    This is a continuation of Pokémon: The Space Shield Crisis. Provided it's okay, simply read the description in the link and read the rules below. The RP will pick up right where it left off with everyone that joined still in the RP.

    Star City, the first major city in outer space. Star City was created by the renowned billionaire industrialist and scientist Profressor Arkane Hartache. A couple decades ago, Professor Hartache went up into space and never came back down. Since then, he has been bringing his dream to life. His daughter, Alicia, was born and raised in Star City, but has always dreamed about seeing Earth and all the people and Pokémon that live there. Both Professor Hartache and Alicia were the only humans that lived in Star City. The rest of the population consisted of robots created by Hartache and helped to build the massive city. Star City lives up to its name, consisting of six colossal domes, each consisting of everything a city has to offer; large tall buildings, streets, walkways, apartment complexes, monorail trains, even parks filled with trees, plants, and lakes. Professor Hartache hoped to open Star City to the public, giving birth to the first community in space, a place consisting of the most advanced technology known.

    However, a sinister organization knows as the Shuttle Gang found out about Star City and their leader, whose name was only known as Mr. Shuttle, arrived at Star City. The Shuttle Gang had large groups of various high-tech robots of their own and proceeded to take control of the space city. They managed to capture and kidnap Alicia. By holding her hostage, they forced Professor Hartache to follow in their plans. Professor Hartache created a weapon of mass destruction, capable of piercing planets, the Solaris Cannon. Mr. Shuttle found out about this weapon and wanted to use its power to hold the world hostage. However, the Solaris Cannon required two pieces of massive energy. This energy was found in 2 Legendary Pokémon of Hoenn, Kyogre, the titan of the sea, and Megoliath, the titan of the forest. Mr. Shuttle already had a plan to capture these two Pokémon to power the Solaris Cannon.

    However, this all happened at the same time Ash and his friends May, Max, Brock, and Erika reached a city in Hoenn shortly after Ash won his fifth Gym Badge and May obtained a Bulbasaur. They had reached Megapol City, where the annual Double Battle Tournament took place. Ash registered, battled, and came out victorious in the small tournament. However, Megapol City was in the vicinity of two sets of ruins where Kyogre and Megoliath were said to appear. Megapol City was attacked by the Shuttle Gang. At this point, Ash and co. got involved in what was happening. Allied by two Trainers Ash met and beat in the Megapol Double Battle Tournament, Jacyen, a male Trainer with a Breloom and Scizor, and Arquette, a female Trainer with a Manectric and Scrubrawl, they set out to follow the Shuttle Gang. They tried to stop them from capturing Kyogre and Megoliath, but it was already too late. Kyogre and Megoliath were captured and taken to the Shuttle Gang's secret base. Ash and friends managed to make it to the volcano base. However, Mr. Shuttle sent three robot birds resembling Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres to stop them while he launched a shuttle carrying Kyogre and Megoliath up into space. Upon destroying the robots, Ash and co. got into another shuttle and headed for Star City themselves.

    Upon exiting the large shuttle station, Ash and friends saw the magnificence of Star City, but they knew what they had to do. They each braved the hazards of Star City and space itself and Ash confronted Professor Hartache, who they thought was behind the whole world domination plan. Hartache fought them in a craft of his, since he still thought his daughter was in danger. Ash managed to defeat him, and May, Max, Brock, Erika, Jacyen, and Arquette, along with Alicia came into the area. At this point, Alicia explained to everyone how it was Mr. Shuttle pulling the strings the whole time. Mr. Shuttle then made himself known to Ash and friends on a large TV screen. He then explained about the Solaris Cannon and how Kyogre and Megoliath's energy powered it up. He then demonstrated its power by firing it on Hoenn. The powerful energy blast hit an area miles from Verdanturf Town, but the blast radius was several miles long. The town barely survived being destroyed. Mr. Shuttle also brought up that at full power, the Solaris Cannon could destroy the entire world. Ash and knew what he had to do.

    Ash went deep into the control center of the Solaris Cannon and confronted Mr. Shuttle, who had Kyogre and Megoliath in massive capsules connected to the Solaris Cannon. He managed to defeat him, but Mr. Shuttle then warped Kyogre and Megoliath to deep within the core of Star City. Suddenly, the entire city shook as Mr. Shuttle proclaimed that if he couldn't have Star City, no one could, and activated a control that would send Star City plummeting towards Earth at an extreme velocity. Ash and friends all want into the core of Star City and managed to make it to the Central Control Computer. However, Mr. Shuttle activated massive robotic versions of Kyogre and Megoliath, known as Cyber Kyogre and Cyber Megoliath, which were created by Professor Hartache to replicate the power of Kyogre and Megoliath for powering up the Solaris Cannon. May and Max ended up fighting Cyber Kyogre and Brock and Erika fought Cyber Megoliath. Upon their defeat, everyone sent out their Pokémon and each one used an attack on the massive mainframe tower in order to shut it down and stop Star City's collision course. However, Mr. Shuttle released the Ultima LRM (Last Resort Machine), Professor Hartache's latest creation. The Ultima LRM had the powers and abilities of Kyogre and Megoliath as well as the Solaris Cannon, and it was pulling Star City along its descent towards Earth. Ash headed out into space using Kyogre and Megoliath to face Ultima LRM in a final battle. Only a distance from the atmosphere, Ash managed to defeat Ultima LRM, which burned up in the atmosphere. By doing so, Star City stopped falling towards the Earth. However, Ash was too close to the atmosphere and seemed to vaporize as well.

    Back on Star City, everyone else thought Ash died along with Kyogre and Megoliath. Even Team Rocket cried over his supposed death. Professor Hartache offered everyone a ride back to Earth, and insisted Alicia come along, so that she could see Earth for the first time. Back on Earth, Alicia was amazed at all the Pokémon she saw. Not only that, but from out in the distance, Ash came back alive and victorious. Kyogre and Megoliath were also seen going back into their domains, the sea for Kyogre and the forest for Megoliath. Mr. Shuttle, who also escaped in a shuttle, was arrested by Megapol's police department, including Officer Jenny. Professor Hartache thanked Ash and friends for helping save Star City as well as the entire world. He also offered them to come to Star City whenever they want once it was opened to everyone. Ash and co. said goodbye to Jacyen and Arquette and headed off on their journey to the Hoenn League.



    1 week after the events of Aloha! Pokémon, Ash and co. are once again off on their journey, this time through Kanto, taking on the Battle Frontier. Back on Star City, the space metropolis is now open to the public and tens of thousands of people have already moved there. On this day, Professor Hartache has made a big announcement to the world. In the wake of the Ralethan alien invasion that nearly destroyed the planet, Hartache has created a new project, which he has called the Space Shield Network. The Space Shield Network consists of several arrays of satellites, each armed with super lasers to repel alien invaders from Earth. He also plans to include the Solaris Cannon as part of the project and concludes that the Space Shield will protect both everyone on Star City as well as everyone around the world.

    However, there are some people who think that such a powerful network of satellites could be used for terror and ransom. As it turns out, there was a break-in at the Megapol Maximum Security Prison, and someone escaped! That person was Mr. Shuttle. The people that broke them out just turned out to be Butch and Cassidy of Team Rocket! On the same day as the launch of the Space Shield Network, an armada of space shuttles approaches Star City. Star City Control picks up the signals from the shuttle fleet. Suddenly, someone from within the main shuttle presses a button, and Star City Control is overridden. The entry doors of the shuttle dock open and the shuttles dock. Once the entry doors close, we see two figures exit the main shuttle. The figures happen to be Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, and Mr. Shuttle, the leader of the Shuttle Gang. Once they exit, countless dozens of Team Rocket grunts, Shuttle Gang soldiers, as well as robots for both organizations, come out of the shuttles. Step 1 of their plan is complete.

    Mr. Shuttle presses a remote control device. Then, both Team Rocket and the Shuttle Gang head out of the shuttle station into the city. Back in Automation Tower, Professor Hartache receives word of the breach of Star City Control and sees the invaders making their way into Star City. He than activates the city's defense robots to stop Team Rocket and the Shuttle Gang. However, there is no response. As it turns out, the device Mr. Shuttle activated took control of Star City's robots. Realizing that Star City is under attack, Hartache orders an emergency evacuation of the city. Alarms sound throughout the city as people star making their way across the streets and sidewalks to the space ferry stations, where several space ferries, enough for everyone on Star City, are ready to transport people back to Earth. The ferries take off and leave Star City. It looks like everyone made it off.

    However, before Professor Hartache and Alicia even have a chance to leave Automation Tower, Heavy Walkers and Artificial Chaos enter the tower and surround both of them. Giovanni and Mr. Shuttle enter the area and tell Hartache that the Space Shield Network is now under their control. Back on Earth, everyone is doing their usual thing as suddenly every TV, radio, cellphone, and any other electronic device around the world get this transmission from Giovanni and Mr. Shuttle. They announce that they now have control of the Space Shield Network, and they plan to use it to make the entire planet surrender. Giovanni tells the world they have 24 hours to surrender or else they will use one of the Space Shield satellites to target and destroy a random city. They will obliterate another city every hour on the hour after that. Also, if there is still no declaration of defeat is made, Mr. Shuttle brings up that he might just fire the Solaris Cannon on the planet! They also threaten to fire the satellites early if anyone tries to stop them. The world is in a state of emergency.

    However, POCE, or the Peacekeeping Organization of Commanding Elites, has already devised a plan to stop Team Rocket and the Shuttle Gang. The POCE Commander has already talked with the President of the World Alliance and the plan is to be executed as soon as possible. They have already organized a squad of elite POCE soldiers to head up to Star City and advert the crisis. They have also decided to recruit several skilled Pokémon Trainers from all over to assist POCE in stopping the Rockets and Shuttle Gang soldiers. They have also decided to recruit an expert scientist in the field of inventions and technology to help out the rescue squad. This man's name is Professor Pine. There is only one problem, though. Just days before the launch of the Space Shield Network, Professor Pine announced that he lost faith in humanity and has exiled himself into total seclusion. Another part of the mission is to head to his private island and convince him to help out.

    You are either a POCE Soldier or Pokémon Trainer drafted into saving the world. You have been given instructions to either head up to Star City and stop Team Rocket and the Shuttle Gang and rescue Professor Hartache and Alicia, or make your way to Professor Pine's Island and try to convince him to help you out. Professor Pine doesn't trust the military, so only Pokémon Trainers are allowed to go and rescue him. Also, POCE has made a contingency plan provided we fail. If Star City is not liberated within 24 hours, the military will launch several tactical nuclear devices at Star City, destroying it, and anyone on it. This is a race against time.

    RP requirements:
    2 Elite POCE Soldiers
    2 Regular POCE Soldiers
    At least 4 Regular Trainers

    Current list of open spaces and people selected:
    2/2 Elite POCE Soldiers (Sunflorazumarill, Chibi-Chan)

    - No Psychic powers
    - No anthromorphs/hybrids
    - No special powers
    - Don't worry about air when you're out in space. For some reason, it's possible to breathe in the outer space areas of Star City and jump higher. This may be due to some oxygen system in these areas.
    - Not to be rude, but if you go for a week without posting in this RP, I'll PM you and tell you to please post. If I end up failing to post in here for a week, you're allowed to PM me and tell me to post again.

