MOD RAID POST!
[break][break]
the
GRASS KNOT fades under
ALEXANDER STONE and
Dallas Rhodes' combined efforts. in tandem, they're able to free themselves with a repeated practice of psychic blades and hot fire. the ground finally settles and nothing else seems to surface. the coast is clear, for now.[break][break][break]
gengar and politoed continues to use
HYPNOSIS but aside from the receding
GRASS KNOT nothing seems to change.
Dallas Rhodes' gyarados finally enters the proximity and keeps them safe by blasting several bursts of
HYDRO PUMP at the flames that are still far off but encroaching ever closer. [break][break][break]
Dallas Rhodes' exploud comes out of its pokeball and lunges forward to gnaw at the large structure-like pokemon with its
THUNDER FANG. without any real way of reaching the pokemon, the exploud has no choice but to try and chew at the pokemon's pillar like roots. luckily, the pokemon's fangs don't crack or break but there seems to be a minimal effect to it. [break][break][break]
kim cole-essam's dragonite brings @delphi out of harms way. the dragon is faster then the approaching flames but not faster then her ability to recall her pokemon. only her lucario remains, uncomfortably nestled under the dragon's frantic, stubby arm as it flies away from the growing flames. [break][break][break]
kim cole-essam has his lumineon get to work and it starts to dig a hole out of the still moist earth. the clouds from
ALEXANDER STONE's previous
RAIN DANCE are still fresh in the air. a light drizzle starts to set in but the
FLAMETHROWER is too powerful to be rained out with a dainty shower. the returning lickilicky will try to
DISABLE what it can but the pokemon's stamina is no where close to what it used to be. the flames being spewed out by one of the cylinders seems to lose its intensity but they still flow out, unending. [break][break][break]
lucius hallows' ninetales
IMPRISON hits the pokemon's main body but seems to have little effect. the fire continues to spew forth but the attach definitely hit on the immobile, towering structure. his alolan ninetales is more successful at slowing down the flames by turning them into ice. however, that too is only delaying the inevitable. the sheer volume of the
FLAMETHROWER is overpowering, much more then what any one pokemon can do alone. still, it grants them a bigger window of time then leaving the fire unaddressed. [break][break][break]
the
PSYCHIC from
lucius hallows's espeon lands just like the
IMPRISON. at a glance, the attack seems to have no effect on the pokemon. there's no real true sign coming from the main structure. it's unmoving and unresponsive. only
ALEXANDER STONE and
Dallas Rhodes will have a reasonable hypothesis as to why.[break][break][break]
the
CONFUSE RAY fires off in a straight line and hits one of the cylinders. nothing happens at first but clearly the attack lands as it dissipates on contact.
priam conrad is quick to follow up by ordering his arcanine and espeon to attack the same cylinder. the
SWIFT and
FLAME BURST are strong enough to at least rock the object, and as it sways it finds itself unable to steady itself back into position. it
FLAILS around wildly, unleashing an unintentional, rotating
FLAMETHROWER that spreads faster and lashes out at @delphi,
lucius hallows, and
priam conrad's location as the attack wildly arcs as the cylinder starts to plummet. by the looks of it, the cylinder's on a trajectory to fall right onto
kim cole-essam's location. [break][break][break]
the other cylinder ceases to spit out fire, rotating in place several times before flying back to the pokemon's main body.[break][break][break]
