    Default Re: Open Challenge (Ref Needed)

    I'll accept your challenge Becca =O

    I'll send out my Mudkup, Kip! (Male)

    Alright, this is my first battle in a *very* long time (3-4 years >.>) so bare with me!

    Kip, start out with a nice powerful MuddyWater!

    Then, use your most powerful Mud Shot if there is enough mud to do so! If not, barrage it with an Ice Beam

    End the round with a Rain Dance!

    If any Special Attacks are used, use a Mirror Coat to send the damage doubled back at him!

    [color=yellow]Intro
    Fanfare echoes throughout the arena…the mob of spectators cheers their lungs out in anticipation…and somewhere out there…a Grumpig is flying…(weird joke I know..) TML, the true and original Vet…has returned. She enters from the shadows of her corridor and waves graciously to the manic patrons. Who would of thought you could get 5 thousand people to wear “We love TML” shirts all at the same time…heh. Moving on, her anxious opponents rolls a ready poke ball between his fingers, itching to get this fight rolling. TML is happy to oblige as she calls forth her Ant Lion, Matthias. In retaliation, a Mud Skipper like creature takes a ready stance in front of Darth…let’s begin.
    ~~~~~
    BATTLE
    ~~~~~
    The battle jump starts with a bang as Kip flexes his spongy orange gills, filling them with a thick murky fluid. The massive insect like ground type hurriedly chews through the dirt flooring and digs a deep pit, mandibles alone. Mudkip sprays his grimy water only to have it sail over a newly created tunnel.

    Kip’s eye twitches a bit from irritation of his attack failing and charges for the hole. A glassy spheroid gathers between his lips to inflict frosty justice to Matthias right into his burrow. Half way to his destination, a light rumbling occurs and the ground beneath his paws breaks free and abruptly hurls Kip skyward by an underground tackle. As his body twist and flips in mid air, the Ice Beam fires off in a random, non-threatening direction. Dusting himself off, Matthias flashes and splits into two.

    Kip lands upon his back, but rolls over quickly in a fighting stance; there goes that twitch again. Putting his frustration on the back burner, he clears his mind to chant and sway rhythmically to abide the wishes of the rain Gods. Clouds form from nothingness on a clear blue day and swirl into a gray mass. As the Mud Fish continues to concentrate, Matthias answers by taking advantage of his opponent, who has left himself wide open for attack. The Trapich’s rise on there hind legs and soundly drops like an anvil, sending a wave of fast moving earth. As soon as Kip felt the first sweet drops a moisture he is clobbered by a traveling mound of terra firma, flinging him like a rag doll to slide to a stop. The rain has picked up a bit now and Matthias loses his clone and shakes off the droplets which annoy him, Kip get up again and glares at the Ant Lion, *twitch twitch*….

    Becca, its been long enough. If I *was* around in '02, then it has been three years, because it would've been early '02, so >.O

    Kip: Muuud...*twitch twitch* >.O

    Alright Kip, let's do this the right way now! I want you to use your best Ice Beam Right before that Trapinch uses Earthquake! Freeze it and prevent it from smashing into the ground!

    Then, when it is rushing at you for a Quick Attack and its Bite combo, (unless it is frozen in place), take out your frustration on it by using Frustration! Show it how angry you are!

    If it is frozen in place, blast it with your Water Pulse!

    Finally, no matter if that Quick Attack/Bite worked, soak him in your Toxic....whatever o.O

    Matthias shiver and rise up to deliver another ground strike but Kip is prepared and blasts off a cold beam which tags the ant lion in the stomach and rolls it over on his back.

    The Mudkip grins smugly and center his anger into a destructive force as Matthias quickly rolls up and charges at Kip, a white streak behind him. The frosty ice beam has taken effect leaving Trapinch a bit sluggish even for the quick attack. Matthias opens his jaws as he closes in but Kip dodges swiftly and tackles him in the side to knock him off balance. Matthias stumble and rolls from the momentum and lands in a heap, and to top this off a burning poison splatters his face, delivering some nasty effects for later in this battle. Kip’s twitch seems to be calming a bit…..

    TML, my last post was in December, 2002. It's in the RPG section still, amazingly o0 Anyway....


