Comet--aka Vernon--was rushing, because even if he were a teenage idol, it apparently didn't mean that he had no homework at all. He ran into the tower in a bit of a panic and also in a sour mood, because he sure would've liked to take some time to kick back and relax, but real life got in the way! (He knew it to be a temporary annoyance, but it was still an annoyance, nonetheless). The next floor he was in didn't have foreign Pidgeys, but this time it was a rave party. Shit! If only he could've stuck around for a while in this one, but he really had to go. He swore that he could already hear a knocking on the door outside of the WorldScreen, because he really was just taking an illegal break.
Scrolling through his Pokemon, he thought to bring Yuzu out since she was a Normal--well, with Estival Eye--a Fire/Fighting type. But when he checked through her moveset, it turned out that she didn't know any fighting type moves, so she couldn't fulfill the prompt. Cursing again (as teenagers did), he quickly skimmed through the rest of his party to find that Kimchi was one again there to save the day. Pumping his fist up in the air, he threw the PokeBall, letting out a ready-to-fight Cinderace with a fiery cloak of spiritual flame.
<Oh, is this the tower again? Are we looking for another teammate?>
❝Uh, no, actually I'm in a bit of a rush can you use Double Kick on those Pidgey pretty please?❞
Kimchi glanced at the headbanging Pidgeys. <Feels like a shame to kick them while they're partying.>
❝I know I know but if I don't do an event today then I'm gonna miss out on some real good bonuses! And I'm not supposed to be here!❞
<You're not? But-->
❝I'll explain when I get a chance to come back!❞ he swore he could really hear the knocking now, and his Pokemon couldn't figure out why he was frantically looking around at a disco rave. ❝Kick 'em where it hurts!❞
Kimchi let out a sigh and decided that it was something beyond his understanding, so letting the beat take him, he bounced around to the rhythm before landing a solid footprint on one of the bird's faces. Before the bird beside it could have a chance to react and fly away, a second foot met its mark, sending it flying off the branch. <Heh, I can do this all day. But I guess you don't have all day?>
Sure enough, when turned around to check on his trainer, the last thing he saw was a thumbs up and a big grin before getting pulled back into the PokeBall. Oh, darkness, his old friend. His trainer certainly owed an explanation.

It dawned upon Comet that while checking through his quest list, he actually never bothered to begin the catching tutorial, even if he had...a lot of Pokemon already. Haha. Well, there were a number of reasons why it was still beneficial to do this: one, he could meet someone new, and that was always cool, and two, he did need some fodder Pokemon to trade for the Charcadets that he was eyeing in the Creed base, ever since he slammed that JOIN GUILD button as soon as he got the opportunity. One Charcadet was no good! It had to be two, for extra coolness!
He was in no rush to get this quest started though, and so waited for someone to open the quest for him so that he could join in. Sure enough, on one fine day when he was strolling with Yuzu (the evil Stufful) and Bulgogi (the Houndour), the quest flashed, and he pressed a button to mark it on the map. ❝We're gonna go catch a Pokemon!❞
Bulgogi glanced at his other companion before turning his attention back to his trainer. <The team is already rather big, isn't it?>
Well, the reason why Kimchi wasn't out right now was because he didn't exactly want to tell him about the whole fodder trading thing. He laughed awkwardly, still moving towards where the other player was. ❝It's just something that we gotta do officially for us to get stronger. I need to get it recognized by, uh, someone.❞
<Uh...huh.> the Houndour was doubtful, but decided that it did not necessarily warrant much suspicion, and so let it slide. It was also hard to be so pointed at it with Yuzu cheering about beating up more Pokemon, especially when she stood up on her hind legs for a moment and started to make punching noises like in comic books.
Anyway, they eventually make it to a certain spot where a pretty lady and a floating set of blocks were at. He was at first surprised at her player tag: Nurse Joy, but then he realized that the NPC tags looked different, so this was a player cosplaying as her, or something. Is cosplaying the correct term in a VR world? ❝Oh hey, it's C0D13! You look a lot more chill than I expected.❞ he did recall that the Porygon was meant to be a helper before it went rogue...or something. What was it doing here though? He thought that it had been replaced by another Pokemon (which he recalled seeing on the UI sometimes?)
