Round 11
Minh T. begins by shaking its bulb and sending a myriad of sharp leaves zooming towards her opponent, but, to her dismay, Slayer whips up a sandstorm, sending the leaves flying uselessly into the ground, and crumpling them into little balls.
Frustrated, Bulbasaur prepares to fire a Solarbeam while Larvitar attempts to safely dig underground. However, the sandstorms winds are constantly sending dirt and debris floating across the arena, and instantly filling or caving-in any hole Larvitar began to dig, before any leeway could be made. The solarbeam smacks the ground Pokemon dead-on.
Struggling to its feet, Larvitar charges at his opponent, through an array of razor leaves sent flying into him and pummels his opponent backwards, before heaving in relief.
The sandstorm also buffets ‘Saur. In case you wanted to know.

A Spoink? Never faced one of those before...
Minh T., use Giga Drain, then fire off a Magical Leaf. End with another Giga Drain.
Yeah Gannon is the same spoink that Crushed my old Voltorb, anyways....
Ganon use Psyco Slam (psychic and lift it up in to the air and slam it in to the Ground) next use Psychic to sotp the leaves in mid air them back into Minh T, then end this round with another Psyco slam..
btw mega what's the score?

Minh T. Saps away at Spoink with a Giga Drain, merely seconds after the psychic Pokemon bounces onscreen. The aptly named Ganon retaliates by throwing Bulbasaur up into the air and back down into the ground with its psychic Power.
Minh T. Shakes off the super effective blast, and fires an array of shiny white leaves, destined to hit their target. However, this magical power is not enough to stand against another psychic from the Spoink, and the leaves are redirected to a new target, remaining as determined as ever.
Bulbasaur growls angrily and uses another Giga Drain to regain health, but our snorting friend Ganon slams it into the ground with psychic power promptly afterwards, negating any health boost.

Blade sends out, Charles attacks.
Mega I'm giving you an official warning since your reffings have been of much poorer quality than usual recently. I know that your battlers have issued the same attacks three times in a row but your lack of description - three lines for a reffing - is not acceptable.
We have standards here and we cannot keep them up if people are not putting any effort into their reffings. I appreciate that your access to a PC is limited. I appreciate that you might have a lot of other duties, but having a quick and rushed reffing is not acceptable. We want you to ref in ASB if you live up to your reputation - you have an excellent imagination (and more quirk than any ASBer that signed up here) and you can put it to good use if you spend more time on these. If you need to take a week off to sort out priorities outside of work please do so if it means we can all enjoy your usual standard of reffings.
If this continues, you must understand that I will take action and you will be taken off the Approved Ref list. You will need to re-apply through the Mock Reffing if you want to gain your status again.
Thank you.

Also, not to be a dick, but hoe is it that 3 Psychic moves last round did 18 damage, and 1 this round did 32 damage? Are you sure that the HP loss is what took down Minh T. and NOT the energy loss?
Ok, this isn't really in good taste at this point, but since it's happening to me, I just gotta say it.
'PWN3D'
@Chris: Understood. I was feeling a bit guilty about doing that, and I promise you I'll live up to my potential from this moment forth.
@Blademaster: Thankfully, I wasn't the one who messed up this time. The round you are speaking of, only TWO real psychics were used, as one of them was merely used to control the significantly weaker magical leaf attack. Also take into consideration that Minh T. used Giga Drain twice that round.
ThanksI promise you I'll live up to my potential![]()

Yeah I am, thought I like the single timeline to be truthfal...
a Spink vs a Swinubyour right I did not see that one coming at all...
But you foregot that Spoink's attacks more or less are the same as what Ganon's dark magic is in Legend of Zelda...
Ok Ganon use Iron tail times three!

OK, Lil' Oinkie! Start with an Ice Beam to freeze Ganon's tail - he's helpless without it! Then bowl him over with Earthquake - not one powerful enough to break the ice; just enough to knock him over. Then, finish by Biting him while he's down - aim for that pink thing on his head!

Round 16
Dave – turns out Charlie did post his moves – we just somehow overlooked them. ‘Twas a well camoflauged post.
Using its superior speed, Ganon, Charles’ male Spoink bounces towards Swinub, slamming it with a glowing silver tail. Unshaken, the Swinub retaliates with an ice beam, freezing the psychic Pokemon’s only mobility – its tail – into a crudely shaped block of ice.
Unable to struggle free, Ganon is at Lil’ Oink’s mercy as the Swinub rattles the psychic popsicle with a little Earthquake, cracking the ice slightly as the Pokemon topples over.
Swinub immediately leaps to its floored foe and sinks its teeth into the ‘pink thing on its head,’ which, according to Pokemon Colosseum, is a heavy crystal ball, thus, Ganon is mildly damaged – and so is Swinub. Then, just as the round comes to a close, Ganon’s glowing tail manages to make a long spider-web shaped crack throughout the ice. It will be free very soon.

Two questions. Is Swinub's mouth required for Powder Snow? Also, may I ask why Chris edited Charlie's post?
1) It can be summoned or exhaled. Your call.
2) There was some offensive language which I removed.

OK, thanks Chris. As for Powder Snow abd Blizzard – I’ve always seen them as being summoned, and that also seems to be how they work in XD and Colosseum, so, sorry Charlie. But, to be fair, I’ll have Charles second and third psychic do minimal damage anyway.
Spoink begins by slamming Swinub’s mouth shut with psychic power, and the ground Pokemon’s nose becomes covered in a thin layer of blue ice as it struggles to exhale the ice beam.
Following, Ganon chips away at Lil’ Oink with Psychic, while Swinub summons first a gust of freezing white snowflakes, and then increases what was once a breeze to an all out blizzard of shards of ice, snow, and hatred.
Ganon is blown back, and its tail is now frozen even moreso.

'Use Thunder on yourself?'
...Whatever you say, Charlie-boy.
Lil' Oink! Start off with another Blizzard to give Ganon a double-blast of cold AND lightning, and then before it can use Extrasensory, try and unfreeze your poor nose by bopping it against the floor a few times. If the ice breaks, just relax for the rest of the turn; if not, keep trying to break it.
Move: Blizzard, Icebreaker, Relax
Sub: ----------, -----------, Icebreaker
So, Charles DQ's. How many points, again? 8 for me and Blade, 4 for charlie?
I think Charlie has to post saying that himself.
And neither of us gets anything - this was an 8 on 8; we've both only lost three Pokemon. Until either Lil' Oink or Ganon faints, we just don't have enough for anything more than battle experience.
so since you both lost 3, wouldnt the two winners get six? And unless Charles has changed his mind since a few days ago, then, alright.
It doesn't work that way in ASB, dude. I've read and re-read the rules a lot; in ASB, it's all-or-nothing.
...Um... Right?
...Chris, back me up on this!
