Challenging Blizza! Mikachu vs Blade, Ref Oslo

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Before Blizza confuses you, confuse her with Swagger!
And OK, don't use Rock Type moves then. Gyro Ball.
Another Gyro Ball just because.

Don't use relax, at least not yet. Hang in there and take the damage you need to do these moves.

I thought that was that *smacks himself*

Well my next Pokemon's Puskuri, my Female Flaffy with Static Ability.

Start off by guarding yourself with Cotton Guard.
Also, Light Screen!
Then start damaging with Thunder.

[Blademaster]

*Full Restore*

...Alright, Blizza, he won because I fucked up one of your moves. That doesn't mean he's better than us. Let's go.

Use Hail. Then use Haze against that Light Screen. Finish with Double Team.

[Blademaster]

Blizza then reaches deep into her Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness moveset and spews a dense layer of black fog over the battle. It obscures all the action but doesn't seem to be doing a thing about Puskuri's Light Screen. Looks kinda cool and ominous, though!

Haze eliminates stat changes, does it not?

Are raised Phsyical and Special defenses not stat changes?

[Oslo]

Haze resets stat modifiers. Light Screen halves the damage of incoming Special Attacks but doesn't actually modify the user's stats, so Haze does nuttin' here.

[Blademaster]

And Cotton Guard...?

[Oslo]

fu fu fu

you saw nothing

[Blademaster]

Water Pulse, Ancientpower, Double-Edge.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Protect, we can't afford confusion now!
In turn, try to paralyze her with Zap Cannon!
End with Thunderbolt!

Puskuri, Charge Beam, I need your Special Attack up!
Then Thunderbolt.
Another Thunderbolt ends this round, hopefully she's finally paralyzed.

Swagger, Mind Reader, Sheer Cold.

Water Pulse, Ominous Wind, Blizzard.

If she fires off any more Electric attacks, counter them with Ice Beams.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Puskuri, use Toxic!
If you failed that due to confusion or something else, Toxic again. If you succeeded, Iron Tail!
Regardless of you having failed or not Protect last turn.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Start with Power Gem, Puskuri.
Then time for something completely different. Rest!
Sleep Talk is a natural choice then.

[Blademaster]

You're mine.

Barrel through those pebbles with an Ice Beam. Roar to force her to stay awake. Then put her down with a Blizzard.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

OK, I used like over 6 hours and finally figured out my fourth Pokemon.

I'll send out my Female Larvesta with Flame Body.

Since she's unnamed, both Blade and Oslo can start suggesting names, starting from now!

Also, Larvesta, start the battle with Agility!
Advance with Psychic! However, if you see her using Flying type moves, dodge with more Agility!
Finish with Flamethrower. Again dodge a potential Flying type move with Agility.

EDIT: Larvesta can't learn Agility, I didn't notice it until now. Change that to U-Turn unless this is against ASB rules.

[Oslo]

Bump for Blade.

[Blademaster]

Water Pulse, Ancientpower, Air Cutter.

• ROUND SIXTEEN •

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -9 HP CAN'T MOVE!		As the battle slogs on, Mikachu releases his next Pokemon. A little fiery scuttlebug takes to the field and receives the warm welcome of a Water Pulse to the face. Ooph. A simple hello would have sufficed. To make matters worse, Larvesta tries to sprint around to increase her Speed but winds up faceplanting instead. Some folks just aint agile, hun.		BLIZZA -4 EP

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -12 HP -9 EP		Blizza keeps things going by flapping her wings and setting a tumbling mass of brown energy loose upon her foe. Poor Larvesta is knocked onto her back and takes a moment to catch her breath before fighting back with a Psychic attack. Blizza is sent slamming into the wall of the castle and narrows her eyes. Betch. Don't even.		BLIZZA -9 HP -4 EP

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -16 HP CRIT -10 EP		Blizza once again beats her wings hard. Razors of air materialize and spiral toward Larvesta, scoring a critical hit. Jeepers. The little bearded bug can't catch a break, can she? She breathes orange and gold flames all over Blizza, who doesn't much care for the heat. Can't fault her for that.		BLIZZA -17 HP -4 EP

...Is there supposed to be nothing in that window? Or is the site glitching up somehow?

[Oslo]

Now that we have the new [ctable] tag to center tables, any previous reffings using the former [center][table] method hide the content of the tables until the tags are edited. It's kind of annoying because now it means all the old reffing templates formatted this way have to be manually edited or they won't display the contents. Anyway, I'll go ahead and fix this round...

[Blademaster]

How useful.

Water Pulse, Ancientpower, Water Pulse.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Larvesta, Flare Blitz, twice!
Finish with Morning Sun.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Um, it would be Oslo's turn to ref, but he has so much other things to do, should we call this a DQ?

[Oslo]

I can finish this. Just get Blade to post here and confirm that he's interested in continuing.

[Blademaster]

Eh.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

If I'm not mistaken, I can still win in theory. I lost Mesmeritse and Puskuri but succeeded with Brooh \m/

So if I had the chance to win Blizza with both Larvesta and my final fifth Pokemon, I would win this 3-2 unless I'm forgetting something.

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -9 HP -7 HP RECOIL -12 EP		As the battle continues, Blizza lets out a howl and spits out a spiraling stream of water. Larvesta takes the attack to the face and winds up all gross and soggy. She retaliates with a reckless flaming tackle that does a lot of damage to Blizza but also leaves Larvesta injured as well. That outcome was comme ci comme ça.		BLIZZA -20 HP -4 EP

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -12 HP -7 HP RECOIL -12 EP		With a powerful wing flap, Blizza unleashes a wealth of Rock-type energy at Larvesta, who takes the attack and keeps up the Flare Blitz shenanigans. Whoo! You show that blue bird!		BLIZZA -20 HP -4 EP

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -5 HP CAPPED CFN -0 HP CFN CAPPED		And again, Blizza does the whole Water Pulse thing. This time, as the attack strikes Larvesta, it induces Confusion. The poor Bug can't help but swat herself in the face. If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else?		BLIZZA -4 EP

Going out with a bang, triple Flare Blitz! Hopefully you snap out of the confusion in time.

[Blademaster]

Fly out of her range and rain down more Ancientpower attacks on her until she faints.

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -12 HP -3 HP CFN		Poor Larvesta is in a bad state. Her Confusion refuses to let up and causes her to headbutt the ground rather violently. Blizza soars high overhead and unleashes a volley of ancient energy. A brown beam smacks into Larvesta and deals hefty damage. Confused she may be, but she's lucid enough to recognize that her body can't take much more of this.		BLIZZA -4 EP

OOOOOOOOOOOOO				OOOOOOOOOOOOO
LARVESTA -8 HP		Aaaaand here's the finisher: Blizza goes for one final AncientPower, which proves to be too much for Larvesta to endure. She is flung across the battlefield by the sheer force of the attack and loses consciousness. Battle over! Blade and Blizza win!		BLIZZA -4 EP
