Pokemon, the Olene Island Challenge! [PG16 -IC - Started/Always Accepting via OOC]

[Brinolovania]

S looked down at the Master Ball. [b]"Well, at least he succeeded at protecting the Regi group from us. Assuming that was his goal, which it may well have been. Anyway..." [/b]He stuck the Master Ball into his pouch. [b]"I think I'll save you for emergency situations...I doubt you'll be too excited about listening to my commands after that battle." [/b][i]"Although, you may be more willing to listen once you find out what I'm eventually gonna use you for...the Lord of Thunder will be a great ally to have when I finally take down Genesis. Along with whatever other Legendaries I manage to find...I'm sure more will come." [/i]He chuckled a little. [i]"Whatever happens, X will probably regret letting me hold on to this." [/i]Then he accelerated his motorcycle, and turned towards Genesis HQ.

[AkatsukiPride!]

Archer looked around, wondering what he would do next. "So," he asked, "Where to? Didn't we say that we'd head to the West Castle and Argen City?" Absol and Trapinch nodded. [b][color=#ff8c00]Ooh! Can I come? [/color][/b]Archer looked to Victini, who was still floating next to him. "Uh, sure, why not? You guys 'k with that?" Trapinch made a barking sound, followed by a genuine bark of approval from Absol. "Seems like there in. Either way, with Genesis running around, you'll need protection, and I need help. So this is a start of a mutually beneficial friendship." Victini floated above Archer and landed on his head.[b][color=#ff8c00]Thanks! With the prince of victory at your side, you can't lose! But remember, you never [i]caught [/i]me. [/color][/b]​Archer laughed. "Right. So, lets find ourselves traveling partners. Maybe...that Caldus kid who fought the biker-guy? Or Leon and Yamanda? Even though they have their own problems..." Archer stood around for a while, and was suddenly compelled to have a flashback.

FLASHBACK

6 years ago, to the day...
A ten year old Archer and a young Treeko were running about in Fortree City, Hoenn. Archer had received Treeko only a day before, but they were best friends. "C'mon, Treeko! We have training to do!" Treeko followed Archer up a tree into a poorly-hidden yet well crafted tree house, where Treeko began to attack a small punching bag. A man accompanied by Absol walked out of a small house and looked up at Archer. "Archer, its time for dinner!" "Ok dad! Treeko, c'mon!" Archer jumped down, followed by Treeko, and walked into the house. He was eyed by Absol as he walked in, and then Absol eyed Treeko. "Sol..."

3 years ago...
Archer and a Sceptile were in the midst of a battle with Wallace, the eight gym leader of Hoenn. "Milotic, attack Sceptile with Hydro Pump!" As Wallace yelled the command, Milotic unleashed a powerful blast of water at Sceptile. "Detect!" Archer yelled at Sceptile, and his eyes began to glow blue. The stream came flying at Sceptile, and he did the matrix, evading the attack. At the same time, Milotic jumped foreword and attacked Sceptile with Aqua Tail. Sceptile again dodged the attack with the power of Detect. "Sceptile, Rock Tomb!" Sceptile raised its arms, and a flurry of rocks smashed into Milotic, burying it. "Now finish this with Solar Beam!" Sceptile raised its head and opened up his mouth, charging a ball of pure light. He then aimed at the tomb, and let loose a devastating blast of solar energy. It blew the tomb apart, and Milotic fell unconscious, rendering Archer as the winner. From the stands, Edward Cambell, Archer's father, looked over at Absol next to him. "He's grown, wouldn't you say, Soldier?" Absol nodded slightly.

