So much happened all at once. Nearly everyone was flying and falling out of the skies out of their desperate attempt to escape the towering pokemon's devastating attacks.

The muddy ground was already heating up, hardening like brick from the gigantic pokemon's spray of flames. While Lucius might be far from where the pokemon unleashed its fiery rage, the heat still licked his skin.

"Queen."

On cue, the alolan ninetales' eyes shimmered with a blueish glow, sending a faint pulse towards the towering pokemon to imprison it in hopes of disabling any move it knows that the alolan ninetales has, safely taking the thought of it using hyperbeam out of the equation.

Hoping to deal a good bit of damage this time, his alolan ninetales sent out a mighty hyperbeam aimed right at the pokemon's presumed head. His bastiodon, still anticipating oncoming damage, had its iron defense up. Still, Lucius and his alolan ninetales were positioned just behind bastiodon whose sheild-like head aimed towards the general direction of the gigantic pokemon.




• Currently out: Alolan Ninetales and Bastiodon.
• Lucius and his pokemon are positioned not too far from the FLAMETHROWER's edge.
• Alolan ninetales used IMPRISON to prevent it from using any move from alolan ninetale's moveset
• Alolan ninetales used HYPERBEAM aimed at the giant pokemon's supposed head
• Bastiodon used IRON DEFENSE to brace itself from potential damage
• Alolan ninetales and Lucius still hiding at the back of bastiodon

this is wrong

, wrong, wrong. they're up in the air—and not even a couple inches up in the air, but literal meters. rhian looks down. her hand is on her sylveon's pokéball again and she aims it at the ground, so that her pretty princess can be the one saving her this time.

[break][break]

the sylveon assesses the situation. her trainer is close, but her ribbons are already out, on their way to catch her. they extend and fold until a nice, soft rope that catches the petite girl and her clefable in midair.

[break][break]



[break][break]

a deep sigh, followed by a hug. "that was terrifying! thanks, princess."

[break][break]

that's also the exact moment she realizes leo is not with her: when the sylveon doesn't catch him too. rhian frowns. where is he? where is everyone else? not only had they been teleported somewhere way higher than their initial destination; they were somehow also separated along the way!

[break][break]

leo may not be with her, but she can spot someone else in their close vicinity. actually it's a pokémon that she sees in their vicinity. close enough to see, but not enough to talk to. not that it would stop her from screaming a desperate "have you seen a grumpy brunette—" she stops mid-sentence. another sound, familiar by now.

[break][break]

she turns just in time to watch leonardo falling from a height even greater than hers. from where she stands, it looks like he misses the

solar beam

by a hair, when in reality he was more than clear from at least that one danger.

[break][break]

"milkshake!" rhian calls again. this time, they're aiming to land on the ground under @leonardo.

[break][break]

perhaps it's not a good idea, given the half-baked results their first attempt had gotten them. desperate times call for desperate measures, and what scenario could possibly be more desperate than her boyfriend being in mortal danger?

[break][break]

rhian's sylveon still has her ribbons protectively wrapped around her and her clefable, keeping them close, maybe even sensing something was about to happen. the small party are in a three-way hug when the

teleport

tugs at them a second time.

[break][break]

whatever happened next, the sylveon would be ready to

Metagross is called out again. [break]
With Leonardo and 's Swanna on its back, Metagross uses Magnet Rise to latch onto the dress part of the beast's body or otherwise get closer to it.[break]
Metagross will cancel its Magnet Rise and drop down with Hammer Arm if it feels the temperature rise too much due to their growing proximity to the beast. They're aiming at the main body though.




He begins wording a thank you to his brave Pokémon, but the words are cut off just as suddenly as the telepathic connection between the two. Leonardo grimaces but doesn't allow himself any tears. He recalls the Alakazam back into his pokéball and with his lips softly touching the cold, smooth surface, he mutters his message.

[break][break]

"Thank you."



[break][break]

It's cruel, how he's not allowed to bid his Pokémon a proper farewell, but Leonardo would not be letting his sacrifice go to waste.

[break][break]

The height from which they fell would surely kill them, but at least it gave them seconds more to react. Leonardo reaches for Rhian's Swanna before calling his Metagross back out. This time, the Steel type would be materializing right below the two.

[break][break]

A soft thud and the feeling of cold metal confirm that they're indeed on top of the Metagross. Leonardo points at the beast.

[break][break]

"Let's get on that thing."



[break][break]

Metagross has its doubts about getting so close to the unknown entity, but it supposes that if there's anywhere they could avoid being struck by another Flash Cannon or Solar Beam or even worse a Flamethrower, it would be on the beast's own body.

