ROUND FOUR

Scytherunner takes a long sharp breath, drawing in the heat from the sun and getting ready to spew it back out. GusGus isn't happy with the weather as it is, and starts to shuffle on the ground again, whipping up a sandstorm to canopy the arena. Unfortunately for the little Ant Lion, the sun is too intense to block out completely, and the strength of the sun dissipates the incoming storm enough that it's only half as strong as it would normally be. Gusgus mumbles at the rotten development, before he is hit by an intense blast of heat.

Scytherunner HP(-0) PP(-5)
Gusgus HP(-13) PP(-6)
Sunshine has ended
Sandstorm at 50% ~ Damage Reduced

Scytherunner grimaces as he is scratched by the sandstorm again. He vanishes into the shadows and moves invisible to the naked eye. Gusgus can't see him, but he knows he's still on the ground. A seismic thump from the Trapinch, and an earthquake starts again. The houndour wobbles and tumbles as he covers the arena ground, but still manages to reappear beside his target, where he rams his small horns into the ground type and tosses him head over heels.

Scytherunner HP(-12) PP(-2) ~ HP(-1) from Sandstorm
Gusgus HP(-6) PP(-5)

GusGus snaps angrily and sends another thump through the ground, knocking Scytherunner off balance again. The houndour's legs go in different directions and his head hits the ground. Dirt, yummy. The fire type growls and tries to get as much solar eenergy as he can form the sky. It's not going to be as strong as it would have with the blazing sun, but he manages top pull off a pretty fine beam of light that smacks into Gusgus and sends the pokemon crashing into the arena wall. Scytherunner pants as the sand scratches him. He's weak and tired now.. but Gusgus isn't getting up. A close call, but it looks like Scytherunner takes this victory.

Scytherunner HP(-12) PP(-7) ~ HP(-1) from Sandstorm
Gusgus HP(-7) PP(-5) ~ KO'd
