It's nice when Pokecheck finally works for a bit.

Round 6

Arena
A rocky area filled with tall spires of rock that don't seem too stable. Rock types get a boost, whereas Fighting, Ground, Steel, Water and Grass don't do as well. Oh well.

We begin this round with *decides in head* Flower sending a barrage of rocks down onto Rocksteady. Hah, ironic name... I think. Regardless, Rocksteady makes the earth around Flower vibrate, causing her to lose speed, finally ending this speed tie debacle.
: -3% health, -6% energy
[Txc, Rooted, Spd -1]
: -12% health, -5% energy
[Rooted]

Now faster, Rocksteady prepares to make his move... literally. Making himself as striking as possible, he gives Flower a big smug smile and does a few poses. Since women are suckers for that nonsense, Flower can only watch endearingly. No, actually, she decides to do something back. She comes across the idea of covering her lover in gifts... or rocks. Since he's part rock, surely they mean the same thing?
: -0% health, -6% energy
[Txc, Rooted, Spd -1, Atr]

Whilst Flower swoons over Rocksteady, he sends some sharp stones her way. Nah, just kidding, they miss. Flower just sees it as him cleaning up the area. What a responsible citizen!
: -0% health, -0% energy

Flower and Rocksteady absorb stuff through their roots, but Flower loses more due to poison.

-=- Round 7 -=-

Now that our dear old Ross E. More has hung up the reffing mantle, he has laid the burden of reffing this bout of heavyweights to a noob like me. Will I be able to accept such a huge responsibility? Can I possibly get any more sexier? Will Oslo ever be able to be cured of his deadly case of mistakenitis?! All that and much more coming up in Round 7!

Both Pokemon are set for their first attacks, Rocksteady starting things off since Flower seems a little helter skelter from her infatuation with the tentacles monster and ambles forward shakily to try and plant a wet one. Rocksteady responds to her puckered lips with some sharp stones. What a lovely gift for such an ugly mug.

: -17% health, -0% energy
*ATR*
: -0% health, -8% energy

Flower seems to want to say something about the last attack, but those deep, soulless yellow eyes of Rocksteady's just seems to captivate her so that she refuses to do anything else but continue to lovingly gaze into them. Rocksteady rewards her diligence by roaring out loud as a small tremor is sent forth, causing Flower to feel a bit unbalanced

: -3% health, -0% energy
*ATR* [-1 Spd]
: -0% health, -4% energy

Rocksteady seems not to care much at all about Flower's goofy love-struck mood as he continues to bombard her with more sharp rocks. That seems to be the straw that broke the freaky underwater plant's back as she glares daggers at Rocksteady, indicating that her fairly brief (even shorter than Kim Kardashian's marriage, who knew?) romance is all but shattered as she stabs Rocksteady back with his own set of stones as well, which also manages to land herself a critical hit on Rocksteady as well! Love hurts, doesn't it Rocky?

: -14% health, -8% energy
: -24% health, -6% energy
*CRIT*

Flower's poison and nutri-grow both proc up at the same time, but lucky for her, the damage cap already kicked in at the last move, preventing any sappage of health. On the other hand, Rocky is just chillin and livin the good life as he regains more health from his roots.

–U mad bro Oslo?
-PKMN Trainer Oslo to attack first next round!


EDIT: So I adjusted everything accordingly, Rocksteady lost a little more health than I expected and gained a WHOPPING +1 EN, whereas Flower hit the damage cap and her HP/EN are both the same as before. You may now commence with attacks Oslonidus

[Oslo]

Will Oslo ever be able to be cured of his deadly case of mistakenitis?!

WILL PERFECT CHAOS EVER BE ABLE TO BE CURED OF HIS DEADLY CASE OF MY FOOT IN HIS ASS? >O FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON ANOTHER SCINTILLATING EPISODE OF "PERFECT CHAOS: THE BOY WHO COULDN'T STFU."