[break][break]

Safety from direct attacks. It doesn't imply safety from indirect effects, but then again they could change strategies if their first option turns out not to work. For now, it's worth a try.

[break][break]

Metagross foregoes a transformation on the atomic level. By pushing aside its negatively charged electrons and accumulating protons on its side and two of its arms, Metagross creates an undeniable attraction between its body and that of the beast's.

[break][break]

This application of Magnet Rise may not be making them fly today, but with some luck this metal would work the same way any other magnetic metal known to human science does. One of his less memorable Chemistry lectures had taught him that shine of a metal corresponded with the amount of ionized electrons on its surface.

[break][break]

From up close, it looks nothing like the fairy tale princess Rhian was going on about. This is no Sleeping Beauty. They approach an area that, from afar, may have looked like a dress. Where they currently stand, its main body looks more like shells.

[break][break]

"Mind that Flamethrower."



[break][break]

Of course, it's not the only thing Metagross has to be mindful of. They're betting on the rocket-like structures being the only part of this huge colossus that moves. They're betting on this area they're approaching not burning them up. A lot of conditions had to be met for this strategy to work. If one failed, Metagross would be prioritizing its trainer's safety and aiming at the ground with a pair of Hammer Arms.

manages to latch onto both 's klefki and his emboar. they descend at a dangerous speed but the emboar is able to time the HAMMER ARM right as they land. the force of the attack comes down and the exchange in momentum is neutralized for its passengers. and the klefki feel nothing from their landing but the emboar does. it faces the sum of the weight of their fall against the sudden impact with the ground. energy can be redirected and displaced but it never vanishes. the emboar will feel a sharp pain shoot through its knuckle up to its mid forearm. luckily, it doesn't sound like anything's broken.[break][break][break]

gyarados manages to glide against the GRAVITY and ends up coasting against the ground. it launches a HYDRO PUMP at the incoming FLAMETHROWER, which is similar to shooting a bullet at a flood. a small pocket opens up and the gyarados is spared for seconds. the FLAMETHROWER doesn't end and the consistency of the attack evaporates the attack, continuing onward to engulf the sea serpent. it's innate water typing allows it to brave the attack better than most but over exposure to the flames causes it to suffer from multiple BURNS. it'll start to know what it feels like to be cooked alive. luckily, the pokemon's priority is getting out of danger and it snakes its way out of the FLAMETHROWER'S attack range.[break][break][break]

gallade's PSYCHO CUT gives it the push and recoil necessary to reduce their plummet into a precise landing. the two land relatively unharmed, both making thuds as they sink into the mud. they've shifted their route and no longer are in the radius of the FLAMETHROWER but the distance from is not something that can be eliminated in seconds. they trudge through the mud, making their way closer to him.[break][break][break]

is in luck. the rain has only lasted for a few minutes and while the ground is muddy, the extent is mild. however, the FLAME BURST from his arcanine is not enough to dry the dirt. not in a single passing. it dries the surface but the dry patches of earth will crack under the pressure of the arcanine’s paw. they shift under the secondary layer of mud as the pokemon EXTREME SPEEDS out of the FLAMETHROWER. they make it out but unscathed but it’s a bumpy ride.[break][break][break]

the lucario is @delphi ’s saving grace. however, the mud proves a treacherous terrain to navigate for anyone using EXTREME SPEED. the lack of traction makes it hard to stop, the lack of friction makes solid footing impossible. such a rapid speed is bound to spell disaster and the pokemon ends up tumbling in to her. they make it out of the FLAMETHROWER but @delphi will certainly feel the impact of her pokemon. better bruised than burnt, right?[break][break][break]

her dragalge tries to temper the flames with repeated HYDRO PUMPS but its fighting a losing battle. they’re nothing more then spurts of water against a wave of fire. they provide temporary relief but the dragalge cannot keep up. luckily, makes it out unharmed. [break][break][break]

's clefable TELEPORTS them again and they end up in relatively the same position as they were previously but several meters closer to the pokemon and a few meters higher than they were the last time they dropped. the only difference is that there wouldn't be a slyveon on the ground ready to catch them—because it's right there with them, falling. this time the fall may cause some serious damage; could be fatal too, if handled improperly. careful what you wish for. [break][break][break]

