[nospaces] [attr="class","omgen"] [attr="class","omgentop"]DAWN OF THE DARKEST DAY  [attr="class","omgenmid"] DEATH ENABLED EVENT SCHEDULED END: JUNE / JULY(?) REACTIONS [player]https://a.tumblr.com/tumblr_rc7qgclcO01yjyalbo1.mp3[/player] [break] PHOTON GEYSER
OBLIVION WAITS FOR NO ONE. whatever hope these LAKE GUARDIANS usher in, they require those gathered to act upon them. and that requires time that they do not have. for NECROZMA spares no quarter within its domain.
[break][break]
a gluttony for death and carnage engorges on their despair. the last light they'll ever see gathers between its hands. it looks to finish what it started, sending those that survived to meet with the fallen they'll miss so dearly.
[break][break]
[break]
but the living refuse. they are tenacious to a fault. the same faults that open up when an EARTHQUAKE juts out from underneath NECROZMA. the earth itself lashes out in defiance, while a spiteful ICE BEAM looks to freeze it from causing further harm. the orb of light within its hand flickers with the tiniest fluctuation as a DISABLE tries to shut it down.
[break][break]
these disturbances causes the attack to falter. it pulses with an unstable static that expulses smaller bursts. rays of light travel wild and aimless, vaporizing the first thing they hit.
[break][break]
the following pokemon are killed:
[break][break]
Elinor Anderson’s STEELIX [break]
Martín del Mar’s GALLADE [break]
jayden cross’s HAKAMO-O [break]
Katherine Fairburne’s SNORUNT [break]
a vicious SHADOW STORM shows signs of throwing NECROZMA off balance. a pair of DRAGON PULSE and DARK PULSE berate it from both sides. a PARTING SHOT with incredible precision strikes the attack dead center.
[break][break]
NECROZMA continues to channel its attack but the light starts to wane, threatening to short circuit. several more lasers discharge prematurely as the attacks spread out in all directions.
[break][break]
the following players must pick one pokemon to be killed:
[break][break]
Hideo Kino[break]
DUSTOX / BANETTE [break]
Arashi Akiyama[break]
NOIVERN / TYRANTRUM / RAPIDASH [break]
Killian Decker[break]
GARDEVOIR / METAGROSS [break]
mint frost[break]
NINETAILS / LUXRAY [break]
Raziel Beckett[break]
GLACEON / INFERNAPE [break]
high above, a G-MAX STUN SHOCK illuminates the darkness. TERRAVOLT rifts illuminate the YVELTAL that duets with its DOOM-DRIVEN DIRGE. these two attacks combine into a strike that lands on NECROZMA’s elongated head. from below, their attacks are encored by a G-MAX RESONANCE and ORIGIN PULSE that uppercuts from an angle that allows the four attacks to hammer down in a great pincer.
[break][break]
“MOONGEIST BEAM!”
[break][break]
but it is the parting of the DARK ZONE, the welcome return of a LUNAR ECLIPSE that puts the final nail on the coffin. the signature attack of a long forgotten pokemon joins the four, managing to damage NECROZMA enough to interrupt its attack.
[break][break]
[break]
the culmination of focus fire of many is what manages to prevent another onslaught. even against unsurmountable odds, they continue, and that’s what buys enough time for those present to fulfil the LAKE GUARDIAN’s request.
A DANGEROUS DISCOVERY
DESPITE YVELTAL’S DOOM-DRIVEN DIVERGE, the power bestowed by the LAKE GUARDIANS continue to well up inside it. the REGI RUNES glare in full view, hot pink as the pokemon starts to be consumed by these anomalous markings.
[break][break]
Adrian Malcolm will feel his arm ignite with the same symbols as he stares down their gigantic opponent.
[break][break]
it took all that just to stop it from attacking. no matter what they throw at it, a pokemon of that size, a creature that grand, cannot go down. they are mere ants. miniscule. lacking.
[break][break]
but no more.
