#ultra stakes pokereality

Hoenn's my region. I'm supposed to protect it. This is my fault.

[pkmnirlevents]

8/5/2023 Highstakes Event for the Glitch PKMN IRL timeline:

Team Enigma/Silph raid, happening once everyone at the core of the plot is ready to go. This will use the "#team enigma raid" tag and will have a planning Discord (made soon) as the characters involved will have to collaborate. 8/6/2023 Ultrastakes(?) (There's only one death planned) Event for the Glitch PKMN IRL timeline:

Team Enigma does something drastic, and several regions feel the effects all day. (Effects: Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Glitch City. Can also affect Paldea and Kalos if there's interest in that, but the first four are the main ones hit) (Characters in Glitch City must join a discord to participate in the event due to plot reasons, everyone else can participate from Rotomblr without Discord)

Remember that you do not have to participate if you don't want glitches in your setting! I encourage people participating in event 2 to use "#glitch pkmn irl" instead of "#pkmn irl" to avoid flooding the main tag. This event will also be tagged "#Team Enigma Finale" and "#glitchpocalypse <region>".

Also a note, this will be resolved by a preplanned event, don't instantly defeat the villain, and this is not a bad end timeline!

Blogs running: @team-enigma-official, @professorzzazz (the second helping run without any IC posts as the character will be unavailable)

As a note! These are the last major highstakes we have planned for this storyline at the moment, don't expect anything else this big!

You want my thoughts on it? She's coming back. People like that don't just stay gone. I dunno how, doesn't matter to me. Maybe she's got a clone locked away somewhere--maybe she's part of the plan of some cruel god--but she'll come back. In some way or another, whether any of us like it or not.

<A video file is attached! Let me provide a transcript!>

<The video is filmed in what appears to be a tropical forest. Bathed in speckles of morning light with leaves and twigs caught in their blonde and green braid, Ray silently hacks through vines and thickets with their machete, pressing forward as though a machine. Their expression is unreadable, but the power and consistency in their movements speaks to a determination that's overridden their sense.

At one point, they pause, holding up their hand.

Ray: Hold... Amy? Did you hear me? I said...

They look over their shoulder. They're alone. It seems they accidentally left Amy behind at some point. The forest is eerily quiet in their presence. Not even bugs can be heard.

Ray: ... Shit. Can't turn back now. Sorry.

They turn back ahead and step to the side, shimmying around the edge of a concealed punji pit before continuing their determined march ahead. Pulling a rock from their pocket, they toss it ahead and set off an Ursaring trap laid in their path just before passing over it. They growl at the attempts to slow them down, their next few swings betraying their indignance.

After a while, they come to a small clearing in the brush. A footpath has been carved in the ground from the predictable routine of their target, meandering and weaving through the trees. They pull a compass from their pocket, checking the direction and thinking for a moment before looking down the path to the west.

They then grab. Me. Their grip is terrifyingly strong. The sunlight casts a glare on their goggles, obscuring their eyes completely. I can still feel their glare.

Ray: Techie. Get back in my pocket.

<Bzzt!? You knew I was-!?>

Ray: I said get back in. Now.

The video abruptly ends.>

<This transcript was provided by me, Techie! I'm a Rotom, so I might make mistakes! Let me know if I did a good job! :> And may the legends save me. >

Video after break Ooc: this is a high stakes scene, it gets heavy after the break

<A video shows three people sitting under the newly budding shade of a tree in the mid afternoon sun. It’s a warm day for the time of year. They seem to be carrying some sort of takeout drinks. A Walking Wake, recognizable as Proteus, has settled down and is laying circled around all of them dozing happily. After a short moment the camera focuses on the faces of Professor Hemp, Professor Amaryllis and Piers who are chatting and enjoying themselves. However what they’re saying can’t be made out easily. Hemp reaches up and gently bushes some hair out of Bellamy’s face, before grasping his hand and gently kissing it. The man receiving these affections turns a brilliant red. Hemp throws back his head and a ringing laugh can be heard from across the park. It’s a laugh full of joy and life. He takes a deep breath and lands back, resting his head on pier’s lap before offering a hand to Amy to come lay down. He seems to be saying something as he gestures. Already Proteus is edging closer, pressing against all the humans. He puts an arm around Amy and looks up at Piers. Whatever they’re talking about still isn’t reaching the camera. Obby, an Obstagoon, wanders over from whatever he was eating (maybe trash?) and half lays down cuddled up between Piers and Proteus. Slinky, an Arbok, also out of his pokeball, Drapes himself over top of the large (and warm) Paradox Pokemon. 