@leonardo lands on his metagross with 's swanna in tow. the MAGNET RISE is used under the assumption that the pokemon's metal surface will react like every other metal known to man. unfortunately, this isn't a metal known to man—but by coincidence the MAGNET RISE works all the same. GRAVITY pulls against the magnetic binds but the MAGNET PULL proves too strong. the metagross ends up being sucked into the unknown pokemon's surface. like a magnet on a fridge, they speed towards it, the flat surface of metagross' bottom side set to latch against the pokemon's smooth dress plating. [break][break][break]

the alolan ninetales uses IMPRISON and the attack lands without resistance but has it truly worked? there's no sign leaning towards either way and the pokemon's yet to be responsive. it's the HYPER BEAM that comes after that finally rouses a reaction from the main body. from the blank state on it's head sprouts a thin line. it opens and it somewhat resembles a mouth. it frowns, letting out a loud METAL SOUND. the cylinders stop expelling the FLAMETHROWER. instead, they rise, circling the pokemon at a growing speed until they double, and then triple under the sheer speed of DOUBLE TEAM. the pokemon screeches again and the after images finally fire off. [break][break][break]

[break][break]

several cylinders, all the size of a large bus, take off at incredible speeds. the distance and his pokemon have become nothing in a matter of seconds. several fist come his way and before he can blink they ignite. the velocity of their trajectory lights them in flames as their FLAME CHARGE turns into a GIGA IMPACT that'll BULLDOZE through anything. still has his bastiodon in front of him but three of the cylinders make a sudden turn straight for @delphi and . based off their flight path, a straight shot forward, the middle one will ram straight into @delphi 's lucario and then her, while the one on the left will hit 's arcanine and therefore him. [break][break][break]

[break][break]





[break]

SUMMARY OF ACTIONS TAKEN:
[break][break]
  • brings out his emboar and grabs onto 's klefki. his emboar uses HAMMER ARM to try and displace the force of them landing and mitigates the impact. and klefki make it out fine. emboar feels a sharp pain on its hand. they charge at the unknown pokemon.
  • ' gyarados manages to mitigate the free fall by gliding. it uses HYDRO PUMP at the incoming FLAMETHROWER which last for a few seconds before the FLAMETHROWER engulfs it. the pokemon suffers from BURNS from the exposure, escaping in time to avoid dangerous damage.
  • 's gallade uses PSYCHO CUT to push them away from the ground as they land. they start to approach the unknown pokemon, running through mud as they also try to join up with .
  • ’s arcanine uses FLAME BURST to help dry the mud in front of it before it EXTREME SPEEDS and
    his espeon out of the way.
  • @delphi’s flareon is unharmed. herself, not so much. her lucario runs into her but ends up tackling her out of the FLAMETHROWER. her dragalge tries to fight off the flames with HYDRO PUMP but it does little to help.
  • brings out her sylveon and it catches her and her clefable. they try to TELEPORT closer to @leonardo but end up the in the same position as their previous TELEPORT but closer to the pokemon and at a higher height.
  • @leonardo brings out his metagross and lands on it with 's swanna. it uses MAGNET RISE and gets sucked towards the pokemon.
  • ' alolan ninetales uses IMPRISON. there's no sign that it works or doesn't work. it fires a HYPER BEAM afterwards toward the pokemon's antenna. it hits, causing the pokemon to finally react. both cylinders start to orbit before launching off at an incredible speed, multiplying with DOUBLE TEAM, heading right for ' ninetales and the bastiodon in front of him. several of them splits off and they set off toward @delphi and .

he is thankful for the assistance given to him by delphi, but time constraints made it impossible for him to express his gratitude. priam could not even spare a moment to glance at her as another attack came chasing after them.

they make it out of the attack's path, frazzled and shaken but nonetheless safe. unfortunately, their safety wouldn't last long.

the area where the ground is dried would soon end. priam knows they cannot outrun it, unless they risk trying to run at high speeds at unstable ground. he has another option, although he doesn't know how well it would work. it was their only chance at surviving the collision, however.

"druddi! get ready with hone claws!"

he releases his druddigon ahead of their path as his arcanine continues to run. the dragon-type stands where the muddy terrain starts and the dried ground ends, allowing her to sink her feet deeper for better anchorage. She readies her claws as he sees two large objects nearing her: the arcanine and his passengers, and the cylinder.

"full power! superpower!" he calls as the arcanine ran past him.

the fire-type's paws eventually slow down as they reach the muddier parts, eventually stopping behind the druddigon. if they tried to dry it up again and escape, they probably won't have enough time. facing the attack head on was a better decision, or at least, that's what priam believed.

"espeon, help druddi with psychic! arcee, helping hand!"

the psychic-type's eyes would glow as it would attempt to slow down the attack with the best of its abilities. the druddigon bunkers itself in preparation of using brute force to stop the attack. the arcanine, meanwhile, did its best to be a cheerleader.

the dragon-type awaits for the right moment, claws ready to scrape onto the rod's surface until it gets a decent grip on it. when it does, muscles would bulge as she exerts herself to stop it at all costs.

