The members continued to discuss what needed to be done. Between the witches and anything else important. That included Brianna. A witch that seemed to be following her own rules and game. Triad had come up with something to share with Jon and the others it had seemed.

“Yeah, we looked into this,” Cassandra replied, trying to pretend she wasn’t in costume. “Page 216 of the Zeketh tome goes into details regarding a spell called the Expavescimus Charm. It redirects spells back at the one who casted them. The reagents aren’t too difficult to get, either. That simply requires a broken mirror to be ground up into dust and mashed-up feathers from an unevolved flying Pokémon. The three of us figured those should be easy to acquire as well, as Wingull feathers are easy to find on the beach and should suffice for the spell.”

“The other spell mentioned on page 384 is called Luxum Patibatur, a curse that causes the victim to hemorrhage energy,” Cassandra further explained. “Reagents for that include human blood, ginger, and paint thinners. Should be relatively easy to acquire. Now, the method to turn these two into a hybrid, which the three of us never delved into before, is known as a Simul spell, which needs ashes of burnt paper. Before that paper is turned into ashes, it needs to have two overlapping handprints in red ink. All this together leads up to a hybrid spell that would not only redirect a spell back at the caster, but it would also make them bleed out their energy.”

“Right now, reagents are the big challenge,” Cassandra told the group. “Diversifying is key, but we can’t go overboard to the point where we need mountains of reagents. So my thought is having this protective redirect spell be one among five that we can use the next time we confront Agatha. As for the other four, we’ll need to delve into the books to come up with some useful options for this situation. What I thought might also help is varying the nature of our attack.”

It seemed like they found a way to counter many of these spells and hexes. Jimmy thought that may be good, but that's be a lot of people to cover at the same time. Like Cassandra wanted. Jirachi could restore the urgent care. Giving them enough of their resources back for whatever they may need. Jimmy still had his plan to discuss as well. Just waiting for the right moment to speak up. Then one thing Cassandra said stood out.

“Some of us can attack as human trainers,” Cassandra proposed. “Others, those who are a bit braver, can be transformed into Pokémon and attack on that front, leaving Agatha and her followers guessing who is the trainer and who are the actual Pokémon. Not to mention there are far more spells made to transform humans than there are spells to transform Pokémon. And then there’s other transformations and traits that can be utilized. For those who are really brave open to the idea, preemptively transforming someone into say a pixie, a lycanthrope, or a mermaid, for example, complicates things for the other side. It forces one transformation spell to have to overwrite another. Sometimes that’s possible, sometimes it’s not, or sometimes it can be difficult and doesn’t take the first time. Given, a number of us have already been hit with spells like this and haven’t been cured, yet. Quite frankly, it’s better to keep them on if they’re bearable enough and you can still move and fight with them. It’s very easy to transform a human and most of these spells were made to do just that. But if they’re already something else, there’s a solid chance the spell may fizzle trying to transform a human when the target is not that at all.”

It sounded like a plan, but not everyone was for it at first. Some even chiming in saying it sounded crazy. Thing is, we all knew that very well. Most of us here knew exactly what we were getting into coming here. Some of us didn't and are along for the ride now. Though even Steven knew that we had to do what we must. Even if it comes to the extremes.

"She's right. We can have actual Pokemon who know how to fight other Pokemon holding off their Ghost Types, and have people who volunteer to become Pokemon giving hell to the witches. If their magic is ineffective, they are human, and a flamethrower will still burn them..." Jon said, before hoping his own confidence would inspire others to be willing to try something out of the box, "I volunteer to temporarily become a Pokemon. My own team are trained in how to battle without my direction, and Latios can act as a central hub for communication between myself and them. Rayquaza is an exception, but I have faith I can get it trained reasonably will if I have a little time to spend with it..."

Well this was a bit unexpected for Jimmy to hear. Jon volunteering to become a Pokemon himself. Soon after another stood up. Volunteering themselves.

“I volunteer as well. I’ve been under the affect of similar spells before, and I’m not afraid of them. I can probably be more help as a pokemon at this time.” Jimmy didn't quite recognize them, but it was another to the forces needed for a team. She also had that familiar looking Alolan Vulpix with her.

“Oh please tell me we’re doing this,” Jarena smiled to Cassandra with a twinkle in her eyes.

“Don’t see why not,” Cassandra replied, smirking a bit. “Plus it would solve our issue of not having real clothes at the moment. The three of us opt in to become Pokémon as well,” Cassandra told the group. “We have some familiarity with this, but if there’s any other volunteers that are thinking about this and want to know what it involves, let me know, I can go into details later.”

