Gym Battle: Silencer vs Chris 2.0 REF NEEDED

[Chris 2.1]

All I wanted was for you to explain. Your sub interpretation makes sense, but I'm not sure whether it should be random.. Thanks Andrew!

Ok my choice is Callomuso, my [M] Octillery! Come on Cal! Use a water pulse to start off with, then use a bullet seed and end with psybeam! An all out assault!

[Silencer]

Use a double team. It should be able to confuse him enough to not hit with the water pulse. The bullet seed will probably be spread so we'll follow up with cruch claw and we'll finish with earthquake

Double Team~Cruch Claw~Earthquake

[Andrew]

Chris, the random comes from basically putting 10% chance either way and then randomizing! Very easy. It can be within 10% up or down of the specified target number. Hopefully stopping people giving specific numbers lol. I am presuming you want Octillery to be on the street and that hideous looking sandslash is just... atrocious.

[Chris 2.1]

Yea on the street please. Thanks Andrew - this match is going really smoothly and not dragging on like a dying animal.

[Silencer]

Why is my pokémon, uuuum... *googles the word*

1 : extremely wicked, brutal, or cruel : BARBARIC
2 : APPALLING, HORRIFYING <the atrocious weapons of modern war>
3 a : utterly revolting : ABOMINABLE <atrocious working conditions> b : of very poor quality <atrocious handwriting>

Damn complicated words. I aint American or English, how am I supposed to know that...

[Andrew]

Sorry about the delay, see my LJ.

Sorry about the delay, my LJ had details.

Round... (What are we up to?)

As we leave the descimated Aquarium behind, we have moved to the streets as residents scream in panic and run, seeing their "Beloved" Gym Leader has returned, yet again! Silencer gives a grim smile, happy they're both down one, but sad he lost a good deal of finger licking good beef (With 12 different herbs and spices).

Chris 2.0 However is ready to roll, releasing his red Octillery, Calimuso... who unfortunately suffers from SNS (Shitty Nickname Syndrome) who sticks to the black asphalt road. People abandon cars mid-way and run with their babies and children to safety as Silencer releases a female Sandslash named Toph (WTF, really) who has disgustingly coloured spines.

Our battlers yell their attacks and we survey the scene. It's mid-morning, near abandoned.... it's like a city-war zone... without the war. Yet. Cars abandoned around, people scurrying for safety, groceries and shopping bags left on the street... Our Sandslash gives a shimmer as five clones stand in a semi-circle around dear old Octillery who decides to release his highly pressurised and dense water pulse... into a clone.

Sandslash smirks and rushes at Octillery with a claw just looking plain EVIL. The clones also comply and Octillery fires off a Bullet Seed Wildly, hoping to hit something. With a seed passing through two clones, the tail-end of the attack hits Sandslash (4 Damage to Sandslash), but not soon enough to deter any attack as Octillery is sent reeling (Suction Cups on three appendages removed from the ground due to the force). (1o damage to the Calimari...)

Sandslash seems to have the upper hand at the moment. Things don't get any better for Octillery as Sandy bashes his foot into the ground, sending a tremor throughout the city, but most powerfully in the local area. (11 damage to Octillery) The road begins to buckle as there are sewers and an underground car-park right below the CBD Street. Another tremor in the area could send our battlers tumbling down a couple of levels.

Octillery, severely shaken (I have little sympathy for gross seafood.. or any seafood actually) tries to compose itself, it fires off a pretty lackluster Psybeam at our Toph, who takes the hit fairly well. (7 damage to Sandslash) It's a pity the octillery isn't more mobile on land.

So, thus ends the round...

Alright, let's use an earthquake at the moment he tries to use his first move. If he relaxes you relax to. If any moves left use the debris for a rock slide and finish with another crush claw.

Earthquake~Rock Slide~Crush Claw
sub: Relax

[Andrew]

Lol. Have fun plummetting to your doom.

[Silencer]

I'm aiming for the car park. Besides, Callomuso will plummet with me and I've already shown how I like doom. Long live Earthquake the vilest move EVER.

[Chris 2.1]

Hmm just something to consider Andrew - I would have thought Octillery might be more mobile on land due to the way its designed. It isn't like an octopus which has eight tentacles sticking out everywhere; it has six behind it and two infront. In fact I've only seen Octillery on land in the anime and they move ok.

Cheers for the reffing; don't worry about LJ-related absences.

Ok first after earthquake use a water pulse. Then I want you to fire an ice beam. If you are trapped within the rocks, use psychic instead to move one or more apart and for your last action fire off a swift. If not, end with a blizzard as it comes in to crush claw.

Water Pulse -- Ice Beam/Psychic (Rocks) -- Blizzard/Swift

[Silencer]

I ordered the E-quake for when my pokémon sees you charge up an attack. Wonder how Andreew will interpret it.

[Chris 2.1]

use an earthquake at the moment he tries to use his first move

That's what you ordered. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

[Silencer]

So does Andrew still have the last round and perhaps the attacks?

Round...

What is this?

Argh, I'm exhausted, 4am starts are NOT HOT! But nonetheless I AM HERE TO REF BECAUSE I AM AWESOME!