2 years ago...
Archer was now facing off against Steven Stone, the Hoenn Champion. "Meteor Mash," Steven said, and with that command, his Metagross jumped forward at Archer's Zangoose, and struck it with a glowing claw. Zangoose fell down, unable to battle, and Archer returned him. "Sceptile," he said, "Please, win this for me." Sceptile, who was standing next to him. Stepped forward to battle Metagross. Sceptile was, however, already badly hurt. He was barely hanging on. "Rock Tomb," Archer muttered. Rocks flew at Metagross, but Steven raised an arm and said, "Psychic," resulting in Metagross telepathically launching them back at Sceptile. They hammered him, and he began to stagger. "And now, Hyper Beam." Metagross launched a powerful orange blast at Sceptile. The blast exploded, and Sceptile fell down. "Return," Archer returned Sceptile to his pokeball. "Your not bad at all, kid. Don't get your hopes down. If you made it this far, then you'll probably beat me next time around. For now, why not try the Battle Frontier?" Steven said. Archer nodded silently and walked away. His father and Absol waited for him at the door. "Don't worry, son." His dad said. "Lets go, and find you another challenge." Archer smiled lightly, and Absol looked up at him. "Sol..." he muttered, sympathetically.

END OF FLASHBACK

Back at the shrine, the frozen Regirock made a whimpering sound, wondering if someone would free him. "Rock..."

[XvegetaX]

Reggie had been walking for hours before he arrived at the place he had seen the distortion. He noticed a shrine about 30 ft. in front of him. He checked the map that he had in his backpack. " So this is where the legendary Celebi lives? seems a little small but then again it is a small pokemon." Reggie spoke to his two pokemon. [color=#008000]"[b] [i]Hey who are you calling small short stack![/i][/b]" [/color]" Who said that!" Reggie spoke looking at his surroundings. When he noticed something standing on the shrine. A small green figure with a formation of a folded rose for a head. Celebi. [color=#008000]"[b][i] What? you've never seen a talking plant! Oh well now that i think about it, it is a little akward. thats not the point though. What I'm wondering is why your on my doorstep.[/i][/b]"[/color] Celebi said looking at the young kid in shock. "your....your...... your Celebi! the mythical pokemon! oh man it's been my dream to see a LEGENDARY!!!!!!! [color=#008000]" [b][i]So whats it to ya, you know there is like fifteen of us ya know. And its not like i haven't seen ya before." [/i][/b][/color]Celebi said in a sarcastic tone. " Wait you know me? how?" reggie spoke in a confused sounding voice. [color=#008000]"[b][i] Kid your from Johto, my region. Your the only reason i came here. Hey I'll see you in a few days" [/i][/b][/color]And like that celebi made a warp in the sky and disapeared.

[Pichu]

K grabbed V by the neck. "Don't you dare mess with those kids!" K yelled. "You even speak about them again, I'll kill you and your Pokemon!" K yelled. She pushed V back. "Sorry." K muttered. "It's a long story. I'll tell you back at base, if you have the time, of course." K pulled out her Pokephone and tapped something into it. "Tell Xerxes I'm going back to the base early. I've captured Regice and I just need to leave this area." K pressed her lips against V's cheek and walked into the forest. A large pink jet appeared from the sky and lowered into the forest. In less than five minutes, it shot back into the air.

---

"I lived with my dad, er, well by myself. He was always bringing home whores. To get away from it all, I left for Olene. I'm glad I did too. I wouldn't have met you." Yamada blushed as she explained this to Leon. She continued walking but stopped as she saw Aaron. "Oh, hi, Aaron." Yamada muttered, wiping tears from her cheek. "Well, yes. It has been a crazy two days. We've seen many legends and..." Yamada broke off. "And my Charmander died." Yamada's eyes filled with tears again. "B-But Mew! Mew brought him back!" Yamada said. She wiped more tears from her face. Yamada looked at the Lapras. "We need to get to the West Castle and quickly! Charmander might die again!"

[ListenToLife]

"Woah, K has feelings." V muttered, the smile wiped off his face, replaced with a cocky scowl. "Who knew she could be this weak. I mean, she even apologized." He laughed and turned back into the forest, ignoring the fact he should debrief with X first. Water would make it alright. Besides, V had some thinking to do. "She even thought she could kill me or my pokémon! That's rich." He chuckled, walking deep into the forest, pokémon scattering in his wake. He presumed it was the look on his face. He'd seen it in a puddle a few seconds ago.

