Though there might be prisoners... They'll want to not, like, just blow up the base.

Which would also destroy evidence of any further bases or whatever, and Espeon would like to not do that.

So they'll search it first.

Yeah.

How do they want to do that? They'd cover ground faster if they split up...

Ellie would prefer they all stay together.

Flicker prefers the same. Splitting up means they'd be easier pickings if they got targeted in return.

Right.

Anything else? 

Think that's about it. They can approach from this side here, then sweep through.

Espeon agrees on that approach. She does think they should bring an easy way to map and record the facility, and possibly some way of backing up any data...

Ellie can set up a geotrack link between her phone and the Pokedex.

Smart. Espeon also has some small, nearly invisible cameras that can attach to a collar.

That works too, if people are okay with it.

They are; probably it won't hurt to do both. 

Right, then they'll get those set up and set off.

Intrepid and Jolteon can help with the tech, then - yeah. Out towards the maybe-facility, to scout at first...

Maybe-facility: ...maybe there.

Patrolling guard in a dark uniform and accompanying golbat who attack on sight: definitely there.

Bad decision for them! The Ellievees outnumber the golbat a lot.

Stiletto focuses on taking down the human - preferably also stopping them from alerting anyone. 

Golbat manages to spit up a few blobs of poison before getting overwhelmed.

The guard's radio proves insufficiently insulated to survive Stilletto's attack. And the guard's not wearing rubber soles, either.

Well he's not dead yet, so as far as Stiletto's concerned, she's been rather nice.

Garnet goes to nose around the guard, looking for anything like keys they can steal. 

He has a cardkey clipped to his belt, next to a flashlight, truncheon, and a holster of expensive-looking pokeballs.

Flashlight's probably busted, but other stuff should be usable. 

Ellie stoops to grab the cardkey and the rack of pokeballs.

"Not full," she announces, examining them.
