-~*River VS Elec Man EXE {Ref: Saffire Persain}*~-

[Elec Man EXE]

Hmm... that was a rather painful round... Reflect seems much less effective than Swords Dance. But anywho, Celeste, don't give up just yet. Let that thing whip up the sand, then start a Rain Dance to cancel that out, and I'm sure a ground type won't like the rain either. Then use a Teleport to dodge that incoming sludge, and follow that up by hitting her with Ice Punch. Get some revenge for that 4x weakness against Equinox.

[Pichu Luver]

Right . . . Elec Man do you want to DQ this or try to get a sub ref? As it stands yeah'd only get one point and I get two *curses the one HP point* Er, I'll just pop over to the Tower and see if we can't get a sub for a few rounds . . . Mah sis said to just do that --'''

[Elec Man EXE]

I'd much prefer getting a sub to dropping the battle outright. Partly because I'm losing, and partly because dropping battles is blah. If we can actually find one, refs seem to be in short supply again.

[Saffire Persian]

*takes up River's offer*

It'll be a good chance to repay Elec Man, too for reffing a couple of mine.

*pokes River* Here If you could Ref that one, that'd be great. I'll get you and Elec's Reffing up shortly.

[Pichu Luver]

*bounces around in a circle and looks like a total loon* Yay! Thankie so much Saffire! I appriciate it a lot, and I'm sure Elec Man does too. ^^

[Elec Man EXE]

Aye, thankee Saffire. Much appreciated.

[Saffire Persian]

Umm.. I dunno what's with Gligar's energy starting at zero and then going to nine.. so I just subtracted 9 from 100 @_@ And..erm.. Crystal didn't note the Swords Dance bonus.. I assume he still has that.

Round Twelve

Growling, Whalet launches himself into the air, glowing with a faded brown numbus as he picks up speed and begins to spin around in a tight circle. Immediatly, a gust of wind begins to pick up around Whalet, forming a spinning vortex that picks up whatever debris (In this case, sand, dirt, rocks, and grass) as he can. Soon, the air is filled with debris, mostly dirt and grass, more of an annoyance than a visibility hindrance.

Celeste, wincing as the particles of dirt, rocks, and dust buffer her smooth skin. She lifts up her hands and trunk, and begins to move her whole body to a silent beat, mimicking the water-shamans of her kind, beseeching rain to fall. Two second afterwards, it does. From the sky, droplets of water turn to sheets of cold rain until both opponents feel the water seeping into their skin.

Whalet, suffice to say, is not pleased. He hisses, batting at the fallen rain with his claw, frowning in displeasure as the rain continues to fall. As he's unable to do anything about it, he turns his attention to Celeste, who looks rather uncomfortable in the rain, but pleased with the demoralizing effect it's having on her foe. Whalet, his anger rising, gathers up the toxins inside his body, forming it into a great, purple glob of acidic goo, spitting it out of his mouth at Celeste. The poisonous orb is just about to collide with Celeste's form, when she vanishes, eliciting a cry of surprise from the Gligar.

He has barely enough time to turn around, when Celeste phases back into existence just behind him, her fist covered in an icy glow. Grinning, she slams her hand into the Whalet's small body, sending an icy aura jolting across it, leaving bits of tough ice crystal in its wake that weighs and numbs his body down.

Shivering, the Gligar collides with the dirt, picking himself up until he's ungainly splayed across the grass on all fours, bits of ice stuck across his usually tough skin. He shakes his head to rid himself of the pain and cold, opening his mouth and spitting out an army of pointed yellow stars, which enlarge and expand, slicing the air as they collide with the Drowzee. Many clink harmlessly against her reflect, but the rest cut into Celeste's skin with a vengeance, leaving harsh, red lines in their wake.

I think Crystal refs energy in a reverse manor... meaning it starts at 0, then goes up to 100. It'd make a bit more sense if it was called Fatigue, probably, but I think thats how it works anyway. Seems you got Whalot's right, but Celeste's is way too low (should have started at... eh, 63 last round).

