Moving on from the deceptively strong Caterpie, I slowly creep into the burned tower. Bringing up a illusion onto myself I cover myself in a dark shadow while Misdreavus just phases through the wall into the tower.
'...Why can't I do that?...Now's not the time to be thinking about that!' creeping into the tower I notice the towers sturdiness despite the multiple holes in the towers exterior. Looking over the interior walls the wood is marked and clearly damaged but their's nothing truly "wrong" with them.
'Strange...' Looking further into the building gets me the expected sight of a destroyed floor giving me the view of the underground floor. Though surprisingly I can't see through the shadows even with my natural nightvision I have.
'That's even weirder...I've been able too see with almost complete darkness before..'
Speaking in hushed voice I call over Misdreavus who seems just as confused at the darkness that seems to be settled on the bottom of that floor. "Be careful, something's strange..Stay close to me."
Moving across the cracked floor I slowly make my way towards a set up ladder and attempt to climb down with minimal issues.
Reaching the bottom gets me to the totally dark floor level of the burned tower. While I can't see anything I feel something. The pulling of psychic power. The familiar feeling of attempted intrusion into my mind.
'What the FUCK!' Attempting to force whatever or whoever is trying to make their way into my head I channel as much Psychic energy into my body as possible. In response the invasive energy increases in ferocity.
While I'm in my mental battle more sounds, sights, and even smells become visible to my senses as the extreme darkness surrounding this floor lifts and multiple people in Team Rocket uniforms become visible to me.
'Where they messing with my senses!?' Attempting to clear my mind and start the Amnesia process to limit the psychic's control over myself. Though I don't get the chance as within 3 seconds I'm meet with 3 other Pokemon that have just been sent out by their Team Rocket trainers.
Thankfully the grunts start talking with each other before giving any of their Pokemon commands.
"The hell? Is it just an Eevee and a uhhh..."
"It's a Misdreavus."
"I knew that! Anyway can we catch these?"
"They didn't say anything about not catching anything on this one..I guess it's a free for all then!"
Looking to my left I see Misdreavus visibly struggling against most likely the same psychic I'm trying to fight off. 'Damn..I've got to make sure Misdreavus gets out of here..I kinda wish Caterpie was down here...'
"Well if that's the case I call dibs on the Eevee! Ekans use Bite!"
The Rocket Grunt closest to us commands the Ekans at their side and in response the coiled snake rushes towards me with their mouth open and teeth bared. 'Can't you wait a little longer!?'
Breaking my concentration, or lack their of on Amnesia allows the psychic intrusion to gain a little more traction in my mind but I avoid the Ekans attack and extend my claws out and go for a Scratch.
"Coil!"
The Rocket Grunt reacts quickly and so does the Ekans, with Ekans being able to revert into a defensive coil just in the nick of time. Backing up and observing the rest of the grunts they've slightly advanced towards me and Misdreavus with multiple shrunken Pokeballs in their hands.
'Shit..And this damn psychic won't give it up! I need to finish this quickly..' Ignoring the psychic in my mind I start using a Hone Claws while simultaneously gathering energy into my mouth for a Ember.
'A Ekans, Gloom, and a Aipom...Not as bad as it could be.'
The futherest grunt with the Gloom yells out their commands first with the other too following close behind. "Gloom use Acid!"
"Aipom! Scratch!"
"Ekans get back into there with a Wrap!"
Ignoring the throbbing in my head I focus on my body and Scratch at the striking Ekans landing a claw into the face of the snake and sending it reeling. Moving past it I charge straight towards the Aipom their tail goes to scratch at me but I duck below the swipe and use my lower angle for a bite.
Though the attack wasn't a legitimate "move" The effect is still their as the Aipom clearly wasn't expecting it and is surprised my the amount of power I can generate. Using my positioning I push the Aipom back and into the oncoming Acid launched by the Gloom.
As the attack impacts the back of the Aipom they let out a pain filled screech and I run them over and force them onto their now acid burned back. I step onto the Aipom and I crush the monkey into the ground before launching the prepared Ember at the Gloom that ends up hitting the plant right in it's front to petals.
Stomping down on the Aipom's body I use my compreessed weight to crush the monkey's chest and back into the hard ground floor of the tower.
'That's one...3 More to go...Including that fucking psychic..'
