I'll challenge Orcinus Duo's fire gym, since my match with Lou is clearly never getting updated or move forward in any way.

Flareon Training Grounds
Arena: Flareon Training Grounds
Long ago, Cinnabar Island was a technological mecca, a hub for the brightest minds of a generation. But a volcano erupted on the island, destroying everything there was, or ever will be. There isn’t anything here anymore, in “The Ravaged Town of the Past”…
But is there?
Finally, you reach the topmost layer of Cinnabar Island. Flashes of red dart past the corner of your eye. You turn, but see nothing. The once-charred ground stares resolutely back at you, covered by a hair of swaying grass. Another flash. Turn again, but this time, the emptiness seems to be watching you. The sun is shining brightly, but through a thin veil of steam, which the sun evaporated from the surrounding ocean. A drop of your sweat falls, caught by an outstretched blade of grass that lowers it gently to the ground. The ground here is hard, very hard. What kinds of vegetation are these?
A flash, a turn, a howl, and then you flinch. But then, in the distance, you see the rough, chalked outline of the arena. Determined, you walk to it, and release your Pokemon. The sun shines mercilessly, the steam chokes, and you have a mission to fulfil.
Welcome to the Flareon Training Grounds. After the eruption of the volcano, an elite society of Flareons have cultivated the land. Here, they practice skills that are not privy to the knowledge of the outside world. Flare blitzes right and left, the Flareon here are practically legends in their own right. Thankfully, it is not them who you will be fighting today, but Gym Leader orcinus, who grew up in Canada and hates the weather here as much as you. He’s befriended the Flareons here, and it is here that he learns from the skills of these skilled fighters to beat challengers like you.
There are some special rules here, so pay attention. Spread moves, for fear of invoking the wrath of the nearby Flareons, may not be used in their full capacity, as a safety rule set by orcinus. Instead, Earthquake, Rock Slide, Surf and the like must be focused and directed only at one Pokemon. However, while orcinus wants to obey safety rules, he does not want to disrupt the spirit of the game. And so, spread moves can still hit Pokemon that are using evasive actions, and can wipe out all of the clones of one Pokemon.
The arena is in a stage of permanent sun and steam, which is from the nearby water. This acts as sun in every respect (including the including the BAP reduction of water-typed moves, since the sun evaporates much of the water and steam doesn’t actually hurt), but one—it heals dry skin Pokemon instead of harming then.
The ground is extra hard here, and dig's priority is shifted by -2.
The Flareons have developed a hatred of Stealth Rocks. It would be wise not to irk them.
Finally, orcinus gets a fan and a cooler. You do not.
Summary: Attacking moves that affect more than one opponent must be targeted at one opponent. However, they can still hit Pokemon that are using evasive actions, and can wipe out clones from Double Team.
Permanent Sun/Steam is in effect, acting like Sun in every respect except healing Pokemon with the ability dry skin. This can only be changed by weather rock holders.
No Stealth Rock
Ya hallo thar spectators and Flareons! This is Frosty here melting on this lovely arena where the Fire Gym is finally being challenged!
Our Fire Gym Leader is Orcinus Duo. With no finished gym battles under his belt, he is still green, which is good as it makes it unpredictable, and bad, as the lack of experience may prove to be a hindrance. Orcinus is mostly known as a ref than as a battler, due to the frenzy reffing done a couples months ago to afford for his team. Now with the Gym and a good team, Orcinus has hanged his reffing gloves (maybe for good) and is now using his fighting gloves as a full-fledged Trainer!
Don't you dare understimate the Gym Leader's team for being "artificial", as it proved to be a strong and unpredictable team in the hands of a strong and unpredictable player. Pay close attention to Simion for being a very versatile pokemon that had a great role on his victory against C$FP.
On the other side of the arena we have Rickheg. Rickheg was picked up on the Dark Gym a couple hours ago with our lovely roflcopter as his battle probably won't end any time soon. Even though he doesn't have titles to speak off, it doesn't mean he is a bad player. Think that and you are in for a trouble, as Rickheg is a very competent trainer and every trainer has to begin getting his titles somewhere. Pay close attention to Cyclost, as its great stats and good disruptive/offensive movepool makes it rather dangerous for any opposing pokemon, regardless the typing.
But enough talking, let's get to the teams!

