Rotation Rumble! Rossymore VS RaZoR LeAf, Ref: RarkestRight

[Rossymore]

Okay, I'm game for a battle, but not just any battle, a Rotation Battle.
Not sure if there are actually any rules concerning these, so let's make them up!
We have three Pokemon to send out, but it is reffed like a single battle. Between any of the three actions in a round, you may switch your active Pokemon with another, labelling as such: Attack ~ [Switch to X] ~ Attack ~ Attack.
Switching can also be done before the first and after the last action, if you're so inclined. You must also remember which Pokemon you have, doesn't matter if they're to the left or to the right of the active Poke.

If you want it to be a 3 VS 3, or a 6 VS 6, I don't mind. I'll send out first when someone's replied.

Arena will be my (somewhat) staple, The Wobbuffet Shrine.

A large plateau sits high on a mountaintop, with two large statues of Wobbuffet stand, giving their salute to the great Japanese comedian they represent. At the end of each round, one of Wobbuffet's moves will take effect on one of the Pokemon and be in effect for the next round only. This effect cannot be averted or prevented. The ref will not reveal when effects happen during a round, so attacks are posted as normal (unless they are explicitly stated, such as Bide, Salute, Renounce, etc.)

Counter: The Pokemon will reflect and double physical damage for the round.
Mirror Coat: The Pokemon will reflect and double special damage for the round.
Destiny Bond: If the Pokemon faints during the round, it will take down its opponent, regardless of move, even if damage was self-inflicted.
Safeguard: The Pokemon cannot be inflicted by status moves, or any negative effects in general (including stat drops and negative ability effects, whether by self or by opponent).
Charm: The Pokemon's attacks is reduced by two stages.
Splash: A random action decided by the ref will be replaced by Splash.
Encore: A random move decided by the ref from the previous round will be used for the entirety of the next round.
Struggle: A random action decided by the ref will be replaced by Struggle.
Tickle: The Pokemon's attack and defense are lowered by one stage.
Mimic: A random move decided by the ref used by the opponent in the previous round will be used in a random action in the next round, again decided by the ref.
Salute: The Pokemon's first action if replaced by Salute, where the Pokemon, erm, Salutes the statues and will have plus one in all stats for the remaining two actions.
Renounce: The Pokemon's first action is replaced by Renounce, where the Pokemon will turn bitterly away from the statues. They will have minus one in all stats for the remaining two actions.
Bide: For the first two actions, the Pokemon will use Bide and take all damage dealt. On the third action, this damage is doubled and dealt to the opponent.
Psychic: The Pokemon's type is now the Psychic type for the remainder of the round, along with all type advantages and STAB.
Shadow Tag: The Pokemon is immobilized and cannot move, being only able to use special moves or moves that do not make contact.
Astonish: A random action decided by the ref will be replaced by Astonish, which deals 10 damage and has a 50% of flinching. This attack deals normal type damage and can recieve STAB.
Flail: A random action decided by the ref is replaced by Flail, where the user's health now equals the opponent's health, whether or not it is higher or lower.

At the end of each round, both Pokemon will be affected by an effect. It can be the same effect. I've also added a few new effects that all relate to Wobbuffet in one way or another. I don't think I'll be adding any more.

So who's up for it?

[RaZoR LeAf]

OOo, I was thinking the other day about how a Rotation battle would work. Definitely in. 6 vs 6 sounds good to me.

[DarkestLight]

I did a trial run Rotation battle in a Tournament I believe? It worked well enough. I can ref this. Would help get some more skematics under my belt. Damn you added more moves though, lol

[Rossymore]

Okay, so I'll be using Berobelt, my male Lickilicky with Own Tempo at the front. Then Abusora, my male Absol with Pressure, then finally Golonya, my female Golem with Rock Head.

When you post your Pokes, RaZoR, I'll issue my attacks.

[RaZoR LeAf]

Shouldn't I attack first if you're calling first?

I'll send out Obelisk the Tormentor; Golurk w/ Iron Fist at the front, then Crescendo; (f) Exploud w/ Sound Proof and finally Imhotep; (m) Cofagrigus w/ Mummy

[Rossymore]

...oh yeah.

Shut up, it's a Friday.

[RaZoR LeAf]

Obelisk, hit Lickilicky with a Dynamic Punch followed by a Grass Knot then we'll switch to Crescendo who'll use Ice Beam

[DarkestLight]

Just getting this up here so I don't have to do it later.

