Will ref.

[Greyfox]

Well, I don't exactly have the field advantage, Darkly. Your ghosts have access to electric attacks, and I'm sure flowing down a valley of water is going to be very helpful for 'em. You've definitely thought this through.

For this match, I'll use Sovereign [F] and Leviathan [M]. Levi, start things off by using Iron Defense, followed by Bite and Flash Cannon -- target Atripe.

Reign, use Swords Dance and Shadow Claw. Then use Drill Peck -- target Script.

[DarkestLight]

..Actually. You just gave me an idea LOL I totally didn't think about electric current. But that would hurt everyone. >>....hRMMM

Ghosties. Criss cross them! Script-Snatch that Iron Defense. Atripe, Snatch that Swords Dance. Then cross cross again. Script, Calm Mind up, and then hit Reign with a Energy Ball.

Atripe, go and Thunderpunch Levi when he gets in close to Bite. Then we'll keep the Long distance game by sliding ahead and then Faint..aaah no that won't work..Ominous Wind. That will work.

Atripe: Snatch (Swords Dance)~Thunderpunch(L)~Ominous Wind(L)
Script: Snatch (Iron Defense)~Calm Mind~Energy Ball(R)

‡ Round 1 ‡

Ahh, water slides. Mix a little water, a smooth surface and a touch of gravity… and what do you get? A hell of a lot of fun is what! :O And if you thought there was anything better in the entire world than a Pokemon battle occurring on a water slide that loops and dives for all eternity, well, you were just plain w-r-o-n-g, my friend.

Climbing up one of the latters to the starting platform, DarkestLight makes his appearance alongside his Misdreavus and Dusknoir. The two spooks stare down Greyfox as he saunters up flanked by an Empoleon and a Blastoise. Quick as can be, the trainers queue up as they get ready to go down their chute while the Pokemon all nudge and shove to be the first to go down theirs. I, too, prepare to whisk my way down into an endless oblivion of motion sickness and pruney toes.

Aaaand we’re off!

As the Pokemon jet down their slides, it becomes apparent that, as hardcore swimmers, Leviathan and Sovereign look to be having an easy time maneuvering through every arc and bend of the track. Of course, then again, Atripe and Script aren’t faring too shabby as they control themselves through the quick turns. Sometimes, being amorpheous gas blobs has its perks.

Soon, Leviathan and Sovereign outpace their competitors. Quickly, Leviathan recedes into his massive shell which begins glowing silver. As he does this, Sovereign begins flailing her steel-lined fins. Er, it’s kind of hard to tell at these speeds, but my God, is that supposed to be some kind of dance? Regardless, the effects of these moves seems moot: from behind, dark energy hands lurch forward and Snatch up the stat boosts and transfer them to the ghosties.

The Water-types scowls. Bullies!

Atripe: <-5 EP; +2 Att>
Script: <-5 EP; +2 Def>

Leviathan: <-5 EP>
Sovereign: <-5 EP>

As the fighters enter into a straightaway, Leviathan unexpectedly eases up on the gas. As the ghosties approach, the Blastoise lunges at the nearest and sinks his pearly whites into his gaseous body. Since he’s so close, Atripe figures, hey, why not make the best of it? The Dusknoir socks Levi with a crackling ThunderPunch that deals some pretty potent damage. Sovereign and Script momentarily tense up, afraid the water current will cause them to suffer a nasty shock as well, but no worries. This water slide is infinite; that’s waaay too large a field for the electricity to diffuse into!

Meanwhile, Sovereign, too, slows down, allowing Script to get close enough for a well-aimed shadowy swipe. The move makes contact, causing the Misdreavus a fair bit of grief, but she decides to get over this tense moment by relaxing. Yes, as she careens down a water slide going a gajillion miles an hour. Nice.

Atripe: <-10 HP; -5 EP>
Script: <-8 HP; -3 EP; +1 SpA; +1 SpD>

Leviathan: <-14 HP; -7 EP>
Sovereign: <-5 EP>

Suddenly, the water slide track enters a series of tight, zigzagging turns, disorienting the Pokemon. Leviathan extends his arms and stubby little Blastoise legs, trying to slow down. He manages to control his speed through these fast turns just long enough to spew out a burst of sparkling energy at Atripe. Likewise, as Script eeks out ahead of Leviathan, the massive penguin hops on her front and jets forward like some kind of watersliding torpedo! She strikes the Misdreavus with her sword-like beak.

Script isn’t thrilled with that maneuver and responds by unleashing a shimmering blob of green energy at Reign. Fortunately, the birdie's Steel typing helps filter out some of the damage. Meanwhile, Atripe claps his hands and commands an eerie gale to assault our fun, innocent water slide! Killjoy! The move strikes Leviathan, spinning the Blastoise about.

Atripe: <-6 HP; -7 EP>
Script: <-5 HP; -4 EP>

Leviathan: <-8 HP; -4 EP>
Sovereign: <-8 HP; -5 EP>
