-Pokemon Realm, Ransei Region, Eastern Illusio Sky, Cerebrum City, Top Tier, two hours after Pom irreparably severed Gilgamesh’s control over Smolder, near the Team Harmony wagon on the backline, Shanty-
Hundreds of Psychic Types be fighting, the three most notable ones that are being the major difference were Sanosuke, Kenshin and Kaoru as the strongest fighters in the field, but they were still being only three people.
Attacks be flying every which way between many Psychic Types, a few Bug Types along with our Chrysalia friends and Dark Types from the prison that weren’t the Morpeko, all of them be fighting on the top of the large island sized floating city.
I just got back to the wagon and looking back out over the battlefield Dodo and I had just crossed.
Some be fighting for their homes, some be fighting against Gilgamesh, others like the Dark Types be wanting revenge against Gilgamesh and the many who couldn’t fight were being evacuated from Cerebrum as the city was said to be on a quick path to destruction.
A lot of people were going to be losing their home here and the main reason why is what Kenshin be fighting here, he is going to be breaking through to Gilgamesh who is up in the Castle of Illusion that is being quite far above the battlefield. Most Pokémon could not be naturally flying nearly that high.
The only way to be accessing him and his position would be going through Gilgamesh’s mixed forces that be actively blocking the method to get there. The Mr. Mimes on Gilgameshs’s side were proving to be quite annoying with the number of invisible barriers they be putting up everywhere.
Pom is being out of the fight after saving Smolder, though judging by the way a Reviver Seed went off… Pom be having enough strength of mind to be planting it before she be losing her sanity completely while fighting Smolder. That Pom could even be mauling Smolder to within an inch of her life was terrifying.
After I had hopped off of him, Dodo warbled worriedly next to me and nudged me.
“Pom will be… alive… she’s not being that badly injured from when we be last seeing her.” ‘Alright’ is not exactly the word I could be using with Pom. I simply patted his beak gently with a hoof. “She did be saving Smolder and Smolder will be fine at least.”
Dodo sent me a somewhat flat look, he is learning to be being much more expressive since he survived nearly dying. He be at least showing is emotions better.
“Yes, she was quite impressive in how she managed to pull Gilgamesh into the mental space through the link he was using to control your friend.” Espurr drew our attention to him, he be helping those who were injured on the frontlines and Dodo quickly be dropping the Ralts in front of him. Espurr is still being quite weak, too weak to actually be taking place on the battlefield. As such he be taking a support role for Kenshin’s forces, he is being a decent healer even if he didn’t be having a healing move. “I think it’s weird she sees all of you as her little puppies that need protecting.”
Ralts was small white bidpedal creature with green hair that made it look like a walking mushroom, no grass typing whatsoever involved. Kirlia be taller and slightly thinner more feminine creatures that become good at dancing as their legs be getting much thinner, they resembled little ballerinas.
Thinking of Kenshin’s forces. They had the supplies, but not exactly the numbers or even strength to be taking Gilgamesh’s forces head on all at once. Even if Kenshin did be getting back a large amount of his forces from the prison break.
At least Gilamesh’s forces also be having a problem with launching an assault from their side of things and were forced to be being entirely on the defensive.
Every one of Kenshin’s forces that be going down is being brought back and healed up. Everyone from Gilgamesh’s forces that be being brought down were captured, if it was being feasible to be doing so, and relayed to the teleporter inside Cerebrum that goes to the center of Illusio. Anyone who could no longer fight were also being sent through the portal before they be getting permanently crippled.
Some… didn’t be avoiding crippling injuries or dying. At least there not be too many dying, but it was still being quite bad. The once beautiful green park that covered the top of Cerebrum City was now partially a wasteland.
I didn’t be seeing those Mandibuzz vultures, so they weren’t willing to join the fight and were considered hostile mercenaries that were detained by Kenshin’s forces. That meant Mentalis was receiving the prisoners in central Illusio in the teleporter we didn’t be going through. At least the City wouldn’t be crashing into anyone as it was now stopped over a large mass of water that was the eastern Illusio reservoir.
