((Sounds good to me))
Big Stadium: Exterior, South Exit
"I've got a plan too, Henrietta. It's called BULLET SEED!"
Chen Zhen opened his mouth and spit out a massive stream of seeds at Celt like a machine gun. The Pansage floated upwards as he did so, changing the angle of fire for each seed. It was an aerial to ground assault.
Celt rolled his eyes at Henrietta's idea of planning. "I'm right here, you know. Quillan!"
The Sandslash abruptly became alert, and sprang up into the air. He curled into a ball and the spikes on his back stood up. Quillan started spinning around, imitating the buzzsaw yo-yo's his trainer used.
The curled up Sandslash sliced right through Socant's webbing with spines powered by Metal Claw, shredding it up before he landed back to himself on the ground. Spike still flew at the door, and was put into Celt's spin range.
With one hand, Celt backhanded at the air. Spike's Drill Run would became compromised as Celt changed the direction of his spin. His trajectory was shifted, and now he flew right at Robby instead.
With his free hand, he made a flicking gesture at the incoming seeds. They each spun around, keeping their momentum as they were redirected back at Salieri, Henrietta and Takamaru.
Celt started laughing, finding their attempts to fight amusing while Salieri shifted her legs back, preparing to deal with the incoming return fire. No mistake about it, he's got Aura too. The wheels, the yo-yo's, attacks. He's spinning them all.
"Alright Henrietta, let's, uh, hear Plan B," she said as they were about to be covered by a Bullet Seed assault.

Socant moved behind them quickly, keeping out of range of Celt. Rather, what could be the determined range. Henrietta had taken note of it - Spike had to be dropped before he was spun. She felt that could be handled, and if it couldn't she had to adapt.
"Salieri, you and I are on the attack force." The bullet speeds came and Henrietta released Darumi, albeit not too closely, to created a burst of flames to deal with them, burning them at worst into useless humps, at best, incinerating them entirely.
Henrietta spoke quicky, and then she was moving, jumping over Darumi to gain some air.
Socant had tried, in this time, to attach a string to each of their backs. Takamaru, Henrietta and Salieri were being controlled now, they could be puppeteered by Socant now, to be pulled from spinning danger.
Three exits, if anyone else comes we're going to die.
"One for defense, one for offense!" she called. Hopefully the message would get across.
Defend the strings, defeat Sand Slash with an offensive Pokemon, and their two best physical fighters were gonna take Celt down, anything else and they were putting too much into it.
Henrietta landed into full sprint, charging toward Celt. She knew he was going to attack, now it was all about how he planned to.

Two buttons were pressed in that moment, a bird flying free from one, and fleeing the scene, or so it appeared. And in the next moment, Roast would fly at Socant, aiming to lift the bug up, senses honed, more or less, enough to know to protect it. After all, only one person there seemed to really have dangerous weapons. And she recognized this pokemon, vaguely. From there, she'd take the bug-type's orders on how to move, while keeping it safe from... Whateverwasdownthere...
Fried appeared as well, foot moving to kick at the spinning Spike with double kick, aiming to deliver ten swift kicks to divert the path from himself and Robby.
And considering how fast they were, Robby wouldn't expect Celt to be able to rotate. But he also didn't sit there and wait, and started his own movement towards the guy, this time to divert the attention a bit from the two actual fighters.
Cause, y'know. He didn't actually wanna be cut.

Salieri ducked and darted to the side, avoiding most of the Bullet Seeds. The one she couldn't dodge were deflected by the snap of a Vine Whip, courtesy of Chen Zhen. "Right," she called back to Henrietta as she sprinted towards Celt as well, flanking the other girl. "I call offense!"
The Battle Girl could feel the sticky end of the String Shot attach to the back of her vest. A little gross, but that wasn't a concern right now. Chen Zhen hovered behind her, waiting for Quillan or Celt to make a move before springing into action. With .his type advantage, he hoped he could hold off the Sandslash
As Salieri got close, she zig zagged to Henrietta's other side and bolted at Celt while whipping her arm around, rotating her body to try and strike the Australian rebel with a backhand to the face.

