Pre-round

Round 4: And Then Oswald Knew how Cecil Felt

Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen! Jas has just sent out his second and last Pokemon - a Stantler named Oswald. But while Kain's paralysis may have Arcanite at a disadvantage, he still makes a nasty foe...anyway, let's get on with the round!

Oz starts out with the first of his Extrasensory spam in an attempt to take out his Heracross nemesis quickly. Kain tries to counter with a brick break, but his leg cramps up at the last minute and is unable to move! As Oswald continues with another Extrasensory, the insectoid dragoon manages to get his legs working again and gets in some Close Combat! Kain ends up at the breaking point when wrecked by the Stantler's final Extrasensory attack, and uses it against him with a Reversal at MAXIMUM power, reducing Oz's health to a third!

With this turn of events, it's possible Kain may end up taking down Oswald as well, although he's so badly weakened that he's likely to exhaust himself in the process. Can Jas get out of this predicament? Find out next week!

Calculations (These are using the new calculation methods dictated, so rounding doesn't occur until the final numbers)

End Round 4

Arcanite, you're up!
