Ok Drake, use flamethrower, iron tail and another flamethrower. If she uses double team, use your attacks in a line to find the right one. If she puts you to sleep, use sleep talk

~Round 10... go!~
As soon as Lyra disappears from the field, a new Pokemon appears to take her spot: a huge, majestic Charizard. Drake spits a little fire in the air as he stares down the Swablu in front of him - Melian stares back, feeling a little nervous. The trainers shout their commands and the round begins.
Drake begins quickly, spreading his wings and fanning out into a line of 5 identical Charizard clones. This, however, does not faze Melian in the slightest: the Swablu flaps her wings, giving her lift into the air, before swooping quickly at the Charizard she's absolutely convinced is the real one. And... she's right! Melian drives her beak hard into Drake's chest, sending him stumbling back in shock as his clones disappear into thin air. (-4% EN Drake, -6% HP Drake, -4% EN Melian)
Drake scowls and picks himself back up. He rears back his head, gathering energy in his throat, as Melian begins yet another divebomb. However, before she can reach her target, Drake exhales a huge blast of super-heated wind, catching the Swablu in it and sending her hurtling back. Melian tumbles to the ground and moans, the sun having powered up the Heat Wave. (-2% EN Melian, -7% EN Drake, -12% HP Melian)
Melian slowly flaps her way into the air again and begins a third aerial assault upon Drake... and this time, she hits! However, just as Melian strikes, Drake pulls back his fist and nails her right on the side of the head with a blazing Fire Punch. Once more, she finds herself tumbling to the ground, hurting. (-6% HP Drake, -9% HP Melian, -4% EN Melian, -6% EN Drake)

~Round 11... go!~
Still fresh and ready to go, Drake smirks and glares at Melian. Melian, feeling slightly less intimidated from last round, puts up a steely gaze right back. However, she doesn't keep the facade for long: the Swablu closes her eyes and begins a silent prayer. Drake, not concerned with what his foe is doing, rears back his head and exhales a mighty blast of fire. It heads straight for Melian... but a sudden downpour from the sky hampers the Flamethrower's effectiveness somewhat. Nonetheless, it still hits and hurts Melian. (-7% HP Melian, -5% EN Drake, -5% EN Melian)
Drake scowls and closes his eyes for a moment, focusing his energy. When he opens his eyes again, his tail has taken on a silver metallic sheen. He jumps in the air and spins around, using his tail like a whip; however, this gives Melian a golden opportunity. Before Drake lands his blow, Melian spits out a ray of ice and snow that she aims directly at the Charizard's wings. A thin layer of ice begins to form on them before Drake strikes hard, bringing his tail down on Melian. Melian flies back and lands on the ground, slightly dazed. (-10% HP Melian, -9% HP Drake, -7% EN Drake, -6% EN Melian)
Drake keeps up the tempo: before Melian can get back up, he spits another stream of fire straight at the abused Swablu. Melian takes the hit and slowly floats back up before firing yet another Ice Beam at Drake, this one aimed at his neck. The attack lands, and a coat of ice begins to form around Drake's throat. (-7% HP Melian, -9% HP Drake, -5% EN Drake, -6% EN Melian)

~Round 12... go!~
Ice is weighing down his wings, but it doesn't seem to be worrying Drake unduly: he just smirks and begins to summon a massive burst of pressurized air from deep inside his gut. The severe heat of the air serves another purpose: as Drake belches out the Heat wave, the ice constricting his throat melts clear away. As the temperature of the arena ups somewhat, the ice on his wings also melts away. Melian takes the Heat Wave, still scalded despite the rain pouring down. However, this does not stop her from firing a ray of her own: a beam of nonelemental energy originates from her beak and barrels straight into Drake. Drake absorbs the blow, not looking terribly worried. (-8% HP Melian, -7% HP Drake, -4% EN Melian, -6% EN Drake)
Drake takes a step back and opens his mouth; a blue, sparking ball of energy forming in front of him. Melian glances with more than a little apprehension at the Dragon Rage, but nevertheless begins to form another beam of her own. Drake, being significantly less tired, finishes his attack first and fires off the orb of draconic energy, but Melian releases her Secret Power mere moments later. The two projectiles pass in midair and impact with their respective targets, Melian coming out of the exchange looking worse for the wear and Drake looking slightly bruised... but not paralyzed, as Melian and her trainer had hoped. (-7% HP Melian, -7% HP Drake, -4% EN Melian, -5% EN Drake)
The last exchange of attacks functions pretty similarly to the second. Secret Power on one end, Dragon Rage on the other. (-7% HP Melian, -7% HP Drake, -4% EN Melian, -5% EN Drake)
As the round ends, Melian looks pretty beat up, while Drake just smiles triumphantly.

The rain continues to pour, ruffling Melian's feathers and causing a bit of steam to rise from Drake's tail. However, the battlers barely notice: they both realize that this battle is almost at an end and they focus their whole attention on it. Melian begins by alighting on the ground and holding her wings over her ears, but Drake isn't having any of that - he roars loudly nonetheless, the call reverberating from his gaping maw. As one might expect, this is more than a little intimidating for Melian, even without sound. The Swift she was preparing dies in her throat, so to speak; the shock driving attacking from her mind. (-1% EN Melian, -2% EN Drake)
Still freshly intimidated, Melian tries to fly through the air and attack her foe, but her fear slows her down a bit, and Drake has ample time to attack. A blue orb of draconic energy barrels at Melian, and she's in no condition to dodge: the Dragon Rage hits her, leaving her out cold. (-7% HP Melian, -5% EN Drake)
