I chalange Darth! [Ref - Oslo] (Also needs HECKLERS)

[Ayeun]

Ok Darth, I challenge you to... a PIE THROWING contest!

That's right! PIE throwing!

Arena - A circus tent

Pokemon - 10 v 10, one at a time

Damage cap - NONE

Banned moves - Rest, pain split, Curse (Ghosts only), Perish song.

Special rules - Pokemon may only switch out using moves such as Batton pass, Volt switch, U-turn, ect. The audience (Yes, we are going to need audience participation) are equiped with the pies (Custard, Cream, Blueberry, Apple and Pumpkin) may heckle and throw pies at the pokemon in play. Each pie does a different effect, as listed below!

Pies:

Apple - Apple pies are not cooked properly. They will cause damage, and may cause POISON status (Poison tail level damage)
Blueberry - Blueberry pies are packed filled with berry goodness. They will cause damage and may inflict the PARALYZED status (Thunder bolt level damage)
Cream - Cream pies are COLD. They will cause damage and MAY inflict the FROZEN status (Icy wind level damage)
Custard - Custard tarts are soft and squish. They will cause damage and may cause SLEEP status (Secret power level damage)
Pumpkin - Pumpkin pies are HOT. They will cause damage and may cause BURN effect (Scald level damage)

Furthermore, Each heckler may only throw ONE pie, PER round, PER comment they make against one of the competitors. The REF may NOT throw any pies, and nor may the competitors.

[Oslo]

Will ref! This sounds like fun.

Do the hecklers get to choose their target when they throw a pie?

EDIT: 'Nother question. Do the pies have a type corresponding to the move mentioned in the description? Will an apple pie then be super effective against a Grass-type Pokemon and a blueberry pie completely ineffective against a Ground-type?

[Dogfish44]

*takes up the Heckler Position*

We do need to post for this job, right?

[Darth CookieMonster]

word. im down. less goo

[Ayeun]

Oslo - Yes, hecklers have to pick a target, and No, they do not have types (I just listed moves for damage equivalents). Also, abilities should be listed as ON. It should also be noted, you don't have to wait for heckling. Between your post and the next post you do is all the time the hecklers have to throw their pies (And make their comments). Also, no comment, no pie.

Dogfish - Yes, you will need to post your heckling.

Darth - I will send first, you can attack first.

I will lead with:



Duskull
Levitate

[Darth CookieMonster]

Alright Shade, my shiny Spiritomb. Lets go. Ability@Pressure

Start off with Calm Mind. Lets raise those stats a little bit. Then, use Dark Pulse. Finish with Confuse Ray.

If Double Team is used, use Ominous Wind.
If Status moves are tried, use Safegaurd.
If I am Taunt is tried, use Uproar to drown the sounds out.

[DarkestLight]

THIS MATCH IS GARBAGE! I WANTED IN! TO HELL WITH THIS, PUNK GHOST LOOKS LIKE A BUSTED LAVA LAMP :/ ::Throws a Pumpkin Pie at Shade::

[Ayeun]

Start off with Confuse ray, then use Shadow ball, and finish off with Blizzard.

‡ Round 1 ‡

Ahh, I positively adore circuses! They really are such a chipper place with children, popcorn, animals and creepy carnie folk with vaguely pedophilic grins. Such magic and merriment all around! Today, two steely trainers will go head to head here under the big top. Ayeun and her devious Duskull will face off against DCM and his spooky Spiritomb in a 10 on 10 battle extravaganza! Meanwhile, an assortment of hecklers stand behind a table loaded with pie. Hrm, what could that be about? Well, whatever! Let’s do this!

As the two Ghost-type Pogeys begin sizing one another up, two of our lovely hecklers leap upon their chairs and begin catcalling the battlers. Duskull and Shade exchange bewildered looks. Um, wtf? Suddenly, Darkly begins shouting something about lava lamps while Cynder makes a bold assertion about the proper colour of Duskulls. The two hecklers lob their pies, causing Shade to take a pumpkin pie to the kisser while Duskull succumbs to a pie plate full of custard. Yuck! The spooks mutter as they wipe pie off their faces, but hey, at least you guys didn’t receive a status!

Duskull: <-7 HP>
Shade: <-8 HP>

Okay, well, that was demeaning! Shade, the speedier of the two, closes his eyes and begins calming his mind. In retaliation, Duskull lets loose with a blinding flash of light that drifts toward Shade. Shade opens his eyes wide, trying desperately to revert to his alternate commands and erect a Safeguard, but it’s too late: the Confuse Ray strikes, causing his thoughts to scramble. Tough luck, my friend.

Duskull: <-6 EP>
Shade: <-4 EP; +1 SpA; +1 SpD; Con>

As birds circle his head, Shade does his best to pull it together as he cuts loose with his next attack. And he succeeds! A powerful burst of Dark-type energy collides with Duskull, knocking the wind (do ghosts even have… wind?) right out of our little spirit friend. In retaliation, Duskull hurls a swirling ball of darkness and shadows at his foe, which collides to reasonable effect.

