[Deck Knight]

3 VS 3

Arena: Castletop Courtyard

An arena on top of a Castle in a courtyard, with a huge fountain in the middile and a tower on each of the 4 corners topped with a Flame, there is much shruberry around... but Lo, a storm is picking up nearbye... The Castle Top is 600 Square Feet.

I choose first
You attack first
1 week DQ

I choose you! Tempest the Skarmory(M)!

[Deck Knight]

First, Read the rules, then go to the Approval Tower and get your team approved, Char(the nice but harsh head approver) will help you from there, Challenge denied, please read the rules.

The challenge still stands open.

[Matt]

I will ref this unless you dont want me to or you have someone else.

[The Muffin Man]

Hmmm, I accept your challenge...
Blaze, the Charizard(M) Go!!

Ok Blaze, Start off with a Double-Team attack! Next, fly up and hit it with a Flamethrower!! Finally, finish off by setting up a Reflect shield!

[Deck Knight]

This is going to be interesting... but flight is not your advantage here! Skarmory, blow away Charizards Copies with a Sandstorm, and then use Whirlwind to deflect Charizard and its Flamethrower into the fountain! and then use Sky Attack to break through Reflect, as well as do major damage. Charizard may be a big flamer, but you can douse his spirits! (Yes, I know, bad pun).

---Round 1---

This is Round 1. The people that are battling look around the arena for this battle. It is on top of a castle. It is in a courtyard. There is a huge fountain in the middle of the courtyard. And there are big towers on each corner of this arena, each one with a flame on top. The trainers now call out the pokemon and get ready for battle. “Go Tempest” Deck Knight called. “Go Blaze” Muffin Man yelled. The two pokemon go on two different sides of the arena. Then the trainers call out attacks that are going to be used in this turn. Then the pokemon get ready. Charizard roars and starts to glow. Then he started to get very blurry. Then clones of Charizard were on the field. Skarmory didn’t look like he cared and continued with his attack. He moved his wings and started to call on something. Then it happened. Sand came onto the field. It was blowing with the wind so it was unavoidable. Now all the clones that Charizard had were gone. Skarmory laughed and waited for the next round. Charizard growled and waited also.

It is now the next turn. Charizard was still mad about the clones, but he did his attack anyway. He opened his mouth and started to power up an attack. A giant fireball was being formed in his mouth. Skarmory saw this fire in his mouth. He started his attack also. He opened his wings then closed them over and over again. He was starting a whirlwind. On the other side Charizard was starting his attack. The fireball had been powered up to the fullest so it was ready. The fire shot out of his mouth and went straight for Skarmory. Skarmory had to finish his attack. But it was too late. The fire had already reached him. He was knocked and the whirlwind started without targeting. The whirlwind wasn’t targeted on Charizard. Instead it was blowing towards the fire. It hit the fire and the fire was flying towards the upper-left tower. It hit it and the tower collapsed. The fire on top was now out. Charizard growled and waited for a chance to get that Skarmory. Charizard was hit with Sandstorm.


Charizard was very mad now. A lot of his attacks were deflected. Then he got an idea. He was going to use his move and get back on that Skarmory. His hands started to glow. He was powering up something, but it was unclear. Then something happened. A shiny shield was in front of him. Skarmory didn’t care. He started his attack anyway. He started to glow. He was glowing red. He kept powering up this attack. It looked like it was going to be very powerful attack. Charizard was laughing behind the shield. Finally, the attack was done powering up. Skarmory turned into a fiery bird and flew straight for the Charizard. The shield was blocking Charizard, but Skarmory was still flying towards him. He crashed right into the shield and the shield broke. Charizard gasped as Skarmory came for him. He hit him in the stomach and he flew back a little. The move was powered down do to breaking the Reflect. The Charizard got back up and growled as the Sandstorm ripped threw him. Skarmory flew over to his side and waited for the next attacks.

Skarmory, Charizard has deadly flame powers, which we must avoid at all costs! Take into the air and use Agility first to speed up and then use Detect, but if Charizard tries Sunny Day use Sandstorm again instead, finally, use Swift to fire into the Sandstorm and hit Charizard!

