We join our battlers Lavados and Entei in their battle of epic proportions as they act as if they were bitter rivals. Lavados starts this round.

Lavados channels the powers of the ancient spirits and flings the scorching hot rocks from its surroundings and flings them at Entei. Entei try to dodge but isn't fast enough and gets hit by a few. He then shoots an invisible beam at Lavados.
[Lavados: -9 HP -11 PP/ Entei: -12 HP -5 PP/ Gravity in effect for 1 more turn]

Entei starts by running up to Lavados and then stomps onto his poor wing. Entei starts burning up and Lavados shoots 20 ninja star like stars from both his wings and cut and scrape Entei.
[Lavados: -13 HP -10 PP/Entei -12 HP -8 PP -2 HP from burn]

Lavados feels light as a feather and flies up into the sky.
[Gravity is lifted]

Entei just watches it's opponent come towards it with its wings spread out. Lavados flies quickly towards Entei and hits his stomach with his wing and takes him up into the sky. He then suspends him by his feet with his wings waiting to drop him to the ground.
[Lavados: - 14 PP/Entei -14 HP +6 PP -3 HP from burn]

Notes:
Entei can not learn Earthquake that is why he did not do anything on the third turn

[Greyfox]

Okay, I've gone over your mock reffing, Emerald, and I unfortunately must decline you. For one, the damage from Swift was way too high (should be doing 7 - 8 max, unless it's boosted). Also, despite being a fire-type, Entei got burned. Fire-type pokemon are immune to burn status.

Better luck next time...

[Emerald_Gen.3]

so do i redo or wait for the next battle?

[Greyfox]

You'll hafta wait until the newest mock reffing.

[Emerald_Gen.3]

alright

[Emerald_Gen.3]

can anyone sub ref this battle > http://www.pokemasters.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=25403

[Wolfsong]

*makes puppy eyes* Can we please get a ref here?

[Skye]

Could we get a sub ref please? :x

http://www.pokemasters.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=25436

[BTPoke]

Considering Eragam's gone AWOL, I'm gonna need a Sub-Sub-Ref for My SZ adventure.

Didn't exactly know whether to post this here or on the SZ main thread xD

[WAR ANVIL]

I need a sub-ref here, please.

[Perfect Chaos]

Looks like we're gonna need a sub-ref for this battle as well.

Previous ref? Yup you guessed it, Era

EDIT: Also, if anyone else needs a sub-ref for a battle I'm not already involved in, PM me or post it here, I'd like to help Darkly take a load off as well

[jelibean man]

Looking for a ref foe this battle if anyone is interested
http://www.pokemasters.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=25523

[Perfect Chaos]

So firepokemon decided to call DQ on this battle

It was a 4 on 4 but firepokemon got down to starting with his 4th and last Pokemon and Era was gonna lose his 3rd Pokemon (more than 50% health gone). Does this mean fp and I get 6 Points and Era gets 3 Points? And would this count as towards my Rewards or nay?

Sorry this was actually the first battled I started reffing but unfortunately couldn't completely so still confused on how the rules work exactly.

[DarkestLight]

PC: Yes, that's correct. Close too.

[Perfect Chaos]

So we got a forfeit here, how does the point distribution work here if it even applies?

WHY CAN'T I FINISH REFFING A SINGLE MATCH DAMMIT!

[DarkestLight]

o.O You were close. Let see here

It was a 2 on 2.

In fact, since Clown's second Pokemon hit the 55% mark, its a complete battle. Attribute points as you see fit.! Ya did finish one

[Perfect Chaos]

Bah, I'm the type where if all the Pokemon aren't knocked out completely, its not a fully completed battle.

Maybe I'm just old-fashioned

[WAR ANVIL]

Methinks I'm-a try my hand at this reffing schtick. WARNING: may contain RNG shenanigans!

Due to Entei's slight speed advantage, he's off first. He inhales deep, and fires off a strange beam directed right at Lavados' brain. Rude. The flaming phoenix, with a miraculous amount of strength, somehow pulls some gigantic multicolored rocks out of the sand (Chaos Emeralds, much?) and shoves them all down Entei's face, dealing some super-effective damage. And is that the gravity inching back to normal?
{Lavados: -8HP, -16EP; Entei: -12HP!, -8EP; Gravity for 1 more turn}

{Swift: crit roll 1782 (no); Stomp: crit roll 1500 (no), effect roll 82 (no)}
The fire lion...dog...thingy then gallops over to the flaming notAngry Bird, literally putting his foot down as revenge for that Multicolored Rock Shooter gig of hers - obviously boosted by his 120% Attack stat, even! Lav just simply throws some literal stars his way, which also do decent damage.

