Mew: -rises up- I hardly need anything from mortals like you; the price is to show your seriousness more than anything.
As such, yes, part of the price is not knowing the rest. Having the courage to face the unknown!
...that said, I do assure you that I will impose nothing you can't be free of in due time.
Silent looks worried, ponders for a moment. Maekrite on the other paw does not really seem concerned, and in fact struggles to regain his awareness.
"…Well, if it's a price not permanent I can't see why not... Still, I don't know if-"
Maekrite: <...I'll take it!> -- roars.
Silent turns around and pats his Pokémon.
"...Maekrite."
Maekrite -stares at Silent pleadingly: <I'm the one… going through this...>
Silent sighs, visually consults with his Pokémon for a moment, then turns to Mew.
"He's right... and I'm standing by his call. I'm hoping not to have to show how serious we are about this."
And hugs Maekrite.
Mew: Very well, then~ This won't hurt. Much. ♥
VOODNA!
-Mew twitches, and a green helix wave descends from the ceiling, washing over Maekrite's Nidoking form; he shrinks from view, being consumed by the wave...-
Mew: Annnnnnnnd
Done!
Mew does something!▾
"....Voodna?" -- fascinating-eyebrows.
Maekrite is engulfed by the wave and his form covered by a light similar to that of evolution; he stays immobile as he feels his body starts to change. His form becomes smaller, most notoriously his tail. Ichtacya and Sol are blinded by the light and shield themselves carefully, while Silent, more used to these kinds of events simply steps back a safe distance.
Maekrite's body is not wholly distinguishable within the helix but some of his features are still recognizable, such as the elbow plate being slowly absodbed back into the body and the ridge of spikes characteristic of a Nidoking's body slowly shifting back in form to that of a Nidorino's... and then even further.
"...Uh..." -- winces, thinking if to speak to Mew about this.
Maekrite's body continues to become smaller, at an accelerated pace, and his form wholly vanishes into the light.
The helixworks continue for about an entire minute before finally fading, revealing a (venom)sweating, tired, pink-ish Nidoran furball with some spots of yellowness here and there. Silent approaches and looks down at Maekrite, who flickers his ears and then raises his head, completely weirded out.
Congratulations! Your Maekrite has
de-evolved into Nidoran♂!
▾
Nidoran♂!Maekrite: <....W-what...? Why are you-?>
Ichtacya and Sol also approach and tilt their heads at him with interest.
Nidoran♂!Maekrite -raises himself to his legs with some difficulty: <...M-my voice... how...?> -- runs a paw across his ears when turns to Ichtacya, ruffles quills -- <...W-what are you looking at?>
Ichtacya: <Oooh it's just you look cute! And small!> :3
Maekrite then humphs, tries to swipe at her which he notices he is doing with his forepaw while standing... on his hind legs.
Then he runs his paws against each other, feeling his toes again as he had not a long time since; he is still in disbelief at his own stance and posture, as well as the new, old threshold of sensations for his body. Just to confirm what is running through his mind, he takes a quick look down there; not exactly pleases with what he sees, his ears instantly fall downcast.
Nidoran♂!Maekrite - in a kittyish voice: <What HAPPENED to me?> ._.
Mew: The price- I devolved him, but completely~ ♥
With time, you should be able to return to your desired state.
Silent looks amazed at the completely de-evolved Maekrite who is not completely out of the surprise yet.
"Aww, come on..." -- sighs somewhat mockingly -- "When can I actually have a Roya-ugh!" -- is scratched by Maekrite.
Maekrite: <Hush. I… I take it.>
The two of them ponder the situation in silence for a moment.
"..."
<...>
"…Now your mate is going to kill me."
Silent is on a grassfield, loafin' an' restin' from a day of offscreen work. A couple of Pokéballs can be seen, their occupants exploring around.
A ping from the Pokégear, Silent picks the device up and opens a message from Dr. Tagg.
From: Silent
To: TaggI see… hopefully it's nothing bad. Will be seeing you in a couple of days then.
PS.: Roc is in Goldenrod, has been annoyed at Shahinne's antics that now apparently involve him and a Celebi. Don't ask. Do you need him back?
Silent [sends] the message, then checks up on his pokémon.
First he checks on a certain Ekans in his group, the Pokémon is resting on the grass and can be seen to have his belly very stretched and in a round shape after having nomed... something.
