@Lucius Cypher Do you wanna get in a reply to Fuse's question before Karaha shows up?

Devon the Totodile

[Lilac Meadow]

@Iatos@Shiny Keldeo@Polaris North@Ninian
Psyching himself up for battle, Devon gave the Riolu twins a thumb up as they prepared their rush. The two rocketed out of the foliage like rockets, and after waiting a few moments, the Totodile himself dashed out and into the clearing. "Let's go guys! I'll take the right!"

Sprinting out behind Rico and Lulu as the ran, Devon screeched to a halt near the right treeline. His eyes darting upwards to spot a few Joltik and Spinarak stumbling around as they attempted to line up their sights with the two Fighting-types. A smirk came over the blue crocs face as he took a deep gulp of air and reeled back his head. That ain't happening.....Wait, how do I...Ok uh....My stomach kinda feels weird...That's good right?....Oh, ugh.. The reptiles eyes shrunk to the size of pin pricks as his head came lurching forward. His jaws being forced open as a high pressured stream of water blasted out from inside of him to slam into one of the hostile bugs and knock it out of the tree and out of sight. [DEVON used WATER GUN!] All the while, poor Devon was choking and coughing. Not knowing quite how to handle performing what was practically rapid projectile vomiting. "GACK! KUCK!"

Soon enough he got the hang of it however. The water jet soon slowed to a trickle. The clear liquid dripped down his chin as he set his sights on a another guard. The Joltik in question's bristles stood on end as it's four wide blue eyes met Devon's in utter horror. Eyes gleaming, the Totodile brought back his head and blasted the tiny tick with a powerful torrent of H2O. Sending the Electric Bug sky high. A few more shots and the current tree was clear. Spinning around to assess the rest of the situation, Devon jumped when a new voice shouted out. It seemed like the boss of the arachnids had arrived in the form of an Ariados and his cronies. Oh crap....Looks like this is just getting started....And they managed to bag those three jerks from earlier. Now we gotta save them too....

Running over to join his friends sides, the Pokémon once human barred his dagger-like teeth. "Bring it you bug-eyed freaks! We're leaving with our friends and you aren't stoppin' us!"

A white figure then seemingly phased into view behind the crime boss, leaping over him and into the group of kids to reveal that it was that same Absol from earlier. An appreciative smile came to Devon's maw as he nodded to Omen and turned to face the wave of on coming spiders. "Numbers don't mean anything if you can't work together! Guys! Focus on the small ones! Then we break for it!" With his plan offered, [DEVON used WATER GUN!] Focusing the liquid beam on what he hopped was the weakest point of the Bugs group. A few more Spinarak.

Glyph the Flygon

[Folio Town - Glyph's Guild]

@Ninian
Glyph chuckled a bit at Karaha's repeated misspeak of the Sibyl's title. "You can speak Miratete's name if that is easier. I do not think she minds. My sister, for example, has morning tea with her quite frequently. I don't think I've ever heard Glyde use the title. Much like how it is not mandatory for anyone to call me 'Guild Master'."

Nodding, the Flygon smiled. "The nature of this conversation will not be known to anyone else. Your secret is safe with me Karaha. Though if you have any problems, do not hesitate to flee the dungeon with everyone in tow. I will organise the members now."

Pushing the large cushioned chair away from the desk once again, the Guild Master stood and walked to the right side of the room with a dignified strut. Hands behind his back. Once at the wall he reach over to some sort of odd wood round hole with a hinged cover. Flipping open the cover, Glyph cleared his throat and lowered his head down to speak into it with a slightly raised voice.

"Attention everyone. Those of you that do not have urgency level three missions to take care of are requested to stay here in town. I want full teams patrolling the streets, inspection of every public building, guards at the Trunk's entrance, and you all to be battle ready. A Gardevoir that features wings has been identified in Folio's Trunk attempting to harm two civilians. I will give you all more information as soon as I am able, but for now I want this criminal found and arrested. Hostility is likely. Be on your guard. As well, I would like everyone to be on the look out for a young Totodile by the name of Devon. It is of the utmost importance that he is located and brought to the Guild for proper training. That i-"

Abruptly cutting himself off, Glyph awkwardly brought his head away from the hole to look over his shoulder at Karaha. "Do you still need another Guild member to accompany you and the others Karaha? Better safe than sorry is what I believe."

