MLG vs. Cynder: Aerial Asskicking! [Ref: nsmbwii]]

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Yes, a one on one aerial battle! The arena will be:



The Grand Canyon! Kinda speaks for itself, although there's a slight chance (12,5%) that a Sandstorm might whip up. Rain and heavy winds might make it difficult for the birds to remain airborne..

So yeah, only flying type pokemon. Levitating pokemon and hovers are allowed.

1vs1
Banned moves: Destiny Bond and Pain Split
Abilities on.
DQ: 5 days
I send out first, you attack first

I'll send out Ninke Li, my female Vullaby with the Overcoat ability.

[nsmbwii]

*flys by on hanglider* Got your ref! *splats on cliffside*

[Cynder]

I'll battle you! I'll send out my male Braviary Aikoku with Defiant ability.

Swords Dance ~ Rock Slide ~ Tail Wind

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Ninke, Taunt it while it tries to use Swordsdance. Then use Faint attack to avoid the rocks and re-appear behind him with a strike! Finish with Nasty Plot.

Just to be clear, those odds on sandstorm are per round.

Round 1

*Shows up in bandages* Ow... Going to feel that one in the morning... Here we are at the Grand Canyon in a 1 on 1 aerial battle between Cynder and MLG. The two trainers are standing on the sideline, send in their pokemon, a Vullaby and Braviary going by the names of Ninke Li and Aikoku. Aikoku kind of dwarfs his younger counterpart, but that probably won't stop Ninke!

Aikoku starts going into a zen state of mind, but loses this concentration when Ninke squawks out that he's just going to end up like those stupid Indians. Aikoku has a VERY fond respect of the native Americans and refuses to be insulted like this! He tries to slam into Ninke, but she dodges it in annoying fashion. (Ninke -3PP, Aikoku -7PP taunted 3 actions)

Screw this, it's time for action! Aikoku grabs some stones with his talons, and then tosses them at Ninke, But she mysteriously disappears! Aikoku wonders to himself where that pesky chick went, but he's then hit by an invisible force! The attacker reveals themself to be Ninke! (Ninke -6PP, Aikoku -7PP -6HP)

Cynder tells Aikoku to stop being so rash and use Tailwind, but Aikoku refuses to do so! Instead, he chooses to swoop at Ninke and slap her with one of his wings! (Aikoku -5PP, Ninke -6HP) Ninke is sent back a few feet, but then regains balance. She then starts to think... think nastyevilnogoodrotten thoughts... I would hate to know what she has in store for Aikoku... (Ninke -6PP +2 SPAtk)

*By the way... since two of Aikoku's moves were non-offensive, they were replaced with random offensive attacks because of taunt*

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Thanks for the quick reffing nsmbwii.

Air Slash! Then Flatter him. Then use Dark Pulse.

[Cynder]

Start off with good old Rock Slide, then make sure that you use Swagger before it can use Flatter, and then if it becomes confused use Toxic, if you become confused use Swords Dance.

Rock Slide ~ Swagger ~ Toxic/ Swords Dance

Round 2

Aikoku continues his assault on Ninke and hurls another barrage of rocks at Ninke. Unlike the previous time, these actually hit! Aikoku feels a bit better now he had hit Ninke now. (Aikoku -7PP no taunt, Ninke -19HP) As Aikoku calms down, he's suddenly hit by a quick blade of air. All fingers point to Ninke being the culprit. (Ninke -6PP, Aikoku -9HP)

Despite that attack, Ninke thinks she can get away with it using a bit of feminine flattery, but Aikoku swoops by, kind of surprising Ninke. Is Aikoku trying to attack? Aikoku swoops by again, as if feigning an attack... well Ninke refuses to tolerate this punk! She can't really think straight now due to her newfound rage. (Aikoku -4PP, Ninke -4PP +2 Atk, confused)

As if Ninke's life is frustrating enough as Aikoku spits out a blob of poisonous sludge at Ninke. It splatters over her, with some remnants falling down into the cliffs. (Aikoku -5PP, Ninke toxic lvl 1) Ninke starts to control her malicious aura, and then spreads around the area! The wave of energy goes through Aikoku, leaving his stamina diminshed. (Ninke -6PP -1HP, Aikoku -9HP)

[Cynder]

Rock Slide ~ Steel Wing ~ Rock Slide

If it attempts to use Toxic on you, use Steel Wing to block it since steel resists poison.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Use Attract, then show your male your Frustration! Twice.

