Cubone let out a yelp and cried in fear of being eaten alive as Lickitung had the little guy trapped in its Tounge. Ryuko ran forward, right arm gatheting energy. "Hang in there, I'm coming to free you!"
Her dragon pulse in hand, she slammed the orb of draconic energy into the Lickitung's stomach, before grabbing the pink pokemon's tongue in an attempt to swing it over her head and slam the opponent into the ground.

Bertie saw the tongue head straight towards his face. To avoid getting paralyzed with sickness, he exhaled an air of cold, a miniature Blizzard to stop the Lickitung's attack, before putting the pink pokemon on the ground and sitting on top of it to keep it from running away. Bertie then sighed. He really needed a nap after this.​

Seems like Altale's Thunderbolt somehow invited all of Sherry's other Pokemon to join in the fray. They popped out from their Pokeballs one by one, thus catching Sherry off guard just when she was pulling herself together. Kurama and Snowy immediately piled on Altale and the Lickilicky with Kurama potentially bearing the brunt of the Ampharos' Static. "Wait, we're doing a dogpile?" Aroma wondered with a bit of hesitation. "Oh heck yeah, a dogpile!" Tenniel mused right before piling on the Ninetales, thus spurring Aroma (and later, Sherry) to join in the dogpile. And Henry? He simply facepalmed at his teammates' antics with one of his chords. Instead of joining in the dogpile, he opted to brace himself in case the Lickilicky decided to counterattack.

Lickitung's face was twisted in concentration as he tried to pull away the bone club from the Lonely Pokemon, the little guy disappearing and reappearing amongst his seven foot tongue as Cubone struggled to get free. This left him even more oblivious to what was going on around him than usual and so when the doting Ryuko came to her Pokémon's defence, he was left wide open, her dragon pulse hitting him straight in the stomach and making him release Cubone from his prehensile prison as he was knocked off his feet.

The gooey Ground Type slid along the ground, sticky but none the worse for wear as his trainer, who quickly took advantage of the Lickitungs loss of balance, grabbed the candy coloured chameleon by the tongue, squeezing it tight as she lifted him off the ground. Though the Pokémon was at least twice her weight, the determined Dragon Type powered through and slammed him into the ground. The Lickitungs eyes spun around as the Normal Type lay dazed on the ground, defeated, though he may have had the last laugh as Ryuko was now covered in smelly saliva from her tongue grab.

Meanwhile a few feet away underneath the impromptu dogpile of Sherry's Pokémon lay his baby faced boss, with the only trace of him being his tremendous tongue, which crept from underneath the pile up and tapped out on the ground nearby, the crushing weight sitting on top of me making him concede.

That left the last Lickitung who still lay underneath Bertie, his tongue flailing around powerlessly as it slowly froze over from the Ice Types Blizzard, a huge chunk already forming on the tip. Letting out a sigh, he let his tongue fall to the ground, his face a picture of pure misery. What was supposed to be a night of fine dining turned out to be a bar room brawl for the tasting trio and he still had some much he wanted to taste. He looked over at Ryuko with big puppy dog eyes, hoping for mercy. Or at least a snack maybe.

Ryuko let out a sight of tiredness as she picked up Cubone, scooping up the littly guy in her arms.
"Are you okay Cubone? You aren't hurt are you?"
Cubone waved his club and replied, before looking away with his eyes showing an expression of disgust.
"Huh? I Need to get myself cleaned?"
She looked over to Bertie, and the pink pokemon he was sitting on. Charizard and Tyranitar had gotten back up, recovered from their knock out by the lickitung bros before approaching Ryuko.
Ryuko handed Cubone to Charizard and nodded. "I'll be right back!"

Ryuko approached the Lickitung that was still concious, and looked to Bertie. "Get off him please. He isn't gonna fight anymore with us."
Bertie got up and stepped away as Ryuko got to her knees and petted the Lickitung's head. "I get you are hungry, but you could have asked first." ​

Bertie got up and stepped away as Ryuko got to her knees and petted the Lickitung's head. "I get you are hungry, but you could have asked first." ​

Lickitung gazed up at Ryuko, with a look of both embarrassment and remorse before righting himself "Licki..." he said apologetically, rubbing the back of his head with his tongue as he stared at the ground in shame. He let out long sigh as if he bore the weight of the world on his shoulder as he murmured to himself "Tung, Tung. Licki"

He sat motionless for a minute as if dwelling on something, before looking at his former foe from the corner of his eye. Lifting his head as if he had come to some sort of revelation, his gaze quickly turned to Ryuko's Pokémon before looking the young ninja straight in the eye. "Licki! Licki!" he proclaimed, the sense of urgency in his voice undeniable as he began to explain his actions in Poke speak to her.

