After a quick stretch, the Dragonite crouches down, allowing the couple and their spawn to board, a few flaps of its wings floating them into the sky.

With Kim taking the rear, he hold Najwa close as she holds Lira. The turbulence was light if at all present yet Kim’s protectiveness took over the trust that he had in the Dragonite and its abilities.

“Let me know if you see anything. From here I can see a lot of resources, but they all look kinda one sided.”

He hums, chin resting over Najwa’s shoulder, head lying over onto hers.

“If it comes to it we can do some terraforming but… that might take a little time.”

“What do you think?”

Amber eyes light up as his hands claps together, the idea Kaida presented, whether it was a joke or otherwise, was a fantastic one all in all.

“Excellent idea! Alright everyone, lets see who can go the longest without talking. I’ll directly send $500 to the account of whoever wins. Ready GO!”

Within seconds of issuing the challenge, Kim question aloud.

“Wait if I win does that mean I get $500?”

A question rendered moot with him immediately being removed from the game.

The moment the noodle made contact, Kim fell silent, his lips pursing as he observed Fernando; what he could only describe as a laugh echoing from the mans mouth.

“That is the worst laugh I’ve ever heard, holy shit.”

The councilman releases the noodles and goes for his phone, pulling it out and opening the camera.

“Hold still.”

Putting an arm around FERNANDO SILPH , Kim strikes a peace sign with his free hand as he snaps a selfie with the both of them.

“Perfect.”

Kim says, releasing his hold as he pulls away from the man, forgetting the noodles on the Silph’s face. Until they were launched his way, Kim forced to catch the ball with his free hand, circling it with his eyes as he put away his phone.

“I could probably sell this off to some Fern fans for a couple bucks.”

He slaps the ball onto the table as he nears his seat, posting the picture onto his twitter.

Upon hearing the discussions Kim tilted his head up slightly, sighing as he put the phone away.

“Damn, y’all really know how to bring the fun to a dinner party huh?”

There is not the slightest hint of subtlety in his voice when speaking.

FERNANDO SILPH, Laurence Anderson, and 4 more like this

Kim gives a general wave to the room as he awaits his turn to indulge in a serving. Giving more than half a mind of attention to both cait alfric and Stormy Silph in his greetings- though he would not linger on either of them too long. Instead, his attention focuses on MATIAS SILPH , Kim giving a sort of scoff at the mere question: if he had ever been here.

But before he could even answer, the man had already began groovin’, the councilman’s mouth gaping ever so slightly in surprise- amusement soon spreading across his features.

“Oooooooh, Ooh killem, Ooh killem, Oooooooooh~”

“I’ve only done it once before… hold up.”

He takes a moment to grab the noodles, adjusting his grip, and once a moment passes, he beings twirling, his movements oozing grace as he moves about the table.

Eventually he nears FERNANDO SILPH , and his movements falter.

“Oh shit.”

The struggle that comes with being a councilman is neverending, and with the gradual absence of other councilmembers, it seems that the bulk was to fall onto Kim’s head.

Fantastic.

While Kim would be more than happy to acquire the recounts of those that had been apart of the Sootopolis incident first hand, the fires that continued to burn were in need of a fireman, he had no time to sit and chat, immediate and more urgent matters in need of attention.

So he sent an envoy in his place: a Gothorita.

The pokemon was previously dropped off in front of the councilman’s Verdanturf residence, allowing for the pokemon to properly enjoy a light stroll through the town she called home before she had arrived to the set location; a nod and hello given to the Celesteela as she walked through the door, gently closing it behind herself.

“I hope I’m not too late.”

A gentle voice hums through the minds of those present.

“I am here on behalf of Councilman Cole and will be recording this meeting for brevity’s sake when reiterating to said party. Thank you for having me.”

She gives a curtsey before finding a seat.

“I am able to recount the councilman’s perspective perfectly, so please do not be concerned with his absence.”