And he had seen a daemon staring back. (A pretty handsome daemon, by his standards)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron nodded, looking at the pokéball where the injured charmander lay, probably in a comatose state. "There's a river at that end of the Lake that leads west. It'll probably get us close to the castle." Aaron stated, pointing towards an opening in the lake. It flowed out of the lake, so it was quite low at the moment, but Lapras could swim in it. "It seems to flow away from this lake, so we'd get to the Castle quite quick. Climb aboard Lapras, she doesn't mind." Aaron gestured towards Lapras at this point, recieving a glare from the pleisiosaur. He flashed an apologetic smile, before looking back at the trainers.

[Durandamon]

While Yamada spoke, Leon also blushed, slightly - "I'm really glad I met you too, Yamada." - Leon then held Yamada, as she cried over Charmander's "death"- "It's okay, nothing will happen to him now, we'll get to the castle in no time." - while walking toward the lake, Leon walked a bit ahead with Aaron, trying to get near him - "H-Hey man. Aaron, right? I didn't want to mention this in front of Yamada, I'm kinda ashamed to ask you but...you are from Johto, right? You are a champion back there. I'm from Kanto, and...well, your fame spread quickly there too. I just say because...I want you to help me." - Leon tried to whisped at Aaron, but he was pretty sure Yamada was listening - "If you can...I want you to train me, someday. I want to become as good a trainer as a champion; It took me two entire years to beat the 8 Kanto Gyms, how pathetic is that? And I couldn't even win at Indigo Plateau...so, could you help me? Please." - he offered a handshake to Aaron as he mounted Lapras, and Leon did the same, then offered his other hand to help Yamada get on board.

[Pichu]

Yamada heard all of what Leon said to Aaron. She sighed and carefully climbed onto the Lapras, avoiding the water since the flood had traumized Yamada. She climbed on behind Leon, wrapping her arms around his waist.

K was in her lab, with three large, glass containers before. One held Latias, another Latios, and the third Regice. All three Legendary Pokemon were knocked out and had many wires stuck to them. K was typing on a computer. "Now to extract the DNA from Regice." she said to herself. She pressed a button on the large keyboard and Regice's container lit up. Regice was suddenly awoken and cried in agony. After several minutes, the glowing stopped and Regice fainted again, falling to the floor of it's container. K walked up to the containers and collected a test tube from each. Each test tube contained the DNA from the three Pokemon. K placed them on a rack and put the rack in a safe. K then turned and walked to the other side of the room, where eight more containers stood. Each container held K's powerful Pokemon, Raichu, Jigglypuff, Clefable, Jynx, Blissey, Wobbufet, Roserade, and Mr Mime. K placed a hand on Raichu's container. Unlike the legendaries, each of K's Pokemon were awake, but they were still wired up. K pressed a button on the side of each container, causing each one to glow and cause great pain to her Pokemon. After several more minutes, each container stopped glowing and eight test tubes appeared, each with the DNA of K's Pokemon inside. K placed these with the other three and then returned all of her Pokemon. She placed the eight Pokeballs on a tray and handed it to a grunt. "Take these to the Genesis Pokemon Center downstairs. I want all eight back within an hour or I'll have your head on a platter." K ordered. The grunt gulped and rushed away.

[Piercer of the Heavens]

"Wait for me guys" Allegretto said as he saw Edward and Aaron getting on lapras. "You guys better not leave without me. It isn't my fault that I was knocked unconcious by an attack." Allegretto was refering to the chaos that had just happened. An attack sent a piece of wood straight to Allegretto's head knocking him unconscious. The only reason he woke up is because his Buneary was there. It noticed that Aaron and Edward were leaving. "Sorry about not being of much help, but I was tired from the run to the shrine. So I didn't have time to react to the wood that hit me." He then noticed that Lapras was already carrying four passengers. "Crap, how is this going to work. I don't think I can fit with you guys." Allegretto then had an idea face on. "You guys think we can make a quick raft using a tree around here. Then we tie it to lapras or other water pokemon that we may have?"

