[center] [b][COLOR=#31EAFE][h1]Fiona MacConnell[/h1][/COLOR][/b] MENTIONS: Sawyer [@Vertigo], Nordrin [@Yankee], Isaiah [@PrankFox] [/center] Small wonder they'd gone for her Talonflame first. Judging by the number of moves she'd had her Pokemon try on the weird unknown Pokemon, Fiona could surmise that they were probably Steel and Bug type. Fiona scowled at the thought, continuing to command her Pokemon. She couldn't exactly tell who was commanding them, but someone was clearly giving orders, based on how well the fusion Pokemon were moving. [b][COLOR=#31EAFE]"Nuts tae butts, th' odd fuckers're probably Bug! Definitely Steel! Hit 'em with Fire if ya got it!"[/COLOR][/b] Fiona yelled out towards her fellow Gym Leaders while continuing to keep an eye on the battle. The sudden arrival of reinforcements had started to turn the tide, with several of the robbers' Pokemon being knocked out. Apollo's Flamethrower scored direct hits in the sides of all three of the strange Pokemon, their pained reactions definitely revealing that they were at the very least, weak to Fire-type moves. Unfortunately, this also gave Nordrin's Pokemon more to deal with as they were putting out the fires. As the rest of the criminal Pokemon began to fall and the odd ones were further weakened by stray attacks flying back and forth across the street, the thugs began to panic slightly. Just then, however... [b]"Damn it, you're all useless. A few people that can actually battle worth a damn show up, and you goons start falling apart. Hell, even the party favors don't look so hot. We can't afford to lose the prototypes to these idiots. Boss'd have my ass, which means I'd have every single one of yours."[/b] A male voice boomed, its owner stepping out of the lab with a steel briefcase in hand. [url=https://i.imgur.com/YnPOzL9.png]A heavy coat, a hood, a high collar, and a cap all served to obfuscate any noticeable feature the man had,[/url] and he casually pulled three Ultra Balls out of his coat pocket, recalling the three mystery Pokemon. [b]"Fall in and rally behind me, we're pushing out-"[/b] He was cut off by Felon's roar, and the apparent leader of the group tilted his cap up towards the Mega Salamence, seeming to start for a moment before staring straight at Fiona. [b]"...You."[/b] [b][COLOR=#31EAFE]"What, do I know ya?"[/COLOR][/b] Fiona raised an eyebrow, even as she commanded her Gliscor to sucker punch a few Pokemon who were turning away to rejoin the main group. [b][COLOR=#31EAFE]"Don't think I owe ya money...fuck it, just get on wit' it. Who tae fuck're ye?"[/COLOR][/b] [b]"Someone whose property you stole, bitch."[/b] The hooded man snarled, fishing another Pokeball out of his pocket and releasing an Alakazam. [b][COLOR=#31EAFE]"Wait, wha-"[/COLOR][/b] [center][youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9EqU9y69vU[/youtube][/center] The Alakazam gripped its spoons tightly, snarling and drooling slightly in a disturbing fashion. This species...wasn't supposed to be that animalistic. [b]"Wide-range dispersal."[/b] The apparent admin commanded, and the Alakazam actually howled as it smashed its spoons together, black tornadoes forming around the entire street as they ravaged through friend and foe alike. By the time it was over, whatever the attack had been did a number on nearly every Pokemon in the street. No matter their Type, every Pokemon staggered like it had been hit by a super-effective attack, knocking out even Pokemon on the criminals' side that either had already been weakened or were just fragile enough to be unable to take a hit. On Fiona's side, she gaped for just a moment as half her team was knocked from the air, having already sustained enough damage from the ongoing battle to knock them out. Of her team, only Raptor and Felon remained conscious. [b][COLOR=#31EAFE]"Crazy fuckin' bastard!"[/COLOR][/b] Fiona snarled as she recalled her KOed Pokemon. In the confusion, the thugs started to disperse, recalling their Pokemon and running every which way. [b][COLOR=#31EAFE]"Dammit, let th' coppers get after 'em, we gotta take this one!"[/COLOR][/b] [b]"Come on, assholes!"[/b] The hooded man screamed back, releasing an equally vicious-looking Steelix as backup for his Alakazam, briefcase no longer in his hands.
