(Gym) [FLYING] jas61292 vs. Glacier Knight

[Texas Cloverleaf]

Welcome one and all to the continuing escapades of the Flaying Gym and its leader, jas61292! Jas has been a popular target for challengers, being aong the most challenged gym leaders, many of these battlers walking away with the badge. Jas is no slouch, however, with convincing wins against users such as waterwarrior and a strong team to back him up. In particular, his Tomohawk, Salamence and Honchkrow are always devastating towards his opponent. His choices of Ledian and Unfezant are unconventional, and perhaps ill-advised, but while his Swanna is rather hit and miss, his Gliscor is sure to develop into a top Gym pokemon.

Today Jas faces off against noted flavour guru and Ice Pokemon fanatic Glacier Knight, who predictably brought along a contingent of mostly Ice type Pokemon. Will the challenger clip the gym leaders wings and walk away with his first badge? Or will the gym leader use the favourable conditions to his advantage to soar above the chilly conditions and dash his opponents hopes of victory? Let's find out!

Arena

---

A few miles off the coast of land a large pillar sticks out of the ocean. It reaches up into the clouds, the top blocked from view when the sky is not clear. Atop the pillar lies a square battlefield, traditional in almost every sense. However, a few important differences set this place apart from your standard Pokemon arena.

First of all, the pillar itself is hollow and filled with water, that creates a pool at the fields center, giving combatants a water source other than the sea miles below. Secondly, the field itself is exceptionally thin, and as such all Pokemon who attempt to bury through it will plummet to their demise if they cannot keep themselves aloft. Finally, at each corner of the field are pillars with what appear to be nest-like structures at the top. These features allow sky based Pokemon to rest their wings more easily.

But what is even more important than the physical features of the arena are the natural effects of the location. Due to its location above the tropical seas and the directness of the sun's rays, hail turns to rain before it ever reaches the ground. Additionally, a lack of sand makes summoning a sandstorm impossible.

However, the most prominent feature of the gym is the wind. At this high altitude, strong winds are nearly a constant. The prevailing air currents bring big gusts in from the west on a regular basis, from right behind where the gym leader stands. This provides a constant effect similar to a Tailwind at one third of normal strength for the gym leader's Pokemon. In addition, the strong winds also amplify moves that use their effects, boosting their power and their accuracy as.

Summary:
No Sandstorm or Hail
The thin battle platform prevents Dig.
Well technically using Dig will just cause the digging Pokemon to plummet thousands of feet into the water below, putting them out of bounds and knocking them out of the battle.
Flying and Levitating Pokemon who won't fall can still use Dig, but it won't actually do anything.
Seriously though, this is the flying gym. Why would you be using Dig anyways?
All other attacks are allowed.
Energy Cost of Roost reduced by 1.
Permanent Tailwind-like effect on Gym Leaders side (provides 1.33x speed boost)
Wind Based attacks have their base accuracy increased by 10% up to a maximum of 100%
Wind Based attacks have base power increased by 2
Wind based moves include the following: Hurricane, Razor Wind, Gust, Twister, Air Slash, Ominous Wind, Silver Wind, Heat Wave, Icy Wind (There may be others that I am forgetting)
Changes to the accuracy of attacks due to the wind are factored in before any other effects, such as stage boosts to accuracy or evasion.
All effects, including the power boost to wind moves and the Tailwind effect, are arena effects, not weather effects, and thus can not be negated by Cloud Nine, Air Lock or other such effects.

Now that we know the rules of engagement, let's take a look at the teams each of these trainers have brought with them.

Mr. Mime

Mr. Mime [Angela Petrelli] (Female) (OT: Espy Owner)
Nature: Bold: (+1 Defense, -1 Attack)
Type: Psychic
Psychic: Psychic STAB; less susceptible to blinding, more susceptible to sound-based assaults as far as locking on with Psychic attacks, can lift and throw opponents with Psychic regardless of Special Attack Rank. Psychic-type attacks are not godlike and cannot be used as a catchall for Disabling, Binding, and redirecting opposing attacks.


Abilities:

Soundproof:
Type: Innate
Pokemon with this ability emit their own powerful electrostatic or sound-dampening field, making them immune to sound-based moves other than an ally's or their own Heal Bell. (Known sound moves: Bug Buzz, Chatter, Echoed Voice, Grasswhistle, Growl, Heal Bell, Hyper Voice, Metal Sound, Perish Song, Relic Song, Roar, Round, Screech, Sing, Snarl, Snore, Supersonic, Uproar.)

Filter:
Type: Innate
This Pokemon has a special energy barrier that reduces the Base Attack Power of any opponent’s super effective attack by two (2).

