I'll ref this if you like.
For this battle, I think I'll use the newest addition to my team. Go, Valkyrie! (Pidgeot, F)
I think i'll give Serenity another shot at battling. She's my female togetic. Ok, Serenity, I want you to start out with safeguard. next i want you to use future sight, and finish off with present.
Safeguard ~ Future Sight ~ Present.
Well, here goes. Let's make this first round count. While she's busy Safeguarding herself from nothing we'll ever throw at her, Fly as high up into the air as you can. Then come down upon her with a Silverhawke!
Note to ref: Silverhawke is, quite simply, a combo of a speedy strike (Quick Attack in this case), and Steel Wing. Basically, Valkyrie uses the Quick Attack, gravity, and her own weight to get going as fast as possible before either spearing or slashing her target with sharp metallic wings.

Gah I forgot about this I'm terribly sorry.

Arena Status Drunken horse arena of dooom
BATTLE
Valkryie grins all evil-like and stuff, and suddenly zooms high into the air like a rocket. Serenity smiles calmly and buzzes a slight bit above the ground. Three stars appear around her and begin to circle her body, casting a magical charm to prevent from evil status effecters that Valkryie may try to use. When the casting is over the three stars disappear and Serenity looks to her opponent who flaps his wings calmly in the air. Neither pokemon shows much signs of fatigue.
Serenity smiles and waves her fingers into the air, as if trying to summon something...greater. Valkryie feels it too: an aura in the air, as if to bring forth a great assault. Serenity saddens as the aura fades without bringing on an assault, but maybe next time it will work...
Valkryie now grins, and aims at Serenity. Her wings gain a steelish tint, and suddenly she zooms down with godly speeds. Within a few feet or Serenity she lets gravity finish the attack and she spreads her wings back as a huge blade of doom. Serenity screams in pain as the Pidgeot's steel wing is embedded deep into her stomach. Valkryie laughs and takes her wing out. Blood flows steadily out of Serenity's stomach, and she gags in pain as she lays down on the ground, in extreme pain and unable to complete the round's commands. Valkryie goes back airborne, though not that high anymore.
Valkyrie (Pidgeot F): 100%, airborne [lower] (14%)

I didn't even notice the wait. Just got back, myself ^_^
Valkyrie, we're doing very nicely for your first battle. I just want you to kick up a bit of sand into her eyes, multiply yourself a little bit, and pound your opponent with a Double-Edge. If she tries a Double Team of her own, just blast them all away with Swift. Not much else a tired mind can do with a Pidgeot at the moment.
Sand Attack/Swift~Double Team/Swift~Double-Edge/Swift
Sorry been busy with moving back to my dorm
Serenity, I want you to start with double tem, to make him use swift. Next, use a swift of your own, and finish off things with metronome. No matter what happens i know you're giving it your best shot.

BATTLE
As another round unfolds in the evil drunken horse arena, it is clear who it at the advantage and who is not. Even under the veil of safeguard, Serenity is not in a happy position. Then again, a strange psychic aura flows through the arena signalling the coming of something...more.
Serenity gets up slowly, and winces as the bloody wound is revealed. Focusing, she duplicates her body into many clones: though not solid, they hold many qualities perfect for annoying an enemy. Valkryie smiles happily and sends off a barrage of stars towards the many clones, wiping them out one by one and making the real Serenity cry out in pain. Valkryie continues to fly low around the arena, not very worried at what might come next.
Valkryie smiles, and imitates Serenity's last tactic by duplicating her own body. Serenity smiles and wipes out the clones with a barrage of stars of her own, making Valkryie wince. Darn that fairy.
Valkryie grins, and gets ready to dive. Coming into battling stance, she zooms down like a bullet with wings outstretched ready to bludgeon her prey: Serenity. Serenity begins to wave her fingers left and right, left and right, left and right, calling forth a new attack. As the large bird of fury comes nearer, Serenity's fingers glow bright, and Valkryie rams right into a fiery blast of draconic energy. Valkryie screams in pain as the blast ignites pain to her head, and ends up more tumbling than ramming into Serenity. Serenity lets out a loud "eep" and Valkryie and herself collapse in a head on the ground. A rumbling sound fills the battlefield...almost like hooves galloping...odd, very odd...wonder what will happen next. The strange aura around the arena grows larger...uhoh
Valkyrie (Pidgeot F): 88%, collapsed in a heap, nose hurting a little (23%)
Serenity (Togetic F): 67%, Safeguard active [3 actions], collapsed in a heap (24%)
Arena Status Drunken horse arena of doom, Future Sight active, rumbling...oh no!
Ok, Serenity. Nice job. I want you to do your best to get airborne. If you can't just use protect when the horses come through. Next i want you two follow up with two more metronomes. No matter what happens I'm proud of you.
Get airborne/Protect ~ Metronome/protect ~ Metronome/Protect
Valkyrie, I want you to attempt to Fly up and get airborne again as well. However, if you can't, it looks like you'll simply have to Protect yourself from the horses for the entire round as well. If you do manage to get up, though, blast Serenity with Razor Wind from afar. If she's on the ground using Protect (and you don't have to), just Curse up instead. It's not like any attacks you do will be able to hurt her anyways.

