[nospaces] [attr="class","omgen"] [attr="class","omgentop"]TEMPLE OF REGIROCK [attr="class","omgenmid"] DANGEROUS DISCOVERIES RAID SETTING: MID-DECEMBER FIRST POST [player]https://a.tumblr.com/tumblr_qlvgdm1RxI1yjyalbo1.mp3[/player][break][break] ROUTE 2
INTENTIONS TO PROTECT means the Head Ranger is the first to touch the energy. When his hand makes contact, nothing happens. The same is apparent with Razz. Both rangers watch as electric flashes surge into their body, harmless, phasing through them as if they weren’t there. [break][break][break]
But Ro? The moment the energy touches the Pokemon it stands to expand. Its body bursts in several places, slowly morphing into a much larger version of itself. Even Lars is pushed off as the Pokemon swells too large to fit. [break][break][break]
[break][break]
Even with the MAGNET RISE the Pokemon becomes too large for the chamber to contain. It’s very foundation starts to crumble, walls caving in, tremors shaking. It’s weight causes the ground to come loose. It give out underneath them. [break][break][break]
ROUTE 3
THERE IS A REASON the prisoner pushes them to kill. To underestimate a Megalopolan is to court death itself. Unlike the Ultra Beast they will come to know, the potency of one fresh from Ultra Space is unlike anything else in this world. To think that it can be defended against, much less stopped, discounts the impact the one from Slateport has.
[break][break][break]
Kazimir’s KING’S SHIELD holds up at first but the impact of the blast shatters it like glass. His Aegislash is valiant, stalwart despite the attack eroding at it’s defenses. The king stands tall despite the alien coup. However, a king is only one person. It cannot hope to protect his allies. Only Kazimir, and the prisoner due to his proximity, will find shelter behind the crumbling shield.
[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
“Protect your world,” the prisoner begs weakly from behind him. The raw energy of the MIND BLOWN burns at his clothes. They don’t catch on fire but they reveal the Megalopolan underneath.
[break][break][break]
“Your world is truly beautiful…”
[break][break][break]
Stormy’s attempt at withstanding the blast is met with more success. The power of her Z-move, AEGIS IGNITION, holds up with the fortitude of Galar’s royal guards. As they remain behind it then so too will they find security from the lethal attack. Her idea to run is the single smartest idea made among anyone who has ever dared step foot onto these hollowed grounds.
[break][break][break]
Their escape is paved by Zac’s Steelix. Should Stormy and him turn back, running outside is certain an option. However, Zac’s quick thinking force him to stay his ground. A SAND TOMB binds the Megalopolan but moving anywhere except away from the scene keep them within the blast radius.
[break][break][break]
Both Megalopolans, Blacephalon, and the very tunnel they stand within get decimated from the blast. Nothing is left. No blood, no bones, and not even stone.
[break][break][break]
Well, that’s not all true. There might be smidges of them left but they’re given only a second before an encore repeats itself. The second part of AEGIS IGNITION reflects the attack back, causing the entire buildings foundation to start to collapse.
[break][break][break]
Stormy is safe.
[break][break][break]
Zac is blown back, hurt, but nothing he won’t shrug off with time. The Beast Ball is ripped from his hand by the shockwave of the attack, shattered into pieces.
[break][break][break]
But Kazimir?
[break][break][break]
[break][break]
Separate from his allies, the only hero able to safeguard the prisoner will find the two of them buried in the rubble. There is no escape from the cave-in, a small mountain worth of boulders waiting to squish them into pancakes. Kazimir might be strong and quick enough to escape inward but the prisoner is not. Do Pokkenger heroics extend to aliens?
[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
Regardless of his actions, he will remain with the prisoner, isolated by the wall of rubble that coincidentally creates a small enough pocket for them to avoid being flattened entirely.
[break][break][break]
It is up to Stormy and Zac to decide how to proceed. Do they dig him up, or look for help.
[break][break][break]
ROUTE 4
THE RAMBLES OF A MADMAN echo within the chamber. Priam’s declaration sits unanswered while the others stare in awe. It isn’t until he touches the relic that the voice comes back in stereo.
[break][break][break]
“I’m up! I’m up! What do you want?” Heat surges through his veins as the spirit coinhabits his soul. “Oh? What’s this?”