Duskull: <-16 HP; -8 EP>
Shade: <-9 HP; -6 EP>

Shade grins devilishly, prepared to induce a little Confusion of his own! However, his plan becomes momentarily derailed when he suddenly starts banging his head against his keystone. Uh… well, good luck with that, buddy! Duskull cackles at his opponent’s Confusion. He does a spin, whipping up a freezing cold Blizzard that wafts into the tent and berates Shade with flecks of snow and ice.

Duskull: <-12 EP>
Shade: <-12 HP; -3 HP from Confusion>

Apple Pie at Duskull!

Missed this start, sowwy ^_^'

[RaZoR LeAf]

Pumpkin Pie at Duskull! That's for all the banners you made me change. YOU SUCK.

I'm not very good at heckling without being offensive.

[Oslo]

Lol, I would've thought you'd want to make Shade your target if excessive banner-changing was your motivation...

[Darth CookieMonster]

Haha yeah I agree

[RaZoR LeAf]

I'm clearly not paying any attention these days. I assumed Duskull was DCM's. I'll re-heckle him the next round.

[Darth CookieMonster]

Heckle away! I deserve it :/

[DarkestLight]

The Du stands for DUMBASS, DUMBASS! ::Cream Pie @ Duskull::

[Ayeun]

God damn it. I'm getting pied!

Skill swap ~ Dark pulse ~ Dark pulse

[chaos_redefined]

Ayeun told me to heckle. So, I'll throw a pie at Duskull.

And I'll make it Custard so she can sleep off the rage.

Also, YOUR OWNER IS A COMMANDING B****!!! SHE KEEPS TELLING ME TO DO THINGS LIKE THROW PIES!!!

[Darth CookieMonster]

Taunt her. I like my Pressure. Also, Imprison that Dark Pulse. Its a hassle. Finally, use Confuse Ray.

‡ Round 2 ‡

Did somebody say… pie? All of a sudden, DF, RL, RL and Chaos (which is these things is not like the other?) leap upon their seats and hurl pies of various sorts all at Duskull. Ahh! The humanity! Duskull is pinned to the ground under crumbled chunks of pie and tin plates. Shade approaches cautiously, curious about the fate of his foe. He clears the detritus so Duskull is visible. It becomes immediately clear that Duskull is frozen within an icy tomb; moreover, beneath the ice, its cheeks are tinged with purple.

Shade cackles. That certainly went well!

Duskull: <-26 HP; Psn; Frz>
Shade: <…>

With Duskull incapacitated for the time being, all eyes are on Shade who’s free to run rampant. Shade starts by giving his head a shake, ridding that pesky Confusion once and for all. He then Taunts Duskull (and has to speak up while doing so, of course, what with all that ice) and tells him that his battle prowess is worse than a Shuppet’s. Woah, man. That was ruthless.

Duskull: <Can’t move!; Tnt>
Shade: <-4 EP>

Imprison whosit? Upon hearing this command, Shade peers from his trainer to the Duskullcicle (that… doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue) he’s supposed to be fighting. Er… so how exactly is that supposed to work? Without any clear objective, Shade busies himself by eating some pie filling off the ground. Mmm… tasty!

Duskull: <Can’t move!>
Shade: <…>

As Duskull continues lying there like a useless lump, Shade decides to add insult to injury by blasting his foe with a blinding Confuse Ray. Because, you know, I’m sure that’s exactly what Duskull wants at the moment. Another status.

Duskull: <Can’t move!; Con>
Shade: <-4 EP>

From within the ice, Duskull is still alert and can therefore feel the Poison begin doing its thing <-3 HP>

Notes:

> Duskull will remain Taunted for two more actions (and FYI, the pie-throwing doesn't count as an action)
> Duskull is going to have to use a Fire-type move to thaw himself or else wait for the ice to melt naturally

[chaos_redefined]

Stupid ***** trying to have a ghost-on-ghost battle and not inviting me. Die, ****er.

*Goku, my Ambipom throws pumpkin pie at duskull*

[Cynder]

HEY! You beat me in the first of or five battles... Now eat PIE! TT.TT *throws a Pumpkin pie at Darth, but it misses and hits Shade instead*

[Darth CookieMonster]

Ram it with Dark Pulse until its thawed. Use Ominous Wind and Shadow Ball after.

[Ayeun]

Ok... Well, were fucked then...

Sit in your nice icy prison, coz your only 'fire' move is a status effect...

When the ice is gone, use a series of Sucker punches.

[Dogfish44]

Hey, DCM, this is for having to make me DQ you in our first match!

‡ Round 3 ‡

Pie time! Chaos, Cynder and DF each hurl a yummy dessert at our battlers. One of them hits Duskull while two collide with poor Shade. Fortunately for Duskull, the steaming-hot pumpkin pie thrown by Chaos successfully melts all of the ice covering our little spook. Yay, he’s as good as freed! Unfortunately for Shade, the other pumpkin pie thrown by Cynder is equally hot and ends up inflicting a nasty Burn. Oh no!