Holding her hands in his tongue as he explained, the Lickitung regaled to her about the mass poaching of Pokémon from his Safari Zone home, his friends captured and stuffed into cages to be taken away and torn from their families, never to be seen again. And that was if you were lucky, with more common Pokémon or those that had useless abilities or natures being outright killed if they got in the way, the Lickitung shuddering at the thought. So he and his pals had to get away anyway they could and, in doing so, ended up in Cianwood. Afraid and hungry they lashed out at those that looked like their captors, stealing their food to ready themselves for their tumultuous trek to parts unknown, and hopefully safety.

The Licking Pokémon felt ten pounds lighter after sharing his story with the Dragon Type Trainer, feeling a connection with her even though he was a wild Pokémon. But there was something about her and her bond with her own Pokémon that really spoke to the Lickitung. And with that thought in his mind, he made a deal with Ryuko. "Tung, Tung" the Licking Pokémon pronounced pointing his tongue at her and then towards the Safari Zone. He did this a few times before pointing his tongue at himself and then Ryuko's pokeballs. "Licki!"

To any of her Pokémon, or the young trainer herself if she understood Poke speak, it would sound like the Lickitung wanted her to help his friends in the Safari Zone, gladly joining her team if she did so.

"SACRED FIRE!" Yelled out Falco as the boosted solar beam was produced, ripping apart the tiles on the floor of the gym while it rocketed towards him. A column of flame, also aided by Cinder's sunny day, erupted from the ground as Falco stretched out his hand. The solar beam collided with the white-hot pillar, and for a moment the second attack looked like it might hold up. Solar beam, however, is the very essence of the sun. Combined with Sunny Day, it is nearly unmatched in raw power by any other move. As such Falco quickly bailed out from behind his temporary cover, a flap of his wings boosting his speed. The beam eventually overpowered and burst through the column of magical flame, taking a car-sized chunk out of the wall behind it. Falco continued, now air born, to fly to it's source.

The flame on his wings dripped off behind him as he soared precariously outside the path of the solar beam. He seemed to be disregarding Jackie's approach entirely as he did so, and activated two moves when he was in range of attacking Cinder. One was his flying type move, which caused him to spin and pivot through the air gaining momentum and power with every turn, resembling some sort of flaming drill as his wings wrapped around him. He then thrust his foot out, and the flying type aura combined with fire from his Blazing Kick, the two moves working in synchronicity to double his attack power. "It's unwise to fire off your strongest attack when your opponent is still full of stamina. No wonder you lost your duel with Chance," Said Falco smugly while he attacked, inexplicably knowing about Cinder's past with the Electric Type Leader.

"CLOSE COMBAT" Yelled the fighting type woman fiercely. Her fists were coated in the brick-like color of a fighting type once more, and her movements became even quicker than before. Just as the Tri Attack erupted from Andy's staff, she jabbed at it with the precision and power of any pro boxer. It began to cut through the beam, and she kept pummeling it until it dissipated, taking step after step with every blow to be closer and closer to the Fairy Type. Eventually, she was right on top of him, and now aimed her combo directly at him, a left and right hook rocketing at his head one then the other.

Hariyama was not so swift. The large lumbering sumo took the focus blast with no reaction, not even a flinch. The scratches it caused on his huge body were the only thing indicating he had taken damage at all. He then threw himself forward on top of Excalibur, who's eyes widened in mild horror. He was too close to react properly to being Body Slammed, and was engulfed by the Hariyama's massive body. The ground shook terribly when the fighting type smacked the earth.