    I see you're feeling better Kip.

    Kip: Muuud ^-^ *mini-twitch*

    Good. Now, blast it with another Ice Beam, followed by a Secret Power, and finally end with a Double Team

    Substitutions: If any 'special' attacks come near you, Mirror Coat them back. If Matthias tries to use Earthquake, blast it with another Ice Beam to make sure it can't perform it.

    Kip musters a spiraling Ice beam as Matthias chomps the arena floor in an attempt to dodge. The beacon is much faster than the sopping wet and cold ground type and he is struck on his descending backside. The force of the blow throws the Trapinch from his tunnel and freezes his lower half.

    Now struggling with his icy bond, Matthias is left wide open to be assailed by a glittering off white ray from the mouth of Kip. It knocks the ant lion for a loop and leaves his head in a muddled mess, confused greatly.

    Kip’s strategy is paying off better than expected so he proceeds to cloak himself in clones, flashing to encircle Matthias with a total of 6 Mudkip’s..which disappear in the rain. Matthias bobbles his head, very disorientated, freezing, drenched, and poisoned….ouch….

    How can clones exist when rain is falling down? *sighs* And why did Matthias's energy burn up faster than Kip's? He was stuck to the ground the whole time and lost 20 compared to Kip's 16

    Some people don't ref rain as being strong enough to wipe out clones. I know swift and general projectiles work but it's all up to the ref really.

    Why the energy burn up? Mostly because the mix of frozen, and poisoning burn up alot of energy. A. To get free of the ice and B. Poison doesn't just ake health, the less healthy you are the less energy you have...

    What'd I miss o0

    Anyway...

    Kip, this isn't over yet! I want you to blast him with a full power Blizzard, after he starts chomping down.

    Now, if he is still frozen, he can't perform Earthquake, at least I don't *think* he can, but I could be wrong. Gather up some of the water in the air and push it into a Water Pulse attack! Then, end the round with a short rest. Don't do anything else.

    If he's not still frozen, blast him with an [color=lightblue[/color] until he is!

    Matthias gathers all his mental capacity to make the spinning Mudkip’s hold still. He opens his jaws and in one swoop, chomps the ice holding him down. He stretches the quivering limbs but is met with a barrage of frost and snow which blow him away and freeze his face.

    Kip’s eye twitches again as his tactic is only half successful and gathers more cold energy. An idea pops in the scrambled mind of the ant lion, kill two birds with one stone! Matthias rears up and slams his skull into the ground, systematically shattering his frozen helmet, send a screaming quake wave to slam Mudkip and divert its attack, AND knock his confusion away. Scratch what I said...three birds.

    He shakes the dirt from his head and sees Kip in the distance, struggling on shaky legs to get up. “The ground is so inviting though” Matthias thinks to him. He relishes in creating another tremor which bounces and throws the poor mud fish into the stadium wall…

    Sorry it has taken so long.

    Kip

    Take the advantage of the waning rain and Water Pulse. Then, use a Ice Ball. End with a Blizzard.

    Ice Beam If it tries to perform Earthquake.

    Bleh, I've probably meesed up with attacks, but I'm a little bit busy >.>

    Water Pulse ~ Ice Ball ~ Blizzard

    Subs: Ice Beam if he uses Earthquake.

    Use sunny day to warm the arena up a bit. I'm sure the sun will be out now so use a solarbeam and then use giga drain. If you somehow get frozen and can't move, use crunch

    The chill going down Matthias from the torrential rains is truly annoying. With that in mind, he opens his mouth and gathers an energy sphere which radiates with heat. Kip gets up, wobbly from the aftershocks, and searches for his opponent. His eyes are filled with a yellow luminance which he squints under. The ball of sailing solar energy stops in mid-air 20 feet straight up and explodes to twice its original size. The sweltering heat from the Sunny Day also instantly dries the clouds and Mud Fish out but he manages to send a pulsing stream of water, but as it races and strikes Matthias, it is greatly evaporated and weakened.

    With the last of the rains all gone Kip is now on the defensive of weather attacks and he surrounds himself in a wispy ice blue energy, which under the faux sun, is melted to a mere inch off his body. With a slight twitch and a sigh, he sprints at his opponent. Matthias grins, opens his jaws and rips a golden beam, larger than his head, which engulfs Kip and sends him smashing into the stadium wall.

