"Eloise, take it!" shouted Len as she redirected the attention of her worn Charizard. "Air Slash!"
The lunged rocks from the Gliscor were diced in another two by the spinning blades of air and that continued to hurl towards their marker. Eloise didn't leave from the attack without wounds as the rocks were still tumbling towards him. They jostled her face and lower back as she retreated only to be pushed back into battle. She was on her last leg and couldn't continue take more of this.
Len hardly registered that her Charizard was all she had left for transport. "Flamethrower!" she cried. "At the ship, the Gliscor, go!"

  Tend to the Galactics, I will assist with the Ho-oh.The green Mewtwo had separated from its owner. It had its own instructions which it received through mere thought, and it silently teleported to where it had been directed to go. There were several other Pokemon already in the fray. The green tail lashed behind it as it seemed to judge where it was needed most in the scenario. The addition of the Gliscor seemed to take the Mewtwo's full attentions. To supply others a chance to get some attacks in, it reached out its left hand towards the stones that had been flung. It stared intensely at the sharp stones until its eyes began to glow an intense blue color. Using Psychic, it attempted to slow (or flat out stop) the remains of the Stone Edge attack. Kunai, on the other hand, stood watching the situation with the Ho-oh. She had a rather large scowl upon her face now. There was very little that she could do at the moment. The bird, though weakened, would definitely be able to knock her into the lava. The Elite did not seem to desire a fate similar to the Egg. So rather than throw a Pokemon into fight, she aimed to merely distract the Lucario while the real pocket monsters did their job. The short Rocket pulled out a handful of kunai knives. With a careful eye, she began to throw her weapons towards the fighting-steel type.

The Lucario's attention quickly snapped to the oncoming frenzy of knives. The Pokemon backflipping and dodging some while using the spikes on his paws to deflect the rest.
Orion gave a laugh as he watched. "Hey shrimp, didn't your mommy ever teach you not to play with knives? Go Lucario!"
The Lucario's paws started to glow blue once more, as did the knives that were just thrown. Suddenly the kunai all lifted off the ground and went sailing back at their owner all at once in another form of Aura Sphere.

( OOC: Tinn had to step away from her computer for a little bit, so I'll be posting for Tethys for a round or two. ))
The starmie made an effort to dodge the electric attack, only to fly into the simultaneous attacks from the absol, Seance and Brick. The force of the blade, punch and body slam (?) threw the star-shaped pokémon back into the ship, where it tumbled to the floor near Tethys' feet.
The female Galactic seemed wholly unconcerned. "Recover. Then ice beam."
A shimmer of light passed over the injured pokémon as its various wounds started to mend. With new strength, it spun back into the air and fired its ice beam at Tesla, staying near the relative safety of the ship.
Meanwhile, a cloud of any sand not deflected by the starmie and stinging petals were enveloping the ninjask, courtesy of Badru, Halima and Fleur. This was made worse when Phillip flew over the flamethrower shot by Eloise, allowing the blast to set the spiraling petals ablaze instead.
Deimos squinted against the barrage, coughing, "Andre! Aromatherapy!"
"Shay!" The little shaymin pipped, sending a soothing mist from its flowers over the ninjask, curing any burns suffered by those on board the ship.
"Phillip, giga impact!!"
"Scor!!" The gliscor dove at Fleur, attempting to line up the powerful attack to catch any pokémon behind the venusaur as well. "GLISCOR!!" It shouted as it gathered speed and hurled itself at the grass-type.
This all happened an instant before the ninjask ship was rocked by a hyper beam that charred and dented the hull, pushing it away from the ledge.
Below, Seth's salamence would have little luck with the cable holding the Ho-Oh. Whatever it was made of, it was definitely stronger stuff than normal steel.

Damon was only moderately disappointed to see the attacks deflected, but he didn't give up just yet. The only thing he had to do was give those freeing the Ho-Oh enough time to do just that, and he was fairly certain he could manage.
"Alright Badru, this time use Confuse Ray! Aim for the Gliscor! Halima, the Venusaur!"
Badru began charging the attack as soon as the command was given, and released it at the flying Pokemon. Halima didn't need clarification for what she was being asked to do. She knew three attacks at the moment, and at this point only one was feasible in the situation. Once again she used Helping Hand, this time lending her aid to the nearby Venusaur.