[mdebourg]

The tri attack getting nulled was a major setback, the Close combat didn't help as that combo sends him back quite a ways, leaving an indent where they make contact. The focus blast didn't seem to do much of anything either, the Hariyama just taking that with not so much as a shrug of the shoulder, this just got worse and worse. Nevertheless, with distance now between the two again, though at the price of a ride on the pain train, Andy would hurry over to where Excalibur should have been if he didn't faint from the body slam and prepare a barrage, each blast surrounded in a pink aura Andy intending to get the big lug off of Excalibur with this as well having Onyx also look to blast the sumo pokemon with a moonblast

The two now just looking to hopefully get some edge on one because as of the moment he was pretty much guaranteed to be shown up yet again.

...okay, big welp. Sherry kinda expected the Lickilicky to retaliate like (Henry Stickmin spoiler again) how Mr. Right Hand Man did in the Master Bounty Hunter route of Completing the Mission, but seems like that's not the case. She got off from the dogpile, then took a deep breath upon seeing the boss' tongue under the pile of Pokemon and yelled a command to her squad: "Back off, everyone!!!" The dogpile soon dissipated and Henry calmed down following the order.

Spoiler

Sherry then conjured a Present and calmly walked up to the lickers' boss as soon as Altale got up. Unlike last time though, this one would actually heal the receiver when opened. With that, the ice-type girl knelt down to the Lickilicky and whispered as she put said Present on his tongue, "Sorry about that, big guy. You could've just asked..."

"Surprise Motherclucker!" Jackie cried, as he intercepted the attack meant for Cinder.

As Grayson came at Cinder from the side with his combined attack, the headstrong Hyde had slid underneath his buddy's beam to get in on the action and unleashed a Sucker Punch. No way near strong enough to inflict damage or even stop the Dual Type drill attack, instead the smoky darkness of his move choked the flame of Falco's Fire Kick just enough for the daring Dark Type to get purchase around the Gym Leaders legs, locking them together between his braced arms.

This kind of move would be suicide for anyone else as the Flying Type was akin to an enormous earth borer in terms of sheer speed and power right now, but the conceited coat wearer just had to show off his skills in times like this. And his vest.

With the flames dying back within his ghastly grip, the hardened Hyde used his Fur Coat to slow the Drill Peck as he took it straight in the chest, his valued Vest taking the brunt of it. In the face of this incredibly powerful attack, Jackie was hesitant to push his luck too far with such a manoeuvre but it had provided the perfect set up for him. With Grayson's Attack practically doubled from doing his... Fire Peck?... Drill Punch?... Jackie would have to think of a better name when he told this story later, on top of the increase from Cinder's Sunny Day raising it higher still, he was going to be in a world of pain in a few moments.

"Foul Play!" roared the spiky haired savage, using his vice like arms to twist the Flying Types legs one way then the other, taking away some of his momentum. Jackie briefly let go as he prepared to grab Falco's feet and, using his foes increased power against him, smash him into one of the nearby columns.

Two attacks to control a dual typed assault. The Dark Type's cunning and battle tested maneuvers proved to be of a superior class, evident by the way he grappled Falco and redirected him into a support beam of the gym, which promptly shattered and crumbled with all the built up force of the attacks mixing together. Large chunks would fall upon all three battlers in the next few moments, and Falco raised his wings and arms over top of his body and face to protect himself from the jagged concrete. As his wings folded over him, he activated Air Slash, a move which had gusts of sharpened wind slice through his section of rubble reducing them to manageable rocks which only left small bruises on him. He was sure to not do anything to the large chunks which were falling towards Jackie and Cinder, however.

Ryuko understood immediately what was wrong. Traveling with her companions for a long time, aside from the recent addition of what some could consider to be her adopted child, has it's perks. Ryuko turned around, and started running off towards the safari zone. Charizard, Bertie, and Tyranitar started to follow, but Ryuko looked towards them.
"No, you guys stay here! Protect Licky and his two friends from trouble!"
The three larger pokemon stoped as they looked to the pink pokemon that was watching Ryuko leave, as if they thought Ryuko was pulling a prank. "I'm being serious! Keep watch untill I return!"

The Lickilicky looked at Sherry hesitantly before giving the Present she had given him a once over with his tongue. Not looking or tasting bad, he gently grasped it within his tongue and slowly pulled open the bow, the lid slipping off with all the saliva over it. In a spray of confetti the evolved eater suddenly felt much better, his back no longer in pain and the tingly sensation all over his body disappearing. "Licki!" said the Lickilicky, rising up off the ground and thanking the Ice Type.

