The All-Comers Challenge (Refs: Darkly and Grey)

[Blademaster]

It's RAWK Hawk, you illiterate idiot. And this "ego-fest" is something I lost a lot of interest in a WHILE ago. I can't wait for it to be over. You had your moment in the spotlight. Now shut up and get out of my arena. You only ever even joined this because I needed more challengers for an even 20, anyway.

KYLE! WHERE ARE YOU?!

[Greyfox]

Dammit! Now I don't get the super special prize at the end!

[papabopp]

yeah i just read that. what is this superspecial prize?????

[Mew Master]

blade has not said yet. It could be points, or a Pokemon, or him being nice for a month, or a trip to Paris. Who knows?

[Knight of Time]

I didn't want to have to come to this, but in having to make the two hard choices of either dropping out of this battle or getting disqualified (I'm not battling because I don't have time for it still), I'm dropping out of the battle.

Sorry Blade, maybe some other time when my computer life isn't as hectic, I'll have the time to have a (regular) battle with you, perhaps when Black and White are implemented into ASB in 2011.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year guys, this is going to be my last post in ASB until I feel I am ready to come back and revive my team from its dormant state.

[Blademaster]

All will be revealed in good time... But first, we have to finish this.

I just sent Kyle a message. He has exactly one week to post here, whether it be to battle or to drop out and make room for the final contender. Come Hell or high water, this bout WILL be over by Christmas.

EDIT: You heard the man. There is one final spot open in this battle.

Spread the word.

[DarkestLight]

Wtf? Ok blade, lol.

[Greyfox]

Well... that was odd...

[chaos_redefined]

Well... an important question would be "Who hasn't battled already?" 20 people is most of ASB nowadays.

[Blademaster]

...I... honestly don't know...

...Well this is awkward...

[DarkestLight]

Wolfy :O! You haven't fought her, in like...ever I think. That would be kinda fun to watch :O

[Blademaster]

Is she still around in ASB? I never see her posts nowadays...

[Master of Paradox]

Cici, you're half-Rock. That means Fire's not as much of a danger as it would normally be to a Bug. So give him an Encore after the flames wash off your stony shell.

Next, while Rawk Hawk starts to build up for the encore performance, Wrap your tentacles around his throat. He did it to my Torkoal once, and I'm interested in seeing what happens here.

Finally, respond to the Blaze Kick with a Stone Edge. See how HE likes it!

Encore - Wrap - Stone Edge

[Master of Paradox]

Let's be an asshole!

Rest, Sleep Talk, Sleep Talk.

[Master of Paradox]

Sleep Talk, relax, Sleep Talk.

If you wake up, relax, Dig, emerge. If you wake up on the third move, Dig.

Sleep Talk/relax - Relax/Dig - Sleep Talk/emerge/Dig

[Master of Paradox]

Choke off the Sleep Talk by Constricting your tentacles around his throat. Then Dig and come up under him hard.

Constrict - Dig - emerge

[Master of Paradox]

Take a moment to catch your breath, then Constrict his throat again, and do it once more. Let's strangle him.

Relax - Constrict - Constrict

[Greyfox]

She's still here -- I'm reffing a battle for her right now, actually.

[Blademaster]

BRING HER TO ME!

[DarkestLight]

Yeah Wolfy's around. But she's stocked on battles I believe. Lemme see which one might finish for her soon....Might hafta jump on that.

[Wolfsong]

Did someone mention me?

Yeah i'm full on battles but i have a couple that hopefully will be ending soon. Though i did promise Metallixs Girl i'd battle her when i got a free spot becuase she responded to hte challenge i had posted after accepting MLG's..

If you don't mind a little wait i'll be glad to battle you.

[Darth CookieMonster]

I would like another go as well

[Blademaster]

YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE!

GET OUT LOSER!

[papabopp]

you still really waiting for someone??

[DarkestLight]

Yeah. Wolfy is coming. Her match with Mike is almost over so I'd surmise she'd be right in after that. Prolly a few more days, so this still can be over by the End of the year :O.,

[Master of Paradox]

I'm going to snipe Wolfy, actually. Blade and I have a match waiting, but I need to break the rust off.

If the spot is not reserved, then I and my Shuckle, Cici, shall like to close the show.

[Mew Master]

Oooooo. This is gonna be interesting.

[DarkestLight]

O.o Wait ..Ok so I grabbed your other post....but you are also doing this battle as well?

[Master of Paradox]

There a problem? The battle limit is four; I've gone from zero to two. I don't think there's a rule against the same person being your opponent in more than one.

If Blade approves, then I'm up for it.

[DarkestLight]

No. None at all. When I post, assume I'm drunk. Makes it easy to understand how I misread EVERYTHING X_X. You attack first :O.

And Grey. you ref Neener!

[Master of Paradox]

Well, then, Cici, wake up. Time to get back into the show life.

...man, I haven't stood in the Glitz Pit in ages. I wonder if Grubba's still screwing people over.

Start by blowing up a Sandstorm. Next, blast Rawk Hawk with a Sludge Bomb before trying to Wrap it.

[Greyfox]

Didn't think I'd hafta step in this thread again for awhile, but I guess I'm game again.

[Blademaster]

Rawk Hawk, we're in the home stretch. That snail is the final obstacle between us and freedom.

That obstacle is about to get shattered! Rawk Hawk, use Focus Punch, Stone Edge, and finish with Swords Dance. Let's see how good her grip is on a spindle moving at a hundred miles an hour!

[Greyfox]

GLITZ PIT FINAL ROUND!
BLADEMASTER V. EVERYONE!?


