Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Solaris, this is still a tremen..." Tolin stopped bothering when Solaris happily waltzed through the portal. Did the man have no sense of caution? It was a miracle he lasted through his childhood without getting kidnapped and murdered. How had he managed to hold the guild together against Selena's earlier attacks?

He's a complete idiot. And as risky as this is, I'm more likely to stop somebody from doing something stupid than breaking something myself... And, with that thought in mind, Tolin stepped into the portal. He landed gracefully on the ground, prepared for the idea that he wouldn't step onto a flat surface.

Sam stared at the announcement in disbelief. Time travel! Preposterous! The whole concept was impossible. A Celebi is the sole exception to the rule, and the very idea that her protection would spread to anybody who stepped through the portal is lunacy. We're going to cause a time paradox and die horribly when the universe rips our very existence to shreds.

But... Whether or not he went, the result would be the same, right? It might be interesting to see what's back there. And so, with this, Sam stepped through the portal. His heavier robotic legs kept him tipped right, causing him to land comfortably on his feet.

ASAR followed behind because he's a program and can't reason worth crap.

Upon the announcement that they'd be going back in time, Lia facepalmed. "Lillium, please go and tell Pluto his nephew is being stupid but it's far too late to stop him. Lillium nodded, disappearing with a less audible crack than when she had appeared. It was at that point that Lia noticed the Scyther and Porygon-Z entering the portal. Oh my. Those are master Albus's team mates, are they not? Then... Albus might already be in the portal. And, with the resolution that Albus might permanently destroy history, she too stepped through the portal.

When the four ended up on the other side, they followed with the group. Lia found that to her distress Albus was not there and she was very much alone. She didn't enjoy fighting, and the terribly arid heat was baking her skin.

Sam went around examining the area and comparing it's geography to the place they'd left. It was fascinating to see how it had changed over the sixty-some years between the times. Some areas had been dug out or sunk entirely, the trees had been pushed back... The make-up of the plants was entirely different, having been radically altered by the decades of civilization.

Tolin just kept an eye on Solaris, making sure the Espeon didn't do anything really stupid like shout "GRANDFATHER!" or anything. He did, however, examine Orion carefully. It was interesting to see the old man in his prime, as well as the curious purple necklace...

After hearing an all too familiar alarm, Jack arrived on the scene a tad late. Not like there was a hurry when it came to possible disasters anymore anyway. Once in the designated main corridor, the Lopunny was met with nothing else other than a strange glowing portal. Seeing absolutely nothing wrong with its multicolor goodness, he leaped through with a shrug. After recovering from the trip and near seizure from the experience, he proceeded to take in his surroundings. Ending up finding nothing in sight besides an empty field and a treeline directly before him where the rest of his guild had just departed to; thus at this moment he had no clue where or when he was. ******** to 'blue team' if he ever gets un-lost)

Team HTPN

Following Solaris and Orion, Team HTPN arrived into their battlefield, a black plains with none other than Darkrai waiting for them.

"It-it-it-it's Darkrai!" Jessica screamed out of fright, never had the team saw this reaction from her before.
"Are you scared?" Kurogane asked, walking towards her to "comfort" her. "Jessica, the fiercest, scariest female pokemon I've ever met scared of Darkrai."
"You shut up." Jessica hissed as she soon realized her fears were taking over. Taking control of herself once again, she took a deep breathe, closed her eyes and smiled. "This is just another fear I won't let conquer me!" She hissed, her feet still trembling from the fact that Darkrai was right there.
"That's the Jessica I know..." Kurogane laughed as he took his battle stance, stomping his feet into the ground.

"You two stop fooling around!" Sheena shouted as she jumped into the air like she normally does before a battle. "This is for you Julian, Christian, Diep, and Faith..." She was fighting for the babies of the team, the little ones she adopted as her own. "Solar Beam!" Sheena cried; her face suddenly turning really bright. "Fire!" Tears streaming out of her eyes as she released the Solar Beam at Darkrai.

"Sheena, your not going to do this alone!" Zelos shouted, adding onto the attacks. Throwing his body into the air, he pointed his antennas at Darkrai. If he knew one thing about dark types, it was that they were weak against bug-type moves. "Signal Beam!" He shouted as a colorful beam struck Darkrai as the Solarbeam faded away.

"Come on, let's show them how heavy pokemons do it!" Jessica's eyes shifted from normal to evil cat eyes. "Slash!" She meowed as she jumped above Darkrai, coming down with her claws. Ripping apart the shadows Darkrai was made out, but he quickly regenerated. "O crap..." She purred as Darkrai threw her back.

"Jessica!" Kurogane shouted, watching Jessica being thrown across the ground. "Dragon Rush!" Using the move he commonly used, he rushed towards Darkrai. His body picking up speed not like ever before. Slamming into Darkrai, Kurogane simply faded through. Darkrai disappeared when he got hit and he regenerated into his original position. "Ah!" Kurogane shouted as he felt his body being lifted from the ground and thrown. Sliding across the field, he stopped in front of Jessica. "He's tougher than I thought..."
"Isn't everyone tougher than you think?" Jessica mocked, climbing onto her two feet, helping Kurogane off the ground.

(( - 5 Darkrai ))

Team Without a Cause followed the strange Umbreon to the fortress, and immediately began to have second thoughts as a hoard of Dark-Type Pokemon appeared. "Delightful" moaned Trev, wondering if coming through the portal was really such a good idea. "Might as well get this straight: Klash and Scrap stay together, you both specialize in physical attacks. Me and Urvine will do likewise" said their leader. Klash seemed suprised, then again, it was the whole reason she joined the team in the first place. Trev was a pretty good leader when he wasn't either hiding from doing work or sleeping. The team began to attack the Dark-Types starting at separate sides.

Trev and Urvine were combining their Flamethrower attacks to create a massive fireball that had twice as much range and power. An unfortunate Umbreon standing in there way was almost immediately defeated by the combo Flamethrower. Trev and Urvine were really a great combo team when it came to fire attacks, not to mention their escape-covering defensive moves. Three more Dark Pokemon fell at the hands of the massive fireball.

Klash and Scrap were having a little bit more trouble, since the Dark-Types at resistance to fighting moves. Klash used her Crush Claw to deliver a bone shattering attack to an Umbreon's side, knocking it out cold instantly. Scrap was swinging his bone around, thacking several of the weaker Dark-Types in his vicinity. Two feel unconcious when he used his Bone Club attack over their heads, causing a sickening crack as it made contact. Klash went for the easy prey and took out two more Pokemon by simply attacking them with Crush Claw.

Trev and Urvine took three more Pokemon within this time, using distance to their advantage so that they didn't get overrun. Trev had a feeling this was gonna be a long fight.

"Where the hell am I?"
Jack muttered to himself as he walked into the forested area ahead of him. Though it was probably possible for him to return to the guild, some unknown force itching for adventure pressed him on. Soon enough he was too far out to bother turning back and the Lopunny ended up just on the edge of the battlefield. Though it was possibly all in his head he thought it just had gotten the slightest bit darker outside than when he had arrived and at the moment he had this terrible foreboding feeling deep inside him.
"Hey you lost or something?"
"Shouldn't be wandering around in a place like this, no, no, no~"
"What's the matter, fall down the rabbit hole?"
A group of cackling Murkrow and Honchkrow called down to Jack from the treetops. Cackling and swaying about wildly from their perches as they spoke at him. Jack knew something was up right off the bat and once one of the larger birds swooped at him he had no hesitation in retaliating. A simple Blizzard attack froze a good five of the avian creatures in air but it seemed only moments before their population grew greatly in number around him.
