"Been told working with that gardevoir was a brand risk, in spite of her being a brand. How Cassiopeia's able to keep from being a pr nightmare is an anomaly, but she's somehow managed to keep both her family friendly and raunchy clientele satisfied! On one hand, she has her family friendly line of mass produced dairy products. On the other hand, she has her "artisan" products that tie in with her more adult-oriented services. Somehow the latter managed to branch to the former when she scaled it up with advanced genetic tampering."

"And so goes our grand collaboration! Two part in bringing her mother's splicing tech, and her introducing these creatures from another world. These "pals" as they're known. We decided that increasingly fierce duels of pokemon and trainer versus a pal duo that would follow roughly the same dynamic would be a great way to showcase things. Rookies, veterans, then capped off by professionals with defeat criteria set at 75%, 50% and 25% vitals respectively. Combatants will be immediately pulled out and treated when they drop below those thresholds. The rookie round went to the pals, veteran round to the pokemon and professional round a tie being broken by popular vote for pokemon."

"And the kicker, professional round was a transformed me and my mismagius versus Cassiopeia and her mewtwo-looking thing. I think she calls her a "Lunaris?" either way., the battle was intense! My mismagius was first to go, followed by Cass. A frantic thunder attack by yours truly was met with the equivalent of a sand attack by the clever lunaris, using her telekinesis to scrape and hurl dirt my way. In preparing for this fight, we planned my transformation. The idea of me going magneton or magnezone was a no brainer with my lovely little magnemites, but I didn't want to go all cycloptic! Whatever gene tweaking they did, they made it so that my transformation was relatively minimal. I was under heavy monitoring and I really felt like crap during the transformation. I also got pretty hungry during the time, but I was told that that was because my body was really working overtime to change up. Once the transformation was complete, I could pretty much hover, zap, and had colored fingers that kind of resemble a painted magnet! The finishing touch was the visor gifted to me so that I could look the part more."

"Definitely going to hold onto this new form for a while, get a lot more content out of it before changing back. I'm gonna miss being able to fly, sure, but I think I miss being able to share the water with my friends more, and it's REALLY taking a while to learn how to control these new electric powers." - Iono

Magne Iono mood just had to be manifested. Wouldn't settle for the cyclops version, so I made my own.
