Wow, that server was ridiculous. Now everything is right with the world and we can begin once again!
I apologize for the delay, I should be well on time now with all my updates.

Gym Battle: Secret Garden Helen Keller style!

===Stipulations/Changes===

New Gym:

Secret Garden!

Arena:

A secluded Chinese style garden, equipped with a pond, pagoda, bridges and rock paths.

Battle style:

Tournament style, Best out of 3 (subject to negotiation). Each team uses 1v1, and fight until one is defeated. The victor records a point, and both send out fresh combatants for the next round. This continues until the first team have 3 wins. Draws count as 0, so the match may go more than 9 combatants each. Pokemon that are recalled may not be used again in the gym.

After a battler is defeated, the VICTOR sends first, followed by the DEFEATED, who also ATTACKS first, despite the battle order previously.

Moves rules:

Rest and Pain split may only be used ONCE during the entire battle (Not per pokemon)! The move Ingrain will not work in the garden, but there are 2 (and ONLY 2) Ingrain roots already established, that any pokemon may grab on to at the cost of one action. Doing so grants that pokemon the benefit and drawback of Ingrain, and when that pokemon is defeated, the root retracts. Weather effecting moves will automatically fail to work, due to the fire suppression system, and abilities that affect the weather have no effect (eg: air lock and cloud nine).

Gym specials:

Fire suppression system, Ingrain bonuses (see above), Tournament style battle

Fire suppression system: A system implanted to protect the gardens. Has 6 settings. Starts at 0 (default).

0. No change. Battle acts as normal. The level of sun in this stage is equivalent to ‘Sunny day’.

1. Rain effect. Battle field under effect of Rain dance/Rain conditions.

2. Mist effect. Covers entire battle field.

3. Haze effect. Covers entire battle field.

4. Fog effect. Covers entire battle field in a thick layer of fog. Reduces accuracy by 50%.

5. Heavy Rain. Fire, ground and rock types take damage per turn. Solar beam takes an extra round to charge. Doubles the effect of Hydration, Water Dish, Swift Swim, and Dry skin. If thunder is used, its chance of being protected or Detected goes from 30% to 15%.

As stated above, weather moves, or abilities cannot be used, and attempting to use Defog during stages 2-4 will not removed the effect.

The system is activated AFTER any fire type move is used, and will go up one level for each fire type move used. It will remain at the setting it peaks at for 5 rounds, before defaulting down one level. This means that the first fire type move will still hit for normal damage, but subsequent moves will not. NOTE: The level's of the system STACK, so at level 3, you are also affected by level 2 AND level 1.

===Round 9===

Volt see,s to have the upper hand at the moment. As it takes a moment to focus, there seems to be glint of fire coming from the side of Lily. Not perturbed in the slightest, Volt lets loose another hellion of a blast, as Lily runs through teh rain, to let a fiery palm land on Volt's back. It stings, but the downpour stifles the pain.

Not like the Thunder that rips through and leaves Lily wondering if her trainer now hates her. The sprinklers now come on, and begin clearing thwir pipes partially. A thick mist now hangs low on the garden floor.

Li: -6E/-14H ~~~ Vo: -9E/-6H
Lvl 2 : 5 rds

Naa. Not stopping. Thunder number 5 runs to the sky, and Volt just watches as Lily seems to be at a loss. Oh wait no, those aren't hands of surrender, their hands of "I'm-about-to-strike-with-a-Hydro-Pump!"

DAAAAYUM. Volt went flying, and the Thunder than rained down leaves Lily crippled along the grass.

Li: -9E/-14H ~~~ Vo: -9E/-16H

Last moves of the round are a lather rinse repeat for the pair. How is Lily still alive, I do not know.

Li: -9E/-14H ~~~ Vo: -9E/-16H

Lily Heals up a bit (+4), but will it be enough, with Mist and Rain in play.
