Devon Corp. - Rustboro City
"KOFFING!" Somebody shouted among the crowd as if a soldier shouted grenade. The Koffing deployed by Juri began glowjng red, then white, then blue, then...
BTOOOOM
The crowd went into mass hysteria as they scrambled towards the exit; trying to escape the self-destruction. The detonation was the size of that of a hand grenade, and two people were killed in the blast. As the smoke cleared out, the fairgrounds were empty except for Juri, Maxie, that girl who was sitting on the bench, that tall black man with an Elekid, and a couple others who were brave and gallant enough to withstand the self-destruction of a Koffing.
"What's going on? Why was there a Koffing using Self-Destruct in the middle of a large crowd?" A hiker asked, his hands instinctively reaching his Pokeball.
"Was it a trainer's Pokemon? Did the trainer accidentally deploy the Koffing?" A lady trainer hypothesized, her voice shaky.
"No. Only Voltorbs and Electrodes can detonate on their own. The Koffing was instructed to explode himself by somebody." The tall black man with an Elekid stepped up. He wasn't necessarily too handsome, but he looked decent, like a supporting actor for a high-school movie. He was dressed cleanly, with red long-sleeve sweater and black pants. "I don't know if that trainer is still with us here or not, but if he is... then he probably has more detonating Pokemon ready."
"Do not worry. My Camerupt will handle any trainer up to no good." Maxie deployed his Camerupt: a 6'3" tall camel Pokemon with two volcano-like humps on top of his orange fur.

Juri was quick to dart out of the way when the frightened audience turned tail and ran for their lives. She pressed up against a wall and watched as a stampede of terrified people burst from the fairgrounds and into the city. They would be helping Juri and Neo Magma by being witnesses to the chaos, chaos which they caused by freaking out. But it wasn't enough for Juri, not by a long shot.
The Koffing seemed like it was just an appetizer, but it was supposed to be much more than that. It was supposed to be a signal for the other concealed pokemon to explode, thus creating more casualties. Juri was miffed when the explosions didn't get set off, but she wasn't about to go out into the fairgrounds and see to them herself. Already the few survivors, Maxie included, seemed to be ready for a fight or a battle. However, Juri wasn't prepared to send out her companion in head-on battles anytime soon. The Purloin was quick and agile, but she wasn't a powerhouse.
"Come on you stupid things," Juri grumbled as she waited for more explosions. "Do your job..."

"Was that a terrorist attack? What happened?" Another trainer, fearful of what happened just now, stuttered as he reached for his pockets for his Pokeball.
"I think somebody had a vendetta against the Devon Corporation's new president." Maxie observed. "If anything, it could be-"
BTOOOOOOM
Secondary explosions from the other deployed self-destruction Pokemon caused the ground to rumble and the sky to scream. Some parts of the Devon Corporation building began to crumble as the explosion was much louder and much more violent than the Koffing. The remaining trainers all ducked for cover as the building debris began to fall on them, while Maxie hid behind his Camerupt who blasted the incoming debris away with his Lava Plume. The black-haired girl merely stared at the debris as they fell on her, but she was able to evade them; all of them, by mere inches.
Route 101
The Fletchling looked at Okuu, chirped happily, and began taking off. With a quick flap of her wings, she began flying circles around Okuu, chirping and dizzying the little Larvitar.

"Alright, now you choose one from your tray." Professor Birch turned to Sela as one of his assistant brought a new set of 3 Pokeballs to him.

"I know which one I want. Which one is Treeko?" Sela asks quickly. Her Eevee thens plops Sela's nose. "You are right Eevee. I'm sorry about that Professor. I would like to pick Treeko." Sela said apologizing for a slight rudeness in the quickness of asking.

"No matter how strong or what power the enemy has, I will fight and protect my friends, even if it cost me my life to protect them. I will fight until I die to ensure their future."

"That's alright. Some people have preferences and I want to respect that." Professor Birch said to Sela as he called over the same assistant. "This young lady wants a Treecko. Do we have..."
"We have one, bred and hatched in the imcubator, that is Lv: 5." The assistant answered.
"Good. Give that Treecko to her. I'm sure the Treecko would love to have a trainer to depend on." Professor Birch nodded and ordered. The assistant nodded as well and briskly walked off towards a safe-like door, opened it, and entered. Professor Birch then turned to the lady in purple. "Now, you can choose a Pokemon from here, miss..."
"You can call me Glitch." The lady in purple, Glitch, reached into her pocket and drew out a paper. "I think Professor Juniper wanted me to give this to you."
"She did? Then I'll take the letter." Professor Birch reached out to grab Glitch's paper and began reading it. "Uh huh... uh huh... I see. You can follow me to the incubator then. The two of you can follow me as well."
Professor Birch trodded off towards the safe door, which was revealed to be a door to a large Pokemon incubator, where young Pokemon freshly hatched from an egg can grow to become Lv: 5, the optimal level for a Pokemon to become a starter. Glitch followed suit, contrasting Professor Birch's short height with her long, supermodel-like legs.

