I challenge Lady Vulpix! (Subsubref: River)

[The Blue Avenger]

Aheheh... since you joined, I feel compelled to battle you.

Rules: 3 v 3, one out at a time
I send out first, you attack first.
Banned moves: Direct recovery (eg, Recover, not Giga Drain), Attract
DQ: 1 week
Arena: Final Destination
A wide, flat arena with no obstacles. If a Pokemon falls off the edge into the void, a giant glove, Master Hand, will put them back on stage at a penalty of 5% health.

I'll begin things with my male Lotad, Jimmy T.

[Everoy]

I'm almost scared to ref this battle just because of who's battling, but I'll ref.

[The Blue Avenger]

Rockin'! Thanks, man. No worries, just do your best.

[Lady Vulpix]

Oh! I have 2 pokemon already battling. Can they be in 2 battles at the same time? How does that work?

Sorry for delaying things.

[Everoy]

Yep, they can.

[Lady Vulpix]

Alright, then. I call Chip, the male Eevee.

Chip, start with a Shadow Ball, then hit your opponent with a Headbutt, and use Bite when you're close enough. At any time, if Jimmy T uses Toxic, counter with a Toxic of your own instead.

And Jeff, rate my battle.

[The Blue Avenger]

Right-o, Jimmy T., start with a quick Double Team. As Chip comes in for a Headbutt, use Leech Seed, and finish by blasting the Eevee away with Razor Leaf.

Double Team ~ Leech Seed ~ Razor Leaf

And Gabi, it's coming. No worries.

Battle

The two battlers, one a veteran battler and the other new, throw pokeballs out in unison. From the veteran, a blue pokemon with a lily pad atop its head springs out. From the other, an eager young Eevee.

Immediately, the Eevee summons a ball of dark energy and sends it toward the Lotad. It hits him square in the face! In reply, Jimmy T. conjures three clones of himself.

Chip, after a quick round of eeny-meeny-miney-mo, headbutts the second Lotad from the right. But, alas, it is one of the clones! Jimmy T. sends an energy-stealing seed toward the Eevee. It hits, and tentacles emerge from the seed, latching onto Chip's fur.

Chip now opens his jaws and bites the nearest Jimmy T. Luckily, he bites the right one! The two remaining clones fade, and Jimmy T. ends with a Razor Leaf, several leaves hitting Chip. A small amount of energy is sapped from Chip and transferred to Jimmy T. from the Leech Seed.

~ Jeff and Jimmy T. attack first next round.

[Lady Vulpix]

First again? Ok. Chip, use Toxic. It shouldn't be hard now that you're so close. Then concentrate and use Bide.

Since Bide lasts for more than 1 turn (is it 2 or 3?), I assume I'm not supposed to issue another attack, right?

[The Blue Avenger]

Okay, Kevv: a few things. Gabi attacked first last round, hence I would attack first this round. Also, Jimmy T. is not Giles, not is he an Alakazam. Also, I am not Buffy.

If Gabi wishes, I will attack first this round and she can redo her attacks afterward, or she can leave those up and I can attack second again. i leave it up to you, Gabi.

[Lady Vulpix]

I'm sure the Buffy & Giles thing was a copy/paste error.
I've already issued my attacks and it's hard for me to go through the attacks list to pick new ones (I'm used to the way they work in AC/CC), so would it be alright if I left the attacks like this and then you attacked first for the next 2 turns to compensate?

[The Blue Avenger]

Not to say that I didn't know where the error was coming from, just something I'd like corrected in future reffings. *shrug*

And that sounds okay to me.

Okay, Jimmy T., put up a Protect against Toxic. Next, as Chip Bides, attack with a Toxic of your own. Finish by throwing some more Leech Seeds around.

Protect ~ Toxic ~ Leech Seed

[Everoy]

Er, sorry o.o; That was my first real reffing since the PBuG days.

[The Blue Avenger]

It's okay, no worries. Just something to keep an eye on in the future.

[Everoy]

Since Bide lasts for more than 1 turn (is it 2 or 3?), I assume I'm not supposed to issue another attack, right?

I'm guessing two since that's how it is in the games, so that's how I'll ref it.

[Lady Vulpix]

Alright, then. No more instructions for this round.

[Everoy]

I'll ref this tomorrow; I've been very busy.

EDIT: Well, I can't today. I'll try as hard as I can to get it done sometime in the next two days.

