Chris 2.0 VS Negrek - Ref Crystal Tears

[Chris 2.1]

2 Pokemon each
1 out at a time
You send out first, I attack first
Banned moves: Direct Healers
Arena: Wild, Wild River. It's a very curved, wide river that sweeps through the middle of a dense jungle. It is very hot here and there is a lot of plantlife all around. It is very plausible some of the very large, fat plants will release toxins when they burst:
Yellow Toxin: Paralyses all who breath it
Purple Toxin: Poisons all who breath it (standard 2% each round)
Blue Toxin: Ensnares all who breath it into slumber
Black Toxin: Causes larger energy consumption for about 5 rounds.


The river can be used for battling; there is the firm but damaged remenants of a jetty halfway across the length of the raging rapids; underwater is also used for duels.


So lets have a ref! And an opponent please.

[Negrek]

I'll battle you, if you'd like. Using Heliotrope, my male shiny spheal.

[Chris 2.1]

Sure! I'll use Spiros my [M] Carvanha. Go Spiros! First use a double team across the river; next use take down and end with a crunch.

[Negrek]

Let's begin, Heliotrope. Start off by using a widespread surf to knock out Spiros' clones and wash the carvanha himself up onto the shore. He's rather fishy-looking to me, so I doubt he'll have the mobility to work up the speed for a good take down attack while flopping around on land, if attacking even remains a major concern at all. If he does manage to work up a take down, counter by getting onto shore yourself and using rollout, or prevent him from getting back in the water by slamming into him and knocking him away with the same. If he can only flop around and gasp a bit, instead use a curse.

Finally, I doubt that Spiros will be able to get a grip on you with his teeth while you're spinning in a rollout, so continue or begin using that attack if he approaches you with the intent of crunching or, again, knock him away from the water if necessary. If he still isn't able to move in for an attack, blast him farther into the jungle with a secret power.

Surf (widespread, wash Spiros onto land) ~ Rollout (counter take down or prevent return to water) / Curse ~ Rollout (counter crunch or prevent return to water) / Secret Power

Now we really need a ref. ^^

[Chris 2.1]

Ref anyone?

[Chris 2.1]

bump.......ref anyone?

[Crystal Tears]

May I ref this? One of my matches is almost done so I can take it.

[Chris 2.1]

Sure, thanks CT.

[Negrek]

(( Many thanks for reffing. ^^ ))

All right, Heliotrope, that could have gone better, but not to worry... let's see, now.

Let's start off by bringing a rock tomb down on top of Spiros; trap him and send him to the bottom of the river. Then, pile further rocks atop Spiros' prison with a pair of rock slides--pin him down good, even if the first rock tomb failed to work.

If Spiros creates clones, again was them away with a surf as before, and if he protects or otherwise seeks to evade your attack, relax an action.

Rock Tomb / Surf (widespread) / Relax ~ Rock Slide / Surf (widespread) / Relax x2

[Chris 2.1]

Torment it before using agility to dodge the rocks and then fire a swift at the nearest toxin plant to it showers Spheal with some sort of horrible status affliction.

[Chris 2.1]

Crystal is ill and she is unable to ref very frequently. Is there a chance of us finding a sub-ref please?

[Chris 2.1]

Never mind. I forfeit. Negrek we'll do this again another time.

[Negrek]

Alas... well, later, then.
