Ah! Like I promised- sorta- an update! I have a stupid essay to do, so I probably won't update until Monday, but you never know :D Anyways, thanks to you guys that reviewed, as always! :D
FIC!

"I want to form an Exploration Team!"

A set of small, soft pink paws smacked against the table of the wreck room, blue-green eyes glowing with determination as the feline gazed intensely at his kin, who either ignored him or shot him annoyed or dumbfounded expressions. Azelf was sprawled over her breakfast, out cold- as she shouldn't have even moved from her bed yet, while Giratina was in a similar, out of it state. Surprisingly, Darkrai and Cresselia, who were known to be nocturnal, were actually the most awake of the entire group, and if it was from the late night coffee- raided from the Raider supply- or just playing cards wasn't exactly clear.

There came a long moment of silence from the legendaries as they seemed to -slowly- absorb exactly what the small legendary was saying, before Raikou pressed one paw against the Oran berry that was the remainder of his breakfast- much to Entei's dismay.

"Squish goes the berry."

This seemed to snap the once gods out of their stupor, because Lugia raised her long, silver-feathered neck and took on a worried expression, while Ho-oh continued to prune his feathers behind her. "Mew, don't be ridiculous. Don't you know how dangerous that kind of work is?" This was an attempt at making the cat rethink his own words, and the dragon expected him to give a bashful smile and agree. For once this wasn't the case as the legendary of children gave a curt and determined nod, paws clenching into fists.

"I know, Lugia! That's why I want to do it!" Mew clasped his paws together, tail lashing nervously as everyone's gaze was now on him. "Come on, think about it! Since our stay here we've managed to destroy half of the market place, set two buildings on fire and cause heck knows how much damage to the Guild! Add on how much we're eating, and right now we're no better than free loaders!" Mew took on a serious expression- which looked out of place on his usually naive and cheery face- before folding his arms and floating above his friends.

Everyone turned to look at Giratina out of habit, expecting her to chide him and tell him that it was a stupid idea that only an idiot would think of, but to their surprise, a thoughtful expression was slipped onto the dragon of death's face. That couldn't be a good sign. When Giratina was thoughtful, that usually meant that she was about to order them to do something they didn't want to do, or disappear into a dark place for centuries to ponder over whatever it was that was bugging her.

"You know, I never thought I would say this. I'm serious." She started, "But... Mew is right."

Darkrai, who had been taking a sip of coffee when she stated her answer, sprayed it out of his mouth in surprise, while Shaymin nearly fainted and Mewtwo desperately went over his data to see where the logic could possibly be. Uxie was doing equations in his head, frantically trying to find the exact percentage of possibility, while Jirachi continued to moodily eat his breakfast, not awake enough to care.

"Wait a second, really." Entei started, obviously trying to understand the logic that had nearly overloaded his brain. "You're telling me... that you agree?"

"Yes." The serpent replied. "That's it. For once Mew has a decent idea of what we should do. We have to contribute to helping the community somehow, and it should keep everyone busy enough to avoid causing unnecessary..." Her crimson eyes shifted to look at the ceiling. "... conflicts." Zapdos shot a glare at Moltres, who cowered.

"But even then, Giratina..." Celebi started, blue eyes concerned. The forest fairy fluttered her transparent wings and drifted closer to the dragon, paws clasped. "You said yourself that we can be killed now. Wouldn't it be risky?"

"Completely." Giratina agreed, shrugging her gray shoulders. "But it's no different than having a full out war among us, due to too much... together time." She paused, obviously thinking over her information, while Mew did cartwheels in the air with glee. "It's just a thought. We can talk over it after everyone is fully awake and Team Raider shows up." She paused, puzzled as her tattered wings shifted. "Speaking of such, where are they? Nero looked like he was in a hurry."

