HALLOWEEN 2016: Team Skull Log

Who: Everyone who wants to join a team!
Where: Goldenrod City!
When: October 31st!
Summary: Team Skull's planned a full-fledged assault on Goldenrod; join up with a team and take them down!
Rating: Will vary from thread to thread. Warn for common triggers if something comes up.
Log:

It's been three days since Guzma's made his first announcement over the radio, but try as the police might, no one's been able to get to him since; after making his call to arms, asking all available Skulls to come to Goldenrod to have some fun, he seems to have completely dropped off without a trace. But Candela isn't concerned much about that. She's been at this for long enough to know the song and dance; this is a pivotal spot, after all, and Guzma will be back here before long, probably with more than enough cronies to go around. When that happens, they'll head him off at the pass. Easy as that. He's gotta get orders out to the people outside, after all, and the only place he can do that is here.

He won't take it over a second time. Team Valor will make sure of that.

Meanwhile, outside the tower, Blanche would like to think she has a bit more control of the situation. Candela had been so gung-ho on kicking Guzma's ass in the tower that Blanche almost didn't have the heart to tell her that there was probably an ambush waiting in there for her. ...Rather, she tried, but Candela has a way of being far too stubborn for her own good...in any case, if she needs backup, she's out here to provide it, but if there are going to be riots and messes in the streets, its better to be out here where the damage is going to be at its highest, just to stop it before it starts. Already, Team Skull is starting to come out in small hordes, and it won't be long before things start to get hectic out here. Team Mystic, though, is dedicated towards stopping this before it gets a chance to start. ...But perhaps they'd be taken a bit more seriously if Candela and Spark hadn't forced her to dress up for Halloween--

Speaking of Spark, of course, Team Instinct's leader seems to have his priorities in order; if there are going to be riots and debris in the streets, some of the wild Pokemon in the area might just get hurt, and that will never do! So Spark has taken it on himself to lead a search-and-rescue charge with Team Instinct--any stray Pokemon in the Goldenrod area should be either captured or brought straight to a Pokemon Center ASAP! The goal is not to leave even one behind! ...Of course, Team Skull is a problem, too, but won't somebody think of the Pokemon--

You're free to NPC any Team Skull grunts and Pokemon interactions yourselves, but Team Valor will have the chance to battle Guzma, and Team Mystic will have the chance to battle Plumeria! Please be patient with responses in these threads; if the boss's Pokemon start to become too weak, they'll end up making a tactical retreat!

One last thing: you're all encouraged to have your character in costume for an event like this, and your team leaders will be dressed in costume, too! If three or more characters in costume participate in a thread together, a miracle might occur, and the Legendary Bird corresponding with your team has a chance to appear at your discretion! This applies in battles with Guzma and Plumeria, as well!

Have fun and Happy Halloween!

[She shook her head once. Nothing more than a bruised ego and a few reopened emotional wounds. Carefully, she pushed herself to her feet, hands still trembling. Once she was up, she plucked up Adorababy and held him close.]

You should go finish taking care of that. [Her voice was soft as she buried her face in the tufts of fur between 'Baby's ears.]

[He starts to inquire further into her upset, but the cries of the Pokemon in the battle distract him and he concludes with a bit of hesitation that they are currently in more need of assistance than Angel, who has three of her team to protect her.

When he's had enough of Team Skull's foolishness and decided that his team have taken enough of a beating, Anders himself charges at the grunts. Something about a hairy man barreling at them in a ballgown is just disturbing enough to send them scurrying off for easier prey.

Thankfully, that leaves him able to gather up Pinsy and Floppington, inspect their injuries, and return to Angel when he finds them minimal.]


Should we get to the Center? [The implication in his voice is more out of concern for her than the Pokemon.]

[While Anders, his team, and Mari fight off the goons, Angel surrounded herself with her team. Adorababy returned her nuzzles with gentle but eager cries, while the furret curls around her. Skagbait kept watch rather warily, her eyes occasionally alighting on Anders with some amount of suspicion.]

[By the time the small team returned, Angel was more than calmed down. She shook her head at his question, and moved to march in the opposite direction.]


There are more people who need our help!
purramedic: (just kinda chill)

[Anders looks plenty ready to protest, but at the very least, Angel is right. If she can hang on in spite of whatever's bothering her long enough to continue helping Goldenrod's Pokemon, that's what they should do.

As he falls into step with her, he digs in his bag for a couple of potions and treats the Pokemon cradled in his arms, talking softly at them and praising them for defending the wild ones of the city.]


Your team is still able to fight, yes?

[Angel nodded quickly. Furret was quite unperturbed by everything, even if he was suspicious of Anders still. Mari, on the other hand, was a bit more worn down, but she soldiered on for her trainer. Adorababy and Skagbait had both mostly avoided combat.]

We'll be okay, I promise...
purramedic: (le sad)

Of course...

If you need any potions, I have a few spare. [For the moment, at least. With the grunts everywhere, he doesn't know how long his small team can hold their own. He supposes he'll just have to keep sharing the burden of ass-kicking, himself.

Flop and Pinsy elect to hop down and continue walking on their own once they're able, even the former looking far more fierce than usual. The two are none too pleased with these Skull goons.]