❝We doing the catching tutorial, yeah?❞ he would glance over at the other player with a grin on his face, ❝Not gonna lie I'm just here to chuck a ball and bounce. We playing soft or hard today?❞

Huh, Cat Tower again?
He did recall that the Worm Tower was also launched again, and that one was still ongoing, albeit a little slowly, but he wasn't really sure why he'd need more cats if he already had Litten, the only cat he really needed. Or did Fennekin count as a cat? No? Man. He was really starting to like the idea of collecting all of the fire type Pokemon, but unfortunately there was no lizard tower, no pig tower, and no crocodile tower either (did crocs count as lizards? Now he really wanted a lizard tower! Act like Steve Irwin or something, who he only knew through memes rather than actually seeing his show).
Anyway, Patrat. Gotta kick their asses. No problem! This time instead of sending out Kimchi to do the dirty work, he decided to bring out Tsukune, the newest member of their team. She let out a loud chirp, looking like she was raring to go. What does the prompt say again? Oh okay.
❝Right, let's Flame Charge those rats! Uh, do it twice!❞
<You mean hit two of them?>
❝Yeah I think so!❞
She looked kind of confused as to why her trainer was unsure, but decided to follow anyway, cloaking herself in fire before running quickly towards one of the frozen Patrats. After taking one down, she immediately turned to another direction and slammed onto another one.

#s://c~l3n~co/i/mPIdZz~jpeg <Comet? You...>
❝What? Oh, the outfit? It's looking pretty slick, huh?❞
<No, your hair, and your face...>
The player furrowed his brows before he turned to one of the walls, clean and pristine, so it reflected his image. He stopped in his tracks, staring at trimmed, golden hair and bright, golden eyes. It wasn't blue, it wasn't messily tossed at one side, and there were no horns growing from the side of his head. It was...him. Not Comet, but Vernon. He let out a cry in shock (though he had to admit that blue and white outfit slapped, because it actually felt nice and comfy even if it looked like an idol outfit). ❝Oh shit!❞
<Err, it's not bad,> Kimchi quickly followed up, the Cinderace still looking the same as he always did, <I was just...you know. It's not you.>
Oh, the Pokemon didn't realize how ironic that sounded. He decided that it was better not to say anything, and he prayed that no one here recognized who he was. ❝Yeah, haha, I think it's just for the Dream Kingdom. Should go back to normal once we get back.❞
This was really fucking bizarre. He had gotten quite used to moving around as Comet in this world, but now he was looking at his hands that he was so used to seeing, and how his body moved was...it felt both right and wrong. It was hard to describe. Why did it shift him into this, anyway? Was the Dream Kingdom telling him something? In any case, he decided to shrug off that initial shock and play it cool, admiring instead the place that they had gotten themselves into after accepting the invitation from the Indeedee. Crazy stuff! He definitely scooped up some of that blue goop into his hands, earning the shock of Kimchi (again), and then he exclaimed how it tasted really really good. (Steak! Who would've thought?) And then there were two thrones at the end of the banquet hall, with a queen (even if she looked like his age) standing on the platform. She was talking something about imagination, and that could be anything: the instruments, the stage, the painting, the anything that could splash something into the space.
Well, he had no idea how dancing and music did that compared to paint, but he was a musician, obviously. He beelined to the closest thing that resembled a keyboard, which had holographic golden rectangles that floated over a tree-like stand.
