6th roar [ video + action for violet ]

[adamant]

[ The feed starts with a very enthusiastic GOOOOO LEOOOON from a certain excited ninja. The first shot is of Lightning, who is glaring Yuffie down from the next seat over. Giggling and cheering, Yuffie turns the gear towards the match in progress. Noctowl and Honchkrow have presumably already been taken down, as currently Skarmory is facing down Falkner's Pidgeot. Both birds are in flight over the arena, but Pidgeot is slightly wobbly from poison; it's clear that Flood did a number on it already.

Yuffie is making obnoxious commentary a full play-by-play as the match continues; both pokemon have used Agility repeatedly, and the result is difficult to follow. One second Skarmory is diving for Pidgeot, the next Pidgeot is slamming its wing into Skarmory's head. Unfortunately for Pidgeot, its efforts are in vain: Skarmory has the type advantage. Skarmory uses Pidgeot's proximity to catch it in her talons, and unleashes a hideous Metal Sound at point-blank range. Pidgeot screams and flails away, causing Skarmory to lose her balance; their talons still twined, they go plummeting down in a cloud of blades and feathers.

Skarmory's metal shell means the impact doesn't bother her much; Pidgeot, on the other hand, poisoned and dizzy, is out. Yuffie gives a shrill whistle, effectively drowning out Lightning's own cheer. Skarmory shrieks triumphantly before she and Pidgeot go back to their respective pokeballs. The feed clicks out. ]

[ooc. Light and Yuffie used with permission! Thank you~]

I'll be leaving Violet at the earliest opportunity. I should be in Azalea by the end of the week, if all goes well.

What were they supposed to do, exactly?

[ It must have been important, if the people in charge were willing to waste all that money on genetically engineered creatures. ]

Keep the peace, like the rest of us. Sometimes there were people would put bombs at train stations during heavy traffic hours, others caused riots in the streets. It was easier to replace a creature that it was to recruit and retrain entire squads.

[ He nods. That makes sense. So it was all mostly internal, from her description. ] You never fought any outside threats?

[She shakes her head again. Up until the Purge, there hadn't been any outside threats. Even then, it had just been one Fal'Cie from Pulse.] Not until the day we were marked. I'd left the military just before that.
