Ultimate A PATH OPENS
WHEN THE SECRET ENTRANCE OPENS, the entire island quakes. an internalized mechanism churns deep within its depths, out of sight, but a reminder to proceed with caution. like DURANTS, each trainer must scramble underground. the constant throe of battle threatens to pick them off should they dally for too long.
[break][break]
before ollie morales and illeana reyes can enter, several attack bombard their stationary pokemon. some strikes land true, forcing them off the PRESSURED PLATE. with a resounding slam, the entrance closes shut, isolating them from their allies. there will be time to rejoin them later but for now, they must fight to survive. lest they get swept up as another causality in this unending war.
[break][break]
[break]
please coordinate between each other if you would like to create a RACE BATTLE THREAD.[break][break]
you may only participate in a SINGLE race battle thread. the thread will function like a normal battle where your characters can earn MP through the same methods applicable to missions. [break][break]
you may also fulfill the following prompt in your race battle thread for 200 MP:[break]
DELVE INTO THE DEEP
THE CAVE LEADS THEM DEEPER INTO THE DARK. no matter how they try to illuminate their path, there are always more shadows awaiting. the path deepens with every step. soon, the sounds of battle are left behind, muffled by the echoes of their own company.
[break][break]
their spelunking escalates from a sharp decline to a straight drop. upon reaching a clearing, their way forward shifts to downward. right into hell. ropes, pokemon, and whatever other tools they have on them will have to guide them. for many of hoenn’s explorers have acquainted themselves with the unwinding underground of spontaneous TERA TUNNELS.
[break][break]
well into their descent, the sound of heavy footsteps threaten to sway them off their mounts or harnesses. it looms ever closer, ravenous enough to become an entire stampede. fickle orange lights, no bigger than the pokeballs on their belts, grow increasingly larger as they approach.
[break][break]
a swarm of HEATRAN approach! something has disturbed their slumber—something that predates your presence in these caves. you can only assume that something further down has forced them out, inadvertently sicking them on you.
[break][break]
[break]
with open maws, they help light the path, expelling a spray of FLAMETHROWER at any and all that stand in their way. fend them off while protecting yourself! their need to escape will overshadow their aggression. as long as you survive long enough to see it.
[break][break][break][break][break][break]
ROUND 2
PLEASE REVIEW THE MECHANICS SECTION PRIOR TO REPLYING
TO PROCEED, players will have to utilize a collective total of FOUR pokemon who RESIST FIRE or have an attack that's SUPER EFFECTIVE AGAINST HEATRAN.[break][break]
players who wish to participate this round should make a post that: [break][break]
- mentions their pokemon and bold WHY THEY RESIST FIRE or WHAT ATTACK THEY'RE USING against the HEATRANS.
[break][break]
players may pay 500 MP to assist with clearing this obstacle. they must still post but will not be considered ‘used up’ by the race. [break][break]
battle match ups will be posted in the next MOD POST.
RACE MECHANICS RULES
THIS MEGATHREAD will test how well your faction can clear moderator requirements in a timely manner. [break][break]
each player and their representative pokemon is a resource for your faction to utilize. each round will introduce an obstacle that certain pokemon can clear. [break][break]
it is up to players to address these obstacles by following the moderator prompt. [break][break]
it should be noted that each participant can only post ONE TIME. once you have cleared an obstacle, you are essential ‘used up’. [break][break]
the EXCEPTION to this rule is if a participants wants to pay 500 MP. this will allow a player to assist with the obstacle without being ‘used up’. [break][break]
each faction will tackle the same obstacles with different values to reflect the disparity in players. once an obstacle is cleared, a moderator will provide information on which players cleared that particular obstacle. [break][break]
those player may now create a FACTION RACE BATTLE. this is just a battle thread that allows both participants to earn MP.
FAQ
WHICH OBSTACLE SHOULD I CLEAR?
[break][break]
if your pokemon is versatile, you should pick an obstacle your pokemon excels at. for the first round, players with the heaviest pokemon for their faction were tagged as a hint. if no obstacle sticks out, you may want to wait just to ensure your faction does not hit a bottleneck.
[break][break]
however, account for the OOC aspects of this event. if you do not think you will be available later on, or cannot finish a FACTION RACE BATTLE quickly, you may want to clear an obstacle asap.
[break][break]
WHY WOULD I PAY 500 MP TO HELP CLEAR?
[break][break]
to help your faction progress in the event! should one faction fall behind by the end of the event, this will have an effect on the narrative outcome.
[break][break]
another reason you may want to contribute is to post again. some players may enjoy the spotlight or feeling that their character is actively contributing to their faction. however, it should be noted that this does not entitle paying players to rewards or moderated acknowledgement.
[break][break]
WHEN SHOULD I PAY 500 MP?
[break][break]
your faction may run low on resources the longer this event goes on. if they stall due to a bottleneck, that would be the most opportune time to assist. likewise, if your faction is coming close to a deadline, your help may ensure that they clear it on time.
[break][break]
WHY IS THIS EVENT CALLED A RACE?
[break][break]
both faction are attempting to clear obstacles by deadline. should they be unable to, they will face a steeper obstacle or just have to wait longer before the next moderator response. should a large enough gap happen by the end of the event, this will heavily influence the narrative outcome of the event.
[break][break]
WHY IS THERE A DEADLINE INSTEAD OF ASKING US TO MOD REQ WHEN COMPLETED?
[break][break]
the deadline gives both factions X amount of time to clear. should they be unable to clear by deadline, they will be given a static time delay as well. this is to help mitigate the discrepancy in activity between players within a reasonable threshold along with accommodating varied time zones.
DEADLINE
clear the obstacle by SEPTEMBER 22TH, 11:59PM PST to advance without delay. completing the obstacle after this deadline may come with penalties.[break][break]

"me and oreo will go!"
by foot seems to be the only way forward. until the ground suddenly gives away. many snaking paths offer a chance at reaching these ruins but how many will hold up? falling debris disappears into the ether, out of sight, but still heard as it crumbles upon impact.
The GRAVITY was heavy. They feel twice the pressure tethering them to this world despite the distortion and flared around them. 
The GRAVITY of this room is intense. It weighs on him like the world on Atlas’s shoulders. His normally straight posture—something struck into him with stinging yardsticks—is hampered. The upper part of his body hunches as if to lighten the figurative load. In this situation, even the act of lifting a cigarette to his mouth seems a Herculean task.