<Do you know how to play?>
❝I never really told you what I did in the other world, did I?❞
He pressed some keys to test whether they would play the notes he expected. They did, and since there was music playing, he decided he would dance to their tune, for now. ❝I've played piano even before I knew what Pokemon were.❞

Round 4
After returning Kimchi back to his Poke Ball, he ran back (and almost slipped on the ice) to Yuzu to pull her out of the mini snow pile. He felt like she could wiggle out on her own if she wanted to, but she seemed pleased to be grabbed by her plush arms and yanked out of there. ❝It's all up to you now. Land the finishing blow for us!❞
The Stufful (Evil) was all too happy to oblige. Building momentum, Comet swung his Pokemon to the wavering Glaceon. Once again, she cloaked herself in fire, and with a shine to her eyes she slammed onto her gargantuan opponent, which was enough to make the ice type lose her footing and fall onto the ice floe. The weight of her body thankfully did not completely break the ground into two, and Comet was able to catch a rebounding Yuzu who looked completely peachy keen.
Yuzu the Stufful (Evil) uses Tackle! w7AVFKXJ1d50+40 Rarity (10) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Never Normal (5) + Supereffective (20)
The blizzard settled, and the sky was clear. It dawned onto Comet that he had managed to do the battle without even bringing out his other three Pokemon. ❝Holy shit, Yuzu, we did it!!❞
<Because Yuzu is the best!> she cheered in his arms, and Comet swore that was the longest sentence he had heard her said so far.
Well, he frankly thought that Kimchi was doing much of the heavy-lifting, but he wouldn't have been able to do it if it weren't for the other two - the other classes really did help keep things balanced for a team. So caught in the spirit of celebration, he raised her up, ❝Yuzu is amazing!❞
<Yuzu is amazing!>
They laughed, confidence surging, but Comet knew all too well he wasn't going to try this again until he got that damn Disrupt skill unlocked, because the Blizzard was a pain in the ass.

Round 3
It was clear that the Glaceon was getting weakened from the onslaught of fire type attacks, but the same could be said for his own Pokemon. Ganjang definitely looked a lot more worn out after that last heal, and doing another was going to get him knocked out. Kimchi had some scratches on him from the Swift and Ice Shard, but he was doing better because of the Cyndaquil's constant healing. Yuzu, on the other hand, just looked like she was enjoying getting pushed back before running in for another full-body tackle. It was probably because Comet equipped her in the Tank class that she was shrugging off damage.
Kimchi decided to change position again, using Quick Attack to jump to another, smaller but closer ice floe (basically emulating what the Glaceon did) before shooting out a rapid fire burst of Embers right on its body.
Kimchi the Cinderace uses Ember! gfo9QS8i3d20+150 Rarity and Refresh (15) + Prompt (5) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Fire Type Move (5) + Supereffective (20) Multiply by 3 for three fast attacks
With all of the fire attacks, the main ice floe that they were standing on was beginning to show cracks. Yuzu had the grand idea of punching the ice to break off a piece and carrying it with ease. Letting out a happy cry, she covered herself in a white aura, reminiscent of shounen animes, as she hurled the broken ice block at the Glaceon. Comet could swear that the white glow almost looked like fire, which made the ice block melt a bit before it actually slammed onto the opponent.
Yuzu the Stufful (Evil) uses Strength! 1d50+45 Rarity (10) + Prompt (5) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Never Normal (5) + Supereffective (20)
But the Glaceon shrugged off the attack, suddenly also covered in a powerful aura. It was charging up for an attack, and the UI frantically told Comet that he could Disrupt it if he had the ability. Well, tough shit for him, he hadn't unlocked any abilities at all! Cursing, he called out to his Pokemon to brace themselves, and he tried to run towards his Cyndaquil, for he had been weakened the most by the battle.
Glaceon attacks Cinderace, Stufful (Evil), and Cyndaquil with Blizzard! 3d50
The Pokemon cried out loudly before unleashing a powerful Blizzard that almost knocked Comet off his feet and sending him into the frozen waters. He was able to hold his ground by dropping close to the ice, but he had to push himself up to catch his Cyndaquil, who didn't have the weight to keep himself down. Immediately the player could feel his body becoming stiff and pained from the chilly temperature, and when he glanced down at his Pokemon, he was in no shape to fight.