The Munna from the warehouse be supplying Kenshin’s forces with berries and healing items like potions and other things I not be hearing of before.
Kenshin’s forces definitely be needing those healing items, because the Sigilyph were proving to be quite hard to take down when they were flying out over open air and firing constant bombardments at anyone who be trying to take the connection to the Castle of Illusion. The Wobbuffet, Mr. Mime and Drowzee were also a terrible combination to be running into on the battlefield.
Gilgamesh’s ground forces be having almost no supplies and were slowly being whittled down. From what I be hearing from Ocellus, their job was to just stall out Kenshin’s forces as long as possible and they be doing that incredibly well.
Gilgamesh be building up to being unbound during all of this and I be having no idea what that could be meaning, but it didn’t be sounding very good.
Kenshin does not be having many aerial forces that could be dealing with the Sigilyph formation, he did not be having many forces that could get by the Mr. Mime barriers. The Wobuffet be combining their shadow tags to lock opponents in place to take a severe beating. The Drowzee and Hypno were being very good at forcefully putting beings to sleep. All of these things were being really good stalling methods that be currently preventing Kenshin from securing the entrance to the Castle of Illusion.
The Dark Types we had to help us were being held back by Fairy Type attacks the enemy Psychic Types were using, the most common being the wide area blinding flash of pink energy in the form of an attack that be known as Dazzling Gleam.
They be having a near perfect defensive line, it be feeling bad to be on the wrong side of one like this.
I be shaking my head and making my way over to Ocellus who was watching over Pom as she passed out supplies from the wagon from time to time. I be helping by going out and picking up Pokémon that needed to be pulled out of the fighting with Dodo, as long as they are not being near Wobbuffet.
Dodo is being understandably scared of Wobbuffet despite how goofy they be looking.
“So what is being the damage Ocellus?” I finally be asking Ocellus about Pom’s state.
Our area was under the protection of the Gardevoir units, the Ralts line is being weird in its evolutions. Gardevoirs be looking feminine, but half of them are being male and it only because they didn’t be finding an item needed to evolve into Gallade, like Kenshin, or they chose to become a Gardevoir. Also there was the whole spike sticking through their body thing that be a bit disturbing in the way it be resembling a knife stabbed through their backs.
“Pom’s chest wound was pretty bad considering she didn’t seal it off before she was knocked out, Smolder’s kick really did some damage. That’s not the worst of it, since the Sitrus Berry juice I forced down her throat helped that a lot, because it’s her front right leg that’s the real problem. It wouldn’t stop bleeding until I wrapped it tightly with bandages and there were a few other issues with it, but I’m sure Pom would know why there’s such a problem with her leg.” Ocellus be turning her head to me to give me a knowing look and I be thinking she be talking about Pom making a sacrifice of some kind. The golden glow her leg be giving off was being very powerful, but it would be having as many downsides as most of Pom’s abilities do. “Could you check on her for me and make sure to get Dolly’s help with getting some Sitrus Berry juice in her. While the juice is not helping her right leg very much, the rest of her body could use the healing effects to replenish the amount blood loss she suffered.”
As I be climbing up into the wagon with Dodo following behind to poke his head in, I saw Dolly resting on a blanket next to Pom and be looking quite alert even if she was dozing off a bit.
She be noticing me and immediately sat up to yip something while making a gesture with a paw that basically be telling me she was happy to be seeing me.
Pom did be looking pretty terrible.
After Dolly be taking control of Pom’s body and be wincing a bit, because of how much damage she could possibly be feeling Pom to be in, she opened Pom’s mouth and we got her to drink some freshly squeezed berry juice that would be healing her insides and body.
Dolly looked to me and made a questioning sound, as she came to sit next to me while tilting her head up at me with a weak smile.
