Poke'mon Battlegrounds- CHAPTER 2 [OPEN]

[TyranntX]

Xeen - Kabutops

"You may be right, we are new to this land. they might be poke'mon only indigenous to this side of Xecra" he exhaled bubbles, he then took a look at the trails seeing if it was still there, thankfully it was and they team continued on "I hope we get there soon" he said exhaling bubbles.

one hour later at the Kingdom of the Underdark. one of the Hooded poke'mon arrived at the front gate. the only guard was a lone Steelix, who stopped them before they could enter. the mysterious poke'mon didn't seem to be after anything of malice intent, but he did seem rather strange. even up close the poke'mon was unidentifiable.

Armadon(Aggron), Steelix (NPC), ??? 1 (NPC)

"HALT STRANGER!" Roared the big metal snake, as he looked down at the hooded being "You are on the territory of the Kingdom of the underdark... what business do you have here?" He demanded. the hooded poke'mon remained silent for a moment and then spoke clearly "I wish to have a word With your King..." The Steelix just grunted in frustration "Do you not know that it is night fall? My King is at rust. be gone with you" he snorted. But the Hooded one simply remained calm and said "I will not leave until I speak to him", This only angered the Steel type even more "I am the LAW nave, you will do as I say or Die right here!" he yelled. the all of the sudden the ground shook beneath them, and Commander Armadon rose from the ground using dig. "Whats all the racket Soldier! Can't you see that there are poke'mon TRYING TO SLEEP!" said the commander snapping at the Steelix. He was very angry as the yelling woke him up as he was trying to get some rest after nearly dying tonight. "I-I'm s-s-sorry sir b-but this poke'mon... H-h-he said he wanted t-to see the king" said the Steelix, trembling in fear in his own armor as he knows what the commander dose to insubordinates.

"Thats the Problem? YOU FOOL! weather the king is awake or asleep or if he is here or not... YOU ADDRESS IT TO ME!" growled Armadon. "I don't mean to impose but... may I see the king now?" asked the Poke'mon, sounding rather innocent. "Your Leader is asleep at this moment and still has other matters to attend to. I'll be sure you will meet him but it wont be for at least 3 days." said Armadon. he then turned to the gate and opened it "In the mean time you may stay in any one of the Inns in the city. but don't cause any trubble.. I have my eye on you" said the Commander as he dug back underground and made his way to the barracks to hopefully get back to sleep. the mysterious poke'mon entered the city and headed to the nearest inn to rent a room for the time he will be here until he could meet up with the king.

[Nessie-Gyarados]

Nessie looked at her uncle, hoping he would be able to give them a definite answer. The old Gyarados bent down but was silent, almost pensive. "There are three parts of the Orb. One I know is hidden in the water kingdom. Let us head back there. Once we have it in our possession, finding the other two will be easier. Though I am sure one is with Lord Kyogre. He will not be easy to find. Maybe Lord Rain could do it. To find the third you will have to find the land in the east. Nessie, find the deepest cavern in King Otto's kingdom. In that, you will find an old damaged statue of our ancestors. I believe it was called Gyarados Cave before it was submerged. That is where one piece is hidden." With that, the old Gyarados left, mumbling to himself. Nessie looked at the King and her Lord for instructions.

[Ragnar]

Rain- Suicune

"Agreed, we will divide ourselves to cover more grounds" Rain said looking at Otto. "may i request one of the gyarados to escort me in this eastern place of you speak off" Rain addresses the gyarados tribe "..anybody else who are interested to come along are gladly accepted" he spoke to the people around him

Otto (Samurott)

Otto chuckled, and then spoke to Rain.

"I'll let the Gyarados decide for themselves whether or not they want to go with you, Lord Rain. Also, about searching the East... I actually sent my Adviser and my Captain out to search for the Orb before I came here. Once we've retrieved the first piece, I'll let them know that they may have a better time if they search the East, and I'll also let them know that you'll be on your way to help them out."

Otto then started to head out, but stopped and spoke to Rain again.

