Darius
As the yanma gets even faster, the bellsprout falls back, the kid apparently trying to frantically figure out his next move. Guess he didn't pack anti air.
Li
Sheeva only hits dirt as the oddish steps back, then spits a cone of acid at her, giving a terrified little squeak at the fact she's already up.
[roll0]-acid again, 2+sp. def, cone 2, bunch of stuff I rolled too low on to take effect.

Genis
"Eh? Calcium here's just keeping an eye on the cameras, son. Geodudes are very patient. Ain't that right, Cal?"
The guard turns, while the geodude lifts a fist and gives a thumbs up.
"Geo!"
His trainer nods, before turning back to you.
"See? Ain't a thing wrong with him. Anyways, here's the deal. For the past few weeks, there have been stealthy break ins, but the odd thing is that nothing gets taken, there is no sign of break in, and by the time anyone got there the first times there was no sign of any interference. When we put people in there, they were put to sleep and the cameras shorted out, and more than that there's been items broken in more recent break ins, with the damage spreading to the other parts of the museum as well. Any questions so far?"
Alexandria
You wait there for maybe an hour before a very tired and annoyed looking Jenny who looks to the guard, a manetric at her side. First, she looks to the guards.
"You are dismissed. Wait outside, if you're needed I'll call you in."
As he moves outside, she sits across from you, looking over some notes on the current situation before looking up at you with a look that speaks of long days of people thinking that for some reason or another they can ignore the law.
"So...you put a bunch of kids to sleep with a pokemon attack because they were annoying you, correct? And-" She shuffles some papers here, and her eyes widen-"-really? That many dragons? Sweet Arceus. You aren't a poacher, are you?"
She looks less annoyed at the chance to have something not mundane to deal with.
(Charm helps here)

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex blinks at the word poacher and says, "What? No! Those guys are the worst! I'm just a contest star! I knocked the kids out because I didn't have any other ideas of how to deal with them! And I'm sorry, I really am, but for the love of Rayquayza, yes! All of my pokemon are dragons! Why is this such a big deal!?"

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons

Alexandria
The Jenny raises a hand half placatingly.
"Calm down there a bit kid, I'm just saying that it's damn unlikely. Here, Echo'll explain."
She pulls out a phone, and after some tapping a cubic pokemon appears on the screen. It gives a cheerful wave to the officer.
"Greetings, Officer Jenny. What may I help you with?"
With a smile, she flips the phone around to face you.
"Breakdown on rarity of dragon type pokemon, ending with what's the chances of a team of five dragons on a veteran trainer?"
With a small beep, the porygon nods, looking to Alex now.
"Understood. The average trainer has a 1 in 800 chance of seeing a single dragon type in their lifetime in person. 1 in 2000 to own a pokemon that can become a dragon type and have the chromosome markers that keep them from being, like most of their species, unable to evolve, based on phenotypic studies and genetic testing. 1 in 10,364 have a dragon that begins as a dragon. 1 in 585,681 own two different dragon types by age 70. 1 in 2,358,785,900 own five dragon species. Notable trainers with more than one dragon are Lance, Clair, and Drasna. Dragon pokemon are noted on every endangered species list of each region."
Officer Jenny looks to you on that, leaning back.
"So, beginning to get why they're a big deal, kid?"
Genis
"Could be, but you know how many things can hold ghosts? We're checking, but we don't even have a guarantee it's even in the museum to start! So we're getting some help to keep an eye on all the worst off areas while we conduct our sweep, and if they catch it all the better."
Darius
The bellsprout digs in deep, not quite sure what to do while its foe is so far away.
(Use Growth because )
Li
The oddish hops over the strike, spraying acid again.
[roll0]-acid, 2+sp. def

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alex's jaw drops to the floor and her eyes become as big as dinner plates as she says, "Oh. But...But that makes no sense...I...Dragons...What?" She seems utterly confused, as though trying to reconcile personal experience and what people have told her.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
"Alright, Mach," Darius calls out, smiling, "get above him, and show him what we've learned from the Unown. Unleash your Hidden Power and take that Bellsprout down!" The Yanma responds by darting forward, an aura of pale green power buzzing around it briefly before compressing down into the Yanma's eyes. Those same eyes flash briefly, before launching the energy down as a bolt of pale green power at the hiding Bellsprout.

"Exactly. That's exactly the thought process that keeps happening to everyone else staring at your team. So...where'd you get them?"
She leans back a bit further, enjoying the look on your face.
"I would advise being thorough, by the way."
Genis
"Well, we have four people. Kids named Zachary, Tony, and Doug. Seem alright, but we have a few other regions of the museum to cover."
Li
The oddish gives a cry of pain, before trying to absorb some of that tasty energy from Sheeva.