[Altαir]

Brandon examined the shrine with great interest. A wonderous development in tribute to the three Regis, the shrine looked daunting and impressive, while ancient and silent. He could not tell what caused the thunderbolt he saw before, as he saw nothing which could initiate such great force. The Regis were articles of great interest for Brandon, they held great symbolic importance in the old texts, but he could not remember what it was. He looked about for old writing and anything prominent and important. Had Brandon not taken this challenge, he would've been an archeologist - he already studied some preliminary stuff.

He saw a semi-lake and decided to let out Hydra, his Magikarp, for a little swim. He could hear some talking in the distance, and decided to walk over.

[Pichu]

[b]"X, hun![/b]
[b]I decided to leave the shrine early. A girl's Charmander was killed in the shrine, and I couldn't stay there. You remember when I told you about my dear Furret. I've captured Regice and extracted it's DNA for myself. Also, a flood broke out in the shrine, and I saw Mew and Mewtwo. I already have Mewtwo's DNA but a Mew would seal the deal! Anyways, the Mewtwo saved me. I dunno if he remembers me from my childhood. I'm also still waiting for that reward you promised. I'll be in your lair, in your favorite bunny suit, of course. See you when you return, X.[/b]
[b]-Kisses, K"[/b]

With that message, K put on X's favorite bunny suit and skipped to X's sleeping quarters. She used her key that opened any door (that she stole from W's room) to open this door. Once inside, she found X's bed and rested on it, turning on the television. K lost herself deep in thought and thought back to when she first saw Mewtwo. She remembered Mewtwo stirring around in the large test tube where it was contained. Then she suddenly remembered a voice. Yes. A voice that spoke to her while her father was speaking.
"Help Mew. Destroy Rocket."
K blinked several times and then continued watching the T.V, trying to get her mind off of the voice.

[AkatsukiPride!]

W walked into his lab in the West Wing. On his way there, he walked passed K in a bunny suit. "Don't wanna know what that's about..." he mumbled. He held the Griseous Orb tightly. When he got to his lab, he placed it down on a table. He then noticed and empty space where his open-every-door-master-key was supposed to be. He sighed. "K..." he said, under his breath. "You [i]whore.[/i]" He walked over to the tube containing DX-II, and pulled a vial containing more of Deoxys's DNA and inserted it into the blob, which then grew. AS it did, strange, alienotic yellow designs appeared on the blob. "Closer every day." He then inserted a vial of Regirock DNA into it, followed by DNA of some Fire-Type pokemon he found and Rotom's DNA. He then walked over to his work table and confronted the unconscious Eevee. He made sure his door was locked tightly, and pulled out multiple tools and syringes, filled with different DNA. "Hopefully, I wont be intruded this time."

[i]Deoxys Eevee Hybrid[/i]

[i]For a while now, I've been curious to what makes Eevees "tick." Their DNA is so unique.Their DNA changes depending on the slightest change in their environment. With Deoxys's changeable DNA, I hope that I can create a hybrid Eevee that can change into its different forms at will, and then to Attack, Defense, and Speed forms of that form. So far, my experiments have unlocked no forms of Eevee, but I haven't had enough time to work. I will begin to work on unlocking Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon DNA and the Speed, Attack, and Defense forms of them. I will then move on to Espeon and Umbreon later, and eventually onto Leafeon and Glaceon. And when I'm done with that, Eevee's DNA will be applied to DX-II so he may unlock the ability to change types along with his multitude of forms and create new forms to adapt to unique situations. When that is all done, Castform DNA will be applied to my experiments to further allow transformation abilities.[/i]