"And a quick bit of advice: Keep an eye on my Adviser, she's a bit of a trickster. She sometimes can give you the slip when you're not looking, as she often does with my Captain. I'll be waiting on the northwest edge of the Camp with my Elite Guard for the Search Party so that we can start looking for the Water Castle's Blue Shard when you're ready."

Otto headed to the 501st, and then the Dewotts and Samurott went to the Northwest part of the camp, where they waited.

[Yash]

[Nessie-Gyarados]

"My Lord, I will have the finest of my tribe go with you to the east. I would like to come myself, however I believe I will be more useful searching for the Gyarados Cave, or it's remains. I will join the King in his quest. I will take your leave now sir. I wish you luck in your mission. We all will need it." She then left the Suicun and made her way towards her tribe. Now I have to split my tribe and leave them as well. Who will look after them? I feel that my mission could place them in danger. I will have to ask King Otto to provide them with protection. I know my brethren, they will all want to go and help Lord Rain and nobody will be left to guide the tribe.

As Nessie spoke with her tribe about their tasks, she realised that the flying type she had seen earlier had not stopped at their camp. I guess it was from the Magic Kingdom. It must have gone back home. With that she moved on to complete her work. On her way, she spotted a familiar grass type. The Maractus, who had stood up for her during her arrest. "Hello little one. I never really had the chance to thank you for what you did for me before. It seems you found Lord Rain and got him to come help me. I appreciate what you did for me. I will tell everyone in my tribe to treat you as a part of our family. You are now a brother to me and my tribe, even if you are not blood. You are great of heart, and that is what matters to us." She rambled on for a little bit, before realising that she neither allowed the Maractus to speak, nor did she know it's name. "I seem to have rambled. I apologise,-? I'm afraid we haven't even been properly introduced and I don't know your name. I am Nessie, one of the tribe leaders." She waited for the little pokemon to reply.

[shidew-Sableye] & [Valerie-Togetic]

The Togetic had flown past a camp and a tribe of Gyarados. She spoke to one on her way, managing to get a few details about the plan and what they where doing there. She then went into the city. She caught hold of one of the palace guards. She questioned him and got an idea of what had happened in her absence. She made her way to the throne room and reported to the king. She found it in a haphazard manner, with some psychic types helping fix the damage. On the thrones sat the King and Queen in discussion.

"M'Lord, M'Lady. If I may enter." She waited to be called in. Shidew said,"Come Valerie, tell us what happened?". She replied,"I have finished my mission, Your Highness. Just as you had asked, I have made contact with the Toxia Badlands, and spoken with their leaders. They are ready to form an alliance with us if either you or Queen Crystal just visit them once. I presume they would like a little reassurance, that is all."

Shidew looked over to Crystal, thinking about the recent events. "Fine, we will do that, however as you may have seen, the Rain the Suicune has requested our assistance in a peace keeping force. After some consideration, I think it would be better for us to be involved in it. You can speak with the Captain and arrange for the troops to be sent."

"With respect to that sir, I was talking with one of the Gyarados outside and it seems they have decided to go after the Orbs. I believe our men would be excellent additions to their teams. With your permission I would like to send some troops to aid them."

"I see, so that is what Otto is planning. Very well. Send in a few men. Also have an escort prepared. I think the Queen should go to the Toxia Badlands. What do you think, Crystal?"

((I need to know what is the deal with Ignis and Dragan?? Also, I am waiting on Wander and Commander before I will get involved with the team searching for Groudon..))

[Komodojoe]

Sir Darius (Gallade)

