Team Plasma discussion

Another highly active city, it includes piers that ship goods, a Gym, the Casteliacone Stand, Pokemon Center, and much more. Aim for the docks and streets. Many Trainers live here.

Neptune entered the city. She followed R, matching her pace evenly.

R glanced over at Neptune. "Well, this is Castelia. We need to get to the HQ for now." She set off down one of the many streets.

Neptune caught up to her.
"Don't try anything with my Pokémon. You'll be sorry!" she snarled. "I worked hard to catch them all!"

R raised an eyebrow. "I wasn't going to. Although, thank you for the idea...."

Aaron ran up to them. "I made it! Hey, nice place R!"

Neptune stared at Aaron, then turned to R. "We should really be going," she said.

Turning, she walked away quickly.
Who does she think she is, bossing us around like that? she thought angrily. I'm in charge of my own team!

"Have fun getting out. Nimbasa is a long way off, and I doubt your Sinnoh Pokemon are strong enough to fight the ones here," she called after Neptune. "And if you do leave, I will notify N that the alliance is over."

Neptune stopped. Leader Cyrus wouldn't want that to happen...
Turning, she nodded. "Okay, but let's actually do something instead of sightseeing...how about a...battle?"

R cracked a large grin. "Of course. Meet me down by the pier, near Royal Unova. You can go over to the Center and heal up, get stocked, and such."

((Remember, Neptune hasn't been to Driftveil. She can't get the Revival Herbs.))

((That is fine. You forget her secret passion...GROWING BERRIES!!!))

((Wow. I did not even know she had a passion for that.... Quite disturbing...))

((You should see my berry bag on Diamond.))
Neptune ran towards the ocean, trying not to get lost. She found the pier, and looked around for R.

All of a sudden, a Liepard, Emboar, Seismotoad, Simisage, Colabin, and Unfezant surrounded her. "Meet my Lv. 80 team, Neptune," R said with a smile. "Good luck against them."

Neptune grinned. "Six-on-six? I'm up for that!"
She tossed six Pokéballs into the air. A Wurmple, Dark Lugia, Empoleon, Glaceon, Pidove, and Serperior landed on the ground.
The people on the pier hopped onto ships and ran towards the city.
"Seriperior, Leaf Tornado! Empoleon, Surf! Wurmple, String Shot! Pidove, Air Cutter! Glaceon, Icy Wind! Dark Lugia, Psybeam!"

R, unfazed, grinned even wider. "Liepard, Night Slash on that Glaceon! Emboar, Flare Blitz on Seriperior! Simisage, Grass Knot on Empoleon! Unfezant, Fly! Colabin, Ice Beam the Wurmple! Siesmotoad, HydroPump on Dark Lugia!"

Aaron watched. He had only seen one lv. 100 pokemon in his life.

((Seriperior is KOed. Fire is supa-effective on Grass.))

((g2g))

Dark Lugia suddenly dodged the Hydro Pump, as it was very fast. It folded its wings, diving into the sea.
Wurmple, nearly frozen by Colabin, used String Shot, wrapping Emboar in a sticky tangle of web. Glaceon, standing from the Night Slash, made a huge, cold wind that made the Simisage stagger and the Unfeazant crash to the ground. Empoleon, staggering to its feet, used Surf and dove into the sea after attacking Liepard.
((Was that all of my Pokémon...? Ugh, so hard to rolepaly battles.))

((Yeah.))
Aaron went up to her. "Good job."

"It's not finished yet," Neptune said, smiling at her traps that she had created. Her Serperior slithered up, and she jumped on its back, healing it with a potion. The wind swirled with leaves around her.
"Lead blade!" she commanded, and Serperior attacked the Seismotoad.

"Opps, sorry." Aaron told her.

"This fight will turn around in a flash," Neptune continued. "Watch carefully."

"Right. I still have alot to learn."