Battle

Chip summons up a blob of toxic... Well, you don't want to know, but it's toxic. At the same time, Jimmy T. conjures a shield of whitish-clear energy around himself. Chip sends the blob of toxic crap (as in stuff, not... y'know) at Jimmy T., but it stops midair and slides off. Meanwhile, the Leech Seed saps a bit of Chip's energy.

Next, Chip starts concentrating as a red aura shifted into the visible light spectrum around him. Jimmy T. summons a blob of the same toxic-y stuff as Chip and hurls it at him, hitting square on. Leech Seed sapped yet another small bit of energy.

Chip continues concentrating as hard as he can, ready to attack at any moment. Jimmy T. sends another Leech Seed at Chip, hitting at the same time as the older seed saps its last bit of energy and falls off. Meanwhile, Toxic saps a bit of energy.

thp = hp - 2(x-r)
with thp being total hp, hp being hp, x being current round, and r being round used. Yay for teh maths!

[The Blue Avenger]

Okay, Jimmy T., wait until Chip releases Bide, then hit him with Razor Leaf. Continue with an Ice Beam and finish with Water Pulse. However, if a Toxic comes your way, Protect.

[Lady Vulpix]

May I request some extra time, please? Multiple events have stopped me from getting enough time in front of my computer lately.

[The Blue Avenger]

Go right ahead. If you need to do it in the future, the ASB Absence Tower, in the Tower subforum, is a good place to let everyone know at once.

[Lady Vulpix]

Sorry for the delay.

Ok, Chip, release the Bide, then use Facade on Jimmy T twice.

[Elec Man EXE]

I'll be taking on the reffing for the remainder of this battle, yup. Don't know that I'll get it done today, may have to wait until Monday, but rest assured it shall be done.

[The Blue Avenger]

Thanks, man. It's appreciated.

Battle
The battle is just getting underway, and both trainers remain confident. They give their orders to each of their small pokemon, who nod energetically before turning to one another.

Having hunkered down in the previous round, Chip struggles against the entangling of vines and lets out a cry as he raises his head. He expects to release a blast of power, but having sustained no signifigant damage, nothing at all happens. He twitches his ears and looks a bit suprised, and as he puzzles Jimmy takes advantage of the situation. The little grass type swings his head around, sending out a scattering of sharpened leaves from just under his lily pad hat. Eevee cries out as the sharp plant projectiles slash across his body, leaving many tiny cuts all over him. A few of the wounds are deep enough to draw a bit of blood, leaving the normal type with small bits of darkened fur. The young water weed yawns, not exactly enthralled with the one sided battle.

Annoyed by his failure and Lotad's show of boredom, Chip is determined to do something to fight back against the opponent. As best he can with seeds restricting him, he starts to charge at the water type. While he runs, his body feeds off the toxins, using the affliction to create a field of energy around him and giving him a white glow. Lowering his head, Eevee rams into the nonchalant aquatic pokemon and sends him hurtling back. Jimmy grunts as he is thrown back, then tumbles head over... uh, heels a couple of times before coming to rest leaf-down. He has a bit of a hard time righting himself with his stubby feet, but eventually manages despite Chip's giggling. With that, he takes a deep breath and opens his mouth wide, as he starts to build up a frigid energy between his lips. The ice takes the form of a sphere, before Jimmy lets out a howl and blasts a jagged beam of frost toward the seeded canine. Hitting dead on, Eevee whines under the biting chill of the cyan beam. The stream of ice soon exausts itself and disappears, showing a cold Chip with bits of ice in his fur, glimmering in the sunlight. But the vines around his body also got hit by the attack, and many of them are also frosted over. The main seed lies in-tact on the puppy's back, but the draining effect is lessened due to the damage.

He's a bit cold, but Chip takes comfort in the fact that some of the invading plants are damaged as well. The normal type stretches his legs, letting the fragile chilled tendrils around them crack and fall to the ground, then glances back at Jimmy. Eevee starts to dash toward him again, and lets his intoxication fuel the attack a second time. The glow is fainter than before, but he still looks threatening charging toward Lotad. The grass pokemon starts to build up a ball of water in his closed jaws, hoping to counter the attack, but Chip is too close. He smashes into the water weed, knocking him back, though this time he manages to keep his footing and just slides backward a ways. Wasting no time, Jimmy ignores the pain and opens his mouth, gathering a bit more water there before letting the aquatic sphere fly at his opponent. The attack splatters as it hits Chip forcefully right in the face, causing him to stagger back. Sonic waves within the water cause the Eevee's mind to scramble for a moment, but the effect clears in moments. Now soaked, the evolution pokemon instinctively shakes, sending beads of water in every direction.