“Gilgamesh be stalling us out badly and I don’t be having any ideas how we can break through the battlefield quickly to get to the castle.” That, as I was pointing out, was being our ultimate goal here. The number of Pokémon that are being in the way be in the hundreds and Psychic Types were being quite powerful in numerous ways. Any amount of rest given to Gilgamesh’s forces would allow them time to reinforce their hold over the way to the Castle of Illusion. “If he is becoming unbound then how much more powerful will he be and how much more will Pom have to sacrifice if she even wakes up in time to make a move for the castle?”
We didn’t even know all of what Pom be sacrificing here, but the full use of her leg would probably be a safe bet at minimum.
Dplly looked upset about the idea of Pom making even more sacrifices, but she be looking at Smolder and smiling a bit. At least Smolder isn’t being under Gilgamesh’s control.
-Out on the battlefields northern side, Sanosuke the Medicham Fighter-
“…. I hate to admit this, but this isn’t going to work out in the long run. Keep up the pressure, but retreat our smaller units.” I had bowled through an entire unit of Hypno using my raw brute strength, but after that I actually took a moment to stop and think about how the battle is going. “I’m… pulling back for the time being to think this through.”
This surprised the Meditites, white onion head smaller Pokémon with dumpling shaped ears with mostly blue bodies, to look up at me with confusion considering I actually stopped to use my brain. Something I rarely, if ever, needed to do. I was just that good at fighting, but in this instance I’m not nearly good enough.
This battle was not going in our favor even if we had supplies and chance of reinforcements, their defenses were too hard to outright breach. The outright assaults they could send after us was at most minimal, they didn’t have many ground troops that could perform a deep push into our battle lines most of their troops were defensive specialist.
We were being stalled out on purpose and if we gave Gilgamesh time to do whatever, then things were going to go downhill for us.
“I’m retreating towards Kenshin’s unit!” I called out to my particular team while raising my sword in the air to draw attention. “We need a meet up, everyone else hold the area!”
-Opposite of Sanosuke’s side of the battle in the southwest quadrant, Kaoru the Gothitelle Myrmidon-
My glowing form felt like it was filled with power as I brought down my opponent, my technique worked expertly.
My bokken glowing with psychic energies had just torn through the remainder of a unit of Jynx, it was hard fought battle. Still hundreds more to go… we probably wouldn’t be able to reach the castle or Gilgamesh in time at this rate.
Competitive was my ability and anyone that thought of suppressing me with moves would see why it was a bad idea when my psychic attack strength almost doubles from my fury. Also fusing the move Psyshock to my bokken was quite helpful.
Goth squad had pushed hard, but the defenses were still holding and couldn’t be breached. We simply didn’t have the strength to puncture through.
I noticed something odd in the distance, that meat head Sanosuke was retreating towards Kenshin. He couldn’t be tired of wanting to go on the offensive, so what was he up to… could he be actually using his brain for once?
Well the world must be ending if that were the case.
-Origin Space, Arceus-
I started to whistle a fairly jaunty tune as I set up my kitchen.
-Cerebrum City Battlefield, Kaoru-
“Grab those Jynx and drag them back for detainment, then get back to me, I’ll be retreating to Kenshin’s team… something is up with Sanosuke.” My orders were quickly followed as I set out running with my bokken held out ready to defend myself from any attacks.
The Gothita were basically out of it being the weakest Pokémon of my evolutionary line, we still had some Gothorita to field the first step up and a bit tougher, the Gothitelles were being run ragged and were holding strong as the final evolutions. The pink face black haired cuties that we were, were not doing nearly as hot as Sanosuke, I will admit that while he might be dumb he was powerful enough to cause damage and push the line even if he couldn’t break it.
We had barely forced our way into their lines or made much of a dent to really break through. We needed to do something about all this, the Sigilyph were the major problems here with their long range bombardments and that’s why I didn’t have any Gothita’s on the field.
