Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Buck starts off the round with an Ice Punch aimed at Azurill, which hits critically! Azurill manages to shake it off, though, and uses a Body Slam attack on Buck! He's slow to recover--looks like that blow paralyzed him!
Azurill makes the most of the lull in the battle, firing off another Body Slam! Rather than retaliate with what could be a knockout blow, however, Buck takes time to Recover some health! Was that a wise move? Time will tell...
Azurill hits with one final Body Slam, sending Buck reeling! He regains his senses, though, and decides to chill to get some energy back! As he does, his fists thaw out! He sure looks glad to regain full feeling in his fists again!
Both combatants appear winded; what will happen next? Stay tuned...

Azurill Ice Beams Buck again, trying to freeze his fists one more time! But it looks like Buck's learned from last time: he quickly hides his hands (appendages or whatever) behind his back, taking the full force of the blow with his chest, but protecting his newly thawed fists! Now he's been ordered to Brick Break Azurill one more time for the KO, but will the paralysis stop him from moving?

The paralysis has no effect, and Buck easily smashes the unnamed Azurill to kingdom come! That was truly a nail-biter!

So Puffins sends out his Pichu to seal the deal! Pika starts staring Nastily at Gible. He seems to be Plotting something, but what exactly? I'll have my Gallade use Psychic to try and find out exactly what's going through that furry little mind...let's see...a fire pit?...and...hmm...wait! Is that...mahi mahi? Oh dear...umm...well, that's...disturbing. At any rate, Pika's Special Attack seems to have gone up a good deal! Meanwhile, Gible, completely oblivious to the inner workings of Pika's mind, is nonetheless enraged at...something...and lets loose a vicious Earthquake! That'll teach Pika to dream about making mahi mahi out of Gible!
Now Gible's trying to Dig his way underground to avoid an oncoming attack! But Pika's too fast, and manages to hit with a Hidden Power Water before the shark makes it underground!
HP Water 5? Seriously? Why not HP Ice 7? Odd...
Pika tries another HP Water, but this time he can't hit Gible! Instead, he finds himself uprooted by a Dig attack! This shark isn't going to be caught too easily, and it looks like Pika will have to rethink his dinner plans!

Pika's Nasty Plot: Pika's Special Attack is raised two stages. Pika expends 7 Energy.
So Pika starts what will be the last round with another HP Water! Gible isn't fazed by the Pichu's attack, and seals the win with another Earthquake! ...Well, er, maybe not, as Pika lives with 2 HP left! Desperately, he tries another HP Water, but a second Earthquake from the land shark puts the Pichu to bed for good!
