Official Gym Leader Battle
Round 06
Arena:
As both Pokémon stand (or float), tired and worn, the Arena isn’t much better for wear. The huge sheet of ice is still there, and with all the icy attacks from Osiris, it doesn’t seem to want to go away. Two craters also show on the arena. Shallow, but wide, one’s the result of Osiris’s disagreement with gravity (gravity won); the other, of Osiris’s anger being taken out on Biohazard. Soot still lightly covers the arena, but it has yet been shown to hinder the battle.

================================
Pre-Battle:
Both Pokémon were worn out and looking for some kind of relief. Biohazard floated, frozen, while Osiris stood poisoned with his 5 Double Team clones. But both looked determined, nonetheless.
The ref, in his car, still had the music blaring. It didn’t seem to have any effect during the last round, and neither battler seemed to mind, so he switched to a different soundtrack. It turned to the Seiken Densetsu 3 battle theme, and the ref lowered the volume just long enough to get the attacks.
T_M_L quickly called out, “Let's do this Osiris. First use a Blizzard to freeze him up a bit more and then use a Psywave. Finally, use a Metronome to mix things up and make the ref go crazy.” She smiles a little, but if she were to just look, she’d know that the ref was already crazy enough.
Quickly the ref turned to Prodigy, ready for a set of attacks. Unfortunately, he got a pep talk. “Things aren't going too well for you, are they, Biohazard? Counter Poliwrath's Blizzard with a Fire Blast, hopefully warming yourself up a bit in the process. Blizzards are going to be blasted at you from each of Poliwrath's mirror images, but only one is real - since they'll all be aimed at you, they'll probably converge as they get closer, so launch your attack as they come together.
“Now, those clones are going to make things difficult, so sweep through them with a Psywave of your own, holding yours back until Poliwrath's hits if necessary. eliminating those mirror images is a priority, so it'd be a shame if the two Psywaves just ran into each other and neutralized themselves. Finally, attack with Psybeam. We'll just have to hope that Metronome doesn't pull up anything dangerous.”
Almost asleep, the ref turned the battle music up higher and swung his arm down. The bell pierced the music and the round began.
*DING*
================================
Biohazard, sick with the cold, quickly tried getting a Fire Blast ready. The large amount of heat inside his body successfully did what he was hoping, and the ice around his body melted and evaporated, before the remaining heat was launched out in the “big” Kanji.
Osiris had his own little problem to work out, what with the poison invading his body and all. Fortunately, he still had an easier time moving around, so calling a Blizzard forward wasn’t that hard. The widespread icy blast headed towards Biohazard and his “big” fire. The Kanji flame managed to block some of the Blizzard, and kept any from hitting Biohazard, but the flame withered and didn’t fly much farther after the storm was gone.
Osiris: HP: 18% || Fatigue: 70% — Status: poisoned; 5 clones
Biohazard: HP: 18% || Fatigue: 74% — Status: no longer frozen; tired
Not too pleased at the fact that Biohazard managed to get by the attack, Osiris sent out a Psywave. The energy waves flowed through the air at Biohazard. Most missed, but a few lucky waves tore into Biohazard, causing him great pain.
Quickly Biohazard countered with a Psywave of his own. The waves flowed towards Osiris and his clones. Most of his clones dissolved when the waves ripped through, but Osiris himself was hit as well. The poison in his body wasn’t helping him either.
Osiris: HP: 10% || Fatigue: 77% — Status: poison is weakening; 1 clone
Biohazard: HP: 13% || Fatigue: 79% — Status: tired
Osiris then concentrated hard. He lifted up his index fingers and started swinging them back and forth. His clone did likewise. From somewhere, a loud tick-tock started pulsing in time with his beat. Time seemed to stand still for a few seconds, before Osiris raised both hands in the air. A loud gong sounded, and from the skies a huge Thunder attack struck Biohazard.
Now in great great pain, Biohazard struggled to stay conscious and pull off his next attack. Aiming as best as he can, he shot out a huge beam of Psychic energy. The attack smacked into Osiris, knocking him down, but not out. He barely managed to hold on to his clone as he went down.
Osiris: HP: 2% || Fatigue: 82% — Status: poisoned still; 1 clone
Biohazard: HP: 4% || Fatigue: 85% — Status: slightly paralyzed; tired
Both Pokémon eyed each other warily. The ref was about to call the end of the round, when suddenly Osiris looks sick. Turning purple, then green, he fell flat to the ground; his clone dissolved. From nowhere, a Nurse Joy and a Blissey rushed over to check on Osiris.
He had indeed fainted from poisoning. T_M_L recalled him, thinking about what Pokémon she’s going to use next as she handed his Pokéball to Joy.

Nothing has changed. Period.
Osiris the Poliwrath has fainted. The_Missing_Link will choose her Pokémon, Prodigy will then choose attacks, then The_Missing_Link will choose attacks.
