FINISHED! MLG vs. Shadowlynx [Ref: Thanks Grey!]

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

A friendly welcome battle, you up for it?

[Shadowlynx]

Absolutely, I'll throw in my squirtle, Bromeo.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Ok. Why don't we try something new then. You're already in a battle I see, but not in a double battle. So I propose a double-battle! You send one out already, so I'll send out two. That way you have as much as an advantage as myself.

DQ: 7 days
Banned moves: Rest, Toxic and Pain Split (you can add anything if you want)
Abilities on.
Number of pokemon: 2 (both out at the same time)
Arena: Cerulean City Gym!



WITH FLOATS!

I'll send out my male Spheal (Ice Body) and my female Seel (Hydration). Both are unnamed for now.

[Shadowlynx]

Whoaaaa! Super exciting! And the setup is fine by me.

So I guess I'll throw in my female Eevee, Cassandra.

Alright Bromeo, let's go with Iron Tail (Spheal), Dynamic Punch(Spheal) and Dive.

Cassandra, let's try Growl (Seel), Body Slam (Seel), and Mimic (Seel).

[Darth CookieMonster]

Hey ill ref this for you guys!

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Spheal, Yawn on Bromeo! Then Curse. Then Aqua Ring.

Seel, Fake Out on Cassandra! Then wait until it comes for a Body Slam and smack it aside with an Iron Tail! Finish with Stockpile.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

We still need a ref here

[Greyfox]

If Darth doesn't respond in a day or so, I'll take this on for the both of 'ya.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Darth is on abscence till fifth of january. The match could be over by then, and I'd like to continue.

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!
SHADOWLYNX v. MELOVEGHOSTS
oooo

ROUND 1
The two trainers, Lynx and Ghosts, step into the vacant water-themed gym. The situation is David and Goliath. Or rather, the girl equivalent to David, with the newcomer Lynx tackling the Elite 4's Ghosts head-on. She releases her two pokemon: a pint-sized squirtle named Bromeo, and a fox pokemon named Cassandra. Bromeo enters the pool while Cass remains on the cement. Ghost calls out his next: an unnamed pair of sealions: Spheal and Seel.

As Cassandra gets ready to make her first move ever, Seel bats at her swiftly [ -4HP Cassandra / -3PP Seel ], making her completely forget what she was doing in the first place [ FLINCH ]. Bromeo is next to act, swiftly swimming towards his adversary. He leaps out of the pool next to Spheal and wangs him in the head with his iron tail [ -10HP, -10% Def Spheal / -8PP Bromeo ]. Spheal, however, takes the hit in stride before yawning directly into Bro's face [ -2PP Spheal / +25% Tir Bromeo ], making him tired.

Cassandra begins act two by charging at Seel with her hole body. Seel, however, just lies in wait, with her tail now shimmering in steel. The eevee slams [ -8HP, +25% Par Seel / -7PP Cassandra ], getting lucky with paralysis, before being slapped by Seel's own iron tail [ -10HP Cassandra / -8PP Seel ]. Bromeo, struggling against the welcoming slumber, throws his fist forward, giving Spheal quite a whallop [ -15HP, +25% Con Spheal / -9PP Bromeo ]. Spheal, unsure of himself, slows his speed in order to normalize his defense and increase his own attack power [ -5PP, +10% Atk, +10% Def, -10% Spd Spheal ].

Seel begins the round this time, saving up energy for later use [ -3PP, +25% Stk ], while Cassandra mimics the technique for her own gain [ -6PP, +25% Stk ]. Bromeo dives into the pool [ -2PP Bromeo ], while Spheal concentrates, creating a regenerative ring around himself [ -5PP, +3% Reg Spheal ].

First round completed, and Bromeo feels himself getting more and more tired [ +25% Tir Bromeo ].

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Seel: Aqua Tail on Cassandra! Then Stockpile again, finish with Aqua Tail on Cassandra again.

Spheal: Curse again. Then Unleash a Blizzard! Finish with Body Slam on Cassandra.
Sub for Spheal: if Cassandra uses Double Team, hit her with a widespread Surf!

Also, doesn't Stockpile raise Def and Sp.Def 1 each?

[Darth CookieMonster]

Sorry bout this guys

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

No prob DCM, I hope you're not offended that I took another ref, but I read your post in the Absence Tower and I thought, might aswell get a new ref since you're gonna be away for a while.

