Roderick loses his appetite at the sight of Magnezone. Where the hell did you all get Steel Types? He mutters.
Muk shifts around Shanna and sends out a glob cover in flames towards her, but completely overshoots his target. -----------------------------------------------
"It's about time yeah? Can you feel it? This is what happens when you face an elite elemental! More or less, we all raised our powers since infancy, you can't win this." Roderick takes a deep breath in the hall of poison gas. He tears off the burnt and loose pieces of his clothing and rates the team.
"You helped me 'catch' Gurner, enrolled in Paradiso soon after, then saved the world by stopping Nadar and his friends all the while conquering gyms at a fast pace..." He says mockingly.
"You're all OAFS"

Breloom and Gengar are undeterred by Roderick's words. Gengar floats to Muk and blasts him again with a Dazzling Gleam, while Breloom lets loose a wild Stone Edge towards Scolipede.

Roderick orders Scolipede to finish off Kowai, but Scolipede's fear sets in and attempts to get rid of the problem first. It was a good hit, but with the Magnezone's resistance it wasn't very impactful...
The elevator chimes, Drapion creeps out of the doors with an excited grin. He smashes the panels on both sides to keep the elevator from moving away from this floor. "Hohooo~ It looks like my cavalry has finally arrived!"

It was a good hit, on the ground Magni was at. Cheered by Joy's constant handwaving, Magni fires a cannon at Scoliopede. Joy uses After You on Magni. Magni uses Flash Cannon on Scoliopede.

Scolipede, currently turning in her fastest rotation, attempts to push the blast away from herself. Bits of it start to chip away her shell until she finally opens up. Like a bug she falls flat on her back.
Toxicroak runs to Gengar with an invasive kick.
Turning back the clock to a few minutes ago. Drapion silently sleeps in the elevator carriage. The partygoers see this and dismiss it at Roderick giving his pokemon too much to drink as well. After a good laugh, they resume their activities. Only one person, silent, careful, and always watching, witnesses Drapion awake and start to tantrum. Once the elevator doors close their worry starts to assess the situation... Moments later they hear the loud disturbance on the lower floor.
"I guess I'm taking the stairs..."
------------------------------------------------------
Yozora peeks out the stairway door as Drapion inches closer to the room. She can only see Tobias and Muk from her position.

"Ah," Tobias projects into Tully, "it seems that, as you predicted, someone has come to investigate th-" He cuts off as he sees Shanna dodge Muk's fiery attack. He raises an eyebrow before lighting up his body and directing the patterns into Muk's eyes. "I think we've had quite enough out of you."Upon hearing Tobias's warning, Tully steps back for a moment, into the line of sight of the corridor. Snorting, he calls out to Roderick (and anyone else listening nearby, "Geez, Roddy, when you said Nadar brought you to this timeline, I didn't think it was to talk us to death!" Having said his piece (and having faith Nadar would take the bait), he rushes over to Toxicroak and slashes at its side while kicking its feet in the opposite direction, trying to knock it off-balance. Tobias: Shift: Suction Cups Standard: Hypnosis on Muk (Cannot miss)
Tully: Shift: Move Standard: Feint Attack on Toxicroak Swift: Activate Dirty Fighting to use Low Blow on Toxicroak

Roderick speaks, but due to the effects of the poison your ears feel plugged up. "Nadar had nothing to do with my being here. Our beloved Boss brought me here. His stunt had created... Unfortunate events for my friends. For them I'll gladly toss you aside Tully, I've seen the future and it's you who is wrong! I need Jasmine out and Sana as far away from this continent as possible." Barely able to perceive his movement inching closer, Roderick rushes to the entrance of the room. Along the way he attacks Jace and Breloom with a blast of poison.
Tully's attack didn't hurt Toxicroak much, but he manages to knock him to one knee. Yozora pops her head out of the stairway door. Doing her best to keep out of sight for everyone.

Sana simply does not understand anything her enemies are speaking. They simply enjoy talking in riddles and ridicule everyone. There is something she cannot fathom - leaving Nexus. She is going to be a Nexus league champion! She wishes it was the poison that addled her ears. For that goal and dream not to shatter in front of her, "Everyone keep it up!"Sana uses Moment of Action on Tully and Jace and give Motivated cheer on them.

Muk remains asleep, continuing the dream left by Drapion. ------------------------
As Sana spoke to reaffirm her teammates, blood rushes out of her nose. The terrible knocking in your stomach begs you to boil over and curl into a ball. You strain your eyes to barely see the outline of figures around you. In a minute or two, poison's job will be complete. At most anyone can do are wild and unpolished swings. Excluding Gengar, Magni, and Shanna.
Yozora, still creeping behind Drapion, opens her cape allowing her Noctowl to fly out. The owl quickly zoops in front of Drapion, launching beams of hypnosis in his eyes. "Now someone tell me why you chose OUR living quarters to bust up?" She yells to the crowd. Obviously sweating from the pressure of a fight.

Jace couldn't even speak at this point. His pokemon were fighting purely based on their training. Fortunately, they fought hard. Despite his injuries Gengar unleashes a brutal Curse on the enemies still awake. Breloom fights the hardest though, dashing behind Roderick with extreme speed. He swings with wild abandon, slamming Roderick with a Drain Punch that would hopefully give him the energy to fight on. Jace uses Focused Command to order both of his pokemon, as well as rebinding Reckless Advance (He will use his Shift action on his actual initiative to move full speed towards the elevators)
Gengar uses his action to use his signature technique and Curse two opponents
Breloom Shifts around Roderick into flank and uses Drain Punch.

