Under-Used Open Challenge [Ref DL]

[RaZoR LeAf]

This should be a bit of fun. This battle is for anyone that has pokemon on their roster that they have NEVER used. Not for a single thing. Contests, Safari Zone, and most of all battles. Your best way to check is to search the ASB Forum with their nickname. The only results that should come up are the VS Seeker, the Approval Tower and potentially the Chat Threads where they may have been named or a few other random threads.

So, we decide on how many a side we use (I can go as high as six I think) and we privately send our choices to the ref. The ref randomises them, and tells us who we are using as and when we need to know (Don't put a list of them at the start).

Now we are forced to use the pokemon who are otherwise lying stagnant on our team, and we can decide afterwards if we keep them or give them away in the Northern Hemisphere Summer Tree (aka the Southern Hemisphere Winter Tree).

===Round 1===

And here's the start of a new battle. One that will be landmark since not a single Pokemon has battled here after their addition to our battlers respective teams.

O-ren starts off fast, Coiling around herself. Not sure if shy or defensive manuvear. Flouncy takes the initiative and shoots off a Thunderbolt to try and restraighten out the snake.

Fl: -8E ~~~ O: -3E/-10H +Atk/Def/Acc

O-Ren shifts out of the coiled state and wraps around Flouncy instead. Flouncy wriggles but, feels the stress of tight muscles constricting her. She wiggles he fairy like ears and manages a huge blast of water to wash over the pair of them. Those tight coils acted as a strange sort of life preserver, loosening up enough to free her.

Fl: -8E/-11H ~~~ O: -8E/-10H

As the water receded, O-ren shook to warm itself up. Flouncy was annoying enough, but nothing he couldn't handle. That bladed tail swept out and knocked Flouncy on her britches. She failed as she fell, grabbing her leg in the process. That crafty snake had jabbed her with that blade.

She sat up and threw her hands forward, releasing a blast of energy that made the snake cringe and ball up. Then she cringed, somethng was definitely wrong. (-3)

Fl: -8E/-11H ~~~ O: -7E/-16H

===Round 2===

Flouncy tries to keep the momentum in her favor, but that's hard to do when you're a pudgy fat fairy thingie going up against a serpent with a penchant for attacking your poisoned veins with mental powerz! The Audino cringes, and yet she strides on, opening her mouth and forcing out a ...Yawn.

What?

Fl: -3E/-14H ~~~ O: -6E Drw

Hissing from that strange release of air, O-Ren strikes fast. She stabs the ground in front of Flouncy, and makes those britches flounce around alright. The puffball can't really keep her balance and she falls on her rear. But she's patient, cause O-Ren is slowly fading off to sleep.

Well, she was. but Flouncy blasted the snake with a second Psychic blast that slammed Oren into a low lying rock and knocked her out cold. Yipe

Fl: -8E/-10H -Spd ~~~ O: -7E/-16H Slp

Flouncy smirked, glad that the snake was out for a moment. She greedily cast a spell that began a siphon of dream health over to her end. (-3)

Fl: -8E/+8H ~~~ O: -16H

===Round 3===

O-ren hisses in her sleep, and leaves little to our imagination as to what will be happen. Flouncy grabs at her dreams of winning, and eats them alive. It's crazy to see, its a constant drain on O-ren's mental state. But O-Ren is not out of this yet. With a generous swing of its tail, Flouncy finds herself slashed by that bladed appendage.

Fl: -8E/-9H/+10H ~~~ O: -4E/-16H

Flouncy didn't approve of all these sleeper hits, and continued to try and rip these dreams away. They had to be tasty, cause O-ren sure had alot of them. But O-ren was not done here. As the dreams faded and O-ren looked to fade off, there was a hack and a hiss, and Flouncy was now covered in a strange bluish coat.

Fl: -8E/+10H Regen-stop ~~~ O: -4E/-16H

The poison still attacks Flouncy's veins (-3)

===Round 4===

With the serpent out, Razor is tossed his next competitor. Released for the general public is a off colored Smeargle, whom seems quite away its pigment is just plain strange. It raises its tail and begins to sketch hectically, paint splatters flying all around its hands until a nice pair of gloves were formed.

Flouncy bounced over, intrigued by the unique ability. Intrigued yes, but not mesmerized. She wobbled a bit and cast a spell on the opponent, leaving him slightly drained.

Fl: -11E/+17H ~~~ B: -2E/-17H Gloved!

