digging her hands through the snow, trying to ignore how close to frostbite her hands were. The crystal inlaid in the bracelet on her wrist began to glow. "Choux!! Can you hear me?" She called as she stood up with shaky legs. She crossed her wrists over her face, and the crystal shone even brighter. Her arms seemed to move on her own, a dance she somehow knew, had the Springtime Pyukumuku taught it to her? She ended the Z-move with a swift punch of her right fist, and the snow in front of her was enveloped in light. Choux burst from the snow, kicking and punching wildly until he slammed into Abomasnow. The move hit much harder than Athena thought it would. She barely knew anything about Z-moves, but after seeing multiple variations of them throughout this battle, she understood they could do some serious damage. The Abomasnow was knocked off balance into the mountian, creating another Avalanche. "Choux! Come here!" Athena yelled, her voice cracking. Her Snubbull began to run, his little legs carrying him as fast as he could before jumping into the protection of Athena's arms. She held him close as she ran, sliding to a halt once she felt they were a safe enough distance. "I can't believe we...wow. Are you ok bud?" Athena lifted her Pokemon up to get a better look at him. He was panting, but didn't look too hurt. Choux broke the tension by licking Athena's face. She giggled. They were too far away to contribute to the battle any further, and the pair watched as several more Z-moves and powerful explosions rained down on Abomasnow. The trial captain that had led them here began a powerful attack with her Mawile. Athena and Choux looked on in awe. Would she be able to have a strong enough bond with her Pokemon to use that kind of power? Had she already done so with Choux? The trial captain's Mawile eventually wavered, Athena winced. Choux started to growl again, looking behind Athena at something approaching. From behind her, as well as from almost every direction, crowds of Ice Pokemon were arriving. As they passed her and the other trainers, they didn't make any sign of attacking. Athena and Choux watched silently as the Pokemon walked and floated by, led by a Glalie and Froslass. The trial captain was able to explain, they were there to help. Once the Abomasnow looked to be completely frozen, Athena felt safe enough to approach the group of trainers gathered around the trial captain and a pile of rocks Glalie had left behind. The trial captain made a celebratory snow angel, and Athena would have joined her if she wasn't so cold and tired. Choux had fallen asleep in her arms. Back in Galea Town, Athena joined the group of trainers again, hot chocolate in hand. Choux was at her side, begging for a sip of the chocolatey drink. The trial captain as well as many of the other Cloud Garden natives gave their thanks. Athena made a note to visit this place some time when it wasn't so cold. Once it was her turn, she took a look over the many items offered as a gift. She grabbed a few TMs, thanked Athena, and went on her way, making sure to stop and let Choux drink some hot chocolate before they left. Monte grew to Lv. 8! Eclair grew to Lv. 15! Choux grew to Lv. 16! Claiming: Never-Melt Ice x1Teaching TM13 Ice Beam to Eclair. |

Much to Bill's surprise, however, the Pokemon weren't surrounding the trainers, well they were, but not because they were planning to fight said trainers. They were actually surrounding the Abomasnow. They all teamed up to fight against the massive beast. Apparently, they weren't such huge fans of the Pokemon, since it had basically invaded their homes, forcing them to try to invade the rest of Cloud Garden, but now that it's weakened, they're fighting back and fighting hard. It wasn't long before the Abomasnow caved. The ice types all attempted to make amends themselves, especially the Glalie. This Pokemon was apparently the same one that was guarding the Waterfall area. Either way, it seemed very apologetic and sent out its own gifts. "It's...over, sir," Trono said. "We can finally rest." "Thank goodness," Bill sighed in relief. "I was worried that we might have to consider this area lost. There's still a lot of places I want to go here..." After a long rest, the group ended up being given their own presents, Bill received a bag with some Nevermelt Ice, an Ice Stone, an Icy Rock, a TM containing Hail, and some Icium Z. That last one would be very useful later on, especially since water-types mainly have access to ice type moves, and that isn't to mention that his newest addition, Carmen, also is an Ice type with a move to match. Still though, Bill put the items in his bag, then headed out. He might return to the Cloud Garden, but for now, he was ready to head for his next big adventure. ------ Thank you so much for this event. It was a lot of fun and it was cool. *crickets* ahem... cool. *even more crickets* okay fine. But yeah, I'm happy that we got to go through this. |

