Just out of curiosity, is there any chance that Scrambles & co. might ever encounter a Sandshrew in the future? It would be fun to see our infamous lord mascot speaking with a line of dialogue. xD

To be honest I specifically intended to leave the story separated from the standard PokéTrivia jokes at first, afraid that they would limit the directions in which the story may go and we would just end up with the same thing all over the place. Probably I'll give it at least a cameo though, sometime.

Ah, well that makes sense! I agree that a cameo might be a better way to handle it, though I can't wait to see what kind of cameo it is! :D

We're back! (I think, maybe.) Anyway, it looks like my schedule for the next month will be less terrible than January so that's a win. I'll try to be less snaily from now on.
So... where were we? I believe you got kidnapped and taken away by helicopter and your party is trying to save you by nearly marrying Jingles and a random Solosis. Helpful.

48. Loading...

Location: Gonji Lakes

"Then what do we do now, Mr. Fluffy?" Puddles asked Scrambles.

"We shall... BOMB THEM DOWN! Meanwhile we stand on a safe distance and they can't counterattack us. It's perfect, flawless!"

"They've escaped, we'll never catch up!"

"Then we aim for their base or wherever they went. Come on, we shouldn't be wasting time here chatting."

Puddles mumbled something about slavery and went off to look for his friends and family to help him gathering projectiles. The outline of the plan sounded great, but Scrambles hadn't specified what to shoot with. Ugh, I should just have staying in my nest this morning.

Ranged assault: what and how?
A: Load a giant catapult with rocks and logs
B: Drop down lots of swamp mud by flying Pokémon
C: Drop down a giant boulder after lifting it with psychic powers
D: Shoot the Pokémon as living cannonballs and infiltrate the base
The next chapter can be expected... sometime, but it won't take an eternity again (hopefully).

The thought of those Pokemon flying through the air like ninjas is just too good to pass up. Plus i'm picturing it with this badass music playing as they take down the enemy :P

Then tell me, Revise, what would you think when you were captured only this morning, taken away from your home, locked in a tiny sphere and forced to rescue this person a few moments later led by a bossy Venonat?

True, true. XD Scrambles IS pretty bossy, haha.

And wait, I thought our trainer was ambiguously gender-neutral this whole time! xD

^Pro ninja right there. XD

Speaking of which, Scrambles and co. will have to be pro ninjas if they hope to infiltrate properly. :P

Location: In the air

"You're saying you had this cannon the whole time and didn't say anything about it?" Jingles was astounded, but quickly turned it into a smile and added: "Sorry, I didn't mean to shout at you, you're really sweet actually."

"You were so busy with your catapult design, I didn't want to ruin it. You didn't even ask about it." Zell explained. "But... are you really going to do this?"

"Yes, we have to. Coming along?"

"Okay sure. ...wait, no! That's dangerous! I'll await your return, darling. Do come back alive!"

...and so it happened that not much later a cannon was aimed at a familiar building nearby, ready to shoot a small party of Pokémon. The helicopter in which their trainer was taken away was standing there in the open on the roof, those guys have guts. One small detail had been overlooked by the four Pokémon though. How are they going to land safely? If only they had a fishing rod...

Tell me, how?
A. Pray.
B. Magic?
C. Pretend to be Transformer robots.
D. They did bring parachutes, right? Right?
E. They aren't.
The next chapter can be expected... sometime. Let's keep it at that.

B. Magic! No question mark needed.

...Well, they do have special attacks, right? Because if so, those pretty much qualify as magic. In the anime, Ash can literally find a use for the most random moves in dire times, so... oh, look. Aurora Beam or Psybeam could do the trick. ;D

First off, that truly was some epic music, so thank you for that

Secondly, I'm going with E mainly because it just seems fitting for the story that they would start out as badasses and then just klutz it all up XD
