Chris 2.0 VS The Blue Avenger! Ref: The Arbiter

[Chris 2.1]

Time for a crazy arena, yes?


Pokemon Each: 4 - one out at a time.
Banned Moves: Recovery Moves, Cheap Moves (Perish Song, Destiny Bond, Pain Split, Grudge, Memento ETC )

Arena: Goldenrod City.

It is early morning in the thriving metropolis of Johto. The battle is taking place on the magnet train track which overlooks the skyscrapers and buildings, the thick shiny rails snaking across the city. The train is not running today. If either Pokemon falls off the arena, they take 7% damage. They can either get back up, or their foe can jump down to finish them off (they will recieve less damage if they jump off then if they fall).

The whole city is open to us - ever since Ruby and Sapphire came out, Goldenrod City is pretty much dead. The department store can be used (which has 7 floors, by the way), you can venture in the underground tunnel, or duke it out atop a skyscraper. There is also a huge aquarium, which can accomodate water Pokemon (*cough*TriangleMan*Cough*. To reach any of these places, simply command "head into the ___[location]". The city is our Oyster!


I'll send out first this time. I choose Electabuzz [M]!

[The Blue Avenger]

Hahah! That is a great arena.

Well then, let's start things off with a familiar face. Numeron (male Exeggutor), let's go!

Numeron, I want you to start things by throwing a Toxic at Electabuzz. Once you've done so, throw a Psychic blast at him. Finally, I want you to toss a Leech Seed as well.

Toxic ~ Psychic ~ Leech Seed

[Chris 2.1]

Thunderwave to paralyse it. Try and knock it off the tracks with an ice punch. If it works, relax. If it fails, repel the seeds with your own psychic.


Thunderwave -- Ice Punch -- Relax/Psychic

Now we need a ref.

[Greyfox]

I thought you wanted to battle me when you had an open spot...

No matter; I'll just play referee this time.

[i][size=1]round one

The two battlers meet one another in the largest city in all of the Johto region – Goldenrod. Once a prosperous city of wealth and greatness, now barren and desolate. With the entire city their's for the taking, both combat-thriving trainers stare down their opponent with a sense of confidence. Chris 2.0, the challenger, elects to summon his creature first. Choicing wisely, Chris tosses out a red and white colored ball, which proceeds to bounce wildly upon the top of the magnet train. Not even a moment passes before the large, humanshaped creature emerges from the small, orb-like home, "Buzzz...," he speaks. Thinking for a moment, challenged TBA contemplates his retalitory pokémon. "I choose Numeron!," shouting, TBA hurls out his Poké Ball of the same color; it bounces along the top of the train in the same fashion before summoning his own creature. Exiting the ball are several pink eggs; "Exeggcute," they all say in unison. They say that exeggcute have different brains all working together in syphony, giving them tremendous mind capabilities.

Now with the pokémon admitted into the fray, TBA takes point in annoucing his first volley of attacks, "Numeron, I want you to start things by throwing a Toxic at Electabuzz. Once you've done so, throw a Psychic blast at him. Finally, I want you to toss a Leech Seed as well."

Chris smirks a wild smirk as he announces his counter-volley, "Thunderwave to paralyse it. Try and knock it off the tracks with an ice punch. If it works, relax. If it fails, repel the seeds with your own psychic."