The oncoming Bullet seeds that were directed at Tk where either burnt by darumi or dodged by Tk with the help of Socant. meanwhile Spike was directed at the ground off to the side, Phasing from Drill run to Dig before hitting the ground, burrowing his way underground. resurfacing at Tk's Feet mere moments later
[Between That Australian b*****d and over sized side of bacon i couldn't tell which way was Up!] he complained While Tk was at a loss at what to do. With both Henrietta and Sal Attacking Celt and Robby and Roast defending Socant, there really wasn't a job left for him to do that Fit Henrietta's call.
Instead, he came up with another bright idea. kneeling down, though not taking his eyes off the battle he whispered a command to Spike. The mole Pokemon nodded, a mischievous glint in his eye before burrowing back underground.
some time during Heniretta and Sal's attack on Celt, spike would dig a pitfall directly beneath the tiny terrorist, It would undoubtedly be at a time that was most convenient for there side. Other than that he'd wait for something to happen that required his attention. 'Maybe i should try one of the other exits?' but the thought of someone like Celt waiting at one of the other exits quickly dashed this idea.

Celt slapped a palm to his forehead, laughing to himself in disbelief. "I can't believe this." The teenage terrorist snapped his fingers. "Quillan."
His Sandslash nodded, and then burrowed underground. The way he burrowed was different than usual for his species: instead of using his claws, he used his spines while he curled into a ball that spun so quickly it ground through the earth.
Quillan would make his tunnel cross into Spike's before the Drilbur could create the pitfall, and would then begin to chase after the pokemon in his own tunnel. While following Spike's trail, his spines launched from his curled up form as a Stone Edge attack directed to whatever was straight ahead of him. In this case, it was the enemy.
Chen Zhen took note of Quillan's venture into the underground. The Pansage popped and put away his air balloon to dive towards the ground, burrowing into the dirt with his own Dig technique. It wasn't as quick as Spike or Quillan's, but Chen Zhen felt the need to give his support against the fully evolved pokemon. All he had to do was find them first...
"You're all really givin' it a go, aren't ya mates?" Celt pointed a palm at the ground before Robby's feet. It began to spin around quickly, becoming softer and softer until the dirt became a sinkhole. A normal sized person who stepped into that would get a leg stuck inside, but someone of Robby's girth would probably end up stuck in the earth from the waist down.
Salieri's backhand narrowly missed Celt's head as he hit the floor with a coindrop, transitioning seamlessly into a windmill. The breakdancing used boosted centrifugal force to increase it's speed and power. The rebel's outstretched legs became a blur as he spun wildly to smack Salieri and Henrietta with powerful kicks.
But his attack wouldn't end there. The breakdancing move would speed up as Celt changed positions into a spinning handstand, creating a small twister that burst out all around him. Anyone within the range to be caught in it's wake would be carried up and away.

Now came her gambit. She'd given the others the ability to survive, now she just needed to take this chance to deal some damage. As Henrietta jumped she'd be met with the windmill kick. One hand had grabbed the string shot on her back and she'd make to attach it to the spinning leg as it collided with her.
Attempting to take another shot she'd kick from this position, toward Celt at the center as the force of his legs threw her backward.
She couldn't tell from the pain if Celt had broken a rib yet or not, not until he sped up, hopefully faster than he could reach a speed to remove the string, Socant released a spark of electricity - enchanting the string with electricity for electroweb. Given the speed of electricity, she hoped it'd work. She'd given up her puppet defense for it, after all.
The twister blew her backward, sending her several feet away and she'd make to roll to her feet but was met with a blinding pain as she hit the ground. Yup, definitely a cracked rib.
Rising to her feet the normal way she surveyed the scene to see the end result of her maneuver.

Their attack Pokemon came for Nicole. To her they were simply non-factors caught in a battle they couldn't win. She drew her swords, one in each hand, and danced through the lunging mutts, two strikes, one decapitated, one bifurcated.
When she stopped all of the Pokemon had fallen, not just two. They shared injuries, albeit less and less severe as they split between all of the Pokemon.
"A shame, Giri." Girafarig emerged from hiding, and pulled the triggers of the guns via telekinesis - explaining the pink light.
More than a dozen shots rang out as the police men fell.
"Clear over here," Nicole announced.
Big Stadium: Concert Stage
Helena looked out at the crowd of people. The speech was about to start - surely her father and/or her brother would arrive soon. Surveying the crowd she caught sight of her mother being ushered into them from a back stage area, grumpily pushing the hands of her escort away from her before she turned and saw Helena on the stage.
Big Stadium: Crowded Area
"Helena!" Elysia pushed passed the people she could, trying to get closer. Azucena caught her wrist.
"Don't," she whispered, gesturing to the guards. "I'm not sure what they want to do with us, but I saw a lady with a sword. I don't think they're entirely friendly."
Elysia pulled her hand from the teenager and looked back at the stage.
"If we cooperate I don't think they'll hurt us."