Devon the Totodile

[Folio Town - Hidden Grotto]

@Shiny Keldeo@Ninian
The wilting Kirlia in front of him caused Devon's jaws to dip in a small frown, but they soon curved back into a smile as he walked over to Lilisette and wrapped her in a tight hug. Head balancing on her shoulder. "Hey, cheer up. You're not alone here. I'm in the same boat as you. But you know what? I already consider you my friend Lilisette."

Glyph the Flygon

[Folio Town - Glyph's Guild]

@Ninian
The huge information dump had a variety of effects on the Guild Master. The mention of a person, a human, coming to Folio excited him beyond belief. The Flygon's antennae perking as he seemed to become a bit restless in his seat. There were oh so many questions he wanted to ask, but never the less Glyph's face remained calm and serious throughout Karaha's explanation. A human in Folio....Oh what a wonderful opportunity! Ever since I was a child I wanted to know more about them! Where do they reside? What magnificent discoveries have they made? What is their technology like?....What is their body structure!? Their true appearance!? The human that Guild Master Wigglytuff spoke to me about had taken the form of a normal Pokémon....And it seems this one has done the same....Stop it Glyph. Stop it right now. Now is not the time for an interview with the child....

Once the blue ringed Umbreon had finished his long explanation, Glyph sighed and sat back into his chair. Starring off to the side for a moment as he brought a claw to his cheek. "Oh dear...This...This has all happened before. Guild Master Wigglytuff discussed one of his old members with me last summer you see. This member of course, had memories and the knowledge of being `human' or a 'person'. Though very clearly they took the form of a Pokémon. They along with their closest partner saved the Grass Continent and by extension the world by preventing the Temporal Towers collapse and purifying Dialga. The Legendary Pokémon capable of influencing the flow of time. If what you say is true my friend, then that same dark influence that may have caused Dialga's rage may have taken another...Or perhaps it is a different influence, since if I recall the same human also defeated the original source...."

Shaking his head and putting both hands on his forehead, Glyph groaned. "Apologies, I'm rambling." Taking a moment to clear his throat, the Mystic Pokémon narrowed his eyes at the Moonlight Pokémon. "I believe that Gardevoir has something to do with the Legendary Pokémon's change of heart. From the way you talk of her, I assume she was hostile towards Devon. That of course makes her a prime suspect for the deed. I will have the entire town of Folio on the look out for her then. From this moment forward, she is a wanted criminal."

Taking a deep breath, the old adventurer smiled at his friend. "And what is this talk of you needing to save Folio on your own Karaha? It is nonsense. I know you are quite the capable fighter when it comes down to it, but if this dark force is rallying an army of dungeon dwellers, it is foolish to think that any one Pokémon could take them all.....Ah, and I see now. You want to venture forth into the Roots with Gren's party in attempts to intercept these forces."

A sad chuckle came from the Flygon's maw. "I'm glad you are not going alone at least. I don't think I can stop you just like we could not stop the others, so I won't try to. Just please be careful. I will take care of everything here in the city. Guild members will patrol the streets and guard the entrance to Folio's Trunk, and Devon will be found and trained under my wing immediately. Is there anything else I should be aware of? Anything specific I should do to assist? Should I perhaps ask the Sibyl personally?"

Devon the Totodile

@Shiny Keldeo@Ninian
Devon took a few awkward steps back from the Kirlia hovering directly at the end of his snout. Clearing his through, he shrugged. "No...The forest is nowhere near a desert. And the only thing I really know is that's where it lives, it time travels, and that it rarely shows up for anyone. And it's not like I know where exactly this forest is either. I don't even remember what my 'home' is. Much less what's around it. Sorry Lilisette."

Glyph the Flygon

[Folio Town - Glyph's Guild]

@Ninian
With everyone else departed for the dungeon, Glyph walked over to the side of the room. Three plain wood chairs sat in the corner of the room, one of which he pulled up in front of his large desk. Looking over to Karaha, he gestured to the chair. "Please, have a seat Karaha."