Lateness is only to be expected when Kim is invited to a formal gathering, the councilman stepping in with a groove in his step as he held half of a fuckhuge watmel berry, a black lace shirt and blue jeans making up his ensemble.

Nearing their table, the man places the berry down on the first clear surface he can spot, the fruity concoction within smelling absolutely divine to any that had caught a whiff.

Once it had been placed, Kim began to crip walk around the table.

He plants a half kiss on cait alfric ’s cheek before he continues to his seat, pulling out the chair and planting himself down, pointing at the watmel.

“That has soju in it. Got it from a place called Handam BBQ a bit away from here. Had about two glasses of them before I got here and got a second one on standby if we finish this one and y’all want more.”

He gives a gaze around before standing once more, moving over to pour himself a serving from the hotpot.

“Y’all gonna eat or we just gonna let ‘nandy’s money go to waste?”

To Kim, he was always in the spotlight, be it by force or otherwise; for all eyes to fall on him was a given, and he relished every minute of it. So when the Starmie’s SPOTLIGHT had shown upon him, it was given no credence, the councilman taking it as little more than a glimmer in his eyes.

But flashbacks of the passing interaction were forced into his mind as attacks came hurling his way, the councilman giving a light huff as he opened a hoop nearby, the Swampert clawing at the ground to stop its momentum and rushing back to its trainer on all fours.

With his index and middle finger pressed to his earpiece, Kim gave a command, turning his back as the attacks launched his way.

“Attention all league personnelle-”

The bright flash of attacks smashed into the PROTECTed back of the mega Swampert, the pokemon hunching over the councilman and taking the full brunt of the attacks as jagged stones crumbled to the ground.

“This is Councilman Cole speaking. With the dying down of the current chaos I ask all that remain within Sootopolis' borders to once more prioritize the safety and evacuation of any and all civilians that remain within the city. Disengage any hostile forces unless they directly present a threat in your given duties. Backup will be arriving as soon as possible, so for the moment, continue to secure and protect.”

After returning the Pheromosa, another hoop opens before him, Kim switching to private comms as he steps through to meet with his Torterra, the Swampert following after; huddling together with the Torterra cozily.

“That goes double for avatars, kyle lopez , Katherine Fairburne , Laurence Anderson : I saw your ass, get back here, and… oh shit. Anyone got eyes on Balder Schwartz ?”

Silence is the option Kim took, eyeing Killian with a placid expression, content in his patience as more and more cracks began to show- spouts of water seeping into the floor Kim stood upon.

Eventually, Kim’s patience plays out, the man stepping through his hoop and the oddness of their situation eventually righting itself.

And then Kyle says some and does some shit, the spire quaking as he does.

“kyle lopez , holy shit. I love you but holy shit.”

The shard, ever quaking in his hold, is dropped to the floor- Kim quickly closing the previous hoop and opening another to the outside of the spire where he had previously been.

And as he arrives, Balder Schwartz is swiped away, his Swampert left with his possessions.

“...Alright… One thing at a time.”

Kim nears the Swampert, grabbing hold of the shard and tossing it into the hoop before it closes completely.

Returning the Kirlia, Kim releases his own Swampert, the pokemon eyeing Balder’s with interests- Pheromosa returns to his side, flicking off droplets of water as it landed near. After a few seconds, she returns his shades, Kim sliding them on giddily.

“Minnow. Elka.” Kim calls with a clap of his hands, eyeing the spire Kyle so suddenly started destroying. “Let’s do a little renovating.”

A glow at his chest and the Swampert evolves to its mega, a slew of jagged rocks armoring its body as it curled into a ball, a hoop formed above the two and then below, both pokemon becoming trapped in a continuous loop as they fell endlessly for a few seconds.

With enough velocity, Kim opens another hoop above (or below) the spiral, the two pokemon coming crashing down through the building, smashing the two shards that remain in the process.

Meanwhile, the Torterra gives a light huff, watching things unfold from a distance as he assist in evacuating noah faber with help from John Sullivan .

