[who's that POKEMON]
The black Charmander barely had time to greet the bell, spider, and horse pokemon before the commotion started. He watched the Chingling and Spinirak chase after a white and black blur before looking over at the pink horse who was looking frantically over the human crowd.
When the commotion started, Pinkie began to look around for the blond head of hair that belonged to her trainer. Had the pokemon gotten to him too? She spotted him and watched as he fell to the ground. "Taaaaaa. Ponyta! Nyyy!" She explained to the Charmander that her trainer was in trouble and she needed to go to him before trying to find the best way through the crowd to him.
The black lizard nodded with a "Cha" and looked between the two pokemon searching for whoever had disturbed the humans and the panicked horse. He chose to follow after Pinkie hoping he could help her out.
[Ally]
The blond smiled down at the girl when she mentioned getting something to eat but it started to disappear when she mentioned her cousin. Would Xander be alright, seeing him with his little cousin? What if he disapproved or was angry about it?
Before he could contemplate it too much, something knocked into their legs and caused Ally to start to fall. He tried to catch her but she must have panicked and ended up grabbing his tie. The force of the fall, along with her grabbing him, pulled him down with her
When he landed, his head slightly hit her chest and he did his best not to look as he rolled off to the side. With his cheeks tinted red, he leaned up on his knees.
"Are you alright?" he asked as he heard the sound of hooves against the dance floor. He looked up to see his pokemon out of her ball and looking worriedly at them while a pokemon he hadn't seen before was standing next to her.

[Tambrey, Weirdman, Kid]
Of all the things that could have happened at this party, an OCD Absol running amok and attempting to knock both him and Tambrey over was not what Kratos had expected. Fortunately, the man was athletic and had quick enough reflexes that he was able to catch himself. Not so his water, which was knocked out of his hand and sent crashing to the floor. This wasn't something that Kratos particularly cared about, however - he was more worried about keeping Tambrey from falling as well.
The redhead reached out, hoping to catch Tambrey and steady her. Once he was sure that she was safe, he was going to release Martel to deal with that (neurotic?) dark-type. He'd expected potential combat at this gathers, not crazy pokémon! Granted, at a place like this, pokémon of all sorts were common, and one with mental issues were just as likely to turn up as ordinary creatures. Still, it had been a surprise and Kratos didn't like surprises very much. He never had and never would.
But dealing with the Absol would come later. People came first. "Are you unharmed?" he asked Tambrey, then glanced over at Weidman to be sure that the pokémon had left him alone - it had seemed like it, but Kratos really hadn't had the time to see who was left alone by the dark type and who was... not attacked, exactly - singled out, perhaps... by the Absol.

(Kratos, Weidman, Kid)
'This is what happens when you refuse to wear your glasses.'
Tambrey blinked, suppressed her surprise, and blushed, colouring a rose-tint quickly in her cheeks.
"Hmn." She frowned, not able to think of a better come back than that, before 'protesting' "I have my contacts on and I really didn't think I needed 'm here; b'sides, I wanted t' wear the dress without 'em."
She fumbled with her bag, placing the card within and then-
"Gaahf!" She found herself being rather forcefully, impolitely, shoved by... some large blur that had barrelled into them.
Her champagne glass, the pokemon would have been pleased to know, was lost from her hand and, of course, Tambrey didn't see where it went.
One hand was still fumbling in her bag when she found herself being knocked over, and thus, her only 'free hand' (only just so after being liberated from holding the champagne glass) would not have been quick enough, nor sufficient to break her fall alone.
The dark-haired grunt blinked, finding herself not knocked to the floor, as expected, but instead 'caught' by Kratos.
She nodded, blushing a little- and also frowning with irritation at being knocked over (she'd had to have been 'caught', like she was fainting or something; that didn't sit entirely well)- and replied. "Uh. 'M fine. Thanks..." Wait, there were League people (Weirdman or whatever his name was) present, so... this unprepared knocking down was a good cover. Yep. That's what she'd excuse it as; she was so easy to knock down because she was playing true to her cover.
"What was that? Is there an attack?!" She straightened up, carefully, and nearly had one foot slip sideways before she remembered she was wearing heels. She steadied herself more carefully, clutched her bag fearfully (read: readied herself to call out her pokemon if needed) and looked toward where ever the Absol had gone now.

