Floatzalcalypse! Stealthy's weird random Buizel/Floatzel RP

If you've ever trained or are in the process of training a Buizel/Floatzel, that Pokemon may participate in this RP. Literally the only requirement is that your Buizel/Floatzel be alive in the present day. There is no time/dimensional travel in this RP.

No big stylish random. Let us begin!


----


Your Pokemon went to sleep last night among its own family, friends, team and/or trainer. It was home. Happy. Comfortable. Not a care in the world.

This morning, everything changed. It woke up in a cage, crammed in with two or three others of its kind, surrounded by similarly crammed cages.

Visions flash in its mind--just brief images every few minutes or so--of its own floatation sac being forcefully cut, deflated, or even removed entirely! Right now its sac is intact (depending on the Pokemon).

In the corner, two mysterious, human-like eyes stare out of the darkness.

"I knew you would come."

Name: Tametsi (Nickname, Tammy)

Buizel or Floatzel: Floatzel

Gender: Male

Flotation Sac details: (optional) He uses is water wings as stabilizers while swimming, and he uses his Flotation Sack as an energy saver when trying to keep himself (or other poke'mon he's carrying) above the water.

Nature/Characteristic, or personality: He's a well meaning pot stirrer. He loves to annoy and tease others for the fun of it. Especially his team's leader, Taquito, the Infernape. Sometimes he goes to far though, and can make others extremely furious, leading to battles. But he is more than equipped for a good fight. He means well though. And is generally kind. Especially when you first meet him. And if he learns about you that you can't handle being teased, or annoyed, he won't annoy you. However, the more secure your friendship with him, the more he pesters you.

Other: He wears a cowboy hat. Has sense anyone's ever known him. Even as a Buizel. Only Tametsi knows where he got it, (or why it grew with him when he evolved), and that information is not readily dragged out of him.  His moveset is; Surf, Waterfall, Crunch, and Rock Smash.

Name: Thea

Buizel or Floatzel: Floatzel

Gender: Female

Floatation Sac details: Just your average one, always "inflated".

Nature/Characteristic, or personality: (Literally described in-game as "Jolly" and "Alert to sounds".) Cheerful, determined, and a little reckless or even slightly hotheaded from time to time. Tends to do whatever she can to keep her teammates' spirits up. She can act a bit quirky, but can also be serious when she has to, and generally considers herself to be good at speaking and reasoning with other Pokémon (unless she's been provoked, of course; she seems to be a bit easy to tease). She's always willing to be there for another when they need someone to talk to. Her ears are extremely sensitive, and in addition to picking up exceedingly faint noises, they can, in many cases, allow her to "dissect" and analyze sounds. She takes some pride in this ability, her great speed, her stamina, and, quirkily, her knowledge of the move Bulk Up. (Will RP out any forgotten details)

Other: She has dark blue eyes instead of black, and wears a Shell Bell around her neck as a pendant. See here for a little drawing.
Her current moveset is Bulk Up, Waterfall, Ice Punch, and Aqua Ring

Name: Skiiter

Buizel or Floatzel: Floatzel

Gender: Male

Floatation Sac details: He wears it as a ring attached to his back, rather than under his armpits, to increase his movement. He can deflate it and inflate it at will, inflating it above water, and deflating it when diving.

Nature/Characteristic, or personality: Naughty, somewhat of a clown, has very little faith in his own species. He's skeptical of everyone, especially other Floatzel, but he has a natural suave to him that can't be beat.

Other: Level 68, Waterfall, Dive, Ice Beam, Brick Break.

Skiiter woke up in his cage. The images flashed in his mind before he could even take in his environment. As he came to and looked around, he realized that he was surrounded by members of his own species. They came in all shapes and sizes. Some were carefully bred and trained, others just starting out. Some had Pokerus. Some had large heads, small paws, malformed floatation sacs....some were even shiny.

"Oh. My. Gosh." He spoke with wide eyes. He tried not to wake the other Floatzel still snoozing next to him.

When he heard the voice speak out, he jumped. The images flashed once more.