"Python come on, return that ball or yarn."
The Ekans responds with a tired hiss and turns his head around, wanting to rest to digest his "prey".
Silent sighs and turns his attention to the noise of a wild battle nearby.
"Dintel, are you ready with that battle yet?"
The Sandshrew is sitting on the grass a good distance away, tilting his torso left and right looking up to the clouds. Not far from him, a group of three Seviper and a Zangoose are tearing and biting at each other in their own big ball of violence, none of them any too concerned with Dintel's presence.
Dintel♂ -turns around: <…O hai~> -- waves.
"…This is not really working."
To: Silent
From: Tagg
I probably won't be getting him back until I beat the Kalos League.
From: Silent
To: TaggWorking on the League, eh? Let me know next time you face a Gym, I'll try to go cheer you up if I'm in the voisinage.
Have you gotten an interesting X-mas gift from Mr. Renard by any chance?
To: Silent
From: Tagg
I'll try to remember.
I didn't go to the party.
-Tangent and Forte have presumably spent the day Super Training, or perhaps assembling puzzles-
Fuego: -has definitely been assembling puzzles. He's pretty good at it, though not nearly as good as DS-
Lua: -focuses on a ball, before detonating an explosive fireburst beside it- <YELLOWSTONE!>
Lua used Eruption!▾
-Tangent claps her hands as the force of the soccer balls sends another balloon flying-
Tangerine: Looking good, Lua! You fire's hotter than before, I can feel it over here!
You can have a break!
Lua: <exit(0);>
-she trots out of the training zone and hops into Tangent's arms-
Tangerine: Awwww. -she huggles as she goes to check on Forte, and may bump into a certain Nidoran-
-Celeste is currently assembling a puzzle using her ribbons; Forte is watching-
Forte: That's really cool.
Celeste: <Thanks...>
Silent is walking around being followed by Ichtacya and Pyhton, who is the first one to notice Lua on a girl's arms.
Python: <Lua.OT_id != woman.Trainer_ID ?> -- inches closer.
Silent notices Python paying attention to the woman and goes say hello while the [Nidoran♂] sprawled on top of his head huffs.
Ichtacya -notices Celeste: <…O-oh?> -- walks closer -- <Are you one of those Eeveelutions of this new type everymon was talking some time ago?>
-then she notices Forte and sniffs, blinks-
<I remember you! Are you Forte? Sol said you have ALL the Eeveelutions!> -- barks happily.
-Silent notices and then turns to the woman-
"Hey there... are you a friend of Forte?"
Celeste: <Um... new type?>
Forte: Oh, hi! -pets Ichtacya- Yeah, it's me. I got turned into a girl again.
-the other Eeveelutions around happen to notice Ichtacya-
Fireball: <Hey, Electro! It's the Leafeon with a crush on you!>
Electro: -twitches-
-Stella tilts her head-
Stella: <What?>
Marine: <She thought Electro was a boy.>
Stella: <Oh. Well, that's because she doesn't know how to act like a proper lady.>
Electro: -rolls her eyes-
Ichtacya was about to start prancing around. Was, until she heard Fireball's comment.
Ichtacya: : <Err...> -- coughs -- <ahem... that was just an accident~>
-and moves closer to Stella-
<I don't think I know you...? I'm Ichtacya and I'm working with Silent's team...> -- waves her leaf -- <the little snake over there is Python.>
Odd: <Another Eevee?>
Tangerine: -crosses her arms while putting on a mock-stern expression- Silent. I'm your boss.
...did Maekrite have kits already?
Lua: <Hi Python~ have you learned coroutines yet? >:D >
Stella: <My name is Stella, my love over there is Odd, and this is our sweet daughter, Celeste.>
Celeste: -waves a ribbon- <Hi.>
Python: <Hey Lua… I did, see?>
<import platform; print platform.python_version();>
'2.6.5'▾
<But I don't battle much so I haven't upgraded. :c>
-He slithers around Tangent(?)'s shoes trying to climb up
-to Tangent(?)-
"My boss? Who are you?" -- looks around for Tangent -- "Did I miss a stakeholder meeting or something?"
Nidoran♂!Maekrite -in a not amused tone: <…I did, actually.> -- shakes and moves a bit from Silent's hair, letting his EX-marks show. -- <And who would the woman be?>
Ichtacya meanwhile notices Odd and Marine around.