    RP AREAS

    Now in this RP, there are several sections to Star City that you may head through. Some places aren't accessible without certain things. You're also free to add your own areas to Star City.

    Space Metropolis: This is the "main" of Star City. It consists of tall buildings, streets, sidewalks, high walkways, and even building link tunnels, all technologically advanced. However, with the exception of Team Rocket and Shuttle Gang agents, their robots, and robots belonging to Star City, this place is deserted.

    Starlight Park: Starlight Park is a magnificent park found in the center of the first main level dome of Star City. There is green grass, beautiful flowers, tall trees, a scenic lake, a picnic area, and even many wild Pokémon make their home here. This could serve as a place to rest when necessary.

    Electrochemical Reactor: This is Star City's main power plant. The Electrochemical Reactor is a highly advanced facility. Green fluid, which is actually concentrated energy, flows throughout the plant's multiple levels. There is also a reactor cooling system consisting of an orange, but harmless liquid. There are also 3D holographic maps of the facility found in various areas of the facility. Due to the massive energy output of the plant, floating energy fireballs are found throughout the plant. There are also energy storage tanks in which energy will rise upward. The Electrochemical Reactor can be found in the second main level dome of the city.

    Star Gardens: Star Gardens is an area of apartment complexes and condos found at the edge of the second mid level dome. This community has everything there is for such a place, parking lots, a public pool, and a playground. It even includes such things as a small miniature golf field. There is also a sewer system directly beneath this place that can be accessed through grates in the parking lots.

    Space Shuffle: This place happens to be located out in one of the outer space areas of Star City that can be accessed from the first mid level dome (the dome containing the shuttle dock). Here, there are four parts to this place.

    Meteor Center: This place consists of a colossal hollowed-out meteor, which contains raised metallic platforms, drilling towers, glass floors, and large lunar vehicles. There are also massive metal boxes and meteors containing machine pieces. The center of this section contains a large, skeletal, steel tower in a high raised section. There are also doors on the side of the tower's platform and a launching cannon within the tower to take you to the Solrock Planet.

    Solrock Planet: As the name implies, this is a large planetoid shaped like a Solrock and happens to have its own gravitational pull, meaning once you land here it may be hard to get off. There are large green crystals growing here as well as pipelines and sealed fans on the surface. There is also a monorail going along a floating path around the planetoid. There are floating platforms to get you up onto the monorail. There is a small tower on top of the planet with a launching cannon to get you off the planetoid and to the Lunatone Planet.

    Lunatone Planet: This planetoid is shaped like a Lunatone, but does not have a gravitational pull. There are platforms located all around the planetoid as well as another monorail train going around the planet. There are more green crystals growing here, but there are also red, glowing meteors that seem to explode when something goes near them. On the planetoid's nose is yet another launching cannon to take you up to the Space Platform.

    Space Platform: This is a large platform located at the top of the area. There is a raised section in the center with a floating monorail line, which two platforms move along. On the raised section is a colossal box in the center. The main section of the platform has glass floors and doors leading down to a lower section. The lower section leads to the setup of platforms and large cargo containers surrounding the main platform. In the corner of the platform setup is one with a meteor cannon overlooking a small field of meteors. The cannon can be aimed at the field and can break the meteors with meteors of its own.

    Star Flight: Star Flight is found in one of the outer space areas of Star City and is accessible from the first mid level dome. This place consists of walkways and platforms of all kinds. There are platforms that move left and right, platforms that flip, walkways that constantly spin, turntable platforms, and turning bridges. Arrays of large, quad laser cannons are also set up throughout this area and will fire onto any intruder. There is also a massive wall here called the Space Wall, which is lined with laser fences and must be approached upward.

    Cosmic Highway: Cosmic Highway is also found in the space sectors of Star City. It can be reached from the second mid level dome and is the only way to reach the transport station to the highest dome. Here, there are more walkways, solar platforms, and mini-space stations. There is also a neat transport device here called the Light Platform, which floats in midair in front of a gate. Once the platform is stepped on, lasers close off the gate and a path of light appears beneath the platform. After a 3, 2, 1 countdown, the platform goes shooting off into space. The path of light travels beneath the platform as it passes by platforms on which floating laser cannons float over and laser fences are stationed along some of the paths. There is also a section called the Rainbow Rails, where eight rail lines in red, orange, yellow, green, teal, blue, indigo, and violet colors serve as a transport further through the area.

    Techno Gadget: Techno Gadget is what is referred to the network of underground tunnels and facilities beneath Star City. There is a large underground river flowing through the center of this place that serves as part of the city's cooling system. There are also pools and rivers of green concentrated energy flowing throughout the complex. The most noticeable thing about this place in that there are devices called Gravity Gates, that when you pass through one, the gravity setting changes to the direction that the arrows are pointing in. You'll sometimes end up on the ceiling or even the walls of this place.

    Astro Platform: The Astro Platform is basically a large platform located in outer space. This place can be reach via a shuttle from the second main level dome and is mainly used for Pokémon battles. The platform is divided into 100 large squares in a 10-by-10 grid, but the panels constantly move and switch places. There is also a field of laser fences here to make battle more interesting as well as a meteor cannon in each corner of the platform.

    Cosmic Gadget: Cosmic Gadget is yet another outer space area consisting of long paths and walkways, this time, going in all directions; straight, left, right, even upside down and sideways. You can reach this place through the first mid level dome and will head though this place on a hoverboard. There are more Gravity Gates here that change the gravity to suit the paths here. There is also a space monorail train going along a line of rails in all these directions. There is also another hazard here; devices called Gravity Capsules. These are set along the paths and are programmed to change the gravity in pre-set directions.

    Space Plant: The Space Plant is a massive space station factory located in one of the outer space sections of Star City. Here, the place is cluttered with large space station pieces and inactive mini-satellites. It's best to be careful, though, since there are pools on concentrated energy in this facility as well as a hall where meteor cannons lock-on and shoot at you. There are also more Gravity Capsules that can take your exploration of the plant upside down or on the walls as well as gravity tubes that send you to the roof. The roof of the factory is a large launch pad where space shuttles constantly launch themselves. It's best to stay out of the launch bays and keep to the trenches here. You can reach the Space Plant via a shuttle in the second main level dome.

    Laser Station: This is a research facility designed for various purposes. Everywhere you look there are lasers of all sizes and colors shooting from the large walls that make up each corridor-like area of the place. The paths here consist of large tube-like walkways that snake throughout the station. There are also laser defenses here that may hinder your progress. Upon reaching a platform lift, you can head into the inner structure of the station, which contains of 4 large mazes. Maze 1 consists of square rooms with rainbow colored laser walls and switches. Maze 2 is laser posts that frequently switch laser barriers. Maze 3 is a pinball course that uses rainbow lasers instead of pinballs and rainbow mirrors to reflect the lasers throughout the table, which must be moved around in order for the lasers to hit same-colored switches behind glass walls. Maze 4 is a wall maze with energy panels from which large lasers shoot upward. Reaching a mini-space station in Cosmic Gadget in the only way to make it to the Laser Station.

    Space Deck: The Space Deck consists of four large deck platforms each located above the other. Each deck has a different set of puzzles needed to reach the next deck. Deck 1 is a maze of electrical barriers that switch on and off by switch pads located throughout the platform. Deck 2 is a maze of metallic panels and switches that flip the panels allowing progress through the maze. Deck 3 is a glass wall maze, which is divided up into several parts, which can move up, down, switch places with other maze pieces, and even flip upside down. Deck 4 is a 3-dimensional maze of fences and solar panels, which go out in all directions. In addition to the numerous mazes here, there are also electromagnetic storms that Professor Hartache has managed to create that surge through the area. The area's OS system gives a warning about the storms 1 minute in advance, allowing you to reach a safe zone in time. The only way to reach the Space Deck is to hitch a ride on a shuttle from the Space Plant.

    Star Maze: The Star Maze is a complex assortment of mazes and puzzles that consist of almost every gadget and hazard found within or around Star City and can only be reached from the Astro Platform. There are paneled walkways and platforms that make up the means of making it through the maze. There are metal platforms which large electromagnets can pull or repel across large expanses of space, laser shields that reflect any attack used against them, large solar panels that sit flat or on the side, speed tubes that allow quick travel through the area, mazes of laser fences, electric barriers that can be turned on and off, metal panels that can be flipped, moving and flipping maze pieces, climbable fences that sprawl out in all directions, and Gravity Capsules that allow you to go across sideways and upside down paths. There are also floating, diamond-shaped generators in which energy and circuitry can be seen flowing throughout. By using an attack on a generator, the polarity of magnets can be reversed, laser shields can rise or fall, solar panels can have their orientation changed, the direction of transport tubes can be changed, electrical barriers can be switched on or off, and metal panels can be flipped. In the center of the maze is a small station containing a transport pod that can be used to reach the transport station leading to the highest dome of Star City.

    Meteor Base: This place may look like a massive meteor on the outside, but on the inside, there is a large laboratory complex. This place has a little history to it. Professor Hartache's wife, Yuriko Hartache, was working on a project here. However, there was an accident in the lab, and Yuriko was killed. Professor Hartache ended up shutting down the project and sealing the laboratory after this tragic incident. This place happens to be an elaborate facility consisting of corridors and large rooms composed of glass-and-steel floors, walls, and ceilings. Some parts of the complex have large windows that show space or the surface of the meteor. Hazards and defense systems that are still active here include laser grids, force fields, reactive doors, floating cannons, energy pools, and spheres that have their own gravitational pull, called Gyro Balls. There are also large, square rooms lined with large, reflective panels where lasers are generated between two surfaces and move around freely. Also, the only thing left here are the guard robots. We don't know if Team Rocket or the Shuttle Gang know anything about this facility, or if they have any use for it, but someone may have to make their way through here in this quest. A shuttle from the Star Maze can take you to this laboratory.

    Cosmic Flower: This place happens to be a large mechanical garden found within the stabilizer net area of Star City. Here, there is a center where enormous plants, fruits, and vegetables are grown and serves as an organic food system for the people of Star City. The robotic plants, however, are designed to drive out intruders from the biosphere-like facility. There are also a few large mazes and high speed warp tubes found in this area that lead to other parts of the "Flower". To make things worse, systems of various Star City robots guard the plants grown here and don't respond nicely to intruders.

    Star Database: The Star Database happens to be Star City's entire information bank. This massive facility consists of a colossal chamber in which data is kept on a unique medium. This medium is massive multi-story tall cyber reels in which countless amounts of data are kept. These data-reels run throughout the entire complex, making various turns and passing through sensory checkpoints. There are walkways and paths going throughout and in between the large data-reels. There is also a Gravity Gate system to be found here as well as a complex in which there is a supercomputer linked to the data reels. Through this supercomputer, you can control the flow and direction of any of the data-reel sets as well as check the data contained between two checkpoints. The information encoded onto the data-reel piece can be clicked on and accessed like if it was a webpage. This place is located directly beneath Automation Tower.

