~*River VS Weasel Overlord {Ref: Saffire Persian}*~

[Pichu Luver]

[font=sylfaen] WO wanted a battle and I was up for some fun. ^^

Three on Three
One week DQ
Rules: No healing moves. Even those along the lines of Giga Drain. (heh, I like this rule). Satus healing are ok. Add any Rules you'd like WO
Arena: Beside a wide clear, rock bottom, slow moving river. Trees cover the area beside the river but the farther you go away from the river, the less trees and more open grassland. You can see the grassland through the trees, so it isn't overly thick.

I'll use Joa, my female Clamperl.

[Weasel Overlord]

[color=silver]And I shall use my newest addition;


Absol [M] Theo de Veren

EDIT: Bugger that for a jimmy, I'll attack first! ^^

Okay Theo my love, let's begin this match with a Thunderbolt! Follow up with an Iron Tail to try and break that clam's shell, then finish up with a Calm Mind!

~Thunderbolt ~Iron Tail ~Calm Mind

[Saffire Persian]

Because of your tempting offer, WO, I'll ref this. ^^

If you would, the battle that I need a ref for is Here

[Weasel Overlord]

[color=silver]AAye, that is perfectly fine-o, Saffire! ^^ *toodles off to begin* Prolly be up by Tuesday, at the latest. *pokes River* s'your turn, dear...

[Pichu Luver]

[font=sylfaen] Hmm sorry WO. Right first Joa I want you to use Double Team, confuse that Abby. Then use a Surf to sweep Theo away from you, so no headachiness. Then use a Mud Sport.

ROUND I

The river side is suddenly full of activity, clamoring with bird whistles and cries of avian pokémon from not far off – perhaps watching though keen eyes the battle that is about to take place. Two trainers stand, feet away from one another, by a gently flowing river, surrounded by a variety of flora.

River goes first, the Pokéball in her first landing on the ground. The device opens, revealing a bivalve creature: a Clampearl. The non-native land dweller opens up her shell and peers nervously around at the strange, un-watery scenery just as Weasel Overlord herself releases her own Pokémon: the legendary disaster Pokémon, Absol. Theo de Valene seems more at home among the trees, even if its far different from his own homeland of craggy mountainsides.

Familararities are given, and both beast and sea-dweller spring into action. Electricity sizzles at the Absol’s paws, gathering energy and shooting off against the slow, land-locked Clampearl as she shimmers with a silverfish light. She immediately splits into three identical beings, but the Thunderbolt, already aimed and launched, continues on its deadly path, striking the water-type Clampearl with a vengeance.

Body racked with pain, though her clones still in tact, the Clampearl begins to tap in to her water-powers. The river just a number of feet from them begins to move and become more hostile, frothing with white as the water swells to a mini-wave of sorts. Theo sees this, and buts on a burst of speed, his oddly-shaped tail glowing with a silver sheen as he prepares to strike – but his attack never connects. Instead of metal meeting shell, water meets fur as the high pressured water attack sweeps the Absol away through various leafy vegetation. The surge leaves behind damp, and in some spots muddy, ground, and a rather bedraggled Absol.

However, Theo does a supreme job at appearing unperturbed and at peace of himself. Ignoring the smirking Clampearl, he closes his eyes, breathing in and out deeply in a familiar pace and rhythm, paying heed to no outside noises. And a good thing, too, considering the clam is making a mess (and a deal of squelching noises) as she digs up a wad of nice, fresh river mud, throwing it on herself in attempts to protect her shelled body from electric assault.

ROUND II

Already covered in a copious amount of mud, Joa has no qualms in upping her defenses once more. At her bidding, a silver glow begins to encompass her whole body, but that light is soon snatched away, seemingly drained from the Clampearl and given to a very calm and collected-looking Theo de Veren, who is soon coated in a seemingly metallic finish.

Joa’s frustration is only doubled as Theo begins to let out a long string of very effective Taunts that only seem to rile up the bivalve Pokémon’s temper. The idea of using Confuse Ray has all but fled the little Clampearl’s mind, and instead tries to physically make her way over to the smirking Absol – though she only succeeds to make a real fool of herself, as she stumbles the only way a Clampearl – like a rock in the mud.