ROUND 92
This is it, the final battle. God knows we've been waiting almost a year for this thing to end. The final trainer is Master of Puppets, who should be choosing a master pokemon to bring us home. MoP chooses... a shuckle. Yeah.

The aforementioned shuckle, Cici, attempts to summon a sandstorm using her premier abilities. However, the sands never come, perhaps due to the arena still being indoors [ -5PP Cici ]. Rawk Hawk, who had just polished off his last elixir, gets into his zen thing before punching the tiny rockbug with his talons, sending her flying into a wall [ -20HP Cici / -9PP Rawk Hawk ].

Cici pulls herself off of the wall just in time to be slammed with Rawk's painful elbow [ -13HP Cici / -8PP Rawk Hawk ]. She pulls herself together once again, spitting off a huge blast of poison that strikes the firebird, managing to poison him as well [ -9HP, +3% Psn Rawk Hawk / -7PP Cici ]. Cici gets a lucky break after all.

The much smaller rockbug ends her techniques by whipping her arms and legs around Rawk like an unusual squid, constricting his body [ -2HP Rawk Hawk / -2PP Cici ]. Rawk, however, knowing how to deal with the situation, spins around swiftly, increasing his attack power in the process [ +20% Atk, -5PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk ]. The force of it causes Cici to lose her grip before hitting the wall a second time.

[Greyfox]

GLITZ PIT FINAL ROUND!
BLADEMASTER V. EVERYONE!?


ROUND 93
Rawk Hawk begins the second round of this bout swiftly, with a river of flames that easily toasts the turtle-like bug [ -9HP Cici / -5PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk ]. Cici likes the display so much that she applauds her foe, giving him the encouragement to try it again [ -3PP Cici / Rawk Hawk Encored ]...

...which he does. The flames swiftly wrap around Cici before she's given a chance to defend herself [ -9HP Cici / -5PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk ]. Her legs don't even get a chance to wrap around his beak.

Free of his repetition, Rawk Hawk now sets his right foot ablaze before sailing through the air like Lui Kang. The fiery bird stamps his flaming foot into Cici's shell, easily slamming her into the wall yet again [ -10HP Cici / -6PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk ]. Cici struggles to put herself back together before surrounding her entire body in stone and launching herself directly into Rawk's torso. The blow hits and it hits hard, scoring critically [ -15HP Rawk Hawk / -7PP Cici ].

[Greyfox]

GLITZ PIT FINAL ROUND!
BLADEMASTER V. EVERYONE!?


ROUND 94
Rawk Hawk and Cici dive at one another with guns a-blazin'. And by guns, I mean fists, and by a-blazin', I mean shut the hell up! Anyway, their balled up fists, combined with the power of ROCK! (not that kind) collide together, knocking eachother in every which way [ -17HP, -7PP Cici / -10HP, -8PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk ].

Shaken up, Cici decides to pull no punches and stamps her feet on the floor, creating several tremors in the Glitz Pit. But Rawk Hawk bounds high into the air, narrowly avoiding the first quake [ -8PP Cici / -5PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk ]. Rawk remains high in the air for a few seconds before swan diving towards Cici, using the momentum to tackle her with wind energy [ -10HP Cici, -1HP Rawk Hawk ]. Cici, annoyed, stamps the floor yet again, giving Rawk Hawk what for [ -15HP Rawk Hawk / -8PP Cici ]!

[Greyfox]

GLITZ PIT FINAL ROUND!
BLADEMASTER V. EVERYONE!?


ROUND 95
Uncertain of his foe's next move, Rawk Hawk decides to play the next round safe by closing his eyes and creating three near identical illusions that envelope Cici [ -8PP, -1HP, +75% Eva Rawk Hawk ]. But rather than worry about them all, Cici decides to rest her eyes [ +100% Slp, +10HP, -10PP Cici ].

Rawk attempts to taunt his foe into attacking, but she's dead asleep and can't hear him [ -2PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk / +10HP, -10PP Cici ]. While she sleeps, she mumbles, inadvertantly summoning a rock slide to pummel one of Rawk's clones [ -9% Eva Rawk Hawk ].

Rawk keeps his mind at ease knowing that he has a 66 percent chance of not being hit. As he does so, his focus becomes peaked [ -3PP, -1HP, +50% Cri Rawk Hawk ]. Cici continues to mumble before biting at a random Rawk image, making it vanish as well [ +10HP, -10PP Cici / -16% Eva Rawk Hawk ].

[Greyfox]

GLITZ PIT FINAL ROUND!
BLADEMASTER V. EVERYONE!?


ROUND 96
Rawk, decidedly pissed that his foe is sleeping during the last match of this thing (and rightfully so -- if this match passes a hundred rounds, I swear...), just keeps his cool to regain some energy [ +10PP, -1HP Rawk Hawk ] while Cici, in her seemingly infinite slumber, spits out an even more venomous blob at him, deepening his poison [ +3% Tox Rawk Hawk ].

But before the toxins can even have an effect, Rawk drifts into dreamland himself and... son... of a bitch... they're both asleep [ +10HP, -10PP, -Tox, +100% Slp Rawk Hawk ]. Cici responds by biting him... weakly [ -3HP Rawk Hawk ].

The Hawk suddenly jettisons forward, glowing in a brilliant bright aura as he crashes directly into Cici, who tries hard to endure the hit [ +10HP, -10PP Rawk Hawk / -12HP Cici ]. The sheer force of the blow snaps her out of her slumber, just in time for the round to end.

[Blademaster]

Rawk, hit her with Flamethrower, followed by an Earthquake. Finish with a Blaze Kick; kick her into the wall a THIRD time.

[Blademaster]

Paradox, get back here!
