Battle in band class! TheWolfe vs. Gerard!

The reffing for the last round has now been corrected.




IT'S 1v1 NOW WHO WILL WIN!!!

Cicuta the Budew comes out of her Pokeball and stares at Hype Dog, her opponent who is starting to get tired. Hype Dog starts to make an attack, but Cicuta moves with surprising speed, and - wow?! She just launched some kind of red beam straight up, into the ceiling! Appearently the beam is for creating a Sunny Day, but the ceiling is blocking it! Hype Dog's been watching Cicuta, but now she's tired of waiting, and making a huge Uproar about it! So loud, I don't think anyone will be sleeping for a while.

It just keeps getting weirder, now both Pokemon are glowing white! Hyde Dog looks like she's just going to Bide his time, but Cicuta isn't idling, she's firing a MASSIVE Solarbeam that hits Hype Dog HARD. She's still glowing white, but looking hurt pretty bad.

Cicuta doesn't look happy that Hype Dog is still standing, as she fires another Solarbeam, knocking Hype Dog back against the wall. Hype Dog is still glowing white, she's about to overflow with energy! Will Hype Dog take out Cicuta in a massive blow? Will Cicuta finish off the battle in her next move? Who will win this battle??? STAY TUNED AND FIND OUT!!!




TheWolfe, your turn to give your orders.

Whoa, that's a lot of damage for a super-effective Solarbeam! =o

The end of the line is coming close girl. Release that Bide and fire off two more Ice Beams. You did you best with the hand you've been dealt.

Bide (release) ~ Ice Beam x2

Hype Dog: ...wooof.... D:

Sorry, but i'm waiting a response concerning uproar, since if it's like i think it is, then you should be forced to use it like outrage (and bide wouldn't have happened at all)

PS: If i'm wrong I lose so i don't think my actions matter a lot

Ok, so i was right

Uproar: The Pokemon uses great blasts of sound while enraged to damage the opponent, preventing all Pokemon in the arena from sleeping until it dissipates. Uproar lasts for three (3) actions, and all Pokemon will wake up and be immune to Sleep while Uproar is being used. Uproar does not suffer from the consecutive attacks penalty. This move attacks an enemy Pokemon at random.

So the round should be re-ref since Uproar is actually gonna be used for 3 actions, making bide not happen at all :3

There was a big problem with that and the fact was when I ordered my Mudkip to use Uproar, the attack description much different. It was only an one-action attack that had prevented sleep for 6 actions. Unfortunately Uproar's description has been completely edited over and there are no old move archives so I cannot show Uproar's old attack description in quotes. However I do remember it had the following properties:

9 base power, 7 energy, prevents sleep for 6 actions.

If Uproar was a "thrashing" move along the lines of Outrage or Thrash, then I wouldn't have used it.

EDIT: Hmmm...maybe there is a way to know about the old move archives. Let me PM Deck Knight about this.

EDIT 2: Okay I got this from Deck Knight:

In the battle between Gerard and I, she and I are debating whether Uproar used in the match should be re-reffed to act as a 'thrashing' move like Outrage or Thrash or should be left the way it is.

The current description of the attack is follows:

Uproar: The Pokemon uses great blasts of sound while enraged to damage the opponent, preventing all Pokemon in the arena from sleeping until it dissipates. Uproar lasts for three (3) actions, and all Pokemon will wake up and be immune to Sleep while Uproar is being used. Uproar does not suffer from the consecutive attacks penalty. This move attacks an enemy Pokemon at random.

Attack Power: 9 | Accuracy: 100% | Energy Cost: 6 | Effect Chance: -- | Typing: Normal | Priority: 0

However, when I ordered Uproar on June 20th, it had a different attack description, most notably Uproar was a one turn attack and the sleep immunity effect was a separate after effect.

