The All-Comers Challenge (Refs: Darkly and Grey)

[DarkestLight]

Hrm. I'm thinking DQ .

If this is so, who's next KOT or MM? >> Cause that means I'm up to ref as well.

[Blademaster]

Sorry, C~Dub, but you're out.

Denny, Kyle, one of you guys come and post here so we can finally finish this shindig.

[Mew Master]

Hmm, aight, let's kick this thing off asap so DL can get some time off.

Let's go go Goooooodzilla! (M, Blaze)

Okay Godzilla, start off with a Dig, then unleash an Earthquake before Digging back up. If he jumps up to the rafters, then prepare yourself with a couple of Dragon Dances.

Dig (Down)~Earthquake~Dig (Up) (Subs: --~Dragon Dance~Dragon Dance)

Eh,... let's have a blast.

[Blademaster]

*Full Restore*

Rawk Hawk, let's do this. Use Quick Attack's speed to get up in the rafters before he can Dig. Then use Mirror Move to copy Dragon Dance's stat boost. Then get the drop on him with Stone Edge.

[DarkestLight]

Dig? wait does dig happen if he jumps up?

[Mew Master]

Yes Dig still happens if he Jumps up. It stays the same in my Subbed Actions, with Dig (Down) first followed by the subbed actions

[Blademaster]

God damn reading.

===Round 87(1)===

And whoa after some finagling, I'm back. Well of course I'm reffing Mew vs Blade! This should be a fast match, despite what everyone else thinks. The crowd is still as rowdy as ever, and even more so since Denny makes his grand entrance, riding Godzilla. Rawk hisses, and immediately runs for the ring barrier, jumping on it and shooting skyward. Godzilla barrel rolls to avoid, forcing Denz to jump off as it dives through the ring. Digging in here is kinda weird...

Godz: -3E ===//=== RH: -2E

Not pleased with not being able to visibly see his victim, Rawk merely watches the ground. At this height, its damn near impossible for Godzilla to get the jump on him. Godzilla meanwhile, boosts himself with a dance under the ring.

Godz: -3E +Atk/Spd ===//=== RH: -.-

Rawk...still waits, wrists flaring at a pace equivalent to his heart rate. But noooo Godzilla goes hidey hidey.

Godz: -3E +Atk/Spd ===//=== RH: >_o

Well that was... ...interesting.

Rawk, use Bulk Up. Then use Earthquake if he's still underground. Finish with Rock Slide.

If he comes out of his hidey-hole, swap out Earthquake for Thunderpunch.

Bounce away status attacks with Magic Coat.

[Mew Master]

Okay Godzilla, here's the plan. Speed's on our side, so's cover, so use a Swords Dance, wait until after his Earthquake to Dig Up, then Bide through the Rock Slide and send the attack right back at him.

Swords Dance~Dig (Up)~Bide

===Round 88(2)===

Godzilla, still invisible to the world(except me) is prolly flexing and making funny faces at Rawk. Rawk somehow feels he should get ready for the fight and Bulks up a bit more. He yawns as well, getting tired of waiting.

Godz: -3E +2 Atk===//=== RH: -2E +Atk/Def

Godzilla waits, and then feels the ground suddenly quiver. Impressive for a skinny armed fighter. As the ground starts to settle back in place, Godzilla bellows and shoots upward, wingtips acting like the tips of a drill.

Rawk stares as the ground stops quivering, and wonders if he took out the lizard. No such luck, as Godzilla tears through the ring and takes Rawk on a high flying ride for a bit.

Godz: -3E ===//=== RH: -8E/-20H*

Rawk pushes off of Godzilla and sqwaks, before kicking a rafter as he falls back to earth. Wood and steel pieces fall, emulating a Rock slide all over Godzilla. He takes the hit and plummets to the ground. In a strange twist though, Godzilla grabs Rawk's foot as he's plummeted to the ring and Bides his time. Upon impact, 'Zilla acts and pushes Rawk under him, pinning them both under the onslaught of debris. Ow.

Godz: -4E/-25H ===//=== RH: -7E/-20H

Both Pokemon free themselves, and Rawk shakes it off. Godzilla looks better off, but this is still anyones game.

Yar, I know I know... Been plotting..

Okay Godzilla, Keep some distance with an Earthquake, then an Air Slash, followed with Dragon Breath. If he starts coming at you with Rock Attacks, use your speed to dodge them with Aerial Ace,

Earthquake~Air Slash~Dragon Breath (Sub: Aerial Ace)

[Blademaster]

Rawk, as fast as you can, use Mirror Move to copy Bide. Then, use a combo of Bide's unleash and Counter on Air Slash.

This is gonna HURT...

===Round 89(3)===

The fire breathing dragon snorts, exuding flame from its nostrils as Rawk seems to sit down hurriedly. Godzilla finally rights himself and stamps the ground, causing an Earthquake. Though thrown about, Rawk zones out the noise of the crowd, and even the crowbar thrown at his head (heehee). Rawk winced, but kept the anger inside.

Godz: -8E ===//=== RH: -6E/-25H

Unsure what was up with that, Godzilla flapped his wings and swiped forward. His wings stayed out stretched as it rotated on his left foot, wing tips slashing Rawk's chest. Rawk-having reached the peak of his pain threshold, grabbed the second wingtip as it slashed him and pulled.

As Godzilla was yanked toward Rawk, Rawk spring off of his left foot, and kneed the joint under Godzilla's wing in a powerful release of that Bide attack.

