"-so I said, 'No soap, radio!'" Zac laughed. His mirth was cut short as a blast of accelerated water rocked the tower, showering Zac's impromptu party with sizzling spray.
"INSOLENT HUMANS. HAVE YOU NO HUMILITY?!"
Volcanion's iron hypothetical rang across the land, shocking the assembled trainers. Zac's jaw went slack at the sight of the unknown creature, who had apparently taken personal offence to their work. What is it? Zac thought, stunned. Is it a Pokemon? But it spoke!
    "I DO NOT TRUST THE MOTIVES BEHIND THE MANUFACTURING OF THIS MONUMENT. EVEN WORSE, IT IS AN EYESORE. I SHALL DESTROY IT. DO NOT GET IN MY WAY."
The creature commenced its aquatic assault, the tower shuddering with each blast. Chips of black rock and burning spray fell like hellish rain, and Zac's attention was split a dozen ways. "Wait!" he called to the creature, as he bent down to grab his bag. Why does it hate the tower? Are we next?
   Volcanion didn't wait. The tower shook with each blast. Zac felt the shudders running through the ground. The air was thick with turbulent steam and black lava dust.
    Something pinged in his mind and Zac let out a sharp whistle, calling back his Minior. "Lucretia! Davenport!" Zac called, and he pointed at the creature. "Keep moving, stay safe."
The Minior zipped off, unnoticed as they circled around the furious Volcanion. Zac crept forward, towards the metal beast. I need to stop it! Save the tower!
    Melody's Reggae/Kanto-Pop playlist persisted amidst the chaos, the catchy beat of ~Misty♡Explosion~ clashing with the booming, off-beat impacts of Volcanion's attacks.
The memory of a woman dressed in spelunking gear popped into Zac's head, and he almost snapped his neck as he turned to look at the tower. Michi! Is she up there? Safe? Where's Matchan?

Chu-e was about to pop off a very rude reply to Alexei Ivanov when that weirdo volcano thing... just busted in. Well, damn, this was really turning into a proper party. But, he did scowl when it spoke and then when Zac Ramsay's weird sky babies started to circle it. Sighing, he grabbed the 'oregano' brownies from the bag and opened them up. Unlike anyone else, he simply took a few steps forward and waved to the pokemon. Everyone was always SO eager to fight these things. If it could talk it was probably like... some lesser god or something. Why did everyone think they could kick a lesser god's ass? Sure, there were like ten people here, but didn't they know you caught more flies with honey with vinegar?

"It's just art! Really ugly art, but still just art! I think!" He called out in answer to the weird pokemon. "Do you want a brownie? They're good!" To show the pokemon they weren't poisoned, he plucked one of the corner pieces (the best pieces) out and crammed it in his mouth, finishing it in a ghastly display that took only two or tree bites. He hummed before taking a few inching steps forward, not wanting to get too close, and then leaned over to sit the entire pan on the ground at a healthy distance away. That was the pokemon could decide for itself if it wanted to eat the brownies or not.

That done, he stepped back and went back over to the crowd of people. He had little to interest in this other than to watch it play out. Shame it had cost the weed brownies. Chu-e had wanted to feed John Sullivan one and laugh at the boy.

he slowly fades away into the background when everyone else merges with the hustle and bustle of the busy construction of a tower. everyone else seems to be contributing in their own way, aside from kyle, who watches awkwardly in the middle of everything.

he would have helped too had he not been too nervous around large crowds, or if someone else told him to do something. fortunately, there wasn't anyone that pressed him to contribute, and kyle preferred it that way. anything that requires him to do work wasn't good, after all.

it was like kyle just blinked and then the unknown pokemon was suddenly before them in an instant.

"it costs way too much to take down though," he commentates blankly in response to the volcanion's statement. he jolts back to the reality of it being a dangerous pokemon when it attacks it. "oh."

seeing the superpowered scald, kyle figures that maybe it's a move that he can take for his smeargle. if it wasn't, an easy trip to the move deleter can fix the problem. he releases the pokemon and has it sketch the move.

"sigurd!" he yells for his heatran, "get back!" kyle turns to Zac Ramsay, being the person responsible. "what's the plan here? prioritize everyone else's safety and ditch the tower or try to fend it off?"

he knows nothing about the strange pokemon before them and its capabilities. for all he knows, it's much more powerful than the ultra beasts that ravaged parts of sinnoh during the three day way.

