“Oh…well you’re here anyway! I’m not actually sure who that is, beyond a Bandra goon,” Mina continued. “But the champion called him Tom.”

Mina:
The Breeder looks at you and smiles answering:
"He's right over there."
You following the pointing finger straight to Spencer, who is chatting with some Trainers about breeding.
Spencer looks at you and asks:
"How have you been? Everything ok?"

“I’m fine,” Mina replied with a faint smile. She looked around for eavesdroppers as unobtrusively as she could manage, then continued in a low voice, “Listen, Spencer, does your dad have any dirty laundry?”

Spencer looks at you, intrigued by the question and answers:
"Not that I know of. But then again, seeing as how he was the Elder of Hillsbreak before he got thrown into the Spectral Dimension, one could never know..."
He ponders for a moment, but can't come up with anything. He then asks:
"Why the question?"

Mina blinked, having the distinct feeling she’d just been seriously misunderstood.
“Houndour here,” she tapped the dented Pokeball on her belt, “is my keeper from the tournament, and he knows Odor Sleuth.” Mina started to giggle, and had to work for a moment to repress it. “I meant literal dirty laundry Spencer. Old socks or something. Anything that might still smell like him after a couple of months. And yes,” she held up a hand to forestall him, “I know the Spectral Dimension is bad for him. I just want to cover all my bases.”

Spencer blushes and then answers:
"That's what I get for over-analyzing stuff."
He then ponders for a moment and continues:
"Well, I have this..."
He then pulls out a blue scarf from out of his pocket and hands it to you, saying:
"This is all I have. Everything else is at Hillsbreak, if it hasn't been thrown out yet. Besides, it's Bandra occupied. I'll never be able to get in there now."
He frowns.

"That's what I get for over-analyzing stuff."
“Aw, don’t worry about it,” Mina replied, still suppressing giggles, “When people start disappearing and criminal organizations are running amuck, someone coming up to ask you about old shirts is NOT the first thing to come to mind.”
"Well, I have this..." Spencer pulled out the scarf and gave it to her. "This is all I have. Everything else is at Hillsbreak, if it hasn't been thrown out yet. Besides, it's Bandra occupied. I'll never be able to get in there now."
Mina released Houndour and held out the scarf to him. “Houndour, I need you to use Odor Sleuth. Do you think you can identify the man this belonged to?”
Houndour leaned towards the scarf, sniffing energetically. His nose traveled up, up, up the length of the scarf to Mina’s hand, at which point he jerked back and started sniffing again. Eventually his head drifted away from it and he started sniffing the air instead; his head tilted over to Spencer and he pawed the Breeder’s knee, looking back at Mina inquiringly.
“No, it’s not him. There should be someone else there. Can you smell them?”
Houndour made a frustrated whining noise in his throat before starting to sniff the scarf again. At long last he barked, tail wagging happily.
“Awesome.” She handed Spencer back the scarf. “Thank you.”

((Today or Tomorrow or...WHATEVER IT IS!))
Christian started thinking about the situation, he sat down in a meditating pose((with his legs, not his hands)) and studied his opponent and his pokémon.
After a while Christian clapped his hands and stood up again "That's it! Why didn't I think of that earlier?" he though that he had been thniking, but soon discovered he had shouted it out as everyone looked at him. Christian turned to the team brandra grunt and started on his little speech "Well, mr. breeder-who-is-secretly-a-team-brandra-grunt-or-something, I figured out how we can beat you quick and simple, of course I'm not sure if this would be very liked idea from these rule loving people besides me but-" at that movement Christian's cell phone rang, he picked it up and said "Hello and good day to you!" Christian then stood there for awhile listening, then he smiled and started chatting like he had forgotten he was in a battle.
After awhile it seemed like the guy on the other end mentioned team brandra and Christian remebered what kind of situation he was in "Ohh yeah, Team Brandra, that reminds me that I'm fighting one of their members right now!" Christian then suddenly streached his arm with the cell phone away from his ear and a angry voice from the other end which seemed to be shouting was heard, but the words was unclear. Christian took his cell phone back to his ear and said shortly "Be right back, just have to issue an order or two... or three!" Christian then turned back to the battle and said "Ahh, where were we? Ohh yes, how to defeat you! It's quite simpel you see, even thou I know we are suppose to be the good guys who does NOT break rules, but as you are team brandra, who does MORE than break rules, I think it's okay." Christian used the hand which he did not have the cell phone in((Left Hand)) and took fourth two pokéballs "Scyther, Slakoth, GO!" he shouted and the two pokémons materialized. "Now I know that I could use ALL of my pokémons, but I prefere only using three." he said trying to convince the other guy he had more than one pokémon.
"Scyther, Pursuit!"
"Slakoth, Yawn!"
"Tyrogue, Helping Hand on Scyther!"