Robby wasn't completely dumb. Oh, most people would call him dumb, but he wasn't completely. Way the soil moved, he noticed it, probably more by coincidence since he was watching his footing this time around. And being someone large as he was? Well, he knew how to watch his footing. Just usually chose not to...
And thus the obese lad would be in mid-air, flying at the windmill-kicking Australian who might also be being electrocuted if Henrietta had done right. And if not? Well, now he had Robby coming at him while his body was occupied.
And Robby plus gravity equals smashed object.
As for Fried? Um... He was pretty much left out of the underground bout, but opted to start spitting embers into the hole he'd seen the sandslash go into.

[tch, don't play me for an ameture ] the mole Pokemon mumbled, launching into Stationary rapid spine powered by Metal Claw. The maneuver would smash or divert every stone edge. Then going from Rapid Spine to Brickbreak when The sandslash was within range.
While the under ground battle commenced Tk watched the other's and Celt closely, watching for an opening in Celts attack. It became obvious that his strange power was Aura, an aura Power of Rotation. but could they stand up to it? They who had only just begone to tap into there own aura?
Big Stadium: Exterior, East Exit
"Not quite." Said yet another Police officer, this one tall and lanky, obviously injured due to the bandage on his leg. Steven's pistol clicked as he readied it. he held it pointed at the one named Nicole.
He bore a Blank expression, as to not betray his own fear of the woman. "What are you lot up too...?"
He was playing for time, cause lets be honest, if she wanted too Nicole could just as easily fell him just as easily as any of the other Officers that now lay dead around him.

Chen Zhen wiped some sweat from his brow after finally finding the tunnels that Spike and Quillan had dug. Fried's Embers had travelled underground, setting part of the tunnel on fire. With the flames behind him, Chen Zhen hurried to catch up with Quillan. The Sandslash would be trapped between him and Spike.
Quillan stopped rolling when he got close to Spike, bringing up his paw for a Crush Claw. The swiping attack knocked away the Brick Break, and the Sandslash was about to strike again when his other attacking arm became bound by vines.
[Hit him!] Chen Zhen yelled over to Spike, struggling to hold back Quillan. The Sandslash tilted his head at the vines, slightly amused. [I can't hold him long!-]
Quillan yanked at the vines, pulling Chen Zhen towards him. He curled up so Chen Zhen would pass over him, probably crashing into Spike. And once both pokemon were in front of him again, he slashed through the vines and started rolling after them once more.
Only this time, he used Gyro Ball. Although he traveled very fast because of his rotation speed, the Sandslash's actual speed stat was still relatively low, thus giving the attack more power and speed.
He became a whirling dervish of spines, chasing after the two pokemon as a big ball of death. [Go, GO!] Chen Zhen yelled, urging Spike to start digging again. In the tunnel, there was no way to avoid getting hit, and Quillan would catch them eventually. They had to get back to the surface.
Meanwhile, Salieri jumped backwards, just dodging the powerful windmill. When Henrietta grabbed onto Celt's leg, she could hear the crunching sound of a rib being broken. Either her senses had been improving with Nianzhu, or it was just that loud.
"Hey!" she growled while Celt blocked Henrietta's kick at his center with one hand during his transition to spinning handstand, throwing the girl away. Salieri was going to run at Celt, but the sudden advent of the twister prevented her from getting close.
That's when she got a new idea.
The twister was enough to blow away most people. Robby was not most people. Instead of falling on top of Celt with a body slam, he'd stay aloft momentarily, being held up by the wind only a couple of feet from the ground before crashing back down.
Salieri ran at the twister and jumped, allowing herself to get carried by the cycling winds like a ragdoll. As she spun around, she reached out to grab onto the floating Robby. "Sorry, big guy!"
Latching onto Robby's arm, she flipped herself up and jumped off of his back, using him as a midair platform to gain more height before the twister stopped. The maneuver would probably force Robby into the ground faster than gravity, where he would taste dirt. In that moment, Salieri wondered if Robby had ever tasted dirt recreationally, but decided that wasn't the case. There was no need for an iron chef to settle with such ingredients-
Focus, Sal. Focus.
Celt stopped spinning and sprang back onto his feet, laughing and clutching at his stomach again. "Priceless! What are you all, big fish in the small pond? Well I've got news for you. You mates have arrived at the ******** ocean! You're all small fries to..."
He paused and looked down at his leg. A strand of webbing had gotten wound around it. Curiously, he bent over to pluck at it.
BZZZZT!
Volts of electricity surged through Celt's body, making him holler skyward in pain as he struggled not to convulse. His Natural Infusion was centered more towards durability than anything else, but being electrocuted still hurt. As the shocks continued, he grit his teeth and yanked off the webbing, stopping the flow of energy into his body.
He stumbled backwards, panting as a little puff of smoke came from his mouth. He tried to speak but coughed instead, unaware of the shadow growing around him until he finally looked up and saw the airborne Salieri diving at him.
The heel of her axe kick crushed into his skull, pummeling his head into the ground before Salieri even landed. The impact produced a small crater as Celt lay motionless in the ground.
Salieri huffed heavily after landing. The extra height for the falling attack gave it massive power, but without Henrietta's electrocution tactic she would have been shooting in the dark. So the Battle Girl nodded at Henrietta. "Nice job with the-"
Celt's arm sprang up and grabbed onto Salieri's ankle. Before she could properly react, she was yanked up as Celt spun on his heel, gaining speed while swinging the Battle Girl around.
Finally he would let go, flinging Salieri off into the distance. The Battle Girl went flying, going over the lawn's perimeter and crashing onto the hood of a police cruiser. Painfully.
Celt let out a short laugh while he wiped some blood from his mouth as if he hadn't just been electrocuted and brutally pummeled. "Okay then. Not half bad." He started walking the dog with both of his yo-yo's, which shifted into buzzsaw mode quickly. "But still not enough."
With a grunt he spun around, sending out the yo-yo's like massive buzzsaw whips. They'd swipe wide over the battlefield repeatedly, having enough range to strike at Henrietta, Robby and Takamaru as long as Celt kept spinning around. Getting in close to the rebel would result in being forced back by the high speed winds Celt was producing. And at his current rotation speed, the yo-yo's would cycle around him many times rapidly, making the whole area a danger zone.

