The Arena
Deapstove Canyon
Deep inside the giant canyon, the rocks tower out above as gigantic walls, almost blocking out the sunlight. The walls are un-climbable and the top of the canyon can only be reached through flight or teleportation. The inside of the canyon is a small, but long stretched battlefield, covered in shadow and has many rocks lying scattered on it. Swords, shields and broken spears do sometimes appear to the sandy surface of the battlefields. Rumor says that there was once a huge battle. Even now, the Persian gold lays untaken, since Deapstove villagers name the place cursed and dare to go up there.
The cave lies near to the shore, where huge cliffs separate the battlefield from the sea. Falling off those cliffs will result in a -5% HP loss and a trip on the beach. The beach is cut off from the rest of the village or country by a huge wall of skeletons and Greek stone. So that means that everyone down's only option is climbing back up again (this is fairly do-able), but can be booted back down again, again resulting in a -5% HP loss, meaning, once you got the lower battle-position, you're screwed.
The battle starts on the regular place of battling, the inside of the canyon, 'where numbers don't matter'.
Ready! FIGHT!
Libra, its shiny jewel glowing in the sunlight, begins to condense its body into a much smaller portion (-5 Rolled 15, Libra stays awake). Athene, watching such a spectacle, tries to stare into the Staryu’s mind and copy this interesting trick. She sees the mental state and tries to duplicate it, but only succeeds in curling up, her size unchanged (-4).
Fully shrunk, Libra began to spin, centering around the glowing jewel (-4). Dozens of glowing yellow stars shoot out, arching for Athene. The Slowbro hears the attack and stares blankly at the onslaught as the barrage of stars comes up at her from the canyon floor. The first set of stars hits some intangible object (-6) and are stuck like throwing stars in a block of wood. More push their way into the barrier before the last set arch around and manage to score a light hit on Athene (-2).
Dropping the barrier, Athene points at Libra and sends her own jet of light-stars at the Water-Pokémon (-4). Libra starts up its spinning again, sending more stars at the Slowbro (-4).
The set of stars hit each other, the pentagon shapes shattering as they connect with the opposing stream. Despite the cascade of opposing “shooting stars” several stars get through and hit both competators (-4/-4).

Ref Notes: Rolled d20 at a Difficulty 15, got a 15 so Yawn didn’t make Libra fall asleep… yet. Will roll a d20 at each Round, any Number under 15 means Libra will fall asleep for 1d4 attacks. Psych Up copies mental changes, not physical. Since Minimize actually shrinks the user, Athene only had the thought of becoming small, not the actual effect.
MLG attacks First.