Is it possible to examine Uproar's attack description from that date and whether or not it should be treated as a "thrashing" move? It would be appreciated. Thanks. :]

I really wanted Uproar not to suck, but I had difficulty giving a reason for it not to have its in-game effect, or for that effect to not qualify. In addition Dusk already listed it with Thrash and Outrage, so there wasn't much I can do. If you want to have the trainers re-order that's fine, tell them you have my explicit authority. Sorry if it caused you grief.

Basically it is like Outrage and Thrash, save I reduced its Energy Cost and it can't be disrupted by a powerful attack like the 12 BAP versions.

With that being said, what do you two think Gerard and aura? I'd like to clarify this issue before we continue the match.

I talked with Deck Knight on IRC, and he said the same thing. The last round will be redone due to the unusual circumstances. Gerard, please reissue your orders.

Well I don't mind, I actually use the uproar substitution because i knew (thought) that it would make him use the same action and couldn't use Bide, still the same orders actually maintain, so:

Cicuta: Sunny Day - Sleep Powder - Solarbeam
*Use Solarbeam on second action if he uses uproar
*Use Sleep Powder on last action if it failed

Use Yawn yourself to respond to this new threat. Relax, and then end with an Ice Beam

Yawn ~ Chill ~ Ice Beam

Hype Dog: Arf!

IT'S 1v1 NOW WHO WILL WIN!!!

Cicuta the Budew comes out of her Pokeball and stares at Hype Dog, her opponent who is starting to get tired. Hype Dog starts to make an attack, but Cicuta moves with surprising speed, and - wow?! She just launched some kind of red beam straight up, into the ceiling! Appearently the beam is for creating a Sunny Day, but the ceiling is blocking it! Hype Dog looks bored from the fighting, as she lets out a big Yawn. Cicuta's getting a little drowsy, but she's not ready for a nap yet!

Now Cicuta is jumping around, she's spreading some green powder on Hype Dog! It's Sleep Powder! Hype Dog is trapped in intense sleep! With Hype Dog sleeping helpless, can Cicuta take advantage to win the match?

Cicuta's not taking it easy, as she starts glowing! Cicuta's shooting a massive Solarbeam into Hype Dog! Hype Dog has woken up after that powerful hit, and Cicuta is feeling drowsy; who will win?




TheWolfe, your turn to send in orders.

The show must go on!

Ice Beam ~ Scald ~ Ice Beam

Hype Dog: ....a-arf.

So you must be a little tired after those attacks, take a quick nap, and the minute you wake up begin spamming solarbeam, the ice beam should wake you, so you won't have to worry about oversleeping, this is almost done

Cicuta: Solarbeam - Solarbeam - Solarbeam

IS THIS THE END???

Hype Dog and Cicuta stare down each other, Hype Dog in pain, Cicuta exhausted. Cicuta goes for the initiative as it starts to glow, absorbing sunlight through the windows! Hype Dog isn't sitting still though, as she fires an Ice Beam straight into Cicuta! Cicuta is knocked back a little, and ice crystals are forming; Cicuta's torso has been frozen! Cicuta doesn't seem to care though, as she finishes her Solarbeam and watches it slam into Hype Dog for massive damage! Cicuta seems to be enjoying the sight, and finally settles down for a short nap.

Hype Dog sees the oppurtunity, and goes for a powerful Scald all over Cicuta! Cicuta's hurting from the burning water, although the ice crystals have melted, and Cicuta has waken up and ready for a fight!

Cicuta stares at the badly hurt Hype Dog, and begins absorbing more sunlight! Hype Dog launches a powerful Ice Beam! It hits! Cicuta hits with Solarbeam! Hype Dog is knocked out! Gerard wins!





TheWolfe and Gerard receive 2 TC.
All Pokemon receive 1 EC, 2 MC, and 1 DC.
All Pokemon except Roy the Torchic get 1 KOC.

gg both of you, thanks for letting me ref, good luck in the future!

Let's go Meliadoul! Let's finish this Bud of-

What? The battle's over already? Aw shucks. D:

Good match! Aura make the thread a completed battle (instead of an ongoing one).

Nicely done Cicuta

Nice battle, some really great pokes, and a nice opponent