(Spoiler:) I'd watch that show. :3

[DarkestLight]

Looks like Mistakenitis is spreading. PC, I said Bulldoze for action 2. Looking for the Decrease in speed, G >.>

[Oslo]

I'll issue my commands once Perfect Chaos has made the correction, since I'm pretty sure this will also affect my HP/your EP.

[Perfect Chaos]

Yeahhh, so much for reffing at 3 am when you're half-asleep. I'll try and get it fixed soon.

[Perfect Chaos]

Double-posting like a boss!

Fixed the above reffing, I think everything's fine now, so feel free to claw my eyes out if you spot anything that's still not right

[Oslo]

Derp, not the best time to be commanding first. I doubt we can KO here, Flower, but hopefully we can whittle a bit!

Recover, Stone Edge x2.

Protect against damage-dealing combos. If Stone Edge has been Amnesia'd, swap it for Rock Slide.

[DarkestLight]

:/ ...I have a plan. I'll post attacks becasue I want to see how this plays out more than the math in the previous round.

Relax.
Pain Split.
Protect.


Now: I need Chaos to explain something.

Maybe it was due to the nature of how the attacks struck, but....why did I lose more health? If his attacks still hit or not hit at the same ratio...shouldn't I still be at the same health? I dun mind the set up, just pondering this for future outings so I can correctly identify mistakenitis

[Perfect Chaos]

Well despite how he didn't manage to attack for two actions Darkly, the RNG managed to score a crit on his last attack, hence the increased damage (including the addition of the +4 from the Arena's effect).

Flower had a good 25-HP lead on you from the previous round. With the damage Rocky inflicted this round along with the poison, you managed to pull out a head a bit, but that last attack's crit managed to put you two on equal grounding again.

[DarkestLight]

Arena effect. That's what I was missing. Thank you.

-=- Round 8 -=-

The next round starts off pretty slowly as both Pokemon decide to start chillin like villains, Flower recovering some of her lost health while seemingly looking a bit fatigued at the same time. R0xxx0rz, on the other hand, seems a bit fresh after relaxing and recovering some much needed energy.

: +20% health, -15% energy
: -0% health, +10% energy

Rox-My-Sox wants a little bit of that tasty health bonus that Petunia managed to give herself and shoots out a pink tentacle that fondles grabs her and equalizes the states between the two of them. Petunia's not at all happy with the sudden change and summons up some more gray rocks that are then fired at Rox and do some more decent damage.

: -47% health, +35% health, -7% energy
: -24% health, +36% health, -17% health, -15% energy

Flower looks to keep taking on the advantage by shooting out some more rock projectiles, but Roxxx manages to throw up a protective shield at the very last moment, though he burns through some health as a result of fatigue finally setting in.

: -0% health, -7% energy
: -0% health, -8% energy (-4% health Fatigue)

Flower's poison and nutri-grow both proc up at the same time, the poison doing much more damage than the roots can heal up for her. On the other hand, Rocky is just chillin and livin the good life as he regains more health from his roots.

: -24% health, -0% energy

End of Round 8 Notes
–The percentages do look a bit kooky this round, because honestly, its the first time I've ever reffed Pain Split and Toxic in a battle, so if anything looks a bit off/too much (like the Toxic damage at the end), just point it out and I'll try to fix it accordingly.

[Oslo]

Haha, yeaaah, if I had a nickel for the number of times my brain has asploded from trying to calculate Pain Split then I would have all the nickels. (X + Y) / 2 shouldn't be so hard, but it is for Oslo. D: It all looks good, but I believe Rocksteady should have lost health due to fatigue during the second action. (At least I think so... 'cause he had 11 EP and was using a 15 EP move. Unless that's built into the numbers somewhere and my crappy math skills are preventing me from seeing it, which is quite possible.)

Also, 'tis Darkly to go first.

I know what you mean dude, but I usually give a bit leeway in that if you still had a bit of energy left and do an attack that doesn't need that much extra energy for it to go through, I'll let the fatigue=damage rule kinda slide in that case.