"This is what being a Pokémon Trainer is," Mélina thought, as she called back Catalina in its Pokéball then stared at it. "Trust between human and Pokémon, working together towards a goal, no matter how hard the decisions are." The trainer continued to be shocked of the scene. Every single Pokémon of the other trainers, despite their incredible strength, were dropping like flies against the snow abomination. It seemed like there was nothing stopping him... And then all the other ice Pokémon everyone fought against showed up. Mélina mumbled in worry, believing there was no way her team would keep up and counter such a glacial army, even with the other trainers' help. Her whimpering went to a stop though, when she witnessed the surprising turn of event of the enemies of before actually turning against what everyone first assumed to be their leader. Maybe he was, but did something that rubbed them the wrong way? Mélina couldn't really tell, but assumed that perhaps the Abomasnow went a little bit over the top with his winter rampage to their taste. Even Athena theorized it was because his tantrum started destroying the environment and consequentially their homes; so obviously, they didn't take his actions kindly. With their ice powers combined, they froze their leader completely, and pushed it back into the cave. As most of them departed while the hail and avalanche calmed down, a Glalie and its related of its species stayed longer. the Face Pokémon looked at all the trainers, and despite its fearsome appearance, its eyes spoke volumes, filled with sorrow and regrets, as if asking for forgiveness for how they all acted the last few days. As the sealed the cave shut with a frozen wall, the rest of the ice Pokémon slowly left. Mélina finally brought her jaw back up, and let out a sigh of relief. It was all finally over. As everyone arrived at the town, the villagers erupted a celebration to thank their saviors, rushing to heal all the trainer's Pokémon. Excited and wanted to celebrate with everyone who helped her, Mélina let out all the Pokémon she had with her - Glitch, Soleil, Lune, Catalina... even those that didn't had the chance to participate, like Lucette and the recently-captured Oyuki. They all enjoyed themselves as they were pampered with hot chocolate and playful banters with the local children. Before the party died down and the trainers left, Athena gave a last big thanks to everyone, and offered them some parting gifts - shiny, icy rocks that were encased in the giant boulder from the big fight on top of the mountain. (Mélina couldn't help smiling proudly, betting the boulder came from Catalina's Continental Crush.) The trainer nodded politely as she collected her presents, and after a bit of struggling of calling back her Pokémon, she left the mountainous village quietly. It was surely a couple of days that Gaela Town will never forget, but it was also days that Mélina wouldn't forget, either. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Glitch's level goes from 23 to 26! Catalina's level goes from 25 to 28! Picking up the following:
Thank you very much for this gigantic campaign, Patches, morningstar and Gary! ^^ It sure was a doozy and tiring thing for me to post constantly every week, so I can only imagine the hard work you guys pulled off! Rest well now guys, and good job Last edited by OkikuMew; 02-12-2018 at 09:41 PM. |

Between the damage the Abomasnow is causing to the mountain, and the destructive power of multiple Z-moves and other powerful attacks, it feels a bit like the world is ending. Eskil can only flee from the Avalanches and Earthquakes caused by this last climactic battle. Khione is stuck in the middle of it all, and Eskil can't help but remember the outcome of the last fight he sent her into. This one ends just as poorly for the Sneasel. After dealing with the damage caused by others' attacks, she faces down the monster--and loses. It isn't a surprise given the difference in strength and the other hits she has taken, but Eskil still calls out in worry when she disappears under the Abomasnow's bulk, fighting to the end. He is quick to return her once the Abomasnow is back on its feet. The mountain isn't safe for anyone, let alone a tiny fainted Sneasel. With Khione down for the count, he can only watch the rest of the Pokemon fight. For a moment, it seems that they have won, as the Abomasnow collapses, and even when it manages to stand, it is obvious that it has nearly run out of energy. He is distracted from the fight by Nyx's hiss of warning. He turns to look, and his heart sinks. With victory so close at hand, the sight of an army of the Ice Pokemon they had spent the last few days driving off surrounding them is like a punch in the gut. The trainers likely don't have the numbers or energy to fight off all of them this point. But the Ice types make no move to attack the trainers, and instead, apparently angered by the destruction, drive back and seal away the Abomasnow. Everything has ended so abruptly, that Eskil stands numbly for a few moments. Athena calls out her relief, and after gathering up the rocks left behind by the Ice types as an apology, guides the weary trainers back down the mountain. Eskil doesn't have the energy to celebrate, just mechanically follow the rest back. Loaded into carriages to return to town, Eskil cradles Khione's Pokeball in his hands. The fight had been brutal, and he feels responsible for forcing her to take on another enemy that was so much stronger. He'd have to apologize once she was all healed up. The townsfolk greet them warmly, and Eskil is relieved when someone takes Belial and Khione for healing. Nyx waves them off, having had no part in the battle, and stays by his side as he nurses the hot cocoa passed out by the townspeople. Resting for a bit sounds good, especially as the hot drink banishes some of the chill. Athena calls the trainers together to offer them the gifts left by Glaile, and Eskil takes the ones handed to him without much thought. One catches his eye. A shimmering blue Z-crystal. Having seen the power unleashed by the small items, he takes it with little hesitation. Perhaps it would be useful if they ever found themselves in another situation. Pokemon healed, loot collected, and threat neutralized, Eskil doesn't stick around. Finding a warm place to sleep for a week is the next thing on his agenda. (OOC: Belial grows from Lv. 29 to Lv. 33. Khione grows from Lv. 20 to Lv. 22. Claiming: Never-Melt Ice x1 Icy Rock x1 Ice Stone x1 TM Hail x1 Icium-Z x1 Thanks for the fun event!) |