<Ah...it's so...cold...>
❝Hang in there, Ganjang! Warm up in the Poke Ball, you did great, I swear.❞
The Cyndaquil managed to show a weak smile before Comet let the stream of light from the spherical device envelop him, transforming him back into data. Shaking his head to get some blood flowing, the visibility of the battlefield lowered from the attack, and he had to call out to see where Kimchi and Yuzu are. Eventually, he was able to get his legs to move, and he ran closer to where the Glaceon stood. The ice floe suddenly had small hills of snow, and out of one of them, the Stufful (Evil) popped out with that same goofy grin. Man, Yuzu was something else.
And then he saw his Cinderace, who was far away from him on another ice floe. He couldn't make that jump. ❝Kimchi!❞
<Ngh...how are the other two?>
❝Ganjang got knocked out. But--❞ he glanced at the Glaceon, who looked even more powerful and majestic up close, if it weren't for the fact that it was hanging by a thread, as noted in the UI. ❝Yuzu can handle it. I'll return you first.❞
Comet wouldn't have heard this, but the Cinderace clicked his tongue. He knew that he was doing most of the damage, but his pride had wanted him to be standing until the end. The lack of HP continued to drag him down, and frankly he would've been knocked out in the last round if it weren't for the Cyndaquil healing him. <I still have a long way to go.> he muttered.

Round 2
<It...it actually worked? It actually worked!!>
Comet had given a thumbs up and a cheer, while Kimchi and Yuzu continued to stay within close range of the giant Glaceon, careful not to get caught by under its paws or near its mouth, which is where the majority of its attacks came from. Letting out a low growl, the ice Pokemon suddenly disappeared from view with a repositioning Quick Attack, appearing on the other side of the ice floe, near the edge, before sending out a flurry of stars at everyone (Swift).
Glaceon attacks Cinderace, Stufful (Evil), and Cyndaquil with Swift! pt60cF||2d30
The player never really figured out how stars were supposed to hurt when he was watching the anime, but as it turned out, the stars were basically physically manifested pointy things that did pack a punch, like being hit by a boomerang or something (not that he would know how that would feel like, but it just looked like it would bruise). Thankfully, the game was mindful about players not getting caught in the attack range even if he wasn't very far from where his Pokemon was. He figured that it was definitely going to be a different story if he got into the fray himself (and he knew that was an option after watching people jump on Zapdos with weapons and stuff, which was very cool, that was also something he wanted to do. He didn't want to just sit on the sidelines like a loser!)
Anyway, that would be a future thing. For now, it was checking on his Pokemon to see how they were doing after the second wave of long-range attacks, and so far the strategy was more or less the same: close the gap and hit it where it hurts. According to the UI and Glaceon's HP, so long as Kimchi continued to do his fast attacks, the fight shouldn't take more than 5 rounds. That was, so long as he was able to keep himself alive, which was why Ganjang was so important, but he didn't realize that each heal would drain his HP as well (was there no MP system? C'mon, UNOVR!) The Cyndaquil was definitely not going to make it to Round 5, but he hoped that the heals would be enough to delay Kimchi going down.
Note to self: increase everyone's HP after finishing up unlocking the Kindler class.
❝Ganjang, can you do another heal?❞
<Y-yes! But...I don't know if I can do another one after this!>
❝That's fine! You've been awesome so far, you def deserve some curry after this!❞
The Cyndaquil didn't actually have a food preference, but being rewarded did sound nice (the little one had no battle experience, or at least couldn't remember it, much like how he couldn't remember his original trainer before that silver-haired person picked him up). Flaring up his back to combat the cold and prepare for an attack, he sent out a burst of floating flames to Kimchi, who had moved in to close the distance and slam onto the Glaceon with another Flame Charge. Because of the opponent's size and the lack of places to properly move in this ice floe, it was hard for it to dodge, taking the brunt of the attack. To continue the assault, the Cinderace jumped onto a smaller ice floe and shot another Pyro Ball onto its side.