===Round 1===

Hell, hi howdy there and how ya doing. DL here with another Rotation battle extravaganza. I haven't even left the Wobbuffet Shrine before Razor comes up here on his soul searching journey to try and battle Rossy. Rossy makes a few amendments to what Wobbuffet shrine here can do..DAYUM really? Each one separately? Uhh ok

Well, the Rotation platforms are set and we are ready to rock. Everyone unloads their Pokemon and in what order they should be in rotation wise..and yeap. Let's begin.

Bero shakes his bellybelly and licks the ground, making a streak of sand that stands on its own. Ew. It begins to clump together and Bero tries to form a Substitute out of it. Obelisk, being a mite slower than one would think for being a Second Generation Megazord, uses Hyper Punch attack! The wild haymaker smashes Bero's attempt at a Substitute, but Bero didn't seem to mind.

Bero: -4E/-6H Sub: Boom ~~~ Ob: -7E

Bero stomps his foot on the rotation pad, and the dias shifts to the growling Abu. Obelisk feels a bit funny for a moment, but doesn't slow down his barrage. A barrage that gets a nasty backlash as Abu lunges for the titan's chest. A very well aimed swat, and Obelisk goes down! As the Megazordghost falls, Abu howls in glee.

But all things have retribution. Small tufts of moss and grass build around the dias and suddenly snag Absol, preventing him from movement for the moment, They try to quarter him, as Obelisk raises one hand, closing it slowly. The grasses get tighter with every second, Abu wincing in pain.

Ab: -8E/-7H ~~~ Obe: -7E/-18H

The grasses don't let up until Obelisk is back on its feet. The titan presses the button on his side's pad down, and the pad shifts over to Cresendo. Eager to get in a few belts of her own, Cresendo let's off a immediate Ice Beam-as one strikes her in the mouth! Impresssive. Abu is pretty quick to the draw there. Too bad he couldn't dodge hers.

Ab: -7E/-10H ~~~ Cre: -10E/-13H

With this first round over, the Shrine begins to rumble It attains a multitudinous auratic glow, before unleashing its light across the arena. The wonkiness begins.

===End Stats===


Notes:
1) I only moved the sprites around to help you visualize it, the health and energy bars stay put. Do you feel it would be easier on you if those moved as well?
2) Wobbuffet Shrine Shenanigans will be posted under the health/Energy totals of the one it affects, which will ALWAYS be the number 1 Slot holder for the moment.
3) Alternatively, I can either list the effect right after the flavor text reffing, or down here in the Note section.

[Rossymore]

Well if it makes it easier for you, DL, you can just change the number next to each Poke, so you don't need to keep switching them around.

And also, I would prefer if you did it Grey's way by having both teams have the effect, it makes it more interesting, though they can be different.

Other than that, it's all good.

[DarkestLight]

Both teams having it? Can do. Ya both under salute.

And I'll put the number beside them than and fix it so the health and energy bars line up.
You'll need to fix your description in the beginning cause it says one pokemon only gets affected :p Otherwise, I can do this!

[Rossymore]

Okay, rotate to Golonya, then Salute. Then Autotomize and use Flamethrower.

[RaZoR LeAf]

You didn't say which of my team is Saluting, so i'll assume it's Exploud.

Salute - Focus Blast - Water Pulse

[DarkestLight]

Razor. Number 2 of my notes at the bottom of the reffing explain the Wobbuffet shenanigans part. Hell no I'm not doing a 4/1 reffing on this one, too complex XD

===Round 2===

The statue demands tribute! With one powerful swipe, all whom dare battle on this hallowed field today turn toward the revered, immortalized Wobbuffet, and raise their left hand to their brow.

" WOOOOOOB! "

Well now. That was strange. Back to battle! Cresendo lowers her hand, and is surprised to see not Abu, but Golonya now rocking over toward her. Well, it looks like she's rocking toward her, but she's really just spinning in place.

Unsure what the meaning of this actually is, Cresendo opens her big mouth and yells extremely loud. The massive yell is joined by a energy ball the size of Alaska drawn to scale on a wall map. Golonya stops spinning only to withstand the full force of the blast.

Golonya: -3E/-20H +2 Spd, Weight halved~~~ Cr: -10E

Golonya appears after the explosive force dissipates, and charges up. She's undoubtedly faster than before. Guess rocking back and forth shaved off all those extra rocky plates she didn't need before. With her self being a lighter force, she found herself spiting hot fire all over Cresendo in a literary flash. The Exploud backed away, disturbed that rocks can spit hot fire!