[i]DX-II[/i]

[i]I have recently added Regirock, Rotom, and Fire-Type DNA to DX-II. Eevee's DNA will be applied next, and then DNA of a Castform. The Griseous Orb was obtained by me today, so Giratina's DNA is closer to me than ever.[/i]

[i]Giratina[/i]

[i]On that note, I still have not discovered a way to open a door to the Reverse World. I hope energizing the [/i][i]Griseous Orb with the power of Ghost and Dark-type attacks will aid in that. [/i]

[i]DXSI-Series[/i]

[i]The probability of DXSI-Series pokemon has increased greatly! The obtainment of all this new DNA will make it easy enough. No one knows of this experiment yet, not even Xerxes. The first DXSI pokemon still eludes me, as I can't find the perfect pokemon to test it one. One of the Eevees may do, though.[/i]

[i]Froslass[/i]

[i]Her condition has increased. She seems healthier now. I plan on applying Rotom's DNA soon. Then she will be more powerful than ever, and ever more healthy since my tragic mistake by testing my first DNA-splicing experiment on her...[/i]

[i]General Condition[/i]

[i]All in all, the condition of my research and Team Genesis as a whole is better than it has been in ages.[/i]

[i]Wolfram T. Stein[/i]

[Durandamon]

"♥K♥
A girl's Charmander? Isn't that girl one of those horny trainers from the Shrine, by any chance? I remember the Furret incident well. That flood caught me too, but fortunately Honchkrow flew me out just in time, remind me to get a Water Pokemon in the near future.
Did you say...Bunny?
....
....
....
Give me ten minutes,
X"

As soon as X got the mail, he decided it was time to leave for good. He ordered the teams to split up and return to HQ, as he got on his personal helicopter, and flew to Genesis HQ as well.
(...)
X arrived twenty minutes later and ran to his chamber. He noticed his door was open, and prepared himself for the best. As he opened the door, he was greeted by K in a playboy bunny suit, with a white cotton tail and matching ears. - "I see you've...kept your promise...well..." - X jumped to bed, and held K under him, kissing her deeply - "It's time for your reward, my dear."
(...)

----------

"A raft?" - before Lapras started moving, another person walked by; Leon recognized him as one of the trainers from the ship - "Sure, give me a second. I'm Leon, by the way. Where is it..." - Leon started checking his backpack, until he found one of his Pokeballs, he opened it, and released his Cubone on land. - "Okay Dino, I want you to use Bonemerang on those four trees over there." - Leon pointed to a spot full of trees, and Cubone threw his bone at one tree, making it bounce around the others, knocking them down - "Is that enough wood? I don't know how we are gonna keep it together, though..." - Leon opened the Pokeball again, and a red beam saved Cubone inside it.

[Asriel Dreemurr]

"They're headed to West Castle." He said as he turned his gaze out towards the desert, barely able to pick up the sound of wings high above the clouds. He started walking, his back to the lake and the group that had begun to be his friends. In the meantime, he let Ralts down to walk alongside him as she was accustomed to doing. "As for me, I'm heading out into the desert. There's a Pokemon I think I need to find." With that he continued on his way towards the burning sands, an unfamiliar look of driven intensity upon his face.

The winds were already blowing intensely as he reached the first dune, but nothing like they did back in his home region. Thankfully Ralts had grown up in Orre as well, or she would have been carried aloft and away by the winds. It took the pair of them a minute to mount the first dune and gaze out across the sea of sand. Far in the distance, Edward thought he could see the faintest glimmer of a white shape near a large stone outcropping in the distance. Steeling himself, he took hold of his companion's hand and began to cross the sands on foot.

[Altαir]

Brandon had been following Edward from a distance since the lake, attempting to catch up, and say hello. He didn't really see the others but he spotted Edward, and was glad to finally see some other human being since entering the desert. However, the man seemed determined to go somewhere, so Brandon wasn't really able to catch up in time.

