Greyfox vs. MeLoVeGhOsTs! Ref: Rossymore

[Greyfox]

Okay, I've decided to give it another go. But seeings how I never can seem to hold onto this place, this match will be very, very simple and short and whatnot. One-on-one, standard arena and DQ time, no attack bans.

To begin, I'll be using Sovereign, my female piplup.

[Rossymore]

Reffed.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

I will test out Komumaru Sajin, my new male black Gyarados.

Start out with a Dragondance to boost your stats. Then use Earthquake and finish with Dragonpulse.

[Greyfox]

Oh, you're a fun one, MLG. Reign, let's wear him down slowly. Start with a combo of Aerial Ace and Toxic! Use Aerial Ace to climb onto the slithery sea serpent, then sink him deep with Toxic! With any luck, the impending earthquake will be less effective with you standing on him. Finally, drive down hard with Drill Peck!

AERIAL ACE + TOXIC : DRILL PECK

[Rossymore]

Ooh! Fun fun fun in the sun sun sun!

Attacks: Dragon Dance ~ Earthquake ~ Dragon Pulse

Yay! New match! Today we have two veterens in this match. Though ASB Vets they are, one will have to lose. Grey sends out his Piplup who looks ready for action. MeLo sends out his black Gyarados that can somehow survive without any water. The arena is just a bog standard arena, nothing special. Gyara starts with a stat boosting dance that makes him faster and stronger (somehow). Piplup seems not to care and blasts at Gyara, climbing up using the scales as ledges. She reaches the top and coughs up the remains of his last meal. He spits it onto Gyara who feels the sting and winces.

[Sovereign: -0% health, -13% energy]

[Komumaru Sajin: -0% health, -5% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-1%)*

With the annoying bird on top of him, Gyara can't do much in the way of an Earthquake attack due to him being part flying. His eyes glint as he has an idea. He simply falls. Piplup cries out as she's flattened by Gyara. Has anyone got a spatula?

[Sovereign: -11% health, -0% energy]
*Flattened*

[Komumaru Sajin: -0% health, -7% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-1%)*

Piplup picks herself off the ground and moans. That hurt more then it should have. She shook herself and flew at Gyara. She rotated and drilled a circle in Gyara with her beak. Gyara winced and fired a light blue pulse. That smacked Piplup to the ground...again.

Hmm...this next bit seems familiar to me. (-1%)

Side Notes

1) Huh. Looks like we didn't need the spatula after all.

2) Grey and Sovereign to issue attacks

[Greyfox]

It looked like Koju took some toxic damage, but his damage counter doesn't reflect that...

[Rossymore]

Hm...swear I added it in.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Reminder for Grey.

[Rossymore]

Isn't normal DQ time 1 week or something?

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Yes, he still has five days, but I'm just reminding.

[Greyfox]

Trip 'im up with Grass Knot! Then, Secret Power. Finally, use Aqua Ring.

GRASS KNOT : SECRET POWER : AQUA RING

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Use your superiour speed and attack and blast through it with Hyper Beam! Then, use Double Team and finish with Thunder.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Reminder for Rossymore.

Attacks: Hyper Beam ~ Recharge ~ Thunder

I'm not that late! XD Gyarados starts the round by starting ahead and using a hugely powerful beam that...thakes a few seconds to charge. Gyarados fires it and it slams into the penguin, nearly sending her flying. Gyarados pants deeply and rests for a while. Suddenly, some grass that randomly appeared tied up Gyara at his tail and made him fall to the floor. The shockwave could have been enough to set off another Earthquake.

[Sovereign: -16% health, -10% energy]

[Komumaru Sajin: -11% health, -13% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-2%), Recharging*

Gyara rested and breathed deeply. Piplup could have rested due to the sheer weight of Gyara but instead fired off a colourless beam. It hit Gyara but had no secondary effect, much to the anger of Grey. Gyara shakes himself, feeling not so out of breath.

[Sovereign: -0% health, -7% energy]

[Komumaru Sajin: -6% health, -0% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-2%)*

Now feeling much better, Gyara starts collecting up electrical energy and inceases its power. He then fires the electric beam at Sovereign who is zapped pretty hard. On top of that, she becomes paralysed...oh dear. Sovereign winces but surround herself in a veil of water. She becomes healed slightly. Gyara feels the sting of the poison.

Side Notes

1) I'm only a couple of days late!

2) Action two was unavailable so I skipped straight to Thunder

3) How does Gyara survive without water?