She blocks the flames with her arms, and waits for the perfect opportunity. Her mouth opens once more and she sprays a thick ring of water. The Flamethrower flies in the center of this ring, completely missing it!

The watery strike slams Golonya and she shuts her mouth in pain. You know how annoying it is to be wet and have water drops run down ares you can't reach. THE WORST!

Go: -8E/-15H ~~~ Cre: -4E/-10H

This round over, the shrine begins to glow once more. A halo extends over the Wobbuffet's head, and then flies over the rotation disks. It hovers over the number one spot, ready to wrap itself around the unlucky soul, and force them to Struggle at some point in time.

===End Stats===


Notes:
1) As per Rossy's input, I will only switch the numbers around to indicate who is in the first slot. All sprites now line up with their health and energy bars.
2) Wobbuffet Shrine Shenanigans will be posted in the Notes Section. Struggle will occur to Both Slot one Pokemon
3) April fools mother lovers!

RL

[DarkestLight]

RL. just wanna make sure you didnt forget about this....

[RaZoR LeAf]

Sorry, I could have sworn I'd posted in this. Been a bit off this week, work has been chaotic.

Water Pulse - Ice Beam - Water Pulse

[Rossymore]

Just want to say Darkest, the stat gains by the shrine fade at the end of a round. And the current round's effect will occur on the Pokemon which is currently in play, so Golem and Exploud no longer have +1 in all stats.

Okay, Abu, use Sunny Day, then counter the Ice Beam with a Flamethrower, then rotate to Berobelt and use Focus Blast. And try to hit.

===Round 3===

Heh, well now. Interesting. I like the tandem effect this place has learned to give its folks. Anyway. We return you to our regularly scheduled shenanigans. Cresendo is eager to put the kabash on this whole rotation battle and spits off a wave of water. The wolf tries to call the sunshine out, but instead, finds itself stuck..struggling to even unleash the move. The water hits his body, causing more than the average owwie.

A resonance comes over Cresendo, and smacks her down. Hrm. Struggle strike. It works in weird ways, man.

Abu: X_X -6H ~~~ Cr: -6E/-8H

That painful weakness would have to be capitalized on again, in Cresendo's eyes. She however, switched gears out of a need to change things up and began to form a cold hard wave of energy in front of her. It formed into an orb, right as Goonya came with a Flamethrower! The Ice Beam was fired at the blast, and the negation of elements took place. Water fell and steam rose from their intersection, but neither was left harmed. Huh.

Ab: -8E ~~~ Cre: -10E

Well, having met his match, Golonya hit the button on the rotation disk. Don't act all surprised Bero, you knew you were gonna fight again. Bero huffs and raises his arm as Cresendo finds herself stuck on neutral now. She can't produce that same deluge of water, and what's worse, its not even against the same opponent. Bero flicked his tongue out and a tiny sphere of energy rolled over to Cresendo. She took one step back, before the ball exploded in a forceful manner.

That's alot of pressure for a tongue to utilize to get a Focus Blast the size of a gumdrop. Nevertheless, That weird wave of energy them slammed Bero upside the head. Man, Struggle is weird..

Be: -10E/-8H ~~~ Cre:X_X -24H

The shrine glows, and then..two orbs fly out of its rear. One strikes each rotation disc...this looks tricky now...

===End Stats===


Notes:
1) Rossy's side will undergo Renounce.
RL's side will undergo Flail

Rossy

[Rossymore]

Alright, Bero, turn your back on the statues, then Swords Dance and finish with a Power Whip.

===Round 4===

The praises and hinderances have been doled out by the mighty Wob. Bero suddenly whirls around and ignores the statues! While that occurs and a strange red aura ignites his body-Razor's team has a shift of leadership. Out steps the fully formed Obelisk, ready to deal some damage!

With his sentinel strength, he smashes Bero down for ignoring the ruling dieties! Learn some respect, foo!

Bero: -33H -1 All ~~~ Ob: -10E

Jeez. Remind me never to get on HIS bad side. Anyway, as Bero whirls around to rejoin the battle, Imhotep floats into the lead position. This presents a problem for the Lickilicky. He definitely doesn't wanna touch him. So he starts off with a dance! That'll help things out!

