"It seems this is the place," Rey said, glancing at the mission map and then at the spot where they were standing.
As an experienced player, he easily navigated the mountain and had the skills to lead the others.
"We've been climbing this mountain for ages because of you. If you're right, I'll shake your hand for being a good bro, but if you're wrong, get ready to eat my shit," Lukas grumbled, sticking out his tongue in exhaustion.
"I'm just following the mission's directions! If you think you can do better, read the map yourself!"
"Enough with the chatter; are we here or not?" Lily cut in, silencing the two of them.
"It looks like it…"
"Then let's get on with it."
"Hold on, is everyone ready with their gear?" Rey asked, looking at the players, who all grinned and pulled out their guns.
To be honest, when they first saw the guns, they were surprised, only to find out they were fake, with plastic bullets. Given their lack of funds, this wasn't too shocking.
However, the guns were still effective for intimidation—good enough for what they needed.
"Alright, let's place these wooden crates here, and then we'll move out."
"Why?" Billy asked Rey, confused.
"You'll find out soon enough."

The fat man was in high spirits, laughing like a pig.
He couldn't believe his luck—three girls in one day! And they were all stunning, just his type!
He walked into the room, gazing at the three girls who were bound and gagged.
All three glared at him with defiant eyes.
Don't look at me like that; it just makes me enjoy this more (eww).
The orange-haired girl looked like a tomboy, even wearing a swimsuit underneath her clothes.
She seemed vaguely familiar, like he'd seen her somewhere before, but it didn't matter. She was in his hands now.
The brownish-gray-haired girl was breathtaking, with so much potential. He could hardly wait.
And the mature woman… she was absolutely perfect, with an incredible figure.
She was the ultimate "mommy." How lucky for him to have found her in that taxi, and how unfortunate for her to have been caught by him.
What? Age? Younger than me?
Pfft, since when does age matter? A girl is a girl.
He began taking off his shirt, causing the girls to be terrified and furious.
However, just as he removed his shirt, a massive explosion echoed across the mountain.
Everything around him shook violently, almost knocking him off his feet.
"W-What the hell?!" The fat guy struggled to maintain his balance, wondering what on earth was happening.
"Captain! This is bad!" A subordinate rushed up to the fat guy.
"Spit it out!"
"Someone used a bomb to blow up the detention area!"
"What?! Another organization?! We've clearly dominated both Kanto and Johto, there's no way another organization could emerge!"
Could it be... an organization from another region?! How bold! Daring to underestimate Team Rocket like this!
The fat guy quickly put his clothes back on, grabbed a Pokéball, and rushed outside, leaving the three confused girls behind.

They... really did something I didn't expect...
Red looked at the players who had just caused a massive explosion, destroying everything, including the cells, which left Brock, Red, and the young girl Hilda nearly deafened. Luckily, no one was hurt (plot armor go brrr).
"Hey, look! It's an NPC!"
"That demon was captured?! I thought he was unbeatable??"
"Why is Sugar Daddy captured?!"
What on earth are they talking about...
No, now's not the time to get distracted.
Red stood up while Brock and Hilda were still in shock.
"…"
"Huh? What is this NPC even saying?"
"Who knows, maybe he's thanking us?"
"Hehe, he should be grateful, I just saved him," Lukas chuckled like a monkey.
Red saw that they didn't understand anything and were even thinking like that, so he had no choice but to punch Lukas in the head.
"OUCH?! THIS NPC HIT ME?!!"
"An NPC that doesn't attack? What kind of joke is that compared to other games made by the Arceus company?"
Red quickly thought of a more convenient way to communicate, and then came up with something.
The players suddenly received a new mission.
[New Mission! Find the Pokémon of Red and the other NPCs here.
-Reward: Random ]
"Oh, it's a new mission! Let's do it."
"Yeah, let's go!"
"I'm so curious to know what the reward is!"
The players cheered, while Brock approached Red and asked,
"Hey, why do I get the feeling they think this place is just a game?"
"…"
The players quickly drew their guns, startling Red, Brock, and Hilda. They ran out of the room.
Red and Brock followed them, but Red stopped when he saw Hilda, who didn't know what to do.