[Darth CookieMonster]

None taken. I totally understand, i just hate the fact that i was putting myself back into reffing and then i got full out body checked by all this real life stuff, leaving me no time for reffing

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Yeah, that sucks, but RL is always priority. Don't sweat.

[Shadowlynx]

Sorry for the delay.

Bromeo, Body Slam, Body Slam, Iron Defense, sub for Sleep Talk if you fall asleep.

Cassandra, Bite and follow with Swift, both directed at Spheal. Use Shadow Ball against Seel unless Bromeo falls asleep, then use Heal Bell to awaken him.

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!
SHADOWLYNX v. MELOVEGHOSTS
oooo

ROUND 2
Cass immediately begins round two by chomping down hard on Spheal's blubbery skin [ -5HP Spheal / -4PP Cassandra ], while Bromeo suddenly succumbs to sleep [ +100% Slp Bromeo ]. Seel bashes Cass with her tail [ -8HP Cassandra / -6PP Seel ], as Spheal continues to sacrifice speed for technique [ -5PP, +10% Atk, +10% Def, -10% Spd, +1HP Spheal ].

Cassandra then fires off a round of stars aimed at the male sealion, dealing weak damage [ -6HP Spheal / -3PP Cassandra ], while Bromeo continues to snooze [ +10PP Bromeo ]. Seel starts storing up more energy [ -3PP, +25% Stk Seel ]. Spheal finishes the second act with a widespread blizzard attack that brushes against the entire arena, damaging both of Lynx's pokemon [ -6HP Cassandra, -4HP Bromeo / -7PP, +1HP Spheal ].

Spheal loses his train of thought thanks to confusion, but that fades away when Cassandra decides to awaken her ally with a soothing bell chime that can be heard for miles [ -7PP Cassandra / Statuses eliminated ]. Bromeo jolts out of bed, considering hitting the snooze button, before remembering that he's in a battle, and raises his defense with steel energy [ -5PP, +20% Def Bromeo ]. Seel darts off to bash Cass in the head once again [ -8HP Cassandra / -6PP Seel ]. Remembering what he was told to do, Spheal slams harshly into Cass [ -7HP Cassandra / -6PP, +1HP Spheal ].

[Shadowlynx]

Bromeo: Let's work on Spheal using Rock Tomb, Dynamic Punch and follow it with Mega Kick.

Cassandra: Let's get rid of this blizzard with Sunny Day, then give a Helping Hand to Bromeo before you Headbutt Seel.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Spheal: I'm curious how Rock Tomb will succeed, so just go with Body Slam on Bromeo! Then evade that Dynamicpunch with Double Team and finish with Yawn on Bromeo.

Seel: Encore that Sunny Day (since I'm not sure how this'll work indoors aswell), and then Brine on Cassandra, twice!

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!
SHADOWLYNX v. MELOVEGHOSTS
oooo

ROUND 3
Cassandra begins the third round by summoning sun outside to shine as brightly as it can [ -7PP Cassandra ], which would be wonderful... if we weren't inside. Seel takes notice and claps gleefully, making Cass feel encouraged to try again [ -4PP Seel / Cassandra Encored ]. Bromeo, meanwhile, tries to summon a parade of rocks to trap Spheal into, but relents when there are none to be found. As he sighs, Spheal bashes him with a powerful body slam [ -8HP Bromeo / -6PP, +1HP Spheal ].

Cass attempts to summon the sunlight once again [ -7PP Cassandra ] to no avail, while Spheal seperates his body into four, giving him extra evasion against Bromeo's fierce punch [ -6PP, +75% Eva, +1HP Spheal ]. The punch hits a clone, making it disappear instantly [ -8PP Bromeo / -9% Eva Spheal ]. Seel is the last to strike, hitting Cassandra with a wall of chillingly cold water [ -5HP Cassandra / -3PP Seel ].

Cassandra snaps out of her spell before headbutting Seel fiercely [ -5HP Seel / -4PP Cassandra ], while the dugong responds with another wall of ice [ -5HP Cassandra / -3PP Seel ]. Bromeo then suffers through Spheals second yawn, making him more and more tired [ -2PP, +1HP Spheal / +25% Tir Bromeo ]. The squirtle does a flying kick into one of Spheal's clones [ -5PP Bromeo / -16% Eva Spheal ], before succumbing to the tiredness [ +100% Slp Bromeo ].

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Good work team.