Chroma had looked around in a more-than-slight panic as she desperately grasped at multiple pokeballs when the army of Ice Types suddenly appeared over the ridge. There was little chance that the trainers would be able to win now, especially since these foes arrived just as a large swath of their pokemon had just fallen all at once. The rules hardly meant a dang thing when it came to fighting for one's own life, so she doubted that anyone would complain if she used more than one to cover their retreat, if that was even possible at this point. "I refuse to go down here..." she muttered through grit teeth. Such concerns had ultimately proved to be moot, however, when the army unexpectedly turned on the abomasnow, barraging it with intense waves of cold air that even the frozen behemoth couldn't endure directly anymore. Once their previous leader was disposed of, the mass of frosty critters disappeared just as suddenly as they had arrived, leaving the defending force to stand dumbfounded in the snow-covered clearing. Both sides were undoubtedly tired out after the long day of fighting, though Chroma couldn't help but wonder what the Ice Types were doing to unwind as she sipped on her much-needed mug of hot chocolate. Certainly, they weren't comfortable with sitting around a bonfire- that'd probably have the opposite effect on them. "I'd better figure that out sooner than later," she stated plainly as she looked at the pokeball in her hand. "This guy's too precious to make uncomfortable every waking moment, after all." She'd probably stay in town for a little bit- this day had put her at high risk of catching a cold, and it wouldn't be very wise to travel in that condition, after all! In the meantime, she'd have to figure out what to do with all the goodies the glalie had left them. This evening sure was full of surprises... ~ ~ ~ *Elenchos was elevated from Lv. 23 to Lv. 26!* Using TM Blizzard on Sneachd the vulpix, and giving him the Icy Rock to hold. *Sneachd learned Blizzard!* Using TM Ice Punch on Louise the mawile (with 28 Bond, if that happens to matter). *Louise learned Ice Punch!* And collecting everything else for later use. Thanks for the event, everyone! |

"It's alright Jayson", conveyed Sigurd as he slowly dragged himself out of the snow, "that Abomasnow was unlike anything we have ever faced." Jayson rushed to the Gallade's side, quickly putting his arm around the Psychic type to support him. "We weren't strong enough", Jayson sighed, "both you and Spartacus were knocked unconscious, some trainers didn't even lose one Pokemon!" Jayson clenched his fist, he couldn't stand it. "We need to train harder, we need to get stronger." Sigurd didn't reply, he was far too exhausted, but Jayson could tell by their mental link that the Gallade agreed with him. They made their way back into town with the rest of the group. Sigurd and Spartacus were treated and healed, thankfully their was no long term injuries from the encounter. Jayson met with a man who had captured a Cubchoo while protecting the town, he was happy to part with the bear, much to Jayson's pleasure. They were rewarded for their efforts, a handful of gifts that Jayson was pleased to receive. Most importantly he managed to get his hands on another Z Crystal, Icium Z which would come in handy considering he had recently added some Ice types to his team. As everyone started to go their separate ways, Jayson retrieved his Pokegear from his bag and called Valka. "Hey sweetie", Valka had remained at their new base to oversee construction and ensure their Pokemon continued training. "Sorry I haven't called, the situation was a little worse than I expected." "Well at least I know you're safe now!" Their was a touch of anger in Valka's voice, but Jayson knew it was simply her being worried. "Will you be home soon? The base is coming along nicely." Jayson sighed, "unfortunately not right now baby, we need to do a bit more work here. Step up the training for all the Pokemon, we need to get stronger, in case something like this happens again." "Are you alright hun? It sounds like something has gotten too you?" She was spot on, even without seeing him she could tell when he wasn't feeling the best. "I'll be fine, just need a bit of time, love you honey, I'll be home soon." "I love you too", Valka replied, hanging up shortly after. Jayson recalled Sigurd into his Pokeball and began to walk out of the town. He had no real idea of where he was going, but he knew he needed some time to clear his mind. |