Sir Darius entered the castle with haste. When he did so, it was easy to see how the earthquake affected what was within it's walls. There were cracks in almost every wall. There were suits of armor and statues that had fallen over. Even parts of the ceiling had fallen to the ground. It was a dreadful sight for Darius to see the castle in it's current condition. It was then that a Kirlia had approached Darius and began to speak. "Ah, Captain. It's good to see that you're alright. There is no need to fear for the King and Queen. I can assure you that they are safe and unharmed." Darius sighed in relief when the Kirlia said that. "That's good to hear. At least there seems to be a few things that are going right... despite everything else that's happened today. Where are they now?" Darius asked, and the Kirlia answered. "Well, as of right now, they're in the royal chambers with miss Valerie. It would seem as though she has returned from her mission with a success." The Kirlia smiled. "Looks like the good and the bad really do even out when given enough time, huh?" Darius smiled back in agreement. "Yeah. Looks like it. Now we just have to wait for these damages to be repaired and everything will be as it should be." He looked down the hallway that lead to the throne room. "Anyways, I should probably inform them of our current situation concerning the capital and it's people." He then looked back at the Kirlia. "And you should get back to what you were doing." The Kirlia nodded. "Of course." She said before walking off to continue her task. Afterwards, Sir Darius proceeded down the hallway that lead to the throne room until he finally reached it's doors.

Atlas (Golurk) and it's scouting team's Weavile

Some time had passed since that left the capital before they finally arrived at the ruins. They were a bit bigger than they looked from a distance. Then again, quite a few things seemed to have that effect. "Well, here we are." The Weavile said. After examining the ruins from its edge, Atlas knew that the Weavile was right about one thing: the ruins looked almost like they weren't at all touched by the earthquake that had shaken the land (and... you know... the world).They both approached the inscriptions on the wall to examine them. And what they saw on the wall were rows of a familiar text. "Um... sir?" The Weavile spoke again. "Forgive me if I'm wrong, but this looks like it was written in Braille." Atlas shook it's head, knowing that much was obvious. "That's because it was written in Braille. However, this is something that can be looked at later." It then turned to the entrance to the inner part of the ruins. "Right now, we have more pressing matters to attend to." That being said, both of them began to approach the entrance of the ruins' inner chambers.

[Aurorix]

Titania - Gardevior & Zabuza - Frokie

"Well, I guess we should talk to him now." The frog said awkwardly, watching that scene go down made him uncertain in how to react. Him and Titania went up to the Steelix when the Fairy-Type spoke up. "So, would you mind if we entered as well? Though we don't wish to speak with your king like the other guy." The Gardevior said with a little giggle at the end. She'd hope that talking a little more casually would make the Steelix more likely to let them in without much trouble.

Crystal - Espeon

"I had the same idea, I'll head out right away." She said before heading out of the city heading towards Toxia Badlands to make the treaty. She didn't want to waste precious time on getting escorts or chit chat. The sooner they could untie the world the better.

[TyranntX]

Steelix (NPC)

"And who Dare I ask are you three?" The Metal serpent glared at the team. He towered over them and he looked right into their eyes "What business do you have here?" He then slowly slithered over to them trying to size them up in hopes he could scare the answers out of them.

Xeen - Kabutops

"why are we here for? I ask because you are dealing with a kingdom that up until tonight we though didn't exist" he said exhaling bubbles, looking right at Titania. He knew that he might be able to bring down a fully grown steelix, but he was exhausted from traveling, and he wasn't the only one with a type advantage. "And speaking of, who was that other guy? Is he with the magic Kingdom too?"

[Ragnar]

Rain - Suicune

Rain ponder for a moment, before heading to the northern part of the camp. "King Otto," he called out.

"What do you have in mind in searching of this blue crystal? you know I could go there alone to spare you the trouble of sending some of your man to the east" Rain said as he walk towards the long line of Dewotts, standing out there like a sore thumb and waited for the Samurott to reply.

[Darvan Korematsu]

Alucard and Ulkina (Gengar and Latias)

Alucard floated around the outside of the castle dejected, looking down at the hard ground. Why did Ulkina have to sell him out like that? Just why? He looked at the guards posted at the fron gate. They gazed at him, but paid him no mind. They hadn't really cared about him since they found out he was not responsible for all the false accusations Syni brought forth. After the events of the past few days, he was deeply considering that alone time he first proposed to Ulkina, except he was really starting to see some good in the alone part. He wanted to go away for a while. To get answers. He wanted answers badly, the desire eating away at his thoughts. Who was he before he died? How did he die? Why did Ulkina actually seemed familiar to him? He needed to consult the Dragon and from there on out he would be able to plan his next move according to the wishes of her. So he sought her out.

