This world is inhabited by creatures that we call pokemon. People and pokemon live together by supporting each other, but now the scourge threatens the safety of the entire region. Kohaku has become a dangerous place, where children stay at home and only brave souls go adventuring.
Welcome to KOHAKU. Come for the nightmares. Stay for the tea and crumpets.
The season is SUMMER. It is easy for survivors to forage for food from the land, as there are entire abandoned farms ready for harvest. On the downside, you can smell the corpses.

forming a team of pokémon was a delicate task for J. he wished to train them against the scourge, but he wasn't a man best equipped for this. an entire team of steel-types was more than often not a death-wish. he trekked through the soggy patches around the lake, occasionally glancing at it to see if anything poked its head out of the water.
people say they used to belong to the same trainer, but that's a myth. they're just a gang who got together somehow, somewhere. none of them really 'member.
yet still, they work better in numbers. and they're gonna take town this trainer. they all yip together in perfect coordination, their barks sounding oddly like words.
This thread is timeline shenanigans, apparently. That's alright. Neo is inexplicably here. Recall: she likes hanging around Lake Pax, because she hates herself or something. Anyhow, the Kawaii Krew will regret their existence when they realize how much paperwork it is to keep track of a battle with five participants.
Neo heard the commotion from afar, had been hearing them for an hour now. Slowly, she'd tracked a pack of scourge pokemon. When she finally found them, she was glad to see that she wouldn't have to battle them all alone.

a figure appeared to stand opposite J, and for a moment, he wondered if it was an agent. it turned out that it wasn't one -- in fact, it was neo. despite standing on opposite sides of the field, they were on the same side. J was glad for that.
J sent out samurott focus badge mimics x-accuracy samurott used acc-hydro pump on flareon samurott used swords dance samurott used aqua tail on flareon (bouquet)

flareon stumbled about and fell on her side. she gave a few loud barks. "much fight. such mean. very ow." and she died as the rest of the krew gathered around her body. except espeon. espeon stared at j so hard that he might shit his pants.
umbreon gave a wolf howl and growled, preparing herself for battle as vaporeon dragged flareon's mangled body into the woods. they'll dig her a grave later.
the reinforcements are somewhere among the trees and nature in lake pax when they hear umbreon's call. they comeas quickly as they can, one with a chilling aura and the other with flowers sprouting among it's feet.
flareon faints flareon is dragged away (uncatchable)
espeon used yawn on lucario espeon used dazzling gleam on hydreigon espeon used sand attack on hydreigon espeon used shadow ball on reuniclus

"I should let you know that I was tracking a bigger pack than five," Neo said, completely unhelpful because the reinforcements had already shown up.
reuniclus dodges x-scissor reuniclus hit by shadowball, faint attack, icy wind, sand attack, blizzard reuniclus uses hidden power: fire on glaceon (reuniclus takes 1/2 dmg from dark and x1 damage from ghost btw)

"that's fine," J muttered. as long as he wasn't handling this alone, he was alright. he didn't particularly care about any of the scourge pokémon's reactions.

excadrill dodged blizzard excadrill hit by icy wind, tickle, yawn hone claws's atk buff cancels out tickle's atk debuff excadrill used rock slide on glaceon and jolteon
glaceon is the next to fall, ironically enough, even after having just arrived. she falls over onto her side with much pompour, and it's all the others can do to drag her away with all the theatrical moaning she's doing.
really. you'd think a pokemon would have more dignity than that.

Belatedly, Neo realized they were battling against an entire horde of enemies, and worse than most hordes, they had the type coverage most trainers could only dream of.
Also, they were adorable little homicidal maniacs. That was always rather strange.
reuniclus hit by sand attack reuniclus uses tailwind reuniclus uses thunder on umbreon
hydreigon hit by swift, yawn, yawn hydreigon uses oblivion wing on umbreon hydreigon uses roost hydreigon uses fire blast on umbreon

neo takes umbreon's dex entry
reuniclue 80% hydreigon 60% lucario 75% vertigo -- (espeon had a fifth attack, but i don't think it actually changes the battle much)
type coverage meant nothing to J. steel-types were always sturdy and guaranteed to inflict neutral damage somehow. J watched the glaceon get hauled away by the rest of the eeveelution pack and thought nothing of it. the last one probably couldn't get dragged away unless more scourge appeared, in which case he was ready to smash their faces in as well.
samurott was hit by everything samurott fainted J recalled samurott.
charizard was hit by shadow ball, feint attack and hydro pump charizard used heat wave on all enemies charizard used scary face on vaporeon charizard used air slash on umbreon (bouquet) L7xWOegY <30 flinches

J sent out skarmory focus badge mimics x-accuracy skarmory used acc-air slash on umbreon <30 flinches skarmory used defog on all enemies
homicidal maniacs they may be, the pack is having too much fun trying to mow down their opponents. in their minds, they're kings of the world, even if the vaporeon is feeling like an idiot for attempting a toxic at a lightscreened lucario.
...although the rants that the jolteon is having at the sides isn't helping much. those are some really creative insults he's got going there. hm, I wonder where he got them from?
also, the others are pretty much pissed off at being ignored. showtime!
espeon hit by heatwave espeon used charm on charizard espeon used swift on reuniclus espeon used yawn on skarmory

yeah. J would have appreciated some more fossils, or a pack of tms to be used. those things don't really come cheap. who knew how long this battle was going to last, anyway.

...so they can't dodge. their narrator is delighted, the krew... not so much.
"what the bloody fuck do you think you're doing you son of a bitch"
espeon hit by heatwave espeon used dazzling gleam on charizard espeon used swift on hydreigon
umbreon hit by heatwave umbreon hit by everything else umbreon fainted. it was dragged away by the still cursing jolteon. apparently no one's getting a scourge specimen today.
vaporeon hit by rock slide, heat wave vaporeon used hydro pump on charizard vaporeon used aurora beam on skarmory
jolteon hit by everything jolteon feels like an idiot jolteon used wish
leafeon hit by everything leafeon used leaf blade on excadrill leafeon used x-scissor on excadrill
Neo threw a virus ball at jolteon, because if it's using wish, it must be low on HP, or so goes the theory. Somewhere out there, an old man that teaches children how to catch wild pokemon (wait until they have been weakened!) is proud.
"That one's my favorite," she said, perhaps to J, or perhaps to no one in particular.
hydreigon hit by swift hydreigon uses oblivion wing on leafeon hydreigon uses roost hydreigon uses fire blast on leafeon