((Spencer and Mina))
Spencer takes the scarf back and smiles, saying:
"No problem. Do you need anything else?"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
((Battle at the Arena  ))
The Breeder looks at the large group of Pokémon staring him and his Pokémon down. He then grins and takes out two more Pokéballs, saying:
"Want to turn this into a war? Sure!"
Tom sends out Golem and Golem! ((seriously. ))
Dream looks at Tom and comments, snidely:
"Got a bit lazy looking for Pokémon eh?"
Tom retorts:
"Heh, you're just lucky that Pokémon are really rare in this region nowadays..."
Dream grins and recalls Arcanine.
As he takes out his next Pokéball, the group notices it is purple. Tom then stares at Dream and asks:
"You color that purple?"
Dream snorts, replying:
"You look like you've never seen a Master Ball before..."
Tom flinches as Dream prepares to call out his next Pokémon.
Dream sends out Conflarmagon!
The Pokémon comes out of its Master Ball. It stands an imposing ten feet tall and has an armored torso. It is extremely bulky, with four wings on its back and the physique of a dragon. Tom starts sweating profusely as he starts repeating to himself, nearly inaudibly.
"Can't be..."
As the group looks back, it notices Spencer arriving at the scene with Fate and Dove. Spencer calls out, asking:
"Am I late?"
Tom starts talking more audibly now, saying:
"This is all so wrong. This can't be happening! I will NOT fall here!"
Dream then makes a keen observation:
"While you and, admittedly, me were having this little staring contest, we both skipped the chance to act for now."
Tom glares at Dream venomously as the round starts...
Christian:
Frigantmia suffers from its burn!
Frigantmia loses 16 HP!
Tyrogue uses Helping Hand on Scyther!
Tyrogue is ready to lend a hand!
Scyther uses Pursuit!
Frigantmia is hit for 7 points of damage!
Slakoth uses Yawn!
Frigantmia is unaffected!
Tom looks at Christian amused and comments:
"My Pokémon is already burned..." ((Status effects that don't stack: Burn, Freeze, Sleep, Paralysis))
Stacey:
Slugma uses Ember!
Frigantmia is hit for 18 points of damage!
It's super effective!
Frigantmia's Condition:
HP: 24/125
Condition: Burned
((Don't forget the twin Golems.  ))
Draloed:
Ironsides uses Harden!
Ironsides' Defense increases by one level!

((Today…))
“Not that I can think of; thank you for your help,” Mina told him as she recalled her dog. She chatted with him for a bit about things of less immediate consequence, then went to swap her rentals out for the night. Afterwards she made her way to the inn for the night, to strategize for a few hours and eventually sleep.
((Tomorrow—now Today, unless you need me to do something in the previous day...))
Mina turned to Christian as the Golems were sent out, eyebrows arched. “That’s why we usually ‘play by the rules’. No sense in giving our opponents ideas; most of them haven’t been very bright so far, and haven’t caught on that they were outnumbered until it was too late...” She pulled out her Pokedex then and scanned the newcomers to the battle. ((Type combos and Level for Frigantmia, Conflarmagon, and the Golem twins please.))

“That’s why we usually ‘play by the rules’. No sense in giving our opponents ideas; most of them haven’t been very bright so far, and haven’t caught on that they were outnumbered until it was too late...”
Christian turned to the girl called Mina in his mind he was considering punching her, but he figured that would only do matters worse. Instead he said "Well excuse me, but now that he really broke the rules, please stopp playing by the rules and attack with all you got." Christian then turned to the battle again, he lifted his cell phone to his ear and said "I'll call you back later!" before he turned it off and putted it away. "Hmm...I think I will be able to handel one of the golems by myself, but that's probally crazy talk so..."
"Tyrogue, Bullet Punch that Golem(1)!"
"Scyther, Pursuit that Golem(1)!"
"Slakoth, use yawn on that Golem(1)!" Christian issued the orders while pointing at one of the golems
((Mark the Golems like I did "Golem(1)" or "Golem(2)"))