-Central highly contested combat zone, Kenshin the Gallade Assassin-
My sword had a blade on the wrong side of it for a reason, I really didn’t want to kill anyone here, but it was becoming increasingly hard not to resort to it as we needed to make progress to even reach Gilgamesh before he manages to unbind his Hoopa form.
Said blunt side of the blade smashed across the head of a Hypno elite unit and they crumpled to the ground, never knowing that I had hit them so hard and fast that they couldn’t even retaliate.
If we had to fight an unbound Hoopa… well Cerebrum City was basically already lost and it was only a matter of time, but this fight was for the fate of all of Illusio. Gilgamesh chose his forces well, all of them masters of defensive battles and he was stalling us out quite horribly.
We had the Dark Type mercenaries and the sleepers added on to my forces from the prison, but the Dark Types were being held back by Fairy Type attacks they were weak to and those who had been asleep for a long time were weakened due to atrophying in the prison.
At least wherever the Dark Types pushed they created small holes we tried to breach, but said holes were quickly filled. Gilgamesh’s forces still had numbers, but we were doing more damage than they were through sheer tenacity… and Sanosuke being a brute on the battlefield.
We needed one really good push to shatter their rigid defense and our objective was not to beat the opposing army, but get people through to the Castle of Illusion. Gilgamesh couldn’t destroy the teleporter or the Castle of Illusion would immediately fall out of the sky and the psychic power he’s been gathering would be dispersed.
So we could destroy the gateway or we could get someone through it, either one was the thing we needed to do the most right now. The Castle of Illusion was not that necessary to the continuation of Illusio, but building a new castle would take a lot of time and at that point we’d be vulnerable to Yaksha or any other kingdoms invading. The presence of the Mandibuzz was a sign that the Kingdom of Yaksha smelled weakness in the kingdom of Illusio.
I didn’t want Illusio I love to fall in such a manner, so we were better off trying to get someone up to the Castle high above Cerebrum City before we decide to destroy it. Securing it was going to take too much effort and we didn’t have airships or anything to really take it to the Sigilyph covering the northwest side of the battlefield completely.
We needed something big to change the battle, we needed a major Ninja or a Spy ploy. I would even take a Pokémon with the title of Trickster from the Dark Type mercenaries aiding us, we needed a grand plan to break the enemies blockading rhythm and badly.
“I need a Kirlia to go contact the Ghourgeist known as Shine near the Team Harmony wagon and tell her she’s needed here, if her friends volunteer to come forward with her, then let them do so. In fact, ask all of them to come forward.” I was not afraid to beg for help, Chrysalia and Violight already had their units on this battlefield and thus far they were proving to be quite determined to aid us and were an enduring, if limited, presence on the battlefield. I could at least trust them to not throw our battle lines into disarray. “Also tell someone that I want Pom to join me if she is able to when she wakes up.”
A Kirlia was chosen and they were quickly sprinting back towards the back line as we held the center area where Pom and her controlled companion had fought. The burnt away grass and trees ruined the beauty that was once here.
War was an ugly thing, but it occurred for many reasons and I had stopped as many as I started by putting my blade to a number of Pokémon under the late king’s rule. There was always a reason for things I’ve done, but that didn’t make all my actions right.
“Hey, Kenshin, battles not going to hot, we need to do something or at this rate all our fighting will be for nothing man.” Sanosuke showed up with his massive sword hanging over his shoulder.
“Kenshin, the southwest side of the battle needs more reinforcements.” Kaoru was still an ever lovely and quite intelligent figure among my troops. “Also we can’t keep going on like this, we’re losing this fight by not winning it fast enough!”
If both Kaoru and Sanosuke were agreeing, then my suggestion would probably be a relief to them.