He ran to her and carried her on his back.
She's still a child, so he had to help (bro, you're child too).
"GET OUT OF THE WAY, MOVE!!"
"YOU BASTARDS!! WHERE'S MY CLEFAIRY?!"
"GET LOST, OR I'LL POOP ALL OVER YOUR FACES!!"
The players spoke in a rude and arrogant tone, continuously firing their guns, even though they were only fake guns.
But they were effective in intimidating.
"WHO ARE THESE GUYS?!"
"BE CAREFUL!! THEY HAVE GUNS!"
"USE POKÉMON TO STOP THEM!"
The Team Rocket members quickly summoned Koffing.
But Koffing looked exhausted because they had been injected with a substance that forced them to evolve early.
Though they didn't know what the side effects were, they constantly felt like they were on the verge of fainting.
The ones that used Self-destruct were even worse off, barely able to stay afloat.
"WHAT IS THIS?! THESE WEAK POKÉMON CAN'T STAND A CHANCE AGAINST US!" Lukas stuck his tongue out like a villain.
"TRY ME! Koffing, use Smog!"
Obeying orders, they forced themselves to release the last of the poison gas in their bodies.
The players ran through, their faces turning purple.
The players are poisoned!
"Haha, how stupid! They ran right through the poison smoke!"
"Totally dumb! Let's see if they regret it in time!"
"...Wait, why are they still charging forward?"
"hey hey hey HEY HEY!!"
Yes, the players, despite being poisoned, kept running like bulls (except for Lily, who didn't join in with the boys).
"POISON? WHO CARES! IF DEATH IS THE ONLY THING STANDING IN THE WAY OF COMPLETING THE MISSION, THEN I'D RATHER PISS ON DEATH!"
"OH MY GOD, WHY DO I FEEL LIKE I'M FLYING?! THIS IS AMAZING!!!!"
"ẼOUWMXODWNCOWUCKWOCFJJWKOX" (???)
They've all gone mad!!!!
The players caught up, relentlessly attacking Koffing and the Team Rocket members.
Even Rey, who seemed the calmest in the group, no longer looked composed.
"FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!"
"PULL DOWN THEIR PANTS!!"
"WHAT A NICE ASS!!!"
"GET OFF ME!! GET LOST, YOU CRAZIES!!" One of the Team Rocket members was sweating profusely, almost wetting his pants.
For some reason... the Pokémon's poison made players high.
Hilda was so scared she closed her eyes, wanting to forget everything she was witnessing.
Red and Brock both winced at what was happening.
Even though the players were holding guns, in the end, they didn't use them at all...
"What's going on?!" A Team Rocket girl rushed over. ...she had just witnessed something she should not have seen.
Bob, who was punching Koffing like a boxer, suddenly turned his head 180 degrees to look at the girl.
"!!" Her skin crawled, a chill running down her spine.
Bob kicked Koffing away, then rushed at the girl.
"E-Ekans!! Bite!!"
Ekans leapt to bite his neck, but it didn't have much effect. Instead, Bob bit back, and hard, causing Ekans so much pain that it released its grip.
Lukas jumped in like Batman, punching the girl in the mouth.
"YOU BASTARD, THAT'S MY FUTURE WIFE!!" Bob was startled, then furious, as he watched Lukas strip off all his clothes like a monkey.
"AWOUUUUUUU!!! I'M A LONE WOLF!!!" Lukas jumped up, kicking Ekans.
Bob, enraged, punched Lukas in the face, but he didn't care much and kept kicking the snake.
"..."
Red... was completely speechless.
They had totally forgotten their mission and were acting like beasts...
"Lucky that I didn't join in," Lily stood aside, covering her mouth as she watched the male players acting with no apparent strategy.
She definitely wouldn't have joined this group if it weren't for Clefairy...
Red sighed in relief upon seeing the only sane player among them.
At least there was someone normal.
The players, who had been in a state of disarray, suddenly remembered their mission.
"HEY WAIT! WE HAVE TO DO THE MISSION!"
"RIGHT, FORGOT, LET'S GO FIND THE NPC'S POKEMON!!"
They started running off, forgetting to bring their guns...
So, what exactly were the guns for?
