With Mask oh so very close to exhaustion, zarator makes another switch, returning the Kitsunoh to his Pokeball! Will Registeel return to the match for the second time, or will we finally see zarator's Gengar make an appearance? Oh my! It's Cyric the Gengar alright, and he has his signature Gengarite to boot! This is Elevator Music's last chance to switch before Cyric Mega Evolves and locks Togekissu into the battlefield with Shadow Tag, but it looks like Elevator Music is sticking with his Togekiss! And zarator wastes no more time, and commands Cyric to Mega Evolve! There's a flash, and a giant burst of energy, and with that Cyric has Mega Evolved into Mega Gengar! Now that Togekissu, already low on health and energy, is locked into a duel with Cyric, let's see how he does!
With Togekissu as close to perishing as he is, Elevator Music doesn't have a whole lot of options to keep him alive for the round. So he resorts to the tried-and-true classic, Endure! Togekissu braces himself for the oncoming round, hopefully ensuring his survival! However, zarator and Cyric want none of that, and waste no time lessening Togekissu's odds of survival with a Hypnosis! Togekissu falls asleep, giving Cyric plenty of time to do as he wishes!
Now that Cyric has Togekissu in a vulnerable spot, he needs to find a way to break Endure! How is he going to do it? Oh, interesting! It looks like Cyric is using Nightmare! That will extend Togekissu's sleep for an extra action, but more importantly it'll cause damage each action Togekissu is asleep for! That'll break Endure for sure! However, while Togekissu might be less threatening while asleep he's by no means helpless! He's using Sleep Talk! Which move will he end up using? Oh my, this could be bad for zarator! It's Encore! Cyric has been encored into Nightmare for two actions, a huge boon for Elevator Music! Oh, but that took so much out of Togekissu, that with the energy drain from Nightmare Togekissu has fainted from exhaustion! Cyric and zarator draw first blood, but at a huge cost; Cyric is Encored into a useless move for two actions, giving Elevator Music a huge opportunity to make up the lost ground! This could be the turning point of the match, folks!

EDIT: EM pointed out to me that Nightmare also causes EN loss, which raises the question of whether residual EN loss causes a KO through Endure the same way residual damage would, even though it states it protects from "KO by Energy exhaustion". Texas said that it should, as per the spirit of the move, so I'm going with that, which means Togekiss dies A2. Going to bring it up in Policy and if someone else complains I'll fix the reffing again.
EDIT 2: The NDA has been changed to reflect that residual EN loss does in fact KO through Endure. No more complaining allowed ^_^

With Togekissu unable to battle, Elevator Music needs to choose whether to bring Bariyaado back out for another round or finally reveal which of his remaining Pokemon he will use as his third and final Pokemon! He picks a Pokeball, throws it out... And it's Bariyaado once again! Looks like we'll have to wait longer still to find out who Elevator Music will use as his third Pokemon!
Thanks to Togekissu's final actions, Cyric has no choice but to use Nightmare on Bariyaado, and predictably the attack fails, giving Bariyaado a prime opportunity to take advantage! And he does so! A powerful Psychic assault! It's super effective, dealing some major damage to the Mega Gengar! And Bariyaado still has one more free action; this isn't looking good for Cyric!
Once again Cyric is forced to use Nightmare, and once again the attack fails! How will Bariyaado take advantage this time? Oh, this could be bad; he's using Thunder Wave! No damage, but now Cyric is paralyzed! That takes away one of Cyric's major advantages, and gives him a rather high chance of failing his attacks! This could be really, really bad for Cyric and zarator!
Now faster, Bariyaado is going back on the offensive, firing off another powerful Psychic blow! It's super effective once again and suddenly Cyric has lost half his health! But with the Encore ended he can finally retaliate; will he be able to fight off the effects of paralysis though? He does! And he inflicts the same status on Bariyaado with a Thunder Wave of his own! Now Bariyaado is paralyzed as well! However, zarator is unquestionably in a hole now, and stuck ordering first, he could be in some serious trouble!

