Judo POV

"So we just gotta restrain him, right?" I asked, getting a nod from Shine as Frost climbed out of the building.

"I'm guessing whatever happened to the wild Pokémon around here happened to Frost too, yeah?" Another nod, as Frost hopped off the small mound of bricks and crouched down.

"He's coming." Sylvee said before she and Shine moved around to Frost's side while I moved in closer. Shine hit him with Psybeam, drawing his attention, allowing me and Sylvee to close the distance. We hit him with Low Sweep and Double Kick, doing a ton of damage, but he quickly shook it off and used Icy Wind, giving each of us a bit of frostbite and slowing us down. Sylvee shot him with an Ice Beam, freezing him to the ground, but it didn't hold for long as he quickly broke out. Sylvee was hit with an Iron Tail before Frost came at me next. I had to block his Rock Smash and trip him with Low Sweep, which lead to Shine hitting him with a Dazzling Gleam. Frost jumped up and fired Focus Blasts at us, which me and Shine dodged. Sylvee used Protect, making the Focus Blast ricochet back at him, to which he fell through the air and back down to the ground. I sprang back into action and jumped at him with a Bullet Punch, but I wasn't able to react in time when Frost jabbed his hand forward with a huge Shadow Ball, resulting in a small explosion and both of us being flung backwards. I was caught by Shine as Sylvee rushed forward to blast him with Water Guns.

"Thanks. So, how are we going to restrain him?" I asked. Shine closed her eyes and spoke.

"I do have an idea, but it may be hard to pull off, considering that Frost has already been frozen once, so he would probably try avoiding it." She finished as Sylvee flew back over to us.

"Do I need to freeze him?" She asked while staring down Frost.

"Yes, but I don't think he will sit still and allow you to do it." She answered.

"So we'll have to bait him into it, I can do that no problem." I stated as I stood and ran up to Frost, who met me half way, and we began exchanging blows. I ducked under a Crush Claw and Mach Punched him in the stomach, doing extra damage thanks to Shine's Helping Hand. Frost staggered back and I quickly hopped over him and hit him in the back of the head with High Jump Kick.

"You can go ahead now!" I yelled as Frost slowly got up.

"Stay back please!" Sylvee shouted back before she used Blizzard, trapping Frost in the small snowstorm. Once it died down, he was immobilized, but the ice was already cracking.

"He's about to break out!" I yelled at the other two.

"No he won't." Shine announced as she used Hypnosis, putting Frost to sleep. I sighed and sat down.

"That really took a lot out of me..." I muttered to myself. Sylvee walked towards the sleeping Frost.

"It doesn't look like they found Spec..." She said quietly, though both me and Shine heard it.

"Hey, I'm sure he's fine." Shine comforted her as I scratched my head. I was never good at that stuff anyway.

"Uh, so what do we-" I was interrupted by a loud bang, startling the three of us.

"What was that?!" Sylvee yelled while frantically looking around. Shine's eyes widened and she pointed ahead, towards the warehouses. We looked to where she was pointing and saw a Beartic flying through the air, landing a few metres from us a second later. I went to check on it, seeing its wide, glowing red eyes. It was dead.

"It's one of these wild Pokémon, it's dead. Where did it..?" I trailed off, soon getting an answer from Shine.

"It came from one of the warehouses, and judging by the fact that this Beartic was shot out of the building, there is most likely a fight happening there." She finished with an uneasy expression.

"Then... that must be Gallade's team! No one else can punt a big Pokémon like that like Scizor! Or maybe it was Gothitelle throwing it with Psychic..." I pondered for a bit. Neither me or Shine noticing Sylvee's expression.

"If Gallade is there, does that mean they might be trying to save Spec?" She asked while staring intently at the building. Shine looked at her.

"Sylvee, you aren't thinking-"

"Of course I am!" Sylvee cut her off and raced to the warehouse the Beartic flew out of.

"Hey, you could be seriously hurt!" I yelled, but it change a thing as she kept running.

"Judo, I'll help her, seeing as she won't come back until Spec is safe. You can take Frost to Marshadow and the others." Shine said, beginning to run after her.

"I... a-alright..."

Scizor POV

Punting that Beartic felt great, too bad there's only the Haxorus left. I still can't believe that Goodra died to only two X-Scissors. I could see Darkrai looking pretty pissed.

"What's wrong Darkrai? Thinking of how badly you fucked up?" I asked loudly, making him even more angry.

"Bring him here." He said with anger practically flowing from his mouth. Heatmor moved back, grabbed something, and held it up next to Darkrai. It was the Phantump kid we were here for in the first place! How did I forget?!

"How about this? You will stand down and allow yourself to be killed, or I will rip this child's head from his shoulders. So, which is it?" He asked, his voice dripping with venom. My body tensed up.

"Dammit..." I muttered, the Haxorus, barely keeping itself up with blood dripping from its mouth, slowly waddled over to me.

"Now be a good boy and d-" He paused as a sound reverberated throughout the warehouse, as if two Pokémon landed on the roof.

"Impossible, there's no one else who knows we're here, and the other two rescuers are still busy." He dismissed it, but only a second later did a part of the ceiling fall to the ground as two of those kids spotted their friend. The Shiny Kirlia grabbed the Phantump with Psychic and pulled him towards them, then Darkrai and his goons were hit by the biggest Waterfall I've ever seen a Pokémon make. Though it looks like the Vaporeon didn't account for the enclosed space as the water quickly flooded the place.

"Tch!" I jumped and grabbed onto the hole in the ceiling, pulling myself out as the kids hopped out as well.

"You two were- never mind, you both saved my ass." I said while they looked over the Phantump.

"You're welcome, but I think we should get off of this building, seeing as it may-" The Shiny Kirlia was cut off as the warehouse shook and began collapsing.

"Oh shit."