Mew's big eyes sparkled with excitement. "They're probably having one of their important meetings!" He clenched his paws together and his small frame shook with barely contained energy. Giratina was surprised that the feline hadn't started whizzing around the room yet. "Like saving the town or something! Oooh! I can't wait to do the same thing!" Celebi shot her counterpart a skeptical glance before floating back to her chair, arms folding as a look of contemplation crossed her face.

"You've never showed interest in this before." Jirachi started slowly, finally snapping out of his fog. He bit down into an Oran berry, navy blue eyes watching his blush-colored feline with slight curiosity. The cat had sat down at the table, and was now tossing a berry from one paw to the other. "Why now?"

"It's probably because of that story he heard last night." Darkrai replied, gaze never switching from his set of cards. "Any sevens, Cresselia?"

"No. Go fish." The lunar swan turned her ruby eyes up to look at the wish maker, face amused. Her wings whirred like a set of gears before she shifted the cards in her magenta paws. "It was a pretty interesting one. Even I had the urge to go out and kick some bad guy ass." She gave a chuckle. "But then I remembered that I can't exactly fight like I used to." Her black counterpart gave a curt nod in agreement.

"We'd have to train ourselves all over again." Lugia mumbled. "I've lost my Aeroblast, and now all I can managed is a Watergun, Ho-oh lost his Sacred Fire, and can barely manage an Ember. I'm sure the same holds true to everyone." Palkia gave a depressed sigh, wings twitching on his back as he fiddled his small claws.

"Um, yeah... I lost my Spacial Rend... all I can manage now is..." he shuddered, avoiding everyone's stares. "... Bubble."

Dialga gave a snort of laughter, steel claw going to her mouth to stifle the noise, before she spoke, voice low with sleep. "Well, I've lost my Roar of Time. It just flew away. I hardly remember how it feels to blast something into another time frame..." Her eyes sparkled. "Ah, good times, good times." Shaymin threw her white paws into the air, shrugging as her green fur rustled at the movement.

"Well, I don't remember how to do Seed Flare." Her green eyes looked puzzled. "I actually haven't tried to attack anything yet."

"Yeah, most of the people who stayed at the Do'jo did." Giratina replied. "I know as a fact that I can't use Shadow Force anymore. I haven't attempted to see what it was replaced with." She gave a deep sigh. "It's been such a long time since I've felt so incompetent." Entei scoffed, annoyed at her drab attitude.

"Come on, Giratina." The lion rolled his green-gold eyes. "So we have to train a little. So what? It'll be good for us, we've gotten lazy with our uber attacks." Raikou nodded his head, giving a hum of excitement. As the thunder tiger jumped to his paws, Suicune only rolled her eyes, preparing for one of his silly statements that made his kin question his I.Q level.

"It sounds awesome!" He barked happily, "After all of that paperwork, fighting!"

"Once again." The dragon of death continued, voice firm. "It's just a thought. Don't get too excited."

"But imagine..." Azelf mumbled, as she had finally woken up fully. She rubbed her golden eyes with her pale blue paws, face smirking vacantly. "... it does sound cool." She leaned back in her chair, paws going behind her head, gaze fixed onto the ceiling. "Beating up people, what could be cooler? All I need is my own theme song." Mew nodded his head eagerly, glad that his friend agreed.

The legendaries turned to the door as it exploded open, and Haku burst in, followed by his two teammates. "Sorry we're late!" The Gallade said, voice sheepish. "We got caught up on something." While he looked cheery, his Roserade friend did not, and she sat down at the table next to Suicune, throwing her arms onto the surface before resting her face on them. Nero followed her, taking his own seat before giving a good-natured laugh at their concerned faces.

"She's always like that in the morning." The Rhyperior replied. "Plus, we ran into some old friends-"

"Speak for yourself." Rade snapped. "I do not consider Team Charm friends." The Roserade lifted her petaled head, maroon eyes narrowed behind her leaf mask. "Why, why, why did they have to come back at the exact time we did?" She collapsed into her smooth, pale green arms again, giving a low, depressed groan. "I thought I would at least get a vacation away from them." Nero only chuckled, shrugging his orange-plated shoulders indifferently at her woe.