If attract failed, try again.

Round 3

Aikoku goes for another attack with even more piles of rocks! They tumble on Ninke once more, dealing substantial damage! (Aikoku -7PP, Ninke -19HP) As Aikoku celebrates the attack, Ninke flies up to Aikoku. "What is she doing?" thought the eagle, which is then answered by Ninke getting puppy eyes. Add in a snivel or two and you got serious "Awww..." here. Aikoku can't help but think how cute she looks... mission accomplished... (Ninke -4PP -2HP, Aikoku infatuated)

Suddenly, Ninke goes into a massive state of fury, attempting to pummel Aikoku! Aikoku doesn't want to hurt her too badly, so instead of using his now metal wing as an attack, he uses it to block the attack mostly. (Aikoku -7PP -5HP +Def, Ninke -7PP -2HP)

Ninke continues to go on a uncontrollable temper tantrum, but instead of hitting Aikoku, she smacks into the cliffside. (Ninke -7PP -12HP) Despite that Cynder keeps on telling Aikoku to attack, he still does not want to hurt the cute little bird. Yeesh... first he wants to pummel the brat, now he's gone softie.

[Cynder]

Impress the cute little birdy with an Attract of your own, then make youself look tough with a Swords Dance. Then keep her nice and safe in a Rock Tomb where nothing else can hurt her.

Round 4

Despite that Aikoku doesn't want to hurt her, Ninke shows no mercy! She grabs some stones, then chucks them in Aikoku, making him stumble in flying for a bit. Guess she no longer is confused now. (Ninke -6PP -3HP no confusion, Aikoku -11HP -Speed) Even though he was slowed down a bit, Aikoku then realizes what he was doing... and he though she was cute! He finally snaps out of this love daze, and his determination to fight boosts his strength higher. (Aikoku cured of infatuation, +2 Atk) He decides to pull the same trick that was hampering him a bit ago, showing off his well-defined muscles to Ninke. Guess even a vulture has love issues, as Ninke realizes actually how handsome Aikoku is. (Aikoku -4PP, Ninke infatuated)

As Ninke swoons, oblivious to what MLG is saying, Aikoku starts to focus on how to take this foe down. He starts to study Ninke's weak points, and finishes knowing how to beat her. (Aikoku -6PP +2 Atk, Ninke -3HP) Suddenly, a sandstorm comes by and engulfs the area!

MLG continues trying to tell Ninke to stop acting so childish and attack, while Ninke keeps on squabbling that he should just accept their love. (Ninke -3HP) During so, Aikoku is determined to take down Ninke... literally. He picks up some stones, and then hurls them at her! They hit her backside, and she lands nearby MLG. It's obvious what happened, but she refuses to believe that those stones came from her crush, saying that they came from the storm. Whatever... (Aikoku -6PP, Ninke -20HP -Speed)

The sandstorm rages on, battering Aikoku several times. (Aikoku -3HP)

Round 5

MLG and Ninke continue to argue, but Ninke eventually gives in and decides to attack. She sadly zips by Aikoku, leaving behind a large scratch on his wing! (Ninke -5PP -4HP, Aikoku -6 HP) Despite the mercy that Ninke is doing, Aikoku is not going to give up! He hurls another pile of rocks into Ninke, crushing her in the process. It looks like she's down for the count this time! (Aikoku -7PP, Ninke -8HP)
