Infected civillians, Garbodor, Revavroom, and now ultra beasts - namely Pheromosa. What was going on with these pokemon, and where were these Toxic Chains all coming from?

Makoto wasn't sure - but what they knew was these pheromones would be trouble for a lot of their own pokemon. Their best solution, in the moment, was to let out Midori - the mechanical Iron Leaves would be unaffected by the pheromones, and thus able to help herd these infected insects...

PHEROMONES


"A bronze feather." He muttered as he turned his wrist, looking over the object curiously as chaos and battle reigned around him.

Rising back to his feet, the man pocketed the feather before turning back to the chaos going on around him.

His pokemon fought fiercely to subdue the numerous Pheromosa running about, joining in on the other responder's efforts with great zeal. Fortunately, the toxic chains were weighing down the otherwise inordinately speedy ultra beasts, so it seemed to the blonde the efforts wouldn't take too long.

So, he glanced away and back to his pocket instead, before turning his gaze skyward in search of anything.


TL;DR:
-finding the bronze feather hee hoo.

An Iron Crown stepped up to greet the Pheromosa. The automaton, thanks to being genderless, found themselves spared from the pheromones that caused infatuation.

The Pheromosa attempted to zig-zag around the Cobalion-like Pokemon, to throw it off. Unfortunately for the Ultra Beast, the Paradox Sword's Tachyon Cutter homed in on them. No matter how convoluted their movements became, there was no evading the Tachyon Cutter, as the pair of particle blades cut the seductive bug down.

Another Pheromosa attempted to take out the Iron Crown with a High Jump Kick. Though the attack landed, it still wasn't enough to bring down the automaton, who retaliated with a Metal Burst, taking out another Pheromosa.

As the battle raged on, Thomas discovered a Bronze Feather on the ground. Quickly picking it up, he made a mental note to get it examined later.

What on earth was…

He blinked several times at the sight that met his eyes. Why were these—the annoying, pesky, cockroach-looking Pokémon (look, to Lars the Pheromosa resemble cockroaches, okay) doing, kicking anything and everything that they could lay their eyes on—

“Ow!” he yelped as he got a quick, powerful kick to the shins by one of the passing Pheromosa.

Ouch, that was going to hurt for a while.

“The fuck’s got you cheesed?!” he yelled after the Pokémon… Ultra Beast… that snickered at him, off to find more unsuspecting, poor humans to kick in the nuts shins out of sheer spite.

A single bronze feather sits on the ground. Squatting down, the sheriff picks it up. Holding the feather up to the light, he wishes he was an expert on avian Pokemon. Part of his brain screams it’s just a Pidgey feather, not worth kicking up a fuss about.[break][break]
Roland, his Iron Valiant, screams a robotic war cry. It sounds like metal grating against a chalkboard. The feather drops out of his hand. Pheromosa are as deadly as they are beautiful. One kicks Roland, sending him skidding across the ground. Piercing his blade into the ground serves well enough for stopping momentum.[break][break]
Ultra Beasts, too? Man. Someone tell these guys the war ended years ago?” Neither Roland or the Pheromosa care for the joke. Instead, they clash once again. With the Pokemon slowed down by the chain, Navy can see at least part of the fight. Pheromosa sprays something in Roland’s face. From its body language, the creature thinks this will be a decisive blow. Instead, the flat of Roland’s blade hits her upside the head. The beautiful ultra beast falls, defeated.[break][break]
Arceus. What’s next?” He asks, the feather forgotten.

It's hard not to be enthralled by the enchanting way the Pheromosa dart around the city. Their movements remind Luka of ballet dancers; controlled and precise, with an ethereal grace that has her spellbound. It's hard, sometimes, to remember that their beauty is only matched by their deadliness.[break][break]

Luckily, her Spectrier is immune to their charms. The ghostly steed whinnies as they carry Luka through the streets of Petalburg, and she snaps out of her stupor with an abrupt shake of the head. "Gosh...ah, t-thank you," she murmurs, stroking a hand through her mount's mane.[break][break]

With another neigh, Spectrier sends bursts of necrotic energy towards the dancing bugs, blasting a few out of their path. It seems a shame to attack them, but there doesn't seem any other way to quell this outbreak...[break][break]

Beasts rip and tear through the fabric of space to invade our world, poisonous bugs looking to step on our future to climb to paradise. So it is only natural then that one would fight one beast with another.
[break][break]
"Low Kick, Triple Kick, Stomp." Xenon calmly orders as Nobellium rushes into the frenzy and assaults their brethren with a flurry of kicks, a protector of the weak by pure happenstance as the Ultramodernist investigates Petalburg. The fight is hardly even a concern to her even as Nobellium fights three other Pheromosas at once, a ghostly nightmare whips out from her shadow and slams into one with a Dark Pulse of energy just as its about to get the jump on them.
[break][break]
What Xenon instead focuses on is the curious Bronze Feather she had found on the ground. "You're not the one that that girl faced in Galar... but you're similar." She remarks as she touches her tongue to the plume and frowns. Similar... but unfamiliar.