“What do you think I’m trying to do?” Mina waved her Pokedex around for emphasis, then went back to studying it with a mutter. “Seeing as you already tipped him off…”
She considered the four—well, three really—choices before her. Frigantmia was fastest, and she figured the little shapeshifter would draw a lot of trouble to itself and so would need to deal damage quickly. The typing was a lousy matchup, however, as she knew Rock types were strong against Ice and Bug and was reasonably certain Ice wasn’t effective against itself or Bug types.
The Golems might be good from a type perspective, but the stats were the worst of the lot.
Dream’s Pokemon was mediocre type-wise—the Fire typing probably counteracted the weakness to Ice, but added a weakness to Water and, more relevantly, Ground and Rock. However with the exception of speed, its stats were the best across the board—no surprises there, as it belonged to a member of the local Elite Four. She swapped through the three entries quickly, considering.
“Hold on…” she said aloud, eyes lighting eerily with eldritch emotion as she spotted something she hadn’t noticed before. “Rock doesn’t get any resistance to Ice-type moves?”
Mina turned to her Pokemon. “Ditto, Transform into Frigantmia; Poliwag, pick a Golem ((either one)) and Water Gun it.” No sense sabotaging Dream with a Rain Dance. “Onix, I’m sorry, but I need you to protect Ditto for now.”
She reflected she still wouldn’t get many hits in with that double weakness, but at least she could distract Tom. That only left one other thing to worry about.
Where are you Houndour???
* * *
The rush of rental Pokemon all trying to leave at once had collapsed the tent. Buried in there somewhere was a Kakuna, rolled into a corner by the mess of escaping rentals and forgotten in the rush. But no one had any thoughts to spare for the poor Bug-type at the moment.
The rentals were scattering in all directions; two Jigglypuff were float-waddling off in a roughly easterly direction, and a knot of young hot-heads had spotted the Grunts attacking in the south and rushed off to make a bigger mess of things. Others were milling around aimlessly, or trying to find their Breeders in the chaos. Mina’s Pokemon, however, had a more important mission in mind, and couldn’t let themselves be distracted.
Pidgey had taken off and was spiraling around the patch of flattened red fabric in a search, when he spotted the arena in the north. ((Thank you winter. )) He cooed directions to the others and was off, leaving them some distance behind rather quickly.
He crested the wall of the arena and stopped short. Two massive Golems and a giant Bug Pokemon were menacing his trainer. With as angry a screech as the little Flying type could manage, he unleashed his most devastating possible Gust on the giant blue Bug.
((Consider that my Rock Tomb from the previous round.  ))

((@B-E-T-A: Forgetting something? *cough*Truant*cough* ))
Christian:
Slakoth is loafing around!
Tyrogue uses Bullet Punch!
Golem(1) is hit for 5 points of damage!
It's super effective!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mina:
Pidgey uses Gust!
Frigantmia is hit for 11 points of damage!
Ditto uses Transform!
Ditto transforms into Frigantmia!
Frigantmia suffers from its burn!
Frigantmia faints!
Tom is one step away from blowing an artery as his ice bug is shut down by its status effect.
However, the sound of helicopters grows ever closer, when suddenly, the group looks forward and notices that the first helicopter has arrived.
A pair of Bandra Grunts jumps out, to which Dream orders:
"Fate, Dove, Spencer, beat them down!"
The three young trainers nod and rush towards the pair of Grunts. It's hard to make out what is happening, but it appears that the trio is winning that particular battle.
Dream then takes a moment to look at Tom and say:
"Heh...is this all you've got?"
Tom then looks at his twin Golems and orders:
Golem(1) uses Bounce!
Dream stares in disbelief as the first Golem jumps an appreciable distance into the air.
Golem(2) attempts to use Earthquake!
Dream then smirks, saying:
"Gotcha!"
Conflarmagon uses Fissure! ((roll = 31!))
Golem falls into the fissure!
It's a OHKO!
Golem faints!
Tom then glares at Dream, saying simply:
"Cheater..."
Dream just snorts and retorts:
"Not my fault that your Golem managed to be even slower than my own Pokémon. I did have a 55% chance of failing that you know..."
The attacks by all other Pokémon ((namely Mud-Slap and Water Gun)) can't reach their intended target (bouncing Golem ) so they miss by default.
Another helicopter arrives at the scene as the weather seems to worsen. The area is becoming darker by the moment, and you seem to notice purple lightning crashing near the town center. Maybe it's just your imagination...
This helicopter brings a trio of Bandra Grunts, that attempt to balance the fight against Dove, Fate and Spencer.

