I'll have to talk to Ryner's player before we could make any plans, buuuut Sion and Ryner are currently hanging out in Blackthorn and will be there at least for the beginning of the plot, and they definitely would not sit back quietly if they saw Rocket shenanigans going on. :D;; Ryner I know has multiple level 100s in his party, and while Sion has none yet he does have several who ware or will by the time be at 80+, and both of them got level 4 powers (Sion is ice, Ryner is electric).

Oh, and both of them wouldn't think twice about completely ignoring the "rules" of proper pokemon battles if it came to fighting a known Rocket (i.e. double-teaming someone, attacking the trainer rather than the pokemon, etc). So, y'know, there is definitely a possibility of this being a thing. :D

HOWEVER, I should note, that since Sion and Ryner attacking Rockets could potentially turn into a Big Deal, at least for them (which is why we've frequently deliberately avoided getting them involved before), iiiff it should be the case that it would be better for them to be out of Blackthorn/out of commission at the time that could also be coordinated, though we'd need to know details to come up with something. So basically EITHER WAY we should totally talk. :|a

Hey there! Kimblee and Archer are going to be paired up for the shenanigans in Blackthorn; though their trust and teamwork skills have taken a rather solid hit since Kimblee's attack on Goldenrod, they're going to be double-teaming the Gyms and anyone who happens to get in their way. They both have full teams of level 100s, and they've specifically trained their Pokémon into attacking humans without a second thought, so it's perfectly fine to have the Pokémon trying to take out the trainers.

If you'd like to talk/hammer out details, I can almost always be reached on AIM (AsylumBred) or via PM - Redd's on a brief vacation right now with no internet, but I'll be sure to relay any messages to her!

Yeah, I assumed they'd be working together, I just wanted to be clear on what they're potentially up against. Despite generally being the good guys, neither Sion nor Ryner is particularly scrupulous about pulling out all the stops when the situation clearly calls for it. None of this silly nonsense about chivalry or fighting fair or anything like that. So since it was mentioned you'd guys would prefer them to get away with attacking the gym I thought I'd mention. ^_^;;

I won't be able to get on AIM or talk at length until this evening (like around 5:30ish central time), but one idea I had would be that Kimblee and Archer could happen to attack the gym sometime when Sion and Ryner aren't in the immediate vicinity. Which would give them time to wreak some havoc and still give a chance to have an epic showdown once Sion and Ryner arrive on the scene, if that sounds like a thing you'd guys be up for.
