Once again, we have a switch, as zarator decides to save his Registeel for later and bring back Cyric the Gengar for another round! With his only other option a sleeping Mr. Mime, Elevator Music doesn't really have much of a choice but to keep Mariruri in! Will zarator take advantage of this opportunity to put a stranglehold on the battle, or will Elevator Music find a way to battle back and even things out?

Both Pokemon are paralyzed, which means that Cyric starts us off despite his usual ridiculous Speed being nerfed into the ground! He conjures up some sludge, and it explodes into a Sludge Wave that slams into Mariruri for a super effective attack! That really hurt! However, rather than retaliate, Mariruri takes another nap. That's right; it's a Rest! Mariruri fell asleep and recovered from her paralysis, and she even recovers some HP at the end of the round! An interesting choice by the Gym Leader, let's see if it works out for him!

Mariruri is fast asleep, but that won't stop her! She's using Sleep Talk to act in her sleep! Now what is she going to use? Oh! It's a Knock Off! Unfortunately with the Gengarite not being removable, it's not going to hit for its full power, but it's still a strong, super effective blow! Cyric is looking to retaliate, but oh no! Cyric is fully paralyzed! Tough blow for zarator, as that also means that Mariruri gets to sleep in peace and restore some more HP!

Once again Mariruri is fast asleep, so she's going right back to using Sleep Talk! What will Lady Luck give her to use this time? Oh my, another Knock Off! It's super effective! Will it be enough to take down Cyric!? ...Not quite! It was close, but Cyric barely hangs on! And this time he fights off the paralysis and strikes back with a Sludge Wave! It's super effective, and Mariruri woke up from the force of the blow! Oh, and what's this? Looks like Mariruri was poisoned as well! This could throw a wrench into Elevator Music's strategy down the line, but for now he has certainly improved his situation! Can he continue to shift the odds into his favour, or with zarator come up with a way to stop the Gym Leader in his tracks?

Calculations

Action 1:
Cyric used Sludge Wave
-> RNG roll for full paralysis (1-2000 for full paralysis) -> 9073 (success)
-> RNG roll to crit (1-625 to crit) -> 8850 (no crit)
-> RNG roll to poison (1-1000 to poison) -> 2721 (no poison)
(10[BAP] + 3[STAB] + 5.5[Stat Dif.]) * 1.5[SE] = 27.75 damage, 6 energy
Mariruri used Rest
-> RNG roll for full paralysis (1-1500 for full paralysis) -> 6613
15 energy, Mariruri fell asleep (3a), Mariruri recovered from paralysis!

Mariruri -> +12 HP due to Rest

Action 2:
Mariruri used Sleep Talk
-> RNG roll for move selection (1-2500=Natural Gift, 2501-5000=Knock Off, 5001-7500=Waterfall, 7501-10000=Bounce) -> 4807 (Knock Off)
4 energy, Mariruri used Knock Off
-> RNG roll to crit (1-625 to crit) -> 9246 (no crit)
(7[BAP] + 4.5[Stat Dif.]) * 1.5[SE] = 17.25 damage, 7 energy
Cyric used Sludge Bomb
-> RNG roll for full paralysis (1-2000 for full paralysis) -> 1682 (full paralysis)
Cyric was fully paralyzed! (-5% paralysis level)

Mariruri -> +12 HP due to Rest

Action 3:
Mariruri used Sleep Talk
-> RNG roll for move selection (1-2500=Natural Gift, 2501-5000=Knock Off, 5001-7500=Waterfall, 7501-10000=Bounce) -> 2759 (Knock Off)
4 + 4[CME] = 8 energy, Mariruri used Knock Off
-> RNG roll to crit (1-625 to crit) -> 9246 (no crit)
(7[BAP] + 4.5[Stat Dif.]) * 1.5[SE] = 17.25 damage, 7 + 4[CME] = 11 energy
Cyric used Sludge Wave
-> RNG roll for full paralysis (1-1500 for full paralysis) -> 3775 (success)
-> RNG roll to crit (1-625 to crit) -> 8749 (no crit)
-> RNG roll to poison (1-1000 to poison) -> 716 (no poison)
(10[BAP] + 3[STAB] + 5.5[Stat Dif.]) * 1.5[SE] = 27.75 damage, 6 energy, Mariruri woke up, Mariruri was poisoned (2 DPA)