Theo continues to smirk, his ruby eyes glowing in an amused fashion as he watches the Clampearl flounder in the mud which she created. Though covered in it himself, he shows no worry, and starts to summon up a powerful wind that picks up various sharp debris and objects in hopes to counter Joa’s Blizzard; he can already feel it coming. The sharp, cold air is all around the area, seemingly taking on a rather bitter edge. Both attacks jet forth from the direction of their respective masters.

Chilling ice and cutting wind meet in an angry, tumultuous clash. A clash that lasts only seconds as the Blizzard – by far more powerful and strong – completely overwhelms Theo’s own wind, negating it while washing over the surprised Absol to a very chilling affect.

When it’s over, Theo’s not only coated in mud, but snow. Though he’s not frozen by any means, the mud around his forelegs has frozen onto him, and it seems he won’t be as mobile as before – at least, not until the snow and frozen mud melts away.

ROUND III

Another cerulean tide sweeps towards Theo as electricity crackles around his body, helping to crack some of the ice around his feet, before darting out into the rushing wave and towards their target. The Shockwave collides with the rush of water, zipping through the conductive force and finding the Clampearl with no problem, as well as decimating her remaining clones. With the water around the Clampearl as well, the electricity is all the more potent, and Joa is never so thankful for her protective mud layer.

The Surf breaks upon Theo, and the Absol twitches a little bit, getting zapped for a small amount of damage from the electricity coursing through the now still water. Growling, Theo opens his mouth, where a stark white beam of energy is collecting, taking on a greenish hue from the grassy field as well as a tinge of blue. The Secret Power impacts Joa’s shell as a blue beam of her own makes its way towards the water, freezing the liquid about Theo’s feet solid.

The Secret Power sends Joa reeling, her head spinning and her thoughts rattled – scattered like puzzle pieces. She can barely think properly, and she isn’t sure what to do, and in her confusion, her Water Pulse misfires, destroying some trees to the left. Theo, meanwhile, has no such confusion ailment, although he can barely move with his feet frozen. He still is able to conjure up a Shadow Ball, and the ghostly orb collides with the bivalve Pokémon, leaving her hurt, and a bit more addled, but alive.

ROUND IV

Joa, her mind already swimming in a sea of confusion, relaxes, taking in a series of deep meditative breaths that help clear her mind. Theo, meanwhile, is still rooted deeply in the frozen ice, unable to move much of anywhere – and thus far, the ice shows little sign of melting. The cold and damp Theo already feels increases as he tosses his head and summons up a storm of pouring, cold rain, making him a very bedraggled, rather miserable looking figure.

Joa, having come to her senses, begins to glow with a silvery aura, but seconds later, a dark aura impedes her own, Snatching the Iron Defense away in a jet of pure black light. The light flies back towards Theo, and he glows once more with a silver sheen, boosting up his defense by another two levels. He smirks.

Electricity bristles around his damp fur, giving him a little bit of a jolt as he launches the attack towards Joa, whose precious coating of mud is slowly sliding off her smooth shell. With a startled cry, she follows up with a beam that flashes with blue and green hues. Both electricity and energy slam into their respective targets. The electricity wrecks havoc to Joa, with the powerful blast sending her nerves afire, nearly paralyzing her with the attack. Theo, meanwhile, is not much better off, wheeling from the blow (but unable to go anywhere). His mind is more coherent than Joa’s, thanks to his calm mind, but it’s obvious the Absol isn’t thinking as clearly as he should be.

[color=silver]Okay Theo, let's begin with a Calm mind to sort out that confusion. Then, I want you to aim a Flamethrower at the ice freezing you to the ground. Hopefully it'll melt away like good ice... Then, let's finish up by taking advantage of that rain once more, and use another Thunder.

~Calm Mind ~Flamethrower (at the ice) ~Thunder

[Pichu Luver]

[font=sylfaen] Hmm, alright then Joa you let her use that Calmness, I want you to cause a Hailstorm. Then when the ice starts a falling, make your way to Theo. Wait until after he is done flaming and then get close use Confuse Ray right in his face. Then if he is too confused to attack you, use Iron Defense, if he is still capable of Thundering you, use Protect. While you right up close to him, hopefully he'll get some backlash and hurted eyes.

