The landing… wasn’t as smooth as he hoped it to be.
Maybe it was a good thing he’d switched out for Amir, however the unearthly noise that the Silvally released the moment they crash-landed, some distance away from their imminent target, was going to cause some problems.
“Kid, are you okay?!” he barked over the private line in
Josh Devlin’s direction, before pulling himself up.
There was—there was
no way his Silvally would be able to continue in this state, so he regretfully recalled the Pokémon with a little tap on the surface of the Dusk Ball, a sign that he appreciated the Silvally for what he’d done (or tried to do, considering their bumpy landing).
However, their landing wasn’t going to be as…
flawless as he hoped it would be, for there was a distinct roaring noise that ripped through the area some distance behind them—and he turned around in time to see that there was something, riding a Garchomp, headed their way!
“Kid, don’t move without me, we’re going to have to drive these nutcases back, or at the very least stall them!” he growled over the private line, and wondering—would his ‘powers’ work in this vacuum, so high up? There was only one way to find out.
He then slapped his hands together, and hoping against hope that this shit would work, slammed them down on the rocky surface, aiming to make the space between the incoming Garchomp and them slippery with ice.
Could he fly out here, so high up, though, was
another question.
He didn’t want to call the snarky one just yet, and therefore decided to call his Metagross out—one of the few he knew could be able to do something as insane as what he was planning.
“Ro. Rock Slide!” he said quietly, watching as the Metagross slammed one of his four ‘limbs’ down on the rocky ‘ground’ and summoned up an avalanche of boulders—but due to the low gravity, he had no idea if the boulders were going to go wide, or bounce elsewhere, however he hoped that the boulders would also serve as ‘difficult terrain’ for the incoming Garchomp.
Just to make sure that whatever was following them behind wasn’t going to chase after them, he then flipped the switch to the League-wide comms and said,
“Lots of potential Rockets around here, be careful—”Before slamming his hands down again and conjuring up more of the ice, forcing it to spread wider behind them.
At least he was hoping to make this ‘difficult terrain’, considering the combination he’d thrown out.

‘time to see if this shit’s going to work.’
• summons up his frosty ‘powers’ and slams his hands down on the ground behind him and little Josh, hoping to make the distance between them and
Ruby Garcia /

• just to make sure, Lars summons his Metagross
• Metagross used
Rock Slide in an effort to either knock away / knock aside / drive back the incoming mounted Garchomp (
not sorry Ruby!) and make the terrain behind them even more difficult
• to be safe, Lars adds on a
second layer of frost to make the terrain behind them even harder to traverse
