BATTLE
~~~~~

Hep is seeing triple as the snarling electric types wait for him to make the first move. He takes action, scrounging the ground for mud, but there is no moister at all in this wasteland, so he opts for sand. Dirt flies and reveals the true Electrike but Renard is none the wiser, closing his eyes and smelling the air to have a perfect scent location of Hep’.
This bad decision, along with the constant throbbing in his backside, infuriates him into a rushing tackle. Renard shakes the dirt away just as the blood shot eyes of Hep’ lock with his and he is slammed hard but he right himself from the blow to strike back with a beam, tinged orange. Hep’ absorbs the energy and suddenly feel’s his muscles lock.
As a preverbal sitting duck, Hep’ struggles against his own body as Renard watches amused…

We can probably finish him off by round's end, Bleu! Firstly, I want you to 1Charge up, then fire off a 2Thunderbolt!. Finally, you can 3relax. Be sure to dodge any Toxic attempts with Quick Attack however, as per usual.

Ok Heph! First use Yawn as he Charges! Then use Toxic twice, making him dodge and getting him tired, easy target to fall asleep.

BATTLE
~~~~~

Hephaestus slowly begins to regain his motor functions again, shaking and flexing himself to make sure he’s ok to continue. Renard uses down time to power up, planting his paws down and glowing with sporadic electricity bouncing off of him. The light show catches the slugs attention and he grins finally having an free opening to attack. With great joy he launches another Yawn attack, and this time, its strikes head on, dazing Renard to lose half of the energy he’s collected.
He can feel his eye’s droop, his body sagging down, but he shakes it away, he can’t go down this easily! Hep’ attacks again, and the poison sails to find its mark but his orders are clear making the Eletrike speed away like a bullet just as the Toxic hits the sand.
He slides to a stop, many feet away from the bubbling ooze but using that burst of speed only quickened the pace of the sleeping agent. Unwillingly, Renard topples on his side dead asleep as well as the victim of yet another Toxic bath from Hep’. The Slugma wheezes and burns dimmer and happily lays down as well, fatigue taking over….

Alright, MLG chooses and attacks, then drew attacks

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

And that's when the cheapness got the best of MLG. I'll send out Gaia, my male Onix.

Ok, first use a Curse to power yourself up! Then use Sand tomb to trap Bleu and finish with Earthquake for heavy damage!

EDIT: Very good job Heph, you deserve your evolution.

[Greyfox]

We're in quite a pickle, Bleu; it's no matter, however. Just wait until you're imprisoned by the sand tomb to attack. The attack should knock you back to consciousness, and because Gaia's reaction time will be much slower due to his curse, he'll be unable to see this plan coming.

Alright, when the sand tomb wakes you up, I want you to blast the rocks away with a super-charged 1Thunder! Then, since he is much, much slower than you, I want you to use 2Quick Attack, but not as an offense. Use it to launch yourself onto the onix's tail and 3latch on tight! His earthquake won't be as effective with you safely perched on his rocky exterior!

However, if my original theory proves false, and the sand tomb keeps you asleep somehow, merely Sleep Talk until your consciousness is restored.

BATTLE
~~~~~

Hephaestus returns to his home in his pokeball and is quickly switched to a new adversary. The energy pours out and starts to rise…and rise…and RISE, until it forms into a looming, bellowing Onix. Gaia snorts at the sleeping mutt and roars to the sky conjuring a force of unknown power. This darkness surrounds him inscribing on his forehead a pentagram like figure, and quite literally his body moves in slow motion. Renard simply dozes as the ground beneath him starts to churn, creating a sand pit of flying rocks! One stone thankfully cracks him in the noggin and abruptly awakens him to half his body sucked into the quicksand and as he struggles against the current he discharges massive bolts to shatters the debris. Losing the fight with the earth technique, the ground swallows Renard up to his neck, making him appear as buried beach bum and leaving him open for the cataclysmic smash of Gaia’s tail. The ripple of the quake tears through the terrain and nails Renard to fling him through the air like a rag doll and land in a heap…

BATTLE
~~~~~

Renard staggers to his legs and stares high and the Onix towering over him. He grits his teeth and bolts away, chased by a tail of white light, in an attempt to out speed the giant. Gaia lumbers upwards and bellow a mighty roar, which despite the Eletrike’s agility stops him in his tracks in a cold fear, locking him up. As Renard has turned into a standing target, the mighty Onix drops his mammoth tail and ripples the earth with titanic quakes. The earth churns and tosses the frightened hound skyward to land in a heap, but Renard shakily gets up and lays on his side, catching haggard breathes. Gaia lowers himself as well, never taking the eyes off his opponent….

You've done well, Renard, but you needn't push yourself any longer. I return you. With that in mind, it's now time to choose my fourth pokémon. Kusairisuishou, you are the elect!



KUSAIRISUISHOU (jap. grass blade)
#253 Female Shiny Grovyle
Type Grass/
0.1.0

Kusair, the heat is unavoidable, but we'll be fine. Gaia's attempts to adjust the weather will be futile considering it's a banned attack, so your vision will be spared. Use 1Sword's Dance to gather your strength, then 2Agility to avoid the Body Slam. Finally, leap up at him (hopefully while he's using Earthquake) and slash with 3Leaf Blade!