“Do not worry my, I might have something to ruin Gilgamesh’s victory in holding us at bay… hold the lines, do not push forward, send two units to reinforce the southwest side, take down any assault and do not give ground or move until I say otherwise!” My words and psychic message were met with an immediate reaction from my side of the battlefield as the evolved forms of Munna, the Musharna, spread out to deliver my messages immediately through a psychic relay. “Now we need to wait here for the time being.”
The Musharna were slightly larger light pink headed elephants with purple bodies and clouds of dream energy coming from their forehead, a few of them had the rare ability of Telepathy that made it hard for our forces to have friendly fire as long as they stay spread out well enough among our ranks to coordinate.
I imagine that Gilgamesh was coordinating all his forces by himself, he was quite an admirable leader if that were the case, considering his objectives and what he wants to achieve.
The Musharna were mostly our support structure and not direct combat units, they were somewhat an answer to dealing with some of the Drowzee and Hypno that were melee focused, since getting close to a Musharna with ill intentions was inviting yourself to be put to sleep.
Some had Moonblast which was still effective during the day, some had Zenheadbutt for close up fighting or the move Psychic for long range psychic assaults, I was loathe to actually have them be put in combat to use the moves Misty Explosion or Healing Wish unless absolutely necessary. Both would cause a Musharna to faint with the effect of dealing damage over a wide area or healing a massive amount of my units in the field, I would not ask them to do that… but it was a move for dire circumstances.
We were not at that point yet that I’d toss a comrade away for a moderate benefit. If only we had a Musharna that knew the move Expanding Force, since the battlefield was swamped with psychic energy it would certainly be effective for slowly breaking down the Mr. Mime barrier walls preventing us from pressing forward.
I was fairly worried that an Exeggcutor, a large three headed and two legged palm tree that evolved from the Exeggcute seeds, would know Expanding Force and use it against us. I was of the belief that they were being held in reserve for that reason and were the primary protectors of the teleporter to the Castle of Illusion in the distance.
“You have need of our assistance?” Shine called out at she came forward on her stubby legs followed by five other Pokémon. “We’ve been kind of sitting around on the defense line and doing nothing aside from going forward to help the injured get back every once in a while, so we’re still relatively fresh.”
Notably the Joltik seemed distracted with the Team Harmony wagon in the back line before turning his attention back to me from his perch on the Hawlucha.
“I’m aware that the front line is relatively intimidating, but I need a Ninja ploy to disrupt their defensive battle rhythm.” At least I could see she knew what I was asking for, Shine didn’t look pale or determined, she instead looked a little thoughtful and quite. “I have some issues with asking Cotton Murkrow for assistance for several reasons, one being that I don’t know where she currently is at the moment or even what she’s planning on doing. We don’t exactly have the capacity and I know you’re a Ninja and so is Ninjask, Pokémon Companions tend to achieve miracles and you are considered at least neutral as far as kingdoms go to be asking for help. Do you have an idea of how we can disrupt their formations? Also do all you have titles?”
“Trickster.” Quetal answered, he would prove most useful with working together with Shine and he sounded like he wasn’t from Dark Type kingdom of Yaksha, but more the Ice Type kingdom of Nixtorm given his accent. Strange that he would even give his title up willingly. “Don’t ask how I got my title.”
“Noble. Don’t talk about me around anyone who could be from Viperia.” That was clearly a surprise, but I could see that Dazzle was a lot larger than most Salazzle usually get. Also I heard Viperia was missing a runaway princess… I wouldn’t be telling Viperia if nobody else would.
So I gave Dazzle a nod and then glared at Sanosuke, he raised his hands defensively while waving them at me.
“Wrestler, Lucha Mundo, a spiritual advisor… Pom’s furious fighting spirit took a drastic hit in her fight with Gilgamesh, but she did not let him go unscathed and was a terrifying sight in battle against such a grand opponent. Her fighting spirit was truly something else, though it seemed to burn out at the end there.” Lucha Mundo struck a dynamic pose that made me smile, definitely a Pugilis native. If a Fighting Type doesn’t strike poses, then they weren’t from Pugilis. “With Honor, Family, Tradition and Doughnuts we will see this day through!”
