Matt was thankful for Tekka's healing, feeling the wound start to ease in pain. With a grunt, he would stand fully and start scanning the area. Chaos was everywhere- did he spot Josh Devlin in the distance? Good he can stay the fuck over there and out of his way.

However, his eyes lifted up and went wide at the sight of the tringle formation. Frozen there as he went to lock eyes with the crystalized beast. Blinking slowly, it was the first legendary creature he had ever came into contact with, and it was attacking them.

That's what snapped him out of it. The sight of meteors being thrown at them. Cursing, he grabbed a hold of Nico- hopefully tugging him close to his side. "Aura Sphere to create a shield!" He hollered at Dagger, the canine jumping forward as his paws began to blow bright blue. The Aura spreading fast and expanding in front of him, creating a straight line of energy to block any rocks being shot there way.

"Does Tekka have any status moves? We need to get that thing off our asses!" Matt hissed at Nico, his grip would remain tight on him if he stayed close, not daring letting Nico out of his sight.

Matt held his tongue as Josh assumed. Though it was... possible. A look was shot to Isaac, before he looked around for the remote. Flipping on the tube and grunting as he settled back down.

"Of course she did. She ran like a zubat out of hell to get you, probably." Rubbing his face, he felt so tired. "Being shot was not on the bucket list, but at least I get a cool scar out of it."

Was he trying to lighten the mood? Yes, absolutely, looking up at the TV, snorting at the pokemon cheerleaders. "A Machamp cheerleader is probably the best thing I've seen all day."

Though at the mention of Razz's name, Matt's entire mood soured. He hated that damn man. "Fuck him."

Isaac Merlo

That joke from Julia actually got a snort out of Matt. Who covered his face to snicker, he thought it was pretty funny. "Don't feel to bad, Julia. One of my friends back home can't even swim and she yells at me every time I suggest we go swimming." He said, knowing Aki would be so mad at him for mentioning this.

Seeing Isaac showing off with Blinky... that made Matt's brow arch. Smirking, he leaned towards Nana. "Go." He whispered, and the canine took off in a whirlwind of fur, blurring past Isaac as Matt pulled his eyelid down and stuck out his tongue.

Show off.

To marry nicodemus unken!

Survey 6:
My boyfriend, duh. But honestly a good sense of humor and chill attitude are my go-to

(Answered ICly)

Matt looked at Josh, frowning at what he was saying. His eyes flickered to Isaac, then back. Falling silent, he didn't see a text yet. Tch. But he put the phone down for now, rubbing his eyes. He decided to step up and make the fib for Isaac.

"I was chasing down some rocket scum. They got away, then next thing I know I was shot from behind. I don't know if it was someone with the rocket or if someone thought I was one too and fucked off once they realized they fucked up." He shrugged, making the cover up.

God he hurt, and now felt dizzy, so he laid back. ".... How did you even get here, Josh?" He didn't even know.

Isaac Merlo

As Matt raced past his boyfriend, he turned to look at him, shouting. "Love you babe!" Then he rushed forward, he needed to regain lost ground. Wasting Nana's moves here would be pointless, save them for the last nit. That would work better, at least in his mind.

They'd go through the course, as Matt tried to take that damned u-turn, he hated these things. He leaned off the saddle once again to try and assist Nana in her turn, hoping the canine was able to control her speed to get through.

"Uh."

Shit, where were his pokeballs? He had been stripped of his clothes for the surgery, looking around cluelessly- until Kazzy presented them to Matt. "Thanks, bud. Still not used to being big." He teased, ruffling his head tuff. "Now you're a big tough guy, protectin' me and all." He knew his pokemon were upset. Kazzy even handed him his cell phone with a face.

"Thaaaanks." He huffed. Kazzy gave him a look, crossing his arms. "Oh don't act like Nana at me." Huffing, he went to return the arcanine, and staring at his phone. It was late and he doubted Nico was even awake, so he sent a message.

'You up?' To nicodemus unken

If he didn't answer soon he'd call, and get yelled at, whoohoo. Then he turned serious. "When I find out who shot me I'm kicking their ass all the way into the fucking meteor and leaving them there."

Isaac Merlo Josh Devlin

Matt was... disappointed. Almost angry, but he looked to Nana. Who looked far more disappointed in herself for failing her trainer. Matt patted her mane, softly sighing. "Sorry.." He told her, feeling it was half his fault.

It wasn't until Josh came up, Matt giving him a weary smile. "Yeah.." The mumble, blinking as he soon came up and... offered the badge. "Huh?" Staring at it, he looked up at him, smiling and taking it. "Didn't think I earned it... so thanks." He went to pin it to his vest, pulling his visor back...

"....Id on't know that lady." He meant his mother.

Honestly, the lore of old was more of Nico's thing of choice. Matt wasn't big into fantasy, the genre always escaped him. However, the chance to get a living demon sword? Yeah, that was up his alley.

Plus he wanted to give the biggest FU to his future father-in-law, who had one of the sad pokemon. Honestly how he heard about this was kind of funny. Some weird LARPers were off in town, declaring the days of yore were coming back, that the angry demon-swords were coming back to take revenge on the ones who had slain them and they became swords.

To Matt it sounded like hogwash, like someone was watching that weird n ew show House of Dragonite. What were these people thinking? Whatever, he just wanted to try and get his hands on a sword and be cool like Isaac Merlo.

Just off he went, on a demon sword hunting quest like he was some wannabe knight.