R grinned. She may have set up a trap, but I have one more.... Unfezant, who appeared to be KOed, was up in an instant, and transformed. It was not an Unfezant. It was an Arceus. "I heard about them from your Region," R explained. "And I decided to clone a few." All around her, Arceus' were rising from her Pokemon, except for the Liepard. She stroked its fur, and whispered, so no one could hear, "Unison. Spatial Rend." And a blast of energy rocketed Neptune's Pokemon fifty feet into the air.

"Wurmple, use String Shot at the Liepard!" Neptune commanded. "Serperior, Leaf Tornado! R, you may think you have me, but look out from the ocean..."
Dark Lugia exploded from the sea, dragging an Arceus back under with it. Empleon leaped from the water, using a Surf, which knocked three of R's other Arceus's into the ocean.
"Wurmple, String Shot!" Neptune commanded. Her Wurmple shot a sticky web into the ocean, binding the Arceus and preventing them from moving...
"Now we'll see who is the best Commander!" Neptune announced. "You will be forced to return your Arceus before they run out of air!"
((Wow...Neptune is very mean.))

R did not seem worried. "I doubt you would kill innocent Pokemon. After all, two are left. And frankly, that String Shot was TOO stringy....." An Arceus broke free, and shot fire into the ocean. The webs broke the bindings, and the others rose out. "One fault can cause a chain reaction, or did you not know that?" she asked happily. Through her mind, she commanded her army to do something vicious and cruel. But she had to. For the cause. And then, flames enveloped all of Neptune's Pokemon. Without water to quench it, because one had decided to levitate them all....
((That may be so, but I am meanER.))

((This is GOOD.))

Aaron watched in amazment. It was battle of the commanders.

((We are awesome. And I know every trick she can pull. I fought her a few times. But I bet she did not know this one was coming...))

At that time, Venus had been riding toward Unova on her Staraptor. When she reached Castelia, she had just seen R's final attack. She grinned. Once she landed, she called, "Oy! Neptune! Did you forget your skill back at Sinnoh?"

Neptune frowned but did not turn to look. "Venus, you should not be teasing your Commander. Now, will you help me? This...R...is trying to prove that Unova is the best. But together, we can crush her! Your Dark Arceus can take on her Arceus."

"Hey, I can help you know! I have 3 lv.90 pokemon! Secretly, I have been training them hard. So, whatdya say?"

Neptune glared at Venus, then nodded. "Yes, join us," she murmured. Then she commanded, "Glaceon, Icy Wind! Pidove, Air Cutter!"

"Alrighty then! Venasaur, Mew, and Bronzong! Come on out! Now, Bronzong, use Psycic, Mew, use Transform, and Venasaur, use Frenzy Plant!"

Venus grinned. "Actually, I think I will back R on this one. She seems good, and frankly, it might help with our studies." She sent out her Dark Arceus, Infernape, Seviper, Palkia, Darkrai, and Shaymin. "I've been busy while you were away," she explained to Neptune.

"And I was chosen by Cyrus to go on a mission while I was away!" Neptune snapped. ((Can I at least almost win the battle? Down to one-to-one? Oh, and the last will be Wurmple, because she is my toughest.))
Neptune's Lugia erupted from the sea again, using Areoblast.
((Don't forget about your three Arceus that are sinking under the ocean because Wurmple used String Shot to make them imobile.))

"Mew/Heatran, use Eruption!" Mew had transformed to Heatran.

Neptune dove out of the way with her Serperior, dodging pieces of the pier that had broken away and were flying through the air.
"Empoleon!" Her Empoleon exploded with her Dark Lugia from the ocean. "Use Mist!"
A thick mist covered the dock, so thick that the tall skyscrapers of the city could not be seen.
"Good," she murmured. "Lugia, Psybeam!"
((Noodle. Three of your Arceus are under the ocean, drowing because Wurmple imbolized them. Just so you know.))
Neptune jumped onto Dark Lugia. The Pokemon dove down into the sea.
Neptune glanced around her. A dark spot told her the three Arceus were still drowning. She nodded to herself, then broke the surface of the water, climbing back to the dock.
"Serperior, Grass Knot!"
All around her Venus's and R's Pokemon tripped, and them Glaceon used Ice Shard on them, freezing the Staraptor and Shaymin.