Big Stadium: Concert Stage
Pachi looked up from her nails, bored now, to see Helena spotting her mother across the stage. Her eyes narrowed, then suddenly darted to the side.
"No...it's for their own safety," she muttered to no one in particular. Her features softened for a second, then she nodded. "As long as they don't try to play hero." There was another pause and Pachi sat up straight, looking out at the crowd once more. She shrugged. "Because, they're ignorant. And fools liken themselves to heroes."

"Yeah."
Another cop joined Steven's side. This one had a thick handlebar moustache and thick glasses that hid his eyes. He also pointed a pistol at Nicole, though he looked a lot more impassioned than Steven. Perhaps like he was even having fun with the situation. "What he said."

the buzz saw whips came and Tk acted. There was a metallic caw as Saria was released from her poke-Ball, immidietly going air born in the same Air space that Tk and Henrietta were located. Jumping, the young trainer grabbed onto one of the Skarmory's talon'ed feet.
If Henrietta could there was another Talon'ed foot she could jump too to escape the Buzzsaw whip, if not then Tk would reach out an arm for her to latch onto before Saria continued Skyward.
As for Robby, the ground he could undoubtedly land on was compromised due to the subterranean battle that was taking place. So unless he somehow landed elsewhere he would crash through the earth, effectively evading death.
Back underground, Spike would begin tunneling upwards. However, upon reaching the surface, the mole and Grass monkey wold realize that they were only but a few feet away from Celt who was spinning haphazardly, whipping around buzz-saw whips.
[A this Range...]
Without a moments notice Spike launched from the hole, going directly into a Drill run towards Celts legs. Celt's high-speed winds might be enough to knock back surface opponents, but how bout subterranean attack's from but two feet away?