There is a visible struggle as he holds back tears, teeth nibbling into his closed fist as he looks to this girls.

“I try.” He says with a faint breath, an exaggeration of his struggle more than anything.

“How about we take Coffee? She’s less intimidating than your Aerodactyl, and I don’t want those guys getting riled up over seeing it.”

Kim points a thumb over to the monkies; the Gothorita slowly moving over to commune with the groups. After, he taps the ball to his side, a Dragonite released and extending its arms and wings in a stretch- scratching its belly groggily.

“Mmmm, no. This library is for card holding individuals only, and I’m afraid your average library card just won’t do."

Kim forces a smile, eyes slipping between the man and his pokemon, expression shifting to neutral as the Starmie shattered glass and the man grabbed hold of whatever he had. Little care was shown towards his actions, a sigh given instead as Kim adjusts his position, the Kirlia now sitting on his shoulders for a clearer view of the opposition.

“Y’know… I was of the mindset that this place could be saved; maybe I don’t get rid of something this important to Hoenn in the current age. But now that I think of it, why bother if y’all might just try this shit again. Give an inch and people will take a mile.”

His hand hovers over the shallows- the purple hue of PSYCHIC waving over the surface of the water, and with a flick of his wrist it splashes towards Killian, attempting to pull the Starmie with it. Immediately following, the Kirlia releases a THUNDERBOLT, the electric current traveling along with the aquatic one in an attempt to stun if not fake out Killian.

“That’s why I’m gonna just yeet this bitch.” He says, beginning to reach for the shard.

Until the fucking building rumbles from the spout of water around them. What the fuck is going on?

“What the fuck is going on?!”

As water splashes about, Kim’s index traces a small hoop midair, the man himself looking through to see the situation from a further point of view. Holy shit.

“Holy shit.” The smaller hoop closes and is replaced with a bigger one that appears behind Killian.

“Change of plans. Get the fuck out of here before you actually drown.”

The hoop opens to the Torterra and other evacuees; the groups from John Sullivan ’s coordinates coagulated within those of Kim’s; thanks to prior hoop hopping.

A hand moves to his earpiece. “John Sullivan I don’t know your status but the group is ready whenever you’re ready to do your thing.”

His hand falls to his side after his relay, eyeing Killian Decker , a crack appears underfoot, water seeping through.

“You gotta go, man.”

The councilman stands patiently as more cracks begin to form along the spires walls, preparing to shard it away once Killian is cleared out.

“Thanks for the tip, Dougie.” He says in response to John Sullivan ’s relay.

Within the remaining seconds of clearing citizens of the battlefield, Kim slips back towards the scene, Hoopa holes instantly filled with the pixie dust of a certain someone’s weezing.

Sucking his teeth, Kim waves the smoke away from his face as the hole is dispersed.

“Kim Cole-Essam, don’t smoke mid.” He mutters out, the Kirlia hopping back towards her trainer, playfully ducking under the arch his legs and climbing onto his back.

With his first priority semi-completed, Kim begins to act in retaliation to the opposing forces, only to be stopped by the shifting of levels once more; the councilman looking around to see his Torterra no longer occupying the location it had previously been seen.

“Oh fuck... Duane?” Kim is quick to look around in search of the turtle, the Kirlia’s legs swinging in unison with his turns as Kim completely ignores the battle waging on before him.

“... I’m sure he’s fine.” He says in reassurance to the Kirlia, the pokemon nodding in agreement as Kim turns back towards the spire, eyeing the flipped structure with a confused expression.

“Wha...?” Is whispered under breath before he looks back to those present; counting briefly before sighing gently.

“Balder Schwartz , John Sullivan , keep doin’ what y’all are doin’, I’ll be back.”

(Pokkenger is a null-element in the eyes of the councilman)

A clap of his hands and his third pokemon reveals itself with a BOUNCE, landing on their level with a flick of its antenna, the Pheromosa previously waiting within the city for its moment to appear. Upon its landing Kim waves the beast over closer to himself, bestowing his heart shaped sunglasses onto the Pheromosa then cupping its slim face in both hands.