(All Pokemon)
Kid blinked as he was suddenly faced with another Absol, this one white. Where had she come from?! It was like she'd just appeared out of nowhere. But that blade appendage...it wasn't symmertical. He couldn't ignore that. For now the humans were out of the way, so he could concentrate on this opponent.
But no, wait. There was another! Was he being ganged-up on? And by yet another asymmetrical pokemon, no less! This one was a one-eyed Growlithe with a jagged, ugly scar across his face, presumably rendering him blind in the other. Kid bared his teeth aggressively. Were they trying to piss him off? It certainly seemed that way. Fixing clothing and height differences was one thing, but when such abominations like these existed...they made Kid sick. The only way to fix atrocities like these were to rid the world of them permanently.
He didn't even seem to notice Maiko, Pinkie, Delic, and Jace approach; so preoccupied was Kid with the sight of the repulsive creatures before him. With Opal and Repede in front of him, the Absol just...couldn't...focus.

[Kid + Repede + other pokemon]
Despite how angry the other absol seemed to be, the white absol still did not attack. She merely stood her ground, remaining there in between the black Pokemon and her Ivory-friend.
"Sol absol sol sol ab...". Despite how dire the situation seemed to be, the white Pokemon managed to keep up her usual chipper tone. She started off asking if they could be friends, but then added to the end of her statement "...absol sol absol ab?"
...but please leave Ivory-friend alone?

[Kid + Opal + Other Pokemon]
Repede let Opal do the talking, but stared hard up at the Absol, still growling. There was something just.. not right about this Pokemon. He didn't like it, and the Growlithe bristled, feeling threatened. He didn't like at all how the this one looked at him.
Preoccupied with Kid and Opal, he barely noticed the other Pokemon approaching.

(Opal, Repede)
"Absoool..." At Opal's attempt to communicate with Kid, the true Absol seemed taken aback. He shook his head, trying to snap himself out of the daze that had prevented him from attacking already. All this asymmetry was making him dizzy. He didn't know how much more he could take.
Taking a deep breath, Kid looked down at the parquet floor beneath him and closed his eyes as he exhaled. Slower breaths - otherwise he was going to hyperventilate and pass out again. That wouldn't accomplish anything.
"Absol, aab," He spoke in a labored voice, trying to catch his breath and combat the lightheadedness that was clouding his thoughts. He could be reasonable. He just couldn't look at his addresser while doing so. I...I don't know what an 'Ivory-friend' is, he communicated slowly, But...but everything is wrong. So WRONG! I have to fix it! I can't handle this!
Lowering his head to the ground, the dark type shut his eyes tighter and put his paws over his face, looking very upset and on the verge of submission. At least until Repede's growling reminded him of the situation at hand. Opening his eyes, Kid's yellow gaze locked on his target and he swiped with another Slash at the Growlithe, snarling as he did so. It was hard enough to think without that monstrosity distracting him.

(( Okay, watching how the flow of the RP is going, it looks like the collected Pokemon are teaming up to take down Kid the Absol. It would be kind of a bummer to suddenly cut away from the action just as it's coming to its climax, SO.
I'm going to push the scheduled scene shift back to let you guys do that so there's more closure to things. If you can take care of it in one or two post rounds that would be great, and we can move forward to DOOM! I mean cake.
Carry on! ))

By that time Maiko had caught up to them and cought the taile end of what the black and white Absol had to say. "Spiin ara rak spi." What was wrong here? When he attacked Repede though she skittered close and fired off a string shot at his legs. "Ra in spin!" That's not how you fix things! What if the Absol hurt someone? Or worse, damaged any pretty hair/furr?! The Spinarak pouted and waved her front arms in the air to draw the other pokemon attention to her if her string shot didn't do the trick.

[POKEYMANZ! + Yuri ]
The true Absol's words didn't make much sense to her. She wasn't sure what was wrong, but apparently he felt that something was wrong. She tilted her head slightly at the other Pokemon before he unleashed a Slash attack at Repede-friend. The false Absol let out a small yelp and momentarily nudged Repede-friend to see how he was holding up.
The girl wasn't quite certain what was going on around them, but apparently she and her dance partner were now amidst some sort of Pokemon battle. Her hand clenched up tightly against her dance partner's as she somewhat watched with her mouth gaping open.
The Pokemon unleashed an attack towards Yuri's Pokemon. It was hard to tell, since there was no trainer calling out attacks. There was a chance this was a Slash attack, or it could have also been a Cut attack.
The girl heaved a sigh up in her lungs for a few seconds before calling out a command.
"Opal, use Slash!"
Opal's eyes shot back towards the voice which had made such a request. Ivory-friend sounded safe, and now she was telling her to fight. Opal's thoughts were quite simple. She'd do anything for Ivory-friend.
In an almost mirrored manner, the white Absol swiped her own Slash at the darkest blur amidst the group.