    Automation Tower: Automation Tower can be called the City Hall of Star City. It's a tall and high-tech tower climbing hundreds and hundreds of feet into the air. Inside the tower happens to be a massive system of traps and robots designed to repel any intruder. There are two sections to the tower, an outer section consisting of tunnels, corridors, and chambers. Such hazards in the outer section include conveyor belts, laser fences, and more energy pools. There is also a laser maze and an energy storage tank in which the energy will quickly rise. The inner section is a massive shaft lined with massive girders in which electricity constantly flows downward. There are walkways, conveyor belts, and laser fences found here. For location, Automation Tower is located in the center of the highest dome in Star City.

    Final Cannon: This is the secret control center of the Solaris Cannon, located beneath the lowest dome in Star City. This facility spirals downward through tunnels and large chambers. Security is tight here, and waves of Star City's defense robots flood the place. There are also more conveyor belts, laser fences, and green energy pools. There is also a dark corridor in where powerful lasers constantly fire downward on conveyor belts. The final chamber before the Solaris Cannon is armed with large laser cannons and will fire on anyone who enters.

    Central Core: This is the center core structure; which powers the whole of Star City. Here, a network of tunnels and chambers situated over the fusion core below contain time gates, which freeze time for whoever passes through it for 10 seconds, allowing them to pass through the area's full laser walls. There are also large blocks with arrows on them moving through and out through the walls in some areas. Passing through a time gate can allow someone to use these as stepping stones. The place is also fortified by a ton of defense robots, green energy pools, orange liquid pools, trap doors, laser wall mazes, and large power lasers that are the width of entire tunnels. Beyond all those is the Central Control Computer, the central hub of Star City. The Central Control Computer area is protected by several systems of massive, rainbow-colored energy containment rings, the strongest force field known to man, and will take every character in this RP to disable each one.

    Pine's Island: Pine's Island is the only non-Star City locale in this RP. Pine's Island is located somewhere in the Sevii Islands and is where Professor Pine went into seclusion. He has guarded the place with a network of traps, including hidden laser fences, machine guns, and missile launchers. There is also an auotmated laser cannon stationed on top of Pine's compound that can and will target and fire at anyone who trespasses in the inner part of the island.

    ROBOTS AND HAZZARDS

    In this RP, you'll be faced with several robots. All of these belong to Team Rocket, the Shuttle Gang, or Star City. POCE also has its own selection of mechs, but they're on our side and can help us in out mission.

    POCE ROBOTS AND CRAFTS

    POCE Drones: These are relatively small robots that are the color navy and have four X-shaped wings and a weapon on the bottom. This weapon varies and can either be a regular gun, a machine gun, or a missile launcher. They can also be equipped with a high-tech surveillance camera called a holo-scanner, which emits a holographic wall of light that seeks out enemies. If one is found, more POCE robots appear for resistance. (This is an automated robot and cannot be chosen as a mech.)

    POCE Gunners: These are green-colored, human-like battle robots that are armored and carry various weapons. Such weapons include machine guns, bazookas, missile launchers, and laser rifles. (This is an automated robot and cannot be chosen as a mech.)

    POCE Tanks: These aren't entirely tanks, but white/silver colored heavy robots with armor plating, tank treads, a turning middle section, and a turning head. The weapons they use are either dual gattling guns or dual rocket launchers. (This is an automated robot and cannot be chosen as a mech.)

    POCE Jets: Jets are light indigo in color and have some sort of a rectangular arrow shape and have wings for flight. They can use one of three weapons; dual machine guns, dual missile launchers, or dual laser guns. (This is an automated robot and cannot be chosen as a mech.)

    POCE Blader: The POCE Blader is a manned hovercraft that is blue in color. This is equipped with dual machine guns and is protected by a large, circular blade ring that spins around the mech. The blade ring can even flip constantly around the mech, deflecting most attacks, and can be shot towards a foe and then return to the craft. To make visualizing these easier, POCE Bladers resemble crafts of the same design used by Syndrome's minions in the movie The Incredibles. Only four of these are issued for this mission.

    POCE Walker: The POCE Walker is a large, manned walking mech that is red in color. Its features include, a gattling gun and ability to hover. Only four of these are issued for this mission.

    POCE Carrier: The POCE Carrier is the same as the POCE Walker, except it's yellow in color and instead of a gattling gun, the Carrier has 2 heavy missile launchers on the shoulders. Only four of these are issued for this mission.

    Swift Fearow: The Swift Fearow is a manned foldable mech resembling the Verotechs from Robotech. In the standing position, the craft can fire dual gattling guns from its arms. In the jet position, the Swift Fearow can fire missile batteries and also use a lock-on laser. Only an elite POCE Soldier is allowed to pilot one of these and there is only 1 available. (There will only be two elites, one of which is myself.)

    Heavy Skarmory II: The Heavy Skarmory II is a cylindrical craft that consists of 8 quad missile launchers on the top half, a particle beam cannon on the bottom half, and hover mines. The craft also has these features, proton torpedoes, an electron pulse, and a neutron laser. Only an elite POCE Soldier is allowed to pilot this. (This is already taken by myself.)

    STAR CITY ROBOTS

    Artificial Chaos: These are liquid lifeforms supposed to be based off of an ancient Water Pokémon. Professor Hartache has succeeded in creating four elemental variations of these. They can split into smaller cells and extend their arms to attack. They can use other attacks as well. Also, the liquid bodies of these sentries deflect all attacks. Only the head of the Artificial Chaos is vulnerable. Here are the different kinds:

    Ice Chaos: These have a freezing blue liquid body, which ice steam can be seen emitting from. They fire frigid Ice Beams that'll freeze anything they touch.

    Fire Chaos: These have a searing red liquid body, which hot steam can be seen emitting from. They fire a powerful Flamethrower that burns any foe.

    Solar Chaos: These have a glowing green liquid body, which solar energy is constantly being stored. They charge up and fire a large Solarbeam that can obliterate anything they hit.

    Thunder Chaos: These have a flashing yellow liquid body, which electricity is being generated. They'll fire Thunderbolts that spread out and can take out multiple foes at once.

    Heavy Walker: Heavy Walkers are larger defense robots that resemble the R-2 (if that's its name) from Robocop 2. These tank-like robots are equipped with dual spiral chain-guns, which can also flip over to cluster bomb launchers. They can also use leg thrusters to hover in the air.

    Attack Cube: The whole of Space Shuffle is guarded by large cubes called Attack Cubes. These cubes come in red, orange, yellow, green, teal, blue, indigo, and violet colors. They can turn sides and move up down, right, left, forward, and back. Each side has a certain array of weapons and the weapons vary. The weapons are machine guns, missile launchers, laser cannons, pulse powered neutron neutralizers, electricity emitters, and rail guns.

    Laser Block: Laser Blocks make up the defenses in or around the Laser Station. They are square and have a laser emitter on each side. They roll through the air ahead of you and line up to create laser barriers, traps, and even mazes. Laser Blocks are indestructible.

    Laser Disc: These are relatively small circular U.F.O. shaped devices found within the Laser Station and fire lasers from three levels. The bottom lasers shoot blue laser beams from four sides and spin around. The middle lasers shoot green laser bursts in sixteen directions. The top laser locks-on to the target, then fires a red laser charge that explodes upon impact. Destroying the middle of the drone destroys it altogether.

    Hover Launcher: Hover Launchers are large drones that hover high in the air throughout the Space Deck and Star Maze. They have two sets of triple cannons. The top cannons fire missiles that lock-on to their targets, the middle cannons fire laser beams that have a massive range, and the bottom cannons fire meteors and explode upon impact.

    Meteor Bomb: Meteor Bombs are large robots that resemble meteorites. Each of their sides open up to reveal a robotic panel from which automatic guns fire rapid streams of small meteors from. Meteor Bombs move around by rolling and their space rock shell is thick and makes destroying them difficult… if it weren't for the fact that Meteor Bombs can also make themselves self-destruct. The resulting explosion has a massive range and spreads meteor shrapnel over a large distance. These hazards are found in the Space Deck and Star Maze.

    Wire Satellite: These are semi-small satellite-shaped robots that fire strings of energy wires from each of their six panel wings. They can create electrical webs that shock to the touch and can hinder your progress. The wires draw and absorb any kind of electrical attack and thus require other means of disabling them. Wire Satellites are found within the Star Maze.

    Surveillance Drone: These are similar to Wire Satellites, except they have six powerful light sensors that are used to detect intruders. If someone is caught within a one of the light beams, the light paralyzes them and makes them unable to move. Not only that, the sensor lights alerts several various robots to your presence, which teleport in right away. Also, the Surveillance Drone can deploy small computer chips that create an "invisible" fence from which you cannot escape. To make matters worse, these robots are equipped with a cube-shaped shield that deflects all attacks. The only thing you can do is avoid these drones altogether, which are found within the Star Maze.

    Electro Tracker: Electro Trackers are robots composed of various shaped polygons that make the shape of a jet. They have the ability to enter and exit cyberspace through a system of cyber capsules and are capable of firing three different kinds of energy beams. The first is a yellow light wave that can short circuit electronics and other technology, the second is a red heat wave that can easily melt through various kinds of metal and the third is a green radio wave that can disrupt electronic signals and data. They can also fire energy balls and activate virtual shields that guard them from all kinds of attacks. While found in a few other places with computer systems and capsules for them to use, Electro Trackers mainly protect the huge sheet-like cyber databases found in the digital-like Star Database.

    Nuclear Component: These are robots similar to Electro Trackers, except they aren't cyber-like and are more blocky than their semi-digital counterparts. They bear a little resemblance to an atom and are equipped with weapons that reflect the parts of an atom. Their primary weapon is small proton charges that they fire onto you. Their second weapon consists of small probes that lengthen and create a square barrier of electron beams to prevent your escape. Their final weapon happens to be a neutron wave that they charge up and unleash along the ground. These robots are found among the mechanical garden and maze systems of Cosmic Flower and also look after the digital storage units of the Star Database. As a final warning, Nuclear Components can combine with Electro Trackers to create a much more powerful automation.

    Gravity Accelerators: These are hovering robots found within various areas. They are cubic octagonal in shape and also have six long turrets, one on each square side. There are also two octagonal rings wrapping around the main part of the mech midway through the turrets. Gravity Accelerators have a gravity core unit in the center of them, allowing them to manipulate the gravity around them (just like Gravity Man in Mega Man 5). They can also fire gravity blasts from the turrets that do the same thing to whatever they hit. The turrets can also switch over to and fire powerful plasma charges in all six directions. Also, Gravity Accelerators have built-in particle accelerators (within the rings) that create particle fields that can pull you and anything else within the range of the field towards them.

    Defense Fortress: The Electrochemical Reactor's core is guarded by the Defense Fortress, a large structure linked to the reactor, and consisting of numerous machine guns, missile launchers, neutron neutralizers, automated railguns, and a large laser tower in the center. This system can regenerate its weapons and will only go down once the laser is destroyed.

    Super Attack Cube: The large box on the Space Platform happens to contain a larger, multi-colored version of the Attack Cube called the Super Attack Cube, which has red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet sides and carries powerful weapons including large gattling guns, multi missile launchers, linked laser beams, neutron neutralizer dishes, electrical fields, and rail gun batteries. The Super Attack Cube can even switch these weapons at will.