Ichtacya: <Well I am… nice to meet-... wait> -- points to Odd -- <Your voice sounds kinda familiar.>
-she turns to Electro and marine-
<How have you been anyway? Haven't heard of your trainer's group since... well, back in Holon.>
Marine: <Well, Forte got sent back into the past and then we wandered around and found this weird city.>
Leaflet: <But then they turned it into a beautiful forest.>
Marine: <Yeah, that. Anyway, then we went to this desert area and Shadow got kidnapped.>
-Shadow twitches an ear-
Marine: <But then the kidnapper gave him back because it was a mistake or something.>
Electro: <And then we found that doll that freaks him out!>
-Shadow twitches his tail-
Shadow: <Don't even talk about that thing.>
Marine: <Yeah, and then he nearly got kidnapped again, but the guy took the doll instead.>
Icicle: <And then we helped spread the word of Team Glacier!>
Marine: <Oh yeah, the airship got stolen too, but then Stella and her boyfriend stole it back.>
Stella: <It was no trouble at all.>
Fireball: <And then we flew it over here and started doing gym battles again!>
Python and Ichtacya pay a LOT of attention to the tale the Eeveelutions narrate. Python in particular looks enraptured.
Ichtacya: <Ooookay ._.> -- raises a paw -- <p-perhaps I should take notes or something. But you are okay~>
Python -- hisses to Fireball friendly: <Gym battles return EXP?>
Ichtacya: <Okay, so… when did you arrive here?> -- looks around -- <And where are the others? Trainer said there was a [meeting]...>
Tangerine: !
Wait, he's Maekrite?!
Male!Basket: -touches down- <Maekrite?!>
Tangerine: And Silent. I don't look that different as a girl.
Lua: <lua.trainer = genderbend(tangent)!>
-a short bit to the side-
Odd: -beams- <Yes! My Stella even learned how to fly the airship herself!> -he nuzzles her nose-
-Stella nuzzles Odd back-
Fireball: -to Python- <Yeah!>
Icicle: <Oh, everyone else left us behind again! It's not fair!>
Marine: <Oh yes, and there was this point where we got attacked by what looked like an Alakazam with more spoons and beard. It was weird.>
Leaflet: <And this weird pumpkin thing...>
Silent is taking the time to sent Sol out, then realizes Basket is there, blinks, looks Tangent up and down.
"Wait that's really you, Tangent?"
Nidoran♂!Maekrite -looks flustered and raises an ear: <H-hello, Basket, it's me, yes… What antics did you get Tangent into now?>
Ichtacya, meanwhile, tilts head at the mention of the weird Alakazam thing.
Ichtacya: <...What? But w-why would an Alakazam want more spoons? I've never heard anything like it.>
Sol walks in and bemusedly greets everymon, then notices Stella and Odd and is about to wave a hi but is interrupted.
Sol the Espeon -to Icicle: <Oh yeah, our co-author can feel your pain.> -- nods sagely.
Ichtacya just stares at Sol for a moment and makes a mock gesture to Icicle and Marine to just ignore her.
Sol the Espeon -to Leaflet: <Oh so a different kind of Pokémon?>
Silent makes a motion to pick the Nidoran up but Maekrite refuses and clings to Silent's head.
"Uhm… well Ms. Tangent, yeah… let's just say some things happened with a Mew you might remember and now Maekrite is a Nidoran. Again."
Nidoran♂!Maekrite: <Better than a Nidoking if you ask me.> -- claws at Silent's head.
"…Tangent what happened? Why are you here like this?"
Forte: Wait, Mew? Again?
Marine: -to Ichtacya- <Uh, don't ask me.>
Icicle: -tilts his head- <Author?>
Leaflet: -to Sol- <I guess? It did some weird thing to me that made me a ghost. I think.>
Male!Basket: <Not my fault this time! And I forgot how cute you are when you're that small~>
<um... sorry I wasn't able to make it to you earlier...>
Tangerine: Long story short, Fool's evil mindscape aspect was, to hear her talk, exiled from her mind, after which she and Basket's similarly-exiled Charizard-virus personality manifested themselves in reality and genderbent us to try and get leverage to return to their host minds.
...not sure if we or Maekrite have the weirder tale.
-to Forte- Speaking of the Mega Alakazam, I couldn;t help but note one of your team members is proving to be quite the promising wall during Super Training...