Sir Wattson the Krilowatt
http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/...ps922f90c2.gif
Krilowatt (Sir Wattson) M Nature: Timid (Timid (+15% Speed, +17% Accuracy, -1 Atk) Type: Electric/Water Electric: Electric STAB; 50% reduction in paralysis chance from other electrical attacks, perfect accuracy and 30% chance of Protect breaking Thunder during Rain. Superior senses in power plant environments. Water: Water STAB; Can breathe and have excellent mobility when underwater, are less capable on land unless they are entirely amphibious.
Abilities: Trace: (Can be Activated) This Pokemon can copy an ability of the opponent and replace Trace for six (6) actions. Wonder Guard cannot be Traced. Magic Guard: (Innate) This Pokemon is infused with a powerful psycho-electric energy that makes it immune to damage from Hail, Sandstorm, and damage from Leech Seed, Poisoning, and Burn. It can still attack itself in confusion, but will not absorb any damage from it. Shell Armor (DW): (Innate) This Pokemon’s thick, bony outer shell prevents it from taking critical hits.
Abilities: Levitate: (Trait) This Pokemon naturally floats above the earth when released or easily takes flight, evading the Ground moves Bulldoze, Earthquake, Fissure, and Magnitude. Earth Power will have three (3) less Base Attack Power. Dig and Dive can strike a Levitating Pokemon if their user is over Size Class 4, has Levitate, is 3.5m or larger, or is a Flying-type. Otherwise Dig and Dive will miss. Ground moves can still hit. Levitate Pokemon will retain the Levitate trait when they use Skill Swap on an enemy, and will steal the opponent's ability (the user can specify if they want a foe or ally to gain Levitate from a Skill Swap.) If a Pokemon with Levitate uses Role Play, they will copy the opponent's abilities and retain Levitate. 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 (DW): (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.)

Dusknoir [Cyclost] (M)
Nature: Quiet (Adds One (1) Rank to Special Attack; Divides Base Speed by 1.15 and gives a flat 10 point decrease in evasion, effectively adding 10 accuracy (e.g. 85 becomes 95) on an opponent’s attacks.

Type: Psychic/Fighting Psychic: Psychic STAB; less susceptible to blinding, more susceptible to sound-based assaults as far as locking on with Psychic attacks, can lift and throw opponents with Psychic attacks regardless of weight difference. Psychic-type attacks are not godlike and cannot be used as a catchall for Disabling, Binding, and redirecting opposing attacks. Fighting: Fighting STAB; ignore weight restrictions on Circle Throw, Seismic Toss, Sky Drop, Storm Throw, Submission, and Vital Throw. Superior reaction time in close quarters.
Abilities: Steadfast: (Innate) If this Pokemon is flinched, it becomes aware of the speed difference and increases Speed by one (1) stage to make up the difference. This Speed boost is maintained at the end of each round. Justified: (DW) (Innate) This Pokemon's body reacts to dark energy, invigorating its passions. When hit by a Dark-type move, the Pokemon's attack will increase one (1) stage. A boost gained this way by another Pokemon's attack will be maintained at the end of each round. Self-targeted attacks do not maintain boosts.

Simion: Fake Out Krillowatt-Solarbeam Krillowatt-Helping Hand Soul
Soul: Imprison (Psychic, Shadow Ball, Hex)-Energy Ball Krillowatt-Solarbeam Combo Krillowatt
The Gym Leader sent out his trusted Simion the Infernape with Expert Belt. As said earlier, Simion proved to be Orcinus's MVP in more than one occasion, so let's see what it can do for us.
Accompaning the monkey is Soul the Chandelure with Expert Belt. The ghost may not have Infernape's versatility, but it compensates with RAW POWER.
The Challenger sends out Cylost the Dusknoir with Reaper Cloth and Sir Wattson the Krillowatt with Leftovers to counter the Leader's team. Cylost has many tricks up his sleeve and may deal some damage. Sir Wattson has that lovely HP and type advantage to get some momentum, although, I may say, this godforsaken heat coupled with Krill's lack of punch may hinder a lot that advantage.
Anyway, let's get started!
Simion starts the round by Flinching Sir Wattson with Fake Out, stopping it from attacking. The same result is achieved by Soul as it Imprisons Psychic, Hex and Shadow Ball and disables Cylost from using Psychic. A good turn for the Gym Leader!
On the second turn both teams switch to attack mode. Sir Wattson attacks Simion with Scald, while the monkey counters with heat-boosted Solarbeam. Soul also attacks the shrimp with Energy Ball and Cyclost ends this turn with Earthquake focused at the Infernape.
Finally, Simion gives Soul a Helping Hand to fire an absurdly powerful attack! Cylost, in the other hand, unable to use Psychic, decides to improvise and Struggles to deal damage to Simion. And suffers from recoil. Some time later, Soul finishes charging its allmighty lazer and attacks with Solar Obliteration and KOes Sir Wattson!
One round is done and the Leader has a clear advantage. But don't count the challenger yet, as Chandelur will have to cooldown and he orders second, so we may still see some action going on.