Agility, Detect/Sandstorm, Swift.

[The Muffin Man]

Ok Charizard, try and aim a Fire Blast at Skarmory! And try and aim a bit ahead of Skarmory. Next, Use Sunny Day to keep it from Detecting! Finally, Sunny Day again if it uses Sandstorm. If it doesn't, use Counter to knock some Swift stars back!!

[Charizard04621]

A reminder to all that Clear Skies and Sandstorm pretty much coexist... You can have sand flying around under a cloudless sky.

If this were bumping.... it is.

Round 2


This is round two in this battle between TMM and Deck Knight. The arena is covered is sand, and there are a lot of clouds in the sky. There is barly any sun at all. The sand is still blowing. The pokemon get ready, and wait for the attacks to be called. When they are the pokemon start to use them. Skarmory stands still. Then he starts to glow. Finally he starts to run. The running was very fast. Charizard saw that he was running, so he did his attack. He opened his mouth, and started to power up his attack. This attack was going to take a little bit to power up. But Charizard had a little time. Skarmory was still running around. He was dodging the obsticals in his way. Finally, Charizard was done powering up this attack and shot it out. The attack was in some sort of shape, and it was fire. The fire was shot out ahead of Skarmory, and Skarmory got hit by it. Skarmory fell to the ground. He was a little hot from the fire, but still ok. He got up and looked at Charizard. Charizard just laughed. But his laughter was stopped since the sand was still blowing. He started to yell until it was done.

Skarmory was pretty mad that his agility was stopped right before it was done running. Skarmory was about to start his next attack but Charizard started his. He moved his wings some and started to do something. He looked up towards the sky and started to call on something. Finally, a sun came out between the clouds and the sand. The sand then stopped and the clouds went away. It was now very sunny. Skarmory saw this and did his attack. He moved his wings some also. This time the sun disappered in the clouds. The sand started again. Charizard roared as the sand cut threw his body. When the sand stopped blowing he stated to smile, because he had stopped the other attack.

Skarmory was mad, since his other attack was stopped. He didn't want this anger to go to his head though. He attacked. He started to power up something. Stars appeared infront of him. He then punched the stars so they would hit Charizard. Charizard saw the stars coming towards him, but he couldn't do that much of anything. He waited as the stars ripped threw him. He let it him, because he wanted to use his next attack without fail. When the stars passed him, he started his attacks. He looked up to the sky, to get the sun to come out. Finally, the clouds passed and the sun came out. The sun shown down and Charizard smiled. He liked messing up Skarmory's plans.

Ok, Charizard. Try and time Skarmorys movements and hit it with a Flamethrower. Next, Use Detect. If he doesn't attack you, use a Swords Dance. Maybe your spinning can repel some sand. Finally, finish off the moves with the fabeled DRAGON RAGE!! That's right, Blaze, show this Skarmory you're DONE fooling around.

[Deck Knight]

Alright Skarmory, time for a little defensive + offensive play. Start by boosting into the air with Fly, and get evasive, then boost your speed with another Agility... after this, let Charizard waste his energy with Dragon rage as you play defensive, and then, shoot up into the air and then plummet down and cut through Charizard with Breaker Blade(sig. move)!

Round 3

This is round 3!! The trainers call out the attacks to be used and the pokemon get ready to battle. Charizard growls and starts his attack. He opens his mouth and starts to power up his attack. You could see the fire ball in his mouth. Skarmory saw what he was doing, and he figured he will play a little trick of his own. Skarmory was waiting for Charizard to unleash his attack. Charizard finally was done powering up, and let out the fire in one big stream. Skarmory saw this fire coming and he jumped into the air. The fire came right before he flew up high enough, so it scalded his feet. Skarmory screamed as he flew into the air. Charizard started laughing as Skarmory came down from the sky. He almost fell to the ground from the pain in his feet. Charizard laughed, while Skarmory was still in pain.