    Laser Jet: The Laser Jet is a large jet-shaped spaceship that use a huge assortment of lasers. Its main weapon is a large super laser on the front, which takes time to charge up. It also has twelve dual laser cannons that fire laser blasts and can flip over to solid laser (beam) cannons. The craft also has two large wings that can deploy laser fences, which open up and come straight at you. The Laser Jet guards the area referred to as Star Flight.

    Mega Chaos: This happens to be a massive, rainbow-colored Chaos that is found somewhere in the Meteor Base. It has a large shielded head and an octagonal-shaped core in its center. It uses attacks from all the other Chaos variations as well as massive tendrils that it can lash out at you. Attacks used on it will push the blue/red/green/yellow liquid back to expose the core. When the core is hit, the Chaos will explode into a bunch of regular Chaos of various elements. As more regular Chaos are destroyed, the Mega Chaos grows smaller. When exposed, the core will also fire blue, red, green, and yellow laser beams, each with various effects.

    Space Genesis: The Space Genesis happens to be a massive attack fortress hovering around the Cosmic Flower area. This center is fortified with advanced defense systems and houses hundreds of Star City robots. The mech consists of a center area with a raised head in the center and has four large, detachable arms where dozens of proton missile launcher arrays reside. There are four electron laser cannons on the bottom of the main hub of the Genesis and the core itself fires a neutron pulse at intruders. The large arms also open up to deploy such mechs as Laser Discs, Hover Launchers, Wire Satellites, and Nuclear Components. If one were to get on top of the Space Genesis, a particle beam cannon on the raised head will activate and fire on the person. It even has a powerful anti-matter cannon that it will use. Destroying this enormous robot will prove a mighty task.

    Atomic Complex: This is another powerful robot that protects the Cosmic Highway area. Octagonal in shape, the Atomic Complex is composed of five different sections, each with its own weapons. The first section uses laser turrets and plasma cannons, and also has a thick shield that absorbs electricity, lasers, and plasma, then fires it back at twice the power. The second part has electrical generators that create large, flowing fields of electricity and the same plasma cannons as the first part. The third section has large ring beam dishes that send out large beams of energy rings and more laser turrets. The fourth section consists of various energy bomb launchers and plasma cannons once again. The final section carries more laser turrets, large light arrays, and the mech's most destructive weapon, a powerful ion cannon.

    Now that everything's settled, it's time for signups for this RP. More may be added to this post as time progresses.

    Jae was flying on Flygon above the forest, she laughed as flygon swooped high and low. "Whoa, slow down a bit flygon!" She called laughing. She was in a good mood, she was out on her own in the world alone, but she was free and allowed to show she could protect herself.

    Flygon smiled slowling slightly and twirled in the air over the river and landed on solid ground. Jae climbed off coughing a little pale, "that was a little too dramatic." She said sitting on the soft grass.
     
    Jae, you're accepted! Due to time, though, you're already on the shuttle. You can join us when we reach Star City, which should be after this post.

    T-Minus 22:25:00

    Out in space, the shuttle has already cleared the atmosphere. As they wait to reach their destination, Nived and Topaz decide to talk a little more about the mission at hand.

    "Nived, didn't Team Rocket say that if anyone tries to intervene, they'll start firing the satellites early?"

    "Yeah, but this baby has major stealth built in! In fact, if they can pick us up, we deserve to lose!"

    "Deserve to lose?! Now you're getting too overconfident! I hope you know what you're doing!"

    "Of course I do! I've taken the shuttle simulations, let's say, 20 times already! At least I don't trust my weapon in the hands of a sunflower!"

    "Hey! That was only one time and at least she shot down that helicopter... after shooting towards you 30 times."

    "You know, I wish I got that machine gun/rocket launcher/grappling net/TV/PC/video phone/fax machine/microwave oven combo gun they advertised on TV several weeks ago! I could have watched the World Pokémon Report on the way!"

    "Uh, shouldn't you be watching for when we reach Star City?"

    "Why is that, my dear Topaz?"

    "Because I think we're nearing it now!"

    Star City starts to come into view. As the near closer to the space city, Nived presses a button on the shuttle control panel and a segment flips over to show a device panel with a small video screen. He presses on the screen. The doors of the massive shuttle dock leading into Star City start to open.

    "Well, we're finally here! Time to go blast us some Rockets!"

    The shuttle lands inside the station and latches onto a passenger corridor. Everyone has finally reached Star City.

    'Oh look, theres a Pokemon Center, Lets get you checked up' he said exictedly

    Not much, my first time of RP i suppose....
     
    _mew_, you're accepted! You're already on your way to Pine's Island as well!

    T-Minus 22:20:00

    As the shuttle docks in the Star City station, Nived, Topaz, and anyone else with them head out of the shuttle. After making their way through the passenger corridor, everyone takes an elevator down to the central level of the station, which is much like an airport or train station center. There are even things such as restaraunts, stores, and plaza tables. Everyone takes a look around the place.

    "Well, if we want to eat or shop, we might as well do it now!"

    "Topaz, now's not the time for that! We have less than 22 1/2 hours to stop Team Rocket and the Shuttle Gang!"

    "Well (giggles), that's not stopping Noah from trying to get some McDonalds!"

    "Hello?! I'd like a Big Mac, a large fry, and a Coke! Is anyone there?!"

    "Noah, this place has been evacuated! There's no one to serve you your food!"

    "Well, I could always look behind the counter and pick up some grub there!"

    A blue glow surrounds Noah and pulls him back to everyone else. The glow is coming from Nived's Metagross.

    "Like I said, we have a mission, and you can either sit here and do nothing or you can come with us!"

    "I could have just used Venomoth or Metang for that."

    "All right, let's move out!"

    Everybody exits the shuttle station and looks at Star City. The buildings reach hundreds of feet in the air and the glass-like road extends for possibly miles. High above the city, the top of the clear dome encasing the area can be seen. There are also capsule-shaped video phone booths on the sidewalks and semi-futuristic cars with the ability to hover and fly litter the road, probably due to the fact that people had to exit them during the evacuation.

    "Wow! What a place this is! I might move here myself someday!"

    "Hey?! What's Noah doing?!" -Tsubasa

    Noah just happens to be next to a small vending machine robot asking for a drink.

    "What is your selection?" -Robot

    "Can I have some Pika Soda? -Noah

    "Noah?! What did I say about the mission?!"

    "What, I was thirsty! (opens his can of Pika Soda) Is that illegal here?!" -Noah

    "What am I going to do with you? (to everyone else) Before we get going, I should send some sentries!"

    Nived gets out a handheld device and turns it on. Many features appear on the screen of the device.

    "Let's see here. Graphing caculator, video games, internet connection, GPS map, portable TV, here we go. Robot activation. Now let's see, POCE Gunner, POCE Tank, POCE Jet, ah! Here, POCE Drone! How many?"

    "How much longer?"

    "Topaz, time is of the essence. Activate 8 POCE Drones. Holo-scanners? Yes."

    Suddenly, from our of the shuttle station, 8 POCE Drones equipped with holo-scanners on the bottom fly into the scene.

    "All right! These sentry drones will go scope out the area for us and let us know what we're up against!"

    The POCE Drones fly out into the city to scope out any dangers ahead. Nived keeps watch on them with his multi-purpose hand device.
     
    I'll pick one of the gym leaders in my Pokemon fanfic... (let me see, I'll remove his made-up Pokemon--too bad, one of them really suited him, change the region to Hoenn, and...)

    **Oh and another thing I noticed: You mentioned two Pokemon in that first post that I never heard of before... (Megoliath and Scrubrawl) Are those D/P Pokemon or did you make them up?

    **Yet another: In the original version of this RPG, the link to Aloha Pokemon doesn't work--it says the thread doesn't exist.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Name: Edwin Tasselbury (aka Lupin)
    Age: 23
    Region: Hoenn
    Class: POCE Soldier
    Destination: Star City I suppose, because Professor Pine will only let ordinary trainers visit him...
    Weapon: Some weapon called Volbeat's Nightmare. It looks sort of like a sword with a retractable antenna instead of a blade. When this "antenna" is extended, it formulates a certain electrical charge, making this weapon act sort of like a lightsaber. (Yeah sorry, this RPG reminded me of Star Wars for a moment)
    Mech: Something called the Haunter Nightcraft. It is named so because it kind of looks like a Haunter, and it has extendable batlike wings that can make it truly intimidating. A pretty neat scooter-like mechanism, perfect for space flight. (I'm kind of ripping off Kirby Air Ride here, but...)
    Personality: Lupin has an affinity for the dark side of life, that which is little-known and even feared. He also likes to defy rules or laws, to the black market is one of his favourite places, and going on secret missions is a much enjoyed pastime. Usually he likes to do things alone, but that doesn't mean he's antisocial. In most cases, he does enjoy hanging out with other people. However, he is definitely not Brock. He seems to speak more openly to guys than girls, but other than that he doesn't judge much of anything by gender. But even though he tends to ignore girls more for the most part, he doesn't feel this way with female Pokemon, having a few of his own. Speaking of Pokemon, Lupin loves Pokemon that are or could be Dark-type. His favourite Pokemon are... well, the ones he has. He doesn't like Pokemon that are too plain (like Rattata and Pidgey), Fighting Pokemon (except Mankey and Meditite), baby Pokemon (especially Togepi and Azurill), and Pokemon that love sunlight (especially Sunflora). And Pokemon battles are the one case in which he always follows the rules.
    Appearance: He's about 5'5" tall and has dark brown eyes. His hair is also dark brown and slightly wavy and rugged-looking, and falls down to about his shoulders. He wears a gray T-shirt, a black leather jacket, dark blue jeans that are fairly tight, and dark brown shoes.
    History: Lupin has been all over the place in his life, and met up with some interesting people along the way. First of all, he was born in Kanto (Lavender Town, to be exact) and was raised in an orphanage. While he was still a little boy there, he was friendly with the other boys there, but he was often teased by his friends for liking a certain girl who seemed to be dressed like a Kirlia. He really did like her because she was different than the others. Her name was Kelsey, and she knew about Pokemon from other regions like Hoenn, where her favourite Pokemon Kirlia was from. She also knew someone who could use psychic powers--very interesting indeed. However, she wasn't a very happy girl, as she said she was under a curse by her great-grandmother. For this reason, she wanted a lot of time to herself, not even with Edwin.

    Edwin didn't have very much luck with people he wanted to know better, especially the girls. The psychic girl Kelsey mentioned was Sabrina (she was still a little girl at the time), who Edwin tried unsuccessfully to talk to once. But fortunately, the only girls he had trouble with were people; his first Pokemon was a female Meowth who he actually got along with very well. He even gave her a nickname because he liked her back: Pencett.

    About when Edwin was fifteen years old, he started thinking his name was kind of goofy, so he changed it to Lupin. This he figured made sense since it kind of meant wolf, an animal he could really relate to. Anyways, more importantly, Edw... er, Lupin... did quite a bit of traveling as his career as a trainer progressed, and he caught a few more Pokemon as well. But he had some pretty interesting experiences as well. First of all, when he decided to go for his first badge, he was in Saffron City, which was celebrating the arrival of a new gym leader. Lupin was the first trainer to challenge this new leader, who happened to be Sabrina. Not only did Sabrina remember him, but he also lost the battle... and his second attempt to become friends with her. Also, when he went to the gym in Cerulean City, Misty had already left on her own journey, and her sisters refused to battle him. When he went to the gym in Celadon City, he was kicked out because he hated perfume. And, he was aboard the S.S. Anne at the same time that Ash and his friends were. It was pretty interesting--he had boarded the ship without a ticket, and for a while he got Pencett mixed up with the talking Meowth that belonged to Team Rocket.