Nyx decided that standing behind her Aggron was a good plan for avoiding shrapnel and other various battle hazards, Tesla, however, was not so cunning at avoiding attacks. The Raichu was hit by the Starmie's ice beam and was knocked backwards, tumbling over itself before coming to a stop in a heap of unconscious rodent. The white haired Agent cursed and recalled her electric type. The others would have to deal with the Starmie.
Tazieff did not fare well against the Lucario's extremespeed, and went whipping back against the rocks, much like Tesla, unconscious and defeated. He too was recalled.
"Beaker, iron defense, then ice beam!" She pointed at the Gliscor, who was coming in for an attack on the ledge the Rockets were all sanding on. The Blastoise's shell gleamed in the light from the magma, becoming harder and more sturdy, then she aimed her cannons at the incoming pokemon, gathering silvery blue energy and then firing her lasers. "Blaas!" They would be the best distraction they could for their comrades trying to free the Legendary.

Faleen moved along the ledge, positioning herself so that she had a different angle to align her shot.
It was the last hook she had, make it or not, she had to try, even if the chances of landing a hit with so much movement was slim.
unable to see as clearly as she had before, due to the sand and pestles she had to rely mostly on what she had observed of the large ship before.
she held the grapple gun at the ready, mapping in her mind the components of the ship... remembering and identifying how it would have been pieced together, how it would be able to function, it was all second nature to her, it made perfect sense... even if she would have done it differently- no distractions Faleen!
Remembering what she had glanced of the controls, and where they had been located, knowing there were bodies to be gathered by it.
It was difficult to line up a shot, but she did the best she could to find the control panel, taking aim over it, waiting for a decent shot, and taking it.
Absol blinked when the Starmie simply recovered its self. growling again, though this time in more annoyance, he had to leap up into the air to avoid being hit or shaken off. things were REALLY heating up now.
While in the air, he caught sight of his new target, narrowing his eyes as he started to descend. Absol opened his mouth.
it was time to cool things down a bit.
"Crack Crack CRACK!" the ice reacted with the hot air around it, but was able to form a successful beam of ice that shot toward gliscor that was in mid attack on a Rocket venusaur.
Umbreon was back from being hit from the attack, and he didn't look happy in the least. Banette floated down by him, before swooping past, reading a shadow ball against the advancing Gliscor.

I have no Mommy.It was an instant thought she had the moment Orion had bellowed out at her expense. She could have said it aloud, but then that would be showing some sort of weakness to the enemy. Even if she had long accepted the fact she had no parents, it could still be seen as a weakness. One rule of combat she lived by was that she would never leave herself defenseless. Though she had thrown so many knives, she still had a single one at hand, prepared to defend herself as needed. However, she was willing to risk that slight defense to prove a point. She didn't even look at the Galactic, but she threw the last knife she had at hand towards him. The pink-haired Elite knew that the Lucario would probably use its aura to catch it, or the Galactic would dodge it, but without those factors in play, her aim was eerily dead on. Her body then tensed and she countered the Pokemon's vaguely familiar attack in the same fashion it had earlier with several dodges and fancy flips. Even without her knife to assist in deflecting, she still seemed able to prevent any damage to her person. When the barrage seemed to halt, she let out a single breath and allow her fingers to locate one of the many knives now littering the group around her. "Not bad."

Badru's confuse ray, Beaker's ice beam, absol's ice beam and umbreon's shadow ball all slammed into Phillip at the same time. The gliscor was knocked off course and flew into the ledge instead of Fleur. "Gli.. scor.." It groaned. It was still conscious but appeared severely dazed. Somehow, it managed to climb to its feet and aimed a poison jab in a completely random direction, likely hitting nothing.
"Phillip!" Deimos could be heard shouting from somewhere in the sand/petal cloud. This was followed shortly by an, "OW!" as a grappling hook clocked him in the shoulder.
"Enough of this!" He snarled and resumed fussing with the controls. With a bit more tweaking, he had the ninjask ascending again. It was leaking various fluids and one engine had given up entirely, but Deimos had the ship climbing steadily toward the mouth of the volcano. As the sputtering vehicle soared higher, the exhausted Ho-Oh dangling below it came into view, rising above the Rockets.