"Y-yozora!?" He stares at the girl in the doorway. Shoulders slumping, "But you're not supposed to be h-" Roderick notices Breloom's tail late. He attempts to block with Tully's knife but it easily breaks, slamming into Roderick. Breloom is lucky enough to hear some ribs snapping!
Drapion once again count Musharna's in his dream.

Tully fights off the blurring of his vision when he hears Yozora's question. "Better ask Fake-Roderick - he came down here to take us out." He forces his stiffening limbs to move as Tobias blasts at Toxicroak again, intercepting the tough fighter as it stumbles with a knife. He doesn't expect to hurt it, but it gives him an opening to jab at its eyes. He turns a little towards Yozora. "Careful, he's got some kinda neurotoxin gas. Don't suppose your birdy can give us some fresh air."Tobias: Standard: Psybeam on Toxicroak
Tully: Shift: Flutter Standard: Assurance on Toxicroak Swift: Activate Dirty Fighting to use Blind on Toxicroak

Toxicroak avoids the first attack from Tobias and activates his dodge ability to avoid Tully's blinding move. She scurries away and attacks Gengar with a quick backhand strike. "Yozora just let me finish up here and I'll have time to explain everything!" Roderick, still caring for his side, sprays Breloom with poison and moves closer to the entrance. "It's too late for everyone here. Once you linger in my poison you might as well give up. Even pokemon that're inside pokeballs are struck with this."Toxicroak Free Action: Dodge Ability Shift Action: Move across to Gengar Standard Action: Sucker Punch
Roderick Standard Action: Sludge Bomb Shift Action: Towards the other side

"When were you under the impression there was a time I wasn't working for Nadar? You know the usual schtick, the Boss fears Nadar, for he will bring an end to all wars. Had I not recruited you, you could have seen it. Now I don't see one reason to let you live." Roderick's provocation replays on max volume through Sana's phone. She remembers she forgot to turn off the recording mode on her phone. Sana is hoping for Yozora to do something about Roderick, in case he escapes. It's a gamble of faith in human decency on Yozora. Joy prays for a swift end to an impending doom on them and prays for Gengar's pain to alleviate. Joy uses Wish on Gengar.

Tears well up in Yozora's eyes. "Oh Roderick, how could you be so selfish?" She says under her muffling collar. "Even though all of us have are differences, I thought we were all in this together..." Yozora looks to Tully. "I'm going to Jack! Please, please hold on until then. I'll make sure ALL of you make it out. It's surprising Roderick didn't wait to attack until poison did it's thing first." She sprints as fast as she can back upstairs.
--------------------------------------------------------------- Marietta and her mother lay side by side, unresponsive but alive with Sana's medical knowledge. The poison is in it's final phase as everyone's knees buckle, but the ones holding them up were their own Pokemon close by. You all come to a consensus that this might be the final play against Roderick and Pokemon Mia.
"...Haha hahahaaaha. You have Jasmine's pokeball, don't you Jace? It was really hard to thinkthe person fighting the hardest against me has the one thing I need. I'll make the exception of ripping it from your cold grip after we take care of these steel types."

Jace wasn't really thinking at this point. He knew that Breloom would target Roderick, and he also knew that Toxicroak would be super weak to his Psychic, and that was that. Breloom uses Bullet Seed.
Jace will not command Gengar, he will just go on his initiative.

Sana predicts Roderick's next move. They will lose if Roderick is not knocked out. Feeling the increasing difficulty in speech, Ruby takes over Sana and stubbornly orders her Pokemon, wiping off the blood off her mouth. "Magni... stop poison man, Joy sap out all Jace's neurotoxin..."Magni flies forward. His antenna discharges trails of lightning. The trail of lightning has a target - it trails Roderick and zaps him. Joy, mustering her last strength, Joy runs to Jace, using her feelers to absorb all the neurotoxin from Jace. Sana hopes it'll help Jace focus his psychic attack on MIA. Still having little strength left, Sana has possibly one last action. Magni uses Thunderbolt on Roderick, Joy uses Healer on Jace.

The air between Magni and Roderick cracks. Lighting zooms to Roderick, who looks away from the inevitable.
ZAP
With her arms stretched in a protective gesture, Roderick's Toxicroak intercepts Magni's attack in the nick of time! MIA falls to her knees as she losses conscious. The curse of Gengar's aura seeps out of her into the open. Roderick continues to look down at MIA in silence.

Great, the thought manages to penetrate the haze in Tully's mind and body as Yozora's words sink in, leave us alone with Professor Poison here.Still, he manages to move. He knows that he's unlikely to hit with a straight attack, so as he runs around towards Roderick, he darts to his left side before suddenly switching to his right, knowing that Roderick will dodge straight into his strike. The hit is small and, though it's aimed at Roderick's legs, is unlikely to do much damage. Still, it distracts him long enough for Shanna, unaffected by the toxin in the air, to run around and hit him with an uppercut just as he's reeling from Tully's attack. Tully: Shift: Move Standard: Feint Attack on Roderick Swift: Activate Dirty Fighting to use Low Blow
Shanna: Shift: Move Standard: Assurance on Roderick Free: Activate Black-Out Strike - Roderick gains an injury and falls asleep/becomes drowsy. If he's under 25% Hit Points, he is instead fainted.

Roderick's eyes go white. He falls to his knees from Shanna's attack. Tully can hear him chuckling under his hidden face. One had keeps him from falling while the other remains in his pocket.
"You guys really are monsters ...I'll give you that. Now that I'm sitting down, there was a way eaiser, less painful way of doing this I believe. Though, I really wanted to see how you get out of this mess you smarty pants." He says in a sarcastic whimper. "That girl... The young gym leader. Someone came out of her bag like some damn... genie. He was the one to mess everyone up in my world and he's definitely in here too. Please... take him out!"
With that said, Roderick falls to the ground unconscious.
