Invasion: Start

The morning after the meteor shower, things start as they always do. Union’s gearing up for another day: people going to work, shops opening, kids heading to school, and foremen getting their crews to work on the last of the damage left by Kyurem’s rampage through the city. It’s just an ordinary day, with only a passing thought given to yesterday’s odd occurrences by anyone outside the scientific and psychic communities. There’s some very real theories floating around there, but there’s little real chance at anything solid coming from the discourse. At least, until reports start coming up Route 1 from the single port started by one Union entrepreneur two years ago. It’d grown quickly with Gigan help, seaborne trade flowing up the lone road, and now it was completely overrun.

Panicked sailors and land crew come streaming up the way, nursing hundreds and hundreds of Bug-type induced injuries. Beedrill stings, Spinarak bites, and photographs of several enormous members of a new species that’d yet to be recorded quickly circulate and prompt Council response. Whatever these things are, they’re clearly hostile and the risk of damage to the city itself seems likely given how quickly the port had been overwhelmed.

With the city still shaken by Kyurem’s attack, the Council wasted no time. The call to arms was put out and trainers hastily sent out to deal with the sudden intrusion. Anyone willing and able to fight was asked to head down the road as quickly as possible, with the intent of sorting this out and either diverting the tide or stopping the invasion cold. The road itself is deserted, abandoned wagons left in a hurry, and not a single wild Pokemon can be heard for miles. It’s almost like they were aware something big was coming, and even the more aggressive types clearly opted to clear out.

When it comes into view, the port itself seems to be in particularly bad shape. Smoke rises up into the horizon, and hundreds and hundreds of Bug types swarm all over the structures, chewing away at the wood and stone. But perhaps the most troublesome sight is the beings that are overseeing the attack. Several members of the new species, fifteen feet tall at minimum, twenty at the peak, direct the swarm in its efforts. And further out to sea, a singularly massive specimen, some forty feet tall, watches it all, hunched forward, dark eyes gleaming with interest as its minions go to work…

Veronica's next Weather Ball aims for the cannon. Nemesis gets clipped by Signal Beam and falls out of the sky, but manages to flap over to Veronica and provide her cover so she can keep the ice going.

They have to finish this soon!

Duo went digging through his bag. His Charizard tried to use Dragon Rage. The two of them were having some serious issues moving, though, as Duo tried really hard to find more anti-paralysis sprays.

Houndoom kept a perimeter watch in the meantime, knowing his mostly fire-based attacks were pretty useless with an ice-based strategy. So, he stayed back for now, watching for any others that might try to make an attack.

Duskull stayed with the fight, firing off a Shadow Ball.

His eyes shot open at that terrible noise, ears pressing back - trying for one more push to completely freeze it before it could do whatever it was.

Ja'far and Badr pulled back, the latter was almost limping from the blow it took to protect Sinbad.

That glowing does not look good. No. No, it does not.

"Fall back!" Veronica keeps up the hailstorm but takes her own advice, looking for cover. Whether it's about to make a comeback or go for one last gasp, her troops had better not be in the line of fire.

Duo cringed at what was coming. With having used the anti-paralysis on both of them, he climbed back on Charizard's back and took off again. Houndoom and Duskull both backed off quickly, and Duo dove down, seeing that Sinbad was busy, and offered a lift to the injured Badr.

"C'mon! We'll carry you!" If Badr accepted, Duo would pull him up and have Charizard fly off as fast as possible!