Meanwhile, Giratina was explaining her idea to Haku, who nodded his head thoughtfully every now and then as she stated her points. Mew was watching, breathless, hope and anxiety plastered on his pink furred face, while his kin continued to chat to each other. Azelf was -still- working on the Rubix cube, Uxie was reading, Mesprit, Celebi and Shaymin were chatting about really nothing in particular, and Zapdos continued to moodily stare out the window.

"So... that's really it." Giratina finished, while Mew let out a deep breath of air. "What do you think, Haku?"

After a moment of thought, with Mew clasping his paws so tightly together that they could have fallen off, the Gallade nodded his head. "Alright."

Mew gave a high-pitched squeal, darting forward to hug the psychic, who held out one hand for him to stop before he did something awkward. "However." He continued, while the pink feline did laps around the Wreck Room. "It's a long process, especially in your case. You'll have to take some sort of training before you head into the field. Is that well for you, Giratina?" The dragon nodded her head.

"I figured it would be as such." She looked indifferent.

"Great. Wes should be fine with it, as well." Haku paused. "There are a few things you need to settle before you can officially become a team. You'll have to split your pack into groups. That could take some thinking." The legendary of death nodded her head again, this time vacantly, before turning to look at her kin- all in which were watching her intently. The serpent hesitated, red eyes flickering over the group, before she spoke up.

"Everyone, get into groups of two, threes or fours. I did the research." She said to the Gallade, who grinned slightly. "No less than two, no more than four. Everyone will be able to do this themselves." The room exploded into chatter as shouts were thrown from being to being, and Mew nearly tackled Azelf due to his excitement.

"Azelf! Azelf!" He chanted, hugging his best friend. "Let's be teammates!"

The Being of Will gave a smirk, "Hells yeah!"

Others were less eager, and Mewtwo continued to lean against the wall, face blank of emotion. Deoxys approached him, face as nervous as it could be, before she spoke up, voice hesitant. She was one of the few legendaries that Mewtwo considered a 'friend'- meaning that he might actually talk to her without being forced to- but it was still nerve wracking to meet his cold violet gaze.

"Er, Mewtwo?"

"If you're going to ask what I think you are, then I accept." His voice was bored. "It would be less effort for me to, considering that I don't want to waste my energy on something so... pointless." Deoxys' black eyes narrowed at his robotic tone, but she was pleased anyway, glad that she hadn't been snapped at. "Now that that is done, I'm going back to contemplating how I'm going to pay Arceus back for putting me in this hell."

"Ah, yes..."

"No question about it!" Raikou barked, pulling his two counterparts close with his giant paws. "We're a team!" Suicune averted her eyes elsewhere, trying to make it seem like she didn't know the insane feline, while Entei only rolled his eyes, wondering what he had done to deserve such an idiotic counterpart. "I dub us Team Awesome!" Now both of them were wondering what they had done to deserve such an idiotic counterpart. Raikou was oblivious to their depressed glares, as he continued to grin goofily. "This is going to be epic. Maybe we'll even get our own movie!"

"It's obvious that counterparts and trios are staying close." Uxie noted, while Mesprit continued to float next to him. Jirachi and Celebi were in front of them, "So why don't we just cut the work and form a team of four?" The forest fairy, wishmaker and Being of Emotion nodded their heads in agreement, looking equally bored as the Being of Knowledge did. "We sure lack excitement, don't we..."

"For the last time, I'm forming a team with you guys." Zapdos snapped, voice moody. Articuno and Moltres shot the thunder hawk confused looks, obvious in stupor at her odd behavior. The legendary of the arctic folded and unfolded her wings, attempting to keep them from falling asleep- as they constantly did when she didn't move for long periods of time- before speaking up, red eyes cautious.

"Erm, you're always complaining about us, so why form a team?"

The gold and black bird ruffled her feathers. "Don't question my motives, Articuno."

The pale blue legendary narrowed her red eyes, while the phoenix only gave a small sigh.