"i have no idea how to reason with it..."

as the construction of the staircase was underway the booming voice that echoed through the sky was an unwelcome surprised that rocked both kazimir on his flying perch and his lycanrock on his stony edge. as the blonde looked around below him to see if the voice came from above it wasn't until he tilted his head upward, in that same second a large beast suddenly flew past him only a few centimeters off from clipping noctis as it descened onto the ground below and issued some kind of warning about them trying to build something like a tower to space. it hated their little tower? what for?!
[break][break]
before a proper answer could even be considered it unleashed a powerful stream of water against the side of the tower, cracking the molten earth foundation and leaving a crater in its wake. kazimir gritted his teeth and with a grip on his corviknight lead the two of them to the ground, however kazimir wasn't looking to simply put himself between the groups, no instead as soon as he was over the legendary beast he hopped off his corviknight and landed on top of the volcanion's back.
[break][break]
"hey! people put their blood and sweat into building this! you think i'm just gonna let ya wreck it cause you think its gaudy or something?! fat chance! now c'mon and turn around and get your big red butt outta here before things get ugly yeah? c'mon hiyah!" he screamed as he kicked the sides of the pokemon with his feet like he was a common ponyta.

They would never know how hungry the Heatran were, or whether they’d see a middle-aged human woman as the real meal being delivered. One moment, two hungry-looking Heatran were bearing down on Michiko, their riveted iron jaws opening wide to take in the rock cakes (or her head, it was unclear).

The next, a concussive blast of water was spraying the tower from afar, flash-cooling molten rock and causing it to crack under the pressure.

Michi felt the rumble under her feet and grabbed for her emergency rope, ready to rappel back down the side of the tower. Matchan threw out two pairs of arms, blocking her. <Champ!> he said, shaking his head, and Michi saw the waves of heat rippling from the stone. Her stomach sank. If she tried to rappel down that, she’d grill herself!

“It’s hot!” she gasped, shrugging off her track jacket. Thank goodness she’d been at Jazzercise before this and still had a workout outfit on.

It was still hot, and Michi repeated her sentiment several more times in a panic while she struggled to think of what to do. Having a car, she’d never even thought about getting a flying Pokemon in case of off-roading situations. “Matchan, w-we should... make a sign!”

<Maaa...> Matchan was starting to feel the effects of the oregano. He was already a calm dude, and he just couldn’t find it in himself to get worked up about the situation (a powerful elemental Pokemon attacking the ten-story structure they were currently standing at the top of.)

“A sign,” Michi repeated herself, “To show... show everyone we are, OK! Also show the Pokemon we are here, and not to hurt us please! One, two, three!”

She stood on the edge of the tower, making a big O with her arms. Her legs were trembling. Matchan and the Heatrans would protect her until everyone else drove it off, right? Michi was confident everyone would do their best, and not forget she was here! On the tower!

... Nobody was forgetting, right?!

OOC: so last time, michiko climbed the tower to feed heatran rock cakes... so please do not let volcanion destroy it before at least rescuing her ;_; save the princess goooo

Doug wheezed as Zac finished his joke, lurching forward while holding his stomach. They were all just having a grand ol' time now that they had run through several things that needed to be done.

Doug had been put in charge of logistics- and had managed taken the assignment in stride, simply nodding at the time and taking the money offered. He had certainly managed to make a few higher brass friends, most of all his commanding officer and Eva Morales. With a few promises, he could probably manage the job alright.

Everything was going fine and dandy.

But this is Hoenn.

A massive blast of water rocked the tower and jolted them all out of their reverie.

"INSOLENT HUMANS. HAVE YOU NO HUMILITY?!"

Well. This was new. If somebody came to put a stop to them, he expected it to be a League official with a cease and desist letter, not a pokemon he had never even seen before, much less one that could speak human.

A Mythical Pokemon? Doug didn't recognize it from any myths of the top of his head, but frankly, he hardly had the time to proccess his thoughts with all that was suddenly happening.

The rocking of the tower was loud, making him glance back worriedly- and notice Michi at the top, making signals with her arms that were clearly of the 'total distress and this is totally not okay' variety. Totally.

