We Can See You Hate The Way We Intermingle

Who: Participants of the Freaky Fusions Boss Battle!
Where: Birth Island, in the Sevii Islands!
When: Thursday, October 29th through Friday, October 30.
Summary: You blinked, and now you've been glitched. And that sure is a spooky-looking Fusion Legendary, all right...
Rating: PG-13; please remember to mark threads accordingly if they go higher!
Log:


Well, draw some intersecting lines and call me a Triforce, this sure is an island, all right.


KEY:
• The GLOWING X at the upper portion of the island is where you will find Mewssingno! It won't be moving around much, so it will always be in the relative top section of the island, furthest from the safe haven for participants in the south. Exercise caution getting close to it, because...

• The PURPLE area surrounding Mewssingno is all area that will be affected by glitches! Inside that area, strange environmental things are likely to occur, such as attacks being deflected, neutralized, or outright disappearing and reappearing somewhere else, as if passing through a very small wormhole in space! You may play around with these effects as much as you like, but they should be contained to this particular area, and remember to ask permission from other players before randomly diverting a Hyper Beam through a wormhole directly at them in tags.

STANDARD GRASSY areas in the lower part of the map are places in which characters are guaranteed to be safe from Mewssingno's glitches; however, these areas will be overrun by Fusion Abominations, so if you're just here for the garden-variety fighting of SquirtWeedMagneZards, this is probably where you'll be spending a lot of your time!

• The BLUE STAR in the south indicates a guaranteed safe zone from both Mewssingno and the Fusion Abominations. This is the station where a ferry to the island would dock, so you can find places to sit and a general atmosphere of relative quiet in here, making it a good place to store your wounded or to hide out. Characters may notice ICly that the Fusion Abominations and Mewssingno are avoiding this zone, or at least leaving it alone!

It doesn't look like anything I've seen here.

[It looks like something Varrick would want to put in a mover for heroic benders to fight. Maybe stomping on a big city. That's one good thing, Korra figures. At least it's here on this island, and not somewhere populated causing even more damage.]

[But what if it took off?]


We just have to try everything and see what hurts it.

I don't know...

[She wants to stop it. Really. She'd seen the chaos that Aqua and Magma's legendary beasts had caused, and she doesn't want to see that happen again. But they're going up against a complete unknown here.]

If we pick something that has no effect against it, we could be in deep trouble.

[After all, if the smaller, more common-type fusions were okay with attacking them, then this one might not have any qualms about it either.]

Not if we throw more than one attack at once. We utilize our teams, and hit it with opposing attacks. If it's immune to one, it's not likely to be immune to the opposite...

[Right? Korra really wishes she knew more about these things.]

And keep moving. But I have to do something.

But there are so many types, and if that thing is a fusion like all the other pokemon we've fought so far, it might have types that can completely balance out any weaknesses...

[To her credit, Elsa does sound reluctant as she speaks. She wants to help people, but she doesn't want to see Korra get hurt charging at an unknown enemy.]
bent_the_world: (what is wrong with you?)

[personal profile] bent_the_world 2015-11-10 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh!

[Elsa's right, of course, and that's what's so frustrating to Korra. They're dumped here, with Pokemon powers and their teams, and they can't even do anything! Her tail and ears are straight and flat, displaying her angry irritation.]

This isn't fair! Why are we here to fight this thing if we can't even fight it?!?
defyingfrigidity: (I hope you're happy)

[personal profile] defyingfrigidity 2015-11-10 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
[It's hard to tell beneath the skull mask, but a pained look crosses Elsa's face. She can understand the frustration, and god, it hurts so much seeing her friends so distressed like this...]

Who knows what goes through the minds of Pokemon? Especially something like that...

[She takes a breath, and cautiously approaches. She knows Korra would never hurt anyone, but with pokemon powers... well. Elsa knows all about powers reacting badly to anger and frustration.]

But we can still do good here. If we can keep an eye on the smaller ones, if we can just knock them out, maybe we can stop more from leaving the island and hurting other people out in Johto and Kanto.
bent_the_world: (fierce determination)

[personal profile] bent_the_world 2015-11-10 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. Okay.

[But Korra's eyes are on the real threat. She's sure it's controlling the little ones, in some way. Fighting the smaller ones was like trying to seal up each crack of ice, instead of the main break.]

[But at least it's something. Much as Korra hates to turn away from the giant thing, at least it's something.]


But if I get a shot....
defyingfrigidity: (and if I'm flying solo)

[personal profile] defyingfrigidity 2015-11-10 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
It's tempting...

[Elsa, thanks to a certain redheaded princess, knows how futile it is to tell a stubborn person "you absolutely cannot do this". So... perhaps a compromise?]

But only if you're in a good position to run. And not just take cover... with how big and powerful that thing is, I'm not sure if cover would even work.