Hemp leans backwards, his eyes half closed and puts his hands on the side of Piers’ face, pulling him down for a deep and loving kiss while his hand entwines with Pier’s hair and he murmurs something that can’t be made out at all, like everything else being said. Though his crystal clear laugh does once again ring out after he speaks. 

Amy idly checks his phone, scrolling. Then stops. Scrolls back up a little and can be seen to be staring. Suddenly they’re pushing themselves to their feet and talking animatedly at everyone, who seem to take heed and pull themselves up. Hemp is holding the egg case and quickly hands it off to Amy, since he’s still unsteady. 

As they prepare to leave ten people in rocket uniforms converge, pokeballs at the ready. A pair of Officers stand in the back, one with a cruel looking barbed whip and the other weidling a switchblade. The camera zooms in on the action, the person holding it shaking and breath heavy with what sounds like excitement. 

“Hand over the Egg and the Pokemon and nobody gets hurt.” the whip carrying officer says, his voice is clear and can be heard. 

Hemp stares him down. “You’re welcome to try, you fucking foul stench bastards.” He spits.  

The switchblade carrying officer stares at Amy and then shouts something that isn’t caught before charging forward.Hemp moves swiftly to pull Amy out of the way of the incoming switchblade however with his brace still out of commission he doesn’t move as he expects. The blade buries into his shoulder and crimson spills as the rocket officer grabs Hemp by the shoulder and drives the blade deep into his chest where it lodges seemingly in his heart. He stares for a moment at the officer then at his chest before crumpling to the ground, his bleeding shoulder wound the only sure sign that he wasn’t dead. His eyes barely open, he mouths something to Amy.  

Slinky moves around to guard Hemp while Amy is muttering something and pulls off his shirt, revealing a very scarred torso. However at this distance it is hard to pick up the details. Whatever it was, it had been near fatal. He presses it against the shoulder wound, head shaking back and forth while he continually mutters something. Brushing the hair out of Hemp’s slightly greying face.

There is an unholy shriek as Pottymouth, a Pumera, leaps out of her pokeball and lands on the officer who very quickly ceases moving as cacti-like spines cause crimson to cover the white uniform. She continued to trample the officer for a short time before turning towards the other rockets and flaring her flower-like wings, her spine-blade snake’s tail lashing back and forth. Her eyes, fixed on them and slowly the cactus-like feline advances growling low.

And the gathered rockets erupt into chaos. Piers is swinging what looks like a mace, Obby on his feet snarling and sending grunts flying. Pier’s is screaming in his native tongue, bearing down on the grunts. “chi bastardiaid! Ystyr geiriau: Fuck chi a marw fuck off. Mae hwn ar gyfer 

Cywarch. Arhoswch i lawr os ydych chi'n gwybod beth sy'n dda i chi! Obby! Sic em! Ewch am y gwddf!”

At this point the camera person breaks their nerve and bolts, the sound of something chasing after them is heard. Sirens are ringing in the distance>

[A VIDEO FILE IS UPLOADED TITLED- ARBITRARY EXECUTION- DE-CORRUPTION TRIAL #1

*[ The scene opens with the camera trained upon a glass window that offers a view into a steel reinforced cell. There is a young Pokemon Trainer sitting inside, who looks far too small for the dark, oppressive chamber they are contained in. They look as if they have just been tossed inside. Their grey, curly hair and grey skin makes it clear they are a resident of Glitch City, as do the shaky two tone beeps they are producing as they attempt to steady themselves. They can be no older than eleven or twelve. ]

*[ They look up into the camera, dazed and frightened as they attempt to right themselves, swaying a little unsteadily on their feet as they move closer to the glass. They seem to inspect it for a second before growing resigned and retreating. ]

"What are you going to do with me?"

