“Soooooooo....you say that you brought in the sceptile outlaw…completed all three of the tasks for the explorers…and participated in the fashion show?” Alexander the meowth looked up, staring at the ponyta aside from him. “Care to explain how you did all that…?”
“Sure thing buddy, though it’s a really crazy story so make sure you take it all down, don’t want any of it to get forgotten or mixed up…and make sure sir breaks a lot doesn’t mess it up either okay?” The ponyta sat back, clearing her throat before nodding. “Okay, so it starts out like this, I’d been out for the last couple days, searching high and low for any sign of those slippery ninja dudes! I probably could have gone out and did the Explorer jobs to start out with, but let’s be honest, hunting ninjas is like a thousand times more awesome than looking for a stump, building next to a stump, digging next to the stump…though the chance of blowing the tunnel up was really awesome!” She cleared her throat. “Though uh…I’m getting ahead of myself. So yeah, I was out hunting for the ninjas…”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Man, how hard is it to find a giant green lizard in a half destroyed town?” Rin the blitzle groaned, bouncing from rooftop to rooftop while looking around for any signs of the sceptile ninja they were supposed to capture. “Been doing this for days and haven’t found anything but weird puppets shaped like the green dude…and there’s no sign of the other dudes either…” The zebra sighed, stomping her hoof in annoyance as she looked around the town.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Wait wait wait…you said you did this job all by yourself…”
“Yeah.”
“But…you’re describing a blitzle.”
“Yeah.”
“…But you’re not a blitzle! You’re a ponyta!”
“Yeah.”
“…So you didn’t do this job by yourself!”
“Yeah I did! Well…I had some help in some of the jobs…but the stuff I’m talking about right now I totally did by myself…up until I got help.”
“But you’re talking about a blitzle! You’re a ponyta!”
“Duh, I can change between the two mister brainy cat!”
“You can change between being a ponyta and a blitzle?”
“Duh, I filled that out in my guild registration.”
“You can shapeshift?”
“Yeah.”
“And you’re not a ditto?”
“Nope.”
“Or a zorua or zoroark?”
“Nope.”
“Then….then how could you swap forms?”
“Jeez I was gonna get to that, just chill and let me tell my story!”
The meowth sighed, rubbing his temples before nodding. “Fine…please continue…”
“Cool, now where was I? Oh right! Patrolling the streets on the lookout for trouble!”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Mmmmmmm….back alley looks pretty empty….couple of creeps hanging around…cat in the hat chit chatting with a little muscle dude…no sign of over grown lizards…” She sighed, turning her attention to a more main street. “Mmmmm….yard full of…badmitten things…hunter dudes showing ghost chick around town…weird porygon chick hanging up flyers…explorers leaving town…man….what’s a girl gotta do to find a ninja in this town?!” She growled, stomping her hoof again in frustration.
Just as she was about ready to move on and continue her search, she stopped as she heard a loud commotion coming from down at the market place. After looking over the area quickly though her eyes lit up, seeing the familiar short tailed sceptile standing in front of the same group of hunters she had just been looking at. “Ninja Jackpot!” The blitzle cheered happily, hopping up and down before stopping and smiling. “Okay, gotta get down there and catch that dude before those dudes end up catching him!” She smirked, lunging down off of her rooftop before rushing towards the crowded marketplace.”
“Roark! Roark you okay?!”
“I’m…I’m fine…”
The blitzle skidded to a stop as she reached the group of hunters she had been watching. “Hey! You guys see a giant green lizard…run…by……” She trailed off, looking down at the clay golem that had collapsed in front of the group, one of his large arms laying a few feet away from him. “Whoa…that’s not good….”
“It’s fine…” The golett groaned, pushing himself up with his one arm, before starting to shakily walk towards his lost arm, finding it hard to balance with only one arm though.
“Oh when I get my hands on that green chump…I’ll…do…something!” The porygon2 yelled, her legs spinning wildly as she floated behind her partner.
“No. No you wont…”
“WHAT?” The virtual pokemon looked back to her partner. “That chump just dearmed you!” Her body gave a hard spark as she glitched wildly. “Aren’t you mad?”