Our two battlers face off... and on, and off again.... And we're waiting for someone to make the first move in order to trigger the attacks. In the end, Sandy, being a grumpy bitch pounds the earth and the ground buckles and gives way.... To the sewers beneath. However, the octa takes damage too! (11 damage to Octi)

Haha. Sucks 2 be you. "So there we was. Plum-metting to our doom" (Foxxy Love) and they land into the shallow sewers. (7 Damage to Sandslash and Octi). Octi and Sandslash into some knee-deep CRAP. Lols. You're all infected now. I'd hate to be face down in that crap. Octillery, remembering it's moves, fires off it's Water Pulse into Sandslash, thankfully removing a used tampon from it's scales(10 Damage to Sandslash). However, the hallucenations start thanks to the water Pulse.

Sandslash begins to bathe itself with the waste crap, totally forgetting it is CRAP. There are chunks of road around, but thankfully the creature forgets it's second move. Octillery however smirks... as best it can, and fires off an Ice Beam which hits Sandslash with an audible CRACK, freezing it's lower left side. (10 damage to Sandslash) Sandslash, absolutely filthy, dryretches and readies it's final move, Crush Claw. Octillery however has tapped into it's icy side, and as Sandslash comes rushing with it's claw, hits a heavy Blizzard (13 Damage to Sandslash) and further glazes over it's left side. Octillery however takes a glancing blow from the Crush Claw (6 Damage) as it is sent off-target due to the Blizzard....

Ow, a heavy damage round.

Arena: Think the buffy sewers, but knee deep-crap and above the the town. Debris around. Ew. Below, carparks.

Round.... 61

First off Octillery fires off a Sludge Bomb and it peppers Sandslash for some good damage (9 damage), however Sandslash's owner, Silencer is being a REAL bastard! However, Sandslash, Toph stomps her foot and down comes another EQuake (11 damage to Octillery) and the ground shatters, in a stream of rubble (8 damage to both battlers) down to the underground carpark. They land on the back of a ute. Both of our battlers are covered in crap, and the sewage has dispersed around the arena.

Octillery however summons up a pretty crappy surf which struggles to hit Sandslash (5 damage), but Sandslash falls off of the back of the ute, on it's head, leaving it a bit stunned. But, shatters the ice on it.

For our final move, Octillery uses an Ice Beam (11 damage due to Sandy being wet), frosting over Sandslash's legs which are in the air. Sandslash, strugges to drag itself upright, and fires off a Hyper Beam, smacking poor old Octi's head. (12 Damage to the octapus) The force slamming it into the cab of the ute. Ow.


ENDT!

Arena - An underground carpark with extra re-inforcement to prevent caveins! Cars are all around! Shops directly above! A little water dispersed around. Chunks of concrete.

Earthquake~Seismicc Toss+Skull Bash

Chris 2.0: We're in a carpark, so I want you to use your first action leaping onto a car so that you absorb less of the earthquake. if you can still use an attack, then use another ice beam to freeze it more. As it's leaps up to grab you with its seismiccy goodness, fire an octazooka in its face for type advantage and to ruin its vision. Next use blizzard.


Leap (+ Ice Beam if possible) -- Octazooka -- Blizzard

After a long delay (In which our delightful referee has moved house, worked two jobs (Quit one! Yay) and since had a relapse of glandular fever, I drop this onto you as per Christmas Eve. (I also totally am getting the net at my new swanky place as per 2nd January. THANK GOD. I can illegally download again! Hello Doctor Who XMas Special and Torchwood!)

But, like.... we're in rubbly carpark, the octi's on the back of a ute. Toph has his legs frozen and we're off! Toph begins by trying to at least lift his legs, but, well, they're frozen. The seismic energy fractures it a bit, but with no ooomph behind it. HE FAILS.

Octillery however really isn't a ... leaping Pokemon... perhaps if he had bones... or like, could propel himself out of the water I'd believe it... but not on land. He uselessly tries to leap around, and in the end goes with a half-assed IceBeam instead (11 damage).

Toph winces in pain, and thankfully doesn't suffer a further frosting over. However, he tries REALLY hard to reach over and GRAB Octillery, but, unfortunately, his best, just isn't good enough.

Octillery snickers, as best an octapus can, and fires off a black Octazooka at Toph, who, pretty uselessly tries to resist the attack as it smacks him in the face. Goodnight ugly Toph. Here's to hoping you both get good nicknames for XMas.

I know it's christmas but, well
a) Andrew your live journal may be up to date on how perillously dangerous, exciting and pink your life us but you can't expect people to check there. Absence Tower for absences over 3 days so the people in ThePokeMastersASBOpolis can know not to bitch about your lack of work.

b) Octillery is not an Octopus. Girafarig is not a Giraffe. Dodrio is not a dodo. I know Octopi (?) cannot jump but you have to see my point in that Octillery seems to be able to battle on land judging by the way its body and tentacles have been 'configured'. It is an artillary-based Pokemon and its anime appearences have all shown it on land (I believe the Whirl Cup one showed it in water briefly but it looked crudely drawn).

But needless to say that was a good round, and we appreciate your commitment to this battle.