Lo and behold as soon as he started his search, Ulkina came swooping through the doors, mildly surprising the guards, not pressing on in her usual acrobatic display, but in a serious stride for once. She looked...changed from when Alucard had originally been seperated from her. She didn't hum lightly to herself like she used to. She didn't look around in splendor at the sights of the world, like she used to. Her eyes no longer possessed the wide-eyed naive gaze of a little girl. But the one thing that wrenched Alucard above all, was that she was independent. She presented herself in a regal gait, much like she professed to Azauqyar. He looked down at the ground again in disappointment. That was it. He'd actually started to grow attached to her after all these years, feeding her and educating her, and maybe now he had to move on. The red dragon caught a glimpse of Alucard, and suddenly a small smile lit up her face in some cheer. Alucard almost smiled too, but now wasn't the time for that.

Ulkina practically beamed as she flew over to Alucard. "Brother! Where have you been? It's been scary around here without you."

Alucard continued to stare into the ground dejected. "So you've finally sold us out."

Ulkina placed a hand on her chest in mild shock. "What do you mean? How did I sell us out?"

Alucard frowned. "You know damn well what you said back there in the throne room about me. I was there. I didn't want to show myself to you or the green dragon." Alucard looked up at Ulkina, a steady stream of tears forming below his eyes. "You've done broken my dead heart Ulkina. You should have known all along I wasn't your brother. You should have known I was just a broken spirit, with nothing but a drive. I need to find out why I came back. You came along though, and you lit up my depressed self. You were my drive...but now..."

Ulkina's smile faded away to a look of sorrow. "B-broth-" she began, but Alucard looked her in the eyes, knowing she'd called him wrong. "Alucard? I'm sorry I said that about you in the throne room. I now have a purpose though, and I forgot all about you. I have a nation that requires me. You've taught me. You've sheltered me since I discovered you years ago. What are you going to do now?"

Alucard looked back up at Ulkina. "I think I need some alone time. I need to get away from this debacle I've caused. I need to let you flourish in your enviornment. You have a real brother who gave his life away just so he could see you again. I didn't want to steal that from you Ulkina. You're growing into a strong independent girl, and I appreciate that. I need to leave though." He turned away from Ulkina and started to float away.

"Alucard," Ulkina called out. "No, Brother. I need just one last thing from you if you really go."

Alucard wheeled around. "What is it?" Ulkina pressed her hand over her heart. "Somewhere out there, is the old house of me and my brother Eric. Eric told me there was a treasure stored within that house that holds an enormous value to him, and he said I'd learn why. If you ever find our old house, could you look?"

Alucard nodded to Ulkina. "What does it look like?" he asked. "You'll know Alucard. You'll just have to go with the feeling." He smiled and patted Ulkina on thr shoulder. "Good luck then Brother." Ulkina said, and then Alucard floated away without second thought drifting away from the hell he had been in for the past weeks.

Ulkina wiped away a tear of her own as Alucard slowly vanished into the distance. "Now to find those accursed dragons. I need to deal with the demon girl." She tore past the guards, looking for Stratos, the only one of the two she believed was still in the city.

[Komodojoe]

Sir Darius (Gallade)

As Sir Darius was about to open the door to the throne room when it was opened from the other side. The first figure that he saw was none other than Queen Crystal herself walking out. While he was relieved to see her unharmed, he was also a bit surprised to see her right in front of him so suddenly. He quickly began to bow. "M-Milady. It's good to see that you're alright." He said as he realized that she looked like she was about to head out. "May I ask where it is that you're going?"

Atlas (Golurk) and it's scouting team's Weavile

Once they approached the entrance to the inner depths of the ruins, Atlas raised it's hand to signal for the Weavile to hold it's position. "You will remain out here while I take a look inside. We don't know what's on the inside of these walls. We don't need any surprises coming from the way we came as well." The Weavile nodded his head and turned around to keep watch. Atlas then proceeded to the ruins' inner chambers.