"Giratina! Our beloved counterpart!"

The dragon of death twitched one eye as Dialga and Palkia came up behind her, "I know, I know..." She groaned, wishing otherwise. "Just don't make the name too stupid." The dragons of time and space gave identical grins, exchanging high fives while giving 'yays' that made them sound like four year old kids. The six-legged dragon rolled her crimson eyes, wishing that she had thought before acting so rashly. Who knew what was going to go wrong with them.

"Team Uber?"

"No... it sounds stupid..."

"Team Awesome?"

"Raikou's team already took it..."

"Damn! Er, ah, um, I dunno! You think of something, Mew!"

Said feline pressed his paws to the sides of his face, tilting his head down in deep thought. "Um... Team Pizza?" Azelf shot him a flat look. "This is harder than it looks!" While the two furred ex-legends shot random words at each other, Rade continued to stare moodily at her roses, only looking up when Haku sat down next to her.

"Legendaries have no creativity." The Gallade said softly, a small grin flickering over his pale face.

"Says you." Rade replied, "Remember how long it took for us to think of our team name?"

"And look what we got." Nero continued, smirking. "I guess we can't be too critical."

"Team Icyflamebolt?! Are you serious?!"

Zapdos gave an indignant squawk at her orange counterpart, who flinched away from her sharp beak as the thunder hawk flapped her spiky wings. Even Articuno looked a little disheveled at the dubbing of their team, but she shot her temperamental counterpart a glare to keep the conflict to a minimum. Moltres gave the electric type a desperate look, hoping to make her stop yelling at him, but her glaring red-brown eyes refused to soften to his timid expression.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" He wailed in reply, shielding himself with his flaming wings- which actually worked. "We don't have to use it! It was just a stupid thing from the top of my head!" He opened one navy eye, peeking at her timidly from under one wing. Zapdos' expression was thoughtful- or at least less deadly- as she fluffed up her jagged feathers and sat back down, turning her beak to the ceiling.

"Whatever. It doesn't even matter." She huffed. "As long as we do our best- and beat up a lot of people- it doesn't matter what our name is." Articuno blinked, surprised that her raging counterpart decided to use logic instead of violence for once, as she was so rash that she acted on instinct alone. Moltres looked stunned, as he continued to stare blankly at the gold and black avian with large blue eyes, flames flickering innocently against the ground- which surprisingly hadn't caught fire yet.

"Damn you, Raikou!" Azelf yelled from across the room, waving a fist at the thunder tiger. "Why'd you take our name, you walking battery?!" Said feline stuck out his tongue from his saber fangs and blew a raspberry in the Being of Will's direction, face beaming with smugness.

"What's that? Team Awesome can't hear you because we're too awesome!" Behind him, Suicune connected a slender paw to her face while Mew held the enraged blue spirit back from mauling the thunder legendary. Entei just connected his face to a wall, cursing Giratina for thinking of such a stupid plan, while Raikou continued to tease and make faces at Azelf.

"Yep..." Lugia started to no one in general. "This is going to end badly."

"I think we should name ourselves Team Ho-oh for obvious reasons, of course." The phoenix grinned, posing in front of his silver counterpart. "Imagine! Team Ho-oh saves the day! Beautiful."

"More like tragic." The dragon of the sea muttered in reply. "You're so arrogant and self-centered. If we're going to make this work, we have to think of a name we both agree on. And if you haven't noticed, I'm not loving this name." The rainbow avian put his vibrant wings against his sides, neck rearing to give Lugia an irritated look with red eyes. He opened his beak to speak, but the dragon stopped him again, "And it has to be something people can say without fainting from lack of oxygen. Two words max. No hyphens." She added, when she saw he was about to retort.

