The Frozen Throne

---

The Frozen Throne, the dreaded seat of power of the Lich King, is a large ice platform upon the top of a giant spire. An invisible wall surrounds the platform, preventing any Pokémon from falling below. However, it is highly unadvisable to fly too much above the arena, because the strong winds generally cause the unfortunate mon to be blown away (which would result in the Pokémon being effectively knocked out).

An interesting feature of the Frozen Throne is its soul siphon. Whenever a Pokémon deals 30 or more damage in a single round, he acquires a Soul Fragment at the end of the round. The Fragment can be used at the start of the next round to get one of the following effects:

- Restoring 10 Energy. This effect does not consume an action.
- Powering up an attack, causing it to deal 3 more damage. The user must declare which attack will be powered up (for example, he could issue the following order: Tackle - Thunder Wave - Tackle (powered up) ).

The Soul Fragment must be used in the round it gets available or it is lost (so, you cannot store it up). If the Soul Fragment is not used in the turn it is available, the user takes 10 flat damage caused by the fragment exploding.

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

Good Luck Trainers!

[Korski]

Yeah well I suppose If I can get past that Voodoom I have a shot.

Start us off strong, Turvy!


You'll have Levitate, of course!

[Son_of_Shadoo]

... Well, Lil SoS is deadweight! GODDAMN IT. Go Fiyero, take Volt Absorb, I guess?

We arrive at the infamous, Frozen Throne. Korski starts by sending out Turvy the Hydreigon, and Shadoo responds by sending out Fiyero the Voodoom. Fiyero kicks things off with an Aura Sphere, but Turvy Flies high into the air. The strong winds buffet her, almost knocking her off-course, but she manages to mantain control as she crashes into Fiyero. Turvy then decides to show off some of her Acrobatic skills and manages to gain a Soul Shard from the damage. Fiyero then retaliates with a Pin Missile and then tries to get Revenge on Turvy, but she quickly sets up a Substitute to take the blows.

Korski, you're up.

[Korski]

Alright then first off let's go ahead and use that Soul Fragment to get some energy back. Ideally we'll be getting another one after this Round.

Acrobatics~Draco Meteor~Acrobatics

IF Voodoom is ordered to use Pain Split AND Hydreigon does not have an intact Substitute, THEN use Fly on that Action and push Actions back.

Oh my. This is going to suck.

Still being a bit of a show-off, Turvy continues to show off her Acrobatic skills, crashing into Fiyero in the process. Fiyero then attacks with another Pin Missile, launching one, shattering Turvy's Substitute, then proceeds to fire four more. Turvy then lets loose a mighty roar, as (Draco) Meteors begin to fall from the sky, plummeting onto Fiyero. Fiyero is quick to get his Revenge, as he throws punches and kicks with power we have yet to see from the Voodoll. It seems we have repeat of the first exchange now, as Turvy slams into Fiyero with another Acrobatics, and Fiyero retaliates by launching fourPin Missiles at Turvy, and they both earn themselves a Soul Shard.

Mach Punch + Mach Punch combo (powered up) >>> Cooldown >>> Mach Punch
If Protect is used on action 1, chill A1 and shift actions down.

Unless I'm mistaken, the above combo will do 19 damage with the fragment powering it up, assuming dmtc rounds up. Daaaaaamn, too close.

[Korski]

Whatever.

Let's go, Sucker! Finish this.



Fake Out x3

IF Voodoom uses Protect on A1, use that time to set up a 20 HP Substitute!

Not wasting any time, Sucker Fakes Lil SoS Out, making the Mr. Mime flinch! Lil SoS then tries to show off his Charm, but Sucker doesn't seem to be responding. Oh wait, that's not the real Sucker, that's a Substitute. Lil SoS still doesn't seem to realize, as he launches a Magical Leaf at the Sub. Sucker then sneaks up behind Lil SoS and Crunches down on him. Lil SoS recoils from the impact and winces away as Sucker then retreats behind his Substitute.

Continuing to go on the offensive, Sucker comes out from behind his Substitute and Crunches down on Lil SoS. Lil SoS knows that he can't take many more hits like that, so he decides to set up a Reflective barrier to weaken Sucker's attacks. This doesn't seem to faze Sucker, and he rams his (Mega)Horn into Lil SoS, sending him sprawling backwards. Lil SoS then unleashes another Magical Leaf, and it once again hits Sucker's Substitute. The Sub wasn't able to withstand the force this time, as it shattered upon impact. Now defenseless, Lil SoS launches another Magical Leaf, this time hitting Sucker dead on. Scuker quickly retaliates with another Crunch, biting down so hard that Lil SoS appears to have teeth marks on him.
