Default A battle of the mighty (warstory)

One day a young Cheese & Chili walked up to an even younger billy and demanded a battle. Billy, being too proud to refuse, accepted the challenge and took out his trusty pokeballs.


Battle Log:
Battle Mode: Red/Blue/Yellow
Rule: Sleep Clause
Rule: Freeze Clause
Rule: Self-KO Clause
Rule: Apply PP Ups
Rule: Challenge Cup
Rule: Battle Timeout
Rule: Unrated
Cheese & Chili vs billy. Begin!
Cheese & Chili sent out Tentacool (Lv.79 Tentacool)!
billy sent out Growlithe (Lv.76 Growlithe)!

At the start it appears that Cheese & Chili had the upper hand, although, what happened next surprised even the most seasoned pokemoners.

Begin Turn #1
Tentacool used Bide!
---------------------------------
Growlithe used Substitute!
Growlithe made a Substitute!
---------------------------------
End of turn #1
Cheese & Chili's Tentacool: 218 HP
billy's Growlithe: 75% HP

Growlithe used swift to send a barrage of stars hurtling towards the biding tentacool. When tentacool released its energy, it failed to even hurt the growlithe, who was still sneakily hiding behind his substitute. Fearing the fire-breathing dog, Cheese & Chili decided to withdraw tentacool for an even cooler poke, in kabutops! Cheese thought that kabutops, being close to uber status, would resist swift and any fire attacks growlithe tried to throw at it!

Kabutops used double-edge to take the growlithe down to 40%. The growlithe, infuriated by this reckless normal-type move, went on a rage that, although got a critical hit, did not enough damage to shake the mighty kabutops. Then, kabutops went it for the kill!

Begin Turn #7
Kabutops used Double-Edge!
(39% damage)
A critical hit!
Kabutops is hit with recoil!
Growlithe fainted!
billy sent out Poliwag (Lv.80 Poliwag)!
---------------------------------
End of turn #7
Cheese & Chili's Kabutops: 142 HP
billy's Poliwag: 100% HP

"Ahhh," said kabutops, "an equally adept pokewarrior! I must flee to my beloved pokeball" So kabutops swapt for one of the sexiest pokemon to meet the earth, Parasex! I mean parasect! Whether it be superhuman prediction skills, or just plan luck, billy struck the parasect for a sickening blow.

Begin Turn #8
Cheese & Chili withdrew Kabutops!
Cheese & Chili sent out Parasect (Lv.73 Parasect)!
---------------------------------
Poliwag used Ice Beam!
(88 damage)
It's super effective!
---------------------------------
End of turn #8
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 130 HP
billy's Poliwag: 100% HP

How did he do that? Have i greatly underrated my opponent? This is not just some run of the mill brazilian I am versing here, this man has talent! Or does he....

Begin Turn #9
Poliwag used Surf!
(31 damage)
It's not very effective...
---------------------------------
Parasect used Mega Drain!
(47% damage)
It's super effective!
Poliwag had its energy drained!
---------------------------------
End of turn #9
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 151 HP
billy's Poliwag: 53% HP

Hmmm, unpredictable indeed. Parasex, not to be taken lightly, finished off the tadpole.

Begin Turn #10
Poliwag used Bubble!
(7 damage)
It's not very effective...
---------------------------------
Parasect used Mega Drain!
(52% damage)
It's super effective!
Poliwag had its energy drained!
---------------------------------
End of turn #10
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 200 HP
billy's Poliwag: 1% HP

Begin Turn #11
Poliwag used Ice Beam!
(82 damage)
It's super effective!
---------------------------------
Parasect used Mega Drain!
(1% damage)
It's super effective!
Poliwag had its energy drained!
Poliwag fainted!
billy sent out Rhyhorn (Lv.78 Rhyhorn)!
---------------------------------
End of turn #11
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 119 HP
billy's Rhyhorn: 100% HP

Rhyhorn? Is billy waving the white flag already? I know Parasex is awesome but shit man, show some resilience! Parasex finished off the rhyhorn like Jumpman16 finishing off the last of the Thanksgiving turkey. Then, one of the most versatile pokemon graced us with it's presence.

Begin Turn #13
Parasect used Mega Drain!
(14% damage)
It's super effective!
Rhyhorn had its energy drained!
Rhyhorn fainted!
billy sent out Mew (Lv.60 Mew)!
---------------------------------
End of turn #13
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 212 HP
billy's Mew: 100% HP

Mew prepared for a skull bash by lowering it's head, but got badly poisoned in doing so. Cheese thought the poison would wear down it's opponent no matter what it tried to do. Cheese congratulated his Parasex on a job well done, and withdrew him in change for Kabutops, to take the skull bash. This tactical move was followed by a bit of old-fashioned russian roullette.