“I’m fine kid…” The golett shook his head before stumbling forward, his smaller friend dashing forward, floating under his arm to help him stay balanced. “Nghhhh…we still have a job to do. We can’t leave the Ambassador alone…that might be just what he wants us to do…”
“But…”
“We’re staying here…” The golett’s eyes started to glow brightly as he looked to his partner, the porygon2 sighing and nodding.
“Fine…”
“Uh…hey sorry to interrupt…” The blitzle trotted up, looking to the two genderless mons, “I’m actually looking for that sceptile….any idea where he went? I promise to kick his scaly butt for you!”
“Uh…yeah.” The golett reached down, picking up his lost arm before pointing down one of the nearby alleyways. “He went that way.”
“Thanks! And uh…sorry ‘bout the arm…you look pretty tough either way big buddy!” She gave a quick wave with her hoof, before stomping the ground, her striped body glowing brightly before she was engulfed in flames and rushed down the road. “I’m coming for you ya green jerk!” She continued dashing along, leaving the marketplace while using her flame charge to help speed her along.
As she rounded a corner, and ran into entering one of the back alley's of the city, the flaming pokemon came to a screeching stop, looking down at a shiny furfrou who had a wound in his side. “Hey buddy, you okay?” The flames continued to dissipate, leaving a single female ponyta standing in front of the injured pokemon.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Okay wait…so now you came in? Where did you come from? What happened to the blitzle?”
“Nothing! I swapped forms!”
“…You can’t change forms….”
“Yeah I can!”
“No you can’t!”
“Can too!”
“Well explain it to me then!”
“Easy! I know flame charge and wild charge, flame charge makes me a ponyta, wild charge makes me a blitzle.”
“…That makes no sense…”
“Shows what you know!”
“…Whatever…now where were you?”
“Well before I was oh so rudely interrupted…I was helping out this dog…I think his name was Jacob…he said he was with the Hunter's...and then!”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Buddy, hey buddy.” Ren the ponyta gave the shiny furfrou’s side a soft poke with her hoof.
“Nghhhh…I’m…fine…” The furfrou stumbled to his feet, looking to the ponyta. “He…threw a berry at me…” Jacob groaned, rubbing his injured side before shoving the ponyta away.
“Oof…hey!” She growled, stomping her foot. “What was that for?”
“That!” The furfrou pointed to a passho berry that had landed between them.
“…It’s a berry…”
“Yeah, but it nearly hit you.”
“Uhh…thanks…I guess?” She blinked, jumping back as another berry landed at her hooves. “Hey!” She growled crouching down, staring towards the sceptile that had been throwing the berries. “Don’t you know that’s a waste of semi good food?” She growled, dashing forward as her body became engulfed in flames, slamming the troublesome ninja into a nearby wall. “Ha! Take that punk!”
“That’s a substitute!”
“What?” The ponyta took a step back, watching the charred remains of the lizard drop down, leaving nothing more than a charred puppet. “Not cool!” She growled, jumping aside as another berry flew towards her. “You’re going down punk!” Her body was engulfed in flames yet again, dashing towards the ninja’s current location. “And just so you don’t try anything funny!” She smirked from under her flames, several other ponyta appearing beside her as they all raced after the green lizard. “Take this!” They all yelled, slamming into the sceptile one after another, though much to their dismay, it was a substitute yet again.
“Fool…” The sceptile laughed as he watched the ponytas running around trying to find where he had gone from.
“Look who’s talking!” He jumped, looking up as four hooves slammed down on him from above, the ponyta smirking as she stood on top of the sceptile. “You might be slippery, but I’m too fast and too tough! Ha!” She smirked as she bounced up and down on him a few times to make sure he was down for good.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“And that’s how I took down that ninja punk! Distract him, then BOOM! Bounce to the head, punk didn’t even see what hit him!”
“I see…well…aside from the shapeshifting…that story was…semi believable…”
“Only semi? What?”
“Relax…you’ll still get your reward…now then…care to explain your other stories?”
