Kirlia: Paradox (M)

Nature: Quiet: Adds * to Special Attack; Divides Base Speed by 1.15 and gives a flat 10 point decrease in evasion, effectively adding 10 accuracy (e.g. 85 becomes 95) on an opponent’s attacks.

Type:

Zoroark: Nightfall (M)

Nature: Quirky

Type:

Dark: Dark STAB; immunity to all telepathic and telekinetic attacks, better performance in all darkened and especially twilight conditions. Can use any Dark-type attack regardless of Attraction.

Abilities:
Illusion: (Innate) Whenever you send this Pokemon out, it can feign the appearance of another member on your squad. If this Pokemon is damaged by a direct attack, the Illusion will cease at the end of the round. Direct damage is any attack that does damage to the Pokemon's HP. Attacks that are evaded, blocked via Protect, or damage a Substitute are not considered direct damage. It will retain the typing and moveset of the Pokemon with Illusion. [Usage Note: PM the ref if you are sending out a Zorua or Zoroark with the info on Zorua/Zoroark and one of your squad members in a Switch=KO battle. You must use that squad member later in the battle though.]

"See, this is one of the laws of the universe. You know, atoms make up all matter, gravity pulls things down, Rico'll tear you a new one, stuff like that."
The Kumar to the wanderer's Harold (or is it the other way around?). Hot-headed and hotter-blooded, Rico is a devout follower of the rule of cool...seriously, why else would he wear that scarf?

Nature: Naughty (+1 atk, -1 SpD)
Type: Fighting/Steel
Fighting: Fighting STAB; ignore weight restrictions of throwing/grappling moves. Superior reaction time in close quarters.

Abilities: Inner Focus, Steadfast, Justified (DW)
Inner Focus: (innate) When an opponent attempts to flinch this Pokemon, it stands firm and continues its attack. If it has another ability that would be activated by flinching, that ability activates.
Steadfast: (innate) If this Pokemon is flinched, it becomes aware of the speed difference and increases speed by one (1) stage to make up the difference. This speed boost is maintained at the end of each round.
Justified (DW, unlocked): (innate) This Pokemon's body reacts to dark energy, invigorating its passions. When hit by a Dark-type move, the Pokemon's attack will increase one (1) stage. A boost gained this way by another Pokemon's attack will be maintained at the end of each round. Self-targeted attacks do not maintain boosts.

Cyclohm

---

Cyclohm [Karamazov (From left head: Mitya, Alyosha and Ivan)] (Male)

Abilities: Shield Dust, Static, Overcoat (DW)
Shield Dust: (Innate) This pokemon has dust covering the outside of its body that prevents opponents secondary effects from taking place (eg burn from Flamethrower). It does not block direct status moves (such as Thunder Wave.)
Static: (Innate) This pokemon’s body is surrounded by an electric field that has a 30% chance of paralyzing opponents that use contact moves on this pokemon.
Overcoat (DW, Unlocked): (Innate) This Pokemon has a sturdy exterior that rebuffs the elements, making it immune to damage inflicted by bad weather. If the Pokemon is already immune to at least one (1) kind of weather by typing or a different ability, Overcoat reduces the Base Attack Power of all oncoming attacks by one (1).

Fraxure

---

Fraxure [Anonicus] (Male)
"<Vae victus!>"
A Fraxure the wanderer met along with Fion the Necturine, and for reasons unknown, something of a surrogate father to her. Noble and charismatic, Anonicus finds himself in a leader role more often than not.

Nature: Adamant (+1 Atk, -1 SpA)
Type: Dragon
Dragon: Dragon STAB; more in touch with legendary or special auras in arenas. Able to use Thrash without losing focus.

Abilities: Rivalry, Mold Breaker, Unnerve (DW)
Rivalry: (Innate) This Pokemon has a primal response to competition and mating, increasing the Base Attack Power of all its attacks by two (2) when it attacks an opponent of the same gender in the same Egg Group, and decreasing the power of all its attacks by two (2) when it faces an opponent of the opposite gender in the same Egg Group (Monster/Ground are used for Nidorina/Nidoqueen).
Mold Breaker: (Innate) Whenever this Pokemon attacks, it emits an invisible, blindingly quick pulse preceding the attack that disables the opponents natural abilities (e.g. Levitators plummet towards the ground before Earthquake hits, Volt Absorb will not absorb electric attacks, Clear Body does not prevent stat-drops, etc.)
Unnerve (DW, Locked): The Pokemon's presense causes immense tension in the opponent, preventing them from eating a held Berry. Natural Gift may still be used.

Necturine

---

Necturine [Fion] (Female)
"<Go away. I don't like you.>"

Nature: Relaxed (+1 Def, -15% speed, -10 Evasion)
Type: Grass / Ghost
Grass: Grass STAB; Immunity to Leech Seed and Worry Seed. 50% reduction in status effect chance of oncoming “powder” attacks. More mobile in areas with strong natural light sources. Superior senses in tall grass and forest areas. Able to use Wrap and Bind without losing focus.
Ghost: Ghost STAB; brief intangibility that nullifies Normal and Fighting-type attacks. Can move through walls for a brief period of time but must remain in motion. Superior senses in low light and inside dark buildings. Have no vision reduction in hazes.

Abilities: Anticipation, Telepathy (DW)
Anticipation: (Innate) This Pokemon is better at sensing dangerous attacks, and reduced the Base Attack Power from super-effective attacks, Selfdestruct, and Explosion by two (2).
Telepathy (DW, Locked): (Innate) This Pokemon has a mental link with its allies in multiple battles, allowing it to avoid taking damage from attacks that affect the whole field like Earthquake and Surf.

And it looks that, even though both are competitors are battered and bruised, Nightfall looks like he can endure a little bit more while 2 of Karamazov's heads are barely able to hang on, while the third is only in the battle through force of sheer will! Will the dragon be able to get off a quick, powerful strike to take the lead, or will Nightfall's deceiving nature allow it to survive?!

Back-breaking knee smash -> Knightfall (3 EN)

The Dark Knight fainted!

DESHI DESHI BASURA BASURA DESHI DESHI BASURA BASURA

(K)Nightfall: "Bane..."
Anonicus: "Not my name, but it works for now."
(K)Nightfall: "LEAVE GOTHAM CITY, OR I WILL SCREAM AT YOU IN MY RASPY VOICE SOME MORE RAAAAWWRRZ"
Anonicus: "Wut?"

DESHI DESHI BASURA BASURA DESHI DESHI BASURA BASURA

After a lengthy fight scene, Anonicus lifts (K)Nightfall high over his head to deliver the final blow

Anonicus: "I am Bane -- and I could kill you... but death would only end your agony - andsilence your shame.Instead,I will simply... BREAK YOU"

Anonicus then slams his knee straight into the weakened Zoroark's spine, breaking it into two, making it doubtful if he could ever move again if EndQuote doesn't get him to a PokéCenter (not that there's really any rush, those things are fucking magic). Then, just to add insult to injury, Anonicus leans over (K)Nightfall and delivers a light scratch across his face, and the Dark-type faints.

DESHI DESHI BASURA BASURA!