    Mudkip limply falls to the floor, blackened all over and he coughs in pain. A gently rumbling catches his attention and he opens one eye to ponder this. His eyes bug out as a salivating Matthias charges with a great hunger. Kip rolls over to his feet and fires a swirling cone of ice chunks, which promptly melts to water which splashes Trapinch. It slows him only a bit before he almost swallows Kip and absorb his life force in the form of a soft green glow….

    Darth Skrusti takes a look to the sky, and then to his Mudkip. This might be the last round for the poor critter.

    "Kip, you can do this. I know you can. There's not much we can do, but we're sure going to try!"

    "Kip...Muuuuuudkiiiiiip!"

    Smiling, DS points to Matthias. "You heard Becca's orders, so let's do our best to counter them! First, I want you to use your Rain Dance again. Yes, this leaves you open for an attack...but...Solarbeam would hurt worse. Next, I want you to create a wave of Surf! And, I want you to RIDE IT! Stay *off* the ground, because that Earthquake can only harm you if you are on the ground. Finally, after you slam that wave into Matthias, I want you to use a point blank Water Pulse! Try your best to confuse Matthias!

    BATTLE
    ~~~~~
    [color=CCCCCC]
    With a hocking spit, Kip is dislodged from the confines of Matthias’ jaws. His drool covered figure staggers up and shakes the excess gunk away. Pushing THAT horrible experience to the back of his mind Kip focuses on this heat wave, by generating coiling clouds which blanketed the false sun and fizzes it out to nothing, bringing the rains again. Matthias growls as the droplets singe his hid, and rear up to send another Earthquake that hits Mudkip.

    Once he stops tumbling, Kip rises again through sheer grit and determination and glares at his opponent. The shallow puddles and torrential rains give rise to an idea. He cries with animalistic rage and pulsates with a blue energy, and all at once, the puddles, the mist, and rain, glow in unison and converge under the paws of Kip. Trapinch for the first time in this battle staggers back from the sight of the slowly growing tidal wave. He catches his moment of cowardliness and decides to end this attack with yet another quake. The earth attack rolls into the swaying mass of H20 but only serves to tear a hole that is quickly rebuilt. With a sneer of malice Kip wills his wave forward to cascade on Matthias and drown him.

    Kip lands a few feet away from his tower and turns to watch what will happen next. The waters reside to show a flattened ant lion, coughing up heaps of liquid. Taking a break is all Matthias can do and Kip breathes heavily from exerting so much energy. With a final act for his next ally, he sends a small aqua blast, circled with single ring of supersonic pulsation that tags Matthias in the size and rolls him on his back. Kip smiles faintly and collapses from exhaustion while the Toxic has worn the last bit of strength from Matthias’ body…

Surf worked on the idea that the constant pouring rain gave a unlimited amount water to control, but not as powerful as body of water.

    With a smile, Darth Skrusti holds up Kip's ball, and with a soft "...return...", calls the Mudkip back into its ball. Thinking about Becca's final choice for the round, he nods, and enlarges another ball. "Yuki, I choose you!" He calls out. The Meditite yawns and stretches after being released, performing small acrobatic movements to prepare herself for battle. Smiling at her, he gives her orders for the round.

    "Yuki, this Starmie is a formidable opponent, aye, but I doubt it's going to be able to move very fast on land. Start off with a Mind Reader, get a better idea of what it is going to do. Next, Swagger!. Finally, end your turn with a point blank Shadow Ball!

    Let's throw her off kilter before she can do much damage, Chiron. Start off with a confuse ray to thoroughly disorient her. Then use thunderwave and finally use water pulse. If confuse ray doesn't work, use protect and if you don't use thunderwave on the second action, use it on the third action

    BATTLE
    ~~~~~
    [color=CCCCCC]
    Two ruby beams rocket from their respective red and white spheres to collect up their water logged occupants. With a somber sigh and a “Good Job” to her ball, TML replaces it with a shining aqua blue one. With a nice spin on the throw, her next choice in her arsenal is Chiron. He hums with joy from the cooling rain as light sparkly off his gem core. Not to be out done, DS implements a pokemon of the Psychic nature as well in Yuki, a pint size yoga master. She warms up with handstand push up and unique ways of contorting her body, shaking water off her head.

