To think that she'd be returning so soon. Admittedly, it was a breath of fresh air to see everyone repairing the mountain with their pokemon. Seeing the massive Groudon always kind of surprised her, but at this point, she had already seen so many legendary pokemon and other insane surprises that it didn't faze her nearly as much as it would have several months ago.

Currently, she was here on a much simpler mission. Various Claydol were pouring out from the caves and slowing down production, so what better way to help out than to fight a few of them with her own Claydol? She quickly sent out Dizzy, as it seemed to eye up its opponents near the water's edge.

Ruby stood her ground, quickly pointing her hands forwards as she shouted a command. "Rapid Spin, take it down!" Dizzy would silently leap into action, spinning almost straight out to sea, bashing against one another with brutal force. She never understood battle tops before... but now? It certainly made a bit more sense as the fight drifted further out to sea, spinning endlessly and slamming their bodies into one another, pushing the water aside with their ferocious velocity.

Now this, was fun to watch.

He wasn't the type to really get creeped out by pokemon, never had been- he grew up with a ghost piece of coral, after all. However, there were some that unnerved him just a little, and the Baltoy line happened to be among them. The unmoving and unblinking eyes, the fact that they just spun around without ever changing their expression... It was creepy as hell, wasn't it?! It definitely was creepy as hell! He didn't want one, it'd look creepy! But...

... He had to admit that currently, his team was still a little lacking in oomph, and if he really wanted to make it anywhere in team rocket, he'd have to upgrade a little. Get a good team going. Make sure that he was king of the hill- and this swarm did prove a pretty good opportunity. He didn't really have to explain his presence too in-depth, after all, he was just being a good samaritan right now, doing everyone a favor by eliminating one or two of the would-be beyblades.

"Alright, Muscle." He pet the side of his rough dragon's side, the Druddigon snarling. "Iron head. Straight ahead." Muscle doesn't need any more words of affirmation nor much other commands as she charges forwards, spiky head held low as the scales on it begin to shine in a more metallic manner, roaring with an almost manic quality as she begins to batter through the stream of Baltoy and Claydol, on the occasion hitting a wall only to then turn around and charge again. Letting 'er rip.

It was strange the way these pokemon looked and functioned like spinning tops.

He wasn't aware enough of history from a inventions stand point to determine if tops existed before the pokémon did.

Not that it mattered much, it was on the Rangers to keep swarms and en masse gatherings of pokémon from flooding the streets or altering ecosystems where they congregated.

Nothing stopped a spinning top better than a wall, aside from a forceful wind pushing the top places it didn't want to go at speeds it didn't want to reach. "Go Pidgey."

Tiny as she was the winds always seemed to be on her side. "Use TAILWIND to increase your speed and after that, use whatever you want just scatter these tops to the four winds." More diligent than his Toucannon, less curious than his Fletchling the Pidgey called down the winds and Sénon simply watched the show.



Not that show.

Cycling up the mountain, Angelo had taken up a request to deliver some equipment to the workers who were helping to restore Meteor Falls, thankfully his Acro Bike was more than up to the task of the rugged terrain. This was his first trip of the day and although he had a few more cases to go, he had every intention of coming back up here to help out later, to see if there was anything he could do in the restoration efforts. Things had been crazy lately, for the whole region as well as those being caught up in the terrors of war, he wanted to keep himself busy to help where he couldn’t before. It also helped him, keeping active, to keep his mind off all of the carnage…

Man, steeper than I thought…” He pants at the top of a rocky outlook and as he squints, looking across the expanse of rubble to find a ranger to deliver the equipment strapped to the back of his bike, Angelo fails to notice a sudden explosion of spinning Claydol bursting out of a cavern behind him, not until the trembling earth underneath him dislodges a patch of ground from beneath him. Suddenly he’s launched forward, a startled cry ripping from his throat, as he plunges down the mountain path at max speed, wind scratching his eyes until they water and his ride catching serious air. Right into a unsuspecting Claydol. “Aggggh, look outttt!

Vesper was all for the destructive powers of Claydol. They were round - like a bomb. They blew up - like a bomb. Could they be any less like a bomb? Think of the possibilities for Rocket and herself if she managed to capture one. "Kommo-o, Zangoose" she released her Pokemon in a flash of light.

Was she here to help the workers? No. She was here to beat the senses out of Claydol! "Get 'em!" she just happened to be in the vicinity. Might as well make the League folk think she was helping out. Zangoose rushed the nearest spinning psychic top and Crush Claw'ed it. Kommo-o was slower but no less destructive. There was no need to even describe what he had begun to do.

Too gory for a kid's show. Phrasing, boom!

It seemed as if war simmered out rather than just outright ended. That's how history always made it seem. Some treaty was signed and then that was it. Turned out, that wasn't the case. While he should have been cooling his heels somewhere after Mauville, there was more work to be done, and more pokemon to potentially capture.
[break][break]
This time it was an army of spinning tops surging from under Meteor Falls. Andy had always found this particular pokemon to be a little creepy. Still, he wasn't going to let that stop him. Perusing the ruins he waited until he found a bunch of the little bastards in close proximity. It was almost as if Epitaph knew what he was going to say before he said it.
[break][break]
''Hit'em with a shadowball. And try to get as many at once as possible.'' His gengar's grin seemed to widen as he began charging to move before the boy even finished his command. As it flew forward to in turn fling a several of the clay tops in different directions, he pulled a pokeball from his stash, hesitating. Could he really stomach one of these things always spinning around somewhere?

Eva simply wanted to investigate the aftermath of Meteor Falls but instead was now having to deal with a swarm of Claydol.