((Oh oh! I have one of those, too!))
Big Stadium: Exterior, East Exit
"That ain't gonna work," spoke a new voice. Commissioner McCoy stepped forward, plump little man he was, he had never even drawn his gun. Something about the scene he seemed to recognize. "If she wanted us dead we'd all be dead." He said against the hood of one of the front most cars, pulling a cigar from his pocket with one hand and lighting it with what looked like a prosthetic, bare boned version. Police health care sucked.
"You could say I have experience fightin' this type, but it's best to relax. We're both stallin' at the moment anyways." Cops essentially could shoot - and when that failed they couldn't do s**t. "We'll get our chance," he said as he puffed at the thing to get it fully lit, "soon as the big boys arrive."
Big Stadium: Exterior, South Exit
Takamaru's hand caused Henrietta to scream and twist away as she was pulled up by her own hand, she twisted to get herself released and fell into the flurry. Chest, face, arms as they raised to protect her. She didn't know how deep each cut was, but before a fifth one could land fire sprang up from the ground, spinning like a vortex, to push the yo-yo's up and away.
Beneath the surface
Foolishness. You pitied me, you cared, you went out of your way to endanger others to save me. Stupid girl. Don't you get it? We're not a friendly species - we just look this way. On what pretense do you wish to forge a bond? Saying we're friends? Defending me, even if it kills you?! Stupid, the whole lot of you humans are so stupid it makes my head hurt!
Melty sped through the underground, calm mind stabilizing him, his thoughts. He could think clearly, and with each one his thoughts became more clear.
So if you care, if you're putting yourself on the line for me - to protect me then fine. I get it. I wanted to get stronger, I wanted to feed and cull the weak but I can see it now. Large crowds meant little to no risk to others. You're trying to think of everyone.
He'd abandoned Azucenia instantly. But why? Because she wasn't his owner? She'd thrown him out into battle, so he could fight, right?
Stronger... That's the goal, but I'll admit it. I felt a bit thrown away, like I wasn't worth fighting for you. But you're underestimating me, human.
The underground of the stadium - quite a sight to see but Melty shifted best he could in a direct line, out of sight. That meant moving phased between passages, through the floors and walls. He couldn't risk being caught, not before he reached his goal.
So I'm worried. I can admit that now. You're charging headlong into battle, and I've seen you through those tinted lens, crawling to save us when you hardly knew us. Did you consider us pets? A means to escape your own mortality? You were just as shallow as the rest of us when it all started, you know.
The voice on the monitor, to Melty, was dulled out due to the ground. Vibrations on speakers was all he got from it. It didn't matter though, it might as well have been that normally. He didn't give a damn what that woman was saying, what their goal was. The situation was simple - get to Henrietta.
But you've changed, and I'll be damned if I can't adapt either. Scared little princess, damsel in distress, wanting to do the right thing but never quite strong enough. But even like that, you made me stronger. Like some beacon of power, people flocked to your aid, showing a great deal of strength when they did too.
And he was almost there now. Just the doors and then he'd be outside, still between the surface and the sky however. Not yet arisen - he could use that element of surprise. Lifting himself just for a second to get a handle on the situation and dropping below. He only needed that view to see it.
So if you have a goal then I'll share it too. To get stronger, and to make sure you don't die - Henrietta.
And then he used Fire Spin as he rose up, between Celt and Henrietta.
Big Stadium: Exterior, South Exit
"Mel...ty?..." Henrietta looked between her arms to see him, the fire spin would burn everything that got into contact with it, the vortex would blow the yoyos off course, placing them overhead of Henrietta as they tried to slice through her.
Hey kid,
"Darumi!" Henrietta shouted. She couldn't recall Melty - Azucena had his ball. But, if he was here, if he wanted to fight, then...
Darumi released a blast of fire at Melty, and if Celt didn't stop it it would strike, and a flash would occur.
welcome to the Inferno.
And if all went according to plan, Celt wouldn't be facing down a Litwick.
He'd be staring down a Lampent.

The sensation of being used as a platform wasn't exactly what Robby'd been searching for, but he wasn't here as some mystical amazing hero either. Actually, the obese lad couldn't honestly place why they were fighting this guy. But Henrietta had ordered him, and there was the promise of food or something in his memory.
He felt himself falling, a familiar sensation. He smashed into the ground, and felt yet another familiar thing. It broke away, breaking his fall... Underground tunnels began to collapse as the weight sent vibrations, broke the stability. This tunnel in particular.
But those wouldn't be warning for sandslash. It would be an aftershock. Before any real signs would show, Robby would crash, down through the earth. And pure coincidence, his odd luck, would have him falling at the rock type. To crush it, probably...
And if he landed on it, Robby would begin recovery quickly, moving to get up, hand swiftly moving, coincidentally once more towards the sandslash, to put his weight on it and press down so he could get up. Of course, that was only if he'd landed on it.

"NO!" Tk yelled, reaching out further, his attempt in vain. He was but a few split seconds away from jumping down after her had it not been for melty's timely arrival. With a great sigh of relief he clambered up onto Saria's back.
"Im going to check on sal!" he called down to Henrietta before having Saria glide over and land next to the police cruiser. Jumping from the flying steel Type he rushed onto the hood of the police Cruiser.
"Sal, Sal, Wake up. Ohhhh c'mon" he said panicked as he shook her shoulder in an attempt to get some sort of response from the battle girl. 'Please let her have been using her aura...' he inwardly pleaded. He knew how hard her skin could become, having punched it back in Henrietta's room, so he just hopped it would have been enough to cushion the impact.