Their names are Albert Porteau and Mariel Guds.

Albert, go with Iceball x3 on Cassandra.

Mariel, use Horn Drill on the sleeping target! Then Body Slam twice, also on Bromeo. If Cassandra tries a double team, sub your move for a widespread Surf; except on the first action.

[Shadowlynx]

Alright, guys. Cassandra, use heal bell again to wake up Bromeo. Then use body slam on Albert and detect.

Bromeo, once you're awake let's go with counter and dynamic punch.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Reminder for Grey

[Greyfox]

Haven't forgotten; in fact, I was just talking with Lynx about this battle a few minutes ago. I'll get to all my battles in the morning, methinks.

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!

oooo

ROUND 4
Cass summons another healing chime that awakens Bromeo [ -7PP Cassandra / Statuses elmininated ] while Team Ghosts switch dance partners. Cassandra gets an ice ball to the stomache [ -4HP Cassandra / -3PP, +1HP Albert P. ] while Muriel attempts to drill into Bromeo. However, her attempts to do so go fruitless as he avoids her attack easily [ -6PP Muriel G. ].

Cassandra then rams into Albert, easily eradicating his clone [ -7HP, -50% Eva Albert P. / -5PP Cassandra ], while the ice ball he summoned earlier comes back and steamrolls over her for heavier damage [ -6HP Cassandra / -3PP, +1HP Albert P. ]. Muriel, meanwhile, slams harshly into Bromeo [ -6HP Bromeo / -6PP Muriel G. ], as the turtlemon latches onto her blubbery body before slamming it into the ground for great damage [ -10HP Muriel G. / -10PP Bromeo ].

The ice ball comes around a third time as Cass leaps out of the way, avoiding it entirely [ -8PP Cassandra / -3PP, +1HP Albert P. ], as Bromeo strikes with a powerful fist [ -13HP, +25% Con Muriel G. / -8PP Bromeo ]. Muriel loses her train of thought for a moment before responding with another body slam against Bromeo [ -6HP Bromeo / -6PP Muriel G. ].

[Shadowlynx]

Ok Cassandra, let's go with Body Slam, Bite and Shadow Ball to Muriel.

Bromeo, Dynamic Punch, Mega Kick and Bite to Albert.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Albert, wait until it comes rushing forwards then use Double Team. Follow up Brine on Cassandra and Body Slam on Bromeo.

Muriel, Brine x3 on Cassandra! If she fainted, use Signalbeam on Bromeo.

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!
SHADOWLYNX v. MELOVEGHOSTS
oooo

ROUND 5
Bromeo waddles forward, intent on bringing down Albert with his fist. As he does so, however, Albert clones himself [ -6PP, +75% Eva, +1HP Albert P. ], confusing the squirtle. He tries his best, however, and throws his first forward, eliminating a clone [ -8PP Bromeo / -9% Eva Albert P. ]. Cassandra, meanwhile, throws her body into Muriel gracefully [ -6HP Muriel G. / -5PP Cassandra ] before getting hit with a powerful torrent of water afterwhich [ -11HP Cassandra / -5PP Muriel G. ].

Bromeo, upset that he couldn't bring Albert to justice with his fist, tries again with his feet. He throws his body forward feet first, slamming into another clone [ -5PP Bromeo / -16% Eva Albert P. ], as the eevee sinks her teeth into Muriel [ -4HP Muriel / -3PP Cassandra ], only to be struck by a double-dose of the previous attack by both opponents [ -11HP + -11HP Cassandra / -5PP Muriel G. / -5PP, +1HP Albert P.].

Bromeo, upset with his feet and arms, goes in for a bite, managing to successfully strike the correct Albert [ -5HP, -50% Eva Albert P. / -3PP Bromeo ]! Cass fires off a shadow ball that strikes Muriel [ -6HP Muriel G. / -6PP Cassandra ], before being fainted by the seel's last brine [ -4HP Cassandra / -3PP Muriel G. ].

The ref blows the whistle, signaling for Shadowlynx to summon her next pokémon [ +1HP Albert P. ].

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

I don't think it was more than a two on two, Grey

EDIT: Anyway, I'll post my commands aswell.

Albert: Body Slam Bromeo! Then Secret Power twice!
Muriel: Stockpile once more. Then Signal Beam twice! Erase clones with a widespread Surf if needed.

If Bromeo dives, go after it with Headbutt!