There were enough people here already that she was comfortable leaving it up to them and sneaking away and she was almost home free until some of the Claydol got in her way.

Eva cursed under her breath; she didn’t have time to be dealing with this. She’d release her Greninja and Serperior, one using Hydro Pump and the other Leaf Storm to stop the Claydols that were spinning sporadically and coming straight for her. If she had to she’d fight her way through these annoying pests.

Meteor Falls.

Izumi sighed—just how much of the war had she missed? Shaking her head, she looked at the… crater that was slowly being rebuilt around the area.

Just what the hell had happened here? She could only wonder what Josh had been doing while this shit was going down.

We lived through this and we didn’t even notice what was happening—wait. Wait, wait, hold up… she thought, before reaching for her phone and dialing ’s number.

There was a lightbulb that clicked on in her head, and she wondered if one of his new Pokémon had something to do with this shit.

She was waiting for him to pick up when something caught her eye—an incoming Claydol, glowing and just about ready to explode. Wait, explode?

Oh, hell no!

“Not today, Satan,” she muttered as she chucked an empty Pokéball at it before turning away and waiting for her husband to pick up the phone.

The ground rumbles beneath her feet and it throws both her and her Donphan off balance. The pair hesitate as they approach the mouth of the caves, as it seems that they have arrived late to the party. Whatever people are inside already excavating and rebuilding have unearthed the jackpot of undisturbed and now disturbed Claydol.[break][break]

She can hear the grumble of Bailey's Groudon as it shakes the ground alongside the incoming swarm. Stormy quickly shifts to the side, skidding on uneven gravel as she makes a last-second dash to avoid being slammed around like a ping-pong ball between the bodies.[break][break]

Donphan does her best to avoid taking damage as well, but her reactions enable her to rapid spin her way through the fray. Claydol and Baltoy scatter as the bounce off of her rubbery hide, and Stormy waits with bated breath to capture whatever might fall to her Pokemon's attempts.[break][break]

CLAYDOL SWARM (EXCITING EXCAVATIONS)

The Claydol was not happy. It watched as the intruders cleared away rock and stone from its home left and right, and decided that it was time to avenge this.

It targeted one man, with a shock of blue hair, who stood apart from the rest, watching the Claydol with appraising eyes. Taking aim, it began to spin rapidly, whirring towards him and attempting to knock him off the mountain.

There was a ghostly laugh, and a Gourgeist materialized in front of the man. The Claydol felt a mild stinging in its side as a seed latched onto it.

It was confused. The seed was not an explosive projectile, as many grass-types tended to utilize. Nor was it draining its vitality and restoring the Gourgeist. What was this?

The question was answered when suddenly, the Worry Seed sucked away the Claydol's ability to Levitate. The ground-type dropped like a stone, plummeting down the mountain, and could only watch helplessly as the blue-haired man and his Gourgeist grounded more and more of its kind.

CLAYDOL SWARM (EXCITING EXCAVATIONS)

She had come not so much to assist as to investigate, to search the ruins of what had been Meteor Falls for signs of any truth to her visions. It was hard to recall specific details of what she’d seen happen here—and harder yet to see anything at all through the destruction.

In any case, reconstruction efforts by the local building team had caused quite a stir, and Chryssa found herself drawn like a Carvanha to blood when the beams of psychic energy began going off from the half-exposed caves within the mountain.

Floating on her Probopass, legs arranged delicately over the top of its cap, Chryssa reached the site in time to see a swarm of panicked, crudely-shaped creatures fleeing one of the still-smoking openings. The sight was phenomenal— alien and unnerving, it send shivers of delight down the girl’s spine.

They were levitating by some psychic power, but so many were emerging that they threatened to collapse one newly-constructed tunnel. ”Oho, what's this?” Chryssa called wickedly, triumphantly. ”Arran, use Gravity—Fall, creatures of the earth! Back to the clay which birthed you!”

The Probopass’s red cap shuddered down over its eyes as if the girl had pressed a switch. There was a hum of energy and the Claydol in the tunnel sank to the ground as if borne down by a tremendous weight, stacking up like dominoes as they jostled and struggled against one another. More piled up in the tunnel beyond. Still astride her mustached steed, Chryssa counted them with her little finger, posed as if thinking carefully. She was clearly enjoying herself.

”Eenie, meenie, miney mo...”

She tossed the ball like a grenade into the swarm. Regrettably, none of them exploded. Too bad. I was hoping for a dramatic exit.

It was quite a sight to behold. In all his excavations there, Remiel never could have imagined that so many Claydol had been lying dormant deep in the depths of Meteor Falls. This called for more investigation. The local archaeologists would have a field day. It was quite a shame, however, that he would be too mired in politics to participate himself.[break][break]

But the appearance of this swarm still required his attention. If not for the innocent workers nearby, then for the draciary he was building on his large estate, at the base of Meteor Falls' western slope. It just so happened that Hammurabi and himself had managed to arrive on the scene just in the nick of time. In other words, just before one of the workers was flung across the valley by a RAPID SPIN.[break][break]

Not needing a command to swoop in and counter with a RAPID SPIN of its own, Remiel's larger and more detailed Claydol was sure to make quick work of his smaller Claydol opponent.[break][break]

It just sat there, spinning fast enough to be a blur, and Adrian wasn't too sure whether he wanted to try and make a move against it. If it came running at him, even a slight bump at that rotational speed would be painful, presumably not unlike road rash.

I think I'll pass on that... But then again...

He'd back off a comfortable distance before lobbing a pokeball at it and immediately ducking, because f#!% all that if it came flying back.