And so, several bus-sized flaming fists came flying towards him, like giant-sized anti-tank missiles aiming for a brutal overkill. All is well, you can probably say.

"Oh. FOR FUCK'S-"

His bastiodon braced itself, finally facing the retaliation it was anticipating from the very start. Its iron defense was still in effect, stacking up, the bastiodon used one last iron defense to further resist the attack. Should all else fail, however, the bastiodon should be sturdy enough to remain standing. It dug its feet deeper under the mud, hoping to anchor itself as several cylinders came spiraling towards their direction.

The bastiodon readied its metal burst a split second before the attack would hit, hoping to charge it up with the damage it was about to accept.

Bracing for impact themselves, Lucius gave his alolan ninetales a tight hug. His bastiodon tanked the flaming giga impact of the giant pokemon's rocket fists. The force itself from the impact of the attack was enough to blow Lucius away for a few meters despite his bastiodon's protection.

"VAN!"

Lucius exclaimed, calling out to his bastiodon as he was shot in the air with his alolan ninetales pressed tightly against his chest, they tumbled and rolled to seemingly no end, even reacing past the border of the muddy terrain, stopping only after hitting his back against a large tree that soon fell after the shockwave had reached it. The attack was massive, causing chunks of land to be flung away with the force of its impact. His bastiodon, sturdy as ever, was now a few meters away and is evidently bruised with its legs shaking as it barely kept itself up.

Lucius reached for his pokeballs and sent out his espeon, ready for battle as it immediately ran towards his bastion to be of aid. His bastiodon shimmered with faint light as it now had its metal burst fully charged after all the damage it took. With the last bit of its energy, it raised its head and opened its mouth, in a split second, out came a giant white ball in front of its face; a giant white ball of energy that's twice the size of the bus-sized cylinder the giant pokemon used to attack them. The bastiodon then shot the ball of metal burst energy towards the enemy pokemon, its power and size nearly doubling the flaming bus-sized giga impact from before. After releasing its metal burst, the bastiodon finally fell with its knees buckling in, fainting from exhaustion.

The espeon, on the other hand, had sent out a pulse of confusion towards the giant pokemon just as bastiodon shot its supersized metal burst, hoping it'd do something.

Lucius had since let go of his alolan ninetales who now stood on all four. The albino began to crawl towards his fallen bastiodon with its empty pokeball in his hand. The alolan ninetales, despite limping, helped Lucius by dragging its master towards the fainted comrade. Once he got much closer, Lucius threw the ball he had in hand, the bastiodon would finally be recalled, its efforts would not go to waste.

"Ain't dying on my watch, champ..." He wearily said.



• Currently out: Alolan Ninetales, Bastiodon, and Espeon.
• Bastiodon used another IRON DEFENSE to stack up with the previous one.
• Bastiodon took the brunt of the attack, also setting up a METAL BURST.
• Lucius hugs his Alolan Ninetales and were flung by the shockwave of the attack.
• Bastiodon remains standing because it's STURDY and it's a boss.
• Bastiodon shoots out METAL BURST, releasing a ball of energy twice as large and with nearly twice the power of the attack it took.
• Espeon uses CONFUSION, just 'cause.
• Alolan Ninetales dragged Lucius towards the fainted Bastiodon.
• Bastiodon gets recalled.

it felt as if he had been on autopilot this entire time, his moves almost mechanical as he was pulled along by some unseen force.

though thankful that his body did not falter where his mind did, he felt as useless as he had been for a while now.

but this wasn’t the time for self pity, actions were needed and he needed to act fast.

his movements were quick as he released his pokemon, a dragonite as well as his aromatisse; commands given as swiftly as he could relay them.

puppy, agility, go and get that girl. ruffles, slow down the projectile heading in her direction, and if you can, redirect it.

the dragonite would shudder as it began flying in @delphi ’s direction, agility increasing it speed as it flew through the air. even with gravity against it, the dragonite would do its best, attempting to grab hold of the woman and her pokemon as it flew by.

meanwhile, the aromatisse would follow its orders, psychic overcoming the arm as much as it could as it tried with all its might to angle the arm upwards and away from its point of impact as well as slowing it’s arrival.

if not for the chaos that was represented before them, delphi might've been half—inclined to offer all of her attention to the present dragon. the companion of one which brought momentary respite.

she faces the oncoming fragment, the pain within her side bringing a twinge of hesitation. thankfully it was not as demanding as her previous sway. 