Juri was intrigued by the sounds of explosions. She remembered a much simpler time where she used to fear the loud booms from explosions. They used to shake her and make her run for cover, but her adoptive parents always soothed her nerves and helped her through the finales of celebrations. Her parents weren't here for these explosions, but Juri wasn't frightened anymore. Now... Now she couldn't help but marvel at the destruction.
She wanted to stay and observe the torment she caused, but Juri had finished her mission. All that was required of her was to disrupt the ceremony, and she did just that. It was time to leave. Maxie would have to wait, especially when Juri was under-equipped with a low-level Pokemon and outnumbered. The Korean tugged her Purloin along with her as she slimmed away from the fairgrounds and back to the main part of Rustboro.
Entertainment was in order....

"Everyone alright?" Maxie called out to everyone, probably worried more about the black-haired girl than anyone else, but still anxious to know if the rest are alright or not.
"I'm okay!"
"I'm hit but my backpack saved me."
"Same here."
"Good. But-" Maxie looked around. There was the tall black man with an Elekid, the hiker, and the panicking woman, but where was that black-haired girl? The last time he saw her, she was avoiding the countless debris like it was some shoot-em-up game. Then she seemingly disappeared as the chaos continued. Besides, why was Maxie so obsessed with making sure this black-haired girl was safe?
"Caitlyn, where is she?" Maxie, almost hyperventilating, leaped over the fallen concrete debris, leaving the fairgrounds and searching for the girl among the curious crowd of onlookers and incoming Pokemon police force. "Caitlyn... where did you wonder off to this time...?"
Rustboro City
Juri's phone began ringing as soon as she exited the fairground into the downtown. The sound itself wasn't audible due to the sirens of the Pokemon police cars, cacophony of the worries of the muttering trainers, and other general city noises, but as soon as Juri steps into the quieter side of the city, she will be able to hear the phone ringing.
Meanwhile, the black-haired girl, Caitlyn, was looking around the crowd until she saw the familiar brown hair tied in two bangs resembling horns. She silently snuck through the large crowd, following Juri.

Rustboro City - ((@Wriggle))
Only those with a sick sense of humor would ever derive pleasure from the suffering of others. Juri was one of those people, and she enjoyed seeing everyone get so worked up over a bit of chaos. She hid in plain sight and observed as police, rangers and other service personnel rushed over to Devon Corp. They probably wouldn't be able to save anyone who was seriously injured. After all, they couldn't save Juri all those years ago with a pat on the back and a bold-faced lie.
"Don't worry everyone," Juri whispered to herself, her tone sarcastic. "Everything's going to be alright."
She noticed her Purloin hadn't uttered a sound since the explosions, not that Juri cared. Perhaps the purple cat had grown a conscience. That wouldn't be necessary or helpful for any future missions. Regardless, as long as the cat followed orders, Juri couldn't care less if Ripley had qualms about the work. Juri reached into her pocket and fished out her flip phone after making sure she wasn't being tailed by police.
While it seemed that no authority was after her just yet, Juri had overlooked the strange, black-haired girl from earlier. She was unaware that she was being followed as she consulted her phone.

"My accomplice told me that you have succeeded in the job," the man beyond the phone, Domino began with a concerned yet satisfied tone. The Charmeleon next to him growled, foaming fire at his mouth. "but have made some... unnecessary casualties."
"No matter. You have done well. Now get out of there before the 5-0s. Your way out will be prepared near Route 115."

Unnecessary casualties? Juri furrowed her brow at Domino's tone and the way he worded his concern. With all due respect, just what the hell did he expect from a dozen explosives going off in a congested area? Some minor cuts and fainting? The world wasn't some ten-year old's wonderland filled with cherrydrops and sunshine. Life was hard here, and there were people out there who enjoyed making even the most tranquil cities a living hell. Not to mention it was Juri's job to cause some destruction, so she had to crack a few heads to get it done.
Scoffing, Juri shook her head and listened to Domino lay out her escape to the north. She was certain that she hadn't been followed by the authorities, let alone anyone who was curious about her. There were other things to worry about than a conspicuous woman with a Purloin and a cruel smile on her lips. She wanted to stay a little longer and watch all the anguish and heartbreak around her, but orders were orders. However, she wouldn't let Domino off that easily.
The sadist licked her lips and spoke into her phone.
"Hmm... You can't make an omelette without cracking a few eggs. Add in a few spices, some gratuitous injuries and salty tears and you'll have something you can really sink your teeth into. It's quite tasty, actually." Juri started to make her way north with a content, if not complacent, saunter. "Maxie was there. I take it that's why I was ordered to crash the party."
