Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first gym battle in the new poison gym. Today currently undefeated leader Engineer Pikachu will face his most serious challenger yet.

But first, the rules:

How do you like my new arena? I just had it constructed. Perhaps you'll be a challenger worthy of it. I can't say I've fought so many Ground-type Pokemon in one battle as of yet, but typing isn't everything, yes? I look forward to seeing you fight; it'll help my research, at any rate.

Kailu, come greet our challenger!

Naturally, after months of waiting, IAR finally got the opportunity to take on the Poison Gym...Naturally Engineer gave the welcome, but despite the type advantage, this was certainly not going to be an easy fight...

The poison leader begins the fight with his trusty frog, Kailu the Toxicroak. The challenger counters with one of the most feared Pokemon in the league, Utilitand. Can the many-armed menace pull off a win in a singles match? Engineer seems to think not, exploiting a hole in the substitutions to prevent two devestating earthquakes in exchange for taking two less devestating bulldozes. Combined with a Fake Out, the match is far closer than Engineer's type disadvantage would imply. Can he take the lead and push for victory? Stay tuned.

The poison leader switches to his faithful Tentacruel, Kurage, to better tank the hits ahead. His abilities are immediately put to the test, as the wrecking ball of pure destruction, Megawhal, is unleashed. Intent upon showing what it can do, and "poisoned," by the arena, the Collosoil unleashes a massive Earthquake that rocks the entire arena, doing unconfortably high damage to Kurage. The Tentacruel then resorts to the true weapon of an RP ref- Hax. Confused but not slowing, Megawhal runs his horn into his adversary, striking a critical hit with the blow! Engineer's bad luck continues as his Toxic attack misses completely! His poor luck continues as another Earthquake far outweighs his meager attempts to strike back. Can Engineer turn this around, or is he doomed already? Stay tuned to find out.

It looks as if both sides are back to their old tricks, with both Fidgit and Toxicroak reappearing. Toxicroak launches another suprise attack on Fidgit, depriving it of a vital action. Both sides then trade strong ground attacks of varying sorts until they are both considerably more worn than when they started.

I can't say your use of ellipses is pleasing. But then again, neither is this battle.

Also despite the horrible round that we had before I think we're still okay!

Seems quite unfortunate that the important matches are the ones I can never remember.

Regardless, this all goes according to a rather depressing plan...

Engineer has a plan, but it is bested by his lack of Liquid Ooze in this battle, in favor of Clear Body. While the jellyfish tries to brace itself, it is soon overwhelmed by a trap of sand cast by the earth narwhal. This leaves the gym leader down 3-2 in an increasingly desperate situation.

Colossoil criticizes the Venusaur on being a bit late to the party, and highly ugly to boot. Venusaur's scent, seing how she's based on a quite fragrant flower, is also brought up. In sheer rage, Tanka summons a handful of vines that strike at the incredibly heavy Megawhal, subjecting it to incredible damage for such an attack. Colossoil then proceeds to maneuver below the earth, surfacing twice as the Venusaur steams with rage, and then flails blindly.