[Shadowlynx]

Alright Bromeo, it's down to you. Let's try Yawn on Albert, then Water Spout on Muriel, followed with a Body Slam to Muriel as well.

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!
SHADOWLYNX v. MELOVEGHOSTS
ooox

ROUND 6
Suffering the loss of his ally, Bromeo yawns deeply, making Albert increasingly tired [ -3PP Bromeo / +25% Tir Albert P. ]. Muriel, meanwhile, starts counting the tiles in the gym with a look of absense in her eyes. Albert ends the first act by slamming into the tiny turtle, knocking him into the pool [ -8HP Bromeo / -4PP, +1HP Albert P. ].

The squirtle improvises with the water, summoning a massive blast of it to come crashing down upon Muriel in a revenge trip for finishing off Cassandra. Muriel is washed away easily [ -8HP Muriel G. / -5PP Bromeo ]. Albert leaps into the pool near Bromeo and, utilizing the waters around him, creates a concussive force that slams Bromeo into the poolside [ -7HP + -3HP Bromeo / -5PP, +1HP Albert P. ]. Muriel pulls herself back together and leaps into the pool as well, salting Bromeo's wound with a signal beam [ -7HP Bromeo / -5PP Muriel G. ].

Very displeased with the battle as of late, Bromeo kicks off the side of the pool and fiercely slams into Muriel [ -6HP Muriel G. / -4PP Bromeo ], while team Ghosts lather, rinse, and repeat [ -7HP + -7HP Bromeo / -5PP, +1HP Albert P. / -5PP Muriel G. ].

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Reminder for Shadowlynx.

[Shadowlynx]

Ok Bromeo, let's see if you can't take down one of them with you. Let's open with another water spout on Muriel, followed with Body Slam and a Dynamic Punch on her as well.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Albert, I want you to Encore that Wouter Spout. Then Body Slam him twice!

Muriel, face the splashing then Spit Up - take'm down town! Then Signal Beam twice!

Finish this my icy warriors!

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!
SHADOWLYNX v. MELOVEGHOSTS
ooox

ROUND 7
Before the round has even begun, Albert has fallen asleep [ +10PP, +1HP Albert P. ], while Bromeo leaps back into the pool and summons another tidal wave to come washing down upon Muriel [ -7HP Muriel G. / -5PP Bromeo ]. The spheal retalliates on Bromeo by regurgitating all the pent-up energy she had previously held up for heavy damage [ -10HP Bromeo / -5PP, -20% Def, -20% SpD Muriel G. ].

Albert continues to snooze [ +10PP, +1HP Albert P. ] as Bromeo, not eager to wake up her partner, body checks the sealion [ -8HP Muriel G. / -4PP Bromeo ]. Muriel hits him with another signal beam [ -7HP Bromeo / -5PP Muriel G. ] that splashes against his frame.

Bromeo leaps at Muriel this time, slamming his fist into her blubbery body for heavy damage [ -15HP, +25% Con Muriel G. / -9PP Bromeo ], while Muriel can do nothing but hit him with another signal beam [ -7HP Bromeo / -5PP Muriel G. ]. Albert... just sits there [ +10PP, +1HP Albert P. ].

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Oshi, totally forgot about sleep.

Sleeptalk as long as your still asleep. Then Body slam all the way.

Muriel I want you to use Aqua Jet + Aqua Tail! Then Brine.

[Shadowlynx]

You can do it, Bromeo! Body Slam Muriel, then if you can Flail and Body Slam Albert.

[Greyfox]

DOUBLE BATTLE!
SHADOWLYNX v. MELOVEGHOSTS
ooox

ROUND 8
Albert awakens from his nap just in time to watch Muriel speed through the pool and bash Bromeo twice with her tail [ -1HP + -4HP Bromeo / -7PP Muriel G. ], but before she can escape, Bromeo tackles her into the poolside, ending her time in the match [ -1HP Muriel G. / -4PP Bromeo ]. Bromeo then gets tackled into the same wall [ -8HP Bromeo / -4PP, +1HP Albert P. ] by Albert; he doesn't survive it.

Woo, helluva match.

Shadowlynx receives 2 points.
MLG and I 4.

[Shadowlynx]

Thanks for a great match, MLG! And thanks to Grey for reffing.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Actually, don't we get two and one point respectively?

Thanks for the battle Shadowlynx, I hope you feel 'welcome'