With the commands set, both pokémon step up. As the unnamed electabuzz steadily prepares for his electric attack, Numeron concentrate slowly by pulling the various toxins from their egg-shaped bodies; spitting the acidic waste from their mouths, electabuzz is instantly globbed in the purple poison. Not to be outdone, the electric creature snaps his fingers, emitting a tiny spark from them. The small electricity begins to flow faster and faster through his arm as it connects with the exeggcute. With the arm connected, the electricity freely flows into Numeron; the exeggcute then squeal in pain as the thunderous crackling trickles through them, thus paralyzing them. Now forced to a slower speed, the exeggcute un-hastefully concentrate on their next attack; meanwhile, the unnamed electabuzz does the same with his own arm, thinking heavily on things that remind him of cold. His right arm, now closed, is surrounded with an icy glob. "Buzz," he shouts as he slams his fist once more into the several eggs. "Exeggcute," once more they squeal in pain; several of their bodies are encased in ice. However, their concentration remains solid as the electabuzz is suddenly jerked high into the air. Wailing his arms to combat the sudden unwant, the electabuzz doesn't know how to react. Quickly, he his slammed onto the metal roof below; annoyed, Chris' electabuzz regathers himself and prepares for another attack. Mercilessly, Numeron spit out several lecherous seeds to which they can feed off of. As the several seeds flow through the air, electabuzz concentrates as well; using his psychich abilities (which aren't quite as good as Numeron's, admittedly), electabuzz successfully tosses three of the four seeds away; unfortunately, one of them still managed to latch onto his yellow fur, and immediately began draining his life away.

[i]round two

The once busy, bustling city of Goldenrod is all but peaceful; two pokémon and their respective trainers, still standing atop the dormant bullet train, ready their attack strategies. Chris 2.0 choices first, "Good work Buzz," he congratulates, "Start by striking the tree with a heavy hitting Fire Punch. Next, deepen the paralysis with a Shock Wave, and end with an Ice Punch."

Still tapping his feet to the crazy Japanese rock, TBA thinks about his opponent's attack, quickly coming up with a counter-volley, "Numeron, I want you to use Psychich to throw Electabuzz away from you a good distance," he starts, "Then, use Refresh. Finally, as Electabuzz comes in for the final attack, hit him with a point-blank Sleep Powder."

Numeron, the exeggutor (not an exeggcute), closes his many eyes, concentrating. A violet-colored aura engulfs him as his body remains static. Electabuzz, unaware of how to deal with the situation, prepares for his first attack. As his fist becomes enveloped by a burst of flame, the humanoid dashes forward along the metal ceiling of the bullet train. He runs forward only to notice that he too has been surrounded by a violet-colored aura. Without any time to react, Electabuzz is hurled towards the end of the train; quickly latching his right hand onto the train to keep from falling, Electabuzz slowly pulls himself back up. A little worn, the unnamed electabuzz is much too far to attack with his initial. He elects rather to attack using Shock Wave. As the collection of thunderous, yellow energy flows through the air, it eventually slams into the coconut tree and knocks him to the ground. His paralysis getting harder to combat, Numeron simply closes his eyes and concentrates once more. With his eyes closed, the bark along his body slowly falls off; several layers hit the floor, and Numeron smirks, pleased with himself as the paralysis goes away. Annoyed, Electabuzz rushes forward with his dominant arm outstretched; this time, encased in frozen water, Electabuzz hurls his fist into Numeron's torso; however, as Electabuzz is battling, Numeron spits out a venomous, pink powder which stings the electabuzz's eyes. Fighting his new-found drowsiness, Electabuzz can do nothing but give into it as he collapses onto the metal roof, eyes slammed shut.

And damn Buzz, we're losing.

Okay, Numeron, I want you to Dream Eater Electabuzz first. Then, I want you to pull a Nightmare on him. Finally, Dream Eater again.

However, should Electabuzz wake up, instead use Psywave.

[i]round three

Shooting first this round, TBA thinks for a moment whilst his opponent's sturdy, electric pokémon takes a nap. No one seems to know what happened to the train, or why they are safely on the train tracks. All they know is that they hope the bullet train is indeed closed down for the day. Avenger smirks to himself, "Okay, Numeron," he says with a plan, "I want you to Dream Eater Electabuzz first. Then, I want you to pull a Nightmare. Finally, Dream Eater again. However, should Electabuzz wake up, use Psywave instead."