Lavados suddenly feels all that excess gravity go bye-bye, and she can soar into the sky again. Doesn't change Pressure's effects one bit, though.
{Lavados: -8HP, -10EP; Entei: -6HP, -8EP; No more Gravity}

{Sky Drop: first part; Earthquake: WHAT?! (Punches Trainer 2)}
Entei then tries to give the earth a bad case of seismographic sickness...but can't. What the HECK, Trainer?! Anyway, Lavados takes this sweet opportunity to snag the derpy old fire beast and take him up to the sky. Ooh.
{Lavados: -10EP, ready to attack; Entei: nope.avi}
~~~

Notes
- Entei didn't do a thing on action 3, as it can't learn Earthquake at all.
- Pressure doubles the opposing Pokémon's EP usage. That's why Lavados' EP usage values seem a little R'Duckulus at first.

With that, comments and criticism are appreciated.

[Emerald_Gen.3]

dont mean to but whens this mock battle changing to a different one I wanna ref some people too XD

[Greyfox]

Didn't you already try this mock reffing and not get approved? Yeah you did, actually. Lemme put another one up and you can try that one.

Sorry, Em.

[Oslo]

You still have to evaluate WAR ANVIL, though.

[Rossymore]

Okay, I should probably say something before it gets too out of hand, but everyone's noticed that I haven't reffed anything in weeks. Fact of the matter is, I have just lost interest in reffing. I knew this would happen since coming to university as my free time is decreasing more and more and I hoped to end it better then this, but oh well.

I would therefore like to withdraw from my position as Master Ref and feel guilty with all the chaos this creates. I'm not leaving the ASB, but I'm done with reffing. It was fun while it lasted and I like how many matches I have reffed as well as becoming one of the more popular and well known refs. I know that my track record has been shaky and I have vanished for months at a time, but I would like to have one less thing to worry about.

Sorry for all the trouble this will cause and thanks for all the good times. Now to head over to the Safari Zone and quit that as well. Ohhh the guilt!

[DarkestLight]

Rossy. link the battles you are reffing in your previous post so we can divvy them up. i call dibs on the Gym Battle.

[Oslo]

Oslo can take a battle (but preferably not the pie battle, 'cause that's like huge).

[Rossymore]

Sorry to everyone in this list, but you're victims of a bad time keeper.

[Oslo]

I'll take Mystic_Clown vs. Skye. I'll try to have the next round up tomorrow (or, that failing, the day after).

And I've also dumped my reffings on others before, so don't worry about it.

[Perfect Chaos]

I'll take yours and DL's battle Oslo, though I've been known to slack on reffing as well, I'm currently bored out of mind while job-hunting and playing Marvel: Avengers Alliance on Facebook, so this should help keep me preoccupied in the meanwhile

[BTPoke]

I'll ref Oslo's Gym Battle. I may as well, considering the speed at which I ref is the speed at which the battle's finished, and then I can challenge Oslo again >:3

Plus, It's good to be on the reffing side of the challenge spectrum. I'll have it done tonight.

[Oslo]

Sorry, BTPoke, but I think Darkly already called dibs on that one.

[DarkestLight]

Naa, Bt has a reason to post it. Go for it man. That leaves me with....chaos vs underscore. SEND ME THE PM's and Ill get it rocking. BT's eagerness over the gym battle will prove to be a solid motivator

[BTPoke]

Oh, I'm sorry about that, Darkest. I saw your post about that, but I guess I forgot it in my excitement xD

Crunch+Acrobatics~Aqua Tail

We come into this battle as PARKOUR and POPSTAR are battling. The trainers call out their commands and the battle resumes.

PARKOUR runs forward at a full sprint and punches right in POPSTAR's gut. Whoowee that must have hurt but POPSTAR gets right back up and runs up to PARKOUR and bites down... on a rock. POPSTAR hears PARKOUR's laughter and goes in swinging around like Tarzan and flys gracefully right into PARKOUR.
[PARKOUR: -7 HP/-4 Energy/+3 HP]-[POPSTAR: -6 HP/-11 Energy]

PARKOUR searches for POPSTAR as charging up his Focus Punch and as soon as he's tired of searching, a huge tail made of water whipped him across his face and knocked him to the ground, he gets up and punches at where the tail came from. He gets POPSTAR right in the...rock.
[PARKOUR: -9 HP/-13 Energy]-[POPSTAR: -7 Energy]

POPSTAR starts to look for PARKOUR after losing him thanks to that Focus Punch and trips over something and falls really hard. He looks back and sees that he tripped on a little piece of grass. PARKOUR just laughs maniacally, Joker much?
[PARKOUR: -10 Energy]-[POPSTAR: -9 HP]

Something in POPSTAR unlocks as she channels her power over water.

