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!
Where: Goldenrod City!

They're not a brave enough boy for this.
The thug on the other hand, seems like he's ready to make some bad life choices.
"You wanna go, then let's go! You better be more of a challenge than that wuss over there."
Napstablook doesn't really react to the insult, only trying to shrink away further. This is escalating into an actual fight, and they're not really sure what to do. This is the kind of situation that makes Napstablook wish they both could just phase away.]
mettaton.... please be careful
no subject
Mettaton loves the smell of fresh dumbass in the morning.]
I'd like to think I am quite challenging! Just remember, you brought this upon yourself!! And no backing out~
[He casually lets the pokéball roll off the tips of his fingers. It strikes the ground, and then there's a flash of light--a very large flash of light--bursts from it and begins to take shape. Someone rolled a jackpot on the shit lottery, because that certainly is a very powerful Goodra.
The over six-and-a-half foot slime dragon towers next to Mettaton, and although he's smiling as always, Silky clearly wants to know one thing.
Do you feel lucky, punk? Go ahead. Send your pokémon out.]
no subject
They don't know how strong Mettaton's goopy dragon is, but they trust that Mettaton can win - or at least stands a way better chance of winning than they do.
The grunt doesn't look very happy though.
"T-tch, whatever! Go Grimer!"
And perhaps an even goopier Pokemon appears, made entirely out of sludge with its jaw a little more yellow than the rest of its body.]
i'm so sorry for all this ham
Are you watching, Blooky? You won't want to miss a second of the show!!
[No seriously. Did this grunt think he was the only theatrical individual on the battle floor? If so, Mettaton's here to prove him wrong via extremely practiced posing. He points to the mess of sludge that passes for a Pokémon and lets out a dramatic groan of disgust, returning his attention to the matter at hand.]
Oh no! How garish!!! Do you really think something as uncouth as your pile of refuse can stand a chance against my beautiful team?! [The arm that was extended in an accusatory point now draws back, tracing down from the crown of Mettaton's head to his chest and settling there; his fingers didn't touch even a centimeter of skin, it's all practiced and flashy.
This was all for show...and then he grins.]
Silky, why don't we show him how a real star battles? Use your Dragon Breath!!
[The Goodra obliges, parting its slimy maw and shooting out a beam of energy towards the Grimer.]
no subject
The Grimer slips into a puddle of itself as it faints, and the Team Skull calls back his Pokémon with a panicked look.
"J-just you wait, w-we won't forget this!"
And he takes off running, presumably to find another member of Team Skull about what happened. Napstablook slowly slides out from behind Mettaton once the dust from his Pokémon battle settles.]
"mettaton... that was so cool..."
It sounds unenthusiastic, but coming from Blooky? They're being sincere. A look of relief is spreading across their face, along with a smile.
no subject
[Mettaton calls the taunt after the scared little grunt, then he prances towards Silky and gives him a quick little pat on the cheek.]
I know someone who has a Sitrus berry in their future!! Excellent work, Silky!!
[After the bit of praise, he calls the Goodra back into its ball, clipping it back to his belt and turning his attention to Blooky. He deeply appreciates the compliment of course, and he knows that it's sincere; it's pretty obvious, given that he knows his cousin.]
Thank you, Blooky!! I'm glad you enjoyed it! You did a great job too, holding your ground until I could intervene!!!
[And by holding his ground, he means that Napstablook hadn't let himself be drawn into a losing battle. Better that Mettaton handled all of the fighting for now!]
no subject
[Except be terrified until Mettaton showed up to the rescue. Their eyes linger a little on Silky. As much as their time in this world has been spent learning how to be human, they've been trying to spend more time learning about all the different kinds of Pokemon. They only have two right now - both catlike? But Silky was big and goopy and they kind of liked it a lot.]
thank you for saving me... i don't think i'm cut out to join more teams... they seem pretty intense
[... Yeah, Blooky still doesn't really understand that the purpose of the teams is to take down an actual threat.]
no subject
[Not if this was likely to happen again. Mettaton's extremely protective of Napstablook, after all.]
Don't worry though, we'll stick close and get through this together!!
[Mettaton definitely has enough confidence for the both of them!]
no subject
They really... should've paid closer attention to what these teams were actually for. Napstablook just didn't want to be the last to get in on something for once.]
oh.......
i hope... we don't upset them too much? for taking their tower
[Even though they're the bad guys who took the tower over in the first place. Blooky plz.]
i'll try not to slow you down too much....
