Sorry about this round being late because of christmas day and all, but I hope my flavor makes up for this a bit.

Just when I thought that people were coming up with more creative arenas and leaving the ASB arena to gather dust, Galladiator and a lion that talks decide to pit their pokemon against each other here. *cough* *cough* OK, the ASB has gathered a bit of dust, and only half of the 50,000 seat arena is full, but this battle is primed and ready for action!

Talkinglion who isn’t actually a lion, but actually a pokemon trainer, sends out a Snorunt named Snowstorm whilst on the opposite side of the arena is Galladiator, which I assume is a mix between a Gallade and Gladiator. Anyway he sends out Gene the Archen; and now that both trainers have their pokemon deployed the battle can begin!

Gene swoops down and flies back up, with, uhhhhhh, gravel following him. While the audience marvels at this, the gravel pieces itself together like a jigsaw puzzle into a blade shape with a razor sharp edge of stone. This strikes the opposing Snorunt with incredible force and the pokemon lovingly nicknamed Snowstorm falls to the ground! But she then gets back up quickly and uses Frost Breath! That was super-effective but it must have had something more to it, I remember now, frost breath always crits!

Following up that massive display Gene looks to top it even! An AcroSmash combo does even more, half of Snowstorms HP even, but with a price (aka recoil). Snowstorm was just biding here time though, and uses an avalanche fueled with the need for vengeance. The sound of snow hitting the hard surface was heard for miles, and Gene is right in the thick of it, literally.

Galladiator makes no attempt to order and now I see why. Gene managed to dig himself out of the snow, but now he just needs a breather. He’s cooling down from the combo and just lying about, not even flying! And Snowstorm takes advantage and uses a Water Pulse. Creating an orb water on the tip of her head, she then blasts it at Gene for underwhelming damage considering that it’s super effective.

After action two Gene became a bit of a defeatist but his trainer will still hope he can come out on against a determined Snorunt. The battlefield is drenched from the melted snow and the leftover pulsed water, will either trainer take advantage next round?
