POKEMON RANGERS: GAME ON THE EDGE! (NO SV YOU are a HERO in a VILLIANS VICTORIOUS WORLD!)

Plus, we'd probably get a max of what, 3 omakes? Thats a +30, not exactly life threatening
I'm hoping for it to blow up once the First Turn is up, its more a temporary measure until I figure out the most effective system of doing things.

You're still getting your bonus for your hard work its just on a smaller scale.

Not to mention...this is like the first turn of Omakes, I'm going to try to give bonuses sparingly.

Turn 1

Po Town was many things as you looked out the window. Cold, Damp and above all looking miserable.

"At least the Heat Works." You said calmly looking at your Pokemon crashing out near the space heater.

"Yeah, thank goodness for small miracles." Guzma said. "Hey yo...can I ask you a few things?"

"Alright shoot." You said.

It had been a tense couple of days since you moved in with the grumbling and uncertainty of your new leadership position now showing the weight of its so-called crown.

"What's yiye story kid?" The White haired bug specialist asked "Everyone who joins Team skull, whether to try and usurp me or to be hired muscle has got some past they want to get away from. Plumeria had peer pressure, Gladion clearly had mommy issues, so what's skeletons are you keeping in the closet?"

That was an uncomfortable question...one you can't really answer...due to some odd hole in your memory where things should be...Some sort of tournament of sorts? Bahh you'll figure it out later.

"Uhh, I'm a ranger and I was a spy for them and joined team rocket to spy on them." You said awkwardly.

"Hmm" Guzma's baggy eyes seemed to stare right through your soul.

You knew that he could tell you were hiding something, though thankfully he didnt press the issue anymore than that.

"I also Fell in love with the Grass-type Gym Leader Erika, did a festival or two with her...made love in her flower garden before being cockblocked by a Sheymen of all things." You said.

"And then there was the fact The Elder himself got on my case and gave me a Latias egg and then I hatched it. After going around and seeing an Artichuno land and muck a rukus." You continued.

"And the rest I can't remember." You finished.

Guzma was quiet...penitent and silent for but a moment. "Why do I always get the weird ones."

Need to make Money quick if we want to do anything, can look into long term benefits afterwords. Plus highering people is always a plus for extra actions

Establising connections outside is an immediate concern for any large group, so should tying up any loose ends who are destroying our reputation before it begins.

Might as well search the sewers before we clean that thing up.

Getting Skulls to shape up should also be a priority, less chance of them screwing everything aftewords up.

Finally, think Latias needs a little comfort after that frightening experience, and Guzma needs to get back in touch with his boys.

...AND it seems that the ranger was brought in by our faction's weirdness magnet trait...
Why did we get that again?
It was the hero bonus trait, which is always useful. Plus, Team skull always had unique mindset which made the trait seem to thematically fit.
Well, I get the distinct feeling that our choice may have been inevitably going to turn this into an advisor quest, with the leader possibly being a protag considering some of the BS he casually told Guzma...
I guess people have accepted the suddenly advisor quest that this had become?
Still Salty, but the fact we ironically played a part and set things up so Guzma's inflated ego set off his own downfall softened it up.
Remember one of the crazy types is now our boss...
Guzma is Guzma, but at least we could try and reign him in, in spite of the failure that cemented this mess
He's a ranger, surely he wouldn't try something stupid?
We have no clue how MR. undercover rocket operated, let alone a typical ranger. I mean, he somehow IN THAT DESGUISE started a relationship with a GYM LEADER!

...Well, this possible action on his negaquest list won't help!
So this is how team skull falls victim to the insanity...
Oh God. PLUMERA WHY!?!?!?!
WE NEED YOUR SANITY!

A/N: Anyone want to add to this? :D
 
...For some reason, I have been entertaining the possible idea of a nega-TR quest, focused on the trio in the anime whom juggle trying to get THAT ONE PIKACHU from Red/Ash, the crazy heiress trying to get James, and related to the first one, show themselves as useful to Giovani. I mean, they are a terrifyingly capable team, taking on a whole pokecenter through clever timing is their anime introduction. I mean, if it goes similar to the anime, they would be massively successful, with the chaos not really slowing them down due to being better able to adapt to the paradigm shift up until they accidentally picked a fight with red. Possibly at some point triggering Jessibelle's hunt due to an unfortunate encounter in high society tipping her off.... 🤔
I am envisioning the possible chaos of having Red and his friends, the trio, and a very rich and stubborn heiress clashing constantly, pushing the skills of all involved...

The Warp Star trailed out into the distance as Kirby finally landed, a sad yet curious poyo as he looked around.

Where was this place?

The pink super star warrior wandered off, hoping too find something too eat to help take his mind off things.

A rocky beach with nice shores greeted Kirby as he walked across the Coast

This was nice...

*BONK!*

Unfortunately, he didn't see the two men with bats right behind him as he was quickly knocked out and picked up by one of them.

"What is it?" One said, holding up the unconcious Kirby

"Its like a... giant marshmallow." The other said, weirded out by the odd puffball

"We should take it back to Wario, maybe he would give us a reward for it." He suggested, stuffing Kirby into his satchel as they both made off with their possible prize.

"Are you really sure we should bring something that fell from the sky to Lord Wario?" He said.

"Would you rather be busting down doors for loot?" The other man said.

"It is fun though...but I have been meaning to ask for a day off." He said
