Shi's eyes narrowed as the coin landed and flipped. The suspension filled with a dirty smirk. "Tails," he grinned reaching into his pock and throwing the pokeball into the tank like the boss he was. He had little care in the world for how the basucline survived with his cats. But at the end of the day it was better then giving it to someone who wasn't going to use it. "Well. now we drop it off, leave, enjoy that we ruined a mans day," Shi's devilish smirk moved forward and dropped off with jayden cross . "Shall we work again. Perhaps it'll be a bit more...fun,"


Stealing Basculine

Well Abigail was correct and Shi understand what it meant, and to be honest he was a master of trying to fit in. Pretending to care about people and their concerns, but more often then not his face betrayed him. His lack of interest in people who proposed no morals to destroy. Then again, he had to just learn to be a human being too. Which was were he struggled, but he tried his best to blend, and that wasn't always the best thing to do. "Perhaps but both worlds are valid, however one gives more permeant results." Shi mentioned as he stood up, "Well it was a great reunion, and you gave me a lot to remember Abigail. Perhaps our brother will show up soon to lecture me as well," he brought his pokemon with him. 

Abigail Mikhaylov

How Abigail turned into a good two shoes. What a shame, there was so much potential. She could have been something a bit more...cut throat. No shit from anyone. Do as you want but not everyone could be like him. Manipulative and calculative got results but not everyone could get results like them. "Very superficial. Appearance is only temporary and can be changed." not that he could fully judge her or anything, but he'd be the one to slide in a back handed compliment. "The truest way to change and make an impact is plastic surgery. I'd be aiming for something higher then cosmetologist. " hair was the easiest thing to change in people.

A devilish smirk slithered onto Shi's face as his corruption took root. Everyone had to appeal to a simple logic, no matter how flawed. As long as you pushed those morals people would either adapt or snap, most would snap if their morals were questioned. Now this was just a simple matter, cheat your boss and client out of the reward. It wasn't like Shi couldn't set up a lie, as one would assume Rocket would do for their own greed. Shi was just fanning the flames, feeding the small thought in the back of your brain like a mouse in the wall.

"A basculine? Must be special. yummy yummy. could cook. but known to be gross. better than magikarp but still disgusting in flavor. Bitter and bland. Not good to eat. tried home. terrible. terrible least favorite, mother cooked it all the time." Shi stuck out his tongue, "But if there's something special about it. then perhaps we keep. Don't tell. drop off aquarium. say someone stole what was inside when reports. we steal, we enjoy fish." sly as always, playing a joyful person, jokes, pure jokes. Even though he himself was more entertained on the notion of how simple lies could compel someone to go against the provider.

"chance. chance is best. coin flip." he grinned, "Tails," the man stared at the coin as it spun.

Shi's eyes glanced up at the giant tree, and well women who thought she was queen of forests. She seemed to deem him as the reason for the wrong doings of these pokemon. Perhaps she wasn't a person of science? Maybe she was too narrow minded to accept modern medicine. Who knew. Although Shi stepped to the side and around the pokemon and past her. "No. Human is unlikely. Could be a disease humans made. Yes yes...likely...but what purpose." the man glanced back up. "there had been reports of brain rot in normal pokemon. Psychic types have a problem causing it. Must keep away until I can remove the infection." of course he didn't say he'd kill them but still.

With a Glameow near by that was approaching an Espurr, that seemed a little bug eyed... maybe crazy. Who knew. "Liepard," he quickly dispatched his cat, to remove the threats of the psychic type. However the risk for the Glameow was still present. "take it down, best outcome. keep until safe. maybe keep for self...don't know...either way infection too dangerous to risk exposure." the pokeball was throw the moment it was taken down. "You should remain distant. research still needed for proper prognosis but population more important then the few that need removing. Perhaps the cause of the disease is pokemon that don't belong. maybe human pollution. should check. find and see. come or don't your decision. Trevenant should be good at finding things, tall, big, has roots, can tell pollution maybe?"

@raine  Capture attempt on Glameow

Sure aura reading was great for locating people, but what would happen if your aura was....seemingly off putting, nearly non-existent. Did that mean you lived in a state of death, or the numbness and shadows just took over. Maybe it was more like peering into the darkness only to have it reflect you. Maybe that's what the Lucario would see as the rocket man stepped down the steep hills. Liepard was no different, except it's vibrant red aura stank of blood. The cat lurked in the trees, remaining silently hidden among the foliage. Her nose flaring as he whiskers twitched to the grunt of pain.


"Ah...there!" the man grinned following the cat. "Could be steep, need to be careful. Biking most likely flipped, injuried by slope...rocky with a lot of sticks and small trees.... if alive most likely broken bones...cuts and bruises. Could be fun," Not long after declining the rocks, he found the person injuried, while Liepard circled the area treating herself to pidgey because it was a job well done. "Hmmmm" Shi moved to inspect the man, feeling his neck for a pulse, it was faint...what a shame. "Hmmm invisible injury possible...should look. yes yes should look," he turned upwards to see some thing flying, "Oh...visitors. don't need. maybe I should remove them. But high ground...not good, i can't fly...damn."

Laurence Anderson

The risk, the thrill of being caught, the mind games that would have been played if they just had stopped at the check point but Jayden had agreed not to go through the check point, rather than going head first into it. "I will message them the back up location." The black eyes man turned off road casually. "I'm curious....what is so special about this fish....that it is fetching such a high price....maybe rare color? no... diet maybe?... no. new species? no couldn't be. Wouldn't make sense." he thought out loud taking the back roads, which seem to have been packed with more rockets, perhaps these distortions had people on edge, or the maybe their dealing got leaked. "There's a lot....expecting us? Or on edge from happenings in region. Don't know. No real safe route." 

It's easier to push the blame onto someone else if you let them make the decisions, and you just get to pick and probe them. "May have to carry pokemon to location. Might be easier....if we take fish instead." Shi's words slipped out like the serpent from the tree. "nothing says in the briefing..... when it had to be delievered. Can deliever another time, or not at all. most likely not good man. pokemon may die. be trophy. or worse. maybe a rare meal. yes likely a rare meal. I would try... you?" Weirdo ramblings....but he did have a point to make this mission a little bit easier on them.

Shi looked at his phone as he buckled in, the eevee sitting beside him. "Hmmm Some sort of rich man wanting it for his aquarium....so It seems. It's most likely a lie or a black market deal." he mentioned as he turned the key to allow the engine to start humming. With his foot on the pedal he began driving closer to the drop off. Luckily for them it seemed to be going off well, until they got closer with a lot of League activity. "Theres an unprecedented amount of activity here." commented to the man in the back. "There's a stop up ahead.....we can either try to go through it, or find a way around. There is a back route, but there is no promising guarantee. "
