Round 6


The Gym Leader calls Formula back and sends out Nimbus the Cyclohm.

After that he calls Nimbus back and sends out Short Fuse the Electivire with Expert Belt. Short Fuse is Dogfish's signature pokemon and if you check the original battle for the Gym, you will see that Short Fuse jumped from a 34 moves movepool to a whooping 98 moves complete movepool, which shows how much training the Electivire endured the last year. I got tired just by seeing that.

Also...wondering why the Gym Leader sent out a pokemon and then switched? He tried to bait the challenger into switching so he orders last. That is a valid strategy when you don't have a pokemon with such a type advantage that it is capable, even when ordering first, of dealing great damage to an opponent that can't switch.

But I digress.

Short Fuse begins this round by attacking Cyclohm with a mighty Earthquake that, for the sake of irony, is slighty weakened by the sand. Behemoth counterattacks by using the eternal rain and her Life Orb to empower Surf.

On the second turn, the offensive continues for both sides, as Short Fuse attacks with Ice Punch, receiving a Weather Ball [Water] in return.

Finally, as the creative dudes they are, both players continue to just attack, as Short Fuse creates an Earthquake and Behemoth goes all out with Draco Meteor.

The Cyclohm is as good as gone, with low hp and low en. But it did its job and, in terms of total hp, the challenger is ahead. But as C$FP vs Rediamond has taught us, HP totals aren't a safe way to measure who is winning, so let's keep going!