Skarmory growled at the Charizard. Charizard just grinned as he saw Skarmory’s black feet. Charizard then remembered that he is supposed to be attacking. He started to spin. He was spinning in place. Skarmory just looked at him in confusion. Then swords appeared in front of the Charizard. Skarmory didn’t really care what Charizard was doing, so he started his attack that he was ordered to do. He started to run. But he was unable to do so, since he feet were scalded. He stopped and tried not to fall onto the floor. Charizard was still spinning. Finally Charizard stopped. He looked a little dizzy, but he also looked stronger.

It was time for Charizard to show off his great power. He opened his mouth and started to power up something that might be really good. Then you could see a green ball in his mouth. Skarmory noticed this. He started to get ready for this attack. Skarmory was bent over ready to fly up. The green mist shot out of Charizard’s mouth and shot right towards the Skarmory. Skarmory jumped into the air. But still he didn’t get to get away from the mist. It hit his wounded feet. He ignored the pain and continued to climb into the air. When he was up high enough, he started to come down. He opened his wings, and continued falling towards the Charizard. Charizard looked up right when Skarmory was over top of him. He gasped as Skarmory sliced right down his side with his wings. He yelled as blood began to come out. Skarmory flew back over to his side and looked at Charizard. Charizard yelled more, as the pain increased. Skarmory laughed, but his feet were still hurting him.

Heh heh, Now Skarmory, time to take advantage of this! Use a Mud Slap to cover his wound in bacterial dirt, and then use Toxic to poison him directly, and let the poison and bacteria do thier work, then, finish up with a Sandstorm to blast more wounds in Charizard, don't let the lizard heal himself, just keep attacking his wound before he can succesfully counter!

Mud Slap, Toxic, Sandstorm

[The Muffin Man]

Charizard, first things first, use a Rock Slide(pulling up stones from the floor) and fling them through the mud! Next, use Detect to avoid the toxic goo!! Finally, use Fireblast and try and blast Skarmory and turn whatever sand you can to glass!!

Round 4


This is round 4 in the battle between Deck Knight and The Muffin Man. The trainers call out the attacks and get ready for the round. Skarmory starts his attack. He starts to dig underground. He kept digging untill he found some mud. He put it at the edge of the hole and was about to kick it. But Charizard saw this. He started his attack. He didn't want that sand to go into his wound. He moved his wings some, and waited for the sand to come. He was ready. Skarmory moved his wounded foot and kicked the mud as far as he could. The mud was flying straight for the Charizard. Charizard moved his wings somemore and rocks came out from the ground. The rocks and the mud were going to hit each other. The mud was still flying towards the Charizard, and so the rocks were heading for the mud. The rocks hit the mud, and the mud disappered. The rocks hit the ground and busted. Charizard smiled.

Skarmory was pretty mad at that Charizard again. He seemed to be getting on Skarmory's nerves. Skarmory then thought of a great plan to stop him. He was going to use toxic and hit his wound. Charizard had no idea what Skarmory was planning, but Charizard still had an idea of his own. Skarmory started to power a little attack up. He opened his mouth and started to power the attack up. Charizard saw this and used his attack. He started to glow. He closed his eyes and started to zoom in on the Skarmory. Then he found out what the next attack was going to be! He figured out it was going to be a Toxic!! Charizard had to move out of the way before it hit him. Skarmory was finally done powering up this attack and released it. Purple goo came out of his mouth and went for Charizard. Charizard saw this coming, so he decided to use his knowledge to get out of the way of this attack. He moved a little and got out of the targeted spot. The toxic fell on the ground, and a puddle of toxins were now there. Charizard again smiled. The Sunny Day Wore off.

Skarmory was really mad now. He decided to ignore this so called anger and attack the Charizard. He roared and moved his wings. Then clouds came in. It covered the sun up. All that was seen was darkness, and a few specks of light. Then the sand started. Charizard saw this sand starting so he did something of his own. He opened his mouth and started to prepare. The sand was really roaring now. It wouldn't be long before it was powerful enough to hit the Charizard. But Charizard had other plans for the sand. He opened his mouth and let out a fire attack. Yet as soon as he opened his mouth the sand hit. It wasn't as powerful as it should be, but effective. Charizard ignored the sand hitting him and continued with his fire attack. The fire was in some kind of shape. Then the fire hit the sand in one big blast. The sand started to shimmer as it fell to the ground. It was now glass. The glass fell to the ground and busted everywhere. Some of it was at Skarmory's feet and others were at Charizard. The glass cut Charizard's feet slightly, but the glass further wounded Skarmory's feet. Skarmory yelled in pain. The glass was everywhere now, and the toxic puddle near the Charizard. Both pokemon are panting.