It could have been worse. Flouncy relished her newfangled health for about twelve seconds. That was enough time for Banksy to finish lacing up those gloves and put them to their first use-a speedy jab to her face. Flouncy bounced off her back and sprawled out on her gut with her second landing. Pushing herself up, she flung herself into Banksy, who blocked high. She went low, kicking and scratching, and that knocked Banksy down.

Fl: -6E/-9H ~~~ B: -4E/-12H

Flounce was quick to lay down the law with the next hit, punching Banks in the chest, The pup sneered and delivers a pow right to the kisser! Both seemed to heal from it, so maybe it evened out?

Fl: -5E/-10H/+5H ~~~ B: -5E/-10H/+5H

The poison still attacks Flouncy's veins (-3)

===Round 5===

Flouncy keeps up her misleading but ass kicking lead by acting as if she's more hurt than she really is. Oh wait, Banksy isn't falling for it. He swings wildly with those gloves on, just as Flouncy wildly flails to attack him. His fist nails her left cheek and her foot slam into his ribcage. Both Pokemon back off and hold their injured portions, realizing blind hits hurt more than focused ones

Fl: -6E/-12H Cfn~~~ B: -6E/-14H

Ahh, but there's a tide changer. Banksy now has a minute to breathe as Flouncy wildly flails inf a different direction. Confusion sucks, especially when you aren't sure if you are on land or underwater; demonstrated by her swimming on the ground.

In a swift set of strokes, Bank founded himself a school of Draw-Fu, and made himself a high level student-hence the headband.

Fl: @_@ ~~~ B: -2E (Headband)

Britches was in a bad spot. She got up and looked at Banksy, but she seemed to forget she was fighting him. Huh, look at that. She's creating a beam. Banksy runs over to try and beat her to the punch, but Flouncy fires off the white energy and it strikes the Smeargle.

No damage seemed to have been incurred, and Bank runs over, Judo slamming her on her back. Don't think she's confused anymore.

Fl: -4E/-9H ~~~ B: -7E Simple'd

The poison still attacks Flouncy's veins (-3)

===Round 6===

Feeling Fearless, Banks tries his new found counter skills to the test, and thrusts his arms out E. Honda style at the unsuspecting critter. Flouncy is taken back by the severity of the strike, but manages to deal three of them before his overzealousness got the best of him. This gave Flouncy some much needed rest.

Fl: +6E/-15H ~~~ B: -4E

Still rocking the bandanna, Banks increases the intensity by throwing his palm out, and it stabbed the pink one right in the chesticle. Flouncy fell backwards, feeling her body tighten. Before it could get any worse, she made sure to kick Banksy back!

Fl: -6E/-10H par ~~~ B: -5E/-12H

Banks backed up, waiting to see if she would get up. Flouncy tried, but found herself truly paralyzed. Glad for this, Banks ran over and used his tail to lasso up Flouncy by her feet. With a massive lunge, he was able to throw her over his head and slam her into the ground.

Man, her vitals have GOT to be in the critical

Fl: *par* -14H ~~~ B: -7E

The poison still attacks Flouncy's veins (-3)..and that's enough to knock her out!

Oslo release and attacks with...Cicero Jr

[Oslo]

Nuts, didn't think the Poison would hit outside the damage cap!

Okay, Cicero Jr., let's see if you can keep yourself from pulling a Cicero. Hit hard with Draco Meteor, Outrage and then Dragon Rush.

If Banksy Sketches anything that can be used for Pain Splitting, destroy it with a Dragon Pulse.

[RaZoR LeAf]

Fingers crossed the headband will let you Detect the falling meteors and dodge them. Then Ice Punch all the way.

===Round 7===

After a week since Cicero Jr got lost on the way here, we continue this match! The serpent seems a bit weary, but nonetheless brings the pain! Try as he might Banks can't quite seem to Detect the exact locations of where the oncoming onslaught of biblical proportions are going to strike (even though they all cast shadows right where they're gonna land...) and he's blasted to damn near smoithereens. In the midst of it all, he loses the ehadband in a swath of fire, and one glove is torn to shreds.

All the while Cicero cackles from amidst the ruin.

C: -13E -2SpA ~~~ B: -20H

The one gloved wonder stands from the rubble, tail lying on the ground. Smeargle's never let their tails lie on the ground. Oh shi--

Banks dives at the serpent and swings erratically, obviously pissed off that his magnificent painting were shredded. A backhand catches Cicero off guard across the chin, and the dragon responds in kind, rattailing and whipping its body around in a uncontrolled manner.