His eyes popped wide open.

"Crud!" He hissed, turning his gaze towards the monster, his gaze narrowing as he broke into a sprint towards it. He slapped Zac in the back as he caught, up shouting. "Ya got pokemon of all types, right?! Send a flier to get the Messy lady!"

As for the Legendary- they needed time. Doug didn't make himself any illusions that they could stop it from destroying the admittedly flimsily constructed tower, specially if they pissed it off and it went on a rampaging offensive.

As he ran towards the large pokemon, he caught Kazimir's frame dropping down upon it, trying to... Kick at the monster from atop its head, apparently.

What.

"What the- Get off before you hurt yourself!" He shouted to the large man; what the heck did he think kicking a pokemon of that size would do, beyond pissing it off?!

"Oi, Oi, OI!" He screamed at the Legendary Pokemon , throwing a pokeball out and releasing Garo out of his pokeball. "Get him to listen!"

The Orbeetlle took in his surroundings, immediately realized who the target was... And essentially blaring inside its mind with its telepathy, trying to call attention.

"Just wait a moment, please!" Said Doug to the Legendary, both shouting and projecting his thoughts towards it through Garo. He wasn't too careful, unfortunately, running up to the monster, dropping flat to the floor in a panic as jets of water soared through the air. "Our friends are still on the tower! Let us get them off at least, please!"

Then he noticed Ki's brownies at its feet.

Huh. They were trying to poison it?

It’s amazing what you can miss after one simple bathroom break. Only in Hoenn you could come back to find a sudden increase of visitors, a doubled in height tower and an unimpressed, unknown pokemon attempting to tear it down with steaming water cannons.[break][break]

Blissfully unaware, Angelo slips back outside from Zac’s house, blue eyes falling on two familiar faces. Alexei Ivanov and Chu-e Choi . “Hey guys, when did you two ge-“ His voice trails off, whether of its own accord or because its drowned out by the sheer chaos of the situation, is debatable. “What the flying fuck…” [break][break]

SPOILER: Click to show
[break][break]

Orion bounces over to him then, Angelo having left her outside with the other Lycanroc to continue building the stairway to heaven, looking unbothered by the turn of events as she sways her tail back and forth. The courier barely registers her sniffing at his left jacket pocket – where he usually keeps the treats – he’s far too busy taking in the surroundings. Zac and Doug shouting orders, baked goods (damn, he’d missed out on the snacks!) being shoved under the gigantic arrival’s nose and… [break][break]

It doesn’t matter whether he’s a master of composure or not, there’s a distinctively nervous edge to blue eyes as he catches sight of his Mach Bike, still thankfully where he’d left it but perilously close to all the ‘action’. The courier resists the urge to run out in front of the talking beast to save it just in case a stray blast of water went that way. [break][break]

If my bike gets trashed by a pokemon art critic, I’m going to be so fucking pissed… [break][break]

Saving his bike would have to wait however, there was someone stuck up on the tower. Someone called ‘Messy Lady’ as eloquently put in by John Sullivan , as he requested Zac Ramsay to send some flying types up there to help. “I’ve got her. You guys look after the party crasher.” He turns to Alexei Ivanov as he fishes a pair of pokeballs out of his pocket, shooting the gym leader a look, brow pinched and blue eyes sharp – deathly serious. “Don’t let my bike get trashed and please... Please save me a goddamn brownie, Alex.”[break][break]

Leaping atop of Rhea, Angelo flies his pair of Charizard up the tower, weaving past billowing steam until the form of a woman and her Machamp could be seen. Damn, they’d built pretty high since he’d been gone… [break][break]

“Hey! Zietta!” Calling out to michiko maeda , Angelo guides his Charizard (one for them and the other for her Machamp) to float closer towards the platform in which she stood, squinting through the rising steam and spray. “Think someone ordered a lift? Can you reach?” He stretches a hand out to her for her to take.