"helping hand! on the aromatisse!" the flareon quickly averts his attention to the fairy—type. increasing the strength of psychic to the best of his capability. although it was not reliant on the frame that took the full front of flamethrower. 

it was better than nothing

dragalge moves fluidly out of the way, trailing alongside the girl and the lucario tucked firmly beneath the opposing arm of dragonite. the heaviness of their atmosphere offers them no haste. 

"don't worry guys!" she protests, fumbling for another object. the residue of slime and mud making it difficult. "please! don't let that thing hit us!" the massive pokemon is released. 

mudsdale is half the side of the approaching threat. the large creature resounding a neigh of challenge before charging towards the silver projectile. her iron defense quite prominent before the equally powerful high horsepower makes way into the clash. 




           » hehe thanks
           » flareon uses helping hand on aromatisse
           » dragalge moves outta the way with delphi,
              lucario and 's dragonite
           » mudsdale uses iron defense then starts
              to charge into the object with high horsepower

The pain caused by the landing was evident despite Emboar’s attempts to hide it. “I’ll make sure you get patched up at the Pokecentre after this, big guy. You’ll be fine.” The Emboar simply nodded in response as they continued to close the gap. Still, Dallas did not know what to do once he got closer, or if doing so would be any better. Perhaps a weakness could be found underneath it. Although that was also were the abundant amount of vines had originated from. Dallas wasn’t sure if he wanted to get tangled up in them. Perhaps if Dallas was lucky, there would just be an off button on the back of this thing.[break][break]

As he fantasized about that extremely optimistic solution, the blond reached for Gengar’s Pokeball and releasing the shadow Pokemon for it to run alongside Dallas.[break][break]

“See if you can put this thing to sleep.” It was worth a shot while it was distracted as the Gengar used Hypnosis on the attacking Pokemon. Clapping its hands together and sending a wave of purple energy over the thing.[break][break]

If Emboar and Dallas were close enough and its underside was visible, the League member would command the fire type to use Flamethrower on the roots the alien Pokemon had used to ingrain itself. Otherwise, they’d continue to run towards it through the dirt and muck and keep an eye out for any flying fists heading towards them.[break][break]

In the meanwhile, Gyarados also followed after its trainer. Trying its best to catch up and make sure no attacks came its way either.[break][break]

ALEXANDER STONE Avatar
chaos erupts around him but none target him. alexander watches as more heavy metal beams appear, flying with deathly intent as it shoots forth at various targets. he is powerless in this. the only thing he can do is grit his teeth, clench his jaw, and trudge onward.

through the mist, alexander sees up ahead, underneath the body of the alien. he's still too far away to lend a hand but the least he can do is prepare. hands reach for two more pokeballs.

"are you okay to continue, politoed?"

the green toad nods, feeling slightly better after recovering in his pokeball. alexander reaches down for his pyukumuku and scoops her up, holding her in his arms as they approach. she's slower than the rest, but perhaps there is more to him carrying her than people might realize.

"looks like it is just us."

alexander says to dallas, maybe yelling it, as they near. their formation never breaks: gallade stands in front of them, acting as both their lance and shield. he follows emboar's lead and sends a PSYCHO CUT to the ingrained roots.

it worked once before, so politoed does the same HYPNOSIS, wide eyes blinking slowly as he holds both hands up, swaying left and right rhythmically. pyukumuku's HELPING HAND only looks to aid both of them.

alexander's heart thunders in his chest. to be up this close to something so unfamiliar, so alien, is truly a wonder. it is also frightening at the same time.

"the others are counting on us."

he says what doesn't need to be said.

[attr="class","text"]

this time

, she can hear herself scream. they're much higher than before and in no way fine. this time, rhian isn't so sure she can get away from trouble. but she tries, boy does she try.

[break][break]

first, her dragonair comes out her pokéball, its long, smooth body warping in a rather snake-like position. rhian's certain that it's not only her that's glad it's such a big pokémon. the dragonair looks up. "stay still, please!" she pleads, before turning to her other pokémon.

[break][break]

"milkshake, come here!" rhian spreads her arms, tries her best to bring the clefable as close as she possibly can. it kind of works, but not really. she ends up returning her to her pokéball for the sake of her safety.

[break][break]

meanwhile, her sylveon takes aim. princess may not be down on the ground, but her ribbons are still there. they reach for the dragonair and, like a gymnast on parallel bars, swing. the sylveon dips, lets go to momentarily use her ribbons to slow down, stalls, curls her legs, and raises again. the second fall isn't as fast, and the third is slow enough that she can distinguish the human that is quickly falling after her.

[break][break]

she reaches up with those same ribbons to, once more, catch her trainer, and seconds later they're both falling down the dragonair's body. it's like a day at the park, going down the slides, except the reason is way less innocent: they're not here to play.