Water surges into POPSTAR's body and she feels a little better

[RaZoR LeAf]

Decided to give the new mock reffing a go. You know. 'Cos I can.

Popstar perches herself on the edge of a rock. Having taken quite a blow in the last round, she has no intention of being beaten down again. Blinking in the darkness, she makes out the shape of her foe nearby. Launching off the rock, she bounces from one rock to another, flips in the air and dives mnouth first at her fighting foe. The force of her fall knocks the two bouncing across the rocky floor, the aqua monkey holding on by clamping her teeth down hard on Medicham's shoulder. Parkour mutters a furious insult under his breath, pulls the Simipour off and delivers a furious punch to the water types gut, draining precious energy from the pokemon at the same time.

Parkour HP-10, PP-4 ; HP+5
Popstar HP-10, PP-4

Clutching her stomach in pain, Popstar sulks back into the shadow forcing Parkour to search for her again. A flicker of movement catches his attention, and having been focusing hard on finding his foe, Parkour surges forward and throws a powerful punch, straight into a stack of unstable rocks. The rocks shatter under the force, but Parkour howls as he pulls back his hand in pain. Popstar on the other hand, keeps slowly moving around, keeping her distance and staying in the shadows.

Parkour HP-0, PP-12 ; Missed
Popstar HP-0, PP-2 ;

Both pokemon squint into the darkness again. Shadows flicker and shapes appear to move around. It's difficult to tell which is which. Hoping he's found his foe this time, Parkour encourages the moss and lichen in the cave to grow, sending vines and tendrils out of the rocks in order to trip Popstar. Luckily for the perky celebrity, she's already jumped off the ground into her attack, swinging in mid air and slapping Parkour in the face with her wet tail. As she lands, Popstar is unfortunate enough to step back on the tendrils, which trap her foot and send her crashing down to the floor. Popstar's heart starts pumping faster, sending adrenaline into her veins in a torrent.

Parkour HP-8, PP-4
Popstar HP-8, PP-5; HP+3; Torrent

Arena
Accuracy drops by 2 stages due to the poor lighting.
Explosive attacks may falter in the damp conditions

- The stats that are listed in bold are boosts from outside the moves performed. Medicham's Pure Power boost and the Arena's accuracy drops.
- Medicham has Atk+ listed twice as a result, due to the +1 being a separate in battle boost.
- Panpour's gender wasn't specified, so I put it as female based on its lovely hair.

[RaZoR LeAf]

Can I have confirmation of these four battles being viable to get a Ref Reward please?

Darkest Light vs Wolfsong 1 vs 1
Crown34 vs Cynder 2 vs 2
BTPoke vs Chris 2.1 2 vs 2 (DQ but viable)
[DTT] Oslo vs Darkest Light 1 vs 1


4 Points banked - Free Catch - Egg - Great Ball can wait

[DarkestLight]

Yeap. They all are good. Good lord I forgot about that one with Wolfy XD

[Emerald_Gen.3]

Grey where you at man?

[Greyfox]

Alright Em and Dan, after examining your mock reffings I've concluded that you both are fit for registration and promotion respectively. Emerald, you are approved as a Beginner Ref, while RaZor, you are promoted to rank of Master Ref.

The main thread will be updated accordingly.

Ohhhh, he is going DOWN!

Popstar peers through the fog, searching for Parkour. It doesn't take her long to locate the opponent, and perfectly aware of him now, she shoots forwards at ridiculously high speeds, slamming into him hard. She's not sure what "crunch" is, so she decides to stick to the Acrobatics. With Popstar now in range, he's ready to hit. His fist becomes surrounded by a green energy, and he slams his fist into Popstar, the green orb seemingly draining health from her. She looks angry now, and somewhat tired.
[Popstar: -6% EP, -7% HP] [Parkour: -4% EP, -5% HP, +3% HP]

Parkour begins to focus, quite deeply, taking his mind off the battle. Popstar takes advantage of his uselessness and sneaks over, ready to attack. There's no way she can miss at this range. She sticks out her tail, and focuses energy on it. A spiral of water begins to spin around it, and she slams her tail against Parkour, hard. The Medicham goes flying and lands on the ground, looking irritated now that his attack has been broken, though it's obvious now that Popstar is beginning to have to put a little more effort into her actions...
[Popstar: -6% EP] [Parkour: -5% HP]

Now it's Popstar's turn to be useless. She's not quite sure what to do, with no action to perform. Parkour grins and grabs Popstar, leaping into the air before slamming her down against the ground and elegantly flipping over her weakened body. However, the floating ring around Popstar recovers a little bit of her HP.