Melody was happily watching along as the tower was being built, she knew she'd most likely just get in the way...but when a sudden pokemon came and was suspicious of what they were doing here. "Hey!" she called out to it as a small bit of anger and annoyance was building in her voice. "You cant do that! This is a monument to their friendship and unity!" she shouted at him and watched as everyone else also protested...wait this pokemon could speak? Melody hadn't ever heard a pokemon speak before...it must be ancient and powerful...should she respect it's desires...? She was puzzled for a few moments....and then reaffirmed her actions. [break][break]

As the blasts of water fired at the tower Melody tried to counter the attack "Rilaboom! drum beating!" she said as rilaboom immediately slammed on his drum's causing vines to grow and block the volcanion's water attack. "Reinforce the tower's foundation!" she said as it followed her orders. Foliage began to grow around the base of the tower and wrapped and coiled around it hopefully giving it more support. She turned her attention over to the strange pokemon "You have no right trampling over their hard work! This is a symbol of their friendship!" she said as she began to speak a bit too passionately, she tended to get worked up on stuff like this as she always tried to appreciate the beauty of everything. So someone trampling all over someone else's feelings hit her sore spot. "I wont let you destroy this!" she shouted as she placed her hand outwards towards the pokemon. Melody then decided to switch the song playing to one more fitting for combat and one rilaboom could use. "Rilaboom! Primarina! Give him a performance he'll never forget! Both of you hyper voice!" as the track began to play and rilaboom began his drumming as the pokemon directed powerful soundwaves towards volcanion

Just as he was about to reach in and grab a few cookies for himself to much on, Alexei heard a voice he never thought he would hear again.

The last time he’d heard it was almost two years ago—and in a different location, to boot.

Looking up at the sudden arrival, Alexei’s eyes grew wide enough to pop out of their sockets—out of everyone else assembled here at the moment, it was clear that he was the only one who knew what this Pokémon was. Even if he didn’t know it by name, he certainly knew it by reputation.

Thank the flying fuck he didn’t have Zelle with him. He wondered how weird shit would get if he did.

Hearing a familiar voice calling to him, he caught sight of angelo vestri before watching as the courier released a pair of Charizard before flying upwards.

“Be careful!” he called out as he made to move towards where the courier’s bike had been parked. Hoping the other wouldn’t mind if he took it out for a spin just to get it out of the way, he deftly swung himself on it and rode the bike down and out of the danger as fast as possible, leaving it in a safer place—well away from the magma tower where everyone else present was now focusing their attention on.

He could feel the heat haze as he returned back, still carrying the supply of baked goods—

Alexei wondered if it was a good idea to share what little he knew. Well, everyone seemed to be attacking it or driving it away, but—why in the ever-loving fuck would there be brownies…

Well, what the flying fuck, indeed.

All he could do was stare up at the strange pipe-like beast in terror, before aiming his PokéGear at it and attempting to gather more information—the last time he’d only been able to get bare scraps. This time, though?

He was here to get as much information as possible!

Plenty of other attendees arrived to this fool party. Some he recognized from other fool expeditions, others he didn't. The crowd of trainers all contributing to whatever was happening here was making him a little anxious, and he wasn't sure rather he should gravitate towards John Sullivan or angelo vestri. Angelo would be prodding and Doug would be weird.

All of the chatter tempts him to let Bernie do his thing and take off on Spectress to continue with his – well whatever he was doing before he stopped here. If anything came of it he could demand royalties from his contributions later. However, Hoenn was gonna Hoenn. When the tower got doused with steam, cool water specklettes showered down over him.
[break][break]
It ruined his hair.
[break][break]
What the fuck is it now?! Lo and behold, some god tier pokemon had shown up to be mad. How did he know it was an obscure legendary? Well, the ability to speak was a pretty big indicator. For a moment he wondered if he was hearing things, or perhaps the words were psychically broadcast. Either way, after the initial shock he realized it was only there to complain.
[break][break]
And destroy apparently.
[break][break]
''Does every super pokemon have to look stupid? Is it a rule or something?'' He mumbled to himself as he started releasing pokeballs. Epitaph slid up from his shadow looking concerned at the situation. Here they were again. ''Gengar...'' The trainer shrugged. ''It's Hoenn. Like I am starting to suspect stupid shit falling out of the stratosphere is a region feature at this point.''
[break][break]
His heatran wandered back over to him since things were deteriorating. Plenty of trainers were yelling their protests at the ringbacked monster. Honestly, the Galarian boy could have cared less about the tower. It was a hair brained idea from the start. Andy had other concerns about the creature's sudden presence to impede their progress.
[break][break]
''Yo! Where the fuck have you been?! This region's been getting its ass kicked and you just now decide to show up over this silly shit?! Where were you in the three days war!? Fuck if I'm going to respect some shithead who can't be bothered unless it's pushing over a mud hill!'' It grated on him when power and authority was only used on the path or least resistance and danger.