[break][break]

rhian wraps her arms around the smooth skin of the dragonair, slowing down, and kisses the general area she assumes to be her belly. she's not sure; her heart's thumping too hard, too fast. rhian could cry right now, but there's no time for that. "take us to leo," she croaks out.

[break][break]

the

gravity

surrounding them makes it impossible for the dragonair to fly, but she can manage slithering through the muddy water towards the big creature. its focus is on other people and pokémon at the moment, while rhian's is only @leonardo. with

agility

, she speeds up.

Metagross tries to turn off and reactivate its Magnet Rise one hand at a time in an attempt to climb down. [break]
Leonardo keeps an eye out for any new developments on the alien's end.




"Ugh."



[break][break]

There's a few things on Leonardo's mind when Metagross collides against the metallic body. First, he needs to find Rhian so she can take her Swanna back. Second, maybe the Magnet Rise hadn't been such a good idea after all. Third, the circumstances may not be the best, but he now has a chance to inspect the alien structure from up close.

[break][break]

From way too close, perhaps.

[break][break]

"You two okay?"



[break][break]

The Swanna's far from okay, but at least she's not dead. Yet. Leonardo holds her delicate body on one arm while the other holds on tightly to his Metagross. Although they're considerably lower in altitude now than where they began, a fall from up there still looks pretty painful.

[break][break]

Only two ways to go, now. He's tempted to venture higher up, towards the interesting looking parts of the alien beast's body. The con to that plan is that he doesn't want to die.

[break][break]

"Can you try climbing down?"



[break][break]

It might be hard. The metallic surface's pull is too strong, as proven by how they got to it to begin with. Metagross would have to be extremely careful to nullify its Magnet Rise in very small, very specific sections of its body in order to climb down, one hand at a time.

[break][break]

They begin with a small test, as any other experiment should be conducted. Metagross releases one hand and promptly activates the magnetic field surrounding it again.

[break][break]

Leonardo can't enjoy the view, but he'd be attentive to any new developments on the creature's front.

MOD RAID POST!
[break][break]
's dragonite coasts against the ground as it speeds up in a grounded flight to reach @delphi and grab her out of the way before the fist hits her. it approaches and the dragon pokemon can eyeball that it'll reach @delphi in time but getting out of there is a different story. the combined efforts of @delphi's flareon and 's aromatisse would've put a meager resistance but enough to grant them enough time—if it wasn't for the fact that the psychic pokemon sense that something is wrong.[break][break][break]

the PSYCHIC probes outward to resist the incoming projectile but the aromatisse will realize that the attack is ineffective. it can't bind what doesn't exist. the fist is an afterimage from DOUBLE TEAM![break][break][break]

's pokemon gives out an alarming cry to let the others know but it's too late. @delphi's mudsdale charges head first into nothingness as the image continues and barely misses 's dragonite. they're safe but at what cost? that means one of the other two fists is the real one.[break][break][break]

left alone to his own devices, does his best to struggle against the oncoming threat. his druddigon finds the most stable footing it can, digging into the mud as it hold steadfast with HONED CLAWS. despite the objects insane speed, the druddigon, focused only on the fist, can time exactly when it'll hit. it's ready to hold the line. the first defense for its trainer, .[break][break][break]

his espeon tries to slow down the blazing cylinder but the PSYCHIC hold does nothing, shattering the instant the espeon tries to apply resistance. the sheer force of the projectile causes a telekinetic backlash, causing the pokemon to snap its head in a disgruntled shake. a terrible MIGRAINE tears at the pokemon's nerves, unable to do much more as it FLINCHES in pain.[break][break][break]

arcanine's HELPING HAND does what it can but most of it will be down to the druddigon. the combined effort of HELPING HAND, HONE CLAWS, and SUPER POWER boasts a sizable defense against any incoming objects. in any normal circumstance, this would've been plenty. however, this supersedes normal. two pokemon are simply not enough to stand up against the flying battering ram. [break][break][break]

when it hits the druddigon can feel every fiber of its body being blown away by the impact. internal organs reverberate within the confines of the pokemon's ribs, rupturing instantly. it holds out of necessity, managing to slow the fist down slightly as its dragged across the ground. the pokemon's effort, every ounce of its strength goes into diverting the fist out of the path that leads to . it struggles, putting up a failing effort as the fist sails past , taking his druddigon with it. [break][break][break]

