‡ Round 12 ‡
Death by pies is truly a tragic thing and DCM has no choice but to recall his pie-covered Squirtle to its Pokeball. His next selection takes to the field with a burst of crimson light. A frightening purple ghost does an airborne lap around the tent to showboat and cackles maniacally. (I would just like to point out that when I originally typed this, I used to the word “frightenous” to describe Gengar, which is not a word at all. Good work, Oslo.) Suddenly, DL throws a pumpkin pie at Loudred, further widening the health disparity between these two fighters. Whatevs! Let’s just get this underway!
Loudred: <-8 HP>
Orpheus: <…>
As the next round officially begins, Orpheus starts by spouting some rather rude insults. The Gengar cruelly informs Loudred that she’s no sound system at all; in fact, she’s as quiet as a mouse with laryngitis wearing soft-soled shoes! Woah, buddy. I’m sure that crossed some line in Loudred world. Loudred is infuriated to the point of reckless attack, abandoning whatever strategy he had in mind to instead swipe at Orpheus in rage. Of course, since he’s, y’know, a Ghost and everything, this rage-fuelled attempt at violence fails.
Loudred: <-2 EP; Tnt>
Orpheus: <-4 EP>
As Loudred stands there and fumes, Orpheus makes eye contact with the big lout and, through mysterious Hypnotic powers, begins to lull his foe into a deep sleep. Suddenly, it’s too much for Loudred: the Big Voice Pokemon buckles and falls, out like a light.
Loudred: <Slp>
Orpheus: <-4 EP>
Having successfully incapacitated his foe, Orpheus is free to run amok. Taking a DBZ-esque stance, he unleashes a concentrated blast of pure energy at Loudred. The attack’s effects are devastating, throwing Loudred way up to the top of the tent before he lands with a thud on the ground. Ouchies. Ridiculously, through all that, Loudred continues to sleep.
Loudred: <-18 HP; Zzz>
Orpheus: <-10 EP>