[break][break]
DEREK HOFFMAN and Raziel Beckett will be the first to recognize the miracle. yveltal starts to expand. portions of its body swell like an inflated balloon, waiting for the rest of it to catch up. and it does. there will be no mishap like the failures back at he ANCIENT TOMB of fortree.
[break][break]
[break]
DYNERGY emits from the pokemon’s gigantified body. it surges to those near it and their pokemon DYNAMAX in response. soon, the sky is filled with the bodies of pokemon ready to beat back their oppressor.
[break][break]
among them, one pokemon seems well adjusted to being DYNAMAXED. Kazimir Wynter’s BUZZSWOLE seems to move naturally, as if the ULTRA BEAST should be used to such proportions. like with all things ULTRA SPACE, there’s no confirmation on why, just an acute observation by those present.
[break][break]
the following pokemon dynamax:
[break][break]
Adrian Malcolm’s YVELTAL [break]
Eris Halla’s AUDINO [break]
Rex Drago’s ZWEILOUS [break]
Kazimir Wynter’S BUZZSWOLE* [break]
Shizue Murasaki’S HAUNTER [break]
Thomas Benoit’S TOGETIC [break]
Yvaine Varron’S STUFFUL [break][break]
dynamax will end after your next post.
[break][break]
your pokemon have increased in size, durability, and power.
[break][break]
Kazimir Wynter's BUZZSWOLE will remain DYNAMAXED for the rest of this thread.
A POWER BEYOND
PRIMAL ENERGY STIRS from the LAKE GUARDIAN’S blessing. KYOGRE bellows with a coarse grumble as a primordial power surfaces once more. the BLUE ORB, the catalyst, comes to life but there’s something unstable with how the energy swirls. upon closer observation, the power seems to stutter, an incomplete circuit that cannot cycle through.
[break][break]
KYOGRE may undergo PRIMAL REVERSION in your next post.
[break][break]
explicitly state in your next post whether or not skyler dross activates the BLUE ORB.
those who have no catalyst find themselves vulnerable to KYOGRE’S influence. PRIMAL ENERGY brands them through proximity, polluting those who have already MEGA EVOLVED with their true forms. even without a MEGA STONE, those capable of adapting, are pushed beyond.
[break][break]
[break]
strangely enough, MATIAS SILPH will find the PRIMAL ENERGY strikes him instead of his rapidash. the excess power burns with a pain that highlights just how potent MEGA EVOLUTION is. his well deserved agony is short lived as it tapers off due to their incompatibility.
[break][break]
the following pokemon undergo primal reversion:
[break][break]
Elinor Anderson’s AGGRON [break]
Callan Young's TOXTRICITY [break]
Martín del Mar’ METAGROSS [break]
illeana reyes’s LOPUNNY [break]
DEREK HOFFMAN’s GRIMMSNARL [break]
Gwyar Wledig’s GALLADE [break]
Killian Decker’s INTELEON [break]
Greyson Connors’s STEELIX [break]
BARNABY FINCH’S ALAKAZAM [break]
Elisabeth Fiorelli’s GENGAR [break]
Alexandra Briarwood’s GENGAR [break]
Katherine Fairburne’s GENGAR [break]
Amor Rose's SCEPTILE [break][break]
primal reversion will end after your next post.
[break][break]
your pokemon have evolved beyond MEGA EVOLUTION.
[break][break]
you may change your pokemon’s moveset for the remainder of the thread. this only applies to applicable moves.
[break][break]
your pokemon may use any LEGENDARY SIGNATURE MOVE that shares the same type as them.
[break][break]
these attacks cannot be SKETCHED or COPIED by pokemon that are not primal reversioned.
[break][break]
the following moves do not apply:
[break][break]
ROAR OF TIME [break]
SPACIAL REND [break]
SHADOW FORCE [break]
JUDGEMENT [break]
RELIC SONG [break]
PRISMATIC LASER [break]
PHOTON GEYSER [break]
ETERNABEAM [break]
DYNAMAX CANNON [break]
INFINITE INFINITY
THE SHADOW ATTACKS FROM VULPIX AND COMFEY free bryan delarosa from his imprisonment. XERNEAS needs no such assistance. the INFINITY ENERGY that comes from the LAKE GUARDIANS endow the legendary with new life.