    A few years later, Lupin took up residence in Hoenn, in a small town called Moondance that was right on top of the Rusturf Tunnel, just west of Verdanturf Town. And, he eventually set up a Pokemon gym there with a couple of friends he had recently made. But occasionally his friends took over the gym while he traveled around Hoenn. For he also had a mild interest in becoming a coordinator. However, he used his Eevee (who was named Umbra) in his first contest, and Umbra evolved mid-appeal. This totally messed up Umbra's technique as he was getting used to his new attacks and form, so Lupin lost the contest. And, the person he lost this contest-battle to was Harley. But this didn't make the two guys rivals, at least not fully. Lupin talked to him after the contest and even offered him a position in his gym, but Harley refused, saying that he wanted to stay on the path to being a coordinator. Besides, he was more interested in picking on a rival coordinator named May. So Harley was the first guy who had been a faulty attempt at a friend.

    A while later, a couple of familiar faces walked into Lupin's gym. Kelsey and Sabrina--together! Somehow the two girls had become friends. Sabrina explained that a boy named Ash made her realize how important happiness was in life, and Kelsey said that she was free from the curse she was under, her great-grandmother died, and she discovered that she had psychic powers as well as Sabrina. And, after Kelsey won the gym battle, Lupin joined the other two on their journey.

    Both Kelsey and Sabrina were soldiers in the POCE, and Lupin became one too when he joined them. The three of them didn't do very much in that organization though, so Kelsey and Sabrina thought about retiring from that mission and just continuing as trainers. But then the problem with the Shuttle Gang started to arise, and the POCE began working on a plan to stop them. In fact, Kelsey and Sabrina were two of the main planners for it. Lupin, however, was moved to a different unit by his boss; he was supposed to actually go on the mission and infiltrate the Rockets currently in Star City. Lupin was reluctant to do this, as he wanted Kelsey and Sabrina to come along as well, but Kelsey and Sabrina weren't really into this mission anyways--in fact, both of them retired and continued their Pokemon journey. Again, Lupin was left in the dust after trying to make a successful friend.

    Pokemon:
    :t196:Umbra the Espeon
    "Umbra" is a strange nickname for an Espeon, isn't it? Well, when Lupin caught him as an Eevee, he really wanted him to be an Umbreon. But then came the day when Umbra evolved unexpectedly--and happened to become an Espeon instead. However, to make up for this, Umbra does know some Dark attacks, such as Faint Attack and Bite. Actually, Umbra had a secret desire to be an Espeon all along, so he was quite happy as a result. He likes to keep lots of things secret, so not many others really trust him.
    :t052:Pencett the Meowth
    Lupin's first Pokemon. Pencett doesn't really like to battle much; maybe that's why she never evolved into Persian. Nor does she like being in a Pokeball, so she does a lot of walking around with Lupin. Because of that, the two are pretty close. Pencett is kind of innocent and naive, but she is loyal and dependent as well. She is good at using Pay Day as well.
    :t262:Feralis the Mightyena
    Lupin captured him after Umbra evolved into Espeon rather than Umbreon. He really did regret not getting Umbreon, as that was his favourite Pokemon, but Mightyena was pretty close. Feralis is slightly smaller and less scary-looking than a normal Mightyena, and in reality he is usually laid back and is not easily pleased. He and Lupin aren't very close, but at least they don't dislike each other.
    :t045:Toadpike the Vileplume
    Another funny name. This is because ever since Lupin caught her as an Oddish, he often saw her burying herself in a patch of toadstool mushrooms to take an afternoon nap. Anyways, if you thought Feralis was small for his species, wait till you see little Toadpike. For some strange reason (the toxins in the mushrooms she slept among?), as she evolved, her head always stayed the same size while the flower grew to proportion. So the result is a Vileplume the sixe of an Oddish, with petals that are only a few inches long. Anyways, Toadpike likes to spread pollen everywhere, and to spray random Pokemon with Stun Spore.
    :t200:Nocturnelle the Misdreavus
    A truly beautiful Misdreavus in terms of style and attacks. She's Lupin's top pick for a contest Pokemon, as she really tries to make a spectacle of any attack she uses. Her personality is also found rather enticing--she's calm, a little on the modest side, and also very spiritual. But other than that, she's not quite happy with herself--she keeps wishing she could do more, that her abilities are quite limited and restrictive. For example, she tries out attacks a Misdreavus can't normally learn, such as Faint Attack. But because of this, she likes to battle just as much as Pencett does...

    RP Sample:
    Lupin was about to walk on stage in the Contest Hall in Slateport City. He didn't know that much about contests except for its objective: to dazzle the audience and judges with an astonishing display of the beauty of attacks. Fortunately, when he heard about this objective, one of his Pokemon jumped right into his mind, one that seemed perfect for contests. So now he stood, far from nervous, smiling at the Pokeball he was holding. But he didn't do this for long, because the announcer's voice came on.
    "And now let's introduce the final participant, Lupin!"
    Lupin walked onto the stage. The crowd fell silent.
    "Nocturnelle, astound them all." With that, Lupin gently tossed the Pokeball into the air, until his Misdreavus appeared out of it.

    So Nocturnelle did her appeal--a truly mystifying one. She opened with a Night Shade for the mere purpose of turning off the lights. Then she used Psywave, producing a mesmerizing array of psychic energy in the form of rings. This she combined with Perish Song, to enhance the eerie mood of this appeal. From what Lupin could tell, this effect brought chills to many people in the audience, and even some of the judges as well. He even saw a little girl in the audience hiding in her mother's lap because it was too scary. Anyways, the appeal did get some wonderful reviews, and a score of 29 out of 30. Not bad at all for one's first contest.

    Nocturnelle's magnificent appeal had earned her and Lupin the highest score of any of the contestants, so they definitely made it into the second round. Three other trainers had made it to this round, and Lupin's first opponent was a guy named Harley that was dressed like a Cacturne and had used a Banette in the first appeal round for a score of 28. Anyways, now the two of them were standing on opposite sides of a battlefield.
    Hmm... Lupin thought. This round will be more like a battle, so I guess I'd better not use Nocturnelle. She doesn't really like battling. But who should I use instead...? Hmm, I wonder...
    "Go Cacturne!" Harley announced.
    "Come on out, Umbra!" Lupin declared. An Eevee versus a Cacturne--how interesting.
    "Let the contest battle begin!" the referee declared. So it began.

    Harley's Cacturne opened by combining Poison Sting with Needle Arm. Fortunately, Umbra was able to dodge this with Quick Attack, also making copies of himself with Double Team.
    "Cacturne, use Spikes!" The Cacturne fired spikes in a circle so that it would hit all the Eevee. But Umbra reacted by jumping into the center of the stage, getting rid of his self-copies. This did cost him a few points though.
    "Now use Faint Attack!" Harley and Lupin shouted in unison. As a result, it was a stalemate--both Faint Attacks cancelled each other out.
    "OK, Cacturne," Harley announced, "now use another... huh?"
    Everyone oohed at the sight of Umbra glowing. But Lupin looked excited.
    Umbra's finally evolving--I can't believe it! He'll be an Umbreon, I just know it--all that work learning all those Dark attacks will pay off!
    Sure enough, Umbreon took on a catlike complexion, and his ears changed shape slightly. He also grew whiskers--strange, Umbreon didn't have any--but maybe this was just a small oddity. Lupin remembered a trainer that had a Wooper without any antlers, for example. Anyways, seconds later, Lupin noticed that Umbra's tail was changing shape as well. In fact, it was growing longer and thinner, and it even split into two.

    "Fi!" Umbra said as he finished evolving. "Fi? Fi... Fi!" He was looking aroud at himself. Meanwhile, Lupin stared at him in horror.
    "You're... you're a... a..." Lupin stammered. "You're not an... Umbreon..." For Umbra had evolved into Espeon instead.
    "Haha, surprised?" Harley teased, a smirk on his face. "You realy have to beware of those split-evolution Pokemon, especially Eevee. You don't know what it'll become!"

    The battle continued, but it was really in Cacturne's favor. Umbra couldn't use his attacks that well because he had to get used to a new type and form, and what was worse, the new Psychic attack he learned hardly had any effect on Cacturne. A shocking evolution and a type disadvantage culminated in defeat in this contest.

    **Hee hee, Kelsey (mentioned in the history) was my first choice of character, but it's pretty obvious why I can't RP her instead...

    Ninetales, you're accepted. I also went and fixed the link to Aloha! Pokémon. In there is also a link to where you can find the two Pokémon you brought up (they're my own, but no such Pokémon are used in this RP). Now to keep this RP going with more of the Pine's Island mission. This should situate everyone for this part of the mission. Also, the non-italicized text is coming from the POCE Commander.

    T-Minus 22:20:00

    While the assault on Star City has commenced, the Trainers being sent to Pine's Island are ready for their own mission. Out on the roof of the base, there is a heliport with a helicopter fueled and ready to go. POCE Soldiers are standing by the helicopter as well.

    "All right now! This helicopter will take you as close to Pine's Island as possible without being detected!"

    "Why can't you just drop us off on the island right away?" -Kiro

    "Because if we do that then he'll know we're onto him and the whole mission will be botched! Now none of you speak unless you're spoken to! We don't have a lot of time! Want to be heroes?! If so, step into the helicopter! If not, stand aside and you'll immediately be taken back to wherever we picked you up!"

    "Maybe I should of just stayed behind. Oh well."

    All of the Trainers board the helicopter. As soon as they're all in, the helicopter lifts itself into the air and takes off.

    "I just hope I'm doing the right thing. I don't want to write notes to parents saying their kids died serving their country."

    OOC| Should I repost my sign-up for more reference? It's not my kind of standard now.
     
    MUAHAHA I HAVE RETURNED! :P Anyway, should I start off in the van or should we skip the ride and head off the island?

    Name: Alalia Aronato (Prefers to be called Ali or Kitty)
    Age: 17
    Region: Johto
    Class: Pokémon Trainer
    Destination: Pine's Island
    Weapon: N/A
    Mech: N/A
    Personality: She's optimistic with a good sense of humor and a carefree outlook on life. She's usually pretty calm but can sometimes be hyper, especially when she's excited. She loves to have fun and is restless when there's nothing to do. But for all that, she knows when it's time to be serious and refuses to back down from anything. She stands up for what she believes in no matter what the cost and hates those who want to control others. When angered she uses a forked tongue and it has earned her several enemies in the past. She can be a very sarcastic person, especially when annoyed, but she never pushes people too far (unless she really doesn't like them).
    Appearance: Kitty's hair is shoulder length and dark brown. Her eyes are light green with specks of yellow here and there and she is around 5 ft. 11 in. in height. Her usual outfit consists of a green t-shirt with a strange looking V on the back, faded, baggy jeans, a simple brown belt with six Pokeballs on it(three on each side of her waist), an orange and black headband with the strange V on the front, orange and black wristbands, and shoes that match her shirt. Her skin is lightly tanned from spending a lot of time outside and she has a slightly muscular build. Sometimes she carries a blue backpack with green streaks on it but she'll lose it during the RP.
    History: Later
    Pokémon: Pidgeot, Houndoom, Chikorita, Stantler, Jolteon, and Gyarados.
    RP Sample: Stealth looked carefully around the dirty lot as she approached the old building. She moved quietly, making sure that her footsteps could not be heard. The chances of someone discovering that this rundown, seemingly deserted building was actually one of the few bases controlled by the Resistance was very unlikely. However, she was always cautious. If she were followed and the location of the base were discovered it would be a very nasty situation indeed. She heard a rustle to her left and whipped around, her sharp eyes flashing dangerously.

