I challenge DarkestLight (ref needed)

[Knight of Time]

Well DL, you've reffed quite a few of my battles, but the time has come for the two of us to have a battle here.

Rules:

3 on 3 (all at the same time)
You choose your first Pokemon
I choose my first Pokemon
You choose your second Pokemon
I choose my second Pokemon
You choose your third Pokemon
I choose my third Pokemon, and attack first
DQ: 1 week
Banned Moves: Attract, Substitute, Captivate, non-damaging healing moves (e.g. Rest, but not Giga Drain), Destiny Bond, Perish Song, Selfdestruct, Explosion, Grudge, Memento
Arena: Indigo Stadium, sand field (the sand makes Earthquake pretty much useless here, due to its thickness, but it's very easy to Dig through, it can support any Pokemon, regardless of weight).

Could we get a ref, please? I'd slightly prefer one who hasn't reffed a battle of mine in a while (old ASB included), like maybe T_M_L or Chris 2.0 if possible, please.

::The silent demeanor given off by Dl was purely uncharacteristic. He was being challenged? This meant someone wanted to test his prowess. Nervousness built up in is chest like a clog in an artery.

Stepping into the Sand Arena at the Indigo plateau, DL left his microphone and First Aid Kit with the receptionist. By his side today was the Methodical thinker, Wyndryde. A silent finger pointed forward, and Wyndryde silently walked out to meet Knight's first competitor head on.::

[Knight of Time]

I'm prepared to give your first choice a hard time, my first choice will be my female Ninetales, Siren.

[DarkestLight]

::A Ninetales. Rare! Even rarer was using a base form to counter that. A shake of his leg, and a small crustacean would scuttle out, clacking its pincers together. Raynar was ready!::

Raynar M Corphish

[Knight of Time]

I hope your second choice doesn't mind facing off against a Pokemon you know well, my Blissey, Venus.

[DarkestLight]

::Ugh. Pink things did bother him a bit. Too bad Venus would never be ready for the third choice. In fact, no one would be. Slow methodical plods could be seen, as a trail of smoke came from the left. Flamebisquick was here and ready to make some pancakes!::

Flamebisquick M Torkoal

[Knight of Time]

Your Torkoal better be ready for something that may annoy him a lot, my second choice is going to be my female shiny Spiritomb, Devia.

[Chris 2.1]

This is the lamest smack talk ever.

[DarkestLight]

o_o???

::Lame as it may be, Chris >p, DL noted that Kyle just stated that Devia was his second Pokemon, when obviously it was his third...was this battle really gonna be hard? Silently, he waited for attacks to be issued...::

[Knight of Time]

Oops, my mistake there, yeah, Devia is my third Pokemon, so no laughing at that.

I'll edit this post with my moves tomorrow, but can we agree not to use Toxic please DL? I forgot to add it to the banned moves when I first posted the topic, that's all.

[DarkestLight]

::A nod. He was just ready for attacks. But why was Captivate banned? In that defense, shouldn't Tickle and Growl and all moves that drop Attack be banned as well? >>::

[Knight of Time]

I asked for Captivate to not be used simply because it's another move that only works if used on a Pokemon of the opposite gender.

Okay, time to get this started.

Venus, immediately Safeguard yourself to stop any potential status changes, then Double Team. Finish with a big Water Pulse, in sphere form if it's raining, aimed for Flamebisquick, or if it's not raining, use a Rock Tomb on the Torkoal.

Siren, immediately create your own Safeguard as well, then use an Energy Ball on Raynor. Finally, use a strong Flamethrower, aimed for Wyndryde. But if a Water move is used on you, make the sun come out with a Sunny Day, but only on your second or third action.

Devia, start this round by Taunting your opponents, then use a Shock Wave on Raynar. Finish with a painful Silver Wind on Wyndryde, widening it if you have to.

Venus: Safeguard ~ Double Team ~ Water Pulse (Flamebisquick, if it's raining)/Rock Tomb (Flamebisquick, if it isn't raining)

Siren: Safeguard ~ Energy Ball (Raynor)/Sunny Day (if a Water move is used) ~ Flamethrower (Wyndryde)/Sunny Day (if a Water move is used)

Devia: Taunt (all three opponents) ~ Shock Wave (Raynar) ~ Silver Wind (Wyndryde)

[DarkestLight]

So here we go guys.

Wynd, you should be faster than Devia, so start Taunting first. That'll shut up that ghost. Then, Wynd, Snatch that Double Team away and make sure to keep Venus between you and Devia until the end of this round! Lastly, Wynd, you now get to have all the fun you want. Swords Dance up a bit, dancing so you are still keeping Venus in between you and Devia.

(However if Wynd is Taunted, Night Slash the living daylights out of Devia for as long as it takes.)

Raynar, back him up. Taunt Devia as well, so she can't focus with two different Pokemon hitting her with insults. Make sure you move between Siren and Devia as you taunt Devia...then Payback on Devia, and thank Siren and Devia after you do it too ! then using the cover of the Smokescreen, hit Siren with a Crabhammer to send her flying hehehehe.

Bisquick, we got Safeguarders, so we'll just stretch out a Yawn at all three of them. Flame, with Siren and Devia busy, you can set up a nice Smokescreen to piss off all of our opponents. Flame, we got an annoying Blissey coming after you with Rock Tomb. So, lets show why Blisseys aren't allowed to fight. If she's awake, Gyro Ball that idiot to shut Venus up after being Tombed. If she's asleep, then just trap Venus in a Fire Spin.

(If the Taunt hits, Flame's second attack will be Iron Tail to Devia.)

...Gawd thats alot.

Wynd: Taunt Devia (and the others, but mostly Devia)~Snatch Venus's Double Team while keeping Venus between her and Devia (<--If Venus is taunted, then Swords Dance)~Swords Dance
Sub: If Taunted-Night Slash Devia all damn day.

Raynar: Taunt Devia (and the others, but mostly Devia)~Payback on Devia-making sure to be between Siren and Devia~Crabhammer Siren

Flame: Try to Yawn all opponents~Smokescreen arena~Gyro Ball Venus if Rock Tombed--If Venus is asleep-Fire Spin
Sub: If Taunted: Iron Tail Devia for the appropriate action.

Lets go!
