Log:
[Hiro was asleep when he heard the crashes. Naturally, being a Manly Protagonist and all, he rushed to the window and... saw a bunch of bugs? Seriously, everywhere he looked, there seem to be bugs coming out of nowhere - in the middle of the night no less.

What was worse, there were people out there. Already a couple were on the ground, the locals from the looks of it, while others were calling out their Pokemon to start fighting back. It was chaos, chaos of a level that Violet City hadn't seen in a long, long time.

... For some reason, though, he found it almost comforting to see chaos erupting like this. Maybe not comforting, but... The moment passed quickly, however, and he turned away from the window right away.]


Guess it's back to work...!

[He grabbed his headphones and his PokeBalls and made a dash for the door.]


OOC: HOW THIS WILL WORK. We've done posts like these before! There will be starter comments for each place, and then individual threads within them - be it a city or a route. All depends on you. Since everyone is so spread out though, I ask that if your location isn't up to start the initial thread for it first - like I'll have with a few of the major towns.

Now, if you don't want to take part in this log and just want to get right to posting, feel free, though hopefully this will cut down on the initial reactions at least. Remember: Your power is YOURS.

[Yayoi's sitting on top of her Mamoswine, the mammoth Pokemon swiping at circling Yanma with her icy tusks; the Torchic next to her is helping to keep them at bay with her own Sunny Day-powered Embers.]

I don't know...! I didn't even know there were this many bug Pokemon in the wild!!

[Mitsuru lifts a foot to pound into the face of a Paras with her boot-- right before it can let out a Stun Spore attack right at her. Fighting Shadows at home certainly had it's advantages]

I don't think there are. This seems like an artificial attack to me!
10yen_idol: (S-Stop that!)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-13 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Yayoi can't help but wince at that stomp. Miss Mitsuru's so cool and yet, sometimes, so scary]

Eh!? Miss Mitsuru, you think someone's behind this!?

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. [Fanning her hair out behind her with one hand as she spins around to give yet another Paras another kick]

As I stated, I've never seen wild Pokemon act this irrationally before. Something must be causing it.
10yen_idol: (Uuuuuuu...)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
Uuu... who could even THINK of making them all attack cities like this?

[Yayoi hangs on as Yukiho suddenly rears up and breathes an Icy Wind at a few stray Yanma, and then comes back down with enough force to crack the pavement and knock a few Paras off their feet.]

I'm not sure. [A few more bugs are sent scattering via the Arcanin, and Mitsuru glances around the area to make sure it's safe, before turning back to Yayoi]

There was an ominous post made to the network Friday evening, at midnight. I wouldn't be surprised if that was our culprit.
10yen_idol: (Accident!?)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Yayoi breathes a small sigh of relief. It looks like they've managed to create a space around them, at least for now.]

Eh? Really!? I-I thought that was a prank or something, so I didn't listen too long to it...

I REALLY hope he didn't manage to train them all or something like that!

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
I truly wish I knew what he has done to them, Takatsuki. I truly do.
10yen_idol: (S-Stop that!)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Same here. I-I mean... if he can do this to ALL Pokemon...

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
He must have trained for months.
10yen_idol: (If only we had enough money for dinner)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Uuuu... I still can't believe anyone would prepare so long just to do something like this!

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
I can't either. Treating Pokemon like this is absolutely disgraceful. Whoever is responsible should be thoroughly punished.
10yen_idol: (Memory Appeal)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
I hope so, too... I bet everyone will be looking for him after this is all over!

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
I would hardly blame them.
10yen_idol: (BIG SIS IS DISAPPOINT)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Nodnod.] Me too!

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
[a nod at Yayoi] This area is clear. Are you still able to fight?
10yen_idol: (BIG SIS IS DISAPPOINT)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yayoi nods back, mentally and physically bracing herself.] I-I think so! All my Pokemon are okay, so...!

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Then we should find another infested area to clear. I have yet to check near the gym, though I'm sure Jasmine is taking care of herself just fine.
10yen_idol: (Memory Appeal)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-14 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
She'll be fine because she's got steel-types... I just hope that no one got caught on the way to challenge her.

-- anyway, um, I'm coming with you!

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
As do I, though the streets seem to be mostly clear of endangered citizens.

Thank you, Takatsuki. [a nod to her Arcanine] Let's go!
10yen_idol: (DON'T YOU DARE WASTE THAT TEN YEN!!)

[personal profile] 10yen_idol 2011-04-15 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
R-Right! Let's do our best! [And off she goes, still riding atop her Mamoswine.]

[identity profile] bufudyned.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Mitsuru (some what awkwardly) hoists herself up onto Jean's back, before riding full force toward the gym! LET'S GO FIGHT SOME BUGS YAYOI, YEEEAH]
10yen_idol: (GO! EMERGENCY RATIONS!)
