GOODBYE GALAR: RUSTED SHIELD
POSTED ON May 27, 2023 8:34:41 GMT
[nospaces] [attr="class","omgen"] [attr="class","omgentop"]GOODBYE GALAR:[break] RUSTED SHIELD [attr="class","omgenmid"] ICLY SET EARLY JUNE DEATH-ENABLED RAID EVENT [player]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1035423510278979624/1110060230089388032/calyrex_poggie.mp3[/player] [break] 🎼 Battle! (Calyrex) - Pokémon Sword and Shield [break][break] Q&A ICE CRUSTS OVER THE CREATURE’S PAW AS IT STRUGGLES TO MAINTAIN CONTROL. Its mind is addled, pulsing bright with the poison that now dribbles sloppily past its green bud.
"i am calyrex. i once was a high king. i ruled over galar in times of yore.” The Pokemon's reply is strained, as if the vocal cords itself were attempting to constrain the toxin back in its throat.[break][break]
A GLACIAL LANCE IS THROWN. It arcs toward genesis aria fox, her SALAZZLE emerging from its pokeball to shield its trainer. Immediately, it is knocked out, its slender form grappled by Galarian ice. Gerald Kaiser's IRON MOTH suffers the same fate. Its trainer's question goes unanswered as ice smashes against its metallic wings. Another lance flies toward Kaname Fujihara's HATTERENE, causing the tall Fairy-type to topple unconscious.[break][break]
"I possess no knowledge of what a ruination is who or where Azelf is.” The Pokemon responds, though some may find it odd that the second answer is given to a question unspoken. "The DRK Triad is not a court that I am familiar with, nor am I familiar with this 'cat monster'.”[break][break]
Unnerved by Saki Shitachi's odd mannerisms, the CALYREX moves away from her—if she hasn't moved already from the incoming barrage of attacks.[break][break]
To jayden cross, the CALYREX answers: "This world's calamity begun since time immemorial. The Skeleton rose from what seems to have been epochs of slumber... is this world not the only one we live in?”[break][break]
ANOTHER GLACIAL LANCE IS HURLED ACROSS THE COURTYARD. After Violet Fairbanks's ambush on Elaine Highland, the latter's GALLADE jumps out of its ball. The lance clashes with the GALLADE & Violet Fairbanks'S SPIRITOMB, knocking them out with a clamorous chill.[break][break]
MARISOL SIMONE's CERULEDGE warms Leonidas Stone, spectral flames exuding a heat that follows the man's body. A GLACIAL LANCE strikes its armors with a loud clang, causing it to faint. With vengeful flight, Leonidas Stone's TALONFLAME darts through the air. Its feathers, hardened by a STEEL WING intercept another lance soaring toward El Sunderland and their GHOLDENGO.
"The Galarian people still persist. They live quietly and in hiding... and in cities still standing. One intrepid chronicler must have written that note... as for the black knight and skeleton?” The Calyrex sputters poison and another segment of its bud peels away. "The Black Knight and Skeleton came from the heavens. The Skeleton came first. The Knight came afterward. Their fight brought forth the Darkest Day.”[break][break]
Seeing John Sullivan's PORYGON-Z and the literature on its screen, the king replies: "I do not understand. The Black Knight is still here. I do not know of these verses in current time...”[break][break]
THE GLASTRIER SHRIEKS AS IT MARCHES CALYREX AROUND, its reins controlled by the throbbing poison eating away at the king's very existence. As its hooves drum against the old stone, heavy GLACIAL LANCES are tossed as if they are nothing. One slams into Genevieve Cromwell's GALARIAN DARMANITAN and another is caught by Kyrenai Black's TYRANTRUM'S STRONG JAW. However, the momentum of the lance does not stop, drilling forward until the dinosaur reels away. Both of the lances detonate, knocking each Pokemon out.[break][break]
Another slams into Jack Napier's INCINEROAR despite the intense flames billowing from the wreath of its waist. Another slams into absalom steel's ZOROARK, its SHADOW BALL split in half like a ghostly fruit before it is fainted by the GLACIAL LANCE too.
