What: Move over Team Intimidate, there's a cooler Pokemon that needs saving.
When: Early October
Where: All over
Warnings: Will update as needed!!

Noelle has vanished while recovering at the clinic and nobody can find her! She may have run away while having a mental health crisis. Please, bring her back safely!

Mightyena doesn't know where Noelle went, just that she was still in recovery when she vanished. She thought Noelle couldn't have gone far in her condition... but if that's the case, why hasn't she been found yet?

[ QUEST START ]

After a tense day of discussion, organizing and planning, Kris and Ingo gather the volunteers at the outskirts of Bottlecap Bay. Supplies are handed out, groups are chosen, and everyone is given a quick debriefing on the plan: start close to home, then work their way further out as they narrow down her location. Some groups should hang back, ready to set out once a fresh lead is established—the pearls are perfect for this, so everyone should keep their own handy. Spreading out too wide will only make things difficult once they find her trail, so it's important that everyone stays on task.

Once everyone's roles have been assigned, it's time to set out. It's going to be a long, long day.

To be addressed this way by the Abomasnow- to be looked down on while still being attacked, it feels- it causes Emporio to take a moment to pause. To think.

To focus, in fact, as he gathers his might under Focus Energy. Realistically he doesn't know what they should have expected from her. She very clearly doesn't want to talk, and very definitely won't see any reason, but now he knows for a fact that Noelle is back there.

And Noelle, whatever the case, was at least nice to him.

Emmet will feel Emporio standing up within the mane- even adjusting himself, muttering an apology. It's not going to feel great, what he's about to do. Does he think 'all of them' were found?

Better question, he supposes. Why assume there's only four? He could answer with that, point out how multiple teams have all been coming and going with various other Pokemon, their leads being the exact reason that their own group came this far, but instead he eyes the snow below them with a shaking grimace.

He really hopes this works.

"...Do you think they weren't?" He says, and then, he throws his hand forward in a move the other two will find very familiar.

He expects something like what Abomasnow does, really. That he'll end up unleashing a 'blizzard' that can't actually hit his partners. The latter part is true- as always, Secret Power is Normal Type. But it's not a Blizzard.

An avalanche, or at least the vision of one, comes barreling forward from where the three stand. Emporio jumps, the motion and pressure from which explains the cubone's pre-emptive apology, and in the false snow he quickly vanishes.

He vanishes into the normal snow too, ice burns be damned. If they can't go through the lot, then he's going under- and he can!
