dhelmise locked the ship down once mar steered them close enough to the floating kyogre. it was clearly sunbathing or something, but mar had been tracking it for the better half of the day to catch it having leisure time. she released clobbpus and skrelp into the sea, feeding them a net. "ye know the plan already. go get that in position."

people tended to overcomplicate, but life was simple. people constructed elaborate traps or plots for legendaries, but mar? she knew that simple worked best. a little net could contain the stupid thing, especially if she knocked it unconscious. she dropped capsakid on the deck, winking at her little villain as the duo met eyes. "get ready, babe. this is a tough fight fer ye." the capsakid used sunny day, empowering her and doubling her speed. she would need it if she were to launch out to the kyogre and hold her own in its own terrain.

she considered the logistics for a moment. perhaps overqwil could get her over there and ampharos could stun the sea beast.

Unfortunately for Team Rocket, they were not the only ones interested in the rogue Legendary. Another boat sped toward the floating monstrosity, this one part of the fleet used by the Hoenn Bureau of Intelligence and Counterterrorism.[break][break]

Gunner stood in the cockpit, next to a seasoned sailor who was actually driving the vessel. He peered through tactical binoculars at the Kyogre.[break][break]

Movement in the periphery of his vision caught his attention. A short distance away from the colossal Pokémon, another boat bobbed upon the waves.[break][break]

"Is that one of ours?" Gunner asked, pointing.[break][break]

The sailor squinted. "Can't say for sure, sir, but it's not a ship I recognize right away."[break][break]

"Get us closer. I'm going to hail them."[break][break]

"Aye, sir." Their boat's engine roared louder as the vessel picked up speed.

the roar of an engine slowly trickled into mar's conscious awareness, as she had been very focused on giving capsakid a pep talk. in fact, it's the grass type who informs her that there's someone coming. she moved to the edge of her shipam and takes out a nautical telescope, watching the official-looking men approach.

ah. they are not friends, she determined quickly.

mar whistled, stopping skrelp and clobbopus from pursuing kyogre with the neck in their mouth and tentacle respectively. "knock 'em off course," mar shouted; skrelp shot a sludge bomb on the ship, a slower attack with a gorgeous arc in the sky. clobbopus had less tactical options and swam to the ship directly, hoping to climb aboard if the ship get close enough for such a maneuver.

As soon as their boat neared, Gunner saw the Clobbopus and Skrelp with the net between them. A net, really? For Kyogre? he thought, incredulous. But then they turned their attention to him and attacked.[break][break]

"Not friendly, then," Gunner surmised aloud as his companion attempted to swerve the slow-moving SLUDGE BOMB. Selecting two Pokéballs from his belt, he released his own Pokémon.[break][break]

Both ships rocked as his Wailord displaced tons of water. The enormous whale released a WATER SPOUT to collide with the arcing poison. Above, his Bombirdier cried out a warning before diving at the Clobbopus using DRILL RUN.[break][break]

The Kyogre opened its eye and rumbled.

mar stabilized herself as the wailord displaced water and rocked her boat. "skrelp, make 'em act right!" the seahorse generated a smokescreen while bombirdier came down to strike clobbopus, creating a visual disturbance to give clobbopus the opportunity to duck away. capsakid tugged on her leg, but mar tsk'd instead. "don't want ye to fight this guy when yer slated to fight the big man."

she turned to the do-gooder with a sneer. "aye, kyogre doesn't need yer help. and he belongs to the seas, which means he belongs to me." she jabbed a thumb to her chest, then drew her cutlass and aimed it right at him. "ye'd do right to turn 'round the way ye came." with the smokescreen in place, skrelp swam over to the smaller boat, generating a hydro pump to knock the boat away or flip it.

"Shit!" Gunner swore as the thick, inky smoke filled the space between both boats, blocking everything from sight. "Careful," he said to the sailor driving their boat. The vessel slowed down considerably.[break][break]

Just in time for a HYDRO PUMP to push it off course. Gunner automatically grabbed at the control dashboard to steady himself. Then he picked up the mic of the marine-grade PA system built into the boat and pressed the ON button.[break][break]

"This is the HBIC. Stand down now," he said into the mic, which amplified his voice across the waters. "These are dangerous waters and the Legendary beast here is volatile."[break][break]

As if on queue, Kyogre roared and shifted, displacing water in much the same way Gunner's Wailord had. The seas churned with furious violence. A howling gust of wind blew through the area, the herald of a sudden storm. It dispersed the smokescreen just as Kyogre's great mouth opened wide.[break][break]

An ORIGIN PULSE fired, catching both boats in its trajectory.