Mind now fully in the battle, Jimmy looks toward his trainer, awaiting his attacks. Chip winces as he feels the poison continuing its path through his blood stream, burning his insides, while the planted seed draws a bit of his life force through its vines.

Arena Status: Still calm, though a bit damp around Chip

I should mention I handle Facade in a bit of a unique way. Rather than simply being powerful as long as you have a status effect, the power gets a boost the first time its used, and then goes down as its used further. First use is 12 damage, second use 10, third 8, and after that its base power (7). Makes more sense to me, rather than being a constant power boost. It'd go back up if you were to get another status effect, of course.

[The Blue Avenger]

Okay, Jimmy T., use a Razor Leaf flurry and finish with a powerful Hydro Pump to force Chip away. If he uses Toxic, however, use Protect.

Razor Leaf x2 ~ Hydro Pump

[Lady Vulpix]

Ok, I'm afraid we don't have many options, so try Bide again: absorb 2 attacks and then release it on Jimmy T.

Battle
Now that the battle is getting a bit more exciting, Jimmy looks toward his trainer with eagerness. Chip is more occupied with the poison, but he also listens for his trainer's commands. The pair of battlers ponder for a moment, and then give their orders for the 4th round of battle as the pokemon nod.

Chip makes a decision to forgo avoidance for the moment, and he crouches down and closes his eyes. Around his body, a very faint white aura, almost gasseous in appearence, forms. In that position, the little Eevee waits for his foe to attack. Jimmy's seen this before, but it didn't even do anything last time, so he thinks nothing of it. The little water type crys out as he swings his leafy hat, sending a series of sharp spinning leaves at the waiting Eevee. The spinning, blade-like plants cut across Chip's body, causing him to shudder in pain. He remains silent, however, even as a few more cuts form across him. As the damage is done, the energy surrounding the evolution pokemon brightens and takes on a greenish hue. Jimmy looks on with curiosity, seeing his opponent starting to glow brighter.

Raising his eye's questioningly, Lotad tries to figure out what the little canine is up to. But after a few moments, it becomes clear that the Eevee still has no intentions of doing anything. Grunting, Jimmy once again whips his head around, letting another barrage of cutting leaves fly. Swirling through the air, the green projectiles slash across Chip's fur and skin, leaving red gashes in their wake. He can't help but wimper a little, but remains determined. As before, the glowing particles surrounding him start intensify, evidence of the energy he's managed to replicate from the damage.

Having gathered damage from 2 attacks, Chip suddenly opens his eyes, bearing a fiercesome look. All at once, the energy flowing across his body gathers between his open jaws, forming a throbbing ball of grass power. Letting out a loud scream, the little Eevee blasts out a beam of pure energy which quickly cuts through the air toward Jimmy. He cringes as the strong blast overtakes him, flowing all around his small body. The energy exausts itself shortly, dwindling in size before disappearing completely. Chip gasps, the stress from the maneuver leaving him out of breath. Opposite him, Jimmy shudders and does his best to ignore the pain. Taking a deep breath, the water weed prepares for a powerful aquatic blast. After building the water energy inside his body, he sprays out a large and powerful jet of liquid at the gasping normal type. The quick, forceful spray leaves Eevee little time to react, and he yelps as the blast of cool water slams into his chest. He tumbles back under the pressure of the stream, but as the force lessens the puppy comes to a skidding halt. Getting back to his feet, he groans, dripping. Having thoroughly soaked his opponent, Jimmy grins.

With the round drawing to a close, the waterlogged Eevee groans as the strong toxins keep working their way through his vitals. While he winces, the seed on his back withdraws its vines and then "jumps" off him, and back to Jimmy. Lotad sighs happily, feeling slighty rejuvinated as the seed surrenders its stolen energy to him. Through the pain, Chip looks rather annoyed and growls at the weed.

Battle
With Round 5 coming up, each trainer thinks carefully about what to have their faithful pokemon do. After a bit of consideration, they shout their commands, and both the pained Chip and his opponent Jimmy nod back.

Knowing the situation isn't favorable, Chip shakes off the pain and starts to run at little Lotad, still dripping from the water type's last attack. As the evolutionary pokemon nears, Jimmy perks up and opens his mouth. A staggering number of small brown seeds fire from his lips, flying forward and pelting the approaching Eevee. He is forced to stop his charge as the seeds batter him. Grunting in pain, the normal type withdraws his head and shuts his eyes tight. The stream of plant projectiles lets up soon, and Chip shakes his head briefly and then sprints forward over a few seeds. Jimmy wiggles back, trying to avoid his opponent, but with little success. Eevee bears his teeth, bits of darkness flowing between them, and then chomps onto the water weed's lily pad. The Lotad shrieks, shaking his head to try and get the canine to release him while the darkness burns into him. Damage done, Chip lets go, but stays close to his opponent in preparation for his next manuever.

