[Ghost] Leader Zarator vs Birkal

3v3 Gym Singles (Challenger PMs 3 Pokemon, Gym Leader PMs 6 Pokemon)
2 days DQ
Arena: Forlorn Graveyard
Switch = OK
Items = ON

Substitute Orders: 2
No Mega Evolutions
Sending order is randomly decided.
Arena: The Forlorn Graveyard
Restrictions: None

People have stopped burying people in this abandoned graveyard for centuries, but there is still an eerie aura all over the place. The grass looks more grey than green (despite this not affecting Grass-type moves at all), and most Pokemon and people avoid the place instinctively. Some trainers however still visit this place to strengthen the link with their Pokemon, especially Ghost-type ones. A still lake formed in a fissure in the ground, however the dark water makes it impossible to see what lies in its depths

The odd aura of this graveyard has several effects in battle:
  • Focus Blast has 100% accuracy, and the base power of Aura Sphere and Hidden Power is raised by (2). It is very easy to focus oneself's soul in this place.
  • Will-O-Wisp has 100% accuracy. There are always wisps floating around to provide decent enough fodder for this wicked spell.
  • Pain Split has its base energy cost reduced by (2), and all draining attacks are empowered as if the Pokemon were holding Big Root, but without incurring the extra energy cost (this effect doesn't stack with Big Root itself). Life energies are easier to drain and consume in this place.
  • All Pokemon's max HP are reduced to 90. The aura of sorrow which permeates this place withers the strength and the resolve of all the Pokemon battling in its surroundings - even Ghost-types.
  • There are some leftover scrap parts, scattered around the arena. Rotom can tap into them, raising its Special Attack and Special Defense by 1 rank as long as it stays in its original form (without any appliance).

I'll probably do flavor later.

Team Birkal:
Dambe | Revenankh (M)
Dambe is a form of boxing from West Africa. Battles are primarily focused on strong blows from fists wrapped in cloth, but also utilizes fists as defensive shields suited for blocking. Traditional battles often feature amulets to bring good luck from the spirits. Revenankh learned its name by combining trickery with power in the Fighting Gym Qualifier versus AOPSUser. ▶

Gah, totally forgot about this -- sorry!

Knock Off | Grass Knot | Ice Punch

If Golurk uses a Ghost-type combination attack, use Bide that action.
If Golurk uses Zen Headbutt, use Glare on the first instance and Pain Split on the second. Push back actions each time.​

It's been an impossibly busy week. Pretty lame it had to go down like this, zarator, especially when I would order right now...