Meanwhile, Chris whose moniker used to display his appreciation for his British heritage, tries to combat his adversary's interesting plan, "Wow, Numeron sure is stronger with legs... am I right, Buzz?" The electabuzz is asleep, Chris. "Ahem..." Chris is confused. Chris hits himself in his confusion. "Okay Electabuzz, use Sleep Talk three times! If you wake up, use Ice Punch." No one really knows what, if at all, pokémon really dream about; but I have a hunch it would go something like this:

In an ultra-surreal setting, with purple clouds and not-so-purple skies, the strange electric pokémon "Electabuzz" (just like naming your cat "Cat"), hovers a few inches in the air. Electabuzz, with a great big smile on his features, waves at the many living creatures around him; oddly enough, none of them even resemble real pokémon at all. Electabuzz "swims" through the air trying to greet each and every one of them, he hears the words, "sleep talk" over and over. Electabuzz simply closes his eyes; upon opening them, he emits a powerful silver glow, which completely envelops him in a shiny barrier. When his random attack, apparently Iron Defense, finished, something awful struck. His colorful world of purples and... more purples suddenly becomes black as night. A shocking sensation, Chris's pokémon is hurled from his slumber, with a good bit of energy sucked from him. Electabuzz is hurled out of slumber; eyes fully open and a cold sweat. Electabuzz had awaken. Groggily, he decides to retaliate against his opponent; thinking once more of cold, cold thoughts, Electabuzz's right arm is frozen solid; the humanoid pokémon slams his icy fist into the coconut tree's torso once more; Numeron is knocked back, causing him to trip over the rails, bringing him to the ground once more. Down, but certainly not out, Numeron desperately tries to summon an attack his trainer called out to him. Within just a few moments, he remembers the attack taught to him as an exeggcute; summoning up a portion of strength, Numeron fires two quick psychic volleys. The waves fluctuate in the air until they slap into Electabuzz, who is caught off guard. Annoyed, Electabuzz strikes down another ice-coated fist into one of the many faces of Numeron.

The round comes to a close, and both pokémon look like they've taken quite a beating.

Okay, Numeron, we're going to stall this round. While Electabuzz is setting up the Light Screen, I want you to Teleport into the department store - specifically, the 5th floor. Then, just chill; Electabuzz will be aiming at nothing while Toxic eats away at him...

Going first despite his disadvantage, Chris readies his fourth attack volley carefully, "Set up a Light Screen first. Then fire a Thunderwave and then a Thunderbolt," he announces, "If it uses Protect, then relax. If it tries putting you to sleep, use Screech to disrupt it."

With a wild smirk upon his features, Avenger readies his own strategy – "Okay, Numeron, we're going to stall this round. While Electabuzz is setting up the Light Screen, I want you to Teleport into the department store - specifically, the 5th floor. Then, just chill; Electabuzz will be aiming at nothing while Toxic eats away at him..."

Starting quickly, the unnamed electabuzz closes his eyes whilst holding up his ten digits. "Buzz, buzz, buzz," he murmurs silently as the aforementioned digits wave around; his shiny steel-esque coat flashes a bright white hue as he himself is covered in another protective veil. Meanwhile, as the humanoid collection of electricity prepared his elemental defensive maneuver, Numeron, the strategic exeggutor (again, not an exeggcute), closes his eyes and instantly vanishes from the tracks; where he goes, only two people know. Reappearing almost as instantaneously as he disappeared, Numeron plants his feet on the floor of the large department store – fifth floor to be precise. Unfortunate for the unnamed electabuzz who was just about to fire off a well-aimed conjurence of electricity; now wasted, Electabuzz decides to hold off on attacking the nothingness. Sighing, the unnamed pokémon simply waits upon the train tracks as the toxins slowly eat away at his health.

[The Blue Avenger]

Okay, Numeron, good job. Odds are that Electabuzz will track us down. He'll take at least one action getting to you, so set up a Light Screen. Once you've done so, wait for him to show up and then Giga Drain. However, should he poison or paralyze you, Refresh.