Cal watch out. Strike it with flamethrower, a rock blast and an aurora beam. If rain dance is used, substitute the first action for ice beam.

[Silencer]

Let out a nice flash and blind that thing. Don't forget to dodge the flamethrower afterwards. Then strike twice with thunderbolt.

flash~Thunderbolt(x2)

and I must say I have never heard of rock blast before

[Chris 2.1]

Its basically a 5 turn attack that gets stronger with each sucessive hit. in the games anyway. theres an ice version called ice ball.

[Chris 2.1]

Reminder for Andrew

[Elec Man EXE]

Rock Blast doesn't go 5 turns. Its got an attack that hits 2-5 times. Its like Fury Swipes or Bullet Seed. Only difference being its got a base power of 25 per hit, so its actually a decent attack.

Rollout is the Rock-type attack that goes for 5 turns, getting stronger each turn. Ice Ball is the same as Rollout though, yes.

Yes, I am a nerd.

[Silencer]

Should we get a sub?

[Chris 2.1]

Yea sure

[Andrew]

God no! Mitts off of my battle!

Chris 2.0 vs Silencer.

Our two battlers are eager to get going, (I however, would like to be, just that keeping my house and employment whilst moving, doing exams and looking after my mum who's been in hospital seem to have a slight degree of importance behind it.) and for that I apologize. But, such is life and it trundles on.

BATTLE

Our two battlers are miles away, as Silencer brings out his final Pokemon, the odd choice of Voltbeat on the surface of Goldenrod, looking down into the massive hole where the poor battered and exhausted Octillery lies with his lack of bone structure. Much like a Tentacool, but at least he has cartlidge.

Voltbeat and the trainers are outside the hole, looking out and I kind of remember something to do with a poor Hoppip being inside a hole.... Oh well.

Octillery conjures up some of it's dwindling energy and attempts to strike, but at the top of the hole, Voltbeat is hovering around, and unleashes a Flash. Octillery on top of it's ute squints and doesn't do much but set a nearby convertable with a leather top on fire. Oh dear. I hope they have Octillery Insurance.

Octillery is a tad blinded and uses it's tentacles to blindly grab a few surrounding rocks to blast up through the two layers of earth. Managing to grab 4 (1 rock for two tentacles) it is hurled upwards and three out of four manage to absolutely miss Voltbeat, but one does hit it for good damage (8 Damage to Voltbeat)

Voltbeat's ass however is charging Electrical Energy and manages to fry our fishy friend with a nasty Thunderbolt (11 Damage) Feeling absolutely exhausted, Octillery's eyesight returns to it as it fires off a wide Aurora Beam whiuch is totally pretty. Like, who wouldn't like to visit a hole in the ground with pretty lights! I KNOW I WOULD. But this chilly and wide beam strikes Voltbeat for some more good damage (7 Damage). But Octillery stops, very close to exhaustion, recieves another Thunderbolt straight from the ass of that bug. (12 Damage)

Round = Something Or Other!

Well, for this quick series of events, our Orange Octi summons up the last of his abysmal energy supplies for one final attack. Voltbeat however zooms right into action, slamming into Calimuso just as it exhales and starts off it's final attack. Getting the initial brunt of the attack, Voltbeat is cold, but satisfied at the result.

Calimuso, after a grand battle, has fallen. AWww... sad.

I'm using my Male Snorlax Armada for this. We will battle away from this gaping hole and will fight at the other end of the street, beneath the monorail.

Armada use a flamethrower, next use body slam and end with fire punch. If it flies away to evade, then use flamethrower instead. If rain dance is used, then switch to ice beams.


Flamethrower/Ice Beam -- Body Slam/Flamethrower/Ice Beam -- Fire Punch/Flamethrower/Ice Beam

Our respective trainers move further down the street away from the gaping hole filled with cars, sewage and rubble and all the surrounding skyscrapers have been evacuated for good measure.

Our Brittish Mod releases a large fat Snorlax who hopefully isn't as Emo as Number 6 and Voltbeat gives a slight tremble of fear facing it down. Voltbeat, being somewhat more responsive than a tub'o'lard begins by summoning 4 additional double team clones, encircling Armada. Armada starts off by breathing out a stream of flammable gasses and ignites it from the back of his throat, sending out a stream of flame at Voltbeat who looks somewhat constipated.

Alas, it anhilates one clone, as it flickers out of existance. Voltbeat and it's remaining 3 clones rush at Snorlax and sock a nasty Focus Punch directly into his gut. (13 Damage to Snorlax) Groaning in pain, Snorlax tries to bodyslam or "fall on top of" the escaping clones and Voltbeat. He manages to take out two more as he falls over. Voltbeat and it's one clone look stressed as Snorlax drags it's flabby ass up and with a firey fist and it begins to generate a hula-hoop of static electricity, a thunderwave. But, as it tries to hurl it at Snorlax, Voltbeat's electric attack is drawn up to the Trainlines. Unfortunate.

As it tries to prepare for the blow, Voltbeat doesn't particularly like the punch, and destroying it's last clone in the process. (9 Damage to Volty) Armada had a few issues this round, but came back at the end.