“I, Favela, am a Pirate.” The one called Favela stated with a grin and a slightly waggling brown, cheeky natured then and a free spirit that wants to travel. She probably knew the move Swagger.
I looked to Lit, he raised a leg and squeaked something unintelligible. Didn’t know what he said, but he thought he had a title apparently.
-Origin Space, Bahamut-
“Wait, that little thing has earned the title of ‘Hero’?!” It was slightly hard to imagine the little yellow fuzzy bug with bright blue eyes could carry such a lofty title.
“His colony certainly thinks he’s a hero and he certainly lives and breathes a heroic nature, even if his hunger for energy or a berry can distract him.” Arceus answered without pause from cooking up something new in his outside space and time kitchen. “Time will tell if he will continued to live up to it. I believe he has done a wonderful job thus far.”
-Cerebrum Battlefield Central holding position, Kenshin-
These six were the Pokémon companions of Team Harmony and they were all unique individuals with quite a variety of talents, they also had five titles and a possible title among them. This has to mean they were all capable of being true heroes in their own ways.
Shine was studying the battlefield carefully and we stood in silence while Kaoru and Sanosuke repelled several attacks coming our way. Mostly Woobat assaults that prodded us to try and move forward.
“If you must know, I have the title of ‘assassin’, but I’m trying to put that behind me.” Nobody batted an eye at that. Apparently none of them thought me threatening despite my history.
“So… we just get you near Gilgamesh and you’ll do the deed?” Quetal was staring at me, as if the Sneasel could sense my reluctance to kill anyone.
“If I can, I will.” That was the most I could offer.
Quetal immediately gave me a sympathetic look afterwards as if he understood why I said it that way.
“They have Woobats, Swoobats and Sigilyph, they have a lot of aerial superiority as much as defensive potential, tell me do you have any flying units that don’t rely on levitation that can be fielded?” Shine asked as we held positions and slowly Gilgamesh’s forces stopped attacking to start holding positions themselves. “The Sigilyph are being covered by the Woobat and Swoobat in the air to make attacking them up close and personal hard to do even if we could reach them.”
“The most we have is a few units of Natu and Xatu, they haven’t been fielded at all.” For good reason, they did not want to be targeted from the ground or fly into the middle of all that. “So far we’ve been keeping them in reserve for an emergency, as otherwise we would have lost them all by now.”
“I assume because they are heavily outnumbered if they were to try to close in with the Sigilyph.” Exactly Shine, we couldn’t field them safely for any long term skirmishes.
“I will gladly offer my flying ability to help deal with the Sigilyph!” Nice sentiment Mundo, but one more flying Pokémon really won’t help with the problem of being outnumbered. “I’m sure my Coaching would give them quite the boost in offensive ability.”
“While that would be nice and the Natu and Xatu would be fast enough to take down a few units, they’d be completely swarmed and taken out of the fight in minutes.” Which is a major logistics issues for me. “We only have five units of Natu and three xatu units, they would be outnumbered more than five to one.”
“Do you have a few that know the move Tailwind?” Shine was suddenly smiling brilliantly. “I have a few ideas for how to deal with the Sigilyph problem, at least enough to throw them into disarray and give everyone else time to push forward. We’ll need barrier breakers though to take all the Mr. Mimes… can you get me in contact with the one running the Dark Type mercenaries we liberated from the prison? I have an idea, I’m already certain the Morpeko unit from Violight won’t mind lending assistance and the Chrysalia unit are already doing well enough with their small artillery unit, but we’ll need some help from the Dark Types if we’re going to make this work.”
“I need a Kirlia to relay a psychic message to our reserves and one to be a messenger to the Dark Types that we need to hold a discussion about how to breach Gilgamesh’s forces.” While I was hopeful, I was worried about what Shine had in mind. The Dark Types might just leave us high and dry after being freed from the prison and having mixed results on a battlefield where they are supposed to have an advantage.