The Flygon went back behind the desk and pulled himself back into his own chair, taking the papers off of the top of his desk and putting them in a neat pile inside of a pull out drawer. With everything in order and his desk face clear, Glyph leaned his clasped claws onto it and looked straight on at Karaha. The seriousness expression on the Guild master's face adding to the tense of the silent room. "Now, you mentioned a 'woman' while those three were here....As well as some sort of disaster foreseen by the Sol Sibyl? Can you please explain to me what you know about both subjects? I've been so caught up with other matters today, it seems I'm behind on the latest news. That is certainly not very professional of me..."

Devon the Totodile

[Folio Town - Hidden Grotto]

@Shiny Keldeo@Ninian
Devon followed behind Selena and the other patiently as they made their way through the winding branches of Folio and into the outskirts. Unlike the center parts of the town, not maybe actual buildings seemed to be nestled in the foliage. Very few small shacks or decrepit houses fell in ruin and were quickly being claimed back by nature. The Totodile's head turned once the Bayleef called out that she had found the grotto, with the blue croc swiftly walking inside to look around. It was a very cozy feeling place. A small cave-like area hidden by the plant life with what seemed to be a shrine in the middle. His eyes slowly scrolled around the odd place with a warm smile on his face. "Nice place. It's really peaceful.... "

Ember brought attention to the statue, and Devon wandered over to inspect the tiny stone carving. His deep brown eyes sparkled with curiosity as the sight of the Time Travel Pokémon's image made something tug in the back of his mind. "Celebi...." The young Water-type echoed. Turning around to look at everyone else, he crossed his left arm across his scaled chest and brought the other arm up to tap the side of his head. "I've definitely heard of it before. I remember....Stories about it being really common where I lived. But that's really all I got. Doesn't it normally live in a forest?"

Waving at the Scrafty as he took his leave, the Weavile grunted. "Yeah. You too. Catch ya later Locke."

Alone once again, the thief stood and waited for Locke to get a bit of distance before departing from the hidden location himself with empty bottle and map in hand. Mind set on praying on the bags of non-perceptive locals.

Standing up and stretching his arms above his head, the Weavile nodded. "Yeah sure, why not?" Lowing his arms he paused to toss the now empty bottle up in the air and catch it repeatedly. "I say we just do a bit of work here in town until the mon of the hour makes their appearance. No sense in heading back into that dungeon and fucking around with the frog when we don't need to. Also, let's just keep this possible target info between us. Just to be safe."

Making his way to the small hole in the wall of plants, the Weavile paused for a moment to look over his shoulder with an odd frown. "...Did ya happen to catch who was gonna be showing up today? I know Alias is probably around somewhere doing the moves on some wallets or buttering up some possible rookies. I also heard the boss himself was in town? That true? I could never figure that guy out. Then again that's probably why he runs this show."

"Alot of em? Huh. When I came up, I barely seen any. Then again I practically sprinted through the entire dungeon but still." Holding the bottle by it's base, the Weavile slowly moved it around in a circle. The water inside of it sploshing around quietly. "I hear from the locals that the Town Path portion of that trunk dungeon is pretty safe and there's barely any dungeon Pokémon still living there. Most of em wised up and just moved into the town itself. The influx that you mentioned sorta puts me off...."

Finally, his red eyes focused on Locke standing across from him. "Maybe there's some sort of bigwig coming to visit this dusty shrub? Could explain the big amount of Pokémon down there. And even the Greninja lunatic. Maybe he's their bodyguard that does all the fighting since the client is too cowardly to get their paws dirty."

A somewhat devious smirk played across the Sharp Claw Pokémon's features. "Heh. That actually might be good for us. A rich idiot that doesn't know how to fight? We could totally get the drop on em and nab a score that even the boss'll be impressed by."

Snatching the map in his claws, the Weavile took his arm from the Scrafty's neck and stood up. "Yeah. Thanks for the map."

Walking back to his shady spot in the corner of the structure, the weasel reached an arm behind his back to shuffle something around behind the pillar. A glass corked bottle filled with a clear liquid soon rolled from behind the Weavile and came to rest near Locke's feet. Meanwhile, the Dark-Ice type would be uncorking his own bottle of water. "You can have that if you want. It's hot as fuck up here, and neither of us are gonna make any profit if we're passed out from dehydration."

Taking a sip of the cooling drink, the cat sighed as he glanced up at the other mon present. "So what's this about a psycho frog in the trunk? He jump ya for your cash or something?"
