"Yeah those are science students for you, always curious but can be insensitive, just as long as it doesn't lead them to a path that others have gone down they'll learn." Sakura nodded "But luckily it's just one class so he won't have to deal with it too long since he's more interested in the programming side of things right? Unless he has to take more like it, not familiar with bioinformatics or whatever it is really."

Quickman · **Reply #2276 on:** February 18, 2014, 07:51:54 PM

"That was his major, but he decided to pursue a PhD in genetic engineering," Quickie nodded. "He did get his associates, but after that, he changed majors, and he's also minoring in neuroengineering. While the bioinformatics helps pay the bills, he wanted to just go back and explore his roots in greater detail. Considering his major has him working in that grant project, then it's a good one."

"Considering his history, I'm actually surprised," Trak shrugged. "But, then again, Twoey is so happy despite having an even worse experience."

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2277 on:** February 18, 2014, 08:05:50 PM

"Maybe I can guest speak during one of those classes so I can talk about the Eevee species and how [tornado fang]'d up its genetic map really is." Sakura pondered "I'm more into Pokemon Behavioral science but I do have a minor in genetics, heck I can even talk about how Team Rocket tried to exploit it's evolutionary capabilities since that's not as tight lipped as some of Team Rocket's other 'projects'. It's a very interesting topic and you know my philosophy about Eevee's choice in evolution instead of the trainer's."

Quickman · **Reply #2278 on:** February 18, 2014, 08:13:15 PM

"Talk to the dean, and they may be able to get you in," Quickie shrugged. "Mewtwo has a key to the Bio Lab, and he can go there during student holidays to work. He has a holiday coming up, actually. Mid terms are over, and his class just started their new unit, but other than an intro, his professor's gonna wait until after break. It's on cloning and it'll be getting into the ethics of it, so he's glad for the break before the real heavy stuff."

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2279 on:** February 18, 2014, 08:19:28 PM

"Yeah I'll talk to him after this whole Team Flora fiasco is over." Sakura sighed "Can't exactly guarantee anything until that mess is taken care of."

Quickman · **Reply #2280 on:** February 18, 2014, 08:34:29 PM

"About that mess..." Quickie got herself a drink. "Granted, he'll be popping in for some work, but we had... stuff planned for his break. I have a scheduled day off, and we were just going to spend it hanging out. I mean, yeah, we should help out, but it does put a bit of a damper on our plans."

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2281 on:** February 18, 2014, 08:42:41 PM

"I'm really sorry but you know how these things mess up everything." Sakura sighed "I mean take Trak here, she was just here on vacation to see the entire region on the request of some old dead guy, but it turned out Wily set up the entire thing so that way he can kidnap Runaway to help with his Powder experiments."

Quickman · **Reply #2282 on:** February 18, 2014, 10:13:56 PM

Quickie cringed as she assumed that "Runaway" referred to the Alakazam. "Just with Powder experiments? Somehow, I doubt he would've stopped there. You keep your Alakazam away from that man. Just... gah, I don't even want to think of what else he could've done to it, considering that according to Mewtwo, Alakazam stem cell research is up."

"He's still out of sorts," Trak looked over at Runaway, who was eating quietly. "He doesn't play as much, he's been picking fights, and he's really quiet."

Merrick sat on the adjacent bunk, observing Jeff still spread across the bed, looking worse than what most people allergic to flowers would normally look like. He knew it was just an act to get attention, but with everything that's been going on prior to coming to Fallabor Town, it was best not to look through his dramatics and just focus on keeping him safe and well until the whole ordeal outside is taken care of.

He would wait for the Hazemat team to come to their room, but an inescapable sense of concern that they might not check the room irked him into reluctantly getting up and heading out into the lobby to observe any plans the team has for clearing out both the town and what little fluttered into the Pokemon Center.