Feeling desperation building, the little Eevee moves right into the next move. Before Lotad has any time to respond, Chip lets out a squeal and starts to flail at the water type like a gerbil in a swarm of bees. Jimmy cringes while he gets rapidly battered by Eevee's limbs, pummeling his face. When the normal type finally calms down, breathing heavily, Jimmy lets out a groan. Face bruised, he subdues the pain and opens his jaws. Before them, a ball of water energy takes shape, growing in diameter. Halo's of sonic energy pulse inside the orb, and he blows the aquatic bullet at a gasping Eevee. The watery mass bursts as it collides forcefully with him, sending beads of water everywhere. Chip is knocked back, staggering. He loses his footing as disorientation takes hold, slipping in the puddled water around him and falling hard on his stomach. The shock snaps him back to his senses, but he remains on the ground wimpering.

Viewing the puppy whining on the ground, Jimmy feels sorry for him. That is, until he pushes himself slowly to his feet, then lunges foward. Lotad gets caught in the barrage of wild attacks again, the fierocity having increased. Chip's cries carry across the void of the arena, mixing with Jimmy's own cries of agony. Lotad's body starts to numb from the pain, but suddenly Chip becomes still. He slumps down to the ground, head falling to his side, motionless. Grunting, Jimmy opens his eyes, still bearing a pained expression, and glances down at his fallen opponent. Realizing that he's defeated the determined Eevee, he looks toward his trainer and smiles widely.

Her pokemon down, but having fought till the very end, Lady Vulpix pulls out a pokeball and lets the red beam pull Chip back to the safe haven within. She softly says "Good job" and then puts the ball away, thinking about which pokemon to use next. Meanwhile Jimmy is taken with satisfaction, oblivious to the damage inflicted upon him, and his trainer nods to him and awaits the next challenge.

Battle
After considering her choices for a moment, Lady Vulpix unclips a second pokeball, enlarging it as she pulls her arm back. She tosses the pokeball, which emits a bright flash and gradually takes the shape of a serpent. The light fades to reveal a slender Dratini, who opens her eyes and grins. Her trainer smiles back, and then gives the dragon her orders, as Hypotenuse Man does the same for Jimmy.

As the round begins, Jimmy breathes deeply and starts to build up a mass if ice and snow between his jaws. Mist watches, and shivering just thinking about the dangerous frosty attack, focuses her mind carefully. She moves her tail forward, using it as a focus for her energy. The power flows, taking the shape of a sphere around her. Shimmering, the barrier becomes solid, though it retains its transparent nature. Lotad, still drawing frigid energy for a powerful ice attack, doesn't think anything of the shield. When the stout water type reaches his energy limit, he lets out a howl as the powerful cone of ice blasts toward Mist. The attack freezes the very air, and as it speeds forward also turns the damp ground into a sheet of ice. Slamming into the protective shield, the furious rush of winter pummels the barrier, instantly starting to coat it with a layer of snow as it flickers upon impact. But Dratini holds strong, stress building from the pressure of maintaining the shield. When the combined force of frozen bits of ice and the horrendous wind finally subside, she sighs in relief and releases the energy, leaving the shield to shatter while the built up ice falls to the ground. The serpentine dragon is surrounded by chunks of ice and the moisture around her is frozen to a layer of ice, but she remains unharmed.

Lotad lets out a rather annoyed grunt, yielding a smile from his opponent. But Mist knows that she needs to raise another defense before an encore of the chilly attack heads her way. Her eyes glow as she uses psychic energy to form a yellow screen before her body. The screen is made up of an assortment of hexagonal plates, all fitting together perfectly. While she creates her protection, Jimmy is determined to hit her with another frozen blast. His mouth opens as before, but this time he builds up a concentrated ball of ice energy. A frigid fog spreads from the shining orb as it grows between the water weed's lips. It disperses, though, as a jagged beam of sky blue blasts from the orb at Dratini. Quickly, the ray speeds over the ground and reaches Mist's shield. Though the shield isn't solid, it absorbs much of the incoming frosty energy, leaving only small amount to pass on to hit her. Even so, she scrunches back and lets out a whine, dragonic body especially susceptible to the low temperature. The screen continues to shine as the stream of ice energy cuts out, and then gradually the screen fades. It doesn't disappear completely, however, and Mist smiles knowing she'll be partially protected for a while.

