As for your query, let's just say some do and some don't. Sadly Carvanha is one of the latter.
The Lithogic River: Please reply in red.
Lil' Psycho: With the obvious scenario you are in, you realise exactly what the Sableye are planning to do with you, having witnessed it firsthand with the ex-Murkrow, the furious burning of the carcass still hissing through the cave. With the Sableye distracted by the sight of Murkrow's death, your obscene words fall on deaf ears as you look around and notice Digga', currently tied a smidgeon tight. Whispering your plan to him, he gives a nod that acknowledges it, before you communicate with your Beldum telepathically, sending the plans through the team. As you ready yourself, three of the Sableye, upon a nod from the king, turn to you as you give your orders and start to reach for your pokeballs.
Digga' may be trussed up, but his large head is still active enough for him to strike the ground at an angle, causing the ground to crack and a few large rocks to slide upwards, the sudden attack taking one Sableye by surprise and causing him to tumble into the magma as he burns up like a candle and half the Sableye turn to the Ant Pit pokemon as you take the distraction to release your Beldum, Palladium, who wastes little time in taking down the ropes binding you, just as the Sableye grab Digga' and are preparing to chuck him into the liquid rock when he glows a sudden white, familiar to you as Slice did before, which is distraction enough as your Beldum releases Slice from his bonds and you back away from the lava stream, before watching with surprise as the stress of the situation causes the Trapinch to start evolving!
With his back developing into a set of kitelike wings and his large head shrinking to a much more capable volume, the light fades as the Sableye realise they're holding something a good bit bigger as the newly evolved Vibrava gives a jovial buzz and flits over the magma, his frame easily displacing the ropes as he isn't so bulky, pulling an unfortunate Sableye towards it as the weight pulls him down and the sudden feeling of burnination forces the melting Sableye to release Digga' as all hell breaks loose.
Another flash of light reveals your Shuppet Mortimer, who gets into action by unleashing a rather ominous wind at the Sableye who are currently trying to swarm you, as Slice gives a false swipe that releases Freeze and Thunderfuzz, as you instantly recall the Weavile just as a sharp sensation is felt in your arm as you jerk back, your arm having three long cuts from one Sableye's scratch attack as the king screeches and clambers backwards onto the wall, giving a few hisses in the Sableye tongue that would come out as 'Kill them all!'
With the chaos ensuing, you release your Carvanha, Biak, only to sigh as it lands in a fishy heap as a Sableye grabs it, only to be released as a sudden blast of dragonbreath strikes the back of the Sableye, conveniently propelling the fish towards Magmortar as he bites the rope, freeing the fire pokemon who sets to work on freeing her children with assistance from Biak, lifting the pokemon and snipping them free gradually.
As you look around, you see nine Sableye, plus another eight, in two waves, as well as the king clinging to the walls as the first wave prepares to attack. Slice is the first to strike, as he charges a shadowy ball in his claws before throwing it at the Sableye, the orb bursting and knocking three of the first wave back, none into the lava however as two of the other Sableye counter with a night shade as the black bolts strike Slice in the chest as he grunts, fortunately resisting thanks in part to his steel typing. With the situation getting tense, the freed Magby start to give a helping hand as Magmortar lets loose a flamethrower at the wave, catching one Sableye dead-on and sending it stumbling backwards to the lava, only for it to grip the edge for dear life as it shakily gets back up. Digga' is next on the assault, unleashing another rock slide that scatters the Sableye and knocks the climbing ghost back as the scream indicates his failure to evade cremation.
Biak can only watch as one Sableye crawls closer, his teeth dripping with black saliva before noticing the shadowbelow him too late as he is knocked back by the sneaky efforts of Mortimer, while Thunderfuzz adds to the mayhem with a spark, shocking two Sableye near him and paralyzing one of them as the ghosts rally together, preparing to strike back as you swear the king is staring hungrily at your arm.
Of the first wave, one is paralyzed and one is slightly on the crispier side, while four of the Sableye are unharmed, while your team and the fire pokemon are free, but this is only the beginning of a fight for your life as Slice has taken a bit of a hit, and it seems to be Slice, Thunderfuzz, Palladium, Biak, Mortimer, Magmortar and the Magby against a small army of deranged goblin things intent on reducing you to ash.
What will you do?