[break][break][break]
Flames that possess no heat get siphoned from his body. They fill the souvenir causing it to light up in glows of orange and red. This power, once thought lost, causes the map Gavin leans on to come to life.
[break][break][break]
Each idol starts to crumble. Somewhere else, Regidrago’s chamber will open, left to be discovered in an excursion. Elsewhere, other temples slowly give way to those that discover well hidden entrances. As for their guardians, another source of power will have to pulse them with new life.
[break][break][break]
Alakazam’s FUTURE SIGHT is set into motion. The temple’s distortions causes the psychic attack to misfire. It doesn’t implode on them but the attack is lost somewhere within the ruin’s leylines.
[break][break][break]
[break][break][break]
“Uh oh. I don’t think that was supposed to happen.” Doubt fills Priam’s head, shared emotions conveying the predicament they will soon find themselves in. “Okay… I am watching. I believe in you!”
[break][break][break]
[break][break]
The artificial statues of the Regis come to life. Each of their dots scramble in unknown patterns before they start to turn on Cait and Gavin.
[break][break][break]
Regice aims its arms and fires an ICE BEAM with an intensity that rivals Laurence Anderson’ Articuno.
[break][break][break]
Registeel levitates forward, looking to crush the underboss with the strength of Balder Schwartz in his avatar prime.
[break][break][break]
Priam, the unknowing perpetrator of this chaos, is unaffected.
ROUTE 1 A TRICK MASTER IN THE MAKING, Mateo undoes the bind to the chandeliers without knowing what they do. The awkward pause between him and his Lucario downplay the significance of his actions. Among those he releases, one exhibits a sturdy enough rope for both him and his Pokemon to use to descend. Time for a dynamic entrance!
[break][break][break]
Down below, out of his view, Adrian and Dahlia enter the chamber despite being worse for wear. Their risking taking leads to an impeccable timing. For every action has consequences.
[break][break][break]
[break][break]
Some of the chandeliers line up exactly with their location. Adrian, still dizzy from his injuries, is unable to evade the rocky fixture that pelts him in the face. Dahlia’s and her Dragonite don’t see it coming as well. Theirs lands straight from above.
[break][break][break]
TRUE PATH
POINTED AGGRESSION finds its way to the avatar of death. Rather than reside and rule over the phenomenon, it seems like Adrian is made to embrace it. The moment he recovers enough from his injuries to be anything short of blacked out, the Regirock stirs.
[break][break][break]
It may not be Necrozma. Nor will many consider it as potent as Yveltal or Giratina. But here, in this tomb, Regirock is a God unequal.
[break][break][break]
Angelo’s wish is it’s command. Adrian, with his SHINIGAMI EYES, will be able to see a binding tether of light between Regirock, Angelo, and Skyler. What that means, he can only assume, but the implication should be obvious for the one who can see the unseen.
[break][break][break]
The obelisk of a Pokemon lumbers forward with an impressive speed. It swings its mighty pillar arms with impunity, crushing ground and flesh alike. Its strike will leave a devastating crater in the ground, deep enough to create a small basement in its wake.
[break][break][break]
[break][break]
The attack misses, narrowly, but the impact will launch Adrian, Dahlia, and Katherine a few feet into the air. Despite their distance and separation, the Pokemon’s wingspan is impressive enough that a single wide-arc swing is enough to send all of them flying should they have no answer for the two-hit combo.
[break][break][break]
It is at this time that the others join them. Should Mateo descend, he will find his place in the chamber, able to join in combat. But there is still people above even him.
[break][break][break]
[break][break]
The roof crumbles from the weight of a DYNAMAXED Metagross. Lars and Razz find themselves among the debris, in free fall several dozen meters above. They both will have time to bring out a Pokemon to stop their fall. However, for some unknown reason, Lar’s Pokeballs won’t work. Might have something to do with his Metagross.
[break][break][break]
Unfortunately, all three of them, along with several fragments of the roof are slated to land right on top of Katherine. Uncanny timing from two separate dangers means she will not have the time or space to get out of the way from both those above and Regirock.
[break][break][break]
Her WISH reinvigorates her enough to recognize the catch-22. It feels more potent in the throes of danger. Adrenaline, along with Giratina’s influence, push her to perform at a higher level.
[break][break][break]