Eventually Brandon hollered, "Hey, hey!" and began jogging a bit to catch up.

[ListenToLife]

Aaron looked up at the rain as it started to stop, the effects of Lapras' Rain Dance wearing off. He sighed and looked down at the surface of the lake, his face in an unusually serious face. "Well, I guess I couldn't hide it for long. I thought no-one recognised me, and I was actually rather happy. At least you aren't huge fans though. They get annoying." He stated, looking towards Leon, then at the other members of the crew. He turned back to Leon, thinking about his request. "Sure, I could train you. But dont think of yourself as pathetic. It took me at least 4 years to finish the Johto League, and another 2 or 3 to complete Kanto. I do a lot of sight-seeing, y'see." He chuckled, before sighing and looking towards Al, who was suggesting they make a raft.
"Lapras can always freeze them together. The Ice from her Ice Beam lasts for a while." He stated, followed by Lapras turning her head. "You three can ride on the raft, I'll stay on Lapras."

[Pichu]

"Oh, Xerxes!" K yelled as X walked in. She was kissed by him and then K pulled away. She then went to work.

---

Yamada continued sitting on Lapras. "We're not gonna be able to make it anywhere if you lazy a*sholes keep stalling!" Yamada yelled. She released her Lillipup, who sat on Yamada's lap. "At least I have you to keep me company." she said to Lillipup in a claming voice. She stroked her head slowly and the Pokemon yawned slightly. Yamada giggled. "Is someone getting sleepy?" she asked. Lillipup yawned again and closed her eyes, falling to sleep.

---

After K and X's... joyride, K left to her lab. She was now dressed in a hot pink lab coat with lab goggles similar to her pink sunglasses. Her Raichu stood next to her. K now had test tubes containing the DNA of Raichu, Jigglypuff, Clefable, Jynx, Blissey, Wobbufet, Roserade, Mr Mime, Latias, Latios, Regice, and Mewtwo. She turned to one Genesis professor. "Get me an Eevee. Now." K ordered. The professor nodded and got a Pokemon from a small box full of Pokeballs. K released the Eevee, who whimpered. K laughed and took a large seren from her lab coat pocket. She filled it will Raichu's DNA and injected it into the Eevee. The Eevee whimpered even more. K picked it up and placed it in one of the large test tubes where she extracted DNA from her Pokemon. "Keep an eye on this one." K ordered.

[i]Raichu[/i]
[i]Raichu has been doing very well since the injection of the Thunderstone. His attacks have not been shown to be stronger by any means, but his DNA seems to sparkle now. I'll keep a closer eye on him. I must know if these stones do anything to a Pokemon that has evolved from it.[/i]

[i]Mewtwo[/i]
[i]After countless years of searching, I finally encountered Mewtwo again. It's DNA is extremely unstable, so added it to 3M might cause the entire thing to explode. Mewtwo also saved me from a flood. Guess it really does remember me.[/i]

[i]3M[/i]
[i]The Third Mutant project has been going quite good. Better then I expected. The DNA from Latias, Latios, Regice, Jigglypuff, Blissey, Clefable, Jynx, Wobbufet, Mr Mime, and Roserade have been added to the Eevee DNA I stole from W's lab. I'll record more when some more happens.[/i]

[i]Genesis[/i]
[i]Things have been very dense since Xerxes captured Darkrai, the Nightmare Pokemon. Xerxes ordered us to capture all Legendary Pokemon we came across, which I've failed since I encounter Mew and Mewtwo. But I have capture the Eon Duo and Regice for Genesis. [/i]

[i]Rocket[/i]
[i]Team Rocket's whereabouts are still unknown. I've heard nothing since father told me Team Rocket was moving their operations from Kanto to Olene. I thought he learned when he failed in Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Unova. Plus he never truely did anything in Kanto. He should move along Orre. Cipher would teach him a lesson. I've watched for Rocket members everywhere, but nothing. I must find father. I must revenge Furret![/i]

