(Completed) Steampowered Vs C$FP: ASB's First Team Battle! (Arcanite refs, tutor S_o_S)

[Arcanite]

And Welcome to the spectacular Waterfall Colloseum!
We have a battle between Steampowered and c$FP today!
Both competitors bring 4 pokemon, and do 3 rounds of 1Vs1 Singles, chosing the order of their mons prior to them seing their opponents Pokemon!


Restrictions: Team Battles only, no digging

This arena is specifically made for a "Team Battle". Here is an example of a Team Battle for a 3v3 Singles: each trainer brings 4 Pokemon. Once they see each other's teams, they PM the ref the order they want their Pokemon to battle. Then, a series of 1v1's take place, Trainer 1's first Pokemon against Trainer 2's first Pokemon, etc. Best out of 3 is the victor (if there is an even amount of battles, like an 8v8 Doubles, the winning Pokemon from each match will be fully healed and the trainers will reorder their Pokemon via PMing the ref). For the actual arena, it is on the side of a mountain on an island. There is a platform built with an arena painted on the stone floor. There is a waterfall flowing down the mountain and into the arena. There are stone pillars just outside of a moat created by the water coming in. Otherwise, the only specific restriction is that there is no digging, because it is a stone floor. There is enough water for continuous use, any weather can take place, the whole structure can endure seismic activity. Enjoy Team Battling!

2 Recoveries/5 Chills per Pokemon
Arena: Waterfall Colosseum

Let me say that Team Battling really is a fun form of battling, and it doesn't make a difference if one of your Pokemon loses by 1 HP or if it is destroyed, it is simply best out of 3.

EDIT: I almost forgot, don't use any Pokemon that have entered battle before, and no Fire-types, just because of the Pokemon I will be using. Thank you!

EDIT AGAIN: Ok, I guess it doesn't matter if they have been in battle, but no single-stages or second of three, just first of two or first of three.

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 attacks regardless of weight difference. Psychic-type attacks are not godlike and cannot be used as a catchall for Disabling, Binding, and redirecting opposing attacks.

Abilities:
Ability 1: Clear Body
Type: Innate
This Pokemon’s body structure makes it immune to status lowering moves used by opponents. (e.g. Intimidate, Growl, Screech etc.)

Ability 2: Light Metal (DW)
Type: Innate
The Pokemon's body is made of a lightweight but extremely strong alloy. It weighs half as much as other members of the species, but is equally sturdy. The Pokemon executes weak attacks much more effectively, adding +1 priority to all their attacks with 6 or less Base Attack Power (after other ability adjustments). Priority is applied to the summed Base Attack Power of a multi-hit move (e.g. Double Kick has priority at 6 BAP, Skill Link Bullet Seed doesn't at 15 BAP.)

----------------------------------------------

The Pokeballs open, and out comes a cute Blue Penguin called Royal (Piplup), and a robotic creature called Brains (A Beldum). Royal begins by conjuring up sparkling rings of water, an aquatic ring of healing! Brains, despite having an incredible IQ, is jealous, and slams into Royal with a Zen Headbutt. Royal retaliates by squirting a jet of scalding water at Brains, but his thick metal exterior stops the heat getting to Brains too much. Brains tries to Zen Headbutt Royal Again, doing just as much damage as last time, however, he needs more enegrgy to do so repeatedly. Royal decide to show off his skills, Surfing straight at Beldum. Beldum gets really jealous now, and concentrates so hard on a powerful Zen Headbutt, that he closes his eye, and completely misses!

As the Fighting pauses, I ask My Lucario what he thinks. He replies:
"Beldum is strong,but some more creative attacking might help him break through Piplup's assault.."

Alright Royal!

That was awesome! Alright, lets just do some damage

Scald-Surf-Scald

If Beldum spams any attacking move again, use Brine instead

[C$FP]

We are probably not going to win this, Brains. But, we will have to try something, how about listening to Lucario's advice? We don't have many options for combos, 6 actually. How about we do this one...

Zen Headbutt-Take Down combo ~ nothing because of combo ~ Zen Headbutt

Royal Tries to Burn Brains with another jet of Scalding water, but again, is unsuccessful. Brains decides to retaliate with a Combo of Zen Take Down! It's such a large impact, Royal Flinches, which allows Brains to recover from Combo fatigue. Yet again, Royal tries to Scald Brains, but he remains unburnt. Brains tries another Zen Headbutt, doing some more damage! Piplup's Aqua Ring Promptly disappears.

As the Fighting pauses, I ask My Lucario what he thinks. He replies:
"It has got more exciting now that Beldum has livened it up! Lucky that Beldum remains protected by his metal casing. A Burn would likely write him off completely." DoubleSTAB Combo?

BTW, you can't use actions once pokemon are fainted. Also, it is a series of 3 1Vs1 so Piplup is finished.

[Steampowered]

Alright Arina!

Flamethrower-Flame Charge- Flamethrower

Also I'm leaving tomorrow (Saturday) for a week, so can we postpone the match till then?

[C$FP]

I'm fine with a delay. I'm just going to say it now since it is obvious Tepig will probably beat Scyther, I think we should have the third match regardless of the fact that the winner will already be determined. Winning isn't everything!

Anyway, on to a good try! Who knows, maybe we could even win! Technician is quite the handy ability.

