Town Square
This battle requires spectator involvement
The battle takes place in the town square, an open air arena with a fountain in the middle for a water source and solid ground for digging and seismic moves. However, the town is currently having to deal with a mafia that has set itself up and is terrorising the townspeople. They have recently adopted a method of voting for people to die and, during this battle, will be doing something similar.
This is where spectators come in. Every round, after both battlers have given orders, spectators have 24 hours to vote for one pokemon to take damage. They can do this by posting Lynch <Pokemon> where <Pokemon> is either the nickname or species of the pokemon being voted for. After 24 hours, whichever pokemon has the most votes takes 3 damage per vote. In the event of a tie, both pokemon take damage.
Type: Rock Rock: Rock STAB; Take 2 less damage from all special attacks during Sandstorm. Able to use Sand Tomb without losing focus.
Abilities: Levitate: (Innate) This Pokemon naturally floats above the earth when released or easily takes flight, evading Ground moves like Earthquake, Level Ground, and Magnitude. Other Ground moves can still hit. Technician: (Innate) This Pokemon is more skilled at performing weaker moves, causing any of their attacks that normally deal 6 or below base damage to have their base damage multiplied by 1.5. (e.g. Aerial Ace goes from 6 to 9, Mach Punch goes from 4 to 6, etc.) The Energy Cost for a one-hit or two-hit attack is increased by one (1). Each hit in a multi-hit move is boosted by one (1) damage, and the Energy Cost for multi-hit attacks is increased by two (2). Mold Breaker (Unlocked): (Innate) Whenever this Pokemon attacks, it emits an invisible, blindingly quick pulse preceding the attack that disables the opponents natural abilities (e.g. Levitators plummet towards the ground before Earthquake hits, Volt Absorb will not absorb electric attacks, Clear Body does not prevent stat-drops, etc.)
Type: Rock
Rock STAB; Take 2 less damage from all special attacks during Sandstorm. Able to use Sand Tomb without losing focus.
Abilities: Mold Breaker: (Innate) Whenever this Pokemon attacks, it emits an invisible, blindingly quick pulse preceding the attack that disables the opponents natural abilities (e.g. Levitators plummet towards the ground before Earthquake hits, Volt Absorb will not absorb electric attacks, Clear Body does not prevent stat-drops, etc.) Sheer Force (Unlocked): (Can be Enabled) This Pokemon can energize all its attacks with secondary effect chances less than 100%.

Dry Skin: (Innate) This Pokemon has spongy, yet sensitive skin, causing it to burn in bright sunlight for damage but absorb water and heal damaged tissues in rain. This effect results in dealing 2 damage/action to this Pokemon in sunlight and recovering 2 HP/action in rain.

The Pokemon absorbs the damage of water attacks and recovers 25% of HP the damage that would have been inflicted. Poison Touch (LOCKED): (Can be Disabled) This Pokemon's body is covered with a film of poison. Whenever it hits an opponent with a contact attack, that opponent has a 30% chance of being Poisoned. When disabled, all of this Pokemon's attacks that inflict regular poison will inflict Toxic poison (with the same chance of effect).

Levitate: The Pokemon hovers above the ground, avoiding all Bulldoze, Earthquake, Fissure, and Magnitude for three (3) actions. Earth Power's effectiveness is reduced by 3 BAP.

Abilities:
Guts: (Innate) This Pokemon is tenacious and will work ever harder when under a status condition, raising the Base Attack Power of all its physical attacks by two (2). Pokemon with Guts ignore the attack drop from burn.

This is going to be a tough first match for some of you, but we can probably maybe kind of pull through!
No-one smashes floating rocks like Gaston! http://veekun.com/dex/media/pokemon/...k-white/68.png
All right Gaston, start by setting up a Light Screen, then follow up with a Substitute (25), and finish up with a DynamicPunch.
The first time he uses Stealth Rock, use Magic Coat on that action and push remaining actions back.
If he does not use Stealth Rock but he does use Protect on action 3, change action 3 to Focus Energy.

Alright, Senpo, you're going to have to take a hit.
Start off with a Volt Switch; we don't want to stay in any longer than we have to. Then, hope for a Attack drop and just attack.