Tametsi awoke in his cage. He gasped and looked around "Sarah?! Taquito?!" He groaned as the images flashed through his mind. He rubbed his forehead. And to his astonishmeant found that he wasn't wearing his hat. "No... No no no..! Where is it!?" He looked around, and found it in the corner of his cage. It must have fallen off. Gently, he picked it up, and put it on. "where am I anyway" he squinted as the images flashed in his mind again

Thea suddenly found herself slowly being snapped out of a strange dream by the sudden sound of an unfamiliar voice. Upon slowly managing to open her eyes, she realized that something was horribly wrong, giving her an intensely unsettled feeling. For some reason or another, she found herself not in her team's base, but in a cold cage. Instead of her allies, she was surrounded by completely unfamiliar Buizel and Floatzel, with one of the latter being in the same cage as her.
After taking in her surroundings and current situation, various questions arose in Thea's mind. Firstly, how did she manage to be taken here without being awoken? I must have been in an unnaturally deep sleep or something... Or maybe tranquilized? she thought to herself. I'd have to be, considering that the process of taking me here and throwing me into this metal cage would have probably been pretty noisy... Secondly, who were her captors? Momentarily, she glanced around at the other cages. Well, it looks like, whoever these people are, they've exclusively taken Buizel and Floatzel like myself... But why? This brought her to the final, unnerving question. ... What do they have planned for us...?
Attempting to push aside her dread for now, Thea decided to speak with her "cellmate"; the Floatzel who "wore" his flotation sac in a way she'd never seen before. After all, there was a chance that he could somehow know something about their current situation. "E-excuse me," she called to get his attention, though not too loudly, pushing herself to her feet and waiting for his response to be sure that she wasn't being ignored before continuing.

"Hey kid....sorry if I woke ya.....stay quiet. We're not alone. Well....we're not alone anyway but we're not....we're....I MEAN THERE'S SOMEONE WATCHING US."


"All of you. Wake up." The voice spoke again.

When all the Floatzel and Buizel had stirred, he stepped forward rigidly. He stared blankly into space. His startlingly human eyes appeared painted onto his green bird head, and would've appeared still and fake, if not for the terrifying slow blinking motions. Yet, despite his creepy aura, he didn't appear to be totally evil.

"I am BEN the Xatu. The images all of you see in your head have been bestowed upon you by me. The danger you have seen is imminent. You must work together. I will help you escape this place, but not directly. I must see your capabilities. Then you may go home to your families."

Tametsi looked at the Xatu confused "Why did you bring us here? And why FLOATZEL?" He adjusted his hat angrily, swishing his tail.

"I did not bring you here. And as for your kind, I'll explain later. There's no time. You have to escape. She'll be here in 4.83 minutes."

"Okaay, escaping time.." He leapt a the bar and used Rock Smash. The bars bent but didn't break. He scowled "This may be more difficullt than I expected..." He started using consectutive Crunches, unsure how much damage it did each time.

"Watching us...?!" Thea responded, now in a whisper. However, hearing the voice again, her attention whipped in the direction it came from. However, it was not a human who emerged from the darkness, but a strange Pokémon. Seeing this, she carefully stepped to the front of the cage, and listened carefully as he spoke. The images...? Her eyes widened a bit as she remembered the strange, frightening dreams she was having just before waking up. So that wasn't just a nightmare...!
Returning from her moment of thought, Thea nodded in response to the Xatu's words, then turned to the other Floatzel in her cage. "OK, so, according to this guy, we hardly have any time," she started. "We'd better give it all we've got here; c'mon...!" Taking a moment to look at the bars of her cage, she decided on which of her moves could potentially be of the most use in this situation. Normally, I'd use a Waterfall over Ice Punch on a Steel-type... but this isn't a Pokémon. And we can't wait for rust, so let's try something... First, she was sure to use Bulk Up to give herself the extra strength she may need. Then, after taking a step back, she charged forward and fired a swift Ice Punch at the bars.

"Yes! Keep at it, kiddo! We gotta freeze the bars!" Skiiter proceeded to spam Ice Beam on the bars next to the ones Thea would work on.