Even with her defenses keeping her mostly unharmed, Mist is quite ready to go on the offensive. She stretches herself out, lifting herself into the air while her pupils shine white. The shine persists for a moment, and then she fires a flowing ray of energy downward. It hits the frozen ground in front of Jimmy, and he laughs at her apparent missed attack. The grass type takes a breath, but then is suprised when a glowing piece of the sheet ice takes flight with a crackling sound. The projectile, glowing the same hue as Dratini's eyes, hurtles at Jimmy and cracks him in the face. He gets knocked back, letting out a startled yelp, and then shakes his head in disbelief. The dragon's eyes return to normal and she giggles, but this only serves to annoy Jimmy. Doing his best to ignore the increasing stress on his body, he growls and blows out a chilly wind, using the energy within his body. The frigid wind swirls across the arena, quickly blowing over Mist. She shivers as the air blast whips around her body, chilling every part of her. It dies down as Lotad runs out of breath, and even with the lingering protection of the screen her body is almost numb.

With his body weakened further, Jimmy shuts his eyelids and tries to go to his happy place while he waits for the next round. Mist is quite chilled, but she's energetic and ready to defeat her opponent. The pair of trainers think for a while as they prepare for the coming round.

BTW, I'm trying out my new reffing method for Reflect/Light Screen, a sort of combination between the games and the Attack List. Basically, it greatly reduces the incoming special attack when its first used (70% reduction), and then reduces special attacks by 20% from that point on. And it lasts 2 rounds after first use. Does that sound good?

[Lady Vulpix]

I guess it can work. Mist, use a Flamethrower. It should warm up the place a little and do some damage in the process. Then use Dragonbreath and, finally, Thunderbolt.

Counter Flamethrower with Hydro Pump. Next, Blizzard, and finish with Toxic.

Battle
Round 7 has begun, and the trainers take a moment to think before issuing orders to their respective pokemon. Mist nods carefully, still shivering, while Jimmy weakly grunts in reply.

Definately approving of her trainers order to warm herself, Mist takes a deep breath. Through her slender body, she builds up a fiery energy, warming herself from the inside out as flames flicker between her jaws. With a cry, she blows out a stream of searing flames toward Jimmy, who looks to be preparing for his own attack. The red streak of fire speeds on, and overtakes the little water weed before he can put his plan into action. He grunts as the flames lick at his damp skin, then opens his lips and blasts a powerful stream of water. The aquatic flow extinguishes the flames in the immediate vicinity, and then starts to push through the fire back toward Dratini. Steam rises upward as the two elements collide. Mist keeps the heat on, but is quickly losing ground, her attack disadvantaged. As the strong hydronic flow nears, the flames dwindle, the little dragon feeling her built-up heat diminishing. Mist shuts her eyes just as the flames stop completely, and the rush of water splashes in her face, though the shimmering screen before her takes some of the energy. She rears back under the pressure, but holds her ground as the rush drenches her body. The water pressure keeps up for a brief while, then wanes until its a mere squirt. Mist shakes her head, flinging droplets to the ground, while Lotad groans and takes a moment to catch his breath.

Glancing back toward her opponent, Mist can sense that he's weakening. Intent on finishing quickly, she takes another breath, mouth glowing an emerald green before she blows out a concentrated burst of fire. This time, the flames are of pure dragon energy, giving them an ethereal glow. The ice below shimmers, reflecting the green light as the attack heads toward the injured Lotad. He cringes as the mythical energy hits him, flowing across his body. A numbing sensation mixes with the pain of the onrushing energy, and as the flow starts to lessen Jimmy feels his mind start to spin. His legs wobble, his entire body shakes, and then he collapses to the ground. Trying to push himself to his feet one last time, the little grass type whines and his eyes close, unconciousness setting in. Dratini exausts the flames and closes her mouth, then looks toward her trainer with a satisfied grin on her face.

Having fought a great battle, Hypotenuse Man pulls out Jimmy's pokeball and points it toward the fallen pokemon. An irridescent beam of red emits from the center, touching Jimmy and subsequently pulling him back into the device. The trainer clips the ball back to his belt, then reaches for a new one, while Lady Vulpix gives Mist a reassuring glance.

599, dart in quickly with a Fake Out. Continue with Hypnosis, and finish by using Dream Eater if Dratini's asleep, or Icy Wind if not.

However, in case of Toxic or Thunder Wave, use Faint Attack for evasion purposes.