The Licking Pokémon turned around, as Ryuko rushed past him with Cubone in tow, heading in the direction of the Safari Zone. He turned back to his gift giving girl friend, motioning her to follow the Dragon Type with his tongue, knowing full well the danger she was getting into first hand. With a slow deliberate motion, the oversized onlooker got to his feet waddling towards his fallen friend, hoping to share Sherry's Present with him.

Meanwhile Ryuko would notice as she quickly approached the Cliff Gate to the Safari Zone, a multitude of musclebound men in gym uniforms hanging around the cliff face. There was one exception, however that Ryuko might not notice but Sherry most certainly would and that was the presence of her adoptive uncle, his raven hair missing from the crowd even though he had gone to investigate this very place. Stranger still, was that one of the Black Belts seemed to be holding an item of Garrets as well.....

With the pack of protein lovers guarding the gate, most likely thanks to some new found friends, not looking like the most welcoming people the girls might be in for a fight. Being seen as criminals probably wouldn't help them either but if Sherry wanted to find out about Garret approaching them might be the only way. Still it would allow Ryuko to go the Safari Zone unhindered and fulfil her promise to her pink pal so maybe it was time to split up for now.

“Hey, don’t turn your back on me!” Yelled the woman fiercely as Andy turned to gang up on her Hariyama. She didn’t seem in the least to care about her partner Pokémon, but was offended the Fairy Type would dare move his attention even for a second. She stepped into the ground and it crumbled beneath her step, and she aimed a crushing blow into Andy’s back with enough power to Break Bricks.

Still, despite the sure bruises Andy was going to have in the morning, his two pronged attack seemed to have paid off. Hariyama was gritting it’s teeth and furrowing it’s brow, seemingly in pain from the Moonblast and Andy’s own blast of aura striking it from point blank on both sides. When the massive sumo Pokémon started to get up, however, Excalibur was not beneath him in the crater caused by his body slam. Even Hariyama seemed surprised by this. Then, Excalibur jumped out of the dirt as if it were nothing but water moving aside for him, and he slashed the fighting type in an uppercut fashion with his Dragon Claw. The Hariyama fell back and cried out in great pain. When Excalibur was fully out of the earth he turned towards Andy’s direction, and smiled at him. He then frowned and roared after seeing the Fairy Trainer be struck from behind by the Fighting Type woman.

Jackie slipped off his coat in one swift movement, his arms going lax and allowing the silky shelter to tumble gracefully from his shoulders and into his hands. Within moments he held his coat over his head, Obstructing and catching the debris within it, readied to be used by the devilish Dark Type. Not to mention it allowed for the hot Hyde to cool off a bit, the whole gym literally sweltering due to the heat of the battle. Even with his dark clothes, he might have been mistaken for a Water Type if the temperature kept rising with all the sweating he was doing.

Still a good sweat meant a good workout, and Jackie didn't mind that as that came with it's own rippling rewards, his muscles holding under the strain as a large chunk of rock crashed on top of him. The arrogant Atlas could have been mistaken for a Gurdurr by this point, a band of concrete lining his coat but feeling the worst of it was over, the heavy laden Hyde had plenty of ammo now for a DIY Dark version of Rock Blast.

Jumping back and letting his coat fall to the ground, Jackie began Flinging the concrete chunks at his Flying Type foe, the old adage of two birds with one stone becoming the complete opposite for the disregarding Dark Type.

 

[mdebourg]

She was quite the pain but right now Excalibur needed a big weight lifted off of him, literally. That is what prompted him to turn his back on this woman and launch his attack on the Hariyama along with Onyx. By the time the attacks resolved, it didn't look like the pokemon was down just yet but they had most certainly made a sizable dent with the twin moonblasts. Better still, the main objective of this attack had being accomplished in freeing the Garchomp from the big lug of a pokemon, Andy smiling as he got his own smack in too.

That smile, however, would be wiped off his face via the two brick breaks that somehow didn't end up breaking his spine upon impact, the fairy trainer dropping to the ground quicker than an anvil after this, down and in some serious pain but not out just yet. "Noted," he said simply in response to her, that hurt like hell sure but at least Excalibur was back with him and buried under the Fighting type. "Now back to dealing with her" he mutters to himself turning back to her after taking a few seconds to recover from that, "Incinerate her will you please Onyx?" the Clefable blasting a gout of flame her way while Andy looks to steal some of that girl's energy via Draining Kiss, a rose colored ray shooting out from this staff now towards this fighting type woman for now.