Atlas (Golurk) & ??? (Registeel)

The inner chambers of the ruins were dim when atlas took it's first steps inside. It seemed like it only had one room inside. Every wall had numerous inscriptions and drawings on them, along with unlit torches above them. And in the middle stood a lone figure. It seemed like a statue made of metal. Atlas walked further in to examine the figure when it began to move, and eventually speak. "Who is it that has broken the seal and awaken me from my slumber?" The figure asked. "I am Commander Atlas of the Kingdom of Land. I was told of some ruins that had been found and I came to investigate. Who is it that I am speaking to?" As soon as Atlas finished speaking, the torches mysteriously lit up to reveal that the silhouette was none other than Registeel. "Ah, I see. So it really is you." Atlas said, somewhat in awe of seeing the Iron Pokémon standing in front of it. The Registeel pointed at Atlas as it began to speak again. "Explain to me why it is that I have been reawakened. Do I have a purpose, or am I to go back into slumber because one was just curious?" The Regi asked. "Well, this war that we are currently in is taking a real toll on us as a whole. We could use someone like you within our ranks." Atlas responded. The Registeel seemed somewhat disappointed. "So it is conflict once again..." The Iron pokemon paused to consider Atlas' offer. "... Very well then. I will join your cause if you can best me in battle. Consider this to be a test to see if you are worthy enough to lead me." Atlas balled it's hands into fists as it prepared for a fight. "So it is a test of strength, then? Very well. I will accept your challenge. Prepare yourself for a real fight, as I will not go down easily." Both pokemon went into their battle poses as they readied themselves for the battle of their lives.

[TyranntX]

Sunrise has started and the Land kingdom's "GHT" (Groudon Hunting Team) has arrived at a Cave in the land known as "Greenwater Swamp". The team stand at the ready waiting for the command from their king to enter. it is unknown as to weather or not the behemoth resides here, or even on the western half of Xecra. but thats not going to stop the land kingdom from going in anyway.

Krusher - Tyrantrum

The massive Poke'mon gazed into the darkness, using his strong sense of smell to see if there are any hostile poke'mon inside. But the stench of swamp water makes such a task difficult even for him. "I want all fire types to do their bests to light the way, there is no telling as to what is down there" he spoke out to his troop. the Land emperor then turned his head to his commander. "You feeling alright? You haven't said a word since we left out boarders." He said to the Fire dog.

[Aurorix]

Crystal - Espeon

Crystal wasn't expecting Darius to be right behind the door of the throne room but she expected he would come sooner or later. "Oh, Darius its good to see you're in one piece. I'm heading out to Toxia Badlands. They requested a meeting with the king or queen so I'm going. With all that's been happening lately I hope this can go over smoothly. That's why I'm heading out as quickly as I can, so we can bring good news to the people and have them be happy once again." She spoke to Darius. She was in a bit of a rush, the more time wasted would mean less time to get there.

Zabuza - Frokie & Titania - Gardevior

"If he was with the magic kingdom, then he must've been a new recruit. But for all I know he's just a wanderer." Titania said answering Xeen's question. Zabuza decided to speak up to the Steelix, "Look, we don't mean any trouble. We just wanted to rest in an Inn in this city after our long journey. So would you mind letting us in?"

[Omega_Ra1der]

Ignis (Entei) Dragan (Garchomp) Rader (Manectric)

Ignis/Dragan

The Pokemon was thinking about the vision and was thinking "What it means? Why me and Rain got that vision? What was that mysterious pokemon that looks familiar? More importantly,is it related to me?" after that thought finished, he was snapped back to reality when the king asked him " Ah, your Jawiness, I was thinking of something. About me and Rain. And one other pokemon that I can't seems to put my paw on it." He turned to the Inferapes and yelled "Boys, you lead because your heads will light the way inside!" When the Inferapes moved, Ignis saw something in the sky, a pokemon that was flying at a high speed. Meanwhile in Dragan's end, he was flying at a high speed. He saw the captain with the king He quickly maneuvered to land. When he landed, he spoke "Captain, I have a report to the king."