((Actually, they aren't, because they were freed by the last one.))

R sighed. "Fine. I didn't want to do this, but.... Time to fight dirty." From her Bag, she grabbed four Smoke Balls and smashed them on the ground. Multi-colored smoke soared, covering the battlefield completely. One Arceus shielded her team with Protect, and they were spared from the smoke. She quickly used Spatial Rend, and they were suspended in time. She walked around, surveying the field. She smiled, and then released the power. Neptune's Pokemon were knocked away from the others, and an Arceus quickly melted the ice surrounding Staraptor and Shaymin. Just as quickly, she launched a ferious attack, slashing, burning and freezing everyone.

"No! Mew, Venasaur, and Brongzong! That does it! Time for my special weapon! Go Latios! Use Luster Purge!"

((When were they saved? You never posted about it. Come on, fight fair! I want to see some drama.))
Neptune blinked. R and Venus were fast, but she was the best at making traps.
"Serperior, Leech Seed!" she commanded. "Glaceon, Icy Wind! Wurmple, String Shot!"
Nodding at her brilliant work, she turned to her Pidove. "Use Gust!"
((Don't forget about Empoleon and Dark Lugia under the ocean. They will stay down there until you find them.))

Sam looked up at the big buildings as she stepped off of the boat that had just come from the Sinnoh region. She had ditched her Team Galatic uniform in order to blend in so as not to draw attention. It was stored away safely in her bag. She knew she'd hear about it from the other Commanders, but she didn't care. She was dressed in the outfit she wore before Team Galactic. Before her father enrolled her. Looking back, she saw the boat sail away. Now she wasn't sure that leaving her famailer region was such agood idea. It would be too much to ask Moltres to Fly her back. And she didn't have a Pokemon who knew Surf nor would she ask it to Surf her such a distance. She was stranded until someone was willing to take her back in a plane or a boat. She looked back at the city. The skyline amazed her. There was nothing like this in Sinnoh. She felt like a little kid again. A new region, new sights, new smells, new people, new Pokemon, and a new adventure. Not to mention a new job. As a Commander of Team Galactic. Promotion was sweet! She raced off into the city.

Neptune glanced over her shoulder. "Vulpecula, ((did I spell that right??)) I could use more support in this battle!" she called. "We're battling R and...Commander Venus, too." She shot a glare at Venus.

Sam wrote: "Sam looked up at the big buildings as she stepped off of the boat that had just come from the Sinnoh region. She had ditched her Team Galatic uniform in order to blend in so as not to draw attentio..."

((Uh, when did u become a Commander???))

((She did yesterday. We've been looking for two new Commanders, and both of you were our first choices!))

((Yep. Really? First choices? That's awesome sauce! And yes, you did. Sorry I had to pick such a difficult name but I think it's unique.))

"Alrighty!" Sam replied, pulling out Fox' Pokeball. She threw it. "Go Fox!" Her Eevee came out. "Use Wide Slash on Arceus!"

((I agree.))
"Grass Knot!" Neptune commanded her Serperior. "Pidove, Air Cutter!"

((Uh, no. I will not fight fair. We are EVIL, for StarClan's sake! EVIL!))

Venus grinned, and snickered under her breath, "This is going to get interesting. Plasma won't fight fair. I like it." She returned her Pokemon, and rushed off to a Pokemon Center. That should confuse everyone....

R glared after her deserting comrade. She quickly hopped onto an Arceus, morphing it into Unfezant. All of the others did the same. Rising rapidly in the air, she was able to avoid the attacks. Then, she commanded, "Dive Bomb!" and all of the Unfezants plummeted straight down, beaks extended. As they got closer, she changed them into three Mewtwos and three Enteis. "Fire Blast, Psybeam!" she screeched, and the two attacks combined to become one and create an explosion that would cause Confusion and Burns.
((Special Conditions, I am the masta of them!))

"Quick SafeGuard!" Sam shouted just seconds bfore the blast came. In the instant before, Fox used SafeGuard.
