A bird came at her, and she turned her head and Leered sharply at it. Unnerved, the Pidgey froze in place. Which caused it to fall from the air. The impact with the floor startled it enough to scurry away from the irate cat. ”… We’re going to need to figure something out for you…” Alicia bemoaned, face palming. The Shinx merely loafed and napped in response. ——————————————————————- Voltine the Shinx’s Leer Prompt #16 [Tower]LZgmj6qa1-501-50

Give a Pidgey a Psycho Cut.” ”Mind Blades, coming up! Nushi declared as he blitzed through the air. Shimmers of air were highlighted in purple before flying in blade like shapes. While they didn’t score hits, the fish wasn’t intending to hit. The strange passage of air was enough to startle the Pidgey and send it fleeing. ”Hehe!” ——————————————————————- Nushi the Veluza’s Psycho Cut Prompt #17 [Tower]XgqF4Syc1-501-50

It was an inanimate object in a virtual reality game. But it was laughing at her. Trainer and feline looked at each other. Alicia took a seat and just folded her arms around her legs. Waiting and staring at the Shinx expectantly. With a roll of her eyes, Voltine finally got up and made enough of a run to lunge at and Tackle a Pidgey. ”Thank you.” Alicia said quietly, giving Voltine some scratches on her ear. The Shinx suddenly perked up at the sensation and purred happily. ——————————————————————- Voltine the Shinx’s Tackle Prompt #18 [Tower]43\|n0pQ81-501-50

For this exact same prompt too. ”Shylla, Wrap please!” ”Am I going to crumble and start… enjoying this…?” Shylla asked under his breath. Not wanting to be thrown, he obediently ran up and leaped for a Pidgey, wrapping it up in his tentacles and making it drop. ”I hope it’s not going to be that bad.” Alicia replied once the shroom squid returned. ”I just want to make you realize you have reason to be brave.” ”…” Shylla was quiet after that. ——————————————————————- Shylla the Toedscool’s Wrap Prompt #19 [Tower]W4Ubxe1P1-501-50

Taunt ‘em!” Alicia ordered, knowing the sushi dragon loved to incite rage. Poking out from her standard perch, Nym had that evil smirk on her lips. ”You are what you eat! The whole lot of you are a bunch of pests and insects to squash!” Alicia winced at that, even as the birds flew into a frenzy at the inciting words. ”You don’t have a lower taunt setting, do you?” ”Nope!” Nym chimed innocently, blinking her eyes cutely. Alicia sighed deeply. ——————————————————————- Nym the Tatsugiri’s Taunt Prompt #20 [Tower]12oN4ytV1-501-50

Seeing no need to say anything, the Onix appeared with little fan fare and summoned up a flurry of boulders to whip at the pesky birds. Most were able to get out of range, but one unfortunate soul was caught in the avalanche and screeched as it suffered the full effects of the Super Effective hit. ”Nice going!” Alicia chimed, wondering if she’d passed Josh again by now. And where Kyukon was in the tower… ——————————————————————- Crios the Onix’s Rock Slide Prompt #21 [Tower]KF_\|Q4m51-501-50

Giyun, give us literally any Steel type attack you know! Quick quick!” Alicia called, thumbing through menus with blazing speed. Her experience in coding made her fingers absurdly fast, as she sometimes had to actively fight a nasty virus. Like when she fixed Josh’s laptop that one time. Once she got used to UNOVR’s menu placement it was rote muscle memory at that point. ”Cover your ears!” Giyun warned as he appeared. Alicia yelped and did so, clapping her hands over her ears. Then Giyun took a breath and unleashed a Metal Sound that Kyukon and Josh Devlin might hear in their own towers. ”That’s still grating.” Alicia complained. ”Was the fastest attack I had.” Giyun replied with a shrug. ——————————————————————- Giyun the Duraludon’s Metal Sound Prompt #22 [Tower]fcwA9oTc1-501-50

Tikani?” Alicia called hopefully. And then she heard the whine of charging sunlight. ”You read my mind!” ”Here goes! Clear the way!” The Bayleef called, unleashing the beam of pure energized light. It combined with the shockwave of its passing caused immense damage, taking out enough Pidgey in one go that the tower had to spawn extra. ”Whoo! Nice shot!” Alicia congratulated. ——————————————————————- Tikani the Bayleef’s Solar Beam Prompt #23 [Tower]I1zpNXF81-501-50

Conjuring up a ring of liquid, the sushi dragon fired a Water Pulse towards a Pidgey, blasting in and making its head ring with Confusion. The bird flew around drunkenly until it finally crashed and fainted. ”Not bad~.”* Alicia hummed out with a grin. ——————————————————————- Nym the Tatsugiri’s Water Pulse Prompt #24 [Tower]nyGwrF6Z1-501-50

Alicia sighed to herself as the Tower requested yet another Fairy move, and so she swapped back over to Pearl. ”Really? Phew, this is… getting to be a bit much…” Pearl huffed out. Her Fairy Wind was weaker than previous examples, but she mustered enough shimmering gusts to satisfy the prompt and chase off another Pidgey. ”Yeah, I may have underestimated how much this was going to take a toll on all of us.” Alicia admitted. But she wasn’t about to quit that easily. ——————————————————————- Pearl the G!Ponyta’s Fairy Wind Prompt #25 [Tower]w4MqPr6G1-501-50

Alicia didn’t remember seeing that one ever before either. But she had an answer for this as well. ”Giyun, Dragon Tail this time! Wind it up big!” ”I’ll line ‘em up and knock ‘em all down!” Giyun declared as he charged into the fray. With a big swing of his metallic tail, he swatted a Pidgey with all the might he could, sending it careening out of the Tower. ”FORE!” Alicia laughed at the golf joke, smirking at that. She wondered if anyone saw that bird’s trajectory. ——————————————————————- Giyun the Duraludon’s Dragon Tail Prompt #26 [Tower]LAQWjqle1-501-50

She had just the fully evolve mon for- … the… job… She was brutally reminded of Midas Corp again, as both Yggdril and Fumar’s icons were grayed out. The only ones who could clear this prompt… Dejectedly, Alicia opened the group chat message she’d start, and was about to type up that she was going to be out for a bit. Until one of her Pokeballs burst open on its own. Hurricane force winds suddenly ripped through the tower, sending shocked Pidgey screaming for their lives. Turning to see the sudden appearance, especially shocked as the tower ‘dinged’ a completed prompt, Alicia stared up at the lightly flapping Pidgeot that hovered there. ”… Sylvene?” ”How could I stand aside when suddenly overcome with such despair so near?” the Pidgeot asked, her sharp eyes focused on Alicia. ”I’ve been stuck as a Pidgeotto long enough, now I shall spread my true wings!” The hero aspirant couldn’t help herself, and cried soft tears. ——————————————————————- Sylvene the Pidgeot’s Hurricane Prompt #29 [Tower]st0AmH\|K1-501-50

Venex let out a trill and charged, finishing one of them off with a Fell Stinger to boost his power in case he was needed for another prompt. Alicia really didn’t get why Ultra Beasts cleared the Alola prompt, as by nature they weren’t native to Alola… but oh well.
