The sun was high, the wind was mild, and the waves were bitchin' here in Lilycove. It was the perfect day to grab a towel, surfboard, or sand castle bucket and head down to the beach. The city populace seemed to collectively decide to do just that, creating a community of fun upon the beach. Though, as with every time the beach got busy, the activity would attract the attention of wayward wingulls in need of a solid meal.

Everyone knew by now that bringing food to the beach was a bad idea, so the gulls would be left want from afar as the beach-goers did what beach-goers do. However, a figurative cloud was about to rain on today's happy vibes. An agent of chaos that enjoyed causing mischief just to see what would happen.

Ambrose had arrived fairly late in the afternoon, dressed only from the waste down in slacks and loafers. His sunglasses reflected a visage of dark orange rays, creating menacing aura. He had a drawstring bag slung over his shoulder, the contents of which would create unimaginable mayhem should they be unleashed.

He was in a good mood, strutting toward the center of the beach while whistling a tune. Once he arrived at his apparent destination, Ambrose would let out a content sigh and take in the atmosphere. He was surrounded by such beautiful visions of joy and harmony, it was hard not to feel giddy himself. Basking in the glow of this communal merrymaking, Ambrose would casually open up his bag and dump its contents.

What fell from the maw of his insidious bag was exactly eighty two loose slices of white bread. Once his payload was delivered, Ambrose slung the bag over his shoulder and trotted away to find a good view for the oncoming pandemonium. His plan worked almost immediately, the behavior of the looming gulls shifting before anyone could notice what had happened. By the time the pile of bread was noticed, it was too late. The flock descended upon the beach like a storm, and the bird-pocalypse began.

[attr="class","rowwtw"]Wind whipped around Rowan as he soared through the skies, clutching tightly to the saddle of his Pelipper. It had been a while since he'd been this close to a metropolitan area, but the Jetstream dictated his route this day. What he hadn't expected was the Pokémon's sudden movement towards the earth.[break][break]

"Sirocco, what are you..."[break][break]

The jarring motion nearly caused Rowan to lose his balance, knuckles becoming white as he gripped the reins. The Pelipper dipped low onto the sand and scooped up and entire slice of bread into their mouth, gulping the gluten into their gullet.[break][break]

"Hells bells, Sirocco." Rowan lamented, glancing about for the source of this bread-based disruption.

The Wingull descended upon the beach like ravenous dogs. At first they focused on the pile of bread, a frenzy of wings and beaks ripping apart the fluffy offering. Beach-goers near the frenzy were forced to flee, as Wingull that could not immediately snatch up some bread spread out in search of more food. Ambrose cackled at the chaos, he knew it was going to be insane but the blood-less carnage exceeded his expectations. He was pretty sure he saw a damn pelipper with their rider still on board jump into the fray. It was truly a feast to remember!

Unfortunately the bread was finite, and as the last crumb was stolen there were a great deal of Wingull left that had empty bellies. Unable to accept that all of the food was gone, they branched out across the beach in search of sustenance. Soon, a problem that had gone mostly unnoticed had completely engulfed the beach. Familes, couples, friend groups, solo explorers, no one was safe from the insistent Wingull! The birds were pecking at heads, pulling at hair, stealing everything from towels to backpacks, just causing a whole mess of mischief.

Ambrose laughed harder still at this escalation, the whole beach was in a panic! This went better than he could have hoped! However, he would find that the gulls did not discriminate with their torment. A wingull would land on his head, and the disgusted Ambrose would wave his arms to dismiss it. "Damn pest, leave me be!" This one wingull was replaced by three more, who fluttered their wings in his face and pulled at his precious pink hair. Ambrose immediately regretted this misadventure.

"Help! They're trying to eat my hair HELP ME!!!"

[attr="class","rowwtw"]An eyebrow rose higher with each passing moment as the chaotic scene unfolded before him, unsure of what events he'd found himself suddenly thrust unto. There was business that needed his attention, but something inside Rowan made him want to see how this plays out.[break][break]

"Wingull don't normally eat hair." He called out to the man, leaning against the saddle of his Pelipper. "Do you wash it with fish oil or something?" An amused smirk crawled across Rowan's lips, a genuine glee at their harmless predicament.[break][break]

"Alright, I'll help you out." Sirocco finished gulping down their bread slice and lurched forward, lifting upwards into a floating position. A swift beat of their wings called forth a TAIL WIND, generating a powerful gust that dispersed the bread and therefore the Wingull, but also further messing up Ambrose's hair.[break][break]

"How's that?"

Ambrose's cries were luckily caught by the very same rider that had briefly lost control of his pelipper. The mighty bird used a massive gust of wind to disburse the gulls--and blow out Ambrose's hair. As his once perfect pink strands settled into a messy nest, Ambrose slumped in resigned humiliation. He supposed this was what the kids today called 'Karma'.

"Thanks." He said flatly before running his fingers through his hair to straighten it out. He probably should have ran away instead, as by the time he finished there would be even further escalation. The Wingulls were not amused by the pelipper's interference, and soon enough an angry swarm would create a perimeter would the bird and its rider...as well as the nearby Ambrose.

Ambrose gulped as he realized how dire the situation was. After wiping sweat from his brow, Ambrose would pull a pokeball off of his belt. "I guess I have no choice." He opened the ball, revealing a vibrant Mime Jr. Ambrose squatted near the cheering mime, "Quickly Ripper, protect daddy!" Ripped let out a whimsical cry, swinging its arms to pull up a wall of psychic energy to protect himself and his master (Reflect). Ambrose briefly peeked out from behind the wall, giving the pelipper rider a thumbs up to assert moral support.

The cringe was evident on Rowan's face, even if the man was simply referring to their own Pokémon. That word had been decimated forever, it no longer could be seen in any context except the unholy in the former Beast's mind. "Arceus..." He bemoaned as he saw the man take cover, leaving him to deal with the situation alone.[break][break]

"Sirocco, Hydro Pump, cut a hole!" A finger pointed towards where the swirling swarm was weakest. The Pelipper's gullet swelled with water, gathering into a massive payload before being unleashed outwards.[break][break]

As intended, the powerful gout of water burst open a hole in the wall of avians, disbursing them momentarily. "Come on, mate!" Rowan gesture towards the manufactured exit, but didn't hesitate to head forth first himself, Sirocco in tow.
