Yeah, that's what I'm going to try and do with my characters. Just get them out of the way for a little bit, so the story can go elsewhere. Trials are not one-and-done things, and Quickie and Mewtwo will be stuck in Vermilion for quite a long time. Hence why I'm thinking of bringing in a new character.
Well, that's kinda why I made the trial more Pokemon based. It won't simply be a matter of who has the most evidence, but also who can control the Pokemon. If evidence isn't going to solve the problem, battling will and only by this point will Quickie be able to prove she can control Mewtwo without having to resort to any torturous means that Team Rocket would no doubt be pulling to make him obey their every command.
But I guess, since I inadvertently robbed everyone of a much needed downtown, we can still hold off the trial until you find the time and means to come up with a reasonable plan for Quickie to get Mewtwo back. This just means I'm stuck getting Hierophant, at least, out of his own problems since they're still holding him for "mutilating the natural structure of Pokemon", and I have no plans of leaving him there if he's going to get lumped into the same trial as Mewtwo. Tarot Skitty, and at least the Fool Card, will most likely be left behind as evidence to prove Mewtwo was fighting someone imitating his appearance, provided someone else stops James before he makes a break for the station exit in his updated disguise.
Aww you're no fun
That's my favorite Legendary :C
Well, if Chariot's energy attack wasn't going to be enough to stop a Muk, I was going to use that Summon Ball to unleash a Raikou onto the ship to bring it down instead. Now he's kicking himself for not realizing he brought the Pokeball with him.