    She waited, holding her breath. The sound came again. Stealth now knew exactly where it had come from. A pile of crates were stacked haphazardly a few feet away from the building. She had definitely heard the sound over there. She bent down, apparently tying a loose shoe lace. When she stood up she was holding a lethal looking dagger. The bright steel shone in the dim light still radiating from the sky. She held it ready, hoping she had not been tricked by the fading light and led a member of the Government to the base. She wouldn't want anyone to discover their location but if someone did she would much prefer it to be a member of one of the gangs. They, at least, would not be trying to bring their organization down. More likely they'd be after a Pokemon or some valuable item.

    Something moved behind on of the crates. Stealth's muscles tensed. She gripped the dagger tighter in her hand and moved forward. Suddenly a figure leaped from behind the crates and charged her. Stealth began to laugh as the creature jumped into the air and collided with her, knocking her off her feet.

    "Aronato, you know better than to scare me like that. I was about jump behind those crates and cut you to bits!" The large Houndoom laughed and began jumping around gleefully.

    'Was worth the risk, Atra. You should have seen your face!'

    Stealth pushed herself to her feet and placed the dagger back in it's sheath then said, "I'm sure it was very amusing. Sadly, I'm afraid that's the last time I leave you on your own. You promised you'd be good while I was gone." The young trainer gave her Pokemon a stern look but couldn't entirely conceal her smile.

    'I was very good. Ask anyone. But I was getting bored so I went for a walk outside. That's when you came along.' Aronato gave another laugh and had to brace his legs to stop himself from falling over. 'The look on your face, priceless! I will be sure to tell the others about it so they can see for themselves.'

    "I'll twist your horns off," Stealth replied coolly. "But enough of this, let's go inside. It's getting dark."

    'Sure thing, then after I've finished laughing you can tell me how the mission went.' Stealth simply shook her head and walked the rest of the way to the rundown building. She entered through a door that appeared to be boarded up and rusted. Once she had made sure the door was securely closed behind her she moved on. The room she was in looked just as rundown and rusted as the outside. She wasn't bothered by this however. She pushed open a second boarded up door and descended a flight of stairs. When she pushed open the third door she was stopped by a guard dressed in black.

    "Hey, Stealth. Things went all right I hope."

    "Ay, they did," Stealth replied cheerfully. She lifted her right arm so that the gold wrist band would fall down her arm and held her hand under a bright white light. On her wrist, just above her hand, was a tattoo. The guard nodded, satisfied, and Stealth removed her hand from the light. The tattoo vanished.

    "I take it Aronato was outside waiting for you, was he?"

    "He was indeed, Check." She shook her head at her Houndoom's gloating smile and moved on.

    She followed several hallways, stopping occasionally to exchange a few words with someone, until she reached the one she had been heading towards. There were many doors spaced a few feet apart. Besides each door was a small box mounted on the wall. Stealth walked to the seventh door on the right side and turned to face the box. She punched in a nine digit number and the door slid open.

    The room was lightly decorated with a few posters, some furniture, and a few random items. The door slid shut again as Stealth and Aronato entered. She sighed as she dropped the small backpack she had been carrying and sank onto the bed. "I'm beat," she said sleepily.

    'Aw, come on! At least tell me a little of what happened on your mission before you go to bed.'

    "All right, keep your fur on. Here," she took three black balls from her belt and hit the button in the center of each, causing them to expand to a larger size. She opened each one, watching as each of her Pokemon appeared in a burst of black light. "There, now everyone can hear. And Alalia can help me tell it." Aronato nodded and lay down, waiting. Alalia, Zehpyr, and Rayten followed suit. Stealth shifted into a more comfortable position and began to tell them about her mission.
     
    OOC: xoxkris, you may repost you sign-up here. Also, you and Alana will pick up from my second to most recent post after boarding the helicopter to Pine's Island. It will take about a half-hour to an hour to reach the island. Also, since Chibi-Chan's character is an Elite POCE Soldier like myself, she may have a few lines of dialogue in my posts. Those lines will be in red. Also, anyone who went to Star City is where I am currently. A battle is coming up. Make sure youre prepared for it.

    While the POCE Drones fly out throughout the city, Nived watches them on his remote device.

    "With this, we'll be able to know what they're doing without them having to come back to us."

    "So even if they get destroyed, we'll still be able to plan ahead of time!"

    "Team Rocket must have pretty much secured the defense systems of the whole city. We may be in trouble, regardless of where we go."

    "That's putting it mildly!" -Noah

    "Noah! One more word out of you and we may just take you to the park to be watched over!"

    "Since this is such a huge city, it could take days to find our way around here on foot! We have another means of transportation! Nived, if you do the honors?"

    "With pleasure!"

    Nived goes from the video tracking screen to another screen to the screen that displays all the funcations of the device. Another function is a remote device. He slects the option and the image of a few POCE Soldiers back in the shuttle station come up.

    "It's time to bring them out!"

    "Affirmitave, Commander Nived." -Soldier

    "Now we wait. Oh! And I should be watching the POCE Drones!"

    Nived goes back to the video tracking screen to check up on the POCE Drones. Further in the city, the Drones are picked up by an Ice Chaos. Right as one of the Drones picks it up, the Chaos fires an Ice Beam straight at it, freezing the sentry and causing it to fall to the ground, where it shatters.

    "Uh-oh!"

    "What do you mean, "Uh-oh"?"

    "Looks like we've been spotted!"

    "Well, can't they destroy it?!"

    "I didn't equip them with guns!"

    The POCE Drones are being neutralized one by one by the lone Ice Chaos. The frigid liquid lifeform then splits into many cells, which split up and float towards the rest of the Drones. The cells envelop the remaining ones and discharge icy flashes that freeze the rest of the sentry drones. As the final POCE Drone falls towards the ground and shatters, the video tracking screen goes static.

    "Looks like we have trouble!"

    As Nived says this, more POCE Soldiers come in riding on hoverboards and carrying more with them. There happens to be enough for everyone to use.

    "Here's what you requested!" -Soldier

    "No time! Like Nived said, (imitating Nived) "We got trouble!""

    "Topaz, that wasn't very nice!"

    "All right troops! Mobilize both weapons and Pokémon! Nived, alert the POCE Gunners!"

    "Got it, Commander Tsubasa!"

    Nived goes into his remote device and activates the POCE Gunners.

    "They should be here momentarily! (gets out Pokéball) Troops! Attack positions ready?! Time for battle!"
     
    Lupin flew in on his Haunter Nightcraft, seeing the Ice Chaos up ahead. Little Toadpike was sitting atop his head, enjoying the ride. Nocturnelle floated beside the scooter-ish aircraft, planning on new attack combos to try out. Pencett had been out of her Pokeball too, but upon hearing of a battle she quickly retreated to her Pokeball. Umbra and Feralis were in their Pokeballs as well.

    Finally Lupin landed at the scene of the crime. Taking the weapon called Volbeat's Nightmare out and swishing it in such a way so that it lit up, he walked towards the Chaos.

    The Chaos immediately split and shot another cell at Lupin. But Lupin was prepared; his electric "sword" cut through the cell like a hot knife through butter, and the cell melted. Lupin giggled, thinking for a moment that this battle would be too easy.
    Heat versus ice, Lupin thought. What an advantage.

    "Wait, Toadpike... no!" Lupin shouted. For the little Vileplume had jumped off Lupin's head and used Stun Spore on the Chaos. The Chaos seemed to be unaffected by this, so it fired another cell at Toadpike. Lupin rushed to protect her, but the Chaos was too quick. Toadpike was frozen solid.
    "Toadpike, you shouldn't rush into battle like that..." Lupin groaned, taking out Toadpike's Pokeball. "Return."
    To Lupins surprise, the Pokeball's laser beam didn't work on Toadpike. Lupin gasped in horror, but then he remembered he had a fight to finish.

    So Lupin held the electric sword still, so that it could draw even more current. He was hoping to use this current to destroy the Chaos for good. Meanwhile, the Chaos kept attacking him with pieces of itself, all of which Volbeat's Nightmare melted as before.

    Suddenly, a Ninetales appeared and walked up to the frozen Toadpike. It blew a flame at this Chaos victim, and the ice began to thaw. But still Toadpike lay wilted and motionless.
    <"Don't worry, little flower,"> said the Ninetales. <"You're still alive, and that's all that matters.">
    <"Wait a minute..."> Nocturnelle said, noticing the Ninetales. <"You're not Kelsey's Ninetales, are you?">
    <"I am,"> the Ninetales answered. <"I came here to help out your little friend. I was wandering around when I saw you and decided to help. Kelsey usually lets me wander about, as you probably know. I shall let her know you're here.">
    Kelsey was one of the POCE soldiers Lupin used to work with, though she was now working in a different department of the POCE. However, two of her Pokemon occasionally came to Star City to oversee the mission. Since Kelsey had a telepathic bond with her Pokemon, she too could see what was going on in Star City.
    <"So..."> said Toadpike, sounding weak having just been revived. <"Oh, Ninetales! I thought Kelsey was somewhere else now... Where is she now?">
    <"She has quit the POCE,"> Ninetales answered, <"as did Sabrina. The two have gone their separate ways as well. Sabrina returned to her gym in Saffron City, and Kelsey, well, is traveling around with the rest of the Pokemon... Everyone except me and Gardevoir that is. She left us behind to check on Star City. And she tells me Gardevoir is off in space somewhere currently...">
    <"So does that mean..."> Toadpike asked, <"that you will help us? I think you have a type advantage against that Chaos...">
    <"I'll see what I can do,"> the Ninetales replied.

    Ninetales spread out her tails, which soon sprouted little purple flames.
    <"Let's try a Will-O-Wisp.">
    The nine flames flew out to surround the Ice Chaos. Then Ninetales waited in anticipation to see how the Chaos would react.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    OOC: The mentioned Ninetales and Gardevoir won't be there forever. Ninetales will only help out this one time. By all means, destroy the Ninetales if you want. (assuming you conttrol the Chaoses) I don't want to godmod here...
     
    As Ninetales's flames surrounded the Ice Chaos, the flames went up towards the head, where the cells were spawning from, and damaged it. However, it then shot an Ice Beam straight at Ninetales, freezing it.

    "Lupin, looks like you tried your best, but I think I should handle this! Metagross, go!"

    Metagross came out of its Pokéball and was ready for battle.

    "Metagross, Psychic!"

    Metagross started to glow a blue color. So did the Ice Chaos. Suddenly, a blue spiral enveloped the Chaos, which shook and split into more cells.