Begin Turn #16
Mew used Horn Drill!
Mew's attack missed!
Mew is hurt by poison!
---------------------------------
Kabutops used Double-Edge!
(27% damage)
Kabutops is hit with recoil!
---------------------------------
End of turn #16
Cheese & Chili's Kabutops: 102 HP
billy's Mew: 55% HP (Psn)

Kabutops dodged a possibly fatal horn drill.

Begin Turn #17
Mew used Horn Drill!
Mew's attack missed!
Mew is hurt by poison!
---------------------------------
Kabutops used Double-Edge!
(36% damage)
A critical hit!
Kabutops is hit with recoil!
Mew fainted!
billy sent out Kabuto (Lv.77 Kabuto)!
---------------------------------
End of turn #17
Cheese & Chili's Kabutops: 81 HP
billy's Kabuto: 100% HP

And another! A young aspiring kabuto was sent out. Obviously in awe of his older brother, the kabuto did not show if it if he felt a bit timid, surfing a big wave right in his evolutions direction. This wave brought kabutops down to 1 HP, and then killed itself with the following double-edge. Parasex came in to finish kabuto off with one of its draining attacks.

Begin Turn #20
Kabuto used Surf!
(30 damage)
It's not very effective...
---------------------------------
Parasect used Mega Drain!
(62% damage)
It's super effective!
Kabuto had its energy drained!
Kabuto fainted!
billy sent out Raticate (Lv.72 Raticate)!
---------------------------------
End of turn #20
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 218 HP
billy's Raticate: 100% HP

I smell a rat! Parasex, uber as it is, could not hope to destroy this gutsy pokemon, and decided to cripple it with it's toxic attack instead. This was the last pokemon Cheese had to defeat to reward himself with an impressive victory! What happened next sums up pokemon for me. A 90 accuracy move verse a 90 accuracy move.

Begin Turn #21
Raticate used Blizzard!
(108 damage)
It's super effective!
---------------------------------
Parasect used Toxic!
Parasect's attack missed!
---------------------------------
End of turn #21
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 110 HP
billy's Raticate: 100% HP

Begin Turn #22
Raticate used Blizzard!
(100 damage)
It's super effective!
---------------------------------
Parasect used Toxic!
Parasect's attack missed!
---------------------------------
End of turn #22
Cheese & Chili's Parasect: 10 HP
billy's Raticate: 100% HP

Begin Turn #23
Raticate used Bubblebeam!
(10 damage)
It's not very effective...
Parasect fainted!
Cheese & Chili sent out Tentacool (Lv.79 Tentacool)!

Pretty haxy, you may think, but I've seen worse.

Begin Turn #24
Raticate used Blizzard!
(41 damage)
A critical hit!
It's not very effective...
Tentacool was frozen solid!
---------------------------------
Tentacool is frozen solid!
---------------------------------
End of turn #24
Cheese & Chili's Tentacool: 32 HP (Frz)
billy's Raticate: 100% HP

Begin Turn #25
Raticate used Tackle!
Raticate's attack missed!
---------------------------------
Tentacool is frozen solid!
---------------------------------
End of turn #25
Cheese & Chili's Tentacool: 32 HP (Frz)
billy's Raticate: 100% HP

Begin Turn #26
Raticate used Blizzard!
(21 damage)
It's not very effective...
---------------------------------
Tentacool is frozen solid!
---------------------------------
End of turn #26
Cheese & Chili's Tentacool: 11 HP (Frz)
billy's Raticate: 100% HP

Begin Turn #27
Raticate used Blizzard!
(11 damage)
It's not very effective...
Tentacool fainted!
Cheese & Chili sent out Sandslash (Lv.69 Sandslash)!
---------------------------------
End of turn #27
Cheese & Chili's Sandslash: 240 HP
billy's Raticate: 100% HP

Have you? Seriously?

Blizzard refused to miss as sandslash bravely earthquaked. It was not enough though and Raticate raked up its third scalp of the match. Pidgeotto was sent out with high hopes of putting this rodent to it's deathbed. I double-edged as blizzard hit once again (stupid rby blizzard), and instead of finishing my pidgeotto off, the Raticate went for a nap, right there in the middle of the arena! Pidgeotto finished off the sleeping raticate to end the hotly contested battle!!

Pros
- Parasex, for killing 4 pokemon like it was no-ones business.
- Poliwag, for showing why bubble is a better choice than ice beam against a grass type
- Rhyhorn, for sucking

Cons
- Raticate for blizzarding like a rat possessed.
- Tentacool for showing why it is not its last syllable.
- Seaking, for keeping the bench warm

GG Bitch RBY CC FTW OMG

Toxic's accuracy isn't 90%; it's 85%.

Maybe I'm really high, but I lost myself in that warstory 3 or 4 times.

I laughed at the war story but the title is really really cliché.