ROUND V

Coated in a fine, silver sheen, the pseudo-steel covered Absol closes his eyes, taking long, deep breaths and focusing his thoughts and mind. The confusion plaguing his brain slowly fades away into nothing but a dull, swimming sensation... but even as he opens his eyes to prepare for his next attack, a dozen, tiny raindrops fall from the sky to the ground. Those rain drops are joined by more, soon turning into hardened hail-crystals that seem to annoy both parties, though the hopping Joa is more protected with her hard shell.

Grimacing at the sudden coldness to the air, Theo breathes in, exhaling a white-hot blast of fire at the ice just at his feet. The heat from the Flamethrower melts the ice in a matter of seconds, nearing searing the approaching Joa (who is making very little progress movement wise) hops towards him. Getting as close as she dares (as the Absol is now unfrozen) the bivalve Pokémon glows brightly, sending a searing flash of white throughout the arena.

Theo hisses as the light plays havoc with his brain, but his calm and rather meditative state helps him keep his head enough to gather up the electricity within his body, and launch it at the opponent. The Thunder clatters noisily off the conjured shield now placed in front of the Clampearl, dying away while leaving the water-type unscathed. Meanwhile, the Hail continues to pelt the surface, while drops of rain (though fewer than before) still litter the ground every now and then, making for a very odd site.

ROUND VI

An echoing, harsh screech pierces the hail-stricken air, as Joa opens her shell. But the annoying sound seems to do little to displace the Absol in front of Joa. His eyes are closed, and his breath is deep and calm. Inwardly, the ringing does annoy him to quite some degree, but the unnatural calmness he's experiencing helps ward off the ringing sounds that threaten to cloud his mind. However, the noise still pings, and Theo fails to descend deep into the calming effects of the Psychic move, and fails to feel the usually instant stat up.

Joa doesn't notice this, clapping her shell angrily at Theo's non-reactant display. Still scowling, she splits into three identical others, hail and rain pelting mercilessly against her shell, becoming icier by the minute. Theo serves to annoy the bivalve even further, as multiple jets of yellow light streak towards her, vanquishing her clone while delivering another nasty shock.

Joa's bad luck increases as she closes her mind to Relax. But even her calmed state can't help her against the sudden strike of heavy thunder as it strikes her, covering her completely in its bright yellow light. When it disappears, and the pain and electric sparks fade away into manageable tolerance, Joa feels quite aptly fried. Not to mention the rattle of ice does little to relieve the sudden stiffness in her body, which leaves the Absol to gloat at his success at the round, despite the tiredness that's beginning to overtake him.

ROUND VII

Closing his eyes, the Absol assumes a relaxed stance, paying little to no attention to what's happening around him. Instead, he focuses his mind and attempts to relax and take a breather from the current battle. The clattering of the hail does little to help him in his endeavor, but he tries to manage to tune out the annoying pings of ice. With his eyes closed, he can't see the persistent Joa clumsily hopping towards him - which made for an amusing site, and her paralysis doesn't help either.

It takes her a few rather embarrassing hops, nearly sliding on some of the ice that still remains. Then, mustering her energy, she jettisons her shelled body forward, opening her shell, and clamping it at the nearest object she can reach, which happens to be Theo's chin, her body far too small to fully emcompass the Absol's face.

Already feeling the Absol respond to the attack, though it is barely a ping to his metal-sheened body, Joa takes a deep breath, and lets out a ringing supersonic vibration. Theo hisses, the stinging sound piercing his ears. It's an annoyance, and his mind can't help but be a little jumbled, though he's still faring better than most.

With a growl, Theo shakes his head rapidly, trying to be rid of the annoying creature that has decided to clamp on him; it's the only thing he can think about.

Relaxation forgotten, he yowls, leaping forward and with an almighty toss of his head, he sends Joa flying across the turf, before the idea of attacking finally cliques in his brain. Still confused, yet the goal of frying the annoying shell-thing imbedded in his mind, electricity crackles around his feet, before jettisoning out the Absol's body, striking Joa. The electricity serves to kindle her paralysis, rending her unable to retaliate.