    "Dang! That wasn't enough! We need something to hit the head! Wait a minute! I have something that can home in on the head!"

    Nived pulls out his homing rocket launcher, which is large, but has a tiny screen and keypad on the left side.

    "If we can destroy the head, we can destroy the creature altogether!"

    Nived fires a rocket at the Ice Chaos and homes in on it. However, the Chaos exntends a long icy tentacle at the rocket and causes it to blow up before it has a chance to hit its target. Nived looks in shock!

    "What?! That didn't work?!"

    "Maybe you should try more firepower! Camerupt, go!"

    Camerupt comes out of its Pokéball, ready for action.

    "Camerupt, Flamethrower!"

    Camerupt fires a Famethrower straight at the Ice Chaos. Before it has a chance to react, the flames hit the Chaos's head and destroy it.

    "How do you like that?! Too hot for you?!"

    "Showoff. Wait!"

    Nived looks at his remote device and sees that three more Ice Chaos are headed everyone's way.

    "This isn't good."

    The Ice Chaos arrive on the scene, firing Ice Beams everywhere. Several POCE Soldiers, including Tsubasa, are frozen immediately. The ice spreads all over the place, turning the place into a semi-ice rink.

    "Let's do this again! Houndoom, go!"

    Houndoom comes out of its Pokéball, ready for battle.

    "Houndoom, Overheat!"

    Houndoom fires a large blast of flashing red fire wrapped in a flashing yellow spiral. The blast hits one of the Ice Chaos directly in the head. Seconds later, the Chaos is destroyed, but the two remaining ones split into cells and attempt to freeze up the rest of the stragglers.

    "Camerupt, Eruption!"

    Camerupt's volcanic humps blast out a ton of fire and lava into the air. The Eruption hits several of the Ice Chaos's cells, but the lifeforms themselves stay out of range.

    "Can't believe I just wasted a perfectly good Eruption!"

    "Topaz, go and help out anyone who's frozen! I'll handle these cold chillers!"

    "Nived, watch out!"

    Before Nived has time to react, one of the Ice Chaos fires an Ice Beam at him and his Pokémon, freezing them.

    "Oh no! This isn't good! Better fight ice with ice! Dragonair, Lanturn, use Ice Beam!"

    Both Dragonair and Lanturn come out of their Pokéballs and fire Ice Beams at the Ice Chaos. Each Ice Chaos fires an Ice Beam at one of the Ice Beams. Both pairs of Ice Beams clash with each other and create an explosion that spreads ice everywhere. After the cols mist clears, more of the cells start coming for Topaz and her Pokémon. As this happens the POCE Gunner mechs Nived called for finally arrive on the scene. They start to open fire on the two Ice Chaos with anti-tank machine guns.

    "Finally! Camerupt, go and thaw everybody out with Flamethrower!"

    Camerupt goes and does what it's ordered. It fires a Flamethrower throughout the area back and forth. The ice around everyone vaporizes little by little. Suddenly, Nived breaks free of his ice tomb and so does his Houndoom and Metagross. Tsubasa breaks free and so does Ninetales.

    "Looks like our backup finally came! Let's finish this! Everyone, attack at once!"

    As the POCE Gunners continue to fire onto the Ice Chaos, more of the cells come downward and start giving off ice flashes, freezing the mechs.

    "This is going to be harder than we thought."
     
    Kitty sighed and leaned back in her seat. She half wished she hadn't volunteered for this mission now. These people were not very friendly. You'd think they'd be a little nicer. After all, I did volunteer for this. I could have just continued on my way and not bothered. She shook her head and looked out the window. She loved flying but this kind of flying was kind of boring. It was much more enjoyable when she was riding Pidgeot.

    She shifted her eyes from the window to the other people in the helicopter. She wondered if they felt the same way she did. She would have asked them but for some reason she didn't feel very chatty at the moment. Perhaps it was because of the task she had to do. Convincing a guy who wanted nothing to do with POCE to come and help them would not be easy, and probably not fun either. It would take a lot of time and effort and even then they might fail. Why didn't I volunteer to go to space with the others? That probably would have been much more exciting.

    OOC: Sorry for the late and short post but it was all I could think of at the moment. ^_^
     
    Name: Eric
    Gender: Male
    Age: 18
    Region: (Uh, sunflorazumarill. you forgot Sevii Islands and Shinou, just so ya know): Sevii Islands (if not, Kanto)
    Class: POCE Soldier
    Destination: Pine's Island
    Weapon: Jungle King Keyblade
    Mech: Imperial Dragon Paladin IV
    Personality: Will be played out
    Appearance: The boy trainer from Pokemon Emerald
    History: Will be played out
    Pokémon: Dosaidon, Sceptile, Donphan, Kingdra, Crobat, Gyarados
    RP Sample: Eric was heading for Pine's Island, but he had no idea where eh was going, his village was destroyed and he ended up in this future, however many years after the year he came from, 2006 AD. His Jungle King Keyblade had been his father's and he just obtained The Imperial Dragon Paladin Mech from one of his descendants. There was no going back to his own time, but he really wanted to return, even though most of his relatives died. He thought "Great, now what to do? I joined POCE in hope to get back to 2006, but it's a very long way away." He kept going.
     
    OOC: _One_Winged_Angel_, only Trainers are allowed to head to Pine's Island, but I'll put that you decided to go solo and head to Pine's Island anyway. And you can use Sevii Islands as your region. This RP was started before the new regions's name was announced. I'll go add it to the list, though.

    The battle against the two remaining Ice Chaos continues. With the POCE Gunners frozen solid, Nived and Topaz decide to work together to defeat the remaning threat against them.

    "Topaz, I think we should double our efforts and execute plan F1A!"

    "You mean Double Flamethrower?!"

    "Yes, the Double Flamethrower maneuver!"

    Both Camerupt and Houndoom step up to to front. The mysterious Ninetales does so as well.

    "What's this Ninetales doing here anyway?"

    "I don't know, but I think it wants to help."

    "All right! Houndoom, Camerupt, Double Flamethrower!"

    Houndoom fires a Flamethrower right at one of the Ice Chaos, which fires an Ice Beam straight at the Flamethrower. Both attacks collide and come to a standstill. Camerupt fires another Flamethrower that combines with Houndoom's to create the spiraling twist of two Flamethrowers. The flames now push back the Ice Beam, but the Ice Chaos fires off more cells in hopes of freezing the two Fire-types.

    "Looks like we got more trouble!"

    However, as the cells go straight for Houndoom and Camerupt, Ninetales creates a Fire Spin that startes to envelop the cells one by one.

    "Whoever this Pokémon belongs to, he or she has good foresight."

    After taking down the cells, Ninetales uses a third Flamethrowe that joins with Houndoom and Camerupt's Flamethrowers. All three create a searing hot triple spiral twist of flames that push the Ice Beam all the way back to the Ice Chaos. In a matter of seconds, the frigid bio-sentry is destroyed.

    "Yes! Two down! One to go!"

    There's still the matter of the the last Ice Chaos, which fires off a ton of cells straight at Nived, Topaz, and their Fire Pokémon. They start to envelop Houndoom, Camerupt, and Ninetales like snow flurries. Suddenly, enought ice flashes are given off that the trio is forzen in a mountain of ice. Nived and Topaz barely get out of the way.

    "Oh, no! Camerupt!"

    "Wait! If I know my Pokémon physics well, and I do, Ice is also vunerable to Steel! I think it's time for a little heavy metal!"

    "You got that right! Metang, come on down!"

    Metang comes out of its Pokéball and joins Nived's Metagross.

    "Nived, I think we have another source of heat on our hands! Solar heat!"

    "You got that right! Sunflora, both of you go!"

    Both Sunflora come out of their Pokéballs, ready for battle, and join Metang and Metagross. Dragonair and Lanturn also group with them.

    "Now this is a team! Let's use Combined Team maneuvers!"

    "Right behind you there! Sunflora, Double Light Screen!"

    Both Sunflora create two Light Screens, one in front of the other, to almost nullify the attacks of the Ice Chaos cells coming at everyone. However, the Ice Chaos fires an Ice Beam straight at Nived and Topaz.

    "Dragonair, Lanturn, Double Ice Beam!"

    Both Dragonair and Lanturn fire an Ice Beam straight at the Chaos's. The resulting collision creates an array of ice in midair.

    "Now it's time for the main course! Metang, Metagross, Double Gravity Meteor Mash!"

    Both Metang and Metagross start to levitate in the air. As the Ice Chaos cells start to attack, a spherical glow appears in front of Metang's right claw. Metang then swings its fist at the cells. A silver meteor-like glow goes straight for one of the cells and explodes upon contact. Metang fires another Meteor Mash at another Chaos cell, destroying that one, too.

    "Good, and I'll go for the ice blob itself!"

    Metagross charges up both of its front legs and fires Meteor Mash attacks from both of them. Both attacks slam the Ice Chaos, damaging it while Metang continues to fire Meteor Mash attacks of its own at the Ice Chaos's cells. Once most of the cells are gone, Nived and Topaz decide to add the last piece of their technique to the Chaos itself.

    "Now the grand finale! Hyper Double Meteor Mash!"

    Metang flotas slightly above Metagross and both fire Meteor Mash attacks from each of their arms each meteor strike hits the Ice Chaos one after the other. After the last one hits, the Chaos is destroyed and any remaining cells explode with it.

    "YESSSSSSSSS! Victory!"

    "But what about the rest of our Pokémon?!"

    Suddenly, a bluish flame engulfs the frozen Ninetales. The flames melt the ice mountain, freeing the Pokémon trapped in it, and expand everywhere, thawing out the entire area. After everyone and everything is all right, the Ninetales jumps up into the air and seems to fly off.

    "Ninetales, good luck. Thanks, Kelsey." -Lupin

    "Commander Nived, where do you think should we go next?"

    "There's a secluded place called Starlight Park a couple miles from here. I think we should head there right away to rest and figure out out next plan"

    "Got it! We'll use the hoverboards to get there faster! Everybody, board the boards!"

    Everybody returns their Pokémon to their Pokéballs and step onto the hoverboards. The whole group heads off into the distance.
     
    OOC: Aww, thanks for making Ninetales one of the heroes of that stage...
    IC:
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Lupin watched sadly as the Ninetales took off.
    Boy do I wish Kelsey had come on this mission as well. She really would have been a big help as well, especially with the new powers she has. Why does everyone I want to be friends with seem to keep away from me? Well, it's a good thing it didn't happen with my Pokemon. Pencett, Toadpike, Umbra, Feralis, Nocturnelle... Speaking of which, maybe when I get to Starlight Park, I'll let them all out to celebrate this victory.

    So Lupin nodded thankfully to the other POCE soldiers before hopping on his Nightcraft and taking off into space.
    "You were great, Metang, Metagross, Camerupt, Houndoom... wherever you are..." Lupin called as he sped away.

    Even though there is no actual weather in space, in Starlight Park it looked somewhat like a sunny day. Nived really did a good job in selecting this place as a rest stop, as it even seemed relaxing before Lupin could dismount his Nightcraft.