 [break][break][break]

the sudden deceleration triggers the cylinder. it knows that something is putting resistance. it responds by eliminating that resistance, destroying whatever may be in its way. the center of the cylinder comes alive as the druddigon screams in surprise. it knows whats coming. deep down inside, the pokemon's natural intuition begs for it to flee, to let go, to get out of there. it's too late. a burst of FLASH CANNON erupts from the opening of the cylinder that faces the druddigon and obliterates the pokemon's torso. there's no bleeding organs or nasty, falling flesh. there's simply nothing, the remainder of the pokemon slumps, pieces of it hanging off the fist as it makes an abrupt turn toward the sky.[break][break][break]

 [break][break][break]

handles the situation with the same solution. his bastiodon stands firm, ready to bare the brunt of the attack with its reinforced IRON DEFENSE. iron meets tempered steel and the pokemon is immediately launched back. its STUDINESS spares it from the same fate as 's druddigon. the bastiodon is thrown several meters backwards, skidding against the dirt as the fist continues forward and onto the same path that leads right back to the bastiodon. [break][break] [break]

the bastiodon reacts the moment it feels its weight steady. an instant METAL BURST sounds off with a magnitude greater than any other attack the bastiodon's ever let out. the huge strike hits the cylinder and it falters, wobbling momentarily, slowing down from the impact but picking back up as it continues on course toward the bastiodon. it collides against the pokemon again, sending it sprawling farther away. several cracks form along the pokemon's armor. seconds have barely passed but the bastiodon is being juggled further back like a paddle-ball. [break][break][break]

has long tumbled backwards and lands with a solid thud against the tree, his alolan ninetales tucked against his chest. he brings out his espeon but it's too late. the object strikes again and the bastiodon's head begins to give way, the top of the shield being chipped and several pieces cracking off. another blow and the bastiodon's defense proves no match for the unstoppable appendage. one last punch is enough for the pokemon's steel hide to crack and its head gets caved in by the cylinder. the pokemon's body is flung several meters into the air, cracked in numerous places, bleeding, before GRAVITY takes hold and brings it down in a terrible crash a decent distance away. the fist never stops and continues onward, out of the area before the espeon can dispatch it with CONFUSION. it too makes an abrupt turn towards the sky, ascending. [break][break][break]


 [break][break][break]


[break][break]

getting even closer, is able to see that the stumps that make up the structure's foundation are roughly 14 feet tall. up close, the vines can be seen glowing as they transfer energy to the pokemon. the gengar he brought out prior to approaching tries to put it to SLEEP with 's polited. the combined HYPNOSIS strikes the creature but no immediate effect seems to happen. it merely closes its mouth, returning to its previous state. the cylindrical objects are unaffected.[break][break][break]

' emboar and 's gallade take turns attempting to get rid of the vines that attach the creature to the ground. several stalks ignite and some are sliced apart cleanly. the rest immediately detach, sinking back into the ground and disappearing into the ground. simple enough.[break][break][break]

several flowers arise from the soil, blooming immediately. smaller but more agile vines wrap around everyone nearby except 's pyukumuku, which he's holding, and ' gyarados which is farther away. the GRASS KNOT starts to bind them, cutting off circulation from their feet while they feel the GIGA DRAIN begin to feed on their life force.[break][break][break]

@leonardo begins the slow descent downward with his metagross and they're left relatively safe. his presence is hidden by everything else going on. down below, he can observe and being attacked by the GRASS KNOT. [break][break][break]


[break]

who knew was a gymnast. her ACROBATICS prove fruitful and her access to the levitating dragonair prevents her from going splat on the ground. the dragon pokemon descends and lands safely in the same manner that ' gyarados had done previously. they continue onward and toward the unknown pokemon.[break][break][break]


[break]

the pair of cylinders collide high above and the carcass of 's druddigon falls off, hurtling down toward @delphi and 's dragonite. an intense red aura radiates from the pokemon, hot but not dangerous. @leonardo, , and can feel the raw energy radiating from the pokemon as the aura starts to die off and with it the heat.[break][break][break]

each cylinders aims downward, vertical, before unleashing another torrent of FLAMETHROWER. luckily, the attack isn't aimed at anyone in particular but it does set the surroundings on fire. the fire spreads and soon a large portion of the forest is aflame. each fist rotates from its spot, slowly creating what seems to be a great ring of fire. they start to draw closer to and @delphi.