[The Muffin Man]

Ok, Charizard, lift yourself into the air(and try to blow a safe spot open for one of your partners) and fire a blast of Flamethrower into Skarmory. If he attemps an attack, try a Fireblast as soon as it gets close. Next, Soar up a bit and Body Slam onto Skarmory!! If it tries to move out of range, Fire-Spin it instead!! Finally, if you slammed it into the glass with Body Slam, fly over to a safe spot and set up a Reflect. If Fire Spin was used, then most of the glass is probably melted into a bunch of jagged spikes. Scary Face, and lower it's speed, and maybe startle it onto the spikes below!!

[Deck Knight]

the air is not your advantage here...

So he wants a blow, Skarmory, we will give him one. Use Whirlwind to blow him where the Mud and Toxic Goo is, so that we can poison his wound and debilitate him. If he lands in the wrong spot(i.e. not on the glass shards and Toxic Goo and all that other stuff). Use a Toxic on his wound, the poison will weaken his immune system and he will feel faint... If he does however land in the goopy poison, then I want you to keep him down below you by using a Sandstorm. Charizard may be fast in the air, but he can't see during a Sandstorm, and it will aggravate his wound even further. Finally, don't let Charizard scare you by using his Ugly Mug, instead, Use a Mud Slap(grip some Mud in your talon and carry it up and fling it if he's in the air.) on his face and blind him. if he's in the air when he does Scary Face, he'll fall like a ton of bricks, right into the Jagged Spikes below!

Whirlwind into Toxic Goo, Glass Shards, Mud, etc. Toxic(if the wound isn't hit with the poisonous goo)/Sandstorm, Mud Slap in the eyes.

Round 5

This is Round 5!! The trainers call out the attacks to be used in this round. The pokemon then get ready to carry out these attacks. Charizard starts to power up a move that he was ordered to use. He kept powering up this attack. Skarmory could see this fire forming in his mouth. He started his attack that he was ordered to do. He started to move his wings a little. He didn't want to start his attack until Charizard was done with his. He could now see Charizard almost done. Charizard hopped into the air, and shot out a big flamethrower towards the Skarmory. Skarmory could see this fire coming towards him, so he let out his attack. A giant tornado came out of his wings. The tornado went towards the Charizard, and the flamethrower. The flames went into the tornado, and the flames then spread across the arena. The flames hit Skarmory, and the Charizard as well. The flames also hit the glass below. The glass turns to spikes as the fire flys over the glass. The glass shimmers in the light. The whirlwind continued across the arena. The whirlwind got to the Charizard. Charizard got trapped in it, and was being carried across the arena. He flew over the puddle of poison. The whirlwind went over the puddle as well. The poison shot up the whirlwind. The poison got to the Charizard, and went into his mouth. The poison went into his body, weakening him further. The whirlwind stopped, and he fell to the ground. He hit the ground and gasped, as the pain shot threw his body. He pushed himself up, and stood there, shaking. The poison hasn't fully set in, in the Charizard's body, so he is not effected by the poison this turn.

Charizard was gasping for breath. The poison was really setting in now. It was in his blood stream. He couldn't stand it. Skarmory stands on the other side of the arena, breathing strong. Charizard could see the Skarmory breathing strong. He laughed a little. He may be poisoned, but he could still defeat the Skarmory. He moved a little and hopped into the air. He hovered a little and went over to where the Skarmory was. Skarmory looked up into the air. He could see the Charizard hovering over him, waiting for a time to strike. Skarmory figured this a time to strike. He opened his wings a little, and started to move them a lot. Clouds came in and covered up what little sun was there. Then something started. Sand started to blow. Charizard could feel the sand picking up. He started to fall right towards the Skarmory. He was using his attack. He flew down, as the sand picked up. Charizard hit Skarmory on the head, and the sand picked up more. Charizard was going towards the ground, as the sand hit him in the side where his wound is. The sand went inside this wound, and made the pain worse. He yelled as his concentration was cut off. He couldn't get to the ground saftley. He fell onto some of the jagged spikes. He yelled as the spikes went into his skin. He yelled more, as the pain increased. He picked himself off the ground, as poison effected his health. He yelled more. He stumbled back over to where he stands, in the arena, and stood there. Skarmory could see he was in pain.