Light Screen ~ Giga Drain (possible x2, wait until Electabuzz shows up)
Subs: Refresh

[Chris 2.1]

Electabuzz, teleport into the third floor of the department store and try to find a paralyze heal. Then teleport to Floor 5 and use fire punch when Eexeggutor draws near.

If that's not allowed, teleport onto the 5th floor. Then, as it comes in for a giga drain, slam it with an ice punch, then as it comes in a second time, slam a fire punch into it.


Teleport (either to Floor 3, and eat a Paralyze Heal)/Teleport (Floor 5) -- Teleport (Floor 5)/Ice Punch -- Fire Punch


Buzz learns teleport in RBY, TM 30. And I'm thinking the deptartment store is empty, so stealing a paralyz heal might not be too hard.

[Greyfox]

I'm assuming that the item you're referring to is "Antidoe" and not "Paralyz Heal", considering that your electabuzz isn't paralyzed.

round five

Trying to save his situation, Chris 2.0 orders to his electabuzz, "Teleport to the third floor of the department store and try to find an Antidote. Then, Teleport once more to the fifth floor!" Almost instantly, the yellow humanoid vanishes. Both trainers, now without their pokémon, look over to the referee, who then sighs.

"You guys didn't think this through...," he says as he pulls out of his bag a purple-colored Poké Ball which belonged to a pokémon long retired from Grey's days of the Olde ASB. "Ark," he muses whilst summoning the psychic creature – an old alakazam, "Teleport us to the fifth floor of the department store!"

The alakazam focuses on the three of them, and they quickly dissappear from the train tracks. Opening their eyes once more, they come face to face with the fifth floor of the department store. "Thank-you, Ark," Grey says to his pokémon, "you can rest once more." Instantly, the psychic pokémon is recalled to his resting chamber; the three trainers once more wait for the electabuzz, to whom Chris 2.0 had ordered to find a cure for his ailment.

"Okay, Numeron," Avenger smirks whilst thinking of his attack plan, "Odds are that electabuzz will track us down; while he's doing that, set up a Light Screen. Once you've done so, wait for him to show up and then use Giga Drain twice. However, should he poison or paralyze you, use Refresh instead."

meanwhile

Electabuzz hurriedly looks through various pharmacy-related goods, hoping to find a cure for exeggutor poisoning. As time goes on, he manages to find a bottle of blue liquid, and guzzles it down; the poison that was eating away at him little by little now halts, freeing the electric pokémon from its grasp. With a sigh of relief, electabuzz vanishes; he reappears moments later on the same floor as his trainer and foes. As the yellow humanoid reappears, Numeron wastes no time in firing off a large green bubble, which proceeds to latch onto his fur and start draining his life away. This is not a good day for electabuzz and poisoning parasites. Luckily for the electabuzz, his Light Screen managed to block a good portion of the attack.

"Use Fire Punch when Numeron draws near!," Chris shouts. Electabuzz nods, dashing towards the coconut tree with a fierce intensity; his right fist covered in a dancing red flame, electabuzz punches Numeron. Whincing in pain, Numeron fires another Giga Drain, which saps energy from electabuzz in the same manner as before.

round six

The sixth round takes its course, and Chris choices his attacks first. "Good work, Buzz," he says to his very tired electabuzz, "Fire Punch, Ice Punch, Fire Punch. Use Quick Attack to avoid status effects."

With his retalitory moves already picked out, Avenger calls out to his exeggutor, "Okay, Numeron, first use Flash to blind him. Then Double Team to make it even harder for him to hit you. Finally, use a Toxic – but do so in a cloud-like form. Make it widespread so he can't juse Quick Attack to safety."