Ganjang the Cyndaquil uses Ember (Heal)! 2d12+20 Rarity (10) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Fire Type Move (5)
Kimchi the Cinderace uses Pyro Ball and Flame Charge! 3d20+150 Rarity and Refresh (15) + Prompt (5) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Fire Type Move (5) + Supereffective (20) Multiply by 3 for three fast attacks
The Glaceon let out a pained cry, about to face the Cinderace with gritted teeth, but he was not alone - Yuzu was using the slippery ice to build momentum without her moving as much for an all-out Tackle. Because of the Estival Eye, her Tackles were actually cloaked in flame, and all the while the Stufful (Evil) was laughing and laughing, even if she had been whacked by one of the Swift stars a few moments before.
Yuzu the Stufful (Evil) uses Tackle! 1d50+45 Rarity (10) + Prompt (5) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Never Normal (5) + Supereffective (20)
❝You're doing great, guys! We can do this!❞ oh man, seeing his Pokemon give it his all made him really proud and happy that they were willing to follow him, and at the same time terrible that he couldn't do more other than call out commands. How can the people in the anime just sit by for these battles? Well, he knew that they were dangerous and he was probably more reckless because his life wasn't actually in danger, but he still wanted to help in some other way! Like how those other players were fighting alongside their Pokemon rather than just staying behind them!

Ever since Comet stepped into UNOVR, he wanted to train up his Pokemon so that he could be strong. Such a task proved much easier said than done, for the systems here were quite different from the traditional games, requiring him to put plenty of work in not only training them, but getting the currency in order to unlock tiers to make them stronger. He could delude himself to think that the training he asked them to do was helpful, either - it wasn't much, and it was more of repetitive. It wasn't like they had much chances to practice actually battling something on slightly equal footing. Zapdos obviously did not count as suitable practice.
Thus, when he heard about the Arena battles tucked away in one of the possible fast travel options, he decided to check it out, for it was likely the thing he needed to make himself and his Pokemon feel more confident about the trials ahead. As it so happened, the easiest option was a type that he could basically pummel with all of his Pokemon, but that didn't mean that this was going to be a walk in the park. The description was already suggesting he find someone else to partner up with, but...no. He had a full team of fire Pokemon. Sure, their HPs were barely above the minimum, but enough firepower could trump the need for tanking it out, right? Yeah! (He basically had this confidence that things could likely fall in his favor, even if he could be better prepared for this).
So he locked in his six Pokemon and waited for him to be transported to the isolated battle space.
Round 1
❝Kimchi, Yuzu, Ganjang!❞ he threw their Poke Balls up in the air, releasing them onto the large ice floe, lazily moving across the half-frozen river. It was going to be terrible if any of his Pokemon fell into the water, and they had to avoid that as much as possible. He had a cloak that he had purchased from the cosmetics shop for the desert, but it would have to do to keep him warm in the chilly landscape. In front of them was a very, very large Glaceon, easily towering over all of them. It glared at them coldly, regal and imposing. Comet wondered if this was how Intimidate worked in the game, even if he knew that the Pokemon had no such ability.
He let out a nervous laugh, ❝Here it comes!❞
<Here comes what?!> the Cydanquil shouted in worry, before the Cinderace used the ice to quickly skid over to both Ganjang and Yuzu, picking them up as Glaceon showered them with a flurry of Ice Shards. The Cyndaquil screamed in terror while the Stufful seemed to be enjoying herself, raising her plush arms up with a big grin on her face. <Weeee!>
Glaceon attacks Cinderace, Stufful (Evil), and Cyndaquil with Ice Shard! 4|3TDuFH2d30
❝Kimchi!❞
<I'm fine! Now it's our turn!> he placed his two companions down as he stared down the Glaceon. The colossal Pokemon seemed to have noticed that the Cinderace was its biggest threat, so it began to shoot more Ice Shards at him. He used the ice to skid and dodge, jumping onto an adjacent, smaller ice floe before using the momentum to leap into the air and summon a ball of fire at his feet. The next moment, he kicked it hard, slamming right onto their opponent's back. After that, he cloaked himself in flame and propelled himself using Flame Charge, making the Glaceon stumble on their paws.