Charizard was pretty mad now. He was in a lot of pain too. He stared at the Skarmory. The Skarmory was pretty tired. He had summoned another sandstorm. But the Charizard was worse. He had blood running out of his sides, as sand and poison are in his body as well. He decides to use his next move before the sand comes and the Skarmory gets more hp off of the Charizard. He started to run into a corner. He moved his arms a little. His arms started to glow. Then a golden wall like thing appeared in front of him. He laughed. He must of thought it would protect him against some of Skarmory's moves. Skarmory looks at the Charizard, and its golden wall. He picks up some mud from the ground, and hovers towards the Charizard. He throws the mud at the Charizard, but the mud didnt do a lot of damage. The sand roars as it flys towards the Charizard. That didn't do a lot of damage either. Finally, the poison in Charizard came back. He was hit by it. He yells in pain, as it goes through his body more. Skarmory hovers back to his side of the arena as he waits for the next round. He breaths strongly.

Alright Skarmory, time to catch our breath, Fly on top of the pillar the flame was blown out, and then sit there, catch a breath, Charizard can't keep that shield up forever. Then use Swift to weaken his shield, and finally, we want to stay awake and alert, so take another turn to rest. If Charizard attacks you during this final turn, use Detect.

fly up to pillar with no flame on it, and wait, Swift, Wait/Detect.

[The Muffin Man]

he wants to play a waiting game, eh? Ok, Charizard, punch the Earth around you to quake the pillar, perhaps collapsing it. Next, use Protect to deflect that Swift attack. Finally, if he wants to rest, use YOUR Rest attack, and purge your body of those toxins!!

Round 6


This is round 6!! The trainers call out the attacks that are going to be used, and the pokemon get ready for battle. Skarmory stares at the Charizard, and its reflect shield. Charizard laughs at the Skarmory. Skarmory frowned. He decided to rest now. He started to fly up to a pillar. This certain pillar had no flame on it at all. It had blown out. Skarmory landed on top of the pillar, and sat down. He looked down at Charizard who was now looking up at the Skarmory. Skarmory laughed, as he thought of the Charizard trying to hit him with an attack. Then he heard something. It was a really loud sound. A sound of an earthquake. Charizard was pounding the ground. The pillar started to shake. Skarmory stood up. He started to shake too. He looked down at the ground, and saw the ground starting to come up. Then he saw the pillar starting to crack. He didn't know what to do. Before he knew it, the pillar cracked and busted. Skarmory fell to the ground. He landed on some of the rubble, but he soon got up. He looked at the Charizard and growled. His back was really hurting now. Charizard is effected by the poison. The sandstorm blows, and hits the Charizard.

Skarmory was really mad now. The pillar had been distroyed, and his back was now really sore. He was going to teach that Charizard a lesson. He moved his wings some. Then little yellow stars appeared in front of him. These stars were the weapon. He moved his wings some more, and hit the stars. The stars flew right towards the Charizard. Charizard saw these stars, and did a little trick of his own. He held out his hands, and started to power up something. Little stars appeared in front of his face. Then a clear, protective, film went in between the stars. The swift attack went right into the shield Charizard just put up, and the swift was deflected. The stars from the swift fell to the ground, and disappeared. The protect disappeared as well. Skarmory glared at the Charizard with a lot of anger. Charizard just smiled back. Charizard is again effected by poison. The sandstorm hit Charizard again.