Rader

When the leaders left, he felt the need to tell the Bovine family and spoke "Well, if you excuse me. May I guard this field in case whatever caused the quake were to come here." He proceeded to step outside and barked "Luxrays, half of you, scan the whole area with your x-ray vision. Gliscors, continue your orders but report to me if you see anything suspicious. I will be talking with the messagers to send the king a message about our situation. Move out!" The troops responded "Yes sir!"

[TyranntX]

Krusher - Tyrantrum

"What is it soldier? what is so important that it must hold us from seeking out the Behemoth?" Said the massive Fossil poke'mon looking at the Dragon type. (first Kyogure, then another one of the dog trio, THEN Groudon wakes up.... whats next?) the King thought to him self. "Well? OUT WITH IT!" roared out.

Steelix (NPC) & Xeen - Kabutops

"And you expect me to just BUY THAT?" The Steel type growled. he then glared deep into the bubble frog's eyes "I'm sorry but I can't let just any one in here!" he grunted. "He said we didn't want trouble, so why can't you just let us pass, I'm a rock type too so why can't you just let me in and have me keep an eye on them?" Said Xeen as he exhaled bubbles. "Because I have no proof that you are what you say, I don't even know if your are poke'mon!" Roared the metal serpent, as he sized him self up to tower him self over them "Be gone with you, lest you want to be crushed by my 'Rock Tomb' " Snarled the Steelix

[Aurorix]

Titania - Gardevior

"I don't think you're commander would like you crushing us. I mean we did kinda help him during a battle you know and I'm sure he wouldn't like being woken up again just because you made a huge fuss over this. But that's not our choice now is it. So why don't you call that pokemon that just dug away a moment ago and ask him what he thinks of us, though I'm sure he won't be pleased being bothered again seeing his reaction the first time." The psychic type said a little annoyed. Proof that we're actually pokemon, what kinda excuse is that? I swear if he comes up with another excuse after this one I'll get really mad. Though once he calls his commander comes he'll get what's coming to him.

[TyranntX]

Steelix (NPC)

"T-t-that won't be necessary" said the steelix as he trembled in is armor. He the turned to the gate and unlocked it as quickly as possible "here go on inside and get some rest, JUST DON'T TELL THE COMMANDER!" He said some what terrified. The metal snake then moved out of the way and let the team pass.

[Omega_Ra1der]

Dragan (Garchomp)

The champion spoke "Your Jawiness, I have two reports, one from my end, the other from the sneasels end which I sent them to the somber plateaus. I start with my end, we didn't find any pokemon there in the badlands but we wouldn't be standing here if it wasn't support from the magic kingdom or from the looks of it. Nothing else to report on that end. Onto the sneasels end, they did talked with the locals. They would help us with the reconstruction of our piers but in return, we need to reach an agreement with the sky,water and magic but not to pick on your thought process. but why you took the queen hostage?" He waited for the king respond and orders

[TyranntX]

Krusher- tyrantrum

"Take your forced to protect those pokemon, no matter what happens I want them to be loyal to the land kingdom" he said to his champion. He then turned to his search team " move out, if Groudon is here then you know what to do" he roared out as he and his forces entered the cave.

[Komodojoe]

Sir Darius (Gallade)

"I see." Darius said as he began to think. The Queen seemed like she was in a rush, but Darius wasn't about to let her highness leave without an escort. The near endless amount of possibilities of danger made him fearful of what might happen. Little did Darius know that the thoughts that came after he said quietly rather than it being kept in his head. "... But most of the troops are either helping with cleaning up and rebuilding the capital or standing on guard to keep it's citizens from getting themselves hurt..." Ignoring the fact that he was speaking when he realized that he was, he same up with the one solution that wouldn't disturb everything else that was going on. "Alright then. I'll be the one to escort you." He realized that he might've been taking too much of an initiative. "...That is, of course, if you'll have me do so."