"The creature from before? Mayhaps you are speaking of The Skeleton? The dog you speak of is The Hero of Many Battles. It must be resting after its battles with The Skeleton. It is interred in stone, biding its time, somewhere in this realm. I haven't a clue as to what a 'Chien-pao' is."[break][break]
A horrible cough leaves the Calyrex's throat.[break][break]
"Our people have lost their hope. Their luster for life. They have been beaten down... and lack heroes to inspire new stories. Might you be one of them?"[break][break]
THE CALYREX ROARS, LOSING FURTHER CONTROL. Its GLACIAL LANCE strikes Julia Davis's HISUIAN GOODRA'S PROTECT, but another soon follows it to force the dragon to the ground. An AURA SPHERE from KING WAYLAND's LUCARIO strikes the CALYREX & ITS STEED, but the king swiftly retaliates.[break][break]
A GLACIAL LANCE smashes into the LUCARIO and Belial Stone's HISUIAN SAMUROTT. Another javelin of ice smashes into Aurelie Lefevre's GALLADE, leaving a tail of snowflakes in its trajectory.[break][break]
"This world is as real as what is remembered." The Calyrex says in cryptic fashion. "Even as a king, I may not have the answer to your plight. I have failed many times... and this is why I stand before you all like this today. But your feeling of guilt is a sign of you becoming who you want to be. Do not forget that."[break][break]
SEVERAL ATTEMPT TO PROTECT THE CALYREX. By now, it is clear that the Pokemon is on its last, clear synapse. It struggles to answer Amor Rose: "That is something I possess no knowledge of..."[break][break]
Colton Boothroyd attempts to protect the poor Pokemon. His IRON VALIANT is sent forth, avoiding the GLACIAL LANCES as they fly. However, Rhydia Ver's ZOROARK is quick to stop it. With a conniving grin, it TAUNTS the Paradox Pokemon, preventing its WIDE GUARD from ever materializing.[break][break]
A GLACIAL LANCE spears Alba Evovae's MUSHARNA, forcing it to faint in a cloud of pink smoke. Another crashes into Madeline McKenna's MAGCARGO before narrowly missing Xenon Antheil, even from this distance.[break][break]
"By killing me. Do not let the people know of my blunders. Of my wretched state. They do not remember me as I am right now, nor do they remember me in my golden years. Being forgotten is the best for my story... lest you desire to fabricate the events of this tragic stage."[break][break]
The Calyrex replies to the others, tears filling its bloodshot eyes as the poison begins to take over the last remnants of lucid thought it has.[break][break]
"Go to the final standing settlements of Galar: Circhester, Hammerlocke, Motostoke, Ballonlea. There, create stories for Galar. Create stories that will be everlasting. Ones that will be sung in every tavern in the land... This will help awaken our hero dog and put an end to this memory for you to... leave!"
"The Skeleton... falling stars..." The Calyrex wails. The final words come: "Which of your stories... will you prefer...?"
REGICIDE
sergei dachev's GARCHOMP erects STONE EDGE SHIELDS around the CALYREX, but the king can not withstand the toxin any longer. Howling, it smashes the stones and GLACIAL LANCES the dragon. Another slams into bryan delarosa and his AUDINO, the trainer's strength not enough to prevent the Pokemon from fainting.[break][break]
However, a HELPING HAND manages to leave the AUDINO'S PAWS to assist mint frost's WEEZING. The HEAT WAVE scorches the CALYREX before the WEEZING is lanced. Similarly, John Sullivan's PORYGON-Z is overcome by Rocket's attacks. Its LAST RESORT is a defiant last stand before it FAINTS from the onslaught.[break][break]
While ana fell and Lucas Holden escape danger, MATIAS SILPH summons a GROUND SPIKE that spears the CALYREX. The GLASTRIER whinnies as its king is impaled off its back. In the process, Felix Gallagher and his MEGA GALLADE attempt to strike MATIAS SILPH during the distraction.[break][break]
[break][break]
Although the CALYREX is pierced through and separated from its steed, the residual energies from its union manifest as sudden, sputtering GLACIAL LANCES. samuel carter's HOUNDOOM is able to melt a few of these, while akira's GOLURK manages to punch through an icy javelin too.[break][break]
Tempest Quinn's FIRAGARIF sinks its PSYCHIC FANGS into the CALYREX'S NECK—but the teeth can not break all the way through. However, the teeth manage to hold the king in place as GLACIAL LANCES fly from its paws. Eventually, the FIRAGARIF faints from being struck by these, but before it can, it is able to provide pivotal anchoring for the king's execution.[break][break]
soyeon kwan's CHARIZARD blows a sweltering INFERNO on the king. Combined with mint frost's WEEZING and Eva Morales's RAYQUAZA's attacks, the flames burn away what's left of its green bud. jayden cross's CERULEDGE dashes in, bladed arm engulfed in spectral fire. It sinks its blade in, forcing the CALYREX to yelp, poisons sputtering from its mouth.[break][break]
The CALYREX growls fiendishly as if in midst of demonic possession. It flails on spike and blade as Elisabeth Fiorelli's WO-CHIEN engulfs it in the torturous deluge of RUINATION. However, it is fern delaney who takes the kill. His HISUIAN TYPHLOSION summons an INFERNAL PARADE. The barrage of spiritual fire burns through the CALYREX who finally stills within the flickering shape of its attack.[break][break]
When kyle lopez attempts to revive it... THE CALYREX DOES NOT STIR. His power does not seem to work...
GALARIAN CITIES
WHEN THE CALYREX DIES, the white pistil on its head withers too. From it, several RADIANT PETALS emerge from the last remnants of its INFINITY ENERGY. As soon as they land, they create small beams of teleportation: one for each aforementioned location. CIRCHESTER, HAMMERLOCKE, MOTOSTOKE, BALLONLEA. Should one step into them, they will be warped to their location of choice.[break][break]
It is clear that the teleportation beams will not last long... An image of each location can be seen in each beam as if one were peering through a window.[break][break]
The GLASTRIER remains on the outskirts. It is in mourning—but Hideo Kino, with the half-eaten ICEROOT CARROT may be able to coax it over to his side. Should Hideo Kino feed the GLASTRIER with the carrot, or allow someone else too, they will be able to use this noble steed for the event.[break][break]
AFTER EVERYONE WARPS AWAY, the CALYREX would eventually stir once more. The resurrection would have taken some time... but whether this was the right decision remains to be seen, for the king will not be able to return to who it once was.
CHOOSE A LOCATION Your character must indicate which location they would like to go (either verbally - or oocly, in which case, the calyrex will forcibly send them there).