"Michiko!" Zac shouted, trying to get a glimpse of the woman at the top of the tower. Another blast of steaming water shot towards the construction, but Melody Miro 's Rillaboom blocked most of the spray with its powerful vines. "Michi! Are you okay!" Zac called through his cupped hands, walking backwards across the lawn.
    There she was, standing at the top of the tower, making a big 'O' with her arms. The universal symbol for 'Okay'. Zac let out a sign, but his relief was short lived. Kazimir Wynter launched into battle against the intruder, fighting against a storm of tentacles and high pressure blasts of hundred-degree steam.
People were yelling, Chu-e Choi was running at the attacker with a peace offering of baked goods, and every few seconds the tower was rocked by another blast. Zac had to think, fast. It wasn't his strong suit, but some situations inevitably put you out of your comfort zone, ya know?
    John Sullivan , however, was quick to act, and established a psychic link with the creature. With all the fighting and K-Pop going on, it would be a necessary part of communicating with the attacker.
Think Zac, think! He looked back up at Michi, who was still making the big O with her hands. Bingo.
Zac ran over to Doug, speaking into the shell of the Orbeetle that had created the psychic link. "You don't like our monument?" Zac asked the creature. His voice was lost in the riot but his message was carried straight into the monster's mind.
"IT IS A MONUMENT TO VANITY. TO HUBRIS. TO HUMANITY'S UNBOUNDED GREED."
    "That's a bit harsh mate! It's not even finished yet. It hardly even looks like you yet." Zac said, in his most confident voice. He stated it like an indisputable fact. Like it was obvious that they had been building a monument to this unknown Pokemon the whole time.
"EXPLAIN."
    "You see the temporary ring up there?" Zac asked, pointing up to where Michi was making the 'O' shape with her arms. "It's a bit small now, but in the end it'll look just like you!"
It was a hell of a lie, but it was the best they had. Assuming the creature was a legendary was no stretch, and with any luck it would enjoy the idea of a giant, self-styled statue.
The blast of water stopped. Steam billowed off the creature in great, pensive waves.

"THIS CONSTRUCTION BEARS LITTLE LIKENESS TO MY FORM."

"Well we're only just started! Once it's done it'll look spot on." Zac said, rubbing his chain and gesturing broadly to the tower.
It wasn't a lie. They'd need to reconfigure the design, and add a whole bunch more tentacles, but it wasn't technically lying if they just hadn't done it yet.
"Actually, now that you're here would you mind if we asked you a few questions to get the shape just right? We've been flying a bit blind here to be honest."
The creature was silent, thinking. It sizzled like some great, steam-powered computer. "THIS IS UNEXPECTED." It said, finally.
"Well, uh, yeah. We wanted it to be a surprise." Zac said. Another pause. Longer. The creature surveyed the tower.
"THE RING WILL HAVE TO BE MUCH LARGER"
"Of course! Time to get back to work everyone!" Zac called to the other trainers. "We've got some serious restructuring to do!"

Shit was hitting the fan and people were picking a fight with the legendary and nobody was listening to him and was he gonna have to shoot his fucking gun at the sky to get some bloody attention?!

Apparently not. Trust Zac Ramsay to pull through when everyone else was losing their shit.

Garo buzzed uncomfortably as Zac came close to his shell and spoke towards it, glancing at Doug and recieving an immediate nod. He was quick to switch onto task, Zac's voice echoing into the Legendary Pokemon's mind as if the redhead were speaking right next to its ear.

Somehow, Zac managed to fool the creature. It would was absurd, hilarously so, and if the creature hadn't shown itself capable of blasting off the ugly side of a mountain into a smooth canvas with those tentacles of it, Doug might have laughed.

As things were, he simply sighed in relief, before turning his gaze towards Garo.

"Everyone."

His voice echoed in the others' heads, Garo taking on the arduous task of linking up all the humans present into a network of minds. Very uncomfortable work, but he had been trained for it.

