Let's get it on.

The Arena


Alright, i'm here at the Cinnibar Volcano and it is HOT! Seriously, it's pretty flippin' hot! I have no idea why someone would want to fight here, but it appears that two people are at it! Let's see how it goes!

Son of Shadoo, you are supposed to pm 3 pokemon if the match is 3v3 or lower.

Arcanite, next time send in 3 pokemon. *thumbs up*
Son_Of_Shadoo's Team

Son_Of_Shadoo gives actions
I attempt to ref, and fail horribly
Arcanite gives actions
Son_Of_Shadoo gives actions
I attempt to ref, and fail horribly

And on and on.

Mama, you're my best option here, methinks. Go, Mama (Larvitar)!

Arcanite May 1st, 2011 5:22:42 AM

Yeah, go Firion! Growlithe (Hasty).

Be Intimidating! Then, follow it up with howl, and then close combat!

Son_of_Shadoo May 1st, 2011 5:25:25 AM

Called it. Mama, give him a Screech to negate the Intimidate drop. Bulldoze as he Howls, see if you can force him towards the edge of the platform. Protect the Close Combat.

Screech >>> Bulldoze >>> Protect

Nightmare Jigglypuff May 2nd, 2011 4:06:19 PM

Round 1. The Round Where Not Much Happens.
 
Well, it currently seems that Mama has the advantage here, but Firion is faster and howls rather Intimidatingly, causing Mamas attack to drop. But now Mama is trying to be intimidating herself with a loud Screech, lowering Firion's defense. Firion, feeling like he needs to yell more, Howls, invigorated with the thrill of the (rather hot) hunt. Mama doesn't like the loud sounds though, and Bulldozes Firion. Firion then tries to Close Combat yo Mama, but Mama throws up a Protect just in time.

Mama the Larvitar


Firion the Growlithe

Son_of_Shadoo May 2nd, 2011 4:22:57 PM

Good job Mama, we'll have this done in no time.

Dragon Dance up. Then Bulldoze twice. Keep trying to push Firion towards the edge of the platform.

Dragon Dance >>> Bulldoze >>> Bulldoze

Arcanite May 2nd, 2011 5:21:54 PM

Ok Firion, go for a leer while he dances, then Follow it up with a close combat. Then, finish off with reversal!

(Note to Jigglypuff, would you mind posting your calculations? I am sure you will have done them right, but just for refrence)

Round 2, Now Complete With More Everything!
 
Mama the Larvitar


Firion the Growlithe


Firion begins the round by giving an angry look at Mama, probably having something to do with not caring for him enough during birth. Mama then prances around saying "Larvi larvi!" which when translated says "Neener neener!" raising Mama's hopes and attack (and speed.)

Firion, angered by this random and insulting move from Mama, uses Close Combat on Mama, hurting the poor larvitar quite a bit. Mama then decides to Bulldoze Firion even further to the ledge with her (ahem) wide girth. Firion, getting weaker and weaker, uses a desperate Reversal, hitting Mama with all he's got, but Mama continues to Bulldoze away at Firion.

Firion is getting pretty close to the edge, but due to Bulldoze being physical, Mama is fairly close too.

Firion the Growlithe


Mama the Larvitar


Calculations


Arcanite orders first, followed by Son_Of_Shadoo's actions.

Arcanite May 6th, 2011 2:33:30 PM

Ok, Firion, go for a Morning Sun, then follow it up with Close Combat, and Finishing off with reversal! Try to get around Larvitar, as That Lava is hot!

Son_of_Shadoo May 6th, 2011 4:29:41 PM

How does Firion have 68 HP at the beginning and end of the round? By my calculations, he should have 30... Misprint?

Er, irrelevant. Mama, be careful. We're near that lava... Brick Break, Bulldoze, then Protect against the Reversal.

Brick Break >>> Bulldoze >>> Protect

Arcanite May 7th, 2011 3:03:50 AM

That means reversal needs to be recalculated too.

Nightmare Jigglypuff May 9th, 2011 3:19:18 PM

Round 3. (This battle is incredibly hax free.)
 
Reversal was calculated correctly the first time. I just forgot to reduce Firion's HP.

Firion the Growlithe


Mama the Larvitar


Firion starts off by harnessing the power of the sun (which ironically, wasn't incredibly bright, just normal) by using Morning Sun, restoring 25 HP. While Mama was looking up at the sky, Firion was able to slip to the opposite side of Mama. Mama, rather ticked off that Firion would do such a thing, uses a good Brick Break on him. Firion then unleashed a Close Combat on Mama, showing no mercy on the poor larvitar.

Mama then tried to Bulldoze Firion to the other end of the stadium, and for the most part it worked. The bruise and battered Firion attacks Mama with a viscous Reversal, but Mama Protects herself with her (ahem again) large girth.

Son_of_Shadoo May 9th, 2011 4:40:57 PM

Still not out of the woods, Mama. Don't get cocky. Go for the Bulldoze, but if he uses Reversal, Protect it.

Bulldoze >>> Bulldoze >>> Bulldoze

Sub Protect if Firion uses Reversal.

Arcanite May 9th, 2011 4:49:58 PM

No, Go energy stall!

Reversal>reversal>Reversal

Jk (It won't work after next round.)

Close Combat>Close Combat>Close Combat

Firion's defence has let me down too much.(getting Will-o-wisp, and a changed nature)

Nightmare Jigglypuff May 10th, 2011 10:50:36 AM

Round 4, The Endgame. (Plus I'm A Horrible Ref.)
 
Firion the Growlithe


Mama the Larvitar


It all comes down to this. Firion, severely weakened by a number of Bulldozes, is struggling for consciousness, but Mama isn't looking so good either.

Firion desperately unleashes a Close Combat to finish Mama off. As Mama falls down and everything starts to fade, a voice calls out to her...


"Never give up! Trust your instincts!"


As light begins to filter back into Mama's eyes, she can see Firion, dancing a victory dance. Filled with the rage of a thousand angry mothers (plus peppy,) Mama gets back up and charges into Firion with massive strength, causing Firion to be knocked out and fall incredulously close to the lava.

"No!!" Arcanite cries out as he runs to his poor Growlithe and holds him in his arms. He then rushes to the nearest pokemon center to heal his pokemon.

Mama, thrilled at her victory, runs to her trainer to be hugged in a loving embrace.

(I smiled while imagining these scenes.)

Firion the Growlithe


Mama the Larvitar


Calculations


Arcanite and Son_Of_Shadoo get 2 TC. Firion gets an 1 EC, 2 MCs, and 1 DC, and Mama gets an 1 EC, 2 MCs, and 1 DC plus a KOC.

I get 2 RCs. (Although i shouldn't because i was a terrible ref.)

Arcanite May 10th, 2011 11:52:25 AM

Don't we get 2 MC?

Nightmare Jigglypuff May 10th, 2011 12:15:25 PM

Oh, yes you do.

Arcanite May 10th, 2011 12:20:07 PM

Thanks! Great Battle!

Son_of_Shadoo May 10th, 2011 12:52:20 PM

Woo! GG, Arcanite, you fought well. Even at the end, I didn't think we had it.