Honestly, I was a bit worried about the whole Toxic damage, since its getting to stupidly high levels now

[Oslo]

Yeah, it's not my favourite way of reffing Toxic since it's kind of game-breaking, but you're just following through with what Rossy set up so c'est la vie.

[DarkestLight]

Rock Slide (Widespread) ~ Stone Edge ~ Mud Slap

-=- Round 9 -=-

Things are getting dicey between these rock monsters. Rocksteady decides to go for a full-out barrage of stones by summoning them from the plateaus surrounding our combatants. But Flower is looking prepared, knowing that her time is almost up. She concentrates all her power and energy as white energy form around her, as well as a silver glowing ball forms around the top of her head. Soon, both energies end up forming into gray, glowing rocks and with a flick of her tentacled head, while quickly throwing up a light blue protective barrier at the last moment of Rocky's rock barrage hitting her. Flower's mega-assault goes flying toward Rocky and slams into him head on as he takes the full brunt of the attack, being suctioned into place after all. He slumps over from overwhelming pain in seeming defeat as Flower looks on exhausted in triumph...

: -0% health, -13% energy
: -29% health, -5% energy (-2% health Fatigue)

...but wait there's more! The poison finally takes its full potent effect on Flower as she also slumps over from fatigue and major internal damage. Looks like we have a double KO here!

So uh, I'm not exactly sure on the whole who releases first, who releases next and who has to attack first next round, so if it is wrong, feel free to stomp on my neck and call me out on it

[DarkestLight]

O.o! Sweet! Just like old times.

Now, who to choose..:: Skim skim skim::

And you got it right, PC

[DarkestLight]

Hrm. Unless your seeker is out of date, which it might be..I only see 3 Rockers left on your team...or I'm blind. Nonetheless, I wanna use my baby, since its been AGES since I even got her to this point.

Zent, F Tyranitar w SandStream. Let's do dis!

[Oslo]

Yeah, my Seeker is accurate with the exception of the Yanmega Grey gave me at the last tree. Still gotta add that. HRM. I think I'm going to go with Sudafed, my male Nosepass with Sand Force.

Let's try Power Gem, Earth Power, Power Gem. Magic Coat that which is Magic Coatable.

[DarkestLight]

And suddenly I smell shenanigans. Rain Dance for a lil, then hone claws. End with Aqua Tail. Let's do dis!

[DarkestLight]

[DarkestLight]

Wups.

Will have it up in a bit

[DarkestLight]

Bit, huh

Will have it up in a bit, he says.

I AM FULL OF LIES :U LOLOLOL, he says.

[Oslo]

PC has gotten more bumps than a bullfrog's warty-ass behind. :|

[Perfect Chaos]

Sorry guys, been really busy for the past few weeks with work, studying and Christmas coming up. To be quite honest, dunno when I'll be able to get to reffing this and my other battles but will do my best to get it in ASAP.

[Oslo]

Whatcha wanna do, Darkles?

OPTION THE FIRST: Call it quits because we're both tied and that's a lovely way to leave it. Increases tension for the inevitable Gym match we'll have someday.
OPTION THE SECOND: Get a subref because we have not been slogging along for nearly six months just to give in at the finish line.
OPTION THE THIRD: Wait until Perfect Chaos comes back at the end of February and force the big butt to finish what he started. (Well, technically Rossy started, but you get my gist.)

OSLO ENDORSES ALL THREE IDEAS EQUALLY! :U

[RaZoR LeAf]

I'll sub for you if you need it. Since you finished on a double ko, it wont be difficult o get he last few rounds in

[DarkestLight]

I'll go for #1. If only to free us all from having a match for a moment. And so I can get some time to figure stuff out.

[Oslo]

Works for Oslo! So it's... three for you, three for me, four for Rossy? I think that's how ties and subreffing work?

Thanks anyway for the offer, RL.
