Round 9

Arena: A basic, grassy field. To the left of you, there is grass. Then, if you turn your head, you will see more grass. Oh wait, there's a burnt bit of grass there. Don't look that way. Instead, if you look to your right, you will see some lovely grass.

Sorry about the delays, real life has been getting in the way.

[VirtualPlay]

Okay, first off just let me know how many more turns are left on Safeguard (since I'm assuming you just forgot to put it in Kana's status). Secondly, my attacks.

Start off with your own Double Team,, wail on him with a Psycho Cut, then throw your own Shadow Ball at him.

Double Team ~^~ Psycho Cut ~^~ Shadow Ball

[chaos_redefined]

fix'd. safeguard, as well as reflect and the special defense one that has a name currently escaping my mind last 5 rounds, including the round in which it is used.

bump for houndude

[chaos_redefined]

Houndude is past the DQ period. Does VP want him DQ'd?

[VirtualPlay]

Not yet, I really want to get this battle done, even though he hasn't signed onto TPM since the 18th. I'll post again if I think it's gotten too far…

[houndude]

Hey guys, sorry for the delay on my part. I usually rely on getting emails from here to tell me when to come check stuff when I need to and I haven't gotten one in awhile so I didn't think to come back. I'm really sorry. I'll edit my attacks into this post in a bit.

Ok Gastly, start off this round with a Rain Dance to get rid of those clones. Next hit Kana with a Payback and finish up the round with a Shadow Ball of your own.

Reversal of last round: Kana makes some clones, and Gastly rains all over them

Gastly: -6EN
Kana: -3EN, +3 clones, -3 clones

~Second turn~

Kana charges somewhere random and makes a cut. It appears to have missed, except, the psychic power of it cut into Gastly. Gastly doesn't get mad, he gets payback.

Gastly: -16 HP, -10 EN
Kana: -10 HP, - 6 EN

~Third turn~

Kana releases a wave of energy, while Gastly releases a ball of darkness. The ball of darkness hits Kana, while the wave of energy hits all the Gastlys, knocking out all but the real one.

Houndude and Gastly to attack next

I've started including the little circles next to people's names to represent # pokemon used. And I'm also looking at including weather conditions. Any comments would be appreciated.

[VirtualPlay]

Um, I think you really need to check your math and who did what damage. Your numbers are quite odd…

[houndude]

I am actually more confused about how it wound up that I was the one creating the clones and that, despite them being rained on and destroyed, they still came into play in the last part of the round. Granted, they didn't end up affecting anything.

[chaos_redefined]

Fixed both of those problems. And, houndude, they kinda actually affected some stuff, since Rain Dance and Double Team have different EN costs. (I also noticed I screwed up the formula for Kana's Psycho Cut)

Sorry about that guys. I'll try to be more awake in future reffings.

[houndude]

It's fine, don't worry about it, and I forgot about the energy costs being different. Anyway, well Gastly this round is going to be pretty simple, just go all out with Shadow Balls. Good luck out there.

Shadow Ball x3

[VirtualPlay]

Okay, Kana, we have this one. Remember back when you were a Kirlia, or even a Ralts, and call upon the special move of Imprison. That should hold off those balls of shadow. Then while she's wasting time with her unusable move, whack her with two Psycho Cuts.

~First turn~

Gastly fires a ball of shadows at Kana, and then is left wondering "How did I do that?" as Kana blocks the memories from his head.

Gastly: Imprisoned (No Double Team, Shadow Ball or Rain Dance for 5 attacks), -10 EN
Kana: -12 HP, -8 EN

~Second turn~

Huh? What's this shadow ball? Slash-Slash. Why are you giving me these crazy "shadow ball" moves?

Gastly: -16 HP
Kana: -6 EN

~Third turn~

I told you, I dont know this shadow ball move. Slash-Slash. How are we gonna win if you keep telling me moves like that?

[VirtualPlay]

Okay, we're almost there. Shadow Ball to change things up. If that doesn't cause her to faint, relax once and finish with a Psycho Cut.

[houndude]

Well Gastly you gave it your all and for that I commend you. Start off by using a Giga Drain, if by some miracle you survive then hit your opponent with a Dark Pulse x2.

Giga Drain~ Dark Pulse x2

Good luck.