Alrighty Celeste, we've gotta try and do some major damage here to pull off a win. Start off with another Ice Punch to get him a bit more frozen, go for the wings to better inhibit his flight. But if he manages to escape into the air where you can't reach him, use a Shadow Ball instead. Then, spew a Poison Gas at him. And finally, give him yet another Ice Punch, again going for the wings. If he's out of your reach, Secret Power.

Ice Punch / Shadow Ball ~ Poison Gas ~ Ice Punch / Secret Power

[Saffire Persian]

Ooh, I see. I thought Celete's was normal and CT had just made a typo on Whalot's. I'll fix that right away.

[Pichu Luver]

Rightoe, Whalat I would like you to do thus:

First use Faint Attack to avoid that Ice Punch/Shadow Ball/whatever it will be and slam him from behind. Then get far enough away and use Razor Wind to blow back that poison at Celeste. Then I want you to use Rock Tomb to trap that bugger and stop her annoyingness. Hopefully.

Round Thirteen

Shivering at his mildly ice-encrusted body, Whalat tries to pick himself up, the rain drumming down on his earth-based body, making him even more uncomfortable than before. It doesn't make his frozen status much better either, and he only disappears mere seconds before Celeste would have reached him, her Ice Punch slamming harmlessly into the grass, freezing a small area of ground and her icy touch.

Frustrated, Celeste looks around, trying to spot her flying foe, before a sudden blow strikes her side, causing her to spin around and finally spot the reappeared Gligar. Inhaling through her long, elephantine nose, she then precedes to breathe out a cloud of thick, poisonous gas at the cold Gligar, who tries to scramble ungainly out of the way, but is still caught in the cloud of smoke.

Coughing and spluttering, the fumes burning his eyes, Whalot begins to twirl around as fast as his cold body can, making a vortex of swirling wind, blowing away the poisonous gas with a vengeance, sending a good part of it right back at Celeste.

It's the tapir's turn to cough as she breathes in the toxic attack of her own making, accompanied by a harsh, scratching wind that scratches at her body, though her Reflect helps buffer it considerably. Wheezing, with no way to dispel the smoky substance, she tries to run out of the cloud into a clearer part of the meadow, coughing like mad. She makes it out, though she can already feel the toxins begin to pollute her blood.

Whalot grins at this, watching her body as she runs out of the thick cloud, now being somewhat dispersed by the rain, as he had lost sight of her for a moment, but frowns as Celeste opens her mouth, sending a brilliant white beam cutting through the grasses, turning a very green hue. The attack slams into the Gligar's body, making him reel back a bit, barely able to keep his position in the air - especially when a sudden stiff sensation accompanies his every movement of his suddenly stiff limbs, finding himself unable to preform his last action.

Thanks for taking on the GF Saffire. ^^

So Whalat, I would like you to use, Earthquake, Sludge Bomb, and Swift. If he tries to something status-y, use Protect, Detect, Protect, in that order, but always start with Protect. Sub in Faint Attack if he tries an Ice Punch or Secret Power.

Earthquake/Sludge Bomb/Swift
Sub: Protect thingy, Faint Attack

[Elec Man EXE]

Hoo boy. We got ourselves quite a challenge here Celeste, but lets see if we can pull it off. I want you to start off with Psychic, grab a hold of Whalot and hold him in the air. If he can't hit the ground, he can't cause a quake. Squeeze him to do damage as you deem fit, but the main focus of the attack is to keep him from using Earthquake, so don't waste too much concentration on damage and lose your grip. Then, use another Psychic, this time grab a hold of that sludgey projectile and throw it back at Whalot. If you can't throw it back, then at least deflect it away from yourself. And finally, lets borrow from your teammates with Assist, and hope for something good.

Round Fourteen

Rain sucks... at least, in Whalat's very humble opinion it does. Of course, there's nothing he can say or do about it as the rain continues to put a damper on his fighting spirit, making much of the dirt around him liquify into a rather muddy substance. Muddy and dreary as it is, Whalot forces himself to fly upwards, preparing to dive on a one-way collision course to the earth; however, things don't happen quite as the Gligar gleefully imagined.