 

[Kobe Nathan Wade]

Excalibur was very grateful for the backup from Andy and Onyx, keeping the pressure on Hariyama as their triple assault gave him an opening. He wanted to rush to Andy’s side, and help him face off against that very intimidating fighting type woman, but decided he would leave that job to the trainer’s own Clefable. Instead he instinctively dodged another Ice Punch from Hariyama with a duck. The slower Pokémon looked surprised that his haymaker didn’t connect, and didn’t seem to have much of a plan past that. Excalibur then crossed his arms, and bisected Hariyama through his stomach with his Dragon Claws. Before his opponent could recover from the pain of having his belly slip open, Excalibur pounced onto his front like a cat and hung off him using his sharp fins of Draconic Energy.

The massive Sumo fell backwards with a great sound and tremor running through the earth, and Excalibur chomped down onto it’s neck. It tore out some of the being’s pale flesh, and then raised up his head to see how Andy was doing.

Onyx’s flamethrower had forced the woman to dodge left, but in her haste to not be roasted alive she was caught off guard by Andy coming in close. Much closer than she was ever prepared for. In fact, closer than Anne Michelle had ever let anyone in her life. She had grown up raised only by her father, to be a warrior. It was all she had ever known, or cared to know. She trained, ate, slept, and conquered. So when Andy came in and gently laid a kiss on her chest, she felt her will to fight escape along with the energy it drained from it. Her cheeks went rosy, and she recoiled by jumping several meters backwards. At first she seemed unable to speak, staring at Andy mouth agape and eyes confused, but longing. Longing for the tenderness she’d just felt. Then, her eyes went mad with rage, and embarrassment.

“That. Don’t. Don’t you ever do anything like that again,” Said Anne her blush growing deeper on her cheeks and ears. She saw that Hariyama had faded from this world, and the blood on Excalibur’s teeth, and spat on the ground between her and the others. “Great, now I have to go train a new tank. Thanks,” Was all the sympathy she had for her dead partner. “I’m gonna kick your ass so bad,” She said, turning her face towards Andy yet again and glaring furiously. She then disappeared from sight, as if moving too fast for the naked eye to see. Then, everything was quiet. Andy felt somewhat refreshed from the energy he stole from Anne.

Excalibur came forward a few steps and put his clawed appendage, ending his battle effects, on Andy’s shoulder. He gave him a look of concern, hoping the little trainer was okay after the encounter.

" I'm alright, thanks Excalibur " Andy flashes a smile to the land shark pokemon as he walks up to him, Andy stretching a bit trying to regain a bit of flexibility after the two brick breaks. " Nice work finishing off the hariyamaand thanks for the help. " this said after a quick glance and noticing there was minus one pokemon.

He then turns to Onyx giving her a thumbs-up, "You did well too Onyx" he says to her getting a small smile from her. She never was too expressive, not that he minded much. Besides they had a mission to continue, "Now let's continue the journey to Violet City" he nods starting to move on after that woman, Anne, disappeared in a blur.

Okay, Sherry may not be able to understand the Lickiboss' language word-by-word, but at least she could understand his gesture. She then looked at the direction he had pointed at: the Safari Zone, where Ryuko just ran off to. "Okay, thank you," she said before returning most of her Pokemon back to their Pokeballs, save for Snowy whom she let out just in case. The blue Ninetales had already ran off a little bit, but then turned back to find her trainer holding two more of those gift boxes in her hands. After making sure that they're actually the healing variant of Presents, Snowy gave one of them to the half-conscious Lickitung over there and Sherry gave hers to the other one, both apologizing for the trouble.

Just when the ice-type duo were about to run off again, Sherry felt someone poking her. Just who could it be this time?

"Umm… Excuse me?"

With the soft spoken voice coming from behind them, the girls turned around to see the blue haired woman from the tour group Nanami, Kaede's Sherry's lady in waiting. "I just wanted to thank you two for saving me from those Pokémon earlier." She bowed slightly as she spoke, a gesture of gratitude before raising her head and looking at the two trainers.