[break][break]
its FAIRY AURA starts to flourish as plant life blooms under the LUNAR ECLIPSE. a potent GEOMANCY is set off without the XERNEAS’ conscious choice, empowering those around it with vitality.
[break][break]
their wounds are healed and their spirits rekindled.
[break][break]
their very defiance is what gives them life. and with that life they strike back, harnessing their very life force into a burst of raw INFINITY ENERGY.
[break][break]
the following pokemon may use any Z-MOVE that exists or LIGHT OF RUIN.
[break][break]
this does not count as your ONE Z-MOVE per thread.
[break][break]
this only applies for your next post.
[break][break]
Tempest Quinn’s CHANDELURE [break]
oscar clayton’s BLISSEY [break]
Georgette Bluebottle’s WHIMSICOTT [break]
Lulu Flint’s NOCTOWL [break]
Beau Fontaine’S POLIWRATH [break]
luka chêne’S FLORGES [break]
jayden cross’S FLYGON [break]
Felix Gallagher’S ARCANINE [break]
kyle lopez'S SILVALLY[break]
Hideo Kino’s SURVIVING POKEMON [break]
Arashi Akiyama’s SURVIVING POKEMON [break]
mint frost’s SURVIVING POKEMON [break]
[break][break]
XERNEAS may create a TEMPORARY Z-MOVE for this thread. it does not need to be approved and you may flavor it however you like. avoid stating any effects due to the nature of this being a moderated event.
POWERFUL PAIRS
SOME POKEMON RESONATE BETTER WITH OTHERS. those able to withstand the LAKE GUARDIAN’S blessing will find themselves entwined by fate. whether it be ties of blood, or representing two halves of the same coin, their powers will manifest through another.
[break][break]
their bonding and history is rendered moot by the urgency of their plight. the powers that be tap into their innate sense of perseverance.
[break][break]
the LAKE GUARDIANS care not for the nuances of man.
[break][break]
RESHIRAM and ZEKROM may create a TEMPORARY Z-MOVE for this thread. it does not need to be approved and you may flavor it however you like. however, it must coordinate or conflict with your partner in some way. avoid stating any effects due to the nature of this being a moderated event.
[break][break]
LATIAS may MEGA EVOLVE without a MEGA STONE.
[break][break]
LATIAS and LATIOS may create a TEMPORARY Z-MOVE for this thread. it does not need to be approved and you may flavor it however you like. however, it must coordinate or conflict with your partner in some way. avoid stating any effects due to the nature of this being a moderated event.
[break][break]
also, LATIAS and LATIOS may forego creating a Z-MOVE and instead use DRAGON’S ASCENT.
[break][break]
these attacks will only be available in your next post.
ROCKET'S GLORY
THE LAKE GUARDIANS SHOW NO FAVOR between league or rocket. these factions and their politicking is strictly a human construct. trivialities like these pale in comparison to the matters at hand. by their will, SHADOW LUGIA too will feel their blessing.
[break][break]
 the corruption it suffered by the ULTRA BEAST is cleansed in the blink of an eye. white streaks shine where poison had long since dyed purple. but this transformation does not purge the shadow from it’s heart. no, there is power in hatred.
[break][break]
SHADOW LUGIA weaponizes this power. makes it it’s own. its appearance may change but the aura around it still resonated with the SHADOW AVATAR’s frequency.
[break][break]
SHADOW LUGIA may channel its shadow power into a single SHADOW AEROBLAST+. afterwards it reverts back to its original form.
behind Cillian Quinn, the sound of someone landing from high above shines underneath the light of LUNALA’S ULTRA BURST. it’s a familiar face that sets him back a couple years. it’s been ages since the former ROCKET BEAST was reassigned to kanto.
