Chronicles of a Ragtag Crisis Team

Summary:

Corbeau makes a groupchat with the people who helped save Lumiose from Ange and Darkrai, and says it's strictly for protecting Lumiose. It goes about as well as you'd expect.

Notes:

Hey all! This is my first Pokemon fanfic! Despite being a fan for over a decade, I hadn't really been attached to any of the characters until Legends ZA came along. I LOVE PLZA's cast and if anything happened to them I would destroy everyone in the universe and then myself.

Despite the tags saying "Chatfic", I plan to make most of the chapters actual prose with a third-person POV. There will be ships, but the tags will be added as the chapters progress, and they are not the main focus of this story. This fic is entirely self-indulgent lol, I just wanted to write some cute & happy interactions between this lovely group of Pokemon trainers. Hope you enjoy!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: How it Began

Chapter Text

Corbeau added Harmony, Urbain, Lida, & 13 others to “Ragtag Crisis Team”

 

Corbeau: Hello, team!

 

Urbain: uh what is this

 

Corbeau: Well, as you all know, Lumiose has been through TWO crises already. In case anything else comes up, I figured I should have a way to reach all of you at once. Hence this group chat.

 

Lida: I guess that makes sense

 

Corbeau: BUT! This is STRICTLY for the prosperity of Lumiose. Do NOT go blowing up this group chat with meaningless chatter. Can everyone reply with a “thumbs up” emoji so I know you understand?

 

Phillipe: 👍

 

Vinnie: 👍

 

Lida: 👍

 

Gwynn: 👍. and another 👍 on Ivor’s behalf.

 

Corbeau: Why? He’s too good to reply himself?

 

Gwynn: he shatters the rotom phones whenever he touches them.

 

Emma: I thought he said he’d try to be more gentle with them in the future?

 

Gwynn: he’s still working on it

 

Emma: Oh. Well, anyways, here’s my thumbs up: 👍

 

Grisham: If it’s for the benefit of Lumiose, we are always happy to help. 👍

 

Griselle: 👍

 

Korrina: 👍

 

Canari: woah so this means we’re officially like

 

Canari: Lumiose’s saviours or something right?

 

Harmony: Who is we?

 

Canari: cmon bro

 

Canari: we helped you get to Zygarde during that time the tower went rogue

 

Harmony: And even then I still did like 80% of the work

 

Corbeau: What did I say about filling this group chat with meaningless chatter?

 

Harmony: Just saying. 

 

Harmony: But fine. 👍

 

Corbeau: That aside, I still have not received a thumbs-up from the rest of you lot.

 

Urbain: Oh right. 👍

 

Naveen: Is this really necessary?

 

Canari: I’ll do it if it gets Corbeau to stop whining. 👍

 

Naveen: I agree! 👍

 

Tarragon: 👍

 

Lebanne: 👍

 

Jacinthe: Lebanne.

 

Lebanne: Yes, Lady Jacinthe?

 

Jacinthe: Did I give you permission to send a thumbs-up?

 

Lebanne: Well

 

Lebanne: Um

 

Jacinthe: This action shall have grave consequences. 

 

Lebanne: WAIT!!!!

 

Lebanne: LADY JACINTHE! I’M SORRY!!!

 

Lebanne: PLEASE FORGIVE ME

 

Jacinthe: You will not be spared.

 

Corbeau: Seriously? What’s your problem now?

 

Jacinthe: Before I send my thumbs-up, I would like administrator’s privileges.

 

Corbeau: No.

 

Jacinthe: Then I will not be sending anything.

 

Corbeau: This group chat is for the good of Lumiose. Doesn’t an elite like yourself want to see Lumiose prosper?

 

Jacinthe: But of course! That is exactly why I should be given admin! 

 

Jacinthe: I will oversee this group chat and ensure you are all becoming the best trainers you can possibly be!

 

Lebanne: I must warn you that Lady Jacinthe is not one to take “No” for an answer.

 

Corbeau: Trust me, I am *well* aware.

 

Corbeau: Alright, fine. Jacinthe, I will give you admin privileges if you give me your word that you will not abuse this power.

 

Jacinthe: Moi? Abuse my power? Monsieur, I would never do something like that!

 

Corbeau: …right.

 

Canari: HELLO??? 

 

Canari: are we forgetting the whole Jacinthe Zone fiasco at the tournament???

 

Jacinthe: Speaking of my tournament…

 

Corbeau: No. More. Meaningless. Chatter.

 

Jacinthe: Meaningless? You dare call my super deluxe tournament “meaningless”?

 

Canari: omg

 

Canari: can you two get a room

 

Corbeau: Excuse me?

 

Gwynn: lmfao

 

Tarragon: Good one, Canari!

 

Naveen: That was hilarious!

 

Jacinthe: Monsieur Corbeau. The admin privileges?

 

Corbeau: Fine. But I won’t hesitate to remove them if I find you using them for unsavory purposes.

 

Jacinthe has been made Admin by Corbeau

 

Jacinthe: Merci! 👍

 

Corbeau: Now that that’s settled, I think it’s about time we end this conversation. Don’t send any other messages unless they’re related to Lumiose.

 

Harmony: k.

 

Corbeau: A pleasant evening to you all.
