No Choices [WARSTORY]

Hello everyone. This is my first warstory, but I hope it'll entertain you; the battle took place on the Suspect Test ladder. Sorry for the sloppy grammar but I'm Italian... however I hope I haven't done lots of errors. Feel free to correct me. And, please comment. Thx.

BACKGROUND: None. Just a story with one of my weird themed teams...

MY TEAM:

Porygon-Z @ Choice Scarf
Heracross @ Choice Scarf
Heatran @ Choice Scarf
Metagross @ Choice Band
Staraptor @ Choice Band
Salamence @ Choice Specs

NOTE 1: MY OPPONENT TEAM WON'T BE REVEALED FOR NOW. IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT, IT'S AT THE END OF THE WARSTORY.
NOTE 2: I HAVEN'T ASKED MY OPPONENT IF I COULD HAVE WARSTORY'D THIS, SO I'LL CALL HIM "OPP".

Opp's moves will look like this.
My (Ahren's) moves will look like this.
other text will look like this.

Rules: Ladder Match, Sleep Clause, Freeze Clause, OHKO Clause, Evasion Clause, Species Clause, Strict Damage Clause
Opp sent out Roserade.
Go, Porygon-Z!

I'm pretty sure Roserade is going to use sleep powder, but since I'm Scarfed I'll have a chance to dent him with Ice Beam. If it's a Specs variant instead he can try Leaf Storm; in that case Pory is dead, but since 90% of the Roserade I met used sleep powder I'll assume this is the Roserade that starts with SP and then lays Toxic Spikes on my switch.

Porygon-Z attacked Roserade with its powerful Ice Beam!
It's very effective!
Roserade was seriously wounded, losing 87% of its health.
Roserade used Sleep Powder.
Porygon-Z is now in Standby!

Porygon-Z: 100%, downloading dreams.
Roserade: 13% but satisfied.

Just what I predicted. I know he's problably setting up TSpikes on my switch, but since the only other member of my team that's hurt by the spikes is Heracross, who will be *happy* if he get poisoned, I'll stay in and try to wake up while he's spiking: if I manage to Ice Beam him again I'll KO him.

Porygon-Z is still in Standby!
Roserade set up Toxic Spikes.
Toxic Spikes were scattered around Porygon-Z!

Porygon-Z: 100% and still in Standby, surrounded by a layer of poisoned spikes.
Roserade: 13%, setting poisoned traps around the foe.

Ok Pory, now it's time to wake up and kill that damned flower before he lays other spikes...

Porygon-Z is still in Standby!
Roserade doubled the number of poisoned spikes.
Now Porygon-Z is surrounded by a lot of traps!

Porygon-Z: 100% and still in Standby, surrounded by a lot of spikes.
Roserade: 13%, but he has done his job.

WAKE UP DAMNED ELECTRONIC BIRD! No, seriously, I'll try to wake up for the last time. I don't know what he's doing now, and Pory is the most sacrificable member of my team.

Opp retired Roserade and sent out Blissey.
Porygon-Z is still in Standby!

Porygon-Z: still 100% and in Standby.
Blissey: 100% and ready to fight.

*SARCASM* Ok Pory, you were really useful! *SARCASM* Time to threaten the pink blob with one of my CCer. Since she's probably using Seismic Toss I'll switch in Staraptor, since Heracross will be weakened enough by the TSpikes.

Ok Pory, well done. Destroy the blob, Staraptor!
The pink blo...sorry, Blissey tried to find the inner peace with Calm Mind.
Blissey's special attack was raised.
Blissey's special defence was raised.

Staraptor: 100% and eager to drill through the pink blob.
Blissey: 100%, looking for the inner peace.

I cannot afford to overpredict, so I'm forced to use Close Combat hoping he's not switching in Gengar, the ban of my team.

Opp sent out Jirachi.
Staraptor attacked Jirachi with Close Combat.
Jirachi lost 39% of its health.
Staraptor's defences were lowered by his attack.

NOTE: JIRACHI IS CARRYING LEFTOVERS. THEY WILL BE OMITTED.

Staraptor: 100% but vulnerable after his attack.
Jirachi: 69% but not worried by the bird.

Oh, a Jirachi. Probably he's playing some sort of stallish/bulky team... but now I'll use my best weapon against the little star, Heatran, since Jirachi can hurt the legendary frog only with HP: Ground/Fighting and it's not probable he's carrying it.

Go, Heatran!
Jirachi hit the legandary frog with a Zen Headbutt, but it's not very effective...
Heatran lost only 13% of its health.

Heatran: 87% and laughing at Jirachi and the Spikes.
Jirachi: 75% and with a big headache since he has hit a big metal frog with his little head.

He should be running Zen/U-Turn/Wish/-filler-... if so he cannot hurt me, and he's switching. I'll use Flamethrower just in case he stays.

Opp switched in Cresselia.
Heatran roasted Cresselia.
Cresselia seems not to care about the fire, only losing 31% of its health.

NOTE: CRESSELIA IS CARRYING LEFTOVERS. THEY WILL BE OMITTED.

Heatran: 87% and frustrated.
Cresselia: 75%.

I have only a way to kill Cress without Exploding something: Heracross. Unless Opp is reading my mind he shouldn't be using Psychic, so I'll be pretty sure switching in.

Ok, Heatran, come back. Horn her Heracross!
Heracross was badly poisoned by the spikes, and now he's really angry.
Cresselia used Psychic. Heracross was smashed. AAAHHH OPP IS READING MY MIND!!! GET OUT OF MY MIND OPP!
I'm joking... here is the real move: Cresselia hit the bug with a sparkling Charge Beam!
Heracross lost 11% of its health laughing.
Cresselia's special attack was raised. Heracross is not laughing anymore.
Heracross is hurt by poison!
Heracross lost 6% of its health.