4) MeLo and Komumu...Komomara Sag...Komu to issue attacks

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

His name changed to Zaraki Kenpachi, though.

Taunt, Dragon Pulse, Thunderbolt.

[Greyfox]

Ignore his taunts by plugging your ears and closing your eyes; while he attacks, Bide your time and unleash a megattack!

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Lol, inspired by the tournament?

[Greyfox]

Perhapsiliy. I'm imagining my penguin pal closing her eyes and yelling "la-la-la" as loud as she can.

Attacks: Taunt ~ Dragon Pulse ~ Thunderbolt

Quicker this time! Sovereign begins by closing her eyes, putting her fins where her invisible ears where and began shouting 'LA - LA - LA'. Gyara puts on a wtf? face and tries to insult her...but he can't be heared.

[Sovereign: -0% health, -2% energy]
*Paralysed, Biding*

[Komumaru Sajin: -0% health, -3% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-4%)*

Sovereign opens her eyes and smiles, now that the attack is over. She begins to concentrate and takes the hit of a light blue circle that is fired at her. It stung a bit but this was the beginning of...the end! *cough*

[Sovereign: -8% health, -7% energy]
*Paralysed, Biding*

[Komumaru Sajin: -0% health, -5% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-4%)*

Still concentrating and glowing of the slight white variety, Sovereign takes a hit that really stings.A full electric bolt that zaps her through. She's already paralysed, however, so she doesn't get the full devastation of an electric type move (unlike my Blaziken ;_; ). She then glows completely white and fires off a white beam full of energy. This slams into Gyara, knocking her back a bit. That looked very painful. To top it all off, the poisomn struck...harder.

Side Notes

1) The damage Gyara would have taken would have been 48 had the DC of 40 not been there. Poison doesn't like DCs

2) Grey and Sovereign to issue attacks

[Greyfox]

Once more, Reign, I want you to use Bide for the duration of the round. If you go down, take him with you!

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Taunt it so that it can't use Bide. Then Relax, finish with Thunderbolt.

Next round shall commense! We begin with everyone's favourite penguin gearing herself up for a huge onslaught. It won't go as planned, trust me. She started to brace herself, ready for any attack that comes her way. However, Gyara starts insulting Sovereign and says that she's weak for using such a cowardly move. Piplup stops what she was doing and gives him the evils...but she couldn't do anything!

[Sovereign: -0% health, -0% energy]
*Paralysed, Taunted*

[Komumaru Sajin: -0% health, -5% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-8%)*

With the Piplup unable to do anything, Gyara relaxed. Piplup didn't relaxed and just stood there, fuming. His joints became free again.

[Sovereign: -0% health, -0% energy]
*Taunted*

[Komumaru Sajin: -0% health, +10% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-8%)*

Gyara sat back up and smirked. He started to charge the air and make it ecstatic. Piplup frowned, what was he doing? She soon found out. It came in the form of a lightning bolt that zapped Piplup pretty hard. She fell to the floor...but moved to a kneeling position. She was down, but not out! Gyara felt another sting. Stronger this time.

Side Notes

1) Next round will be the last. If either Pokemon lose more them 7% HP then they've lost.

2) MeLo and Komu to issue attacks

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Shock Wave ~ Dragon Rage ~ Shock Wave.

[Greyfox]

If this works, I'm gonna be amazed: Reign, as he spits out his Shock Wave, interrupt it by shooting off a Hydro Pump. If timed right, it should cause the electricity to disperse and (preferably) injur the gyarados instead! Then, use Aqua Ring again for some breathing room. Finally, finish it with Brine!

[Rossymore]

Ah yes, stop electricity with water...that makes some sense.

Attacks: Shock Wave ~ Dragon Rage ~ Shock Wave

Oh boy...! Grey is crossing his fingers as Gyara fires a bolt of electricity at Piplup. Sovereign tenses...then fires a Hydro Pump. It hits the Shock Wave but due to the Shock Wave's 'It never misses' nature, it's centre split so the Hydro Pump went through. It continued and hit Sovereign. The Hydro Pump hit Gyara...but unfortunately, it didn't do much.

[Sovereign: -14% health, -11% energy]
*Erm...penguin go bye bye?*

[Komumaru Sajin: -4% health, -5% energy]
*Attack +1, Speed +1, Toxicated (-16%)*

The Ref steps forward and concludes that Piplup is dead knocked out. He raises his flag.
"Piplup is unable to battle, the winner of this match is MeLo, congratulations. Better luck next time Grey"