"Right!" Thea responded, grinning as her cellmate joined in with an ice move of his own. With her usual determination, she continued to pound away at the bars with a barrage of icy fists. "Are we getting anywhere yet?!" she asked, delivering a particularly-hard punch before continuing again with a flurry of little ones.

"I think that should do it...let's slam into these things with everything we've got!"

[Skiiter used Brick Break!]

(^^^ The above may be used as a stylistic tool to show battle effects, moves, etc. :D)

The Crunches finally got to the bars he was working on. One snapped. "great" he squeezed through the bars with quite an effort (and his hat falling off, which he promptly grabbed out of the cage) He looked around. Seeing the other Floatzel and Buizel desprately trying to escape, he leaped up, and started helping a pair of Floatzel, who were trying to freeze their bars. He said in a hurried tone "Let me help you." He bit into the frozen bars with Crunch in an attempt to break them.

(Sweet. B-) )

Now feeling triumphant, Thea used Bulk Up one more time, then got into a ready stance as she took aim. "Alright; let's do this!"

[Thea used Waterfall!]

Swiftly, she scurried forward, surrounded in water, and slammed into the bars of the cage as hard as she could.

Tametsi leapt back to avoid the female Floatzel's attack. "Come on! You can do it!" he fist pumped with both arms in enthusiasm. Just a little more!

"OK!"

[Skiiter used Brick Break!]

This time the bars were broken.

"YES! OK, let's free the others!"

Other Floatzel were already working their way out of the cages with whatever was in their arsenal. Some movesets were easier to break out with than others, and some of the little Buizel needed more help.

Unfortunately, at this moment, Thea was currently in the process of launching another Waterfall, with even more heart than the last. By the time she realized that the bars had already been broken, she couldn't stop herself. "Wha-...?! Abort! Abort! AbortabortabooooOOOOORRRT!!" Her paws skidding across the floor of the cage, she ended up going careening out through the air, then crashing into the wall front-first. Then, she simply "peeled" off of the wall, fell backwards, landing headfirst on top of another poor Floatzel's cage, and, finally, tumbled down and landed face-up on the floor, spiral-eyed. "Sorryyyyy," she called back woozily, "I'll beeee riiiiiiiight with ya...!"

Tametsi was knocked over by the Floatzel coming at him. He flopped to the stoney cold ground. He regained himself momentarily, and ran over and crouched next to her. "Hey, you ok, Miss?" he waved his paw over her face

He glanced down at the Floatzel in the cage. "I'm sorry about all this..." He tried to gently pick her up and leapt off the cage and layed her on the floor. He looked at her worriedly.

Skiiter began working to freeze, brick break, and pick open the locks of the cages of some of the Floatzel and Buizel with poorer levels and moves. A human voice indistinctly began to grow louder.

"One minute left." BEN warned.

Thea quickly shook it off and looked up at the Floatzel who had come to help her. "Oh, yeah, I'm good," she responded with a smile, rolling over and getting to her feet. "Thanks for the concern, though...! Now let's get back to the great escape!"
With much speed, Thea began rushing around to various cages, particularly seeking out and assisting any young Buizel she could find. When she heard both the human voice drawing near and BEN's warning, her heart began to beat faster. "D-don't worry," she reassured the Buizel she was currently in the process of helping, "we'll make it!" With a Waterfall tackle, the frozen lock of the cage had broken, causing the door to swing open. "There! C'mon!" After briefly pausing to motion for them to escape, she moved on to whoever else needed assistance.

At last, all of them were free. "OK, go! Go go go!" Skiiter shouted, looking for the exit out of the room. He found a vent and started motioning everyone into it with his spinning tails.

"15 seconds," warned BEN, as the voice grew louder. "The future is changing. She'll know you're gone 4 seconds later than before."

Tametsi helped several other Buizel as well as any Floatzel that couldn't get out fast enough on their own. "come on... He helped as many as he could before the voices of the human became to loud, and he bolted for the vent

"All RIGHT!" Now that everybody had been freed, and was running for the vent that Skiiter had found, Thea rushed towards it herself, but was sure to pause, grin, and wave back at BEN in thanks before entering. Hearing the human voice behind her sent chills down her spine, but she simply kept running as quickly as she could.