Imhotep waves its arms, and keeps waving them. Bero takes a strike from that unnessecary Flailing. Crazy coffin.

Be: -3E/-6H +2 Atk~~~ Im: -5E

Without anymore hinderances to worry about for now, Bero flings his tongue out and makes sure that its taut! The whip like action smacks Imhotep in the face, and there is a noticeable ripple that moves through Bero's tongue and into his mouth....which spreads over his body. Weird.

The coffin laughs at the misfortune of Bero and raises two arms. They clap and in the aftermath create a sphere that sears down the rotund rebeller!

Be: -9E/-11H ~~~ Im: -7E/-13H

The shrine glows, and then..two orbs fly out of its rear. One strikes each rotation disc...this looks tricky now...

===End Stats===


Notes:
1) Rossy's side will undergo Mirror Coat.
RL's side will undergo Mimic
2) The damage on Bero was over 40, but there are DC' sin place. It just makes it easier if I put the real totals down for this battle since elements shift.

O.O ::Bumps this...::

[RaZoR LeAf]

Doh! I keep forgetting about this battle! Why!? I don't know..

Switch to Exploud - Brick Break - Frustration - Seismic Toss (with Mimic being wherever)

===Round 5===

As this round starts, Obelisk decides to opt out of the battle. It presses the button and rotates away, Cresendo now back in the battle. Bero smirked and watched as Cresendo took a deep breath, before charging at him. The strikes were painful to Bero and yet, Bero felt a kinship with Cresendo!

That, and the tongue whipping beast made sure to wrap his tongue around that punching brute and twist! Cresendo hit the floor.

Bero: -6E/-10H~~~ Cr: -6E/-24H Mummy

Bero watched as Cresendo seemed to recover from the last blow. He looked at his assailant with a deep resentment, and bellowed loud before swinging once again. Her hits connected, but her Frustration grew as Bero Countered again! What the hell!

Be: -6E/-12H +2 Atk~~~ Cr: -6E/-16H

In a strange twist of fate, Cresendo did nothing to attack this round. This puzzeled Bero, as Cresendo needed to attack for him to be able to attack. Heh Mimic probably saved Bero's life.

Be: -.- ~~~ Cr: *Counter*

The shrine glows, and then..two orbs fly out of its rear. One strikes each rotation disc...this looks tricky now...

Hm? Oh **** yeah!

Rotate to Abu, Night Slash, Rock Slide, Night Slash.

hmm just read through this and I have to say RL you watch Chuggaaconroy? Doh is like his catchphrase

[BTPoke]

hmm just read through this and I have to say RL you watch Chuggaaconroy? Doh is like his catchphrase

If you're referring to chugga on the runaway guys' Mario party LPs, that "catch phrase" isn't bound to only Chuggaaconroy saying it. It's not even a catch phrase. He is just a big fan of how Wario says "D'oh I missed" in the early mario party games. D'oh is more likely homer simpson's catch phrase, but it's a widely-used term

Plus, RL only said Doh once in this entire thread

[Ash0011]

still it's enough to where he was recognized in public because of it

[RaZoR LeAf]

No, I've never heard of it. Doh is from The Simpsons, always has been and always will be. And I don't say it often enough to note.

===Round 6===

Man, this battle is actually getting interesting. Despite the survivability of all the Pokemon in questions, it seems Razor has a unique advantage. Instantly, he switches back to his massive golem as Abu is rotated in on Rossy's side.

The hound of disaster lunged first, viciously slashing at it. The golem raised its arms to protect itself, and kicked its foot out to trip up the quadruped. It worked, tossing Abu off balance, but not without leaving Obelisk slightly worn down.

Abu: -7E/-10H ~~~ Ob: -7E/-16H

Abu grinned and then dashed in again, as Obeli--Oh!

That was weird. Obelisk backhanded Abu right before it could execute a random Rock Slide. That's crazy. Abu is stuck on stupid. I mean, it's on its side, dazed.

Abu: O.o? -4H ~~~ Ob: -1E

Now it was Abu's turn. It flipped around and took the time to actually look like a damned Magikarp. That gave the giant enough time to aim and release a massive blast of energy! Geez..never thought Absol's even knew Splash.

Abu: x_x -24H ~~~ Ob: -14E

The shrine glows, and then..two orbs fly out of its rear. One strikes each rotation disc...and all the Pokemon hiss at the statues, lol.