    Before Lupin could take out all five of his Pokeballs, he noticed some sort of ladylike figure sitting by a tree. Lupin decided to walk over to her, as he thought she looked familiar.
    "Gardevoir?" Lupin greeted.
    <"Why hello there Lupin,"> the Garrdevoir replied. <"Kelsey just told me that you and the other POCE soldiers had defeated the Ice Chaoses that were in the city.">
    "Actually, I didn't do much of anything..." Lupin clarified, "...except get Toadpike frozen. Ninetales did do quite a bit though. So anyways, what are you doing here?"
    <"Just enjoying the sunshine,"> Gardevoir answered. <"I really don't feel like fighting today, particularly not the Chaoses.">

    Shortly after that, Lupin sent out his Pokemon.
    "Fi!" "Miss." "Nyarrs..." "Rawwr!" "Vileplume."
    <"Hello you all,"> Gardevoir greeted the other five Pokemon. <"Well, I've been out and about, especially around Team Rocket's torage areas. I find lots of interesting stuff in there, really. Why don't you take a look at these...">

    Gardevoir reached for a fairly large sack and dumped its contents out before the others. There were a few unrecognizable gadgets that were probably broken, a strange-looking Pokeball, a couple of Full Restores... and a whole bunch of Belue Berries.
    <"What those are doing there, I have no clue..."> Gardevoir explained, indicating the berries.
    <"I have one idea,"> Toadpike blurted, throwing one of the berries into the air. Then the berry landed in the hole in the center of her petals, which sucked the berry in. <"Shame I can't taste it.">
    <"Eeee, these are spicy,"> Pencett shrieked as she spat out a berry.
    <"And sour..."> Umbra mumbled.
    <"...Taste just fine to me,"> Feralis commented.
    <"I'll just go see if everyone else has arrived,"> Nocturnelle suggested.
    <"When they do, there's plenty of berries left,"> Gardevoir offered.

    Lupin, though, had the slightest feeling that the celebrating would be very short...

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    OOC: Yeah, I guess the moment when my own Meowth Picked Up a Belue Berry stuck in my mind...
     
    OOC: This post is where we're going to seperate in order to complete the mission. Now remeber that you can run into Star City robots, Team Rocket, the Shuttle Gans, and local hazards (as described in the area summaries) in these places. If necessary, I'll PM you telling you what could happen while you're doing this RP. (Don't worry, no one dies.) After this, I'll be continuing the Pine's Island mission.

    T-Minus 21:55:00

    As everyone in Starlight Park takes a break and plans out their next mission, Topaz goes up to a scenic lake that resides in the middle of the park. She sees a group of Hoppip, Skiploom, and Jumpluff flying through the trees above.

    "Wow. While all the people were evacuated, looks like some of the Pokémon decided to stay. Maybe I should let my Pokémon rest as well. Time to come out!"

    Dragonair, Sunflora, Camerupt, Lanturn, Venomoth, and Metang come out of their Pokéballs. Dragonair and Lanturn jump into the lake while Venomoth and Lanturn float up in the trees. Sunflora and Camerupt simply look around the place. Topaz goes up to Nived to ask him how much longer there is to finish the mission before the "Zero Hour".

    "So how much longer do we have?"

    "Less than 22 hours. We'll only rest for about 10 more minutes."

    "Maybe you should give your Pokémon a rest too!"

    "You're right! I should! Time for a break!"

    Swampert, Houndoom, Manectric, Sunflora, Salamence, and Metagross come out of their Pokéballs. Swampert jumps into the water while Salamence starts flying high into the air. Nived's Sunflora gos up to Topaz's Sunflora while Metagross tucks in its legs and goes up with Metang.

    "Well, we should check out some of the Pokémon in this park while we wait."

    Nived scopes out the park. Such Pokémon he sees while doing so are Gloom, Weepinbell, and Electrike on the ground, Lotad, Wingull, and Masquerain on the water, and Pidgeotto, Swellow, and Murkrow. There appears to be no danger, though. After 10 minutes, everyone is ready to continue the mission. As everyone gathers near the lake, Nived gets out his remote device and hooks it up to a large digital projection screen that he gets out in order to show everyone a map of Star City. He points to a structure in another dome.

    "All right! One of the first things that needs to be done is to shut off the power to the Solaris Cannon! This here is the Electrochemical Reactor, and the main power plant for all of Star City! If we manage to destroy the energy source here, we'll shut down all the other power plants, facilities, and stations in the entire city! Topaz, I'm signing you up to do this! Are you up to it?!"

    "Affirmitave, Commander Nived!"

    "Next up is the Space Plant! In addition to constructing space stations in this factory, there's also the control complex for Star City's outer defense systems! However, looks like the normal path to the plant has been severed by Team Rocket! Another path leading from a facility called the Laser Station will allow us to reach it! Lupin, this is someting for you and the Haunter Nightcraft!"

    "Yes, Commander! I'll head for the Space Plant!" -Lupin

    "Now there's also the matter of reaching the highest point of Star City! One way will require a person to make their way through this area of meteor research centers and planetoids! From there, you can make your way across an area of space walkways and stations! Then, you can reach the Astro Platform and then make your way though this network of platforms known as the Star Maze! Commander Tsubasa, I'm leaving this up to you! Can you handle it?!"

    "Yes I can, Commander Nived!"

    "Now for the civillians! Since none of you have too much experience, I'm sending you off to Star Gardens! It may not look like much, but there is a hidden passage that will take you beneath Star City! We believe there might be a control complex hidden within an underground city that's located there to activate the transport stations leading to the highest dome! The two of you are to have soldiers monitoring you at all times!"

    "You've got to be kidding!" -Noah

    "We don't get to go where you guys do?" -Jae

    "No! Now for myself, I'll will be taking the space roads the lead to the only working transport station to the highest dome! We'll all meet up there and make our way into Star City's database network before scaling the city's highest tower! It's there we believe Giovanni and Mr. Shuttle will be controlling everything! If we can work together, we'll be able to shut down their entire operation! Are you all ready?!"

    "Yes, Commander Nived!" -POCE Soldiers

    "Now we'll be heading to the main train station where monorail hovertrains will guide us where we need to go!"

    Everyone makes their way to the train station. Here, there is yet another food court that Noah wants to get something from.

    "Come on! Just a hot dog or a Poké Burrito!" -Noah

    "No, Noah! We have a mission!"

    "But it could be HOURS before we get to eat! Shouldn't YOU guys be feeding yourselves too?!" -Noah

    "He's right you know! We should all get something while we're at it."

    "Oh, all right! We'll take a 10 minute lunch break! Since there's no one to serve us food, just grab what you want and we'll pay them once we save the world!"

    "All right! I can grab myself a hot dog, a hamburger, a taco, a Poké Burrito, some more Pika Soda, a shake..." -Noah

    "But I'm still limting everyone to a typical lunch!"

    After 10 more minutes, everyone is full and ready to continue the mission. They take escalators up to the upper levels of the stations where the trains reside. There are ticket boothes and turntables here, but everyone just makes their way around them since tickets aren't a factor right now. There are several trains here to board. Everyone gets into a train and attaches a devide to the train's control panel. Screens light up on each of the panels as the trains levitate several inches into the air and head through the tube tunnels to their destinations.

    T-Minus 22:00:00

    Back to Earth and the military helicopter en route to Pine's Island. The craft is now flying over the Sevii Islands. Near the edge of the archipelago, there is a small island surrounded by a jungle. About two miles from the island, we go inside the helicopter with a POCE CO. All of the Trainers are situated on what looks like a flat rubber sheet.

    "All right now! Due to the surveillance of the island, we can't approach any further! You'll have to be dropped off and make your way there yourself!"

    "What?! You never said we'd have to do that!"

    "What are we going to use to get to the island?! Our hands and feet?" -Ali

    "Don't worry! You're all situated on what will inflate into a propelled raft that will take you to the island! Also, just in case there's trouble on the island, we will have a POCE Solider by the name of Eric watch over you from afar and will pull you out is necessary!"

    "I thought you said the military wasn't going to go on the island!"

    "He won't! He'll stay outside a 2-mile radius of the island and make sure you're safe! If you manage to make contact with Professor Pine, you will all be hailed as heroes provided we stop Team Rocket and the Shuttle Gang! We only have 22 hours left until the Zero Hour! Because of the your stealth methods of reaching our base undetected, Ayu Locke, I'm placing you as leader of this Trainer platoon!"

    "Me, leader?! You got to be kidding!"

    "No, I'm not! Now there's no time for chatter now! You're to be deployed now!"

    The CO activates a remote device and a door underneath the flat raft slides open. The raft and everyone on it fall towards the ocean below.

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! -Kiro

    In mid-descent, the raft starts to inflate to a large size. Sides start to rise and a propeller pops up in the back. Eventually, the raft hits the water. The propeller starts spinning and the raft heads for Pine's Island. There are also crates in the raft. Ayu decides to check out the crates.

    "There's Max Potions, Full Heals, Full Restores, and Revives in this one. There are these metal posts in this one with a note. "Laser fence posts. Barrier forms once all four posts are inserted in the ground." What would we need these for?"

    "Maybe in case any wild Pokémon on the island try to attack us." -Nova

    "Well, this crate looks like a fridge and contains hamburgers, hot dogs, vegetables, water; enough food to last all of us for a week! There's also Pokémon food, berries, even vaious kinds of Pokéblocks here!"

    "Looks like POCE knows what we need to have every now and then, including for our Pokémon!" -Kiro

    "We're almost to the island!" -Ali

    The raft nears Pine's Island. After the water turns less and less blue, the raft goes across the sands of the beach and comes to a stop. Everyone looks around, remembering the hazzards the POCE Commander said would be found on the island.
     
    When the POCE headed for the train station, Gardevoir followed them, but she stayed there while the rest headed for the trains. Meanwhile, Lupin was already on the train heading to the Space Plant, and all his Pokemon weere beside him, ready for action. Well, almost...

    Nobody seemed really excited about the mission, but nobody seemed to be afraid of it. Even Pencett seemed quite calm as she waited in anticipation of what was to happen. In fact, the Pokemon that was contributing the most was Nocturnelle, who was helping Lupin figure out the pathways leading to the Laser Station.

    Finally the train came to a halt next to the Laser Station entrance, and Lupin and his Pokemon exited the train. Lupin also took out his aircraft, and told all his Pokemon to hop on it. There was just enough room for Umbra, Feralis, and Pencett in the back; Toadpike sat atop Lupin's head as usual, and Nocturnelle decided to fly behind. So it was then that Lupin started the Nightcraft and flew through the doors leading inside...

    I have the sneaking suspicion this place might be watched... Lupin thought as he flew on past shelves and rooms which seemed barren.
    <"Let's keep our guard up,"> Umbra said to Feralis, apparently having read Lupin's mind.
    <"I guess that makes sense,"> the Mightyena replied.
    <"I hope you two have good reflexes,"> Pencett said to both of them. She felt a little safe, being seated between the other two four-legged Pokemon, but she decided to be aware of danger as well.
    "You're not Kelsey," Lupin noted, "but I suppose you'll do fine." Lupin still could not stop thinking about Kelsey, and this talk amongst his Pokemon did nothing to mitigate it. What Pencett said just reminded him of Kelsey, as Lupin remembered that her reflexes were very quick, almost instantaneous in fact.

    At this, Toadpike and Nocturnelle kept watch as well. Nocturnelle even flew ahead of the group to see what was up further.