Heracross: 83% and badly poisoned.
Cresselia: 81%, 1 Special Attack boost but ready to run for her life.

I'm using megahorn: with it I'm hitting Cress, Bliss, Jirachi and Roserade for at least neutral damage. In the worst situation he'll reveal another poke; also, now I know for sure he's using the bulky/stallish team I predicted, so seeing his 5th poke can only help my predictions.

Opp switched in Zapdos.
The electric bird is exerting its pressure!
Heracross placed his (Mega)horn right on Zapdos.
It's not very effective...
Zapdos lost 36% of its health. <- I love Guts.
Heracross is hurt by poison!
Heracross lost 12% of its health.

NOTE: EVEN ZAPDOS IS CARRYING LEFTOVERS. I'LL OMIT THEM.

Heracross: 71%.
Zapdos: 70% with Heracross's horn in his body.

I'll send in Pory to finish him with IB...

Go, Porygon-Z!
A Thunderbolt hit the little electronic thing and caused a black out.
Porygon-Z lost 55% of its health.

Porygon-Z: 45%.
Zapdos: 76%.

Porygon-Z is in Standby!
Zapdos used Thunderbolt.
Porygon-Z lost 45% of its health.

Ouch I forgot about sleep...

Go Heracross, now you can kill the bird!

Porygon-Z: Now Offline
Heracross: 71% and suffering for the poison.
Zapdos: 82%.

OK pretty simple here. I forgot about the sleep and paid with the life(?) of my Pory. SEdge shoul dent Zapdos.

Opp sent in Jirachi.
Heracross used Stone Edge: pointed stones flew against Jirachi and slashed him/her(?).
It's not very effective...
Jirachi lost 19% of its health.
Heracross is hurt by poison!
Heracross lost 6% of its health.

Heracross: 65%.
Jirachi: 62%. -Insert joke about Jirachi here-

Go Salamence!
Salamence's intimidated Jirachi!
Jirachi U-turned away.
It's not very effective...

Spectators: "Ooh, fireworks!"

Zapdos was creamed by the atomic bomb.

Opp 5 - 3 Ahren

Good job Gross. Now, I have Staraptor, Heatran and Heracross left, while he has Bliss, Cresselia, Roserade, Jirachi and an unknown poke left, but I fell I have the advantage here, because I've weakened his team enough and now that I've broken a wall the others will follow (I hope). I'll try Staraptor, because he can hurt Bliss, Cresselia, Roserade and Jirachi. The only threat is the unknown poke.

This log was formatted using Warmachine Version 1.0 and AhrenElessedil Version 1.0. Seriously, I started with Warmachine but then I changed everything... I hate logs. However:

OPP'S TEAM:


PROS:

Opp for the great match.
Opp for his wonderful team.
My Choice Team! I mean, it's a choice team...
Heracross for the sweep.
EXPLOSION!
You, because you have read this till the end. Thank you!

CONS:

Opp. He should've won this, he got haxxed.
Meteor Mash for missing :-(
Porygon-Z. Usually he's the center of the team.
Salamence. He was a s**t in this battle.
Roserade's Toxic Spikes. They only helped me through the match.
HAX
 
I liked it. The commentary was decent as was the battle. It was far better than some of the "warstories" that get posted.
 
Heh, I liked the commentary a lot, and the comments were the perfect length that it was informative, but not reading a book. Well Done!
 
That was a good match. I loved how you edited it to make it less like a log. The references to Porygon were great. I personally don't think your opponant lost because of hax. Your Porygon-Z was asleep for the longest time and Metagross kept missing. And Salamence got frozen at a crucial moment, that allowed Cresselia to heal with rest undesturbed.
 

Malfunction

nice desu ne
I agree with Shineenigma.
Anyways that was an awesome game. I also liked the commentary.
I should get that AhrenElessedil... :P
Anyways Congras. :)
 
This is quite possibly the only good "first try" warstory I have ever seen. This is what we like here at Smogon, not empty pictureless logs with font tags.

Good job man, and cool team too.
 
I'm not a huge fan of the <creative word for a standard move> thing, but overall I liked it. Thank you for showing that although warmachine is a powerful tool, you shouldn't rely on it to "make a warstory for you". Adding your own personal flavor is one thing that makes a good warstory unique.

Good job!
 
Go, Porygon-Z!
A Thunderbolt hit the little electronic thing and caused a black out.
Porygon-Z lost 55% of its health.

Porygon-Z lost 45% of its health.
Porygon-Z disconnected.
Really nice creativity here.

:toast::toast::toast:
 
haha you guys have got nothing on my team of 6 scarfers, or at least once I can get a good battle with it. this was a pretty fun read btw.

also a bit of a random tidbit but brave bird does more to celery than uturn and ties aren't implemented on shoddy yet, so like, whatever.

certainly an interesting battle, and was made amusing by the all-choice team.

Still, I can't believe someone would run Roserade, Jirachi and Celebi on the same team in this Age of Heatran.
 
Very amusing battle with the commentary and you only using Choice Items. I wanted to try something like that a while ago.

Scarfed Staraptor is great, it used to be a staple in all my teams. However, in the age of Stealth Rock + Sandstorm (+ Recoil on its best move), I always thought that it was too hard to use. Guess I was wrong. Nice warstory and cool team.
