ROUND 1
The beach is a suiting place for the battle against Crown34 and Dogfish44, who keeps taunting his opponent because his numbers are greater. Nevertheless, the battle is a six-on-six, meaning that we're going to be on this beach well into the summer months (when beaching is appropriate), but I digress. Dogfish summons his pokémon first: a sly chingling named Echo, while Nero, Crown's absol, comes next.

Echo tags the absol with a diminishing spell [ -8PP Echo ]. Nero, uncertain of what just happened, attempts to strengthen his already-powerful attack strength, but begins straining his mind when he realizes that nothings happening [ -5PP Nero / +20% Atk Echo ]. The chingling just smirks gleefully.
100/92 100/95

Annoyed that his attack power didn't rise, Nero whips himself over towards the chingling and slashes at her with dark energy, sending her sailing into the sands painfully [ -12HP Echo / -4PP Nero ]. Echo retalliates by shooting off a snapping bolt of electricity that engulfs the wolf, paralyzing him [ +25% Par Nero / -6PP Echo ].
88/86 100/91

His movement now restricted, Nero can only watch as Echo hits him with a taunting poison that will only get stronger the deeper it gets [ +3% Tox Nero / -6PP Echo ]. He struggles upon it, but manages to strike Echo once more with a slash [ -8HP Echo / -5PP, -1HP Nero ].

ROUND 2
Echo starts the second round swiftly by hovering over to her frozen opponent. She taunts him for a few seconds while he tries to respond ineffectively. As he strugles, Echo lets him have it with a splash of bug-based energy; normally a weaker attack, but against a dark-pokémon: pretty poignant [ -12HP Nero / -7PP Echo ]. Nero, finally able to react, does so by sharpening his large talon [ +20% Atk, -5PP, -1HP Nero ].
80/74 87/81

But Echo doesn't stop there, no-no. She lets him have it with another electric attack that nearly shatters his resolve while strengthening Echo's [ -8HP Nero / -6PP, +10% SpA Echo ]. Nero, in turn, howls before spitting off batch of his own toxicity to wreak havoc on Echo's central nervous system [ +3% Tox Echo / -5PP, -1HP Nero ].
80/68 78/76

Echo thinks about her situation for a moment before ultimately firing off the same attack as before -- the signal beam envelopes the dark wolf for a few agonizing seconds [ -13HP Nero / -7PP, -1HP Echo ]. Nero groans, still suffering from the crippling poisons, before brutally coming at the bellmon with a mighty slash [ -14HP Echo / -4PP, -1HP Nero ].

ROUND 3
In preperation for the attacks that'll invariably come her way, Echo begins the third round by summoning a protective wall [ +100% Def, -5PP, -1HP Echo ], right as the absol comes at her with a dark-enhanced slash [ -7HP Echo / -4PP, -2HP Nero ].
57/56 62/68

Echo brings back her electricity by firing off another static beam of shocking electricity that collides with Nero easily [ -9HP Nero / -6PP, -1HP Echo ]. Nero brushes off the attack as best as he can before diving at the chiming bell once more, slashing at her torso [ -5HP Echo / -5PP, -2HP Nero ], the protective barrier absorbing the brunt of the attack.
52/50 51/63

Another charge beam strikes Nero [ -9HP Nero / -6PP, +10% SpA, -1HP Echo ] as the hound paws at Echo fiercely, scoring yet another critical hit [ -7HP Echo / -4PP, -2HP Nero ]!

ROUND 4
Just like the previous round, Echo begins this one with another protective barrier spell [ +100% SpD, -5PP, -2HP Echo ], while Nero just sits there, paralyzed completely [ -3HP Nero ].
42/39 37/59

Echo fires off another charge beam, striking Nero for heavier damage [ -10HP Nero / -6PP, +10% SpA, -2HP Echo ] as Nero remains frozen due to the plaguing paralysis [ -3HP Nero ].
40/33 24/59

But before Echo can let her opponent have it with another strike, Nero hits first with a signal beam of his own, crashing into her protective barrier [ -11HP Echo / -7PP, -3HP Nero ]. Echo's own signal beam then strikes the wolf [ -14HP Nero / -6PP, -2HP Echo ].

Anyway, Signal Beam, Charge Beam, Signal Beam.

Calm Mind on Protect, Shock Wave on Double Team.

Let off a barrrage of Night Slashes.

[Dogfish44]

Heal Bell + Charge Beam combo.

Repeat charge beam if needed.

[crown34]

Aaaand out goes Rise my male Duskull with Levitate.

[Dogfish44]

Echo, you're doing great!

Taunt, Shadow Ball, Knock Off!

[crown34]

Dodge the Shadow Ball, but let loose with your own barrage of Shadow Balls.

[crown34]

Fire a Future Sight and Shadow Sneak and Shadow Ball.

[Dogfish44]

Go with Hypnosis, then Double Psychic!

[Dogfish44]

Excellent Job out there echo - have a medal!

GO! Super Sprout, my Female Sunkern!



^_^

Go with Razor Leaf, then Seed Bomb, then Giga Drain.

Working on reffing you vs DryK btw...

[crown34]

Calm Mind and fire off a Ice Beam and a Blizzard.

[crown34]

Shoot a Shadow Ball and use Blizzard twice.

[Dogfish44]

Light Screen, Toxic, Giga Drain!

[Dogfish44]

Giga Drain, Seed Bomb, Giga Drain.

Though I'd posted this one >_>

Sorry crown...

[crown34]

No problem, any how... send Blizzard after Blizzard at that little seed.

[crown34]

After relaxing just go crazy and Blizzard all over the place.

[Dogfish44]

Giga Drain * 3

[crown34]

Grr. I will send out Crow my Murkrow with Super Luck.
Aerial Ace twice and Fly.

[Dogfish44]

Hey, it's my attack first *fumes*

Toxic ~ Leech Seed ~ Sludge Bomb

If you can't perform a move tue to taunt, swap it to Sludge Bomb.

[crown34]

Sorry, I'll stick with my original moves.

[crown34]

Get him with Toxic and Aerial Ace then Fly high.

[Dogfish44]

I hate it when they fly...

That toxic should force him to end his fly attack prematurely, so go with Endeavor, then GrassWhistle, then finally Sunny Day.

[Dogfish44]

Why did endeavor fail?

http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/sunkern/moves

Gets it there, and also here:

http://pokemon.marriland.com/hgss/pokedex/sunkern/ (Level 21)

And even here:

http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/191.shtml

So why fail?

[crown34]

When you wake up take to the air with Fly and strike with Aerial Ace.

[Greyfox]

Because Crow was still up in the air -- far too high for Sprout to attack him -- which is why Crow's toxic missed as well.