"Though I wish they hadn't smashed my phone. Lord Shugo's going to be mad if I don't contact him soon." Her shoulders slumped at the thought "Still I can't blame you for that, my phone was the least of your worries." A smile crossed Nanami lips, as proof she held no malice towards the girls. "Or you friend's. Where is he by the way? I'd like to thank him as well and I was sure I saw him come this way earlier"

She took a step forward, her gaze focusing on Sherry "Actually, speaking of friends, didn't I see you had an Alolan Ninetales? I had a friend who had a similar type Vulpix." Her gaze became more scrutinizing as she went on "I'm actually looking for her. Her name is Ka...."

Before Sherry's cover was possibly blown, a large wolf whistle was heard coming from the direction of the Black Belts, who quickly approached the trio. "Hey, It's one of those Geisha Girls from Ecruteak City" declared one of them, noticing Nanami's more traditional attire "I went to see them when I was there for an exhibition match, a couple of days ago"

Misidentified as one of the famous Geisha, all eyes were now on Nanami which was lucky for the girls but not for the Ransei native "You know this place can be quite dangerous, there's escaped Pokémon running around causing havoc. But if you like we could protect you." The vest wearing man reached out towards Nanami, jumping back with a giggle as she pulled away, his bullhorn slipping around in his shorts pocket.

"Too bad you weren't here a minute ago, you could have seen me in action. I just kicked this old guys butt for refusing orders." proclaimed the other Black Belt, pushing in front of his cohorts, grasping something in his hand tightly before cramming it in his pocket, though Sherry knew the item belonged to Garret.

With things quickly escalating out of hand for the longed after lady in waiting, something had to be done. Suddenly the ground erupted underneath them with incredible strength, forcing the martial arts mob backwards, as Nanami had just used the ground type move Earth Power. "Don't come near me!" screamed the Ground Type girl.

"You want a fight do ya? Well lets see how you like taking on all three of us!" one of the Black Belts snarled, the Fighting Types surrounding Nanami.

With the group of Gym trainers focused on Nanami, the way was clear to the Safari Zone for Ryuko and Sherry but with her friend in danger could she leave her and Garret's life's possibly on the line. Still they had their own life's to think about, and those of the Pokémon in the Safari Zone too, which Ryuko had promised Lickitung to help.

Ryuko stopped at the blocked road, glaring at the people blocking the way. They looked really dangerous, posing like maniacs as Ryuko felt a Menacing Aura from them.
"Why do I hear boss music?"
She thought, even though music wasnt playing.
That train of thought was soon disrupted by Nanami, who wanted to thank her and Sherry (When did she get here?) For helping. Ryuko smiled and scratched the back of her own head. "It was nothing! I did it out of the goodness of my heart!"
Cubone muttered, knowing that was somewhat untrue.

The small Pokemon's head perked up, looking to the sound of approaching foot steps as the group of black belts approached. Ryuko can see the purple aura eminating from them and she stepped back in fear. They were intimidating. The black belts then harrassed Nanami, which Ryuko wanted to stop from happening, but she had a promise to keep.
"Sherry, keep the girl safe!"

Ryuko leaped into the air and flew over the black belts, at her top speed, as Cubone hung on for dear life.​

"Uh... yeah..." Sherry sweatdropped, especially at the mention of the name "Lord Shugo". She knew that Shugo is Kaede's half-brother, but why in the world would he even look for her anyway? That's what Sherry couldn't help but to wonder about.

She took a step forward, her gaze focusing on Sherry "Actually, speaking of friends, didn't I see you had an Alolan Ninetales? I had a friend who had a similar type Vulpix." Her gaze became more scrutinizing as she went on "I'm actually looking for her. Her name is Ka...."

"Uh, sis... we're screwed..." Snowy cooed in her own language. Her tone somehow confirmed Sherry's wild guess that they would be having a bad time should they return to Ransei. But still, Sherry had a business to finish here in Johto, she couldn't revert back to Kaede just yet.

Before Sherry's cover was possibly blown, a large wolf whistle was heard coming from the direction of the Black Belts, who quickly approached the trio.

And then chaos ensued. These black belts trio made a fuss about Nanami being one of the Geisha Girls (which was zero percent true) and starting to harass her, thus drawing out the ice-type's fury. Sherry proceeded to triple-kick the one with Garret's stuff with Triple Axel with one of the kicks aimed at his shin if the move connects. Snowy too, acted quickly by coming up to Nanami's side and subjecting the other two men with her Dazzling Gleam. And then there was a hailstorm in the battlefield. Definitely summoned by a Snow Warning, but still unclear whether it was Sherry's or Snowy's.

