Field Type- Ice
Complexity- Intense
Format- All


Restrictions and important notes:
Algorstorms can be generated by using hail
Algorstorms last three rounds
A-storms deal 4HP to all non ice types, give 30% freeze chance to ice attacks with freeze chance and 10% freeze chance to ice types originally without a freeze chance, and can the attack sheer cold
in an a-storm sheer cold becomes a 15BP ice move with 60 accuracy and a 75% chance to freeze foe completely
at the end of round one all non ice pokemon contract weak hypothermia
at the end of round three all non ice pokemon, non fire pokemon, and pokemon without thick fat contract moderate Hypothermia
at the end of round five all non ice/fire/thick fat pokemon contract extreme hypothermia
non ice pokemon use three more energy to dig
if non ice/fire/thick fat pokemon touch the water or make contact with the water, they go up one grade of hypothermia and ice attacks gain 5% more freeze chance when directed towards them

Algorstorm: A harsh and extreme enviroment, Algorstorm is a chilly paradise to ice types and a frozen hell for others. This arena resembles the taiga of Siberian Russia, and the area available to battle on is 1500 feet wide and long, circular shaped. for a description of the terrain, imagine the arena is a bullseye. the white outer ring consists of mountains, all snowy and treacherous (ring is 200 feet thick). the white and blue rings are merged together and form a large forest (300 feet thick). the forest's trees are tall and skinny, due to the massive snow storms packing the needles together. the forest is a large clump of frozen life. The red ring of the bullseye is plains, thick with snow (400 feet thick). in the center of the arena area lies a huge frozen lake (400 feet long and 200 feet wide). the water is 30 degrees, but surprisingly it isnt all ice. you dont want to touch the water though, unless you're part ice or have some thick fat. The area's temperature never reaches above -20 degrees fahrenheit, and it is always either snowing, hailing, blizzarding, or even worse, Algorstorming. named after the area in which it resides, Algorstorms are blizzards bigger and meaner old brothers. if one whips up, beware! it will release destructive hail, worse than regular, so non ice types will lose 4HP per action. The sub zero power of the storm, as well as the arena, boosts ice moves, so their ability to freeze is increased! (ice moves that give a chance to freeze now have a 30% freeze chance. ice moves that do not give a chance to freeze now have a 10% freeze chance. also ice move combonations have a 100% chance to freeze target.) and if that weren't enough, the trump move of all ice types changes drastically! Sheer cold gets more accuracy and will almost surely freeze you! (though it powers down oddly enough).

so, think you can handle algorstorms? sadly, the area does not produce these wonders naturally anymore. you'll have to trigger one yourself! if a pokemon uses the move hail, their icy powers to react with the already stormy ice weather can create, can you guess, an algorstorm! algorstorms last 3 round.

as if the storms weren't enough, another factor plays into this arena drastically. Due to the hellish climate of the area (remember, -20 fahrenheit!), your pokemon may succumb to Hypothermia. now, ice pokemon will never be affected by hypothermia, and fire types (and pokemon with the ability thick fat in play) can only contract weak hypothermia. but everyone else, beware! there are three stages of Hypothermia:

Weak Hypothermia: The battler loses 10 base speed (e.g a pokemon with originally 80 speed gets weak hypothermia and now has 70 speed)

Moderate Hypothermia: battler loses 20 base speed (e.g pokemon with 80 now has 60 base) and loses 1BP to all non ice attacks

Extreme Hypothermia: Battler loses 30 base speed (e.g pokemon with 80 speed now has 50 base speed), loses 2BP to all non ice attacks, and loses 2HP per action

Ways you contract Hypothermia:

1) battling in the Algorstorm arena: the climate and weather is too harsh! Hypothermia is always prone here! At the end of round one all non ice pokemon get weak hypothermia. after round three it goes up to moderate hypothermia (fire types and thick fat users do not get moderate or extreme). at the end of round five a pokemon with moderate hypothermia now has extreme hypothermia.

2) getting hit by ice moves: if a pokemon has weak hypothermia and loses 25 or more HP from ice attacks, they will get Moderate Hypothermia. if a pokemon has Moderate hypothermia and loses 45 or more HP form ice attacks, they will get extreme Hypothermia.

Other things to be wary of:

Due to the frozen ground, only ice types can use dig with ease. dig used by non ice types cost 3 more ener.

If a pokemon comes in contact with the water in the center of the arena and is not ice type or have thick fat, they get weak hypothermia (or hypothermia boosts up a grade if already present), and ice attacks against them will have a 5% more chance of freezing.

The weather cannot be changed, unless to induce a algorstorm. at the beginning of the match there is a 30% for snow, 30% for hail, 40% chance for blizzarding.

I'll be your ref for today. Here are the teams:

Imba arena is imba.

Glacier you're up.

[Glacier Knight]

Gavin, please finish off the slowpoke before it harms any of your comrades. also stop that tepig from causing more havoc with his blazing attacks
Faint Attack slowpoke~ Fake Out Tepig

Twiggy, i would like you try your best to whittle down tepig's health
Stomp Tepig~Stomp Tepig

Drake, combine your forces with Twiggy to eliminate the fire pokemon
Razor Shell Tepig~ Razor Shell Tepig

that should be all. box i apologize for questioning your reffing.

[Box]

It's bad punctuation wise, and many terms are poorly or otherwise unclearly phrased. Also, it was a critical hit, not STAB bonus.

Edit: Nah, it's cool bro, you should be questioning it.

[Texas Cloverleaf]

wut

EDIT: This should be interesting.