Kimchi the Cinderace uses Pyro Ball and Flame Charge! 3d20+150 Rarity and Refresh (15) + Prompt (5) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Fire Type Move (5) + Supereffective (20) Multiply by 3 for three fast attacks
❝Ganjang, heal Kimchi!❞
<Huh?! How do I--?!>
❝You can do it, Ganjang! I'm sure you can use your Ember as a healing fire or something!❞
Feeling like he was definitely out of his league, the Cyndaquil tightly closed its eyes (more than a usual Cyndaquil, anyway) and let flames erupt from his back. He then used Ember as instructed, letting it float and meld with the Fiery Spirit that was trailing Kimchi.
Ganjang the Cyndaquil uses Ember (Heal)! 2d12+20 Rarity (10) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Fire Type Move (5)
❝Yuzu--❞
But Comet didn't even have to command the little Stufful, who was already charging straight at the Glaceon with a fire type Tackle attack. Out of the three of them, the plush Pokemon looked like she was enjoying herself the most, laughing maniacally as she found her target and head butted into the colossal Pokemon with all of her might.
Yuzu the Stufful (Evil) uses Tackle! 1d50+40 Rarity (10) + Fire Pokemon (5) + Never Normal (5) + Supereffective (20)
{BREAKDOWN}Kimchi (Cinderace) 133/150 HP Took 20 damage from the Glaceon Took 30 damage from fast attack strain Healed 33 damage from Ganjang

Comet was taking his new fire types out on a walk when his cat decided that something caught his eye in the middle of the desert. Any other trainer would probably tell him that this was a terrible idea, because this place happened to be labeled Corruption Zone in his UI. The same name that he tried wandering into that one time before the Thunderfall Raid, and maybe it was a fluke on his end, but nothing terrible happened to them save for his Pumpkaboo being too scared to get out of her Poke Ball for some time (understandable, he felt kind of bad, and he didn't just want to chuck her away after the revelations of Thunderfall and she did technically held her ground there). He had yet been able to convince her otherwise, so she was sitting this one out, like all of his previous adventures so far, and bringing out his new acquisitions instead to get better acquainted.
And then yeah, Bibimbap ran off, to the direction of the abandoned amusement park grounds, of all places (at least that's what the map said, and who knew what was waiting for him there). Picking up the pace, he made sure to check if Bulgogi the Houndour and Yuzu the (Evil) Stufful were following him. Kimchi was resting in his Poke Ball for now, though he was at arm's reach the moment something came up - he was still his strongest Pokemon in his arsenal.
<This place really gives me the creeps.> Bulgogi said with a bit of a gruff. <I don't smell anyone else, and this sand ain't helping either. Wait-->
They could see Bibimbap had run up to another trainer, which was the scent that the Houndour picked up. In his hands was a fiery-colored egg, and the Litten seemed to be staring at it. Was he...salivating? ❝Bibimbap, that's not food!❞ Comet called to his Pokemon, who soon caught up and finally got a better look at who owned the egg. To his surprise, it was someone he had mainly seen in the subreddit and other UNOVR-related media. It was none other than...
❝Woah, it's the Cayge himself! I think! You are him, right? Doubt that anyone's going to actually try to steal your look. What'chu doing out here?❞ of course, the man could easily ask him the same question, and he wouldn't really have much of an answer other than just exploring. The teen picked up the Litten so that he wouldn't try to jump at the other player, but it was clear that he was still looking at the egg. His tail was flicking around.
❝Oh oh, if you're heading in there, mind if I come along? I'd love to hear about your stories in the game!❞

❝I do!❞ it was Comet who actually put up the trade for the Keggling, since he had no Poison type Pokemon and he had no idea what it was nor what he could do with it. It looked...kind of weird. Buggy, like a minion monster from sci-fi movies or something. So yeah, he put up an ad, and surprisingly quickly got a response from someone, and it just so happened to be someone he knew! (He only got to meet her for a moment, and he wasn't sure if she was in the Thunderfall Raid [things were pretty crazy over there]). Nonetheless, he didn't mind if he had been forgotten. Maybe this could be a step in a direction where he could be made more memorable! Or maybe he needed to be stronger for that.