*[ There is no response from anyone else in the room. While it can be surmised that Grant is there, and the sound of feverish typing can be heard from behind the camera, the silence from him is strikingly cold. As if they had already touched a nerve with him. ]

"Sir I… I just want to go home- I just wanna see my brother again- I just… I wanted to help… That's why I came here…"

*[ Their voice sounds like it is crackling with static. They look so small and scared from within such a wide and barren looking cell. This time, Grant responds. ]

"The next time you see him you will be fixed. You do not yet understand it, but this will help you."

*[ The typing resumes. Feverishly, almost frantically. As it draws on flashes of ambient corruption begin to play across the camera feed. It flickers, violently. In a few bright flashes the inside of the cell can be seen illuminated and oversaturated with color. The glass, for a moment, appears to vanish before rendering again. ]

*[ As they stands there, the fragmentation DOES clear from their body. Small ripples of static slowly knitting together and fixing themselves. But it does not stop there. From their fingertips almost immediately they begins to Unravel, their form seeming to unwind like string. Like a thread being pulled. They gasp, and rush to place a hand against the glass. It barely seems to make an impact.]

*[ A two toned beeping sound can be heard from the young trainer now as they clasp their hands to together, fighting to make the fraying stop. After a moment they gasp again, wincing in what looks like pain as the remaining solid parts of their body appear to take on a glass like appearance. There are tears in their eyes. ]

*[They are turning to Dust. Their breathing begins to slow as their body begins to look ragged. Their legs give out from under them and they collapse, unable now to support their unraveling form.

Faintly a few words can be heard from them.

"... hope ..... be okay witho t.... don't b too upset.... bout it... k?"

At the end of it, there is nothing left. Grant turns the camera to face himself. The glow of his PC illuminates his white, unreadable eyes.

"It seems that Glitch City's residents are much more corrupted than I thought. They may very well be too far gone to save." END OF VIDEO LOG]

[friendball-irl]

I need to make a

net ball.

I want to paint one with ariados colors.

[skygodtraumabond]

Feel free to read this whenever you feel like you can.

Hopefully once you're in a better place mentally. I don't want you burdening yourself with any more stress.

...

...

...

Are you good?

If so, I wish to speak my mind.

I was Vic's friend a while ago. Before everything. Back when we teased her about crushing on a kimono girl.

I know she did horrible things. I know she ruined so much. I know she hurt you.

She was still my friend. She was never Victoria Gonzap when I interacted with her. She was just Vic.

But I understand.

She was going to get what she was due eventually. Whether it was what you intended or not, I don't blame you.

I know this will weigh on you, likely forever. I likely can't say anything that will help, and for that I apologize.

So please. Don't run. Talk to your friends. They care about you. You need them as much as they need you.

Take time off Rotumblr if needed. Get therapy if needed.

Just push forward. Don't let yourself curl up and die. I don't want more pain to come out of this.

It's all I ask.

Humbly,

Green

Thank you.

She was my friend once too. Or, at least, I tried to be a friend to her. I really did. She wasn't always as cruel as she was to me. Before the Shadow Sky, before she tried to burn me alive, before she killed Nerve in front of me, before she almost killed Honey, before she...

Before all of that, she was kind.

I can see why now. She was trying to recruit me into Team Snagem so anyone trying to defeat them would have to go through me and my team. All of it was nothing more than just some facade to get me on her good side, all while she was still torturing pokemon and plotting the mass destruction of regions long before I came into the picture.

It's still hard for me to forget that she gave me a roof over my head and help finding one of my family members. Even if I've come to terms with why, the memories aren't going to go away.

I can't run away from this. Even if I tried, she's made friends with people who could track me down and kill me quicker than I could find my feet again. Besides, I can't even say I regret killing her. I regret going as overboard as I did. I didn't mean for that Bulbasaur to die. Guardian, I don't know why you guided my hand so recklessly. He didn't deserve to die. But I set out to that island with one purpose and that purpose was accomplished.

She can't hurt any more pokemon. She can't hurt any more people. She can't hurt me. She's gone.

I know I'm still going to see her in my dreams.

I'm one slip away from becoming her.

U(⁠;⁠ŏᴥ⁠ŏ⁠)U um. Marty isn't in their lab. it looks like they left in a real rush, too.