-Five minutes later Dark Type Mercaneries staging area, Zoroark-
A Kirlia threw a salute and waited patiently.
“I’ll go see what they want, it seems Gilgamesh’s forces are going to stall us out, if they have ideas we could sure use them right about now.” Any Dark Type that wanted to leave had already done so, I wasn’t about to leave as I needed to give Gilgamesh a nasty black eye somehow and I had plenty of comrades from the prison that wanted to help in this endeavor. I noticed some of my comrades looking at me with concern. “They have been good enough to lend us their supplies freely without question, so they are trustworthy.”
A number of Dark Types like me have been living peacefully among the people of Illusio for quite some time, at least until Gilgamesh showed up.
Most of us weren’t even from Yaksha and we weren’t from anywhere else either.
-Ten minutes later, Central Battlefield Rebels Gathering, Shine-
I was a little nervous, but I hoped my plan could be pulled off.
The Dark Types surprised me by being onboard for the sneak attack to cause chaos among the ranks once we got the Sigilyph tied up with the minimal numbers we could bring to bear against them, everyone that would be flying in that airspace was going to be moving as fast as they could go or else the Sigilyph would wipe them out quickly.
“I can be helping with that, since Dodo be learning a new trick. He apparently be getting enough metal in his diet to be flying now.” Shanty said as she rode forward on Dodo, he suddenly jumped and folded his legs inwards and spread his wings and was soon hovering in the air and even flying around a bit. Somewhat slow, but Dodo was quite tough and Shanty could really lay into the Sigilyph if she could get near them. Dolly also popped into the air on her board and be slowly gliding around while send me a determined look, she wasn’t slow in the air and she could even help with the plan. Shanty took notice of this. “She wants to be helping to.”
“I can work with this…” The plan was simple, we’d need a fast air raid to draw the fire of the Sigilyph from the ground forces that Kenshin will deploy. Kenshin, Sanosuke and Kaoru will attempt to bust the middle, while the Dark Types will try and sneak their forces into enemy lines and start ripping into the Mr. Mimes to the best of their abilities from the contested area to the southeast. North is doing fine, Sanosuke’s troops were relatively good for pivoting into a defensive position if this ultimately fails and I had an idea as to what we could do there. “Dolly, I’m going to need you to do something specific… you’ll be with Shanty for this. How big can you go with those tornadoes you make?”
This was important as it might give us an edge. There’s also what the six of us Pokémon Companions would doing in the north side of the battlefield on this massive floating island. It took a few minutes to hash everything out and the timing we’d need to pull some of this stuff off.
“So does everybody know the plan?” They really shouldn’t have given us time to plan or at least me the time to plan. Aside from a few easily repelled assaults from the nearly endless Woobat swarms, Gilgamesh’s forces were quite willing to wait us out. Seeing that everyone knew their parts, I grinned and brought my leafy hair claws together. “Then let’s start Operation: Panic in the Sky!”
“We’ll be being as loud as possible!” Shanty announced and then gained an odd look on her face as she glanced in the general direction of the Team Harmony wagon. I noted Dolly was playfully interacting with Lit, little guy seemed to be worried about her and was being quite affectionate. “What if Pom be waking up in the middle of all of this?”
“Ocellus will send her Kenshin’s way in the central battle line, if Pom is even capable or at least willing to keep fighting. That’s provided Pom is even in a stable or good state of mind when she wakes up.” Which wasn’t likely, I think everyone who knew Pom knows she wasn’t up for this and would still do it anyway. “Smolder is a no go on the battlefield with how vulnerable she showed herself to be to mental assaults and Ocellus will keep her in the backlines.”
If this worked we could stop avoiding the edges of the island where the Sigilyph had control of the airspace and sweep quite a number of problems out of the way.