“Sweet! And totally! So uh…after dropping tall green and scaly at the jail, I rushed out of town, picked up a couple of riolu on the way, we rushed through the place, and before you ask, no I didn’t burn anything down. Luckily most of the forest had been explored already, so we didn’t need to search very much. We actually bumped into a pidove and a hippopotas that were wandering around, we ended up finding the stump all together. And man was that thing big. So anyways, after we found the stump, we called over that wrestling bird chick, and got to digging. Though I gotta say, digging, aint the easiest of things to do when you got hooves. So I decided to let that rest for a bit. I started focusing on helping the big dude build the new outpost. That’s actually where I got this wicked sick wood plank!” The ponyta laughed as she pointed to a large wooden board. “Thing is totally awesome. But anyways, I’m totally fast and tough and stuff, so I helped deliver wood from town to the outpost. Kinda lame we couldn’t cut down any of those dead trees around the place, but it’s whatevs. We got plenty of wood, made a simple shack to help mark the place, not very pretty, but it’ll do for the time being. And while I was busy doing all that, the others actually managed to get pretty deep with the digging. They found this whole sick under water area, and…well since I still cant really dig without hands, I started removing some of those weird explosive plants…which was good! Cause it would’ve really been bad if one of those things went off…and I also heard the researchers are using some of those plants in fireworks! Totally awesome! Would’ve loved to blow one of those up…but uh…didn’t want to get on the bosses bad side, know what I’m saying?”
“Okay…so you helped discover the stump…helped build…and helped dig…that right?”
“Righto kitty cat!”
The meowth sighed, nodding as he wrote it all down. “Okay…now you also said you participated in the fashion show? That right?”
“Yup!”
“Though records indicate you don’t have a customized item.”
“Sure don’t!”
“Then how did you participate?”
“Oh I borrowed this totally awesome hat from a vannilite I met! She was so cool!” The ponyta giggled at her pun. “The thing was totally fire proof, so I decided to do a wicked trick to show it off!” She cleared her throat, smirking as she remembered her trick. “See, I came out, blitzle form, looking all cool and awesome as ever, and when I reached the end of the run way, BOOM! I go fire charge and double team, bounce high into the air, and when I come down and the flames are gone, I’m in my ponyta form. And the hat was totally fine! That hat was awesome!”
“Mmmmhmmmm…so you ‘transformed’ by using your fire charge yet again…and used that to help show off the hat?”
“Sure did.”
“I still don’t believe your transformation story…”
“Don’t have to, just gotta write it down kitty cat.”
“Stop calling me that!” Alexander growled softly under his breath before nodding. “Fine…I’ll send this through….but don’t come crying to me if your guild leaders deny you the rewards…”
“Pfffft…why would they do that?”
“Sure thing buddy, though it’s a really crazy story so make sure you take it all down, don’t want any of it to get forgotten or mixed up…and make sure sir breaks a lot doesn’t mess it up either okay?” The ponyta sat back, clearing her throat before nodding. “Okay, so it starts out like this, I’d been out for the last couple days, searching high and low for any sign of those slippery ninja dudes!

Quick explanation, while Rin or Ren may claim to have the ability to swap forms between ponyta or blitzle, they do not. It's merely a trick they've been doing for quite some time, while the one does whatever they're doing, the other is close by, if for any reason they need to swap spots, they'll use either Flame Charge if Rin wants to swap with Ren, or Wild Charge if Ren wants to swap with Rin. They've been doing this for quite some time and have gotten good at it, so they tend to lie and say they're the same mon quite a lot.
Now for the rewards

I'm afraid that this would count as a Strike for the team, yes. If you just jotted down in the story where your team member went after the Sceptile that he was chased into an alley or behind a building or just anywhere where someone wouldn't have the potential to get hurt, like the Furfrou, then it would count as a Merit. As it is, there's nothing in the story showing that they actually left the area with the Furfrou, meaning that he was still nearby and potentially in danger. 'Chasing him to his current location' isn't quite enough. You'll have to actually mention a change of location. If you'd like to make a quick change so you can get the Merit you've got a week to do so, but otherwise I can accept it as it is right now and give you the Strike.