[XvegetaX]

" What the heck just happended?" Reggie screamed and continued, " Well i guess since Celebi said it would see me in a few days i should try to get some training in before we leave. Ok psyduck munchlax time for some special training!" It took the team a few minutes to set some barracades up, along with a few targets. " Ok psyduck use confusion on Munchlax and Munchlax use tackle to hit the barracade!" Reggie told his pokemon. it took them about twenty tries but they eventually succeded. "Ok now that we have a combo move down lets get heading off guys." Reggie spoke to his companions. They floated for a few minutes thanks to psyduck, but then walked for about 30 minutes. When suddenly a man and a woman in goofy outfits walked up to him. " Hey kid what are you doing walking in the presence of us!" the woman said to Reggie. " I have as much rights to walk here as you two clowns do!" Reggie said with an attitude. " Well then i guess we'll havee to make you leave. We are members of team Genesis! And when we win we shall take all your pokemon!" they both yelled to him. " Ok but your not winning that easily!"

[Asriel Dreemurr]

"Hey, Hey" came the sound of a voice from behind Edward, causing him to turn around and see that he was being followed. He didn't recognize the one following him, and as such he immediately became wary. A hand shot to the hilt of the sword upon his back and the faintest of pink glows came to light behind the hood over Ralts' eyes.

"Who are you and why were you following us?" As he spoke those words, he drew the blade and got into a readied stance to defend himself if necessary. After all, Pokemon weren't the only ones that could cause harm to each other. Meanwhile, his Ralts was actually not hiding behind his leg but rather moved out beside him and made to look as intimidating as the small creature could.

[Altαir]

"Er..." Brandon halted, then took a small step back. He's never seen a non-ceremonial sword before, and was a bit awesturck at the sight. THe then peered down to the Ralts next to the trainer. It looked cute, but it put up an aura of intimidation which Brandon found even more adorable. The two seemed to be inseperable, a pair from the heavens. It was nice to see a friendship like that.

"Hi, I'm B...Brandon..." Brandon said, trying to sound as nice as he could to a person with a blade. "Um... I saw you at the lake, and you looked... mystified. You looked like you were going somewhere really important in the desert, and I thought I felt something in the desert, so I figured we could help eachother out. I mean... if you want to..." At the time, Brandon didn't have his Swablu out, to spare her the heat of the desert.

[Piercer of the Heavens]

"Well I don't think we need the raft anymore." Allegrettos said. "With Edward leaving somewhere right now I think we can all fit on lapras. It seems to be big enough to carry our weight." Allegretto then got a pokeball and returned his Buneary. He then got closer to lapras and touch it. "Besides this lapras looks a little bigger than a usual one. If you guys managed to survive all the chaos that happened then lapras must me strong." Allegretto then turned to Aaron. "So how about it, we forget about the raft and all ride lapras?"

[ListenToLife]

"I dont know. She's big enough, but I dont know if she'd allow it. She's fussy about who and how many ride her in all but the most serious situations." Aaron explained, rubbing the neck of his Lapras. He whispered a few words in her ears, which caused her to spit water at him, but she rolled her eyes and nodded none the less.
"It seems she's happy to carry us all, as long as we dont weigh too much." He stated, looking at the entire group collectively, before looking at the river at the edge of the Lake. "I suppose if you all return your pokémon." Aaron muttered, barely audible to the other trainers.
He sighed and reminisced a bit; though he avoided the use of flashbacks. They were annoying, and everyone seemed to have them. He really hated when people disturbed a perfectly good scene with an annoying flashback.

[Piercer of the Heavens]

"Alright!" Allegretto said as soon as Aaron gave him the okay. He quickly got on lapras, getting comfirtable soon after. "Sorry about this Lapras." Allegretto said. "If I had a pokemon I could ride on I would, but sadly I only have this little ugly thing." Allegretto said letting out his shiny Feebas into the water. "As you can see, she can't really carry me."