Duskull: <-8 HP; Frz no more!>
Shade: <-15 HP; Brn>

Okay, time to tango! Duskull manages to get the upper hand in terms of speed this time around, drifting close enough for a wicked-fast punch. In retaliation, Shade unleashes a concentrated blast of Dark-type energy which Duskull doesn’t seem to enjoy too much. Can you blame him?

Duskull: <-16 HP; -8 EP>
Shade: <-8 HP; -6 EP>

Once again, Duskull, the speedy little imp, rockets forth for another Sucker Punch... but stops. Instead, he tries chewing his arm instead. Um. 'Kay. Meanwhile, Shade summons a creepy-ass gust of wind which whips the flaps of the circus tent about. What with type effectiveness, STAB and Shade’s bolstered Special prowess, the move blows Duskull right into one of the tent poles with tremendous force. Ouchies!

Duskull: <-13 HP; -3 HP from Confusion>
Shade: <-4 EP>

Duskull clears his head of Confusion. Time for Sucker Punch numero trois! Right on target, Duskull strikes with another Dark-type punch. Does his fist ever wear out or what? Shade growls and fights back with another swirling ball of shadows, this one sending Duskull all the way to kingdom come. Better luck next time, pal.

Duskull: <-8 HP; -8 EP>
Shade: <-8 HP; -6 EP>

Shade suffers thanks to his pesky Burn <-3 HP>.

[chaos_redefined]

I wish to make a request to all the hecklers! We throw enough pies to tie the match. We need 5 pies for shade and 1 pie for duskull. More won't hurt the process. To start with, I'll throw a Blueberry pie at Shade.

This is for making the maths wonky so we have to get 6 people in on this! *Throws pie*

[Oslo]

*throws an imaginary pie at someone* D: Not the same.

[papabopp]

HEY I WANNA HECKLE!!! *throws pies at trainers!* LEMME IN!

[Ayeun]

As thankful as I am for the damage cap Oslo, it was stated that there should be no damage cap for this battle in the initial rules. Please can you re-do the round without the cap.

[Oslo]

Lol, my bad. Fixed! Your turn to release.

Chaos, you'll have to re-toss your pie. Papabopp, you're welcome to jump in and heckle whenever. Throw away! Just pick a Pokemon target and let 'er rip!

[chaos_redefined]

NO!!!! MY PIE GOT TORN FROM EXISTENCE DUE TO AYEUN CHANGING THE PAST!!!

*Throws pie at Shade*

[Ayeun]

Pappa, if you want in, pick a target, say something bad about that trainer, throw pie... Its that easy.

I will use Clapper, the shiny male Seel.

Aqua ring ~ Brine ~ Brine

Also, OSLO... How come your never on MSN anymore.

‡ Round 4 ‡

Ayeun calmly recalls her fallen Duskull and replaces the crimson spook with a chipper white sea lion. Aww, can you say adorable? Our hecklers, Chaos and DL, seem so taken by this little Seel that they decide to punish Shade with two tasty-looking pies! The baked goods smack the Spiritomb right in the face, dealing damage but leaving the spook unscathed in terms of statuses.

Clapper: <…>
Shade: <-15 HP; Brn>

Clapper kicks things off by creating a sparkling ring of water that hovers magically over the battle. Ooh. Purdy. Shade, however, doesn’t much care for this little bit of hocus pocus and demonstrates the kind of cool feats he’s capable of. Like, um, Taunting, of course! He growls a bit and starts ranting on and on about the hilarity of seal-clubbing. (“You just bonk their stupid little heads with a club; its awesome!”) This bit of cruelty expectedly throws Clapper into a rage.

Clapper: <-4 EP; Aqua Ring; Tnt>
Shade: <-4 EP>

Shooting Shade a dirty look, Clapper claps those ungainly flippers of his. Suddenly, a cascade of salty water bursts into the tent, drenching not only our lovely audience but also Shade. The move strikes with such ferocity, in fact, that it brings Shade within an inch of his life. Suddenly, the malevolent spirit begins cackling madly. He has a plan! A shadowy form slips out of Shade’s mouth and darts across the field, wrapping itself around Clapper. The Seel blinks, oblivious to what will inevitably go down.

Clapper: <-7 EP; Bonded>
Shade: <-13 HP; -10 EP>

Clapper simply does not get why Shade is cackling like an absolute lunatic right now. Even as a second foamy deluge surges into the circus tent, Clapper can’t understand why the Spiritomb is laughing his ass off while his health is ripped away by the Brine. As Shade shrinks away into his keystone, defeated, Clapper’s eyes suddenly go wide. The Aqua Ring fades. He falls.

Now he gets the joke.

Clapper: <-100 HP; -7 EP>
Shade: <-6 HP>