Onix: BE A MAN! Bodyblock your bro face Slowpoke. Then Bodyblock bro face 2 Tepig. YOU DA MAN!

~evil laughter~

Slowpoke and Tepig, Zen headbutt and Flame Charge x2 at Snover. If Snover faints, redirect attacks to Shellder and Sneasel respectively, replacing Flame CHarge with Superpower in Tepig's case.


Ref note: From the way I saw the data audit description there is no mention of speed so Onix should apparently cblock the attacks without fail.

EDIT: If my interpretation of bodyblock is incorrect have onix Rock Blast Snover twice, shifting to Sneasel if it dies.

To inform you that Bodyblock is indeed priority 0 and Onix will not save Slowpoke from being KO'd. I will have him Rock Blast Snover twice.

[Texas Cloverleaf]

K, I had a discussion with Objection about that this morning so that's fine. Will edit this with actions after the reffing is up.

Things look bad for Texas Cloverleaf; can he pull through in these harsh conditions?

[Texas Cloverleaf]

Rock Throw Sneasel, Rock Blast Sneasel. If Shellder uses Bubblebeam use Dig to evade it, targeting Sneasel.

[Glacier Knight]

........texas has critted like 5 times and i havent critted once..... :/

Twiggy, take a rest girl. you did your part and im proud of you.

Ok guys, lets extract our revenge for the fall of twiggy. onix shall be a pile of frosty boulders!

Gavin, I think we can save you. in the arena description (and yes box you are true on some points, after this battle i will edit the arena to be easier to read and avoid confusion), ice typed combonations have a one hundred percent chance of feezing in algorstorms. and since algorstorm still has one more round, this attack will stop onix in his tracks!
Quick Attack + Ice Punch combonation Onix~ Rest

Onix should be renamed Gerard the Haxx0r.

Or something.

Toxic ma just give me a shot at this...
Good luck to thee fair Glacier, the manliest of men shall come through now!

[Glacier Knight]

well, that worked i believe. at least pretty good. great game Texas, its time to finish this!!!

Drake, be the manliest shell creature ever!

and what's more manly than risking it all? (note: Sub-Zero Bolt is Ice beam + Aurora Beam combo)

and hey box icy wind lowered onix's speed, and you said so in the calcs, but it says onix still has 50 speed. it would be lowered would it not? i talked with some people on irc, and they they icy wind's speed drop would degrade at the end of the next round, the round after icy wind was used.

Shell Smash (if he taunts you a1 then hit him with a Sub-Zero Bolt)~ Bubble Beam (Cooldown if sub-zero bolt was used a1)

[Texas Cloverleaf]

Dig and hold, release Dig.

Unless I f'd up, Dig should avoid the bubbles.

Placeholder post. I do this when I need to clear things up.

No, Icy Wind lasts a minimum of 4 actions because it is a drop that accompanies damage. Also, Icy Wind does not lower Base Speed. Hypothermia does. That's why I noted Onix's Base Speed at 50 instead of 60. Note that Onix has the debuff (Speed -1), which means he now has 25 effective speed.

It's ending soon

Drake: Shell Smash, BubbleBeam

Cannon: Dig (Stay Under), Release Dig

DRAKE GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGGO

Drake, you have a spiked special attack. he has a lowish special defense. you have bubbles. Time to beam up with,

Bubble Frenzy!
(Bubble Beam+Bubble Beam combo)

*Starts To Pray That Sassy Will Save Him*

Either way this goes you've been a boss Onix. 2 KOs, can you go for 3? (Well 1.5 KOs anyway, you deserve more of the credit than Tepig XD)

Also, 4 posts until the CC warstory!

Soundtrack for the battle:

The final round deserves flavor.

It's been a long, harsh battle in this arena. The snow is raging, and my hot chocolate is slowly running out. Cannon lies on the ground shivering with cold, and a thick coating of frost has accumulated over Drake, noticeably hurting him. Both Cannon and Drake are blue with cold, and Nurse Joy is going to have a field day healing these two critters! Both trainers are shouting words of encouragement to their Pokemon to keep them going, and it looks like they're getting up for one final struggle to duke it out for victory!

Drake knows he can't be much faster than Cannon, so he doesn't give a fuck! Drake starts to glow a bright blue, his eyebrows knit together in concentration! Despite the cold, he begins to sweat profusedly, and it looks like he can barely hold in the energy he's gathering from his surroundings!

Cannon notices that Drake is preparing to unleash a devastating, and likely lethal, attack, and in desperation he uses his tail to send a flurry of boulders rocketing towards the clam! A total of five massive boulders hits Shellder, but Drake's hard shell helps him to weather the onslaught!

Cannon notices that his opponent is still alive, and slumps to the ground; all hope is lost for him. He watches with terror in his eyes as the blue energy surrounding his opponent disperses in all directions before gathering in a single concentrated point in the opening of Drake's shell. Knowing it is his only chance, Cannon begins to run; as far and as fast away as he can. Finally, Drake inhales a loud, shuddering breath, then releases a stream of bubbles filled with condensed energy in the aura sphere.

Hell breaks loose.

The beam, consisting of a stream of compacted energy spheres, creates a direct path for itself, cutting through the powerful winds of Algorstorm with no effort, creating a sonicboom that knocks back even Shellder as the attack penetrates the sound barrier. The beam reaches Onix, who has travelled far beyond the boundaries of the arena, in under a second. The attack lands a direct hit on Onix, and you can see the miniscule explosions as each bubble pops against his body.

Onix releases a bone-rattling bellow before he falls to the ground, defeated.

Shellder lights a cigarette and puts on his shades.

All in a day's work.

Glacier has won, folks!
