She was absolutely annoyed with the amount of people that stood in her way coming here. There was a job to be done and it would have probably been half way over at this point if those idiots just moved aside and let her get into the plant.

She didn’t have much stake in whether or not this plant was being used properly; it being operational would help her in the long run.

From time to time she would do work in Mauvile and its expansion would give her more options so these pests causing issues needed to be dealt with. And not being alone would make things go faster which was nice.

”The biggest gathering of Pokémon appears to be deeper in the plant, we’ll start there.” She relay to her partner.

It's not the first time Gavin's been to New Mauville, and he doubts it'll be the last. He'd spent a great many hours searching for suitable test subjects for Cadis and even outside of his work with Rocket, the large population of steel-types was a personal lure.[break][break]

He sends his Emboar out in preparation for dealing with those steel-types, and nods curtly in acknowledgement of Eva's words.[break][break]

"Understood, ma'am."

It did not take them long to run into a swarm of magnemites and they were nowhere close to the generators. Add on top of that the steel types not looking so pleased to have intruders in their home and they were off to a great start.

”Sheesh so many of them already?!” Thinking about it, this number of magnemties wasn’t that much of a surprise but Eva was already regretting not just letting a bunch of grunts take care of this crap.

”Alright let’s clear them out. Don’t waste too much energy, there will probably be more the deeper we go.” And probably stronger Pokémon as well.

She used her own two fire types to start clearing them out. Their aim was to just disperse the Pokémon and as such her Pokémon’s attack weren’t particularly being aimed at anyone magnemite but just near them to spook them off. But if some were caught she wouldn’t really care.

"More than usual."[break][break]

Gavin frowns at the observation. He's been here enough times to know that such dense congregations in a single spot was strange. Perhaps they were getting close to evolving, all scrambling to secure their place as Magneton.[break][break]

Nodding, he motions to his Emboar.[break][break]

Smashing her meaty fists together, the dual-type heats things up with a flamethrower. Following suit with Eva's Pokemon, she targets no foe in particular but corrals the group of pesky Magnemite out of their way.[break][break]

Venturing further in, Gavin confirms, "There's more of them. And — ah."[break][break]

A Magnezone hovers protectively over this group, more of a threat than the Magnemite alone had been. Maybe that's why there's so many?[break][break]

This time, he instructs his Emboar to direct the flamethrower at their largest foe.

Absolutely fantastic! A Magnezone appearing was just what they needed to make what should be just a simple job into something much more annoying.

Though this could explain why there were so many of the little ones about but alas they weren’t here to figure out why they’re here but to just get rid of them and Eva was more than happy to comply with that order.

Up until this point all the Rocket members were doing was trying to scare the steel types off but with this big one taking it out would probably be the quickest way of handling it.

”Back our friend up.” One of her fire types stopped what they were doing and changed targets to the Magnezone and firing off a flamethrower attack of their own. And of course, things couldn’t be this simple and another one had to appear, forcing Eva to stop her other Pokémon and engage this new appearance.

Her other Pokémon would be more than enough to deal with the Magnezone there was still the issue of all the other Magnemite that were still floating about. Eva released her Gardevoir to send psychic waves throughout the area to get the magnets to bugger off.

With their attention being split between so many things they’d have to remember not to allow themselves to get surrounded and overwhelmed by the Magnemites. The appearance of their evolved form made them much more willing to fight.

Gavin's lip curls, betraying his displeasure at their sudden predicament. A group of Magnemite were childs play, but two Magnezone? It was starting to get a little ridiculous.[break][break]

He steps back, placing his back against a wall and noting potential exits in case things went south. Twin flashes of dull red light release two of his Pokemon from captivity: his Corviknight, who emerges with an indignant quark, and an Alolan Sandslash with darkened spines and a feral snarl. It is not often he releases such a hateful, vicious creature in the company of others, but the shadow Pokemon was one of his strongest assets in battle.[break][break]

"Pest control," he orders, signalling the encroaching Magnemite.[break][break]

It hurls a series of icicle spears that splinter against the metallic Pokemon and leave a biting frost in their wake; though the attacks prove ineffective from a standpoint of raw power, the frostbite they cause is undeniably useful. Even now, Gavin finds himself equally fascinated and unnerved by the icy Pokemon's ferocity.[break][break]

There's little time to dwell on it. He orders the bird to assist Emboar in taking down the Magnezone, and the silver-feathered avian dives toward it with a body press.

With Eva’s Gardevoir focusing on the little ones her two fire types could focus on the Magnezone that was a real pain in the ass. The scientist looked over to Gavin, making sure he was handling his own and wasn’t being overwhelmed. Seeing that he was doing fine put the woman’s mind at ease, she could cut loose a bit more.

”Ifrit clear a path for Soliel, use flamethrower. Soliel use Heat Wave.” Eva ordered which her Pokémon did quickly. The flamethrower made way for the Volcarona to get in the midst of the steel enemies and release her attack, the flames leaving her body in a beautiful eruption that consumed the surrounding magnemite and magnezone.

And it was enough to get the job done, with the remaining magnet Pokémon running away. Good, they can get the hell out of here. Eva would order her Pokémon to assist Gavin, though it looked like the man would be able to pull himself through it.

Previously warmed by the presence of so much active machinery, the space they're in chills beneath the presence of Gavin's Sandslash. As gooseflesh spreads up the arms of the scientist, frost creeps across the floor.[break][break]

The blast of heat from the fire-types is a welcome reprieve from the cold, though his Sandslash does not seem to share the sentiment. It rounds on its allies with a vicious snarl and its claws shine metallic threat. It leaps toward the Incineroar only to be swallowed up by the red light from the Pokeball that Gavin now holds.[break][break]

Shadow Pokemon sacrificed control for raw power; it had been useful while it had behaved.[break][break]

The capsule rattles in his hand, but Gavin appears unperturbed.[break][break]

"Finish it," he orders the Corviknight, who slams into the Magnezone once more and drives it into the ground with the sound of twisting metal.

Had it not been for Gavin’s swift response he might be down a shadow Pokémon right now. Eva did not take kindly in one losing control but given that nothing really came of it she let it pass for now.

This did however make her hope that they weren’t handing any of these out to idiots who had no right handling them. Last thing they needed was for a job to go awry because someone couldn’t handle their Pokémon.

Now with the defeat of the Magnezones and with the clearing out of most of the magnemites the stragglers took note of their standins and decided to disperse as well.

With a job well done, there was no point in sticking around here anymore. ”Good job.” Eva returned her Pokémon back to their capsules.


”That should be enough for the plans to keep moving forward, the pest shouldn’t be coming back. So let’s get out of here.” The rocket scientist would leave, their job here was done.

Sandslash's pokeball feels cold in his grip — glancing down, Gavin notes the ice that's spread across the surface of the sphere. The ball gives another violent shake before the Pokemon inside succumbs to its confinement, and the scientist clips the ball back to his belt.[break][break]

Amber eyes flick up to Eva's, and Gavin nods.[break][break]

"If they do, you know who to call."[break][break]

He made it a point to be available for whatever Rocket needed him for, even if it had nothing to do with scientific pursuits. He was out to distinguish himself from the rest, wearing his ambitions to shield whatever lay within.