Allegretto looked at Feebas, who seemed to have a sad expression on. "Oh don't worry, I know I hate ugly pokemon, but that doesn't mean I hate you. If that old man was right than you might even be the prettiest of all my pokemon." Allegretto started searching his backpack. "Ah, here it is." he said taking out a poffin. "Here it this, it should help your scales look more beautiful. I don't know if that will help much, but you need it." He threw it at Feebas who happily ate it. "Well you can stay out of your pokeball for now, stretch your fins."

[Asriel Dreemurr]

As Brandon explained himself, Edward and Ralts relaxed. He returned his blade to its sheath upon his back and turned about to continue walking, picking up Ralts because it was very obvious she had gotten tired.

"Well, if you wish to accompany me I won't turn you away," Edward began as he started to make his way down the side of the dune in the direction of the stone outcropping in the distance. So far as he could tell, the white Pokemon he had seen earlier had come to rest atop it for the time being. "Just do not interfere when I encounter Reshiram. Capturing that legend alone would bring my family a great deal of fame." His steps continued ever onward across the sands. For the time being he wasn't paying much attention to where he was going or what was in front of him.

Yamada nodded and returned her sleeping Lillipup. She patted Lapras's back and looked at Leon, telling him to sit in front of her. "We're on a time limit, people! I have a dying Charmander and the longer we sit here, the faster Charmander will die." Yamada yelled.

K and her Raichu walked down a large hallway. At the end of the hallway was the throne room, where X said in his spare time. K turned to a right and opened the door to V's room. She walked to a dresser and left a note and a glowing red orb. She left quickly, not bothering to close the door behind her. Raichu, however, closed the door, then chased K on all fours.

Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, stared at the nearly destroyed Trigi Shrine. His Persian stood behind him along with Team Rocket Admins Archer and Ariana. "I have a feeling there's another, er, us in Olene..." Giovanni muttered. He walked inside to see many Genesis Grunts fleeing the scene. "Team Genesis?" Giovanni scoffed. One grunt ran by muttering the words; "Miss K!" Giovanni stood up straight. "Archer! Ariana! Get 20 grunts out here right now!" Giovanni yelled. Archer and Ariana nodded and walked away.

[i]Technically the Charmander wont die faster.[/i] Aaron noted, resisting saying it outloud due to the emergency of the situation. "Riight then, if we're all aboard, we can go. Get us to the west castle Lapras." Aaron stated, pointing to the entrance to the river. Lapras nodded and, with one large lurch forward, started to move, covering the distance of the lake rather easily. As they entered the river, Aaron turned to face the others and sat down, leaning his head against the neck of Lapras and smiling to himself. "Make sure you're careful. I daresay these guys aren't as used to the water as me." Aaron muttered, inaudible to the others, before aiming his attention to the others.
"So, you guys sort of know my story now. What about you guys? What's your history?"

V sighed and entered his personal entrance to his part of the Domia base, which actually led initially inside his garage. "Water's back then." V noted, spotting the multi-purpose board that Water used to travel around, the only vehicle he was legally allowed to use.
V turned and looked around at the other vehicles for a second: Air's Hover-bike, Fire's Motor-cross style bike with multiple attachments, Earth's Truck/tank-like vehicle that was normally used to transport them all at once, Aether's sleek silver sports car - seemingly straight out of a Bond film - and his own selection of super cars and musclers, each upgraded beyond the normal state, with much more attachments than usual. Not that he knew of them all, Earth usually did the modifying. V just helped around a bit.
He stroked one of the modified Ferraris once before exiting the garage via the Stairs at the back, which positioned him along the main corridor of his dominion.
He sighed and watched the many Grunts running to-and-fro, doing work that should've been done much earlier, and altogether being very busy. He shrugged and barged through them all, entering his room and jumping onto his bed, not noticing the letter or orb next to it.