 The Smoochum cradled in her arms was OBLIVIOUS the danger around them. Eva remained safely tucked back from the wave of enthusiastic Phermosa to study the scene around them. A persistent PSYCHIC trickled out from the Smoochum’s tiny hands, slowing any of the insects enough for a Ranger or Officer to smash the TOXIC CHAINS.

Eva was otherwise preoccupied. Her head tilted up while her emerald gaze remained firmly set on the sky. THe PHEROMOSA weren’t the only ones oozing the dangerous PHEROMONES they needed to stay away from. Clear minds would help them get through this - whatever this was.

Her teeth slid over her lip, biting hard as she hugged the Smoochum closer to her chest. Her gut stirred uncomfortably as the theories ran across her mind. One thing was for sure: there was more sinister power at work here. This wasn’t simply an infection spreading across an unsuspecting region: this was orchestrated and designed.

’Doctor Morales, we found this.’

Eva pinched her brows and reached out to take the BRONZE FEATHER, twirling it between her fingers while pondering the significance.

there had been few opportunities to use his silvally, but one of such presents itself on a sudden ultra beast outbreak.

"you know what to do."

it was one of the only tasks it can trust its silvally to take seriously. the shift in disposition is clear when it faces with the creatures it was programmed to hunt, and this scenario was no exception.

their toxic chain further pushes them as lambs to the beast killer's slaughter.

as his silvally disposes of threats in their own side of the realm, his hand touches a ball from his hip. cries from the sky earn his attention, getting him anxious for any development that might happen soon.

  • use a GENDER UNKNOWN OR GENDERLESS pokemon.

"C'mon Toxicroak, keep it up..."

Amid the gust that blew past him and the dust that had finally settled after the ground rumbled underneath, he could see the figure of his Toxicroak stand tall...It had been a rough fight, this whole "capture and subdue" mission that the higher-ups had sent him on, but he was sure that Toxicroak would be enough to take down one of the many Pheromosa that littered Petalburg City. However, currently, it doesn't seem like the case at the moment, with how savagely the ultra beast fought...For such a delicate look, it had packed a dangerous punch and a force that at times had made even the strongest grunts' knees buckle under them. And now Laurence found himself locked in battle with one. Both he and one of his few Pokémon he felt best for the job. The amphibian raised its large hands up, the point on each ready to go for a devastating jab before a flash came before it.

CRACK. BOOM!

Laurence didn't know what had happened, or what could have caused the noise, but as he registered it, he found that his Pokémon had no longer been standing before him, but rather the Pheromosa that cleared the distance, its spindly thin leg slowly putting itself back to the ground. Out of reflex, the doctor tried to jump back, wanting to put as much space as he could before he heard the ear-piercing cry the regal Pokémon let out. Shit, one kick and he'd likely die--

Pheromosa rose its leg once more, quick in its attempt to put both the doctor and his partner in endless rest as a lob of thick purple flew towards it, forcing it to bounce back. The lob caught on the ground, its stench of thick acidic contents enough to burn through the intoxicating scent of Pecha Berries, before Toxicroak leaped back in front, its body shielding Laurence once more as it let out a threatening croak, its own way to goad the Pokemon in a manner of 'Bring it.'

While not part of any official group, Lydia was a familiar sight in scenes like this.

Though her military pension provided all she needed, it did not leave her fulfilled. Nor did it offer a luxurious life. But the idea of crawling to her family for a handout—even if they would not miss the money—made her stomach churn. It would be confirming everything Mikael had ever said about her. That she was just a worthless little accident that no one wanted. A feeling that her medical discharge brought to the forefront.

But, as she stared down a row of aberrations—these Ultra Beasts--the void in her being was temporarily filled. A hand grazed her service arms as she turned to her companions.

The Iron Valiant spouted some dings from its fight against Kyurem’s horde, but his posture was confident. The Iron Crown beside him is prancing impatiently, its horns already glowing in its thirst for battle. Minerva, meanwhile, already looked out of sorts. The pheromones in the air were chipping away at the wolf’s willpower. “I believe you should sit this one out.” The trainer gently pets the wolf before returning her to the ball.

That leaves her and her newest companions. “Let’s go.” With a nod, the two moved from the shelter toward the three bugs before them. One of them was currently trying to kick its way into a terrified family’s car. The Bolthunt inside was panting with desire, scratching at the window to reach the poisoned Pheromosa. Without hesitation, the blonde lifted her gun. BANG! The Ultra Beast rocked backward, its ichor flowing from its nick in waves.

“!?” Its dark, fathomless eyes jerk toward the soldier.

Pale lips press into an angry line. “I do not zink he consented to that.” Lydia’s voice is icy. The poison chains on the bug’s wrists jingle as it swells up, and the cloud of pheromones around it darkens. The blonde laughs. “Do not waste your breath on your tricks.” A slashing motion to the Pokemon at her side sends the two Paradoxes racing forward. One slashes at the left Pheromosa with a glowing pink blade. The other launched forward with a steel-emblazoned Smart Strike.