[break][break]
[break]
“daddy walsh would have me look after the big bad underboss,” VALERIO greets with a smug smirk. the last CHARM dangles from his wrist as he stares at NECROZMA in the distance.
[break][break]
“voldemort! show’em what we’re made of! again!”
[break][break]
like deja vu, LUNALA comes to their rescue once more. team rocket’s ecliptic ace, a SLATEPORT BLACKOUT survivor, joins the rest with another MOONGEIST BEAM. valerio releases his other pokemon as well, unaware of the slaughter he had just missed. among his pokemon are the SHADOW POKEMON from the last time NECROZMA attacked.
[break][break]
elsewhere, abandoned to their fate, Lulu Flint will have to rely on her DARKRAI to free her from the DARK FLOWERS. also blessed by the LAKE GUARDIANS, the silent revenant finds the power to sever their binds. however, as a manipulator of the darkness, it senses something else.
[break][break]
it’s not sure what but that concern is drowned out by the sight of the very same attack walsh had to call off during Lulu Flint's first assessment.
[break][break]
[break][break] [break][break] RESULTS NEW PROMPTS ACTIONABLE ITEMS WHAT BINDS US
THOSE GATHERED will find themselves empowered by the LAKE GUARDIANS. their hope is that this will buy them enough time to put a stop to NECROZMA before it can do more harm. the sigils on the ground continue to contort, moving symmetrically as these pokemon conjure their greatest weapon.
[break][break]
a MYSTICAL POWER manifest in the red jewels encrusted onto their forehead. from each circle, red shards start to materialize. one by one, the fragments start to extend, linked together like some sort of RED CHAIN.
[break][break]
[break]
every second that passes allows the RED CHAIN to grow longer. the distance between each circle shows the amount of time required to complete it. lasting that long is paramount to surviving.
[break][break]
it’s time to strike back.
[break][break]
GIRATINA’S influence warns Katherine Fairburne to avoid making contact with the RED CHAIN. her god’s familiarity with this weapon spans creation itself. to resort to these measures show just how desperate these messengers are.
GUIDING PROMPTS
here are some possible prompts to follow for those who need a little guidance! [break][break]
- HAVE FUN! this is your moment to go wild!
NARRATIVE INFORMATION HISTORICAL INFORMATION
DYNAMAX [break][break]
not much is known about DYNAMAXING but it has recently been found in hoenn!
[break][break]
several trainers found a huge REGIROCK in the desert tomb. after defeating it, the REGIROCK exploded, burying the tomb.
[break][break]
after the ULTRA BEAST WAR, a new set of trainers found the tomb once more. inside, a weird chamber allowed one of the pokemon to DYNAMAX.
[break][break]
recently, several trainers have found an ANCIENT TOMB near foretree. the tomb was covered in a barrier that caused anything that touched it to DYNAMAX. however, some pokemon would die during the DYNAMAX process.
PRIMAL REVERSION [break][break]
the first public appearance of ULTRA BEAST was when a huge CELESTEELA and GUZZLORD showed up in mossdeep. there, a VICTINI manifested itself prematurely. in desperation, it used V-CREATE and sacrificed itself to allow those present to MEGA EVOLVE.
[break][break]
due to the saturation of raw PRIMAL ENERGY, those present ended up undergoing PRIMAL REVERSION instead of just MEGA EVOLUTION.
VALERIO DACHEV [break][break]
a former ROCKET BEAST that was reassigned to kanto after not being able to show restraint during A TRANSFER OF POWER.
[break][break]
valerio was one of the few individuals who encountered NECROZMA in slateport. during this event, he befriended a LUNALA that assisted those present with taking down NECROZMA.

as they flew, lulu watched helplessly as necrozma readied what looked to be its most powerful attack yet. with every flap of noctowl’s wings, the dark flowers grew more malevolent, thorns like barb wire, digging between feathers as they further constricted the avatar on its back.[break][break]
