See, it was almost funny until the Arbok grew three heads. He wasn't about to let it ruin the festival.

Or, you know, swallow Proton like a Rattata.

He yanks a ball free of his belt and fucking fastballs it into the fray. Winnie pops free amidst the towering melee, the little bear very much overshadowed in raw size.

"Keep it from eating Proton, Winnie. Please." Gold calls, almost reluctantly. The Little Bear suckers the offending head that snapped for Proton with a Strength.

@preparefortroubles @reachtothestars get a starter that's like 5 whole hours late GADLSKFJSADKLFAJDLFKJ

It doesn't take long for Shirona to find the culprits who stole her precious Clefairies. The young Paradox Human girl has the nose of a bloodhound and twice a hound's stubbornness to boot--but with the giant, obvious dragnet full of Pokémon, she certainly doesn't need it! Should've kept them in their balls, you idiots, she thinks, as she sprints toward Jessie and James and screams--

"HEY! YOU ASSHOLES! GIVE ME BACK MY POKÉMON!"

If a 5'8" six-year-old girl saying the word "asshole" doesn't get their attention, what will?

The champion makes a disgruntled sound, one the spelt annoyance--and yet, his heart thumped with a bleeding excitement, thrilled to be up in the air. Something about fending off danger, it always drove him wild.

Red would hug the dragon from behind as gallons of water fire into their direction, patting Char on the back twice as a silent, but well-practiced signal. She looks notably frustrated herself, the lizard wanting to enjoy the festivities and do anything but this. Regardless, she inhales again, expelling flames from her maw.

Red rolls a d12 and scores a 9.

Being in the air had taken enough of her attention already, and more than that she was out of practice since retiring from the champion chair, too. The fire from her jaw does enough to evaporate just some of the water, dragon and her trainer slathered with the water that she missed.

Red groans, clearly frustrated with the outcome. Making a mental note to return to training her later, he jams a spare taiyaki in his mouth for encouragement, pulling it in half and feeding the rest to his charizard.

He pats her back again, commanding that she shoot another fire blast in the balloon's direction.

"UGH-"

Why does this guy ONLY EVER SHOW UP AT THESE MOMENTS?!

"Now we have that overgrown LIZARD after us?!"

She stomped her heel onto the basket floor and thumped a THIRD pokemon into her hand. This band of thieves wasn't going down today to THE SAME FUCKING GUY FROM YEARS AGO.

"Alright Jellicent, send that giant gecko to the GROUND!"

A gigantic jellifish manifested in the sky before the balloon, its empty expression meeting Charizard's face with a "oooohhhhh".

"Hydro pump!"

LOUD STARING.

HE IS ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING FUNNY AND QUIRKY TO YOU GUYS.

To denounce the evils of truth and love🥀 . . Here is my second entry for the #isoconselfie contest! I had a lot of fun bringing this cosplay back again. Jessie is one of my first cosplays, and one I feel like I’ll never get tired of doing. . . #isocon2020 #teamrocket #teamrocketcosplay #jessiecosplay #pokemon #pokemoncosplay #anime #animecosplay #cosplay #texascosplay #rose #preparefortrouble #blastingoffagain @isocon2020 https://www.instagram.com/p/B_oZ8kqj7wZ/?igshid=1m3pbl54o5lf0

PREPARE FOR TROUBLE! Full Jessie costume reveal!💥I don’t usually post twice in one day but it’s happening tonight! Might have a few “make it double” posting days this month b/c I have so much Halloween-centric content to share with you guys! I hope that’s okay?! 🙈👻 Couldn’t resist sharing this new cosplay pic w/you guys from @retrogamingexpo (well, technically the @marriotthotels parking lot a few blocks away!) @benjaminhinesphoto snapped it real quick while we were waiting for our Uber over to the con! 😄 I’m freshly sick with Bronchitis here but hopefully it’s not too noticeable? 😅 Sickness aside, I still had a great time in Portland this past weekend. Have you ever had to perform or do anything onstage while you were sick? How did you get through it? (For me it was all cold meds, nasal sprays and cough drops!) 🤧⠀ ⠀ I’m still sick now but it’s a little less intense! Hopefully I’ll kick this bug before the big Thumbelina Music Video release next Tuesday! Or my next shoot this weekend! Eeeeep! In the meantime, I’m excited to relive one of my fav childhood animes with this new cosplay. My dad would tape Pokemon for me every day while I was in school! (It came on tv when I was still in class. These were the dark ages, kids! 😜) I cosplayed Misty first but I think I like cosplaying Jessie even more! 👊🏼⠀ ⠀ Amazing wig by @princessofwest using @wigisfashion ❤️ Feel free to use my code “tracihines” for a free pair of lashes with your wig purchase.✌🏼⠀ ⠀ #jessiecosplay #teamrocket #teamrocketcosplay #jessie #preparefortrouble #jessiecostume #halloween #retrogamingexpo #wigisfashion #pokemon #anime #animecosplay (at Portland Retro Gaming Expo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B38vttxgx2d/?igshid=1cba65qdaqse5

It’s #throwbackthursday and I’m incredibly swamped, so here is an old and very filtered Team Rocket Grunt photo. Who else is pumped for a weekend break? Oh wait, I don’t have a break this weekend, between nonstop shows, fight choreography, a princess gig, AND costume and panel planning!

Well THAT'S new. Proton stumbles back some as the Arbok changes shape in a burst of energy; since when could Thing One and Thing Two afford mega evolution?! That was news to him. Whatever, he can't linger on it, the fate of his special interest is at hand.

" WHAT MY DEAL?! WHAT'S YOUR DEAL!? "

Three heads were better than one, but right now, there were only two between himself and Golbat. If that's all they had, then that's all they needed.

Here he was, having a shouting match from the ground up into the sky. Honestly? This was an average meeting between him and the trio.

Arbok was getting a little too close for comfort though! ! !

" I AM GOING TO BITE THE SHIT OUT OF YOUR SNAKE! ! ! IT'S GONNA GET REEAAAAAALLY QUIRKY IN HERE SOON! "

His body distorts as his voice produces static as well. Golbat, still disoriented, SCREECHES back at Arbok, because HOW DARE YOU YELL AT HIM??? He had a job to do, Proton's flailing reminds him, so he takes the Mega Arbok from the otherside, using Air Cutter in an attempt to flinch the serpent, while Proton, well--

Well the man bites the snake and latches on like a Granbull. That's not going to be fun. Get TV static'd.

"HOW ABOUT YOU TRY YOU SLASH SLINGING SKANK."

Not her proudest alliteration, but she slams a boot into the edge of the balloon basket and slaps a bracelet around her wrist, a shining rainbow stone flickering on it.

And she snaps her fingers from ages away.

"ARBOK TURN THIS CLOWN INTO A PROTON PUREE!"

There's a FLASH of catastrophic light from the wrestling snake as its tail thwapped against Golbat, and then it stopped, confused for a moment at why a former friend was chewing on him. And then there was an explosion as his body expanded and split with the UNHOLY power of MEGA EVOLUTION.

Three heads scattered from a core body in all directions snapping after Proton and missing. It SCREECHED at Golbat to disorient it, its massive coils smashing trees and detritus from the forested floor into pieces.

And the bag full of Clefairy was silhouetted beautifully in the sky.

"WE DONT EVEN WORK IN THE SAME BUSINESS ANYMORE," Jessie screamed at the top of her lungs, "WHAT IS YOUR DEAL?!"