"Gather 'round, please. There's been a change of plans." The assigned logistician said as he pulled out a tiny notepad and began to scribble, brow furrowing slightly. He glanced at Zac, leaning closer... despite the mind link.

"Tower ain't gonna be able to support itself if we build a statue in the middle of it. We doin' a relief?" He said, before furrowing his brow. "Or we buildin' it at the top?"

He didn't think Volcanion would be pleased if he couldn't even see the thing.

Doug turned his attention to angelo vestri, looking sheepish.

"Sorry to be a bother man, but yer a Courier expert, right?" He said. "I can get us some rations for the big guys hard at work 'ere, but we need some way to transport all of it... subtly."

Keep it low key. He had his... reservations about this whole situation.

He turned his attention towards the rest.

"If y'all got anythin' special yer willin' to bring onto the table, would love to hear it now. I'm takin' stock before goin' all out on logistics." He said. "It's fine if not- yer all already doin' plenty just helpin' us out with the construction and everything else."

He paused, before addressing the humans mentally.

"Though if any of you have pokemon that are good at digging subtly and quietly, I might have a task for 'em."

as kazimir's attempts to try and rodeo the damn thing seemed to yield no effect it was zac that managed to calm the beast down with his words. dude had a booming voice that could rival this things so it made sense in a weird but funny way as the beast started to calm down and ask questions while the blonde was still riding on top of it. still when zac told the creature that they were building a statue in its honor...the blonde raised an eyebrow.

the pokemon seemed to believe it but...would that be enough to send it on its merry way? suddenly the message by @bugcathcherdoug reached his ears, or rather mind, and he wondered what he should do. he should probably get off of this mighty creature lest he hurt himself but...perhaps he should help the lie be a bit more credible.

"uh yeah! actually its great that ya came here oh majestic creature. i mean look at that handsome face, those powerful thighs and legs, and that steam! clearly we are in the presence of greatness! if you wouldn't mind..perhaps...well staying around for a quick modeling job? we don't want to mess up your statue by accident y'know!" kazimir slyly breathed as he started to rub the beast's tentacles with a gentle touch all while putting on a flattering smirk.

Melody had heard the psychic pokemon speak to her as their minds became linked and heard out douglas's voice.. She joined the group having it's secret meeting, pondering herself what to even do. They didn't seem to take too kindly to her battle cry.. Oh god the beef cake ( Kazimir Wynter) was buying time for the group and flattering the creature...Melody kinda just sat and watched, surely it was upset with her for trying to fight back against it's attempts to exact it's will. [break][break]

But that was BEFORE she had an idea, she didn't want to go along with the plan as she was being a bit emotional but decided if the group was to work together than she had to be a team player "Yes! In fact we even prepared a performance for you to watch if you'd like to pass the time as we finish it's construction!" she said as she followed Kazimir's distraction idea. Rilaboom came up behind melody looking eager however melody decided to recall it as rilaboom wasn't the best Pokémon for this performance since she was going to need something more...majestic! Awe inspiring! Distraction worthy! She called over her primarina, maybe a duet would work! Melody whispered to her primarina before it let out a small cheer of agreeance and the two began to distract and dance with one another to hopefully keep it from continuing it's rampage.

Watching the gym leader converse with the demi-deity pokemon caused a clever smirk to tug at the corner of his mouth. It seemed like the creature would fall for it. For the impressive feat of being able to clearly and accurately communicate with humans, it seemed to be a bit of a dullard. For being irate at what it seemed a huge transgression, it was quite trusting.
[break][break]
Fucking idiot ass pokemon. We should shape this thing into a middle finger A voice that wasn't his own rang through his skull, causing the boy to wince for a moment. No such communication had been attempted like this since Mauville. Thankfully the tone of the words were familiar to him. It was Doug. It seemed the older teen was seriously going to construct a monument to the ringed creature.
[break][break]
I got plenty of water, but no diggers, he responded mentally. Were it that he knew the demands of a day's challenges before they came, but even his claydol's future sight could only take him so far in that regard. Thus far no one seemed to be putting up an argument, although he was unsure rather or not they were actually about to sculpt the monstrosity in front of them, or continue with their bonehead plan of going to space.
