As a fun bonus twist, I'm going to attempt something else that we're going to utilize the rest of this arc. A MVP of the Team Mission, and The Epic Post of the Team Mission. In doing so I hope to highlight some of the most (in my mind) epic posts of the past RP and also highlight who I thought had the biggest impact RP-wise. This can be from the Administration as well as members, it all comes down to my personal thoughts on the matter or the thoughts of whoever runs the RP. If people like this we can keep doing it if not, let us know. Anyhow, without further adieu.
The Epic Post of this Team Mission was:
Requiem of Whyspers
Lykas heard Sub's call through his SNAG just as he and Roxie escaped the warehouse they were in. "Damn!" He barked out, quickly grabbing a Ball from his waist. "GREY! I need a switch here! Send me Kamoana!" He ordered the Pokemon, scanning the Pokeball in his hands, allowing the machine in his hand to exchange Talullah's Pokeball for the Luxury Ball in question. Surprisingly, no questions or smart alec remarks came from GREY before, during or after but it left Lykas with exactly what he needed. "I am so glad Sub made sure these things could do that." He told himself.
Spotting Wren nearby, surprisingly enough, Lykas waved to him. "Go with Roxie! Give her whatever help you can if you want to save your region. I'm needed somewhere else." He told the brunet before bolting off, releasing Sphynx along the way and jumping on her back. "Magnet Rise!" He ordered. The Luxray nodded and with a spark, she began to run on the Earth's electromagnetic waves, cutting down on her friction. With so much on the line, Lykas had to hurry. "Wild Charge!" The Electric-type cloaked herself in lightning, her speed increasing as she used the electrical energy to further repel the Earth's magnetic waves and propelling herself forward. Lykas grit his teeth through the pain as the lightning flowed through his watery form and, when he got close, he hurled the Luxury Ball he'd switched out for into the air, dropping off Sphynx's back. "Soak, Kamoana!" He exclaimed as the ball burst open. Those nearby might be surprised to see the light continuing to expand for several seconds before a Wailord formed in the air, dropping to the ground with a colossal "thud" even as it sprayed thousands of gallons of water from it's spout at Zygarde, saturating the Legendary with so much of the stuff that it's very typing was altered. While Kamoana did her stuff, Sphynx leaped into the air toward Registeel, allowing the lightning cloak of her Wild Charge to envelop her without trailing off, using it as a sort of battery for Registeel to draw from as she floated just under it and lent her electrical charge to the titanic Steel Behemoth.

While the Wailord landed a direct hit with the that Soak attack Sub still had his worries that it might not be enough. Sure, to a normal Pokemon a Soak would turn it into a Water type for a bit no questions asked, but this was a legend and while a Ground type the most he assumed it would do is dampen its resistances, for the type of blow he wanted to deal he needed more insurance, luckily he had brought just that. "Here goes nothing! Let's see if this stolen Cipher tech pays off!" He exclaimed, pointing his Snag Machine gloved palm at the beast, aiming for its breast as Pallas got him in close enough to almost ensure a hit.
The machine would crackle with electricity briefly before firing off a small orb of energy which would slam into the 'eye' pattern on the legend's chest, the blast getting no response for the legend and very little fanfare outside of leaving behind a glowing yellow spot. Did it work? Only one way to find out. "Everyone get to safety! Now, Registeel! Charge Beam!"
"Regi gi gi..." Moaned the Iron Pokemon as it took in one last long draw of power from the sources of electricity around it, tapping out the Magnemite and Magneton, sucking dry the Snagem Pokemon with it, as well as completely absorbing the Electric Terrain which crackled underneath. Pointing both palms towards the Zygarde, which was now preparing to unleash another attack as it gave off its characteristic green glow and the earth beneath it rumbled violently, an erratic mass of electricity would begin to form between them.
With a final high-pitched ear splitting beep Registeel would unleash the massive amounts of energy it had stockpiled, the force of the blast being fired sending out a massive shock wave of raw energy and creating an EMP wave pulsating out from its source and its path, electronics failing throughout the city, their SNAGs no exception but it was necessary collateral damage. As the blast was fired off Pallas would throw Sub back down to the ground and into the Protect dome, Sub recalling the bird in midair as he was sent on a collision course for the ground, a certain Spiritomb appearing from the shadows to slow his dissent to a less painful pace.
Hopefully Rala and Kadabra were at the ready to get people to safety as the shock wave of electricity would ignite the the now open fuel tanks, open thanks to one of their newest ilk, Fen. A chain of violent explosions would go off one after another, shaking the complex violently, those inside the Protect dome safe.
While the attack had instantly served its true purpose of crippling Flare and ruining this city for them, at least for awhile, Sub was about to find out if he couldn't get a little extra use out of it as the enormous beam of raw electricity shot towards Zygarde and slammed directly into the glowing spot on its Soaked body. Would the combination of Soak and Flip Shot coupled with the tremendous power of this attack be enough to at least harm it?

Sub and Kaya! ...okay so it might be bad to start this out with a tie but I couldn't separate the two, as this was a fantastic combination attack. Well-written, massive impact. So I guess we've established there can be ties if I want. Either way in this instance I don't think you can have one without the other, so both of them receive a Snag Emblem Piece.
And the Team Mission 1 MVP is...
Ter, also known by his user name TerashiLeonGoken! He was on the ball, being the first one posting in most of the rounds of posts consistently looking for ways to interact with the action be it through story means or getting his characters in there and mixing it up with the plot. I think he demonstrated good sense of how to navigate an RP and weave existing stories into what I was laying down with his Unova homeland threatened. Very good showing, he receives a Snag Emblem for his trouble.
And that's it! Join us for the rewards next time in April and thank you all for participating. I had fun, I hope y'all did too.