mar snickered as she imagined the men must be stressed, but her amusement was short lived as an origin pulse shot out. she held tight to the edge of her boat as the origin pulse aggressively struck it, though she knocked her head against the rail and immediately cut open her forehead. her boat tipped sideways but didn't capsize. damn it; dhelmise's weight might actually work against her if the seas continued to cut up so aggressively.

she withdrew dhelmise with its pokeball, letting her boat maneuver normally. the boat took on some water in the angry waters, but mar had to take what she could get. the wailord needed to be taken out so she could attack his boat more directly. she was confident kyogre would break their ship before hers, though hers was traditional and wooden and might already have some cracks below from the origin pulse... she needed to get rid of them quickly.

she tossed the pokeball above the wailord by his tail, releasing the heavy twelve-foot dhelmise which used slam on wailord. with how rugged the waves were, she could get rid of the hbic goon and his sailor buddy and their bodies would be miles and miles away from here before getting found. the ocean would likely bury them. "clob, go an get em!" clobbopus dutifully traveled under the water to get to the boat, though he was slowed by the harsh waves. "we'll show 'em who runs the seas." mar laughed, though her capsakid remained worried as ever by her side.

Gunner swore again, more frantically this time as the ORIGIN PULSE smashed into their ship. The boat nearly capsized, but the enormous waves pushed it back up right. It didn't stop them from getting soaked to the bone, though.[break][break]

"We need to get out of here before that thing tears us apart!" the sailor yelled over the growing rumble of Kyogre's tempest.[break][break]

Before Gunner could respond, a Dhelmise appeared out of a thrown Pokéball and SLAMMED into his Wailord. Viviane bellowed and dove into the depths of the sea to avoid the ghostly anchor. Seconds later, Gunner's Bombirdier swooped in to attack the Dhelmise with DARK PULSE.[break][break]

A sudden shockwave ripped through the ocean as Kyogre BODY SLAMMED into the submerged Wailord. While the two titans duked it out beneath the surface, their attacks whipped the seas into a frenzy.[break][break]

Gunner opened another Pokéball. In the event things went south, his Claydoll could teleport them out. In the meantime, it set up a PROTECT around the boat.

with wailord ducking under, mar caught the way the bombirdier's attack made dhelmise shake as it hit the surface of the ocean and sunk after the wailord, though it clearly was on the edge of its capacity. dhelmise was strong, but it did not often experience battle, and mar couldn't sacrifice losing dhelmise to the fight -- it'd force her to leave her ship at an actual port rather than wherever she wished, which brought scrutiny she couldn't afford as a routine trafficker.

she used the return function on dhelmise's pokeball, bringing the injured ghost type back just before the kyogre body slammed wherehad been floating underwater above wailord. the crash between the two giant pokemon brought a huge wall of water onto mar's boat, soaking her instantly. capsakid cried out in unpleasant surprise, and things became crystal clear: kyogre was far too enraged to be good quarry. even if she could defeat the government agent, her pokemon were not strong enough to fight an angered god into submission within her net.

mar whistled loud and clear.

clobbopus stopped his planned assault on the sailor, turning around to seek refuge at mar's boat. skrelp was already getting the hell out of dodge when the kyogre slammed wailord, already beside the boat and ready for mar. "use yer pump on the boat to get us out of here quickly," she explained, her kalosian accent burying some of the sounds as her panic grew. she returned clobbopus and picked up capsakid, soothing the sopping-wet grass type as skrelp readied a hydro pump to push her boat back to the coast.

mar let capsakid climb to sit on her shoulders, pulling out a nautical telescope to get a good look at the agent in question. she wanted to remember who screwed her over. kyogre was her prize, but she would have to return at a better time. and perhaps with a larger team of pokemon for such an ambitious heist.

The hostile Pokémon from the other boat retreated, and Gunner thought it best if he and his companion did the same. The storm was growing fiercer, and their boat had already taken on some water from earlier waves crashing over the side.[break][break]

"Bedivere, to me!" he shouted over the screaming wind. The Bombirdier obeyed, diving toward the boat so Gunner could return him to his Pokéball. A second Pokéball recalled the Wailord as she BOUNCED out of the sea.[break][break]

The sailor behind the wheel needed no urging to turn the boat the way they'd come. Kyogre bellowed, the sound more ominous than thunder.[break][break]

"Tom, can you give us a hand?" Gunner asked his Claydoll, who levitated at his side.[break][break]

The Pokémon uttered a strange noise in affirmation, then used its psychic powers to propel the boat away from the engaged leviathan and toward safety.[break][break]

As they sped away, Gunner glanced over his shoulder. The other boat was merely a speck against the dark ocean. He hadn't gotten a good glimpse of whoever had been steering it, but he committed its appearance and the three attacking Pokémon, at least, to memory.
