After crying for hours (no not really, I was at work) I'm back.

New Battle!


===Rules===

1. Banned moves: Rest, Substitute, Mimic, any pure status inflictors, and any pure healers.

2. So there is no intentional type-trumping, we PM our first pokemon to the ref.

3. This'll be a 4-on-4 battle, 1 Pokemon at a time.


4. DQ: 1 week

Arena:
Kilauea, Hawaii

The battle will take place in a massive stone crater that is relatively shallow, but with a narrow stream carved into one end. At the center of the crater is a pool of lava at least 50 feet wide; it empties into the stream, which is only about 10 feet wide at its widest. The lava flows down the stream, out of the crater and in between the rocks on the Hawaiian shoreline until it hits the ocean. One ether side of the rocks is sand, with some tropical plants a bit further down the beach, away from the insufferable heat of the volcano.

Despite the heat of the lava, Ice and Water attacks aren't weakened, nor are Fire attacks strengthened. Any Fire Pokemon that falls in the lava will not be burnt to death, by Heatran's mercy, but they will suffer anywhere between 1HP and 10HP of damage for each action they spend in the lava (For example, a Charizard or a Magmortar may take 1HP, whereas a Snover or a Paras would take 10HP, etc..). It takes one action to get out of the lava.

Where the lava and the ocean meet, scalding steam constantly erupts; contact with it may induce a Burn.

Both battlers begin inside the crater, beside the lava lake, on opposite sides of the 'stream.' Like a stream of water, a few rocks poke up from the lava. They can be used to cross the stream.

===Round 5===

This round begins with a interesting turn of events. It seems I'm on crack, and can't remember rocks don't really get hurt that much by fire. Henceforth-Barrel Volcano is disqualified. The match now starts with Lily-a Ludicolo who's really too happy in a volcano..jumping around, uncaring to anything I just said...and makes it rain on...me...

complete with lightning bolts. Nice -.-. Over here, as Blade throws rocks at me in gleeful joy-a Metagross floats down. Sir Grodus clamps his mouth twice to voice his approach.


[L: -4E SG: Herro!]
*Rain Dance for five actions*


Now that the grounds are once again even, this battle can begin. Grodus stays aloft under its own electromagnetic powers and begins to attain a sheen of metal upon its surface, akin to what Silver did a while back. In contrast to that action, Lily shook her bomboms and flung a thicker than natural stream of water-that heated up as it flew though this heated area--and struck Grodus with a well-aimed Water Pulse.

Pushed back, Grodus shook off the water, landing as he did so. The crab was mad >O!


[L: -5E SG: -4E/-10H Def x 2]

Glad to see she got his attention, Lily skipped around a bit, idly making sure to mead away from the stream of fire. In fact, she kept skipping and dancing nearer to the exit-seawater would give her the advantage after all...

Sir Grodus followed, floating and shimmering after her, focusing all his energy into a powerful attack he knew would shut her down for at least the remainder of this round..

but Lily was able to ground herself. Her happy pineapply face dropped the facade, and her hands spun around each other as if she was practicing hitting a speed bag. A white hot energy built up, and the amount of Focus she was putting into this attack was huge. With an "Ole" -the Blast shot free from her grasp, as Grodus sped in for the Zen Headbutt! Grodus smashed into it head on-a cracking sound blasting backwards from the collision.

Sir Grodus unable to fully calculate the impact he received. Arms popped free from their airborne positioning and grasped the volcanic crater, to avoid smashing into the ground below. Lily clapped, and began skipping in the rain again.
