Welcome to Gaia! ::

(Team one)

Faleen watched closely to where they were going, and what they passed, It was certainly different from their own HQ, and honestly, she couldn't imagine any HQ with a set up quite like this.
It was nice though, she wouldn't deny that, she kinda liked this whole ship, except for the fact that it belonged to Galactic.

Following the group she had picked, Hayes, his new partner, along with her own partner 1337 and the Elite Kunai. She said nothing as they searched for a good location.
They seemed to have found one, only it was locked...
"Banette..." Faleen said, in both offering to the Elite as a solution. As well as prompting her Ghost into action.
It of course was just a matter of him ghosting to the other side and unlocking the door from there, if he could.

Team Two

Luxury didn't like the elevators either, but kept her mouth shut and didn't fidget a bit, which she was quite proud of. Once they got to the brig, she started to feel a bit scared. This was really show time.

When Nyx distracted the guards, she flicked her wrist and released two pokemon: Nioshii and Nova. "Confuse Ray, Take Down." She ordered, and her pokemon sprang through the doors and into action.

Nova darted out and about, hitting as many of the guards as she could with her Confuse Ray and keeping out of reach of the guards pokemon. "Bree!" She chirped with each attack, focusing on her job and trying not to let her leg bother her. While the stitches had been taken out, she was still sore.

Nioshii set his sights on the other Arcanine in the room. He was big enough to take them, unless of course they all fell on him at once, but he was going to do his best. With a battle roar he charged the nearest one upon Luxury's command.

Group Two

Sierra took a deep breath before Nyx entered the brig. Showtime.

Her Pokeballs were out in a flash, Marle and Khalon reappearing, still ready to go after their brief exercise earlier. "Marle, Thunder Wave the people and Pokemon in that room. Don't hit our allies, either Pokemon or agents, got it?" The Pikachu nodded, bounding off to the doorway eagerly to comply. Then to the Umbreon, she said, "Khalon. Faint Attack and Confuse Ray, alternating. We need chaos in their ranks, got it?" A brief nod, then the shiny Umbreon faded from sight, his glowing eyes the last thing she saw.

She'd have released Celeste to start things off, but there were a lot of agents here, lots of Pokemon, and she felt things might get a little too crowded, a little too quickly. And Layla, well...she wouldn't want to get her paws dirty on something so mundane.

Inside the room, Marle was cautious to stay far away from the Croconaw and its Water Gun, however, she was happy enough to hit its victims with electricity as soon as they were drenched.

Khalon reappeared behind one Galactic, eyes glowing eerily, fired off a Confuse Ray at the human's Arcanine, then vanished into the shadows once more. Chaos was the order of the day? He'd be happy to comply.

Group Two

Pokemon attacks were flying every which way, chaos ensued. And yet, while her Pokemon were doing their jobs, Sierra wondered if there wasn't something more she could do. Perhaps...reducing the numbers they had to deal with.

Was she crazy?

Maybe a little.

With a deep breath, she watched the action, waiting for the opportune moment...a lull in the attacks near the door, but the Galactics distracted by the violence within...then she slipped inside the door and behind the nearest Galactic. Swiftly, she made a grab for the Pokeball on his belt, pushing the button and aiming it generally at the fight to recall whatever Pokemon was linked to it.

Before the Galactic could realize what had happened, she slipped off to her next target, moving as smoothly as her faithful Umbreon in the shadows.

Team One

Nakura took careful note of all the rooms they passed and the various uses they were made for. At last they seemed to find a suitable room for their operation, though it was locked. He smirked. Finally, some show of security; even if it was rather weak. Any ghost-type could slip through.

Faleen's pokemon was already on the job, though, so it didn't seem that there was any need for the others to bring theirs out as well. He waited patiently for them to be allowed in.

GROUP ONE:

Faleen's suggestion for the door turned out to be a good one. Kunai nodded at her plan, which worked easily. With a simple turn of a latch on the other side of the door, it swung open.

The room they entered was large and dark. It looked like it was probably used for briefings or presentations. Rows of chairs sat on one side with an empty space across from them and a large computer station sat in the center. As the team piled in, soft lighting glowed from the ceiling, subtly illuminating the room.

Upon inspection, the computer proved to be password protected. It would take the collective efforts of Hayes and 1337 to break in quickly without setting off any alarms. This would give the other Rockets a few minutes to look around. Each chair in the room came equipped with a small touchscreen display. Anyone interested in fussing with these displays would find they had unprotected access to less-important information, like the airship's floorplans and lists of Deimos' mech designs.