With the attacks called out, Chris 2.0's electabuzz growls angrily as his right arm is once more engulfed in an orange flame. "Buzz, buzz," he grunts as he throws the flame-enhanced fist towards his adversary, whom quickly manages to summoning a bright flashing sensation. Caught off guard, electabuzz manages to stumble his firery punch into the exeggutor's lower torso, however the damage isn't as glorious as he would've hoped. Doubling back, Numeron cries out as four more of himself instantly enter the fifth floor of the department store. Unable to tell which one is which, electabuzz dizzly makes his way towards a random foe and slams his, now ice-flavored, fist towards it. Unfortunate, the target he choiced disappeared quickly as he slammed his fist into the ground below. Whincing, electabuzz glares towards the four exeggutor, all laughing at his predicament. As the bi-pedal creature ponders over which foe is true, Numeron spits into the air a venomous gas. Remembering what to do if ever in this situation, electabuzz quickly darts away in hopes to flee the toxins. Unfortunate for him, the purple cloud gets larger and larger, forcing him to breathe in and become intoxicated again. The poison starts anew, and slowly begins to absorb his remaining energy away.

"Okay, Numeron," shouts Avenger as he opens up the seventh round, "I want you to use a Psychic attack - squeeze our foe's brain! Then use *Bomb Voyage. However, if you get a status effect, use Egg Bomb followed by Refresh."

Seeing that his pokémon is in a lot of trouble, Chris opens to his electabuzz, "We're getting torn apart!," he cries, "Teleport down to the last floor and guzzle down some antidote. Then relax for the rest of the round."

As Numeron proceeds to give electabuzz a harsh headache, electabuzz tries so desperately to concentrate just on getting the h-e-double hockey sticks outta there. His mind collapsing with every passing second, he manages to dissappear from the fifth floor of the department store. Where he goes, presumably the third floor where he was previously. The yellow and black colored pokémon races through the drug store floor hoping to find some more antidote. In his haste, he breaks a lot of the bottles which would've helped him had he not've been so hasty. Sighing, he grabs the last bottle and guzzles it down; his intoxication slowly fades away, defeated by the antidote.

Meanwhile, with no target for the duration of the round, Numeron simply relaxes, as he presumes his opponent is doing.

Using a communicator that he found in a cereal box, Chris 2.0 speaks to his electabuzz, "I want you to use Meditate and sharpen your senses. If you sense Numeron coming near, then release a Thunderwave in all directions. Hit him with an Ice Punch following that."

TBA then smirks to himself, coming up with another strategy, "Okay, Numeron," he muses, "I want you to find a ventilation duct. Then, carefully, apply a blast of Sleep Power through it, and lace it with Toxic. Hopefully, we'll be able to knock out his electabuzz."

Whilst electabuzz busies himself by doing yoga and hightening his senses, Numeron trots around gleefully in search of the abandoned department store's ventilation system. Within a few moments of searching, Numeron is able to locate the aforementioned ventilation system. He then proceeds to spray out two venomous powders – one that causes sleep, and another that causes poison. Hopefully with all the antidotes used up, electabuzz will soon succumb to the poison. The purple colored powders wander throughout the vents and eventually make their way to the third floor. Electabuzz still awaiting for his opponent inadvertently breathes in some of the stale air and becomes quite drowsy; the poison in the air also gave him a very familiar pain.

Okay, Numeron, apparently the Antidotes are used up; that's very good. For now, I want you to just chill. However, if Electabuzz comes after you, I want you to use some more Sleep Powder, and if you can, Dream Eater.

Relax/Sleep Powder/Dream Eater x3

[Chris 2.1]

*Continues to weep*

Buzz, I want you to combo teleport and ice punch to appeal behind your foe and deal a heavy blow. Then screech as loud as you can.

If you fall asleep, sleep talk.


Teleport + Ice Punch -- Screech (Sleep Talk at any point)

round nine

Similar to round eight; Avenger choices his attacks first and calls out to his grass pokémon, "Okay, Numeron," he says, "apparently the antidotes are all used up; that's very good. For now, I just want you to chill. However, if that electabuzz comes after you, I want you to use some more Sleep Powder and, if you can, Dream Eater."