Skarmory was getting too mad. He decided to rest a little bit like he was told. He sat down on the ground to catch a breath. He looked at the Charizard, and smiled. Skarmory wasn't as tired now. He was regaining energy. Charizard saw this time a perfect time to do his attack. He layed down on the ground, and fell asleep. Skarmory looked at the Charizard as it started to sleep. Charizard is healed of the poison he once had. He also gains HP. Skarmory could see him gain more HP as he rests. Skarmory stays down and waits for the next round. Sandstorm hits Charizard, and then it stops. The skys clear, and there is no more storm.

Round 7


This is round 7!! The pokemon get ready as the trainers call out the attacks that are going to be used during this round. The trainers finish, and the pokemon start. Charizard is sound asleep on the arena. He attacks anyway. Skarmory looks at him like he is crazy. Charizard can't see Skarmory looking at him, but he is thought he would. Skarmory couldn't even notice that Charizard was using a special move that can let a pokemon attack while they are asleep. Skarmory looks like he doesn't care. Charizard continues with his attack. He opens his mouth and sends out purple goo towards the Skarmory. Skarmory saw this toxic coming towards him, so he did the move he was ordered to do. He moved his wings and flew up into the air. The poison that was going to hit Skarmory, has fell on the ground. It is now a puddle where the poison is. If Skarmory falls in it, he will be effected by the poison. Charizard is still asleep. Skarmory flies down and slams into the Charizard. Charizard gasps in his sleep but doesnt wake up. The reflect disappears.

Skarmory laughs at the sleeping Charizard. He thought it was really funny that a Charizard would sleep through this battle. Charizard still sleeps, but he does attack. He opens his mouth and starts to power up a move. Fire starts to form in his mouth. This fire is now ready to be shot. He opens his mouth somemore, and the fire shoots out at Skarmory. The Charizard was using Ember!! The fire flew right towards Skarmory. It hit Skarmory in the stomach. Skarmory yells as the fire disappears after all the damage. Skarmory frowns at the Charizard and does his attack. He runs towards Charizard and starts to peck him. He kept pecking him. With every peck, Charizard gasped. Finally, Skarmory was done. He went back to his side of the arena, trying not to get into the toxic poisoning that was beside him.

Skarmory was slowly killing the Charizard, but Charizard is still sleeping and slowly recovering HP. Skarmory couldn't stand this. Charizard moved again. He was attacking. He opened his mouth and started to power something up again. When he was finished powering up this attack, he let it out. Green mist shot towards the Skarmory. Charizard was using Dragon Rage!!! The mist got to the Skarmory and hit him in his stomach. Skarmory gasped for breath but he didn't for long. He easily got his breath back and started on an attack of his own. He runs towards Charizard and starts to peck him again. He pecks him 3 times and runs back to the place he was standing. He watchs as the Charizard gasps for breath. Charizard wakes up but gasps for more breath. He faints and falls to the ground. Charizard is gone.

How exactly am I at 8% health if I gained back 10%? That's impossible. I'd have to have fainted(-2%) for that calculation to work. did you mean 18%?

[Matt]

Well I cut back the damage a little in the battles I ref, but if you want it to faint thats fine too.

[The Muffin Man]

...you said I healed 10%. How do I gain 10% and stop at 8%?

[Matt]

Ok. I edited the reffing. Charizard fainted. Sorry for the trouble.

[The Muffin Man]

...gee I'm sorry for pointing out your not perfect. Just because you don't know masic math, I don't think I should suffer.

[The Muffin Man]

Bah...Raichu, let's teach this jerk who's boss...

[Deck Knight]

Don't let that overfed rat intimidate you Skarmory, ypur no jerk, but lets show him your a real "windbag".

Start with a Whirlwind to blow Raichu off the roof! Then use a Sunny Day to prevent some miraculous Surf attack saving it. Make sure you use it after a Rain Dance, if Raichu uses one. Finally, use Rest to heal yourself.

Whirlwind Raichu off the roof, Sunny Day(if Rain Dance is used, wait till after its use) Rest.

[The Muffin Man]

Overfed rat?

Let's show that windbag what "Overfed rats" can do. Use Agility to get around it(be careful, of course, for that glass, which Skarmory might land on if he plans on flapping)

Next, let him use a Sunny Day, but use your Agility(the attack used beforehand, and the actual jumping ability) to hop onto his back and Thunderbolt. Now, since he's been ordered to substitute Sunny Day when you use Rain Dance, Summon up a some rain!