❝How do you even use this thing anyway? And what're you thinking to trade for it?❞ he wasn't exactly picky, so long as it was something he could use and benefit his team. Or maybe something that would look cool on him. Hopefully that didn't restrict things too much! ❝And, and I'm just being curious but are you like, one of the OG players? You give off that vibe, IDK. It's just real cool, you know? The game's been crazy lately and I was just wondering what you thought about, uh, all of it.❞ he gestured with his hands. ❝'Specially with the Zapdos thing.❞

It was like a horror movie VR, except he was actually able to run as much as he wanted without having to worry about bumping into something, unless there were walls in this place, and it was hard to tell since everything was so dark save for the light that the Pumpkaboo continued to shine from her belly. The shadows danced around them, which made no sense since, again, there didn't seem to be walls, but he had probably took a couple of paces, a number of meters, before he heard another voice cut through the fog.
There was someone else here! Not a voice he recognized, but still, it was someone! When he turned around, he saw the creature was now facing the new contender, a pretty cool lady with a Ditto that was about to copy the crazy thing that was screaming at them. Was it possible that they could attack the thing, whatever it was? (Was it a part of the corruption? A part of the game to introduce a horror element? It reminded him much of Bendy and the Ink Machine, even if he never played the game, and the setting here was overall much darker in lighting.
❝Pumpkaboo!❞
<No need to shout, I'm right here!>
Oh yeah, he was just used to how the anime would do this. He quickly pulled up his UI to show what moves his Pokemon could use, and since he literally just caught this Pokemon, there was only one long-ranged attack. ❝Shadow Sneak that thing!❞
The grass type let out a cry and underneath its tiny frame, inky dark phantoms extended underneath it; mostly formed by the light from its belly. The shadows then broke away from the "floor" and rushed towards the crazy monster thing, whose attention was still at the new trainer and their Ditto. The attack landed, but it looked like it had no effect at all, only making it turn again to where Comet was (it had started to melt and was losing its humanoid shape, becoming more like a blob without a neck).
❝Uhh, cool lady, any chance ya know what this thing is?❞
<Oh Mew, we're really going to get it!>

route objective: something massive blocks your path ❝Hey, hey Kimchi, have you heard about secret bases?❞
<Can't say I have. Is that what you're trying to do here?>
❝Sort of? I mean, look at this place!❞ he gestured largely to the many, many different places that one could hide themselves in: caved in rooms, broken windows, derelict vehicles, alleyways that barely saw the light of day - the Cinderace did not see the appeal and honestly found the place extremely unnerving. But as usual, his desire to protect his trainer from getting into deep water triumphed over his uneasiness, and so he was following him into one of the buildings that had plants overrun seemingly every crack in its structural system. Even the entrance had been nature-fied, with a broken, blasted off door, but vines obscuring what was inside.
So far, Comet was trying not to venture too far from the Thunderfall Shrine - not until they got a better idea of what the hell was going on in this place. He couldn't help but be excited by the post-apocalyptic landscape, though, especially since it wasn't overrun by zombies (which was cliche). If it wasn't them, then what caused this? And why had he yet to see a single Pokemon? One thing was for sure though, the plants were absolutely thriving without anything to keep its growth at bay, and the lobby that they had found themselves in was overrun by foliage as far as the eye could see.
Unfortunately, in order to progress anywhere further in what the player guessed to be a hotel or office building, they had to get through a very, very large slab of concrete. If it were anything organic, his fire types could burn through it easily (never mind the risk of bringing down the whole place with him). Since it wasn't, though, they couldn't just use sheer firepower to break it. Or can they? Maybe some Double Kicks would do it? But this didn't look like just one slab, it was more of like five or six piled up over each other. It might be easier if they had like a Machamp who could push the stones aside.
❝Great, is this a dead-end already?❞ and since Comet was not making an effort to keep it down, his voice traveled and echoed across the high-ceiling room, which had partially collapsed, though it was too dark to see what was above them. It wouldn't be difficult to hear him if one passed by, since almost all of the window panes had already shattered.