"Whoa! Ho' s**t!" Orion shouted as he made to dodge the knife that was thrown at him, which didn't quite hit its mark... but it did slice through his pant leg and leave a cut on his thigh. "That was not cool."
The Lucario narrowed its eyes and went into a stance once again, this time its body glowed as it performed a Healing Wave and restored its strength.
But it was then that Deimos decided it was time to blow this joint, which Orion couldn't agree with more. "That's our cue! Sorry little miss, you're cute, but we'll have to continue this dance another day!" With that, the green haired Galactic recalled his Lucario and released a Dragonite, using it to fly towards the top of the volcano along with the aircraft.
Seth gritted his teeth as his Salamence was unable to cut the cable, and now those crazy fools were getting away with their Ho-oh! Like hell he was going to go back to HQ with nothing to show for it!
"After them, quickly! Grab some of its feathers!" If anything, they could at least have some Ho-oh DNA.

Grapple gun thrown to the ledge, Faleen sat upon the hot ground, holding her shoulder and shaking as she panted, gathering herself back up as she was forced to stand.
Her eyes widened as she saw the large ship starting to lift up.
they were retreating, the ship looked in poor shape, but well enough to be able to fly.
She half expected the Ho'oh to be released by now, but as the lines lifted, they seemed to stiff, to be holding nothing on the end, and then the sight of the large Ho'oh dangleing at the end, looking tired and beaten
Galactic still had it! And they were trying to get away.
"I don't think so!"
The Ho'oh was right there! She knew this wouldn't work very well from what happened to Nikki, but if they needed to get the Ho'oh out of the bindings this was the only way she could think of how to.
She pulled an empty Dusk ball up. enlarging it, and throwing it, as hard as she could toward the rising Ho'oh.

Nyx didn't need to be told twice; The galactics started to make their getaway, and the Agent recalled all of her pokemon save the Pidgeot, who she climbed onto once again. Langley and his rider lifted into the air and took off after the Ho-Oh and air ship.
"Langley, thief, try to grab feathers or break something on those bindings!" Nyx commanded as the Pidgeot readied his talons.

Hell, feathers were better than nothing! You have to give it up to those peeps in the labs. They could create anything!
"Eloise, to the air!" Len cried. "I want a handful of those feathers, c'mon!" As they launched, Len held out an extended hand to grab the amount she exacted.

There was no change in her expression as the Lucario was called back. It was only then that she allowed herself the luxury of looking back to the green haired Galactic. Even with his attempts at embarrassing her with "compliments," her expression still remained that scowl she had started this fight with. And she really wished she still had her hat. She narrowed her eyes, bracing herself for the sudden gust of air that came from the Galactic summoning the Dragonite. It was only once the Galactic was airborne that she threw the knife she had managed to pick up after him. It was her only way of showing her aggravation. Pokemon, do as Seth has ordered. Without any hesitation, the Mewtwo hoovered itself up psychically towards the Ho-oh luggage to the Galactic Mecha. With its eyes glowing blue, it managed to snatch up several feathers, all that the green Mewtwo claimed glowing the same blue color as its eyes.

A quick swing of Dragonite's tail derailed Faleen's plans to capture the Ho-oh as her Dusk Ball was knocked out of the air. However, there was a thunk as the kunai knife buried itself in Orion's leg and a "Nnrg!" in response. However, the Galactic simply reached down and yanked the weapon out.
"Ah, thanks for the memento darling!" Lifting his other hand to blow the pink haired elite a kiss before the Dragonite took off.
Seth's Salamence meanwhile, also went after the Ho-oh, looking to snatch several feathers from the giant bird's posterior.
