SEVENTH DESIRE ☠ ANONYMOUS VIDEO / ACTION [VIOLET CITY]
[Today's the last day of the tournament. Guess what that means? It's time for a Team Rocket attack!
Anyone in Violet City might have noticed the flames coming from the Sprout Tower, but in case you missed it, there's a video on the network. It's from an anonymous source, through from the looks of it, it's being held by someone filming the Rocket.
The Rocket is dressed in the usual Grunt outfit, mask and hat covering any identifying features, though it's clear that he's a bit on the thin side. Standing a few feet in front of him is an Absol blasting Flamethrower and Fire Blast at the Sprout Tower's door. Flames are licking up the sides of the building already, and if the screams are an indication, some of the monks are still inside.
After a moment of merely watching, the Rocket turns to the camera and holds out a sign. Like "Seth's" sign, this one is written over so many times it's hard to tell what the handwriting would have been like originally. The writing is in big block letters and is clearly visible:]
YOU WANTED SOME EXCITEMENT, RIGHT?
((OOC: Attack is mod-approved! Ryuunosuke is currently pretending to be Seth for Reasons. Action is available for anyone within Violet City, but please note that Ryuunosuke won't be caught this time!))

Olivia-!
[The Xatu nods, tapping her beak against his shoulder before flying up and towards the tower. His plan is to have her fly in from an upper window, grab the first few people she sees inside, and Teleport them out to the Pokemon Center, then return and repeat the process. Why doesn't he have a Water-type...?
Hopefully he finds aid and not interference, but...well. We'll see how that goes.]
[action]
Anyway, Ryuunosuke doesn't particularly care too much about actually hurting anyone inside the tower (it would be nice, of course, but that's not the point of this little exercise), but he is more concerned with the interference. Man, you do-gooder types just flock to the scene of attacks, don't you?
He's not sure where the Xatu came from, but he does see her flying in through the window and gestures for Absol to aim at her. Look out, there's a Flamethrower attack coming your way!]
[action] haha he's gonna die
Ondorus' Luxio snarls and jumps forward, flinging up a Light Screen to cut the Flamethrower's momentum and give Olivia time to duck inside the Tower. This is about the point at which Ondorus realizes that his only decently-leveled fighter is the one who recently had a violent tantrum and hasn't listened to a word he's said since.
He freezes with his hand hovering over Zaidra's Pokeball, while the Luxio whirls and fires a Thunder Wave off in Absol's direction. His aim is wild and poor.]
[action] oh dear... Ondorus bb no
[action]
Ondorus comes back into motion, releasing his own Absol, who, being a Dark-type, intercepts and cancels the Psycho Cut. The Absol darts to the Luxio's side with Quick Attack and throws up a Protect, while the Luxio Roars at the Steelix.
Adrenaline doesn't treat Ondorus well. He's a methodical thinker, and being forced to react quickly has his mind in a whirl. He's researched and experimented and thought and planned and practiced, coming up with strategies, teaching his Pokemon the uses for their powers, devising combinations like these...but with an unpredictable enemy, he has to rely on his team's reflexes and levels.
And their levels are not very impressive at all. He needs to get Gunther and Theo out of danger, have them return to his side while the Steelix is stalled...]
