Round 24
Kufang's speed continues to increase [ +10% Spd S. Kufang ] as he hovers over towards his new opponent and gets dust in her eyes [ -3HP, -10% Acc Mara / -1PP S. Kufang ]. Temporarily blinded, the jackyl sets her foot aflame and kicks Kufang's double, nearling destroying it [ -13HP Clonefang / -6PP Mara ].
85/88 97/94

Kufang flutters over his bipedal foe and sprays another volley of wind energy at her, dealing weakened damage [ -3HP Mara / -3PP S. Kufang ], while Mara retalliates by slamming the clone with several rocks, finally destroying it [ -2HP Clonefang / -5PP Mara ].
85/85 94/89

Mara, now knowing exactly who to attack, watches the yanmega as he prepares himself. Before he can fire it off though, she knows exactly what he's going to do and slices at the air before he can, creating a blade of air that slices through Kufang's exoskeleton [ -14HP S. Kufang / -6PP Mara ]. The yanmega pulls himself back together before creating a similar effect with the winds that blasts into Mara just the same [ -7HP Mara / -4PP S. Kufang ].

Round 25
The dragonfly speeds up yet again [ +10% Spd S. Kufang ] as he stares into the lucaria's eyes. Mara's eyelids get heavier and heavier until she ultimately gives into slumber [ -3PP S. Kufang / +100% Slp Mara ].
71/78 87/83

With his foe out of commission temporarily, Kufang is free to hit her with a harsh slash of wind energy [ -7HP Mara / -4PP S. Kufang ]. The wind blade knocks Mara out of her slumber and she instantly remembers what she's to do. Setting aside grogginess, Mara hurls more rocks at her foe [ -14HP S. Kufang / -5PP Mara ].
57/76 80/78

Kufang suddenly charges at the enemy lucaria and sideswipes her for weak damage [ -4HP Mara / -3PP S. Kufang ] before retreating back to his side of the plateau. But his technique is still bested by another rock slide from Mara [ -14HP S. Kufang / -5PP Mara ].

Round 26
And again [ +10% Spd S. Kufang ]. Kufang charges up some earth-based energy based entirely on his surroundings. The blast is released and slams into the lucaria for moderate damage [ -7HP Mara / -5PP S. Kufang ]. Mara simply shrugs off the attack and counters with another powerful rock slide [ -14HP S. Kufang / -5PP Mara ].
27/68 69/68

Another blast of earth-based energy hits Mara [ -7HP Mara / -5PP S. Kufang ], this time causing her to forget entirely what she was doing!
27/63 62/68

And a third time [ -7HP Mara / -5PP S. Kufang ], but the lucaria keeps her guard up and throws another rock slide volley at her bug foe [ -14HP S. Kufang / -5PP Mara ].

Round 27
Barely trucking, Kufang gets faster and faster [ +10% Spd S. Kufang ]. He takes advantage of this superior speed ans splits his body into five pieces, increasing his evasion [ -6PP, +80% Eva S. Kufang ]. Mara tries desperately to locate the correct bug, but as waves of hypnosis come to her from every which way, her eyes get heavier and heavier until she succumbs to slumber [ -3PP S. Kufang / +Slp Mara ].
13/49 55/63

Mara continues to slumber as Kufang enters her dreamstate and starts devouring everything in sight [ -10HP Mara / -8PP, +5HP S. Kufang ], rocking the lucaria out of it. She shudders for a second before throwing a volley of rocks right at the correct Kufang [ -14HP, -80% Eva S. Kufang / -5PP Mara ], destroying all of his clones in the process.
4/41 45/58
Kufang can only watch in horror as another series of rocks comes crashing down upon him [ -4HP S. Kufang / -5PP Mara ], ending his tenure. Melg recalls his fallen bug pokemon and replaces him with a metal avion: Kazeshini, a skarmory.

Round 28
Mara sees Kaze and instantly springs to action, hitting him with a sucker punch that quickly drains his life away [ -6HP Kazeshini / -4PP, +3HP Mara ]. Not having any of that, Kaze retalliates by climbing higher into the skies before drilling down into Mara's torso with her metal beak [ -8HP Mara / -5PP Kazeshini ].
94/95 40/49

Mara continues the proceedure [ -6HP Kazeshini / -4PP, +3HP Mara ], while Kaze once more ascends, slashing at the air to create a blade that rips into the fighting pokemon [ -7HP Mara / -4PP Kazeshini ].
88/91 37/45

Once more, with feeling [ -6HP Kazeshini / -4PP, +3HP Mara ], and Kaze retalliates with another drill peck [ -8HP Mara / -5PP Kazeshini ].

Round 29
Before Kaze can even escape to higher altitudes, he is pegged by Mara's flaming foot [ -12HP Kazeshini / -6PP Mara ]. The metallic aero-plane immediately climbs upwards to avoid anymore of her shenanigans, while simultaneously raising his own defense levels [ +20% Def, -5PP Kazeshini ].
72/81 32/35

Mara attempts to hit her foe with a shocking punch, but the effort falls flat due to a combination of her lack of vision and his high altitude [ -5PP Mara ]. Kaze maintains his height, actively sharpening his beak in the air [ +20% Atk, -5PP Kazeshini ].
72/76 32/29

Kaze finally comes down from his lofty place of perfection and strikes down hard, dealing incredible damage to the jackyl [ -10HP Mara / -5PP Kazeshini ] before she drains his own lifeforce with another draining punch [ -4HP Kazeshini / -4PP, +2HP Mara ].