Stuck ordering first? May as well take advantage of it (and Shadow Tag^^)
Withdrawing Gengar and sending in Registeel once again.
Iron Head - Flash Cannon - Iron Head
If Mr. Mime has a Reflect up when you would act, replace your respective action with Brick Break. Do not use this substitution more than once in this round.
If Mr. Mime uses Counter on A1 or A3, replace your respective action with Flash Cannon.
P.S.: I just noticed now that Mr. Mime doesn't learn Knock Off -.- this is kinda big (considering how much dmg it prevented from Kit)

OMG oops... so embarrassing!
What's the best way to resolve this? Probably not reverting the battle to that round, since it happened round 1. We could pretend Mr. Mime used Struggle instead? A couple HP and En totals would change:
I know realistically our orders may have been different, but I think the result doing it like this is advantageous to you (fairly so, since it was a dumb mistake on my part >_<). But if you wanna handle it in a different way, feel free to bring it up!

Kitsunoh would still have Metal Coat (obviously)
Kitsunoh would end up with 29 HP/4 En (5 more HP, 3 more En due to less damage from Struggle, less energy spent from Pain Split with a higher HP post-Pain Split)
Mr. Mime would end up with 33 HP/35 En (13 less HP. 2 more En)
Registeel would end up with 74 HP (3 more HP, due to less damage from Endeavor)
Togekiss would still faint when it did (8 less HP and 1 more En before it faced Gengar)

And here we go again! While he may be stuck ordering first, that does give zarator the option of switching, and with Shadow Tag EM can't even counterswitch! And it looks like zarator is going to take full advantage of that! Who's he switching to... It's Registeel! This could be rough for Elevator Music, as the legendary Pokemon of Steel once again takes the stage!
With Bariyaado paralyzed, Registeel gets the Speed advantage, which must be a rarity for it! It's lumbering in for a strike! And it's a painful Iron Head! It's super effective! But the bigger question is, will Bariyaado be able to do anything between the paralysis and the flinch chance of Iron Head? Well, it looks like he can! What is he doing? He's... taking a nap? OH! It's a Rest! That cured the paralysis and will keep restoring some HP while he's fast asleep! Can zarator push through the recovery and get the KO?
With the paralysis gone, Bariyaado is faster again, but he's still fast asleep so he can't exactly do much with his new-found Speed advantage! However, Registeel is more than happy to take advantage of Bariyaado's nap! He's firing off a Flash Cannon! It's a super effective blow, but with Odd Incense boosting his already high Special Defense, and Registeel's defenses not exactly being amazing, Bariyaado is able to shrug it off!
Once again, Bariyaado remains fast asleep, recovering some much-needed HP! Registeel isn't going to let the Mr. Mime rest for free, however, and is charging forward with another Iron Head! Ouch, yet another super effective hit, and while the Rest has kept Bariyaado alive, he's not looking too great! This match is still very close; will someone finally pull ahead this round?

Clearly Elevator Music has no interest whatsoever in this matchup, as he wastes no time in switching Bariyaado out, even with it still fast asleep! Interesting move by the leader, as now Bariyaado will have to nap a while longer when it comes back out! Now who is he sending in as his third and final Pokemon? It's Mariruri the Azumarill! She's holding a Rabuta Berry; certainly an interesting choice! zarator has decided to stick with his legend, so let's get this round started!
Both Pokemon immediately begin to launch their attacks, with their Speed stats perfectly equal, but Mariruri is ever so slightly faster this time, and manages to land her Brick Break just before Registeel can hit her! It's a super effective attack, but it still seems to just glance off Registeel's exterior! And the legend immediately retaliates with a Thunderbolt! More super effective attacks, and while Registeel isn't the best offensive Pokemon it seems to be doing slightly more damage!
Mariruri isn't giving up though, and while Registeel seems to be holding back for the time being, she's charging forward, slamming Registeel with an Aqua Tail! A good, solid hit, that actually seems to have slightly outdamaged the Brick Break! However, it seems that Registeel was only holding back so that it could charge more electricity! Looks like LOTS more too! What's it all for? Oh my goodness! It's a Zap Cannon + Shock Wave combination attack! A huge super effective blow, that had to hurt! And of course since Zap Cannon was involved Mariruri is paralyzed! This could turn the tides folks!
With Mariruri paralyzed Registeel has the clear Speed advantage, but it can't take advantage of it just yet as it's recovering from its combo! However, unfortunately for Elevator Music his Azumarill can't seem to take advantage of this opportunity either; Mariruri is fully paralyzed! zarator seems to be taking a slight edge, as Registeel's massive defenses frustrate Mariruri's offense, but this is still close! Who will pull ahead in the next round?