Technician (DW):
Type: Innate
This Pokemon is more skilled at performing weaker moves, causing any of their attacks that normally have 6 or less Base Attack Power to have their Base Attack Power multiplied by 1.5. (e.g. Aerial Ace goes from 6 to 9, Mach Punch goes from 4 to 6, etc.) The Energy Cost for a one-hit or two-hit attack is increased by one (1). Each hit in a multi-hit move is boosted by one (1) Base Attack Power, and the Energy Cost for multi-hit attacks is increased by two (2). Because Technician is a multiplier on single hit moves, its effect is applied to Base Attack Power before any additive effects. Technician only applies to combos in the rare case that an initial hit will have 6 or less BAP.

What strong teams they have! With that out of the way the only formality that remains is the distinction of turn order, which will be determined by the toss of a Canadian Penny.
Heads=jas; Tails=glacier


Jas sends out his first two Pokemon!
Glacier sends out and orders!
Jas orders!

[jas61292]

Ledian and Swanna. Lets go.

[Glacier Knight]

"Defeat is a distinctly bitter flavor. Unfortunately, my gym challenge has left me twice tasting this horrid meal. But, I am back. My pokemon are stronger, and so is my will. Third time's the charm, is it not? Good luck to you, Gym Leader Jas, and I hope we have a good battle!"


Sending out two of my trusty companions, Reginald the Krilowatt and Kelvin the Syclant

Reginald: Thunder (Swanna)~Thunderbolt (Swanna)~Thunder (Swanna)
-If Swanna uses a Damaging Evasive, Use Protect (Syclant) that action, but not in a row
-If Swanna uses a protective/evasive, use Thunderbolt (Ledian) that action


Kelvin: Rock Slide x3
-If Ledian uses Light Screen a1, taunt (Ledian) that action
-Use Icy Wind A1 if Swanna does not have a substitute up AND is not in the invulnerable stage of a damaging evasive

Kelvin's first sub takes priority over the second

[jas61292]

That Icy Wind sub is annoying. But doing a shit ton of damage to Kril is good enough.


Swanna: Fly (Krilowatt) - Protect - Hidden Power Ground (Krillowatt)
Ledian: Bide - Hold - Release

[Texas Cloverleaf]

Recommending a subref as I do not believe I have the time to consistently ref this punctually at this point

[jas61292]

Swanna: Hidden Power Ground 7 (Krilowatt) - Hurricane (Syclant) - Brave Bird (Syclant)
If Krilowatt uses a protective move action 1, Hurricane Syclant and push back.
If Syclant uses Brick Break action 3, Fly (Syclant) that action

Ledian: Acrobatics (Syclant) - Light Screen - Acrobatics (Syclant)
If Krilowatt uses Ice Shard on you action 1, Endure and push back
If Swanna hits with Hidden Power and Krilowatt is not KOd, use Silver Wind that action.

[Glacier Knight]

Krilowatt: Volt Switch +Aqua Jet Ledian ~Cooldown (Thunderbolt Swanna)~Thunderbolt Swanna

Syclant: Ice Shard Ledian~Electroweb Swanna~Counter+Counter Swanna

Ok so i discussed Volt Switch+Aqua Jet on IRC. Even though its special, in-game the graphics of Volt-Switch make it look like the pokemon makes contact. The way i see the combo working is that Krilowatt is using aqua jet to propel himself into Ledian, and Volt Switch is used in the Krilowatt is releasing the electricity from its body into the concentrated aqua jet, and it intensifies. Basically Krilowatt is an Electrified pulsing jet of watery/shocky doom. And since Krilowatt is Electric/Water, the combo should be fine to use. Makes sense.

If the combo won't cut it, i'd like to reorder please.

After a lengthy delay we return to this match to find each trainers final two Pokemon squaring off, Jas' trusty Tomohawk and Honchkrow against Glacier's faithful Weavile and Mr. Mime. Weavile quickly starts out by Protecting against any incoming attacks, which prove useful as Tomohawk fires off an Aura Sphere which is absorbed by the shield. Honchkrow moves ahead to slash Mr. Mime with a darkness imbued force, while the Psychic Pokemon swaps its Soundproof skill for Tomohawk's Prankster.

Jas' Pokemon then appear to being biding their energy as Glacier goes after the Tomohawk, hitting it with an Ice Punch and Psychic form Weavile and Tomohawk respectively. Having waited patiently Jas' Birds go Ham on Weavile, Tomohawk unleashing a devastating Aura Blast combination that decimates the Ice/Dark Pokemon, with Honchkrow quickly following up with a Super Wing Power to KO the bedazzled Weavile.

Both Pokemon then take a breather from their exertions while Mr. Mime soldiers on, zapping Tomohawk with a thundery bolt of lightning.