Atlas (Golurk) & ??? (Registeel)

Pokémon Battle! Registeel's test

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLWODOpJsfY

A staredown ensued before both pokemon began to charge at one another to attack. Atlas managed to get the first strike with Hammer Arm. The Registeel made a close second when it hit with Iron Head, sending Atlas backwards a couple of feet. Using the opportunity that the Registeel gave itself, it used iron Defense as it's combatant recovered from it's previous impact. Atlas also managed to use Iron Defense as it got up. The Registeel Mirror Shot after Atlas recovered. The attack hit, but it wasn't enough to make the Golurk fall over a second time. Afterwards, they both charged at each other once again, with the Registeel using Ice Punch and Atlas using Power-Up Punch. Both attacks hit, but while Atlas took a hit from one of it's weaknesses, it also got a power boost in the process. Atlas followed up with Drain Punch. The Registeel used Mirror Shot again in an attempt to keep the Golurk back, however, this only managed to slow Atlas down rather than stop the attack altogether. The Drain Punch made an impact with a critical hit, taking a lot out of the Registeel while Atlas made quite a recovery. Atlas then attacked with a Fire Punch while the Registeel set up another Ice punch. Both attacks collided, creating a shockwave that made the torches go out. The Registeel was about to use the close range for another Iron Head when Atlas vanished into the darkness. The Registeel then used protect to prevent itself from taking any serious damage from Atlas' attack. Unfortunately for the Regi, this was Phantom Force, not Shadow Force. The attack bypassed the Registeel's protection and sent it flying into the wall behind it, bringing the Iron Pokémon to it's knees. "Very good. Aright then, you have passed the test." The Registeel said. The battle was over.

Atlas- Victorious

Reigsteel- Subdued

After the battle

The Registeel struggled to get back up on it's two feet after taking such a hard hit, but managed to do so. "It's been centuries since I've battled like I did today." It said. "You have fought well, commander. As I promised, I will join your army. I am called Pavise. You have fought me in battle, so you know what I am capable of. And with that, I will trust you with where you place me within your ranks." Atlas was pleased to know that the Regi can keep it's word. And above that, Atlas was also satisfied with how Pavise fought. If that Drain Punch didn't make a critical hit, the commander may have actually lost that battle. "Actually, I've been trying to find a missing piece for the Precipice Brigade, a new team that I have been putting together." Atlas pointed at the Regsteel. "... And you seem to fit in that spot quite nicely. Congratulations, Pavise. I have decided to make you the leader of the Precipice Brigade." Pavice made a movement that seemed like a nod. "As you wish." The Regi said. "Atlas, you said that you were a commander, yes? May I ask who it is that is your ruler?" It asked. And Atlas answered. "Our King is a Tyrantrum that goes by the name of Krusher. You may speak with him later, however, as he, along with our Captain and one of their teams, are currently searching for Gorudon." The Golurk said. "And even if he wasn't, you would have to wait anyways. We have quite a long walk back to the capital." Atlas turned toward the entrance. "Now come, Pavise. We've spent enough time here as it is. We shouldn't stand around here too much in case something else were to happen in the King's absence." That being said, they began to leave the ruins and head back to the capital.

Dragan (Garchomp) Rader (Manectric)

Dragan responded "Yes, your majesty." He proceeded to step out of the cavern and roared at a pitch that told the surrounding gabites to gather around Dragan. Once they gathered, he told them "Half of you, go back to the capital and get the noiverns, audinos, and the lower ranked golurks. Tell them to come the somber plateaus. Remainder of you, come with me. We are heading to the plateaus ourselves." The dragons responded with a yes sir. 2 of them proceeded to fly toward the capital and the remaining stuck with Dragan. He spoke "Take flight. NOW!" After that quote, he soared up into the sky and the 3 gabites soared up with him. He signaled to fly at high speed.

Rader

He spoke with the royal messager and told him "Send this back to commander Atlas, you will know when you see him. Tell him I am alright and we got one-thirds the fields under our controls but we need the king to secure the deal and I figured I might need help with the negotiations with the other leaders. Course, one of them said trading rights with the kingdom but one leader said they are loyal to the other leaders and won't join the land kingdom. Off you go." (I am just going to assume it's a starly for now) The starly respected him and flew off to give the message.

