[RAID] Stag Party

[Shaddaling]

(Lex pokemon are all green and out side of Spins, in their pokeball).

Cuties was not what he considered a Tyrantrum to be. He looked over Xerneas and then KO before releasing Spins, the Ariados stretching out before looking about keenly.

He muttered, rubbing his legs together to clean them.

Lex frowned slightly wondering if anyone brought max revives, the rockets would have to be freed but they would not be much use without pokemon but then their nerves could be shot. He tugged the hat down a bit over his eyes, listening.  

[Magician Arcana]

(Ko/Diantha)

Adam laughed softly at KO's declaration that he was such a fairy, "Yeah, Keith really does love Fairies.. I'm willing to stick around and take care of the rockets." He nodded and clapped KO on the back.  

[Gwennythe]

"Oh! Er, I'd feel bloomin' honoured to 'scort Zordon there back an' all, too!" Clancy piped up... So this was the plan? He didn't entirely get it, but he understood they were supposed to stay close.
All three of his pokémon, even Ditty, shot each other concerned looks as they heard Clancy speak.

---~~~---

"As rangers, we all care deeply for pokémon, and we all long to be closer to them..." Tambrey tried, with a smile. She understood where this was going and decided to weigh in too. "As much as we're in the wild the chance to spend time with such a magnificent legendary creature such as Xerneas," She flashed a subtle look at Clancy, appalled he'd spoken the wrong name "is really once in a lifetime..."  

[Suudonym]

(KO / Clancy / Tambrey)

The Champion smiled. "I understand; it really is a rare opportunity, and Xerneas in particular is so stunning and humbling to behold. For the time being, why don't we all return to the entrance together, and then we can determine how we'd like to split up?"  

[BlackFireKitsune]

Haltingly, uncertainly, the brunette slowly raised her arms and placed her hands atop her head as KO had instructed, given she had pitifully few options otherwise - but then he approached and requested her hands behind her back, so with a somewhat confused expression she moved them there instead. Until, that is, Neph shot a Spider Web that swiftly wrapped around her legs and she gave a short scream as she flailed her arms a bit and promptly fell over with a startled "oof!"

Luckily for KO he backed away - if he hadn't he may have found himself an unwitting target. Not content with just standing around, waiting for his fate to be decided, the blond agent suddenly ran towards Xerneas. The brunette made to reach for him as he ran past, but he was already out of reach. "Leo, wait! What are you doing?!"

"Leo," the elite barked immediately despite being unable to see his teammate, "I swear to god, whatever it is, don't you dare--"

"You guys can give up if you want," the blond growled as he foolishly launched himself at Xerneas, "but I won't!"  

[TawnyAngel]

[Leo, you idiot]

Phew, that would do for now. KO nodded to Diantha. "That sounds like- Wait!" Oh no, he was not dealing with dead Rockets today! "Arcanine, Extreme Speed! Fetch!"

Viceroy gave a happy bark and launched himself across the cavern at blinding speed in an attempt to grab the back of the male Agent's collar and haul him back over to KO, complete with happy wagging tail.  

[Shaddaling]

[Why is there always a crazy guy? Leo met Grims]

It seemed they would be escorting Diantha and the Xerneas to the entrance and what in the blazes did he think he was doing? Lex moved swiftly, pulling Grimlock's pokeball out and sent out the native fire type. "Grims! Hypnosis, don't let him pass."

Grimlock nodded and headed forward, eyes glowing as she sought out Leo's eyes to use her attack.

"Spins! Keep close and back her up with a Sucker Punch if you need to." He added.

Spins snorted but moved behind the Braixen. He snorted and settled in front of the Xerneas.  

[Gwennythe]

<> Neph hissed, watching the scene, and the pokémon below, going after the crazy 'Leo' charging at Xerneas. <> She twitched, with disappointment, at the fact the pokémon were trying to stop whatever would happen to the man now.  

[Blood_Goddess]

Jerome frowned at the sight of the Rocket trying to run off again, and his own team responding to it. More so at the words Lex had ordered his pokemon to do out.
"Back yer Pokemon off." the agent told Lex as he passed, making his way to man who had tried to make a run for it, pulling some rope out of his own
He didn't like any of this, these were their comrades, on the same team, how hard would it be just to let them know?

Reaching out to grab the man from the Archanine's mouth to restrain him. keeping his voice low he spoke to the man "We're yer back up, man, keep it DL."  

[Shaddaling]

[Jerome/ Neph]

"Grims, back off, same Spins." He motioned them back, glad the Arcanine had got their first. He rather not injured teammates, but if he needed to to keep in cover... specially with the champion nearby, well.. Grimlock was having pretty good luck making people sleep.

Grimlock puffed her checks up but returned, sinking in close to her trainers foot.

Spins snorted and went to join Neph.  

[Magician Arcana]

(Shawn)

Adam stood tensely, watching the scene go down. He relaxed visibly and shifted closer to Shawn, "Your pokemon okay? Do you have a revive on you?"  

[BlackFireKitsune]

((Guys, please don't assume various moves or attempts have succeeded until we post saying one way or another. Thanks!))

Luckily for Viceroy - and probably the Rocket himself, as well - his attack got him close enough just in time, and Leo's reaching hands missed their mark as he found himself suddenly whisked away from Xerneas. "What are you-- Put me down!" He shouted, flailing his arms and trying to drive his elbow back into the Arcanine's face, either not hearing or ignoring Jerome - except to try to lash out at him, as well.  

[Gwennythe]

... And now they /had/ stopped the charging rocket. Blah.
<> Neph griped unhappily, then watched as Spins joined her. <> She chittered and gestured at Xerneas.  

[TawnyAngel]

[Spider Friends]

Viceroy's voice was rather muffled by the collar in his mouth but still audible.  

[Shaddaling]

(Viceroy/ Neph)

[Want to web a human? ] Spins question, motioning with a forelimb towards Viceroy. Spider friend his rear legs.