Instead of flinging himself at the ground with reckless abandon, the Gligar feels a Psychic aura take hold of his body, forcing him into a rigid, uncomfortable squeezing position in mid-air. It isn't extremely painful, and the Psychic doesn't seem to be scrambling up his mind too much, but he can't move. Well, he can wiggle, but the Gligar really doesn't fancy that as moving. He fancies it as looking like some sort of idiot who can't glide properly.

Abandoning Plan A, Whalat moves into Attack Stage B as Celeste mentally relaxes her grip and lets go of him. A slimy, hate-filled projectile launches from Whalat's open mouth, and the pseudo-paintball nearly hits its target, but the Psychic intervention grabs the Sludge Bomb and flings it back at Whalat, firmly socking him in the face, coating him in nasty, acidic sludge.

For once, Whalat is quite glad that it's raining, as it helps wash the sludge off from his body, and take away the acidic sting. Now, the flying scorpion is out for revenge, summoning up a barrage of five pointed Ninja stars that successfully scour Celeste's skin just as Whalat's muscles begin to seize painfully.

Celeste bears the hit and retaliates with a metallic screech as the rain finally dissipates. The sound causes Whalat to cringe instinctively, unable to cover his ears in time as his eardrums ring with the awful sound akin to nails on a chalkboard with the accompaniment of a bad Metal Band. Celeste cringes a bit as well, but more from the poison and less from the horrid sound.

Alright Celeste, lets capitalize on that Metal Sound with an all-out special assault. We've gotta try and close the damage gap. Start off with Shadow Ball. Follow up with another Assist, maybe luck will stay on our side. Finish up with a Psychic assault, this time directly on her mind and concentrated on causing as much pain as possible.

Shadow Ball ~ Assist ~ Psychic

[Pichu Luver]

Alright, let's try this, use Sword Dance to try and make you feel a little better. Then use, Faint Attack x Two.

Round 15

With the rain gone, Whalat can't help but breathe a sigh of relief as he shakes off a few remaining water droplets and ice from his skin as he prepares to go into a Sword Dance. Twisting about sharply, he starts to spin in a tight circle - but the spin is cut short as his muscles freeze and leave him hovering in mid-air, hardly able to move, and therefore, unable to deflect the Shadowball that is thrown at him. The ball hits the Gligar in the face, exploding upon contact.

Whalat, feeling a bit winded by the small explosion, nevertheless disappears from view, leaving Celeste at a loss of where to aim her attack. Grimacing, she taps into her Psychic power, randomly borrowing one of her comrade's attacks, releasing a torrent of flames upon her next exhale of breath. The fire unfortunately misses, and Whalat, snickering, hits Celeste roughly in the side, causing her to spin around, Psychic aura flaring a deep, violent shade of purple.

Before he can start to disappear out of sight, the Psychic finds him, wrecking havoc upon his Psyche before the full effect of the Faint Attack kicks in and he vanishes, the dark swirls about him leaving now trace as to his whereabouts. However, it's soon known seconds later as Whalat reappears and strikes with his right claw, Celeste shuddering at the dark-type strike, as well as the poison.

Bugger...

Alright Celeste, there's really no chance for us to pull a victory out of this. So lets just use Metronome and see what happens. I doubt you'll last long enough, but if you get a chance then use a second Metronome. And if by some extreme bit of luck you're still up, then another Assist.

Energy, luck, and health just about spent, Celeste prepares to go out with a (hopeful) bang. Using both hands, she moves them rhythmically back and forth until they find a certain, unique rhythm. Then, from out of no where, a barrage of leaves appear, shooting towards her opponent with a vengeful force. The leaves slash into Whalat's body, making him cry out in pain, before retaliating with a set of five-pointed stars, neatly sending Celeste into unconsciousness.

Thanks so much Saffire! ^^ It's really appreciated. Nice battle Elec, if only I could of beaten you in the GF --''' Lol, *shakes hand*, later!

Good job Celeste. Not a victory, but you put up a good fight, and now you can evolve.

Yah, thanks for picking this battle up and getting it done Saffire. Very much appreciated... you rock (still ).

And as for you River... you evilly slaughtered my Kabuto with your dastardly Solar Beam. Meanie . But good battle nonetheless. A rather thorough trouncing, have to get one of those every once in a while to keep my head from getting too big and asploding. *returns handshake*
