Looking for a quick battle:
Open Challange
2 vs 2 doubles
1 Day DQ, 2 Day for Ref
no recovers, 5 chills

No fully evolved pokes please, mid-evos are ok
Arena:
Just on the shore of the Lake Valor. There is plenty of water provided by the lake and soft ground perfect for digging. Azelf may make an appearance and may decide to attack with psychic or any other attack it has in its arsenal.
I'll take that one.

Switch = impossible
1 Ability
No items

just a reminder, rewindman is the seeker

[rewindman]

Let's go, Hyperion and Tangle!

EDIT: Oh right, actions too, do'h.

Slica, I don't want any funny business going on so you should start with a Taunt on that there Tangle. Then just dish out the hurt with and Ice Punch followed by an Aerial Ace, both once again aimed at Tangle.

Staba, Your priority is to lay the hurt on Hyperion. Go with a Drill Run, then Bulldoze it, then go for another Drill Run. Let's hope you don't get flinch-haxed too often.

Summary
Slica: Taunt (Tangle) > Ice Punch (Tangle) > Aerial Ace (Tangle)
Staba: Drill Run (Hyperion) > Bulldoze (Hyperion) > Drill Run (Hyperion)

[rewindman]

I forgot abilities!
Tangle has Contrary while Hyperion has its regular Clear Body!

hmm, this looks like an interesting battle, let's get rid of them one at a time! since we can hit that rhydon for two super effective hits, lets do that.

Tangle, start off by enabling your Contrary ability. Since it is an enabled ability, and you were just sent out, i don't have to forfeit an action or the turn advantage! I will be enabling this ability for the rest of the match.

Start of with a Leaf Storm against Staba, allowing you to get a very juicy special attack boost! Follow up with a Giga Drain against Staba again, allowing you to heal off health from that ice punch. Finish it off with one last Leaf Storm, once gain increasing your special and making the rock/ground time with he hadn't messed with a grass type!

Hyperion, it's time to have some fun! Lead with an Iron Head, dealing some nice damage to that rhyno! follow it up with an Iron Defense, may as well boost some to take hits better. Follow it up with another Iron Head!
Of course, if any opponent happens to faint, just target the other one!

Summary:
Tangle: Leaf Storm (Staby) - Giga Drain (Staby) - Leaf Storm (Staby)
Hyperion: Iron head (Staby) - Iron Defense - Iron Head (Staby)

Thought that I'd bump this just in case the ref forgot about it

Each trainer has sent out their Pokemon, and the battle is beginning! Slica the Sneasel starts this match off with a Taunt at Tangle the Servine. Tangle starts off with a very powerful move, Leaf Storm, at Staba the Rhyhorn for massive damage, more than I have ever seen in a single move! Hyperion the Beldum also attacks Staba, with an Iron Head. Staba fights back at Hyperion with a Drill Run for some good damage. Slica uses Aerial Ace on Tangle to start the second round of moves. Tangle is still attacking Staba, with a Giga Drain to heal a bit. Hyperion uses Iron Defense to help absorb damage. Staba Bulldozes Hyperion, and its Iron Defenses caused some recoil. Slica is still trying to deal some damage to Tangle, using Ice Punch. Tangle once again uses Leaf Storm, easily enough to KO Staba. This is a very quick KO, but Slica is untouched! I seemed to have spoke too soon, Hyperion is using Iron Head for some good damage. Let's look at how things are going:

Deadfox's actions.

[rewindman]

Quick question, I activated tangle's contrary ability last round, so shouldn't she have +3 special attack instead of -3?

[deadfox081]

Okey dokey, double grass weaknesses are less than cool.

Slica, I guess we can just try our best to get you a KO. Keep on Ice Punching Tangle.

Slica: Ice Punch (Tangle)*3

[C$FP]

You're right, rewindman. I will try to make the changes tonight, but I might not be able to.

[rewindman]

It's allright, take your time. I may as well post actions since im here,
Hyperion, I want you to spam Iron Head 3 times at Slica, time to rack up damage! Tangle, use Hidden Power Fire agasint Silca, followed by another Leaf Storm, and finish it with a Hidden Power fire

Hyperion: Iron Head x3
Tangle: Hidden Power Fire - Leaf Storm - Hidden Power Fire

[C$FP]

I just want to point out that after making the changes to last round (factoring in Tangle's Contrary), I calculated that Tangle's second Leaf Storm did 48 damage, over-killing Staba by 40. Just think about that.

Slica is starting this second round, already with his teammate KOed. Slica uses Ice Punch at Tangle, who responds by releasing her inner Hidden Power, which appears to be Fire. Slow as it is, Hyperion uses an Iron Head on Slica, who already seems to be getting worn out. Slica, persevering through, uses another Ice Punch at Tangle. Slica once again uses her classic Leaf Storm, boosting herself even more. Hyperion can see that Slica can hardly stand, and charges with another Iron Head. From this collision, it appears that Slica is knocked out.

Nice match everbody, rewindman wins and deadfox081 loses. Just a bit of advice for both of you in the future (especially rewindman), you should probably do calculations yourself before posting your actions: Hyperion did not need to attack Staba at all, it was just unnecessary. Anyway, claims:

rewindman and deadfox081 each get 2 TC;
Tangle, Hyperion, Staba, and Slica each get 1 EC, 2 MC, and 1 DC (except Tangle gets no DC);
Tangle and Hyperion each get 1 KOC;
C$FP gets 4 RC.

[rewindman]

Thanks for subreffing on such short notice C$FP, and thanks to deadfox for the game!

[deadfox081]

GG rewind, just a really bad match up for me with the grass type vs my bugger all speed ground/rock.

Also cheers for stepping in C$, but you made some slight errors in the calcs. The stage boosts from Contrary Leaf Storms are added in after the base damage and what not, and not multiplied by type effectiveness. It wouldn't have made any difference but could be important for the future.

[C$FP]

Oh, I didn't realize that. Thank you!