Round 30
Kaze climbs higher into the skies once more to peg the lucaria with a drilling beak. However, as he dives down to deliver it, Mara focuses on him and, milliseconds before the attack connects, she ducks out of the way, causing the aero-plane to hault as quickly as possible to avoid slamming into the ground [ -10PP Mara / -6PP Kazeshini ].
68/65 24/15

With her foe closer to the ground, Mara is free to strike him with another blaze kick [ -10HP Kazeshini / -6PP Mara ]. The skarmory shakes off the attack before dropping a series of rock bombs around the arena [ -5PP Kazeshini / Stealth Rock activated ].
58/60 24/9
Struck with a violent punch of electric energy [ -9HP Kazeshini / -5PP Mara ], the skarmory shakes it off and connects with an actual drill peck this time [ -10HP Mara/ -5PP Kazeshini ].

Round 31
Kaze focuses his efforts and transfers a good deal of his energy into a perfectly-sculpted clone [ -15HP, -5PP Kazeshini / +15HP Skarmory Doll ]. Meanwhile, Mara uses up the last of her energy created a similar volley of rocks that will now plague Team MLG [ -4PP Mara / Stealth Rock activated ]. The lucaria stumbles to the ground, exhausted.
34/50 14/0

With Mara forced to regain energy [ +10PP Mara ], Kaze is free to summon another set of rocks [ -5PP Kazeshini / Stealth Rock increased ].
34/45 14/10
Still going [ +10PP Mara ], Mara is subject to face the wrath of the skarmory's seismic dive [ -10HP Mara / -5PP Kazeshini ].

As Mara remains frozen with exhaustion [ +10HP Mara ], Kaze seizes the opportunity to bring her down with a swift aerial tackle. The force of it knocks her to the ground and out of the battle easily [ -4HP Mara / -3PP Kazeshini ].
34/42 0/30

Dragonis recalls Mara, and replaces her with the final member of this battle: Nurse Betty, a nurturing blissey who tries so hard to maneuver around the rocks, but ultimately fails to do so [ -6HP N. Betty ].

Round 33
Kaze, still with a lot of fight left, leaps into the air and glides across the plateau before slapping Betty with a collection of dust that ultimately renders her slightly less seeing [ -4HP, -10% Acc N. Betty / -1PP Kazeshini ]. Betty blinks a few times to try to offset her blurry vision, and summons a wave of gravity to infect the battlefield [ -5PP N. Betty / Gravity activated ]. Suddenly finding it too heavy to sail around swiftly, Kaze lands on the ground safely.
34/41 90/95

The wonderbird then makes things more confusing for his foe by splitting his body into several clones [ -5PP, +66% Eva Kazeshini ]. It'd be confusing for Betty if she could even see the clones or Kaze -- but because of the substitute, her judgment is obscured. Betty ultimately lets loose a chilling blast of electricity which strike's the skarmory doll quite harshly [ -14HP Skarmory Doll / -7PP N. Betty ].
34/36 90/88

Kaze ends the next round by slowly hobbling over to his opponent and slapping her with another collection of dust [ -4HP, -10% Acc N. Betty / -2PP Kazeshini ]. The blissey, still concentrating on the only thing she can see, ends the bird with a flamethrower [ -1HP Skarmory Doll / -7PP N. Betty ]. The doll crumbles and the nurse celebrates before four more skarmory become ever apparent. The hell?

Round 34
Betty becomes surrounded by the five metal birds, each making her more angry with their individual cackling [ -2PP Kazeshini / N. Betty Taunted ]. In her anger, she snaps her fingers and fires off a wave of tiny electric bullets that slice through each clone, making them dissipate, and hindering Kaze's evasive maneuvers [ -6HP Kazeshini / -4PP N. Betty ].
28/32 82/77

Kaze retalliates not with an attack, but by rubbing his metallic wings against his torso, creating a threatening sound that pierces Betty's eardrums terribly [ -20% SpD N. Betty / -3PP Kazeshini ]. She waits for the awful sound to end, charging up for an electric attack as she does so. In just a second's time, the attack is fully-charged and fully-released at the flightless bird, causing great damage [ -7HP Kazeshini / -4PP, +10% SpA N. Betty ].
21/29 82/73

Still not attacking her, Kaze starts... running around the plateau creating a tailwind that boosts his speed [ -6PP, +200% Spd Kazeshini ]. But even his faster speed can't save him from the flaming chain Betty had fired at him [ -15HP Kazeshini / -7PP N. Betty ]. Feeling refreshed, the effects of Kaze's taunts have been taken care of.

Round 36
Anil starts his tenure by blasting the blissey with a similarly charged beam of pure electric current [ -7HP N. Betty / -4PP Anil V. ]. Betty takes the hit in stride before keeping her mind at ease [ -5PP, +10% SpA, +10% SpD N. Betty ].
97/96 75/57
The balloon golem, still unable to sail in the air, fires off another blast of electric energy that fries the nursing pokemon [ -6HP N. Betty / -4PP, +10% SpA Anil V. ]. Betty responds in turn, sending off a similar blast of electric energy that ruffles Anil's non-feathers [ -10HP Anil V. / -4PP, +10% SpA N. Betty ].
87/92 67/52

Anil bats at the ground, shooting a collection of mud and dust into Betty's eyes [ -3HP, -10% Acc N. Betty / -1PP Anil V. ]. The dust obscures her vision greatly, so Betty decides not to take any chances before sending a series of electric bullets every which way. The bullets crash into Anil [ -8HP Anil V. / -4PP N. Betty ] as the gravity is lifted from the arena.