“Pidgey!” Mina cried joyously, beaming. Her little bird dove down to her level with a coo, looking pleased with himself. Then anxiously, she asked, “Where are the others? Are they all right?”
The answer to this was excited and long winded, with the net result being that Mina couldn’t understand a word of it beyond a blurry positive.
“Okay…are they coming?”
Pidgey nodded, which was good because any further speech was suddenly drowned out by the whip-whip-whip of helicopter blades. Dove, Fate and Spencer rushed to engage the newcomers as the results of the round unfolded.
“Drat,” Mina remarked as Golem Number One Bounced out of reach. “We’ll have to wait for it to come back down before we can—”
Violet lightning split the sky. Something about it struck Mina as important…then a dozen tiny little details she hadn’t thought much about clicked into place at once.
Oh. Oh no.
They’re after the rift!
“Poliwag, Onix,” Mina said, voice as low as she could manage and still be heard over the chopping helicopter blades—there were more of them, now. “I know I need to get you two back to your Breeder, but we’re running out of time. Spencer will take care of you for now, and make sure you get where you need to go. You were both wonderful and I couldn’t have gotten here without you, but I think this is goodbye.” Mina found herself choking up, vision blurring with unexpected tears. “I’ll miss you both. Return!” She called them back and took aim. “Spencer! Catch!”
That unhappy errand taken care of, Mina straightened, wiping her eyes clear.
“Ditto, Ice Beam on Golem when it comes into range! Pidgey—ah—Gust!” Quick Attack would be useless, since the Rock Type wouldn’t be in range in time.
Then Mina bent over her Pokedex again, typing furiously.
~Misty, we need to wrap this up quick!~
She hit Send, and a yelp sounded out from behind her.
“Houndour!” The little Dark dog wagged his tail happily in answer. “You had me worried! Get over here!” He bounded over with another happy yelp, then took an aggressive stance in front of Mina, tail still going madly. “All right, get ready! When Golem comes back down, hit it with Bite!”

Mina:
As you toss the Pokéballs into the air, it seems that they will not reach Spencer. However, you notice the trio starting to move back. Spencer grabs the pair of Pokéballs, clips them to his belt and starts running back. You then see Dove and Fate running towards the rest of the group again. A look of concern can be clearly seen on their face. A look in the direction they were just in reveals why:
A total of ten helicopters have just arrived and open up to reveal a large group of nameless Bandra Grunts, Klandon and a mysterious trainer. The trainer looks slightly older than Dove and Fate, and stands about 5'4''. Dream flinches as he notices the trainer. As he moves closer, the group can see that it is actually a she.
Dream says simply:
"Meet Selene Icharias...or as most like to call her...Big Boss Bandra."
Tom snickers as the Bouncing Golem comes down for its attack. It is aimed at the Conflarmargon, which barely feels the hit, and retaliates with a fierce Dragon Claw across the face. The attacks by the other Pokémon cause it to faint in quick order. Dream subdues Tom and holds a knife to his throat. Selene looks at him amused and says:
"Put down that knife, Dream, and maybe I'll let your friends go."
Dream smirks and retorts:
"Sorry hun, it ain't gonna happen. I know you'll just kill us all anyways."
Selene grins sadistically and replies:
"You know me too well. I'm this region's Champion. What makes you think you can beat me?"
To which Dream replies:
"I know I can't beat you. Not going to stop me from trying..."
Selene laughs and declares:
"You've got guts, I'll give you that. Too bad that guts account for nothing!"
Selene takes out a Master Ball and throws it to the ground.
Selene sends out Herbacegon!
The Pokéball opens to reveal a leafy behemoth of around ten feet tall. Wingless, it is covered from head to toes in foliage.
Dream mutters:
"Not that pain in the..."
Selene's eyes sparkle as she asks:
"Ready to die?"
Dream looks at the group and says, nonchalantly:
"I think it's time you leave...all of YOU!"
The look on his face is one of repressed desperation. However, he stares Selene down and replies:
"Always ready."
As Dream lets Tom go, he ((Tom)) starts running towards the nearest helicopter. Dove, Fate and Spencer look at Dream and the rest of the group intently.
The rift grows bigger and bigger as the seconds pass. A quick scan of the rift by Dream states that it'll stay open for around 5 more minutes.
He then looks at the group and says:
"You have three choices. 1. You can stay here and possibly go down fighting. 2. You can retreat to somewhere else in this region. 3. You can run into the rift. Me? I'm staying right here..."
((What now? ))
