Oh...I feel so bad. :(
-The attack was in the Rukongai as the Gotei are trying to keep them from reaching the Seireitei. (I never specified in the post but, to me, it was assumed considering the plot/setting).
-The ground where the battle was would have been charred and reduced to ash, so there wouldn't have been any trace of her. (That was in my post)
Regardless, I'm going to start my next post. You don't have to fix those points if you don't want to. Again, I apologize for my lack of clarity. :(

Time to criticize your writing once more! Hazzah!
But no, it's not your fault. I wasn't too specific. I didn't want my opening post to be more than two pages in word (it was at the end of the second so I stopped).
Just kidding, though.
And Oblivion seems busy with life, so this might be a 1x1 for a while. ;)

Get it together, Limey. What even is your life?
...xP
It was vague, but the war has been going on for a while now. About 100 years (I believe I specified that in the Setting/Plot...but I'm too lazy to go back and look).
A Vasto Lorde is not an Arrancar, it's a type of Menos which is a Hollow. A Vasto Lorde never removed its mask. Harribel was a Vasto Lorde before taking off her mask.
What is Seiretsu? Are you meaning to type Seireitei?
Yasu was not called to fight the VL. It would have been reported to her but she would have only been dispatched if the situation was dire/more Captains died. Since it was the 8th (Information), she was not as equipped in straight combat like another Division (5th). Kuroda was aiming to protect the 8th Captain and return, but that mission failed (but I left that out on purpose). I would have said that Kuroda wanted Yasu to go as well. But Kuroda believed two of the best Captains could at least drive the VL away.
Other information you should know, It's probably going to be a lot busier for Yasu and that she's not going to be able to perform any physical duties herself. The Captains will have a lot of paperwork and organization/training to do during the war.
The Third Division is more in charge of speaking with the Houses, the Sixth would enact decrees and work to fix injustices rather than investigating it, which is what the 8th would do. So the Third discovers there is a problem which is processed through the Eighth and then enacted through the 6th. (This doesn't change your post, just something to consider)
There might be more, but I can't think of it right now. Sorry for the lack of communication. :(

Excellent post, Limey. But I found a time-gap. She would have known a week prior to her being summoned by the CC.
Oh, I wanted to add that I think weather conditions would mix together instead of replace. So if one of your Pokemon were to use Hail, both would be in effect but at a weaker scale. Do you agree with that mechanic?
Yes.
It's, more or less, a guide. If one character is higher at something than the other, then that one would win in that field.
However, due to combat being so dynamic and many tactics used, it's mostly for reference to the player as to what their character is best at and can rely on.
Also, the Talents don't, inherently, do anything. The skills are what make a fighter. The Talents just determine how much skill they can put into something. But there are exceptions. I'll use one of my characters as an example.
Akimoto Taiki
You'll see my stats just as numbers, but they have words which correlate with them.
4: 5, 2
0: 0, 5, 5
5: 0, 5, 5
0: 1, 4
3: 5
So this can translate to the following:
Vast Reiryoku: Legendary Reiatsu, Average Kido Power
Unlearned (yet to learn) Zanjutsu: Poor Offense, Legendary Defense, Legendary Physical Strength
Legendary Hakuda: Poor Offense, Legendary Defense, Legendary Physical Strength
Unlearned Kido: Unremarkable Knowledge, Incredible Intelligence
Master Hoho: Legendary Mobility
So, to me, this means that he focuses on Defense and Power rather than skill at actually attacking deftly. He'll wear his opponents out before striking them with a simple blow (probably shattering them). But just because he "unlearned" Zanjutsu does not make his Legendary Defense and Physical Strength in Zanjutsu any worse. This merely means he does not have any Talent in Zanjutsu and has, thus, worked extra hard to get where he is in Zanjustu. It can indicate he has little-no formal instruction in Zanjutsu or that he merely expelled it from his memory as he doesn't care much about it. This can also be said about someone who has Legendary Offense but unlearned Zanjutsu. Again, this means they lack either the discipline of an artform or have not learned one yet. Regardless, they can still attack with accuracy and lethality.
The way the numbers end up just create more depth for your character. Certain aspects would be cause for ridicule or praise, depending. (For example, with Akimoto, he would be scoffed at for being a Captain with no real talent for a sword but praise that he overcame this and learned how to defend with a sword as well as he can with his hands).
Hope that long-winded response clears things up. :)

Sorry that took so long. I'm a loser. :(
She seemed as showy with her Pokemon as most other trainers. She certainly took pride in them and cared for them. She wanted them to feel special, and they were, considering their position within this tournament. Sebastian would have been considered odd considering his lack of enthusiasm. Some might have believed him too serious to make a show of his Pokemon, others believed he was aloof or just uncaring. For him, it was modesty with a hint of seriousness.
Sebastian chuckled. It seemed Sophia planned to keep on a tactical advantage against him. She'd be surprised how he did with Special weaknesses. "Sunny Wind," he called out plainly to them. He was always one to make up attack names and teach them to his Pokemon as to throw off the opponent if only slightly.
Shiftry shifted its limbs, shaking the leaves upon its arms. His feet thudded into the sand, creating straight lines cutting into the grains. Though it was early-afternoon, the sun began to glow brightly and someone enter the arena in spite of natural physics. The arena heated up and the sun invigorated Shiftry. Meanwhile, Masquerain's eyes glowed a deep purple and from behind her a dark smoke formed. As her wings vibrated the smoke blew forward and created a horrific noise and created frightening images around their opponents. Though her Ominous Wind might not have been native to her, she knew how to make a terrifying presence.

Bah, don't worry about it. Thanks for letting me know, though. ;)
Sorry I haven't been able to post. Been busier than I care to be. I hope to get a post up tomorrow but the soonest I know of will be Wednesday. Again, I'm sorry for the delay.