A tear-stained face, Chris 2.0 speaks into his James Bond-esque communicator, "Buzz, I want you to combo Teleport and Ice Punch to appear behind your foe and deal a heavy blow. Then, Screech as loud as you can. If you fall asleep, use Sleep Talk instead!"

Out of nowhere, the yellow-and-black colored electabuzz appears behind his adversary, who is apparently resting. With electabuzz's hightened senses, he is able to tell which opponent is the real deal; his right arm once more encased in a frozen prison of ice, he draws it back and slams it into Numeron's back. Concentration lost, Numeron's clones instantly disappear. Numeron pulls himself back together, and before his opponent can do any more harm, he immediately spits out a cloud very similar to the one that infected electabuzz earlier. The creature's eyelids become heavier and heavier until he eventually succumbs to the slumber.

The dictionary defines a dream as a series of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations occurring involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. Certainly, electabuzz is having another. Very similar to round three, electabuzz surrounds himself into an ultra-surreal, very psychadellic world involving purple skies, blue trees, and for some reason... a very happy snowman. Electabuzz dances around for a moment before hearing his trainer's muffled words, "Sleep Talk!" The creature begins to mumble incoherently for a few moments until he spits out a very toxic, very dangerous red cloud. Outside of the dream world, Numeron becomes engulfed by electabuzz's actually purple cloud, and becomes poisoned. Unhappy, Numeron proceeds to consume the electabuzz's second dream, to which he becomes nourished. Electabuzz is forced out of slumber, and looks around to relocate himself.

Teleport to the roof of the Department store and let out a loud screech for the rest of the round.

[The Blue Avenger]

Okay, Numeron, Refresh. Then, put up a Reflect for protection from Chris' next Pokemon; finally, just chill.

Refresh ~ Reflect ~ Chill

Sorry, I'll stop

[The Blue Avenger]

Heheh, there'd be no point. You've got 8 HP, and Toxic will do 8 damage... besides, if I can prep myself for your next choice, so much the better, right?

round ten

The final round for the piddly electabuzz; let's see if he can go out with a bang. "Teleport to the roof of the department store," says Chris 2.0, "and let out a loud Screech for the rest of the round."

"Okay, Numeron, Refresh," says TheBlueAvenger, perhaps prepping for the next pokémon, "Then put up a Reflect for protection from Chris' next pokémon; finally, just chill."

It is at this point that Chris 2.0 gets into a childish hissy-fit, "You're... supposed... to... follow... ME!!" His voice boomed throughout the fifth floor of the department store, getting louder and louder with each word. Geez, for a Moderator, this kid sure doesn't behave properly. Anyway; we presume that electabuzz had teleported to the top of the department store because otherwise... what the hell is that noise? The large coconut tree pays it no mind as he quickly sheds his bark once more and ails his toxicity. An amused grin upon his features, Numeron then summons a silver veil to encompass him. The wall-like veil then quickly vanishes, and we presume now that electabuzz had keeled over. Chris sighs and aims his poké ball upwards before recalling the humanoid creature; don't ask me how the ball was able to reach him.

[Chris 2.1]

Right then.

I choose Volcanst (M Typhlosion)

[The Blue Avenger]

Oh zombie Jesus on a pogo-stick, we're screwed.

Okay, Numeron, first, send out a wide-spread Toxic cloud. Next, use a Psychic attack to compress our foe's windpipe - make it hard for him to breathe a bit. Finally, send out a Sleep Powder as well.

Toxic (cloud) ~ Psychic ~ Sleep Powder

[Chris 2.1]

Spray an ember to ignite the toxic flames as soon as you can. The explosion should hopefully hurt Numeron. Protect from the psychic attack and finally use a defence curl to curl into a ball and protect your snout from inhaling that powder.