"Damn. Well..." The legendary of rainbows paused. "Silver? Gold. No. Hmm. How about..." He trailed off, then gave a curt nod. "Team... Radiance? Eh? Eh?" The silver serpent rolled her eyes at his eager tone, but gave a nod of approval. It couldn't be worst than whatever their kin were thinking of, considering they all had the creativity of a bowl of oatmeal. Ho-oh fluffed up his feathers, face smug. "I knew it. Pure genius. Watch, Lugia, we're going to be famous. We may even get our own brand of cereal!"

"This is stupid. The world is stupid. You're stupid. And you. And you. And most definitely you." Registeel ranted, maroon eyes flashing angrily as her counterparts plus Heatran only exchanged glances. "Seriously, this is a waste of time. I don't see the point. There is no point. A melted crayon has more of a point than this does. I don't want to be stuck working with you incompetent idiots. I'm losing I.Q just by breathing the same air as you."

"You don't even-"

"Shut up. I'm surprised you even know how to talk, Regirock. You're the most incompetent of all of them. You're so incompetent, it's a wonder that you can even function as a physical being. You're so incompetent that-"

"I get it, I get it. I'm an idiot and you hate me. You can write a book on all of my mistakes. You'd kill me if you were allowed to. You're thinking of about a dozen ways to kill me now. Alright, enough already." The rock type flashed his eyes in such a way like he was rolling them. "Seriously, once you get started to never stop. You just go on and on and on and on..."

"Hey guys!" Regice chirped up, trying to delay any brawl. "Why don't we just think of a cool name? I'm sure we can think of something fun."

"I don't even care." Registeel replied. "There's no point."

"You sound like Mewtwo." Heatran replied, rolling her red eyes. "Just get over it. It's better this than what Arceus usually makes us do. To be honest, I'm glad I don't have to sit in that mountain. It was boring." Regice nodded- meaning he just tilted his body up and down- before swinging his icy arms in the air.

"Right! So think of something."

"Stupid." His counterparts replied.

"Fine, if you guys aren't going to take it seriously, then I'll name our team." The lava legendary started. She paused, an evil smile creeping over her red and gray face before she pointed one claw in the air and then exclaimed: "I dub thee Team Flowery-Pudding-Cups!" All three of the Regis turned around so abruptly that Registeel smacked her hand into Regirock's face and Regice toppled onto his head.

"You aren't serious!" Regirock yelped. "That's the stupidest thing ever!"

"Exactly." She retorted. "So if you don't think of something, we'll be known as Team Flowery-Pudding-Cups for our entire stay here." The trio flickered their eyes, obviously trying to figure out if it was a bluff or not. "I'm not even kidding. I quite like the name." Registeel gripped her hands into fists before folding her arms.

"Fine. I say Team Domination." A shadow crossed her face. "That way we can pretend to be a nice team but in reality were saving money to build a deathray!" She gave a evil cackle, while Regirock just shot her a look that obviously questioned her sanity. He then raised one club of an arm and turned to look at Heatran and Regice.

"I'll agree with the name, not with the plan. You're obsessed!" He snapped, "Besides, we should use the money for... erm... you know... Oh, screw it, it doesn't even matter. I'll go with Team Domination? What about you, Regice?" The pale, frozen legendary gave a shift of his arms, golden eyes flickering with excitement.

"Works for me."

While the legendaries chatted with their now partners, Giratina recorded every team name, using Mesprit as a scribe since the dragon had lost her psychic abilities and using a pen manually was impossible. "I'm surprised..." She started, looking at the Being of Emotion next to her. "Counterparts that fight and 'hate' each other seem to want to be on the same team... quite puzzling." The pink and pale blue spirit shrugged her shoulders. "Ah... but these names, they suck."

The legendary of death turned her red eyes as her counterparts approached, knowing something was about to go bad by the grins on their faces. "Hey, Giratina!" Palkia started, waving one of his small claws. "Guess what? We finally thought of a name!" The serpent groaned, expecting -and receiving- the worst.

I wonder what the name is? :D And it's not Warp. I couldn't fit everyone into this chapter, so you'll see the rest of the teams Monday xP So yesh. Erm, review? When was the last time I said that? :D SU out!