BATTLE

Drew sullenly raises his pokeball and fires the red beam to reclaim his worn electric type. This battle is vastly mismatched and he knows this is the proper decision and with a flick of the wrist he throws for his grass fighter, Kuairisuishou. Onix bellow loudly and wishes to conjure a storm of earthly pain but a sharp whistle is blown. The ref steps over and throws a flag down stating that the maneuver is illegal and that the opponent will have a free turn. The shiny Grovyle snarls and spins rapidly, generating a ghostly energy that raises her attack exponentially, and she lowers into a fighter stance. Feeling slightly embarrassed, Gaia raises him self to full height and slowly tumbles to the ground but Kuair bounces from foot to foot, blurring away from the behemoth drop site. She reappears behind Gaia, blades glowing with a surreal green light, sharpened to a T. Slow moving as he is, the rock snake is no match to dodge the cunning slash Kuair delivers to his face and he wince to slam his tail and send a small quake through the plains, wobbling the Grovyle a bit….

Nicely done, Kusair. Now, Onix doesn't have any fire attacks to speak of, so you'll be safe from them. Start off by using 1Safeguard, then, take advantage of your newfound strength by using a quick 2+3*Agility + Brick Break combo!

Kuair breathes calmly and surrounds herself in a veil of silver light that remains as a thin glow on her body. She watches the Onix intently as he roars at the sky and flashes white and covers Kuair as well. The Grovyle shudders as the Onix copies her raised attack and safeguards but she shakes it off to lower in a striking stance. Dispite his orders, Gaia is far to slow and lumbering to avoid Kuair completely and she charges in a swift green/blue blur and smashes the Golden serpent in his segmented body with 3 precise chops just as his head tunnels into the earth. Kuair snarls as she peers down the dark hole just as Gaia curls up to rest himself…

Return? Gaia certainly doesn't have much to be happy about, Kusair, so you'll be fine. When that massive rock titan comes your way, hit him hard with a head-on 1Leaf Blade! Then, before he can use his Double Team, I want you to use 2Agility to climb onto his back as to avoid his final attack. While you're there, give him hell with 3Giga Drain!

A light rumbling stirs under the reptile as Gaia charges like a bullet train. He glows with a barely visible white glow, a marker of how happy he really is, which isn’t very much. Kuair powers her arm blades and with precise action leaps and slashes Gaia right in the eye. The snake screeches as he loses depth perception from the lack of a useful left eye.

Following up with her amazing speed, the Grovyle scales Gaia all the way to his head and hangs onto his central horn. Gaia could hardly follow Kuair with 2 eyes, let alone 1, and with no idea where she could be he flashes and splits into triplets.

The 3 Golden Onix’s roar with anger over losing their prey and slams the ground in hopes of trapping the fast creature. Kuair stifles a laugh and embeds her claws into Gaia’s cranium to sap precious green orbs of life from him. The shock of the sneak attack halts the Sand Tomb and destroys the clones. Kuair leaps away from her opponent stylishly and chuckles.

The lizard poises herself and rushes at the Onix, who shines glossy and quickly hardens his body. Kuair strikes fast with breaking karate chops and leaps back with a yelp. Her hand throbs from the density of her opponent and she snarls.

Gaia smirks and raises his mighty bulk and drops like a mountain on top of Kuair who sits and nurses her aching hands. She squeals in shock & pain as she is pinned down and franticly claws to free herself.

With nowhere to go and momentarily stunned, Gaia rises up and charges at shiny Grovyle, shimmering with a dark light of pent up frustrations. Kuair staggers up and but quickly belted away by an emotionally charged tackle. She skids to a stop on her back and springs up to fire a barrage of energy bullets that cause server pain to the Golden Onix

As Gaia looms, the aching Kuair sneers and screams insults and flashes her rears. This assault shocks and appalls the Golden serpent and he rushes to deal due justice, but with his eye injury, he is off by a meter and slams the round instead.

Kuair sighs and crouches to gain some energy as the thoroughly confused Onix Roars in contempt of missing his opponent. Kuair shivers a bit from the echoing bellow, but she remains still and endures.

Gaia finds his target, straining his good eye, and heavily drops himself. The shiny reptile is unafraid and lifts her claws toward Gaia, glowing with a deep crimson. The same light surrounds Gaia and he stops in mid fall, shudders and is thrown like a giant rag doll into the distance. With a glint of happiness in her eyes, the safeguard around her and Gaia vanishes…

Grey's forfeit.

4 pokemon were used? That gives me and Verm how many points?

Ok, I did some research and I think I receive 8 points, and so does Verm.

It was a nice battle and my first if I'm not mistaken. *wheeps of nostalgia* Oh well, I got some points ^^

I believe so, sorry to hear he's going as well...I really wanted to finish this out and prove I could do a long battle. Oh well, another time ^_^.