BATTLE
The rumbling around the arena gets louder, and from a little bit away large drunken horses can be seen rampaging around. Uhoh, this cannot be good at all. The horses come closer to the battlers, and the battle starts. Serenity and Valkryie both jump into the air flapping their wings and using carbuncled flight in serenity's case. Suddenly, something long and smooth slams into Valkryie, and a huge onslaught of psychic energy hurls the Pidgeot to the ground! Serenity's future sight attack has finally slammed into Valkryie! Valkryie screams as the horses come right at her and she cannot do a thing! BAM! She hears the slamming of horse hooves above her, and realizes that she was able to put up her protective sheild in time. But the horses keep coming!
Valkryie pants as she continues to try to put up her reflective shield. The shield stays up as more energy is dumped into it to protect Valkryie from the onslaught. Serenity is sitting happily on the tree, and she begins to move her fingers left and right, left and right. Suddenly, the ground begins to crack around the horses and large rocks jerk out of the ground! They slam down on the horses and Pidgeot, and some horses fall, but Pidgeot is left unharmed to the protective shield.
Valkryie huffs and puffs and strains herself to insane limits to continue to keep the shield up. Serenity smiles happily and moves her fingers left and right again. Valkryie pants, and suddenly the shield falters. Oh no! This cannot be good. The rampaging horses beat down on Valkryie with huge hooves while Valkryie screams in pain as hooves beat down on her wings, face, and body. Ouchies. Serenity's fingers glow, and suddenly an eerie glow fills the arena like last time. Oh no! Valkryie can feel the aura too, and cringes. It was the downfall of her this time, what about the next time?

Ouch, why did the randomizer have to pick the first action for Valkryie to be hit by Future Sight? Then again, it did give her luck with the double protect, but the 25% chance didn't work. Ack...X_x that must hurt to be trampled by horses....
Valkyrie, we're in a very bad situation here. Suffice it to say, we're screwed. You've lost the ability to fly, and next time those horses come you're probably dead. Swift x3, if you're up to it.
Ok, Serenity, don't get cocky, but things look better. I want you to start with safeguard. Next, I want you to se rain danmce, and finish with zap cannon, which hopefully will be more accurate because of the rain.

BATTLE
Last round was terrible for Valkryie, who lays in a terribly hurt heap on the ground, in extreme pain. Serenity smiles from the safety of the trees, and swings her legs from the branches happily.
Valkryie screws up her face in sorrow that her trainer is disappointed in her. Serenity laughs at Valkryie, and coats herself with the protective shield to block out the torturous elements. Syberia is sad...no, no, no! Some inner fire within Valkryie is triggered, giving her renewed strength to fight! Though her wings may be clipped, she struggles to get to her feet and launches a barrage of stars at Serenity. Totally caught off guard, Serenity screams as the shurikens embed themselves into her skin. Now angry, Serenity stands up upon the limb of the tree and prepares for combat.
Valkryie smiles awkwardly, and a trickle of blood runs down her face. Die, fairy! Another barrage of deathly shurikens rains down on Serenity's parade, and Serenity cringes as more stars strike into her skin. Speaking of raining, Serenity makes a prayer to the raingod, summoning up a storm. Clouds come overhead, and it begins to rain: lightly at first, but then it gets heavier. Valkryie sighs, but then lifts her head up again. For Syberia!
Though her wings are punctured, totally wet, and her entire body is weighed down, Valkryie musters up the power to send another barrage of shurikens at Serenity. The little fairy gives a cry of pain again, but now turns her expression to one of anger. "Foolish bird, do you not see? All this was just to prepare you for what is coming next! Feel my wrath!" Suddenly, a huge orb of powerful electricity shoots from Serenity's outstretched hands, coming down upon the bird like Zeus's bolts. Valkryie tries to dodge the blast, but it grazes her right wing. Suddenly, it shoots through her body. Valkryie screeches in pain as the lightning courses through her body, and falls into a heap as the torture ends abruptly.

It is my belief that when one Pokemon is losing so badly and they can see that their trainer is upset or sad, some sort of inner fire is activated. Meh, like a lost energy reserve unaccessable through any other means.
Ok, Serenity,good job. Now i want you to start out with metronome. Thern toss that pidgeot a lovely present, and finish with zap cannon if its still raining, metronome if it isn't
Metronome ~ Present ~ Zap Cannon/Metronome
Swift x3, and Reflect for the final action if Serenity decides to use a Zap Cannon.