Earl disconnected the call, and pulled out his 2 PokeBalls. The Doctor had personally given him these 2 special Pokemon, in case the spy was attacked. Earl called forth the Pokemon inside, a Mandibuzz, and a Solosis. The Solosis immediately hovered over, and glomped itself onto Earl's head, resting right onto Earl's hairline. The Mandibuzz just yawned, and stared at Earl.

"... Huh. Weird choices of Pokemon... But the Doc knows what he's doing, so..."

(Why these 2 Pokemon? They have Overcoat. And with Gen6... "Protects the Pokémon from things like sand, hail and powder."

)

Joe had finished the food that was in front of him, and via the magic of cheesy sorcery, his vision is now unimpeded.

"I CAN SEE!! ALL HAIL CHEESY SORCERY!!"

Joe called forth all of his Pokemon, including Zoroark, and invited them for some foodies... Which turned messy.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2285 on:** February 20, 2014, 04:24:55 PM

"No kidding there Quickie I don't know what he would have done if we didn't get him out the same day." Sakura sighed "Heck it seems that he wanted Runaway specifically, maybe because he belongs to a champion or he's of the many Alakazams that work for Sycamore I don't know.

In fact he seems to go out of the way to get specific Pokemon, like poor Mr. Zoroark there. He knows Extrasensory, that's not something a Zoroark learns unless they have a Nintails or Shiftry ancestor, and he even went so far to get his entire family too. A wife and 5 Zorura puppies!

And you know what he does keeps Mr. Zoroark to torture and brainwash and give the rest to [tornado fang]ing Xerosic that sick [tornado fang] from Team Flare! And you know what Xerosic did, he experimented on those poor things to make that [tornado fang]ing Expansion Suit which he forced upon a young girl and when he was caught all of them were locked in the deepest parts of the lab that even Domino and the Kalos couldn't access.

It's a good thing Taylor kept that card she found to access the lab, when she found them the puppies were starving because the mom ran out of milk. But the point is that their alive and being taken care of."

Pyro · **Reply #2286 on:** February 20, 2014, 04:54:59 PM

Just as Joe was about to gorge on a quesadilla, a black and gray blur snatched it from his hand. Pyro's Zorua, Loki, landed next to the immortal ten-year-old who chowed down on tacos both hard and soft. Mr. Spook also lolled out his giant tongue, wrapped it around the plate in front of him, and swallowed it whole.

"Gar!"

"TACO!" Pyro shouted, "Food of the great feathered Seviper god!"

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2287 on:** February 20, 2014, 05:02:56 PM

"I hope you don't mind the massive mess here." Sakura laughed nervously "Spraking of which, I never did run into that living Iceberg you were talking about in Rustboro."

Pyro · **Reply #2288 on:** February 20, 2014, 05:06:13 PM

Pyro grinned, "Awww... she's just shy."

Halfway across town, the iceberg was hiding (or attempting to) behind the Lilycove lighthouse.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2289 on:** February 20, 2014, 05:08:16 PM

"If you say so." Sakura shrugged and continued to eat more cheesy sorcery products.

Xuangzang was still gorging on tacos while Arthur went around greeting new friends.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the skies between Kalos and Hoenn

Taylor was just relaxing on the bed in the private jet provided by Devon Corp when she heard a weird banging sound. She shrugged it off as nothing but a few minutes later she heard it again... and louder... Carefully she got up and looked around, following the direction of the sound. As she got closer, words became audible...

"o... powers..."

She sincerely hoped it wasn't who she thought it was, but sure enough, a few more words became audible.

"bonding... time..."

She quickly found the source of the sounds and lo and behold, it was Mr. Bonding. "The hell are you doing here? How the hell are you here?" she asked. He shrugged nonchalantly as if it shouldn't be much of a surprise. Admittedly it wasn't; he was better at finding his way into places than a Diglett finding a new cave. She called Darunia out, who easily picked him up by his shirt collar and carried him over to the emergency exit. Taylor secured herself into a nearby seat as Darunia opened the door, causing a small vacuum effect. He effortlessly punted the creep out the door thousands of miles above the surface and then quickly closed it.

"Goro," he said plainly, his work done.

