‡ Pre-Round ‡


‡ Round 2 ‡

As we enter the next round, things seem to be fairly even for the most part. Can things stay like this? Aikoku seems to want them to and powers up a burst of energy. Ooh, this is always fun! What type will it take? The invisible Hidden Power roulette wheel starts spinning and lands on… ooh, look at that! A crystal-blue ball of energy tumbles through the air and strikes Gigabyte with minimal effect. Aww, nuts. Gleeful, Gigabyte does a little spin in the air and a peal of thunder echoes through the atmosphere. Egads! Little bullets of rain scour the field.

Gigabyte giggles. The tin can has a plan.

Gigabyte: <-4 HP; -4 EP>
Aikoku: <-5 EP>

While rain pelts the craggy escarpment, Aikoku watches as Gigabyte charges up for an electrical assault. Not gonna happen! Guided by his Tailwind, Aikoku truly believes he can dodge this next strike as he flies in circles around the Magnemite. Unaware that the rain will make evasion impossible, Aikoku scrunches up his face into a big, nasty glare. Relatively unworried, Gigabyte launches the Thunder attack. It fries the Rufflet alive.

Gigabyte: <-10 EP; -2 Spd>
Aikoku: <-20 HP; -4 EP>

Aikoku teeters midair in a daze. That… hurt. That hurt a lot. The birdie watches as Gigabyte charges up a second Thunder and decides that another Hidden Power strike is in order. The blue beam collides with Gigabyte’s steely enamel and does minimal damage once again. As rain continues to soak the field, Gigabyte fires off that second Thunder attack. Its effects are excruciating for Aikoku who plummets from the air to the rocky field below. Poor guy.

Gigabyte: <-4 HP; -10 EP>
Aikoku: <-20 HP; -5 EP>



‡ Post-Round ‡

Notes:

> Tailwind will remain in effect for five more actions
> Aikoku's Hidden Power type is Ice and will remain as such for the remainder of the battle (yeah, rotten luck )
> Since you had quite a few subs and some of them came in conflict with one another, Cynder, I went with the subs that made the most sense for Aikoku given the circumstances
> TEAM DCM to command next
