Sorry to hold up the battle but shouldn't Dogfish send out first because he's the match seeker.

Darkbone the Noface I coose you! (Ability: ummmmm I'm not sure. It's either levitate or levitate. I'll go with Levitate!)

Sub 15 HP - Meteor Mash - Metoer Mash
SUB: if taunt is used as Deino's first action. Then replace my first two actions with Metoer Mash and Faint Attack combo.

I'm making the assumtion that 1 v 1's are treated as Switch = KO here.

So then, let's be evil ^-^

Hustle is NOT ACTIVATED. J/S

Substitute (20 HP) ~ Roar ~ Taunt

This should leave us in a nice desirable position for the next round.

As the skeletons below begin playing a most pleasant tune, the two battlers send out their chosen Pokemon for the battle. Dogfish goes with a fierce female Deino known as Teresa, while Metal Bagon sends out Darkbone the Nohface.
The action kicks off... uneventfully. Both pokemon, perhaps feeling the need for companionship in this foreboding place (though Darkbone seems somwhat at home), decide to siphon off some of their own life force to create a cuddly substitute each.
Nohface, evidently displeased with his opponent's similar tactics angrily Meteor Mashes at the Deino Doll but to no avail; the shaking arena sends his attack off course. Regardless, the protective Teresa unleashes a mighty threatening Roar. The roar is so loud and terrifying that, though Nohface has no choice but to stay, his newly made companion simply gets up and walks off. The orchestra also seems annoyed that the roar has interrupted their music, and the drummer mutters something about not being able to keep time with that racket.
Deino sees the pain this has caused and feels quite satisfied, but not complete, adding insult to... well, the point is she Taunts Nohface. In a rage, Darkbone once again does the Monster Meteor Mash, damaging Deino's doll into delightfully detrimental disrepair.
The skeletal orchestra seemlessly segues into a different piece of music.

Round 1 Standings

Nohface have too much HP.

Regardless, this shouldn't prove difficult to play now.

Fire Fang! Earth Power! Fire Fang!

Haha I have the ability Levitate, free action for me!

Shadow Sneak - Meteor Mash & Faint Attack combo - Combo cooldown.

Also last round I think you forgot to add STAB to my Metoer Mash, therefore it should do 15 damage, not 12 and break the sub. Heres my calcs:

10 (BAP) + 3 (STAB) + (2 (stat diffence) x1.5) + 0 (crit fails) x 1.00 (effectiveness) = 15.

Anyway because of the I'll have a sub: If Deino's sub is in fact broken than replace shadow sneak with shadow strike.

Regardless, my actions won't change.

Meteor Mash has 10 base power +1 because of the stage's effect. 11+3+3=17. The Sub had 20 HP, now has 3. You actually did 2 more damage than you thought you should. :P

Nohface gets in a speedy Shadow Sneak to finish of Deino's sub. Meanwhile Teresa, done with non-attacking moves decides to go all-out, beginning with a vicious Fire Fang and following shortly after with death from below - Earth Power! The skeletons do not seem appreciative of this, but Darkbone seems determined and crafts a punishing combination of Faint Attack and Meteor Mash. As he cools down, Deino continues her relentless assault with another Fire Fang.
The action hotting up, the skeletons begin playing something a little more fitting.

Fun fact: The second Fire Fang flinched you.

Round 2 Standings

edit: not so infallible me remembered to account for the stages effect on physical attacks but only on darkbones moves. Edited to reflect extra damage dealt and energy lost by Deino.

Now if we're all done doubting my compelte and utter flawlessness, I'm done updating; you may now post actions.

But actually I like that you check for errors, it's important to make sure the refs are on the ball.

Could you please post your calcs for the round at the end each post it would be a real help thanks.

Anyway Darkbone start off with 20 HP sub to take the fire fang, earth power shouldn't do too much damage to you unless it crits. Because fire fang is just sooo unoriganal use yawn to make that deino go to sleep, finish off with a meteor mash use deino's harsh words against him!

Deino continues his assault without hesitation, getting in another Earth Power and Fire Fang. Nohface basically just sits there and takes it, glaring angrily. His trainer has ordered him to use non-attacking moves, but in his taunted rage the poor ghost finds himself unable and does nothing instead. It is not until Teresa Taunts him once again ("lol can't even fight back") that Darkbone actually does something, Meteor Mashing the infuriating dragon.
The skeletons, sensing the end draw near, change their tune once again.
Round 3 Standings

Meteor mash does 17 damage.
Fire Fang does 12, Earth Power 11.25

Sorry to be so padantic but earth power should have hit me directly and fire should have hit my sub. As such my HP should be 29 and I should still have 8 HP on my sub.

EDIT: Dang that anyway no-one said anything about dig being banned. Evasive Dig + Shdow Sneak combo - stay underground while cooling down from combo - come up at the very end of the round and use Meteor Mash.

Intended effect of the combo: Shadow Sneak simply gives prioity to evasive dig.

If my combo in invalid please allow me to change my actions.

EDIT2: Completly scrap my previous actions to avoid confusion.

First up use evasive dig (no combo) - next stay underground, as I'm not in a combo I have every right to make that command - and finally dig out of the ground to do damage to Deino.

...You were still under the effects of taunt at the time you tried to make a substitute, which caused the move to fail.

I'm gonna request that the combo be clarified on legality. I believe the jist of it is "Combine an evasive Dig and a Shadowstrike to get underground immediately with no damage dealt to target" followwed by "Stay underground whilst recovering from the combo move" and finishing up with "Meteor Mash, emerging from the ground"

I'm questioning the legality of that one tbh.

Metal Bagon the combo is kind of plausible in itself but the way you're using it I think illegal. Staying underground is an action that costs energy, but you can't perform ANY actions during the cooldown period. Secondly, do you mean to come up during the same action as you use Meteor Mash? This is also illegal.

Can you repost your actions clearly and let LJ tell me if it'll work then?

You are not allowed to stay underground. It won't work because you can not use actions of any sort during the cooldown period.
The super fast digging is dubious at best to begin with. :/