  • dragonite charges forward to rescue @delphi and her pokemon while his aromatisse tries to slow down the fist. it realizes the fist is just an afterimage but it's too late. @delphi's mudsdale charges into an empty after image as @delphi makes it to safety.
  • has his druddigon try to stop the approaching cylinder. espeon uses PSYCHIC to try to slow it down but it's going too fast. his espeon FLINCHES from the MIGRAINE it gets. arcanine uses HELPING HAND as the druddigon tries to SUPERPOWER its way into redirecting the fist.
  • the fist hits his druddigon hard and pushes it forward. it slows down slightly but fires off a FLASH CANNON that vaporizes the pokemon's torso. it continues, pieces of the druddigon hanging from the fist as it turns upward and toward the sky.
  • has his bastiodon block the attack with its IRON DEFENSE. the cylinder collides against the pokemon and launches it back, continuously ramming into it until the pokemon is bludgeoned to death. it makes a sharp turn upward and toward the sky. and his alolan ninetales are blown back by the impact of the attack.
  • and bring out their gengar and politoed. the two use HYPNOSIS on the unknown pokemon and it seems to fall asleep. this does not seem to affect the two flying cylinders.
  • up close, ' emboar and 's gallade start to burn / cut through the INGRAIN. the vines that aren't destroyed retreat into the ground. instead, a GRASS KNOT comes out on all of their pokemon and starts to GIGA DRAIN them.
  • @leonardo descends and goes unnoticed.
  • 's dragonair helps her avoid falling. they approach the unknown pokemon.
  • both cylinder ascend to the sky and turn downward, unleashing a tremendous FLAMETHROWER that lights the forest on fire. it comes closer to and @delphi.

all of them are too deep to even consider retreating but it's not like they will have much of a choice. FLAMETHROWER spews around them, circling as it encompasses the entire group into a small circle, trapped by the towering walls of flame.

alexander watches as the heavy roots fall apart, sliced and torn as they descend onto the ground. it doesn't seem to do anything to affect the alien and at this point he suspects nothing will. as grim a thought as it may be, perhaps this is their last mission after all.

then, from underneath him, roots spring up and wrap around his feet and ankles, shackling him in place. he struggles under the added pressure before the GIGA DRAIN kicks in, unbeknownst to him. all he feels is his head getting lighter as each blink draws him closer to fainting.

gallade sees this but it becomes clear that the battle has taken a toll on him. pyukumuku does what she can to SPLIT the PAIN before RECOVERING her own health. mystical energies swap and suddenly gallade feels rejuvenated, enough to rush to alexander.

precise PSYCHO CUTS target the knots around alexander's ankle, slicing them just enough. HELPING HAND aids with the precision. he does the same to . gallade then attempts to yoink alexander out, freeing him from the bonds.

despite the flames, politoed continues with the HYPNOSIS, thinking that it might take more time to affect this alien. pyukumuku is quick to lend a HELPING HAND again.

the interception was a success, and it seemed his worry was for naught, the theat only seeming to be a facade, a fake-out of sorts as the other two turns out to be all two real; substantial damage occurring to the two targeted by the very real appendages, the two pokemon sent flying, their body put through the ringer as they were tossed about.

his eyes would not avert, staying on the two structures as they continued to tousle about the pokemon, watching their movement even through their brutish actions. it was sickening, but he couldn’t afford to keep his eyes off of them for a second, their actions almost unreadable.

a call disrupts his concentration, a hand quickly going to the phone before answering.

fallarbor and verdanturf and under attack!

eyes widened as his concentration was lost, the gravity of not only the situation but also the overbearing presence nearby forcing him to loose to the pressure, stumbling for a second before forcing himself up again.

this moment of faltered focus let the going on’s around him get the upper hand, more so than it already had, flames beginning to hone in on him as well as the woman unfortunate enough to be stuck in this shitty situation with him.

there was nothing he could do for them at the moment, if team rocket decided to capture towns then they could, it was better than letting this thing get away from them. they had to do what they could here before they could focus on anything else.

coffee! he shouts to the dragonite as he points further back. “get her out of here as fast as you can.

the dragon would nod, pulling the woman and her pokemon in, giving her a chance to return any stragglers before darting off, doing its best to escape the flames, it’s speed once again enhancing with an agility.

ruffles, dig.

lumineon would be released, an aqua ring forming around kim as the aromatisse dug a canal with psychic, a rain dance calling forth a storm quickly after. the lickilicky was released once more, the aromatisse returned as kim hopped in with the fish, disable used on the flamethrower as the lickilicky covered the top, the heavy duty orb providing protection to its master once more.


ღ   dragonite flys off with @delphi using agility to escape        fire
ღ   i know you got rid of that rain but... bring it back
ღ   aromatisse digs a crevice in the ground with psychic
ღ   lumineon is released and used aqua ring and rain dance
ღ   lickilicky is released and aromatisse is returned
ღ   aromatisse has the healer ability hopefully getting rid of                  that paralysis from earlier
ღ   kim hops in the crevice and the lickilicky uses disable on the             flamethrower, being a shield over the crevice as it does
