Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I do believe we might've slightly underestimated this Bagon." Sol quipped. "Swampert, we can safely throw subtlety out. Blizzard."

Cera's eyes were wide as she saw what happened, slowly floating back. She didn't see any of that coming. "Well, that's new..." She tried to hold Bagon back with a sudden push of chi, but with the rate Bagon was going, she doubted it'd even slow it down.

"Bagon are strong but this is crazy..." Alex commented, scanning the dragon. It appeared physically to be a normal Bagon but there was nothing natural about that dark aura around it. She contemplated sending Lilipup in but it didn't seem the little guy would be of much help. Still, it was better than nothing, right? "Use Ice Fang!" she commanded, the tiny puppy charging in with bared frozen fangs.

"I'll handle the cell." Sol said afterward, glad that things were calm for the moment. Making his way to the cell and having Swampert follow, he took to heating a few of the bars before having his Pokemon freeze them with an Ice Beam. The combined effort was enough to make the bars brittle, breaking them without much trouble. "Sorry for the damages, but I'd imagine you'd sooner want out than to stay in."

Cera gulped and looked down. "Um... restrain it? I couldn't do that much to it, the way it was. I'll try again if someone can defrost it, though. Unless you mean a Pokeball, so dun look at me if it's the case." She spoke up, already trying to keep a constant pressure on it through her chi. It still wasn't much, but maybe it'd work for a moment whenever Bagon defrosted.

Veronica started to look at the Bagon's work inside. It was a wreck of the place. Was that thing EATING the metal? She whined, taking a peek at the cop and Sol. The will-o-wisp was a great idea. Slowly taking in the scene, she returned BlackCrystal to the pokeball, having taken some damage before. She felt at bit unease without her pokemon next to her.

"That was quick... hm." Sol turned towards the Bagon as he listened to GRAY's analysis... or lack thereof. "So something even the AI's stumped on. Cera, is there anything you can make of it?"

The Mew only shook her head. "Nothing GRAY didn't already say... but looking at it, I kinda feel justified in planning to give up my Styler. I dun think it'd even respond to its use."

This was enough to make Sol wonder, but he'd tackle the subject later. For now, he withdrew an Ultra Ball. "I was trying to save this for something else, but as I see it, we've got a more urgent matter. And if it'll help GRAY, or you for that matter, figure something out, it'll be worth it." Going on ahead with the suggestion, he tossed the ball at Bagon. He couldn't risk being up close to it, not with it still acting more rabid than any Mightyena in existence.

Alex spaced out, watching Sol break the cop out with the heat and cool technique. "Breaking a cop out of jail" she giggled to herself. She held her Lilipup in her arms, petting him for a job well done. Afterwards, Bagon was freed a bit and then would be captured for further analysis. "Sooo, we're taking it with us. At least it isn't a Salamence" the young girl pointed out, trying to look on the bright side. That way if it somehow broke free back at HQ, it wouldn't be nearly as bad...right? "Wait, so Bagon was the only cause of the chi disturbance? The communications and stuff too?" Alex asked.

As the ball absorbed the beast and hit the ground it began to shake violently, more so than usual, thankfully though the beast didn't seem to have the strength to continue to fight and the ball laid still, blinking once to signify the successful capture. "I'll observe the Bagon further upon return to headquarters. However, despite this capture the disturbance still persists- kssh..." A static sound could be heard as GRAY's sentence was cut short, a new voice speaking through the SNAG. "Signal lost." It simply declared. "Yo, what happened?" Toren asked, the matter of the lost signal though would be a lesser problem as an explosion rocked the building.

"Duuude! What was that!?" The trainer shouted, looking around and noticing no damage to the inside of the building. "Sounded like it came from outside." Toren said as he ran out of the building to find a group of three thugs and their Pokemon, one of them seemed to be lacking as only two stood in front of them, a Gible and a Trapinch. "Hey! Where is our Bagon!?" One of the thugs shouted at Toren, his Trapinch responding by jumping at Toren, mouth open wide.

As Veronica picked up her SNAG as well to check, the explosion startled her to the bones. Should have known it wouldn't be that easy. She had let her guard down and simply felt glad that the building remained sturdy.
Veronica took a hold of one of her pokeballs as she followed behind Toren and Sol. "D-don't tell me..." she whispered to herself as she sent out her Crobat. Veronica raised her arm to point at the Trapinch, at which Timeless flew just above the Swampert to attack it with Acrobatics and ensure it would stay astray from biting Toren.
