[nospaces] [attr="class","lam"] [attr="class","body"] [attr="class","sideinfo"] [attr="class","charimage"] [attr="class","pkmn"] [attr="class","text"] “Wasn’t really aware I had a rep to precede me,” he replies with a shrug, though the remark does well to leave him with the budding of something close to pride in his chest. He does train hard to maintain cohesion between multiple parties of his team so that they’re always versatile.[break][break]
But right about then he wishes he’d done the sneaky thing and kept his altaria or pidove’s pokeball in his pocket as he typically does.[break][break]
Within seconds, Egg vanishes in a red flash of light—the pokeball nicked from Lam’s hip by the tricky little greninja. There’s a lag in his mind because in such a short window, he’s still a few steps behind processing the oddity of Navy’s remark about perfect worlds.[break][break]
“Wha—“ Fingers close on open air as he reaches out with a swipe seconds too late. “Egg!” A panicked sort of sensation prickles under his skin, reminding him of that helplessness he’d felt in the deep sea. Powerless as his quaquaval was kept out of reach.[break][break]
That anxiety flutters in his chest like a warning of how easily he could unravel if he doesn’t focus.[break][break]
Darting forward, he tries to follow the descent of the greninja as it disappears from sight, but the spread of hazy fog prevents him from locking on. Again, there’s that hum like live wires in his nerves.[break][break]
The continuation of the gym leader’s declaration only somewhat registers with him. He’s too concentrated on the sudden burst of rock and dust erupting to one side. All of it happening in rapid succession no doubt meant to confuse the situation further.[break][break]
That, and he’s right, of course. Lam knows that full well now.[break][break]
Exposed, the curse ripples through Mac, and when the toxitricity turns back toward Lam there’s a noticeable lag in his pace. The realization jolts through him—at least for the moment. They’re outnumbered, significantly so. That meant playing smart for the time being. Think, think. What had he done to see in the dark out in the rift?[break][break]
“If we’re gonna find Egg, we need some light, yeah?” He didn’t have his shinx now to brighten up the dark, but the toxitricity didn’t need much instruction.[break][break]
The pale blue ridge on his head and spine glowed with collected energy before he DISCHARGED a powerful flare of electricity that surrounded him in a wide radius.[break][break]
Rather than focus on the effectiveness on his attack on the runerigus, though, the gym trainer looks around—using the burst of light as a beacon in the hope of finding the greninja’s hiding place.[break][break]
As the effect of Mac’s attack begins to fade, however, the roar of the steelix alerts him to its descent. “Dodge!” but even as the command leaves his mouth, he knows the toxitricity will be too slow, hindered by the curse weighing on him.[break][break]
Without the shielding his togekiss should be providing, he does the impulsive thing: darting forward, Lam shoves at his Pokémon and then tucks into a roll as momentum catches him—hoping it’s enough to at least lessen the impact on Mac.
[attr="class","ooc"] [break] NOTES - egg noooooo 😭[break] - mac uses discharge on grungi (rip type effectiveness)[break] - lam using the flare of light to see if he can spot hattori[break] - we’re shook by the steelix, but lam tries to push his buddy out of the way of the dig impact[break] - we gotta find egg fr!!!