“Run they pockets, Elka.”

With that, the Kirlia’s eyes glow, teleporting Kim into the spire, the man instantly becoming submerged in the flooding temple. There is second of processing before he opens a hoop on the nearest wall, the room beginning to drain as he grabs hold of the sturdiest thing he can.

Upon the water coming to a non-life threatening level, Kim looks to the other man present, Killian Decker .

"The fuck- do you think you're doin' here- dumbass?" He coughs out, outreaching his hand towards the man, ready to retaliate with a PSYCHIC in case he decides to attack.

“Thank you Nawwy.”

Kim says with a pleased grin, happy to receive a compliment from his beloved.

Najwa’s words are relayed to the monkeys in an extremely dumbed down way, the Gothorita motioning with its arms as her words are transferred over telepathically.

A few remain confused but for the most part they are understanding, the leaders each nodding in understanding.

“How about we fly then? We might not be able to see too much from overhead with the foliage and all but at least we can spot notable locations. Set a boundary where resources are even and create a split from there.”

As attacks launch about, a few aimed his way, Kim is quick to act: ignoring most all of them outright.

The Lickilicky is returned and he takes a step back, allowing the Kommo-o to shadowbox to its heart's content. There's a lot of lights and a lot of shouts that follow that, really paralleling the whole reality shifting event that unfolded not even 10 mins ago that left them in the weird state that they were in at present.

So much light; Kim squints in its presence, wishing he had brought his sunglass- oh wait. He reaches into a small portal hole, digging around a bit before he pulls out a pair of heart shaped sunglasses and pops them on, surveying the rabble around himself.

“As fun as the prospect of comparing dicks with you all would be, I have my priorities. As I said, if you remain you are considered a threat; an immediate one with all the citizens present. Therefore, I will do what I must to protect them.”

“Even if they’re dumb enough to fall in line with y’all.” A thought better left unsaid.

Releasing a Kirlia, Kim snaps his fingers, a HYPERSPACE HOLE appearing under his feet and he falls through, the Kirlia only adding to the bright lights with a DAZZLING GLEAM in an attempt to stifle or stun those opposing her; while Kim began swiping up civilians, dragging them through underfoot portals and placing them in the care of the Torterra.

Dealing with the spire comes last in his list of priorities, and besides, those other league folks got it handed.

Amidst shifting lands the Torterra stays steadfast, hustling to gather the citizens in its care into one spot before it stomps the ground and releases a roar: an earthly WIDE GUARD forming around the citizens as debris fell and the grounds settled.

Meanwhile, Kim rests over onto the Lickilicky’s head, catching his balance while angling himself in a relaxed position; the pokemons pink tuft squishing down along with its head.

After everything had settled, Kim’s eyes surveyed the land around, looking up for a brief moment, then back down; his eyes landing on the area he had just been occupying prior to his arrival at the spire. He blinks a few times before his eyes lock with his Torterra’s, a sense of confusion present on both of their faces.

“That’s not good…” The councilman mutters before standing up to his full height once again, smoothing out his clothes.

In utter fascination with seeing another of its kind, the Lickilicky pays no mind to its trainer using it as a chest level leaning surface, instead- with its newfound freedom- it tugs on Kim’s sleeve pointing towards the doppelganger.

Kim nods in amusement with a cheerful smile on his lips while Knock-me-Down waves eagerly to the pudgy pokemon counter side.

“If you’re here to help, then do me a couple things: get the civilians present to safety and while you’re at it evacuate the immediate premises. I can do enough protecting to make up for you and all the others that decided to join your mix.”

He spins his index in a circle to the side of them: a portal forming where he pointed while, another opens where the Torterra keeps the already rescued civilians.

“Go through there and you’ll be safe. Stay here and you’ll be considered a threat. Your choice.”

A soft smile accompanies his forward words, arms moving to rest behind his back: at ease.