GROUP TWO:

When Shade appeared out of nowhere at the rear of the room firing hypnosis attacks, two of the Galactics passed out and all the others turned their eyes on the Gengar, distracting them even further form the door.

"What the hell?" The man at the desk looked over his shoulder. The added distraction gave the Rockets a tremendous advantage.. which was a good thing because a fair fight with this group didn't look like fun.

The doors crashed open and the brig became a warzone.

One of the Houndoom near the front of the room was thrown into a cell door with a yelp when Damsel's watergun smashed into it. The Galactic who'd been standing beside the Houndoom stumbled to one side, "Hey!!" He shouted before plucking another ball off his belt. In a flash of red light a Lucario appeared. A split second later the drenched Houndoom was knocked unconscious by the Thunder Wave from Marle. The Galactic tensed and pointed at the Pikachu, "Force Palm!" The Lucario nodded and launched itself at the electric mouse.

Nova's Confuse Ray sent two guard fumbling with poke balls stumbling into a wall before a Houndoom came from the side and launched a flamethrow at her. The arcanine targeted by Noishii was caught off guard and pinned to the floor by the surprise attack. It recovered quickly, though and aimed a kick at Noishii's face.

Noire's heroic confuse ray caught another arcanine off guard. The firey dog shook its head before sending flame bursts in random directions. When Charmant streaked in as a fuzzy blur, she succeeded in knocking another Galactic's legs out from under him moments after he summoned a scyther, which launched itself into the air to aim an x-scissor at Noire.

Khalon's confuse ray succeeded in disabling another arcanine, which turned around and ran for the desk. It crashed face-first into the man who'd been talking to Nyx.

"AUGH NO!!" He flailed as he was thrown to the ground. "ALERT SECURITY!"

Another Galactic ran up to do just this, but seconds before he arrived at the desk Aki's icebeam froze the desk and all the devices on it solid.

In all the confusion, Sierra's attempt at snatching a Galactic's pokeball was a success. When she clicked the button, the Arcanine that had tackled the man at the desk disappeared. The Galactic she'd taken the ball from gasped and whirled around, but she was already gone.

Lasi's supersonic hit the Galactic who'd been trying to get to the frozen desk to call for help. He lost his footing and faceplanted the ground instead.

The arcanine that had been madly firing in all directions howled furiously as Palu shot sand in its eye and turned a flame burst on the bird.

((down in the brig))


((more galatics))
Shade could not help but give the galactic a little laugh before turning on the next group of Galactics with another hypnosis. At the moment he had a bit of agency and he knew it. He also knew that the sudden surprise was exactly what his trainer hoped for.


((Arcanine on Palu))
Damsel seeing that her target was now unconscious looked around for the next one. She was one unhappy Croconaw with all the commotion. she set her sights on the other arcanine when a flame hit her during its confusion. "Croconaw!" she screamed and used Rage on the arcanine, aiming directly for its side.

Agent panther watched the confusion with a grin. It looked like they didn’t need any more pokemon in there for the moment he yawned a bit and waited for the dust to settle, chillen next to Mau’s driftblimp.

(Team Two!)

That satisfying feeling just never lost any intensity, Aila mused as she watched the contents of the brig devolve into chaos. This did have its downsides, of course, and she watched intently to keep track of her own pair as well the pokemon of her teammates. "Charmant, take out the Scyther," she said, projecting her voice above the commotion to her Arcanine. The pink fire-type barked to let her human know she acknowledged the command and directed a Flamethrower at the offending bug type.

Noire suffered X-Scissor - heroically, of course - but turned his attention away from the Scyther on recognizing that it was Charmant's target. Share the glory, after all. He was nothing if not chivalrous, except perhaps valiant. He turned to the next nearest enemy, launching himself at the Lucario with a Poison Fang. There was no time to await orders in war!

Aila frowned slightly at the appearance of additional enemy pokemon. If they wanted to fight them all fairly, they would have met in a stadium. Clearly the Galactics needed to be disabled just as much as their pokemon. A third of her pokemon joined the fray - a Spinarak, hanging back away from the fray and regarding his dear trainer with wide eyes. "Constrict the humans," trainer said, "or at least get their pokeballs away from them."

Mise's large, glassy eyes glistened in a momentary plea to not be sent straight into that raging hellfire, but he surrendered to his fate without too much resistance. And so the sad little spider marched forth with all the courage it had, generally trying to be unassuming as it spat threads at random Galactics.