ROUND VIII

Head still spinning from the confusion, Theo growls, fur bristling as he begins to taunt the clam from across the terrain. Joa stiffens, protesting angrily, her swagger forgotten. Hopping up and down, ignoring the stiffness in her muscles, she bounds towards the resting Theo, more than happy to attack the good-for-nothing Absol that had the nerve to insult her.

Opening her shell wide as she comes into jumping range, she leaps towards him, vindictively clamping onto his face. Theo hisses in annoyance, shaking his head rapidly to try and get her off. She doesn't let go, bound and determined to annoy the Absol as much as possible.

As Theo's annoyance rises, and his thrashes become more focused and powerful - nearly dislodging her - she begins to build up a sphere of ice-type energy just before her. Letting go, she shoots out the Ice Beam, hitting the Absol in the chest and successfully freezing the fur around his chest. Joa skids across the turf, shell closed as she rips the damp, hail scattered terrain. Only when she stops does she open her shell and observe her angry, but resting opponent, watching her through his blood-red eyes, promising vengeance when he gets the chance.

ROUND IX

Electrical fury bristles around the Absol's brilliant white mane, crackling across the ice as the electrical energy flares. The powerful bolt of electric energy surges at the Clampearl, meeting little resistance as it passes through the wall-like barrier.

Theo's impassive face turns into a grin as the electrical energy helps to freeze Joa's already tight muscles, rendering her move orders useless, so she relaxes instead. Theo, however, is unable to do anything as well. He glows with a orange energy for a moment just in case, but it serves no purpose whatsoever.

Absolutely hopping to get revenge, Joa retaliates by sending a blur of pure white energy, tinged with colors from the nearby surroundings, towards the mountain inhabiting Pokémon. The counter glow is around him again, but it does nothing to counter against the energy thrown against him. It melts and cracks the ice around his chest, and sends him skidding backwards from the impact, sending his head reeling once again.

.. and he had just got over the confusion too. And the twittering, though fading pounding of the hail does nothing to help it either.

Right so, Ice Beam times 2. Then Relax. Or Protect if she tries to twack you at any time. Not much we can do here, see how the Randomizer does it. Oo'''

--will delete this post later-- Basically, I use a randomizer to determine whether or not a Pokemon gets confused/paralyzed.

Basically, it's randomnized to spit out three numbers (1 for each turn). And if they're below 15 (aka 15% chance of paralysis) then you get paralyzed, unless there's some outweighing reason why it should not be. XD

Hey, no worries. I wasn't blamin you on the randomizer. ^^ I was just making a joke cause it really relies on how it feels like treating us, lol. Just wanted to note I gave 2 points to you in the Christmas tree as well. A bit back so its on the first page. ^^ Enjoy!

Okay Theo, let's Relax twice, and then using the energy you hopefully regained, strike out with a Thunderbolt to hopefully end this round!

ROUND X

Dead tired and near collapse, the disaster Pokémon closes his eyes gratefully, knowing that he's leaving himself open, but also knowing he can't attack until he's rested. An Ice Beam jolts through him mercilessly, and Theo is forced to endure it as he gains back his much needed energy. And with his focused mind, he helps clear away the anger and confusion clouding his judgement.

Like clockwork, a second beam of ice-elemental energy slams into his chest, freezing some of it, while decreasing his own body temperature.

Theo then opens his eyes, feeling more cold, but more rested as he prepares a final attack. Electricity shimmers in waves across his body, crackling as if eager to attack their master's foe. With a growl, Theo sends a fierce rain of electric tendrils across the ground, where they race each other to reach the shelled water-type. Joa, knowing exactly what will happen if it hits, tries to conjure up a powerful shield to brush away the lightning, but just as she begins, her muscles freeze up, and she is forced to take the electric blow. Joa barely has the time to cry out as the Shockwave wrecks havoc on her already weak body. Black dots abound in front of her eyelids, and it takes only a second to welcome the black oblivion of unconsciousness.