Mariruri -> -2 HP due to PSN

Mariruri -> -33.5, rounded to 34 HP, -45 energy
Cyric -> -34.5, rounded to 35 HP, -12 energy

For what could possibly be the first time in the match, neither trainer switches! The Azumarill and the Mega Gengar stare each other down, and this match is rapidly approaching its conclusion! Cyric, hoping to survive a bit longer, lowers his head, and his Defense is boosted by two stages as he prepares something nasty for Mariruri! She doesn't seem to mind though, and abandons her original plan in favour of simply using Refresh to recover from her poison! However this leaves her wide open, and Cyric charges in with a Skull Bash + Skull Bash combination! Gengar isn't known for its physical attacks, but DAMN that hurt! Mariruri is shaky, but she hangs on to fight another day!

The end seems to be near for Cyric now; still paralyzed and needing to recover from his combination, he's a sitting duck! And Mariruri plans to take full advantage! She's charging forward at full speed, and she slams into Cyric with a powerful Waterfall! Will it be enough? It is! Cyric has been knocked out! The sides have been evened at two Pokemon apiece, but with all four Pokemon in somewhat dire straits, We could be seeing a conclusion to this match far sooner than you'd expect! Now, who will zarator send out to fight the weakened Mariruri?

zarator wastes no time choosing his next Pokemon, opting to go back to Mask the Kitsunoh! Mask still has a decent bit of health left, but with only 4 energy can he finish off Mariruri and stay alive himself?

Mariruri, however, doesn't plan on going down any time soon! Rather than going straight on the offensive she opts for an Endure! Mariruri braced herself, and suddenly Mask is going to be having an incredibly rough time finishing off Mariruri! However, he does get a perfect opportunity to regain some much needed energy, and he takes full advantage with a chill! Will that extra energy make the difference and allow Mask to come out ahead or will Mariruri take the round!

Before Mask has a chance to act, Mariruri dashes forward cloaked in water for a lightning-fast Aqua Jet! A solid hit, nothing fancy but it puts Mask dangerously close to being KOed! However, Mask still has some fight in him, and with his newfound energy restores he's able to strike back with an Iron Head! A strong STAB neutral hit, it would have been enough to finish the task, but of course Mariruri endured the blow!

Instead of trying to find a way to break the Endure, Mask just goes right back on the offensive, striking hard once again with a Meteor Mash! It's a powerful blow, but once again, even though Mask's Attack was raised, Mariruri endured the attack, and now she gets the chance to finish the job! She dashes forward and nails Mask with a Knock Off! It's super effective, and it's just enough! Mask is knocked out! Suddenly the challenger is just left with one Pokemon! But Registeel is going to be difficult to break, and is the healthiest of any of the Pokemon alive! And Mariruri is barely able to stand, not to mention Bariyaado is going to be asleep for the forseeable future! Can EM pull this off or will zarator's legendary Pokemon carry him to victory! zarator has already sent out Registeel for the final time; now to see what EM does in response!

Here we go again! Registeel and Mariruri stare each other down, the latter barely able to stay upright! Both Pokemon dash forward, Mariruri cloaked in water while Registeel takes advantage of his Light Metal ability to move far faster than he has any right to! Who will strike first? It's Mariruri! She smacks into Registeel with an Aqua Jet for a bit of damage, but then Registeel immediately retaliates with a Metal Claw, and with that Mariruri is knocked out, finally falling after an incredible effort! Now both trainers are down to one Pokemon, but Registeel is much healthier than Bariyaado, and Bariyaado will have to sleep for 3 actions before being able to act normally! As Elevator Music sends in Bariyaado the Mr. Mime for the final time, will zarator put this battle on lock, or does the leader have a way to come back from this?

To the best of my knowledge, an Attack Substitution only triggers if the opposing trainer explicitly orders a move, not if a move is ordered that then calls for that move to be used. If there is evidence to the contrary then feel free to let me know.

It's time for the final matchup! Bariyaado the Mr. Mime and zarator's Registeel duking it out with the badge on the line! Bariyaado is fast asleep to start us off, but that won't stop him! He's using Sleep Talk! What's he going to get, and will it protect him from the Registeel's onslaught? Oh my! It's a Barrier! Bariyaado's Defense rose by two stages, and more importantly all Physical attacks against Bariyaado for the rest of the action will be blocked! And the Barrier goes up just in the nick of time too, as Registeel charges in for an Iron Head that is blocked by the Barrier!