    As I nod to both trainers, the second half of the round begins...Chiron leaps into action and generates a ghastly gray light from his jewel. Yuki levitate in an Indian style position and closes her eyes as she enters the mind of the seas star. He eyes bolt open and she cartwheels a distance away as the Confuse Ray explodes in her previous spot.

    Yuki slides to a stop and takes a fighting stance, but there isn’t an attack coming for her, instead, Chiron fans his body and surrounds himself in a glittering jade orb of protection. Thinking he is a coward, the Meditite yells obscenity of all forms and proceeds to use offensive hand gestures but alas, Chiron’s shield blocks all these attempts to rile him up.

    Now that that plan is a bust, Yuki will have to bring the battle to him! She charges and touches her wrist together in a clam shell style and charges a ebony ball of energy, crackling with violet electricity. She throws her arms and the mass of ghost power at her opponent, but it seems he was waiting for her to get close enough to strangle her with an entwining bolt of voltage. Her attack flies over Chirons body and lands a distance away doing little damage. Yuki yelp as she is shocked relentlessly and tossed aside. She manages to rise, but quivering as she is now in a battle with her own nervous system.

    I know the Shadowball missed its direct hit, but it said little damage was done, and Chiron is still at 100% O.o Wouldn't "some" damage be a percent or something? *shrugs*

    Anyway...Huzzah for Status Conditions >_> Yuki's been having problems with those lately.

    Alrighty then. Yuki, use Psychic to grab ahold of that bolt and curl it straight back at at Chiron. Then, before he can use Blizzard, create a Light Screen in a dome around you to protect you from the winter storm. Finally, it'll be resting, so, use Sunny Day

    Yuki pant’s as her body seizes randomly from her paralyzed state but she preservers taking a fighting stance. Starmie lashes off a whizzing blast of electricity which Yuki mental latches onto. She quivers as she raises her arms and diverts the attack straight up, but before she has the chance to return it her form locks up and the attack simply sails into the sky.

    Slightly peeved from her first assault, she continues on with her trainer’s orders and casts an opaque dome. Just as it finishes her shield is put to the test, barricading her from the harsh blast of ice and snow. Chiron’s core returns to its normal color after the powerful Blizzard.

    Although his attacks failed, there is always time to rest a bit, Chiron slouches a bit and let out an exasperated sigh. Meditite eye’s the resting sea star and devises to end his watery joy and her own wet misery. Forming a glowing fire ball in her palm she tosses it into the sky and while her hand is still extended she closes her fist which detonates the energy into a shining false sun. Chiron stares up at the Sunny Day annoyed as well as myself…so many weather changes…so little time.

    Considering toxic isn't a special attack, I think it's fitting to use on a sitting duck. Then use double team and rapid spin. Try to spin fast enough to keep you from hearing her taunts but if you can hit her as well, go for it

    BATTLE
    ~~~~~
    The yoga master, under her dome, takes an Indian style squat and closes her eyes. She chants in her native tongue and slowly gravitates upwards as she begins to reach a high plane of consciousness. Chiron sees this as a perfect opportunity to hinder his opponent even more by leaping over head and raining down a dollop of poison. It easily passes the light screen and breaks the concentration of Yuki, burning into her scalp.

    As Yuki flails to rid her self of the acidic substance, the sea star flashes brilliantly and creates a tight circle of copies which stay in a constant state of motion. Yuki suddenly realizes she in outnumbered in her brief fit and she shifts her eyes from side to side, who to attack? She gathers a Shadow Ball between her palms and sighs deeply; letting her newly clamed nature and focused mind lead her. Immediately and on instinct alone she blindly throws her attack backwards and scores a direct blow which dissipates all the clones.

    Chiron skids on his back, smoking a bit but springs back up, angered. Fuel is added to the fire by the taunting gestures of the fighter. Yuki belittles Chiron, calling her sharp points “dull as butter knifes”. Chrion’s core burns a deeper red then normal and he rashly rushes Yuki who can tell he is confused and easily evades the spinning shuriken and watches him slam into the ground.