Titania - Gardevior & Zabuza - Frokie

"It's about time." Titania said with a tone of frustration in her voice. She entered the city just wanting to get this over with and return to the group. Zabuza was just glad they didn't have to cause a commotion. "Come on Xeen, shouldn't keep the lady waiting for us." He said before catching up with Titania as they looked for an inn.

Crystal - Espeon

The psychic type giggled at Darius's request to escort her, "Oh Darius, you know I can really take care of myself. I just got careless once but I won't let that happen a second time. But if you really want to come then you're free to join me." After that she continued her way to Toxia Badlands in hopes she could get this done ASAP.

Sir Darius (Gallade)

"Alright then. I'll follow your lead." He said as he started to follow Queen Crystal. That stopped shortly after when the Kirlia from before went up to him. "Um... sir? Since you're going to be escorting the Queen, what should we do if anyone else needs any assistance regarding any of our soldiers?" She asked in case either Valerie or Eve needed anything. Darius didn't even think of that. He handed the Kirlia a peculiar looking coin. "If anyone needs anything regarding these matters, just tell them to take this and head over to the barracks. Most of the pokemon from this particular group are probably helping out with the capital's current condition, but there should also be a few on standby just in case." The captain said. There's only one group that he could be talking about. The Kirlia nodded and walked off again. Afterwards, Sir Darius made haste to catch up with Crystal as his mind began to drift off. "I wonder how Velvet and the others are doing on their end..." He thought out loud.

Sora (Excadrill)

Sora had gathered his legions of miners and set off for their mining expiedition for several days after Napoleon agreedto let him excavate for the new powerful typing gems. He made reasonable progress with his soldiers and miners under his belt, leading them with his refined sonar. He felt proud of himself. Almost smug, but not so much, because he knew his ability of sonar was indispensable to the Underdark Kingdom. Although, something had been bothering him as of late. After a few days on their excursion, the mining team headed back to the town, and Sora slipped away from the team. After the guards and higher advisors worried about him, they sent a scouting team to find him. Little did they know, the old battered mole sat alone in his thoughts in one of the miserable dive bars of the Kingdom. The mole slurred and cursed at the tender to give him more alcohol. He forcefully slammed more of his gems from his personal collection on the counter as payment. Sora sighed to himself, whike hiccuping, absolutely plastered drunk.

Azauqyar- Rayquaza

The Elder Wyrm halted in his path at the sight of the massive force crossing the waters down below. His ancient, sulfuric eyes scanned them all, ants marching upon the sea from his height, though he saw it all clearly even from the lofty perch. The bridge itself, much to his surprise, seemed to be made of ice, or at least some other type of crystalline substance. Fitting, given that the majority of those crossing seemed to hail from colder lands... Ice types, countless troops of them, all flowing one after the other...

"So the rumors hold true..." The old god noted, picking up speed once more as he continued his blazing trail across the planet's outer atmosphere. "And it seems the flames of war will soon be fanned anew on the continent soon... " That was no suprise to the god however. He knew from experience that the brief periods of stillness during the warring of mortals never lasted... not unless the stillness was shared by the corpses of one side of the conflict or the other. The fires would continue to rage until someone either surrendered, someone was conquered, or everyone was dead... and sometimes not even that was always enough.

A flare of lightning in the distance caught his attention just as he passed by... given the circumstances, he would've simply kept going with little thought to it... but not this time. This time, right here and now, he could feel a particular prescence behind the bolt... a God, a minor one, but still a deity nonetheless. Unlike Aquero or Groudon though, he was not familiar with this particular prescence...

"Only one way to determine it..." He adjusted his course through the air, flanking off to the right as he sped towards the source of the charge...

Stratos- Salamence

The city seemed more or less still intact, much to the giant's relief. Though a few cracks were visible here and there, the injuries were few, inconsequential at the very least. After a few rounds of flight around the place firing off temporal roars to undo the worst of the damages he spotted, Stratos turned course back towards the keep, knowing already that Azauqyar was gone... everyone and everyone's mother had seen the god speed off.

He had no idea however, that anyone was searching for him at the moment...