Registeel isn't going to give up that easily, however, and dashes right back in with surprising speed for a Metal Claw! It's a direct hit, and it's super effective to boot! However, with a solid Defense stat, Filter, and the Defense boost from the Barrier left over, Bariyaado took almost nothing from that! However, the Mr. Mime is getting dangerously low on energy, and so Bariyaado simply spends the round fast asleep!

Hoping to preserve both HP and energy, while Bariyaado is fast asleep he eschews the usual Sleep Talk tactics and instead uses Snore! It's not very effective, and does virtually nothing to the Registeel, but I suspect damage was never the goal here! And sure enough! Registeel flinched, preserving some precious HP for Bariyaado! However, he's still about to fall over from exhaustion, and he's at an HP disadvantage! Is there anything Elevator Music can do, or will zarator win the match and take the badge?

Action 1:
Bariyaado was fast asleep!
Bariyaado used Sleep Talk
-> RNG roll for move selection (1-2500=Barrier, 2501-5000=Iron Defense, 5001-7500=Swagger, 7501-10000=Teeter Dance) -> 2074 (Barrier)
3 energy, Bariyaado used Barrier -> 6 energy, Bariyaado's Defense raised by 2 stages, all Physical attacks against Bariyaado for the remainder of this action will do no damage
Registeel used Iron Head -> Blocked by Barrier, 5 energy

Action 2:
Registeel used Metal Claw
-> RNG roll to hit (1-9500 to hit) -> 5506 (hit)
-> RNG roll to crit (1-625 to crit) -> 1427 (no crit)
-> RNG roll to raise Attack (1-1000 to raise) -> 4995 (no raise)
(5[BAP] + 3[STAB] - 1.5[Stat Dif.] - 2[Filter] + 2[Everstone]) * 1.5[SE] - 4[Boost Dif.] = 5.75 damage, 3 energy
Bariyaado was fast asleep!

Action 3:
Bariyaado was fast asleep!
Bariyaado used Snore
-> RNG roll to crit (1-625 to crit) -> 5487 (no crit)
-> RNG roll to flinch (1-3000 to flinch) -> 727 (flinch)

Bariyaado -> -5.75, rounded to 6 HP, -12 energy
Registeel -> -1.667, rounded to 2 HP, -8 energy

GG probably

Mr. Mime: Chill ~ Fake Out ~ Chill

IF (a protective/evasive move is used) THEN (use Chill and push actions back)
IF (Registeel has a Substitute up when you would use Fake Out) THEN (use Chill)
IF (a damaging Steel-type combination is used when you would use Chill) THEN (use Teleport (Evasive) and push actions back)​

 

[zarator]

yeah, most likely.

Iron Head - Chill - Iron Head

Here we are, with what just might be the final round! Can Elevator Music extend this one more round, or will zarator clinch it here? The good news for the Gym Leader is that Bariyaado woke up, but unfortunately with such low energy he has no choice but to chill! Registeel takes the opportunity to charge forward and nail the Mr. Mime with an Iron Head! It's super effective, and even with all of Bariyaado's tankiness and Registeel's lack of offense, Bariyaado is still left dangerously close to being knocked out!

Hoping to preserve some HP, Bariyaado throws a Fake Out at Registeel! It's not very effective and does absolutely laughable damage, but there's no way that was what Elevator Music was aiming for with that move! And sure enough, the true purpose appears; Registeel flinched! Every little bit of damage helps, but will that actually be enough to keep Bariyaado in this?

With Bariyaado still somewhat low on energy, Elevator Music makes the call for him to chill once again! zarator has an opportunity to potentially finish it here; can he do it? Registeel is certainly going to try! The legendary Pokemon charges forward and slams into Bariyaado with one more Iron Head! Will the super effective attack be enough to finish the job? Bariyaado stumbles... He's having trouble standing... HE FALLS! IT'S OVER! Bariyaado has been knocked out! zarator wins! What an amazing match between two of ASB's best, but at the end of the day our challenger stands tall, and earns his Fairy Badge! This was one of those matches where both deserved to win, but at the end of the day only one could, and for today that one is zarator!

Congratulations zarator!
