ROUND THREE

This battle is swiftly becoming stagnant, as both pokemon continue to use the same attacks for each turn. Spiritomb unleashes a pulse of dark energy that splashes over Gastly, causing a little more damage thanks to the former's plotting. Gastly retaliates with a damning Hex, that bounces off Spiritomb's poisoned ectoplasm and causes twice as much damage as it normally would. Combined with the toxic virus inside, Spiritomb is weakening quickly.

Gastly HP(-12) PP(-2)
Spiritomb HP(-11) PP(-4) ~ HP(-2) PP(-2)

Another Dark Pulse and another Hex are released, both attacks having little effect other than the damage they would otherwise be doing. The ref goes to the bar to get a coke and some peanuts, whilst the battle slowly continues.

Gastly HP(-12) PP(-2)
Spiritomb HP(-11) PP(-4) ~ HP(-2) PP(-2)

As the pokemon attack each other, in the exact same way, again, Spiritomb is looking seriously worse for wear as the combination of powerful attacks and deadly poisoning takes it's toll on his otherwise impervious body. He shudders and shakes, fading in and out of this plane of reality as he desperately clings to conciouness. Gastly on the other hand is still surviving well. Above them, the lights turn on, and the two are bathed in a warm orange light.

Gastly HP(-12) PP(-2) ~ Taunt faded
Spiritomb HP(-11) PP(-4) ~ HP(-2) PP(-2)