C: -8E/-12H ~~~ B: -6E/-12H

The pair clashed summore, each beating on the other and inflicting sizeable amounts of pain. In fact, the force from the second Ice Punch pressed Cicero into the ground, but he used that momentum to throw himself and gut check Banksy! When it was all said and done, Banks fell flat on his face. Cicero smirked, but I don't think surviving a beatdown from a one-armed Smeargle was all that epic.

C: -8E/-12H ~~~ B: -6E/-12H

===Round 8===

Well now. In a flash, RL releases a Zen Mode Darmanitan. Honestly...haven't seen one of these in battle at all! Exhilarating, really. Mus doesn't disappoint in the battling department either, moving its stubbier arms and starting off with quick deluge of rocks to entomb the wily serpent. But Cicero Jr is faster. He shoots off a bolt of electricity that strikes the pudgy Pokemon and leaves it crippled for the remainder of the match.

The rocks hit, but they don't seem to have any true pinning effect on Cicero.

C: -2E/-7H ~~~ M: -5E Par

Muscavado stuck around long enough for Cicero to slither forward and rattail him, dragging the force of a waterfall behind that strike. Muscavado flew backwards, stinging from that slap.

C: -9E ~~~ M: *par* -18H

Seeing this to be an easy battle, Cicero coiled up and aimed at the still immobilized Muscavado. The fire type watched as Cicero propelled off its own force, and struggled to move. The struggle worked, and Mus rolled to the side! Cicero sped right past him and crashed in the ground pretty hard. Mus hopped over and then slammed his body weight into Cicero, giving him something to cry about.

C: -10E/-7H ~~~ B: -6E

===Round 9===

Muscavado steps back, as Cicero zips left and right around him. Trying to focus on a speeding blue blur while paralyzed was like tracking a flew when you're in a dark room. The hit didn't come from the front, but from the side. Smashed down, Mus could only applaud the tenacity of Cicero. A slow but steady stream of applause caught Cicero's attention.

He wanted more? Hell yes that could be arranged!

C: -8E Enc. ~~~ M: -3E/-11H

Whipping around in circles, Cicero once again confused the fiery opponent, and once again, the collision was nothing short of spectacular. Cicero lands, and notes that Muscavado was unable to move. Aww that sucks. Paralysis is striking at all the inopportune moments.

Wait no. No it didn't. Mus shook off the stinging pain and yawned! Cicero was just plain confused, but he knew how to end that.

C: -8E Drw ~~~ M: -3E/-11H

Mus drug his knuckles under his chest and pushed up, allowing his ears to flare up. Before he could retaliate though, the coiled dragon struck! This time, there was no escaping the bum rush. Mus fought back, batting and swatting Cicero as they tossed and tumbled around the arena, finally breaking away from each other.

C: -10E/-10H ~~~ M: -5E/-14H

As they stared each other down, Muscavado stared to glow. In a short transformation, gone was the apeish red beast, and in its place was the crystalline colored Zen Mode, ready for battle.

Upon the end of the transformation, Cicero found itself falling over...and yes, he's asleep! Not a good time to be asleep.

===Round 10===

Rocking back and forth (how does it eve walk) Mus waits for a bit as Cicero tries to wrap its head around the fact that once he was red, and now he's crystallized! Cicero's dreams however, keep that realization at bay, and leaves Mus with the ability to hop on over (it can't friggin, ugh, knees..) and slam that body into Cicero. The serpent rolls a few times, but that's it.

Or not. Cicero wriggles and jiggles, before letting off a Twister of all things! It pushes Muscavado back, but that's really all it does.

C: -4E/-12H ~~~ M: -6E/-4H

Still snoozing away, Cicero is at Mus's mercy. Not much mercy to be doled out with those beady little eyes. And..wait what? Dude. You told it to do Hammer Arm? With WHAT ARMS? I'm GLAD It's paralyzed right now, how the hell you gonna tell a cripple to use Hammer arm? That's like telling Christopher Reeves to walk up and take a number, then sit back down and wait you turn.

Cicero, dude, seriously, wake up. No. No you're just gonna lie there and drool. Eww Dratini drool. Oh wait, its rolling in a circle. Pretty fast too. Ahh...Agilitized.

C: -4E +2Spd ~~~ M: *par*

Muscavado shook off the paralysis (unfortunatly) and now rolls -no seriously, thank you. Thank you for using a move that makes sense. You're fat and round. Roll. Roll all over Cicero. See, yeap. Cicero doesn't even move. He just opens his beady eyes, pats his fat nose and rams the hell out of you Mus....

¬¬....oh.