"Tell me, is this how you treat a tourist?" Sherry asked the baddies with a calm yet furious tone as soon as she finished her kicks. As much as she didn't want to reveal her real self just yet, she had to acknowledge her old friend as a tourist right there. Plus, weren't the Geisha Girls' outfit supposed to be more elaborate than Nanami's?

Cinder was still burning with power but now the effects of the boost were evident, he was starting to visibly crisp at some parts of his tanned body. However, with a clenched fist and singular determination, Cinder would get up anyways ready to continue fighting, "Any more tricks up your sleeve shadow boy?" heaved Cinder getting into a fighting stance beside the rock flinging darkness adict, he would help the effort of the rock-throwing by using one of his more recent techniques, harnessing the thermal energy within his core through his foot on the ground and using the ground as a conduit for the heat he would rapidly warm up the very earth around Falco, "HOW DO YOU LIKE SCORCHING SAND?" He roared​

Excalibur was ready to happily step behind his new friend Andy, when the sun glimmered off of an item wrapped around Hariyama's wrist. It was a silky piece of clothing which was actually quite long, however around the deceased Sumo Pokemon's arm it looked like little more than a workout band. Excalibur bent down and sniffed the item, and then undid the knot gently with his two dull claws. He then jogged after Andy and Onyx to catch up. Excalibur offered the Choice Scarf to Andy happily like a Yamper with a freshly thrown stick.

"Garrrr," He said softly, as he held it out. If Andy took it he would notice he suddenly felt much lighter on his feet, as if he could run like the wind despite his rather bulky shield and staff. After a while of walking Andy would notice he was nearing then end of route 37 and starting onto route36. Overtop the very dense ticket that was the treeline, he could see the Bell Sprout tower marking the location of Violet City in the distance. The sun had set sometime while the battle with Anne Michelle raged on, and now a cold wind howled through the trees. Excalibur didn't seem to mind, but when a low whistling came through overtop wind, he seemed to go a bit on edge. He bared his fangs instinctively and looked into the darkness back and forth, being sure to keep up a steady pace down the path rather than stand still.

"HA! Throwing rocks? That's no way for a warrior to behave!" Said Falco, standing up very quickly by putting his hand out behind him to sit up and flapping his wings, lifting himself up gracefully. He face the Dark type full frontal as he began flinging rubble. "USE A PROPER MOVE AGAINST ME, OR YOU'LL END UP ROASTED ALIVE!"
Falco thrust both his palms out in front of him just as it looked like the first projectile would hit. Yet another column of White Sacred Fire erupted from the ground. The rocks entered it's embrace and melted into magma, falling to the ground. Instead of dispelling it as he had done before, however he kept the colomn between him and his opponents.

He then flapped his mighty wings towards them once more, and crescents of slicing wind were summoned forward from them with the energy of Flying Types. The Air slash travelled forward into the fire, and picked it right up like a tornado adopting a house fire. The then transformed wind blades soared after Jackie Hyde with a vehemence that threatened to cut him to ribbons, and cauterize the wounds afterwards.

Falco would have no time to aim an attack at his other opponent, however, as he found himself sinking into the ground beneath his feet. His socks and the bottom of his Gi pants were seared off, and he flinched in pain. What, a ground type move? But that would mean he was-! He thought to himself. The flying type Leader then rapidly began to stomp and attempt to pry his feet free of the burning sand beneath them. Once he was on top of it, another beat of his six and a half foot wingspan sent him soaring into the sky.

Ryumaru Ryuko

Ryuko stopped at the blocked road, glaring at the people blocking the way. They looked really dangerous, posing like maniacs as Ryuko felt a Menacing Aura from them.
"Why do I hear boss music?"
She thought, even though music wasnt playing.
That train of thought was soon disrupted by Nanami, who wanted to thank her and Sherry (When did she get here?) For helping. Ryuko smiled and scratched the back of her own head. "It was nothing! I did it out of the goodness of my heart!"
Cubone muttered, knowing that was somewhat untrue.