Agility (to avoid the Flamethrower, and get a boost if possible, but dodging is more important), Counter, Aerial Ace

Again, The Pokeballs open, and out comes a cute Orange Pig, called Ariana (Tepig), and a green mantis called Claws (A Scyther). Ariana begins to breathe a Flamethrower at Scyther, but he shows off his agility, and Dodges the attack! Ariana decides that the best thing to do is to cloak herself in Flame and Charge at Scyther. This time, Scyther makes no attept to dodge, but instead takes the attack, and counters it! Scyther, being an ace, uses his Aerial ability to slash at Araiana, causing a scratch on her rump. Ariana realises that Claws is not going to dodge, and she blasts a flamethrower at Claws!

As the Fighting pauses, I ask My Lucario what he thinks. He replies:
"Very even battle. Scythers attacks are stronger because of technician, but Tepig has the type advantage. both Pokemon will have to pull out all the stops to win!"

Scyther's Speed rose 1 stages. (reduced due to evasiveness)
Dodge chance = (User’s Speed - Opponent’s Speed) / 5

Half A Boost, Half a dodge.

Ariana (Tepig) uses Flamethrower!

Claws (Scyther) uses Counter!

Cool, this could work out. I knew you would end up being one of my favorite Pokemon!

Aerial Ace, Wing Attack, Aerial Ace
IF Tepig uses Flame Charge, THEN use Counter on that action

[C$FP]

I don't know what time zones you guys are in or what your availability is, but I would like this match to go a bit faster, just because these guys could use some counters and I would like them to be fully evolved pretty soon.

Also I'm leaving tomorrow (Saturday) for a week, so can we postpone the match till then?

Anyway, on to a good try! Who knows, maybe we could even win! Technician is quite the handy ability.

Agility (to avoid the Flamethrower, and get a boost if possible, but dodging is more important), Counter, Aerial Ace

[C$FP]

Oh yeah, I already forgot about that. Hopefully it will go fast once Steampowered returns then.

[Steampowered]

well I'm back from vacation and can post at a minimum of once a day

[Arcanite]

It's your actions steam!

Alright Arina!

Battle 2: Round 2: "I believe I can fly..."

Ariana the Tepig:

62HP
85 Energy
4/2/2/2/39
-10% Evasion
+1 Speed

Vs

Claws the Scyther

69HP
74 Energy
5/3/1/3/105
Technician (*1.5)

----------------------------------------------

Claws shuffles the cards, and flips over the top one, and it's the Ace of Aerials! Arianna is obviously unimpressed, as she yawns nonchalantly. Claws then attacks Arianna, this time with his wings, again doing sizeable damage! Obviously Scyther has some pollen on his wings, and Arianna has hayfever, so she sneezes some Toxic mucus on Claws, badly poisoning him. It seems that Claws found the Yawn infectious, and he has fallen asleep! I can't see him waking up for a looooong time! Arianna makes the most of this, by shooting a flamethrower straight at Claws, doing plenty of damage

As the Fighting pauses, I ask My Lucario what he thinks. He replies:
"Let's see if Tepig takes advantage of Scyther Being asleep then! He can't be too powerful, Or Scyther might be woken up!"

----------------------------------------------

Ariana the Tepig:

28HP
65 Energy
4/2/2/2/39

Vs

Claws the Scyther

50HP
68 Energy
5/3/1/3/105
Technician (*1.5)
Badly Poisoned (2 damage next round)
Asleep (2 actions)

Calculations

---

Action 1:
Claws (Scyther) uses Aerial Ace:
Hit Roll: Unnecessary
Crit Roll: (1/16 = Crit) (Result = 7, No Crit)
((6*1.5+3+0+(5-2)*1.5+0+0-0-0)*1)+(0-0)*1.5
=16.5 Damage Rounded to 17 Damage (3 Energy, STAB)

Ariana (Tepig) uses Yawn!
Scyther Falls asleep at the End of Action 2!
(Energy Cost=7)

Action 2:

Claws (Scyther) uses Wing Attack:
Hit Roll: Unnecessary
Crit Roll: (1/16 = Crit) (Result = 11, No Crit)
((6*1.5+3+0+(5-2)*1.5+0+0-0-0)*1)+(0-0)*1.5
=16.5 Damage Rounded to 17 Damage (3 Energy, STAB)

Ariana (Tepig) uses Toxic!
Hit Roll: (1/10 = Miss) (Result = 8, Hit)
Scyther is badly poisoned!
(Energy Cost = 7)

Burn Roll: (1/10 = Burn) (Result = 7, No Burn)
((10+3+0+(2-3)*1.5+0+0-0-0)*1.5)+(0-0)*1.5
It's Super effective!
=17.25 Damage Rounded to 17 Damage
(6 Energy, STAB)

Scyther loses 1HP (Poison)

Steampowered, you are up next!

[Steampowered]

Flame Charge-Flamethrower-Flame Charge

if Scyther wakes and uses Counter on Flame Charge, switch that action Defense Curl

[C$FP]

gd, Tepig wins. If only I had used Safeguard. Well, would you guys be willing to have the third match-up anyway?

Aerial Ace, Wing Attack, Aerial Ace

[Steampowered]

I'm up for the third matchup