The bellsprout is battered about, wobbling on its tendrils even as you saw it try to shoot off powder, slowly falling over. With a curse, the kid recalls it before sending out a carnivine.
"CARNIIIII!"
Flying at Mach, it tries to take a bite!

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alexandria blinks, frowns as she thinks for a couple of seconds, then says, "Um...Well...Mostly like how people meet pokemon. I run into them in the wild and catch them. Not anything really unusual...Though I did find Errol's egg in Meteorite Falls when I set out." She reaches for the baby Bagon's ball then frowns as her hand brushes empty air and sighs sadly, saying, "I'd show them to you, but you took them all, didn't you."

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Darius frowns slightly as he sees Mach flinch from the attack, but calls out, "Get some distance, and keep firing, Mach!" The Yanma hovers in place, stunned by the sudden attack when it thought it was safely out of range.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons

You reach for your pokeball, only to remember as your hand grasps where it should be that your team was currently confiscated to ensure that you didn't try something, like escape. But the Jenny looks to her porygon, go gives a strange ping, and she nods.
"Alright, so let's just assume I believe you, that you are basically the luckiest trainer in the world. You realize that you technically assaulted a group of kids, right? Explain why you thought using any form of attack on them would be okay."
Darius
The Carnivine bites at him again, hoping to keep up a flinch chain.

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Darius smiles to himself as he sees Mach shake off the blow. "Hit him with Hidden Power, then get some distance!" The Yanma hovers in place for a moment, the aura of green energy surging around it and into its eyes again before being launched at the Carnivine as the bug-type darts away.

At last, the oddish goes down, barreling head over heels to the kid's arms, unconscious. Giving the little bulb a pat and recalling it, she lets out another mon, an ivysaur that aims it's flower at Foo before shooting off a small seed.
[roll0]-Leech seed, 4+speed, drains 1/10 hp from target at start of their round.

The carnivine bobs under the emission, following Mach. You think him safe until it lashes out with a vine at him, the appendage extending as it seeks to swat your yanma. Right, they had reach...

Genis
The guard pauses at that.
"Who?"
Meanwhile, his geodude grabs a remote, and rewinds a bit on one camera, before pointing, showing the scene that played out earlier when the portly head guard turns to look at the cameras, then fast forwards to the arrival of an officer, then to a camera where you can watch them interviewing, the girl looking like she just realized something.
"Eh...I mean, she could get arrested, ya know?"
Alexandria
The Jenny sighs, tapping the table.
"Look. You seem like the well meaning sort, but I could book you for antagonizing a group and assault, technically. I know you meant well, but if you want to get out of this not in handcuffs and a cell for a few days minimum, you need to agree to a few things."

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Alexandria frowns and says, "Oh? Like what, precisely?"
-
Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
"First off: Stop walking around with rarities hanging out everywhere, at least in my city. Someone with more brawn than brains and greed would likely try to take them off you, or any number of opportunists, and to be frank we get enough work, I don't want to add a mugging or worse to the list. Second, likely a slap on the wrist, some community service, to keep the people whose kids you put to sleep from getting too vocal. You're a kid who made a bad call, a small break for that should be allowable. Unless, of course, you object?"
At the last one, her hand begins heading towards her cuffs as if to emphasize your choices.

Alex sighs, frowns, and says, "Fine. I'll do what I can. As for community service, what did you have in mind?"

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
"Well I'm just saying how many people do you see walking around with dragons?"

Re: PTU Ambitions and Glory: Dungeons and Dragons
Darius frowns slightly as the Carnivine lashes out with a whip, though Mach darts to the side as the attack strikes where he was. "Hit him with Sonicboom, then get yourself some more distance!" The Yanma's wings flap even faster in response for a moment, displacing the air in front of it forcefully enough to send a powerful wave of sound at the grass type. It then darts away towards one of the far walls, trying to keep out of range of the grass type's vines.

"Let's start here, then."
Standing up and pocketing the phone with the porygon, she signals for you to do the same, manetric padding by you. At the door she tells the guard to get your pokemon and bring them, and you have them returned before you head down to the guard station.
Genis
"Yeah, and? What if she stole'em? I mean, look at-"
Around now, Jenny and Alexandria come into the room.
"Still looking for volunteers for the night watch, Frank?"
The guard pauses, before giving a harumph.
"Yeah, Officer. Verdict on her?"
"She's clean. Just the luckiest kid who made a dumb choice. So to make up for it, she's doing some volunteer work for you."
With a nod, Frank looks to Alexandria.
"You onboard with that?"
Darius
The Carnivine tries to follow after that, but is far too slow.

As the seed saps more energy from Foo, the ivysaur shoots foul looking powder at Foo, trying to poison him before running off.