Godz: -5E/-20H ===//=== RH: -10E/-14H

Godzilla barely stands up, completely hurting from that attack. He folds his right wing in and stomps forth, as Rawk stretches his arm. A swath of crippling blue flame washes over Rawk, who glares through the flames with piercing eyes. That Charizard was downright aggravating.

Godz: -6E ===//=== RH: -1H*

[Mew Master]

Blade, where ya at?

[Blademaster]

Brooding over my stupidity...

Rawk, use Stone Edge times three. Dodge ALL his attacks with Double Team. If he uses an undodgeable attack, Protect instead.

[Mew Master]

Huh.... well that's a fine kettle.

Godzilla, let's Aerial Ace him till he's dropped.

===Round 90(4)===

Knowing this match was gonna drain him down to the end, Rawk knelt down and created a barrier. In good time as well, as a Swift tail swipe came careening for his head. The Protective barrier deflected the blow.

Godz: -2E ===//=== RH: -8E

90 rounds for Rawk. Gotta clap to that! In any event, the hawk watches as Godzilla comes streaking down, and bashes him in the chest. Rawk tried to protect but the barrier fell short of its impenetrable promise. Rawk backflips and realizes it might be in trouble.

Godz: -2E ===//=== RH: -9E/-11H

Godzilla regroups with a hefty burst of speed, slamming into Rawk with his tail. Rawk smirks, as that Protective barrier came up, buffering the blow, and giving him just a little more survivability this time around.

Godz: -2E ===//=== RH: -8E

Rawk, use Stone Edge times three. Dodge ALL his attacks with Double Team. If he uses an undodgeable attack, Protect instead.

[Mew Master]

That's what I'm wondering...

[DarkestLight]

I know i know i'M FIXING IT. I couldn't log in from my phone this after noon when I reread it and saw the mistake.

[Blademaster]

Looks like it's fixed. Denny, you're up.

[Mew Master]

Hmm... thinking thinking... that and I didn't realize that they had errated the way Protect works...

Speed is still on our side, so Another Barrage of Aerial Aces should do it. If he tries jumping to the rafters, Combo it with Fly to get up there and lay the hurt on.

Aerial Ace~Aerial Ace~Aerial Ace (Sub: Aerial Ace+ Fly)

EDIT: And the damage from Aerial Ace seemed kinda low with a +4 ATK bonus against a 2x weakness target...

[Blademaster]

Well, it looks like we won't be winning this one.

Let's go out with a bang, shall we Rawk?

Endure his first attack, and counter it with a combination of Reversal and Last Resort.

===Round 91(5)===

Rawk settled his feet into the mat and focused his energy. It felt the slice of raw power from Godzilla's increased prowess, and yet he stood there, defiant through it all.

Godz: -2E ===//=== RH: -7E/-8H

Godzilla flew at the still standing Rawk, and tried that once more. Rawk grabbed the incoming appendage and twisted his body around in order to reverse the momentum of the blow, as well as throw himself into Godzilla. Before Rawk's impact could do anything damage worthy, Godzilla managed to flex his arm and keep Rawk from reaching him.

[Mew Master]

To wrap up this occasion, I quote one of my favorite shows:

"I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Never bet against the Monster King."

... I think this actually makes Godzilla 5/1 in matches.

[Blademaster]

Pfffft... Don't get cocky, pal. You only won because I screwed up. We'll fight again soon, and when we do, your tubby dragon won't win.

Kyle, you're up. Let's finally finish this.

[Mew Master]

Me? Cocky? You're the one who started this Ego-Fest. Too bad for you I turned your Rock Hawk into a flamin' chicken.

[Blademaster]

It's RAWK Hawk, you illiterate idiot. And this "ego-fest" is something I lost a lot of interest in a WHILE ago. I can't wait for it to be over. You had your moment in the spotlight. Now shut up and get out of my arena. You only ever even joined this because I needed more challengers for an even 20, anyway.

KYLE! WHERE ARE YOU?!

[Greyfox]

Dammit! Now I don't get the super special prize at the end!

[papabopp]

yeah i just read that. what is this superspecial prize?????

[Mew Master]

blade has not said yet. It could be points, or a Pokemon, or him being nice for a month, or a trip to Paris. Who knows?

[Knight of Time]

I didn't want to have to come to this, but in having to make the two hard choices of either dropping out of this battle or getting disqualified (I'm not battling because I don't have time for it still), I'm dropping out of the battle.

Sorry Blade, maybe some other time when my computer life isn't as hectic, I'll have the time to have a (regular) battle with you, perhaps when Black and White are implemented into ASB in 2011.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year guys, this is going to be my last post in ASB until I feel I am ready to come back and revive my team from its dormant state.

[Blademaster]

All will be revealed in good time... But first, we have to finish this.

I just sent Kyle a message. He has exactly one week to post here, whether it be to battle or to drop out and make room for the final contender. Come Hell or high water, this bout WILL be over by Christmas.

EDIT: You heard the man. There is one final spot open in this battle.

Spread the word.

[DarkestLight]

Wtf? Ok blade, lol.

[Greyfox]

Well... that was odd...

[chaos_redefined]

Well... an important question would be "Who hasn't battled already?" 20 people is most of ASB nowadays.

[Blademaster]

...I... honestly don't know...

...Well this is awkward...

[DarkestLight]

Wolfy :O! You haven't fought her, in like...ever I think. That would be kinda fun to watch :O