[Teh Manz + Ivory]
He saw the attack coming but was only able to turn his head away before the slash attack struck. With a yelp, the Growlithe was knocked down.
Yuri was watching the entire thing, and let go of Ivory as soon as his friend was hit. He took a step towards the Pokemon, again almost forgetting his lack of a weapon, his hand's clenching. However, he remained close to Ivory, just in case that crazy Pokemon decided to turn on her again. "Dammit. Are you okay, Repede?"
The Growlithe in question pushed himself back to his paws at Opal's nudging and woofed out a reply to Opal and Yuri. He was fine, if a bit pissed off.
As the other Pokemon started to attack, Repede too joined in the fray. He lunged at the Absol, and in a burst of flames, released a Flame Wheel attack.

(All pokemon, Yuri, Opal)
When Delic arrived, he thought he heard Opal (now evolved into an Absol?!) and Kid trying to talk things through. However, that didn't last long as the peace was broken by the Growlithe from earlier.
"Ching chingling!" the bell pokemon called in distress as Maiko attempted to join the fray. Be careful! he warned, knowing how wild the Absol could get when panicked. It was a shame they couldn't have just continued to talk it out. Kid had almost seemed willing to surrender for a moment thanks to Opal's attempt to communicate with him. It seemed that small amount hadn't been enough, though.
Deciding there wasn't much more hope to get through to the mindlessly-distressed Absol, Delic joined Maiko's side. His psychic attacks would be of no use to him against Kid, but luckily he had others. Drawing in a deep breath, he released it in an Uproar, a little remorseful of its possible effect on his allies, but knowing it would probably bother Kid more than anyone.
(Opal, Repede, Yuri, Ivory, Delic, Maiko)
The black absol with white stripes jerked his head toward Maiko. His eyes widened in shock. What an adorable, lovely Spinarak! She was beautiful, simply beautiful! A wonder of creation! He could hardly speak as she String Shot him, still gawking at her perfection while he fell forward, collapsing on his bound fore-paws. There was no way he could attack something so gorgeous!
The trance was broken as Opal's slash attack hit him. Kid glanced her way, momentarily wearing a look of bewilderment as he was brought back to reality. Before he could retaliate, however, he was charged by the horrific Growlithe cloaked in fire, too mentally stressed to respond. Maiko's String Shot still held him fast.
And then Delic - that bell abomination - he had to open his big mouth. Kid's headache pounded at his temples and he released a growl of frustration and agony. It was all just too much! Thrashing a little, the dark-type released a final attack before passing out. It was an aimless Psycho Cut attack that he shot randomly while twisting about, possibly injuring or singeing any number of victims.

[Kid, etc]
KO had been minding his own business, chatting to a very handsome man when a Hyper Beam exploded his champagne flute and singed his glove. It had been a nice glove. He had made it himself. His eyes narrowed and his handsome face contorted into a vicious snarl. "There's one at every party, isn't there?" Eyes blazing he drew a glossy red pokeball from a pocket and released the occupant. "Duke! Get that Absol!"
Giving a bass 'chuuu' the pale furred electric type turned on its enemy with cheeks crackling. Before he could do anything about it, however, the dark type collapsed. Shrugging to himself, he jumped up onto the drinks table and helped himself to two flutes of champagne, one of which he passed to his fuming trainer. With this said he took a sip from the other flute and scanned the area for ladies.
KO glared at the fallen dark type for a few moments before pulling off his gloves and tucking them away inside his coat. "I hope somebody plans to take responsibility for that thing," he said loudly, "it could have got somebody seriously hurt! Isn't this supposed to be a league controlled event? Whatever happened to basic safety?"

"We're here!" There was a brace of security guards in their penguin suits, pushing past the party guests as politely as they could manage. Their shiny nametags read Oliver and Clyde. "Where is it?"

"Over there boys," KO made a fluid gesture with his free hand at the collapsed Absol. "I'd impound it if it were my call," he added, "can't have a pokemon like that running around, I mean you should at least have its trainer answer for it!" Hey, if he could inconvenience some idiot trainer so much the better right? Glory of Team Rocket and whatever else.