Agility ~ Thunderbolt ~ Rain Dance

[Prodigy]

Some speculation on my part..

I haven't been paying much attention to this battle, nor have I actually read any of the reffings, and the issue seems to have been.. resolved.

But as far as I can tell, Link 10's reffings have Rest heal 10% health every round for X rounds. In the case in question, Charizard healed that 10% earlier in the round, and a subsequent attack dropped him to 8% health. Had he not been regenerating, he would have fainted, but because he was, he didn't. (At least until you complained and Link 10 changed it.)

Oh.. how does Raichu get Fire Punch?

[The Muffin Man]

*throws smokeball*What about Firepunch?

[Prodigy]

It appears to have turned into a Thunderbolt.

Round 8


This is Round 8!! A new pokemon is called out onto the field. "Go Raichu" The Muffin Man said. A Raichu pops out onto the arena. Skarmory looks at the Raichu. Skarmory thinks he might be an easy opponet. The Raichu looks at the Skarmory. Raichu thinks the same think that Skarmory was thinking. Skarmory started his attack. He thought he might be able to get an early lead by this. He started to move his wings. Raichu saw Skarmory's wings being to flap. He had to keep watch. He started to move his feet up and down like he was about to run away. Skarmory continued his attack. The more Skarmory flapped, the more wind that stirred up. The wind got firce, as a big tornado like thing appeared. Raichu saw this tornado and continued running. Raichu started to run really fast. Fast enough to get away from that tornado. The tornado went into a wall and one of the towers broke and fell off. The broken tower piece fell off the castle. Skarmory growls a little and watchs as the Raichu comes to a stop.

Skarmory wasn't going to get too mad at this Raichu. He was going to win. He started his attack. He looked up towards the sky. Skarmory looked like he was trying to summon something. Skarmory kept looking into the sky. When he had finally stopped, the sun was begining to shine. The glass that is on the arena is shimmering. Raichu starts his attack. He puts up his hands. He starts to look like he is trying to power up his hands. Nothing happened. The move that Raichu is trying to use, is not a move that Raichu knows. Skarmory giggles lightly. Raichu turns around towards the Skarmory with a frown on his face. He was going to get back at that Skarmory.

Skarmory was still laughing at the Raichu. Skarmory thought it was funny. Raichu, on the other hand, didn't think it was all that funny. Skarmory was really tired again. He decided he would rest some. Skarmory pushed himself to the floor, as he slowly fell asleep. Skarmory is now asleep for 4 turns. Raichu figures it is a time to strike. He puts his arms high above his head. Clouds begin to come into the arena. The clouds cover up the sun. Then the rain begins to fall. The rain falls onto the arena. It falls on Skarmory too. Skarmory moves a bit in his sleep but doesn't wake up. Raichu looks like he has a plan for the next round. Raichu stands there thinking about what to do with the sleeping Skarmory.

Raichu, use Gigavolt* until Rain Dance is out of effect! When it ends, if it's by a Sandstorm, just use another Rain Dance! Otherwise, Thunderbolt


Gigavolt recipe - 3 Thunders.

Subs - use Rain Dance is Sandstorm kicks up. Thunderbolt if Rain stops on its own.

[Deck Knight]

Skarmory, I want you to use Sleep Talk X3, think about anything defensive, Protect, Detect, even Agility, just try to evade Raichu's attack. If by some miracle you wake up before it hits you, or you safely guard against it, your attacks are as follows. Whirlwind the Raichu off the roof, then Sunny Day.

Sleep Talk(go for Protect/Detect), Sleep Talk/Whirlwind Sleep Talk/Sunny Day

Round 9


Round 9 starts now! Skarmory is sound asleep while the Raichu is ready for battle. The trainers now call out the attacks that they want their pokemon to use. As soon as they are finished calling out, the pokemon start to battle. The rain is falling down onto the arena. It's perfect for electrical attacks, and thats just what the Raichu is going to do. Raichu moves a little and starts to power up an electrical attack. Little sparks are going around his body. Raichu continues to power this move up. Skarmory is still asleep. Finally, Raichu finishs powering up the attack and lets it out towards the Skarmory. Skarmory starts an attack. Skarmory gets up and starts to run out of the way. The electrical attack hits the ground. It busts and the electrical energy disappears. Skarmory stops running and falls back to the ground. He is still asleep.

