Dratini: Valoo (M)

Anghammarad the Golett

Golett: Anghammarad

Nature: Sassy (Adds One (1) Rank to Special Defense; 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:

Ground: Ground STAB; Immune to all electrical attacks, can Dig through almost any substance, Evasive Digging reduced from 6 per action Energy Cost to 5 per action, superior senses in darkened cave surroundings.
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:
Iron Fist: (Innate) The Base Attack Power of this Pokemon’s “Punch” attacks is increased by two (2). (Known attacks affected: Bullet Punch, Comet Punch, Dizzy Punch, Drain Punch, Dynamicpunch, Fire Punch, Focus Punch, Hammer Arm, Ice Punch, Mach Punch, Mega Punch, Meteor Mash, Shadow Punch, Sky Uppercut, Thunderpunch)
Klutz: (Can be Disabled) The Pokemon moves in a rare style of battling that uses an unpredictable, clumsy looking manner. The accuracy of its attacks are increased by 10% (flat). While engaging in this style it cannot use a hold item, though an item is necessary to pull it off.
No Guard (DW): (Locked, Innate) This Pokemon has an immense confidence from perfecting each of its attacks, giving them all perfect accuracy. As a result, it feels it can weather every strike, and will not dodge an attack even if ordered to. Only when an OHKO move is issued by the opponent does sense return, and the Pokemon acts normally. Additionally, even with their extra skill, the power and exhaustion involved in using OHKO moves prevents them from being benefited by No Guard; they will have their normal accuracy.

"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my first match reffing at the ASB Arena (damn I hate forests). Today we have a simple doubles duel between The Wanderer and EndQuote, speaking of which, here they are! On the left hand side we have Wanderer and his team; the two terrors of Terra Firma, Charles the Colloshale and Larch the Aron! And on the right hand side, his opponent EndQuote walks onto the stage with his dynamic duo in Dratini (Valoo) and Golett (Anghammarad)! I could make a 'hammered' pun with Golett's nickname, but it would probably be terrible, so I'm not going to."

"Well, without further ado, let the match begin!"

Two terrors of Terra Firma? I like it.

Charles'll be holding an Expert Belt while Larch'll be carrying a quick claw.

You're the only one. (So. Many. Bad. EndQuote puns)

Valoo the Dratini will hold a Rocky Helmet.
Icy Wind @ Both ~ Thunderbolt @ Colloshale
IF Colloshale uses Protect a2 THEN Flamethrower @ Aron that action.

Anghammarad the Golett will hold an Expert Belt.
Klutz is going to be Enabled.
Gravity ~ Dynamic Punch @ Colloshale
IF Colloshale is underground a2 THEN target Aron instead.

"Here we go, ladies and gentlemen, as the battle begins! Charles starts off the match by firing an immensely powerful Water Spout at his foes, striking Dratini for little damage and Golett for massive damage! Valoo retaliates by blowing Icy Wind onto Wanderer's side of the field, doing pitiful damage but lowering both Colosshale's and Aron's speed. In preparation for his next move, Anghammarad increases the Gravity on the field, slowing everyone down and making evasion harder. Noting this, Larch takes advantage of the increased gravity to strike Golett with a very accurate Head Smash for some decent, if not very effective, damage.

Sensing the incoming attack from Golett, Larch commences the next phase by Protecting against future hits, and Charles, who is still faster than everyone else, Digs into the floor of the arena, evading Valoo's incoming Thunderbolt. Anghammarad attempts to hit Aron with a Dynamicpunch, but cannot break Aron's tough armor protection. Finally, Charles resurfaces to strike Golett from below.

The round ends with nobody taking much damage at all except for Anghammarad! Will the action increase next round, or are we in for a very slow match?"

Calculations

---

ACTION 1

[Quick Claw=2000 or less] - 5736 (NO)

Charles used Water Spout! It's not very effective on Dratini... It's super effective on Anghammarad!
[Crit=625 or less] - 7070 (NO - Dratini)
[Crit=625 or less] - 745 (NO but very close! - Golett)
(15+3+1.5)*0.67 = 13.065 Damage on Dratini
(15+3+2)*1.75 = 35 Damage on Golett
7 Energy used

Valoo used Icy Wind! It's not very effective on Charles and Larch... Charles' Speed fell! Larch's Speed fell!
[Miss=500 or less] - 1176 (NO - Colosshale)
[Crit=625 or less] - 3671 (NO - Colosshale)
[Crit=625 or less] - 2340 (NO - Aron)
(6+1.5)*0.67 = 5.025 Damage on Colosshale
-1 Spe
(6+1.5-1)*0.44 = 2.86 Damage on Aron
-1 Spe
5 Energy used

Anghammarad used Gravity! Gravity intensified!
10 Energy used

Larch used Head Smash! It's not very effective...
[Crit=1250 or less] - 4151 (NO)
(14.67+3+3)*0.67 = 13.8489 Damage
9 Energy used

ACTION 2

(98/1.75 is 56, so Colosshale still outspeeds everyone else and Aron is still slower than everyone else, making the speed drop pointless so far)

[Quick Claw=2000 or less] - Irrelevant

Larch used Protect! Larch protected itself!
7+(Damage/2.5) Energy used

Charles used Dig! Charles dug underground!
10 Energy used

Valoo used Thunderbolt! Charles evaded the hit!
7 Energy used

Anghammarad used DynamicPunch! Larch protected itself!
(10+2-1.5-1)*2.25 = 21.375 Damage blocked (for Protect purposes)
8 Energy used

Charles used Dig!
[Crit=625 or less] - 838 (NO, but close again!)
8 Damage

[The Wanderer]

I just realized something. This isn't a triples battle; why are we only posting two actions?

Charles: Water Spout -> Dig (Golett)* -> Bite (Golett)
*If Golett uses Earthquake, use Sucker Punch (Golett)
KO: If Golett is KOed, redirect all remaining attacks at Dratini

Larch: Dragon Rush (Golett) -> Head Smash (Golett)* -> Dragon Rush (Golett)
*If Golett uses Protect, redirect Head Smash to Dratini
KO: If Golett is KOed, redirect all remaining attacks at Dratini

[EndQuote]

Whoops. Could have sworn I posted actions.
Sorry, mate.

Anghammarad:
Enable Klutz: Dynamic Punch (Colosshale) ~ Drain Punch + Dynamic Punch (Colosshale) ~ Cooldown

Valoo:
Dragon Pulse (Colosshale) ~ Thunderbolt + Thunderbolt Combo (Colosshale) ~ Cooldown

IF Colosshale has fainted, THEN Drain Punch (Aron) OR Flamethrower (Aron) respectively.

"Pardon my tardiness, but now that classes are over I should be quicker at reffing. Now, let's get back into the match!

Realizing the dire situation he's in, EndQuote orders Valoo to brace itself, so as to Endure future hits. However The Wanderer sees right through that plan, and Charles asks for an Encore, making Valoo keep bracing itself for the rest of the round! Meanwhile, super fast thanks to its Quick Claw, Larch smashes Valoo with a powerful Double-Edge, but Valoo endures the hit and deals some damage back with its Rocky Helmet in the process.

Taking advantage of the helpless Dratini, The Wanderer orders his Pokémon to relax and gain energy, while slapping Valoo with mud so as to lower its accuracy, and attempting to gain a paralysis by Bouncing on top of it, though being a snake and lacking limbs makes this last attempt futile, only serving to rack up some Rocky Helmet damage. EndQuote can only watch as his Dratini keeps trying to endure hits that aren't coming."