"Thanks, buddy." He grunted in happiness as Taylor threw him a delicious turkey sandwich as a reward, Darunia's favorite.
----
As Mr. Bonding plummeted earthward, he screamed in dismay. "IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BONDING TIIIIIMMMMMEEEEEE..."

(I was gonna post this earlier but MAINTENANCE)

Pyro · **Reply #2291 on:** February 20, 2014, 11:35:13 PM

(I am toying with the idea that Mr. Bonding is terrified of Pyro for some reason.)

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2292 on:** February 20, 2014, 11:40:38 PM

(That sounds nice.)

Mirby · **Reply #2293 on:** February 21, 2014, 12:27:42 AM

(so everyone's cool that I just threw him out of a plane?

)

White-Jet · **Reply #2294 on:** February 21, 2014, 12:36:31 AM

A few minutes after Merrick leaves, Jeff shoots up, sneezing. Looking lethargic, he glances around the room, seemingly becoming aware that he was no longer in Vendanturf Town.

"Wha...where are we now...?" he mutters, seeming half-conscious. Synthis stood by his bed, unsure of whether he should tell him what happened or not. Jeff quickly disregards his curiosity and clambers out of bed, "Ah, forget it.... I need to get some water.... All that sneezing and gasping has left my throat feeling dry and stingy...."

Synthis attempts to protest, but the half-conscious Magician was already out the door by the time he turned to face him. Purring in worry, the Leafeon trots out after him, hoping at least prevent him from bumping into anyone on his way to the Center's cafeteria.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2295 on:** February 21, 2014, 12:37:29 AM

(Considering he was in a volcano last time, Bonding will be fine.)

Dr. Wily II · **Reply #2296 on:** February 21, 2014, 01:12:11 AM

Joe gasped at his cheesy treat disappearing, and gasped louder at the source of the disappearance. This was the first time Joe saw Pyro, but he did read the case file... Of how Pyro destroyed Giovanni's villa with a raining Wailord...

Joe went over to the immortal boy, and extended his hand.

"Hi, my name's Joe."

Quickman · **Reply #2297 on:** February 21, 2014, 02:29:39 AM

There was a sudden commotion as Runaway grabbed the Hypnoker's ball and raised it, ready to smash it against the floor, all the while yelling at it.

Trak ran up to him and grabbed his raised wrist, taking the ball away. "What's gotten into you?"

Quickie merely raised and eyebrow, while Twoey and Mewtwo stopped conversing in order to look over at Runaway, who was pointing at the ball, and to the pendulum around his neck, screaming that the Hypnoker was evil and was sending evil energy through the pendulum.

Mewtwo was understandably confused. "Hypnoker?"

"I haven't seen it, so I don't know," Twoey shrugged.

Dr. Wily II · **Reply #2298 on:** February 21, 2014, 02:35:58 AM

Joe jumped at Runaway's reaction.

"Hypnoker... A Hypno from Berry Forest... Exposed to the Doc's Mind Powder... A menace to children everywhere!"

Quickman · **Reply #2299 on:** February 21, 2014, 02:44:40 AM

Mewtwo was still confused. He shook his head. "There must be a way to cure it..."

Trak managed to calm Runaway down and she put the Hypnoker's ball away, and took the pendulum from Runaway, stuffing it into her pocket. She led the Alakazam over to the kitchenette and got him a drink of water. "Sorry about that. Like I said, he's been out of sorts since we got him back from Wily."

Quickie nodded slowly. "Since Wily had him working with powders, is there a possibility he could've inhaled any? From what I gather, he wasn't working in proper gear. When Mewtwo works with powder, he's suited up with goggles, a mask, and gloves. They have him wearing scrubs taped around the wrists, so the stuff doesn't stick to his fur."

"I also shower before leaving," Mewtwo nodded. "Give me a moment." He stood, stepped away from the kitchen crowd, and flew upstairs, returning a moment later with a backpack. "Without proper protocol, the risk of contamination is high, particularly if you are furred."