Raichu growls and starts to power up another electrical attack. The rain falls down on Raichu's head. The rain is falling on Skarmory too. Raichu continues powering up. When Raichu is finally done powering up this move, he lets it out again. Skarmory starts another attack. Little stars appear in front of Skarmory. Skarmory hits the stars and they head towards Raichu. As soon as Skarmory hits the stars, the electrical attack hits the Skarmory. Skarmory yells as the pain flows through his body. Raichu laughs as the electricity hits the Skarmory. The stars hit the Raichu. Raichu is pushed back a little. Raichu goes back to where he was and waits for the next turn. Skarmory stops moving for a little. Then his eyes opened. Skarmory woke up from the electricity! Skarmory growls at the Raichu.

Raichu frowns at the Skarmory. Raichu couldn't believe that Skarmory woke up! Raichu was going to teach Skarmory a lesson. Raichu starts to power up the same attack he had been powering up. Skarmory saw this as a time to attack. Skarmory moves his wings a bit and starts to summon something. The rain stopped. Raichu is still powering up the attack. The clouds roll out of the arena, and the sun comes out! The rain is beginning to dry up. Raichu finishs powering up the attack. The rain that was on Skarmory is dry now. The electrical attack flys towards the Skarmory. Skarmory looks up as the electricity hits him again. Skarmory yells. The pain isn't as bad as before, but it's bad! The electrical enery disappears, and Skarmory falls to the ground. Skarmory has been KOed...

Hmmm.... Raichu's batteries are getting low. Optimal time to try out my new pokemon. OzTung the Lickitung! I choose You! And seeing as how Its my moves, I'll do those too.

OzTung, Start by setting up a Sturdy Substitute(25%) , Then, Use Toxic on the rat. Finally, Increase your offensive abilities with Swords Dance.

Subs:

~If Raichu changes the weather to Rain Dance, use Blizzard to freeze the rat instead of Toxic. (with no electricity to melt the Ice, he'll be left in the cold :D)

[Charizard04621]

Sorry to interrupt, but Deck Knight, isn't your Lickitung still waiting to be approved?

[Deck Knight]

Its Sig. Is not,However, the thing itself is. I could just go for no sig. for a while. Unless of course you need the sig. approved with the pokemon. Which is kind of stupid, if you think about it. Basically, It has no sig. untill i can get its sig. approved.

[Charizard04621]

Oh, so you paid 10¥ to give the sigless pokémon its Signature Move, then? Lickitung was approved sigless previously?

[Deck Knight]

(Actually, I paid 25¥ to buy it from OzAndrew and another 25¥ to remove its old sig. if you want to get technical). I've already spent 50¥ getting it, I should at least be able to use it.

[Charizard04621]

Oh, so when you bought it, you already got it approved. Yeah, that's what I needed to know.

I believe your sarcasm is showing. *points to Team Approval Tower* Bah, Its sigless. with a link to where I got it from. Happy now? (http://www.pokemasters.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=9072&perpage=15&pagenumber=18) Or can it not be approved for having no sig. Yeah. Thats what I thought. Now. If you don't mind, I believe this battle can continue. If you would indulge me while I wait, TMM, I would have much gratitude.

[Matt]

TMM is now DQed. So Deck Knight collect your prize...

[Deck Knight]

I choose to evolve Terrato the Sandshrew...

Terrato: Ummm... Yay? *glows White*

Sandslash: The names Slash, Sand Slash. Well then Sandslash, you need a codename. How about 00Slash.

Sandslash *falls over* How about we keep Terrato...

Worls for me.

Yay.... 1 bloody ¥.

[The Muffin Man]

Ah. Good to see you're more than happy to turn your back on someone who was willing to go so far in your 'project'.


you (didn't) earn that 1Y. Congrats.
