While Mr. Roche had gotten wind of a number of positively fascinating happenings occurring near Fortree City recently, he had not expected to arrive on-site to a beleaguered Eon Duo and the consequent environmental fallout.
[break][break]
Preferring the high ground in this sort of weather, he strode along one of the high cliffs toward his intended bridge crossing, appearing both utterly drenched and supremely unbothered, and he may well have been the only one. He could see the kerfuffle in the distance, but that wasn't his concern - numerous trainers and their pokemon were already engaged attempting to free the Latias from its infection, and his focus was informational, regardless.
[break][break]
As he neared the bridge, a wayward MIST BALL erupted from the source of the conflict, tearing through the wooden slats with concussive force and ripping the bridge from one side of its moorings, leaving it to hang crazily from the sole line now holding it up. Roche raised an eyebrow, clicking his tongue. "Inconvenient," he murmured to no one but the storm.
[break][break]
Goodness, they would need funding to recover from this - the collateral damage was already apparent, and he hadn't even been by the Weather Center he'd gotten wind of to see whether the facility could withstand something like this. At the very least, he was happy to provide, but if the damage proved too extensive, he might have to take a closer look at the interest rate he put in place for his assistance.
[break][break]
Gesturing to his Meowth, he nodded toward the bridge. With an obedient growl, the small feline dashed forward and SLASHED through the remaining support, causing the bridge to tumble completely into the valley below. "Mm," he smiled blandly as his pokemon returned. "Better this than having it break with someone trying to cross, don't you think?"
[break][break]
Well. The damage might be a bit more extensive than his first evaluation determined.
[break][break]
Pity.

[attr="class","star2tsu4"]She leans against a tree. Panting, she wonders whether she's seeing things by now. Was this a hallucination, or just a mirage? Or was it something more?[break][break]

"Damnit... Ai, can you... can you see it too?"[break][break]

The seedling at her side nods affirmatively, offering Tsubaki a look of concern. The girl ignores that, glaring up at the thing struggling with toxic chains popping up all over its body.[break][break]

"Alright... that's all I needed to hear."[break][break]

The tree blocks the heavy rains all around them. Venturing out in this is a fool's errand. [break][break]

"Gonna need some sun here..."[break][break]

The seedling nods, turning up at the sky. Focusing all her efforts, she envisions a sun in her mind's eye. A few minutes of solid concentration later and a hole of light pokes through the clouds, breaking the worst of the storm.[break][break]

"Good... now just gotta..."[break][break]

Baki takes a step, and falters. Cursing, she picks herself up out of the mud, her strength failing her at the worst moment. [break][break]

It seems the mirage has vanished. [break][break]

Josh had received a call from the Weather Institute that top-level trainers were requested to help with defending the place from a Latias on a rampage. Something didn't sound right to him; weren't those two supposed to be benevolent? Thankfully he wasn't too far away, just having returned from an operation with Knight Naito . He couldn't expect to help the Latias with just his Pyroar brigade; he needed something faster. Sending his pride back to Mauville, he requested his secretary encapsulate Resheph and send her to Fortree via Pokémon Storage System.

Mounting upon the Dragonair's back, Josh slithered and swished through the air at EXTREME SPEED, reaching the Weather Institute quickly. It was far worse than he thought it could ever be: Latios seemed to be fighting his sister in an effort to rid her of the TOXIC CHAINS' influence. He couldn't even get close to the two without being bombarded by stinging MIST BALLS that blanked his mind. With her rider in a trance, Resheph was on her own. As much as she didn't want to, she fired a THUNDER WAVE toward the Latias to try to keep her from moving. Once Josh came to, he could more carefully examine the Eon Pokémon. While he was no medical expert, he could get one to help.

If only it were that simple; every THUNDER WAVE was deflected by another wave of MIST BALLS that ultimately repelled them both. Sighing, he entered the Weather Institute and requested to use their PC. He would need more specialized Pokémon than a Dragonair to help the ultrafast psychic dragons...

She's too late.

By the time Mitsuru had arrived to Route 119, the battle is already over. Latios and Latias are long gone. In that sense, the entire trip was a waste. But that was just a pessimistic view of things! Looking at it optimistically... Um... At least running over here helped her get her cardio in? Okay, there's no glass half-full way of looking at this. The glass isn't even half-empty, either. The glass is just empty.

Ugh... If only that bridge hadn't collapsed! She lost so much time taking that big diversion to get across the river... And now she ended up coming all this way and getting soaked by the rain for nothing! This sucked. This SUCKED. Uggggggggh...

Still, there was no point crying over spilt milk. So, breathing a dejected sigh, the mystic turned back the way she came, and began the long trip back to Slateport.

Tropical rains referenced, pogging out with 3 mochi.

The reports of a tormented Latias put urgency in Lydia’s step. The Eon Duo were a beautiful mythology of light and joy. They were not meant to be tormented. Whatever sick bastard was doing this would pay. Perhaps not today or tomorrow but in the court of Arceus. The poor thing is frenzied. This is the veteran’s thought as she watches the Latias dash back and forth, its panic apparent.

While she did not hesitate against many of the other possessed, she could not immediately move. Gatien and her Iron Valiant seemed surprised by this. Their inscrutable, pixelated eyes stared at her with apparent confusion. They shuffled in place, eager to deal with another threat. In between the two, her Kingdra hovers above the muddied earth. There is pity in his fiery gaze.

The woman’s slicker keeps off the worst of the torrential rains. But through the humid veil, it is tough to see the creature in question. That is made worse by the balls of Mist hurled in every direction. We need to hold it still. This is her thought as she chews at her lips. She certainly wishes to assist the Liatias, but its rampage is dangerous. Perhaps they could reuse a trick from earlier?

“Triton!” The Kingdra dips his head. “Wait until her brother nears and erect a Twister. This should aid him with his extraction.” Hopefully, it would also shoot the Mist Balls away from the bluff they stood on.