The small Pokemon's head perked up, looking to the sound of approaching foot steps as the group of black belts approached. Ryuko can see the purple aura eminating from them and she stepped back in fear. They were intimidating. The black belts then harrassed Nanami, which Ryuko wanted to stop from happening, but she had a promise to keep.
"Sherry, keep the girl safe!"

Ryuko leaped into the air and flew over the black belts, at her top speed, as Cubone hung on for dear life.​

With tremendous speed Ryuko passed into Cliff Edge Gate too almost go slamming into a giant billboard that was advertising her very destination, the prodigious poster showing everything the Johto Safari Zone had to offer. Many a rare and unusual Pokémon lined the advert, including her new friend Lickitung, as well a whole host of different terrains from deserts to wetlands. But the most important detail to Ryuko was the massive arrow in the corner of the poster pointing towards a tunnel in the cave face with a message in big bold letters saying THANKS TO KABU CORP, SPEND MORE TIME CATCHING POKEMON IN THE SAFARI ZONE WITH OUR NEW ENTRANCE!

Though this tunnel was undoubtedly built to aid the conniving conglomerate in their current scheme, it would also allow the nurturing ninja to get to the Safari Zone in half the time. A fact she quickly took advantage of as she raced down the the well lit passage like a tiny train and within minutes arrived at the Safari Zone Gate, ignoring the surprisingly busy Bazaar to enter the Entrance Building. The room was unnoteworthy as such, with a small row of benches to the left while the other side was lined with display shelves, a multitude of tourist pamphlets held on them. Two single pot plants stood at the door, one dancing slightly in the breeze as the door closed behind Ryuko making the receptionist look up from the desk. She smiled at the young trainer, her pretty features easily noticeable with her obsidian hair tied back in a stylish ponytail as she looked up from the computer. "Welcome to the Safari Zone. If you'd like to come over, I can register you so you can get started"

All though the receptionist seemed pleasant enough, her sweet scented perfume seeming to permeate the room, there was something off about this whole situation. Everything seemed completely normal, a fact that in itself was abnormal considering the place now had Fighting Type guards blocking the entrance as well a trio of recently escaped wild Licking Pokémon running through it. Unless of course, Ryuko's new pink pals escaped undetected possibly? Though their behaviour in Cianwood would make that kind of thought suspect. Still Ryuko had to get into the Safari Zone as soon as possible and approaching the receptionist would be the quickest way to do so.

And then chaos ensued. These black belts trio made a fuss about Nanami being one of the Geisha Girls (which was zero percent true) and starting to harass her, thus drawing out the ice-type's fury. Sherry proceeded to triple-kick the one with Garret's stuff with Triple Axel with one of the kicks aimed at his shin if the move connects. Snowy too, acted quickly by coming up to Nanami's side and subjecting the other two men with her Dazzling Gleam. And then there was a hailstorm in the battlefield. Definitely summoned by a Snow Warning, but still unclear whether it was Sherry's or Snowy's.

Taken unaware by Sherry's first strike, the Black Belt buckled slightly to one side as he was kicked in the shin though years of training made him quick to react, pivoting on the spot as he matched the last two kicks from her Triple Axel with a Double Kick of his own from his uninjured foot. Though slightly weaker than his opponents two increasing powerful kicks, his natural Typing made him super effective against the Ice Type easily equalling if not surpassing her move with his.

His buddies however weren't so lucky, the Fairy Type move of Snowy blinding them and hurting their eyes, making them recoil back from the light. Their pained cries alerted the Black Belt who quickly turned away from Sherry doing a double take upon seeing the Dazzling Gleam. He turned back to Sherry, a fire in his eyes as he came to a realisation. "You! I recognise you and that fox now! Your the one from the Exhibition!"

He smiled, grabbing a poke ball from his belt and throwing it at Snowy, revealing his Hitmonlee. "Me and my Hitmonlee having been aching for a rematch!" he bellowed.

"Guys, get out of here and tell the boss. I've got this" The Black Belt didn't even break eye contact from Sherry, as his buddies did as they were told "Four moves. You've got four moves before me and my Hitmonlee put you down with one shot"

The Kicking Pokemon eyed Snowy menacingly before rushing towards her, quickly bringing his arms up from his side hoping to Fake her Out with a sudden clap to her face. His trainer however was out for Revenge, steam coming off his body as he unleashed a massive kick at Sherry's chest for double damage, his damaged foot only making him angrier. And stronger.