Looked like Cassandra and her team were about to join the fray as well. Cynthia thought if that were the case they needed to transfer to Steven's team and fight more on the offensive line. Steven and Cynthia fought this out. He was right to a fact though. If we lose them and very powerful key against this enemy would be out and we wouldn't have much in line to help cure anyone. Sometimes we gotta use unexpected tactics to take a pivotal piece. Thing is, the first to make such a move could be a game changer.

"Ah why the hell not. I volunteer as well." Jimmy spoke up. "I've been a turned into a Pokemon as well. Even had a few years of training as one too. So I can help this team out."

Jimmy also thought this would be the perfect time to get what he needed said out.

"I do have one question. Regardless of being transformed. We would still have to watch out for other such as hexes placed no? While a direct spell would be something that could easily be redirected when cast. If they placed an indirect spell or hex it could still take effect right? Without that direct connection they could still get through. Though I do have an idea to get through that."

Jimmy pulled out a bag from his gear. Pulling one of the items from it.

"This is a special star piece. It's imbued with special psychic energy and a form of wish energy. Not many know other than Steven, Cynthia, and a select few others here that I own a Jirachi. It's location is at our own HQ which is anonymous for good reason. I feel if our enemy got ahold of the fact a Jirachi is here it could become a target."

Jimmy took a breath for a moment. "Back on topic. These special star pieces have a few special powers that it grants you. It helps to detect nearby fluctuations in shadowcraft power and alike. So if a hex or spell is placed in an area, target, or object. This thing will shake and glow to make sure you are aware."

Jimmy point to his thunderstone pendant. "I had mine imbued into this pendant. Best part about this is it can also work as a radio connection with Jirachi himself. He can keep track of anyone that has this and their surroundings. So if anyone around here doesn't have access to a psychic Pokemon and needs one. This star piece will give you that ability to connect with Jirachi through his telepathy as if he were there right beside you."

Jimmy looked to Steven before speaking out again. "Steven, I know you were looking forward to an explanation about how I planned to help rebuild the Urgent Care as I mentioned. Well, this is how. We've been using these to help mitigate Jirachi's power. While he has a direct connection to whatever he's connecting with. It takes less time for him to focus. So using any of his powers have been like many of us taking a breath of air. Simple as snapping your finger."

Jimmy grabbed one of the piece and held it to himself. "We plan to have the Urgent Care Center restored totally. Though it will appear completely destroyed still. Anyone with these will have access to the real one that we will have rebuilt using Jirachi's power. It will be a place hidden deep underground and hidden from any shadowcraft abilities to detect. Only those with one of these star pieces will be able to enter and even detect it."

Jimmy placed the star piece back in the bag. Holding it out for anyone. "I understand not everyone will want one and that's your choice. If you would like it you can use this for your own protect. I had Jirachi help craft these to help mitigate his power and help protect everyone on this island at any cost. So if you'd like one we have enough for everyone here and more. Before coming on this mission we gathered as many star pieces as we could muster. Having known Jirachi can focus his powers on these ever since training him. So this is our gift to everyone. Protection, safety, and more. Anyone can talk with Jirachi or request for help. It can easily work as a walkie talkie if needed as well. It just takes communication with Jirachi to connect those you need to talk with." Jimmy held out the bag.

"So anyone that wants one you're free to take one. It'll offer some protection against these witches, offer you a place to enter in case we need an emergency meeting place, and Jirachi can teleport you if need be to central places we have posted. Though right now the places you can teleport are limited for now." Jimmy said nodding to Steven. "But for now that reasoning is being held classified to avoid any leaks whatsoever. Speaking of, Jon." Jimmy looked to him.

"I know that you wanted everything in this room left here and here alone and to that I can assure you it will stay, but these star pieces do have direct lines with Jirachi and Jirachi alone. So even though he is not here. He's always listening through these. They also work as listening points. So he can hear our surroundings, see our surroundings, and more. So for that I apologize, but can assure you no one else can hear. Jirachi has been trained over these last four years to do what's right, what's requested, and better improve our lives. Everyone's lives. The information here is still secret and of that I can assure you." Jimmy nodded to him hoping he would understand.

"There's more information I can disclose on Jirachi and what we are planning on our side, but I think I've over spoke." Jimmy said as he looked around for anyone that may want to have one of the star pieces and that may have had any questions on his side.
