Round 5 is upon us in this battle of two exhausted pokemon! One wonders just how many times these pokemon will chill during this match? (Seriously, no amount was specified..) Pwem begins the match by safely chilling out behind his substitute, gaining back precious energy. Darkbone seems to agree with this situation as he also chills in this siesta of a round.
Looking serious and ready for some action, Pwem lunges in Darkbone's direction, force-ing its palm right into the chest of Darkbone's clone, dealing a good chunk of damage. With still the smallest amount of health left in his clone, Darkbone relaxes and chills again to regain even more energy.
It seems as though Woodchuck wants Pwem to not over exert himself too much this round, as he orders Pwem to chill again behind the substitute and regain energy. Seemingly not noticing that there's still a clone on the other side of the field, Darkbone spits out some eerie-purple will-o-wisp in the clone's direction, but misses horribly. Not that it would've mattered anyway.

And we're back! Here comes round 6 and we're chugging along to the climax of this battle.
Darkbone begins the match by being very sneaky, jumping into his shadow to launch a surprise first strike at Pwem's clone, which shatters at the impact! Woodchuck however seemed to be expecting that as he orders Pwem to make a substitute clone (15 HP) to quickly replace the lost one!
Now safely behind the close, Pwem decides to take another chill pill and regain some energy. It seems as though Metal Bagon was expecting to take another hit however, as he ordered Darkbone to make another (15 HP) substitute. Since he already had one up, this tactic from Darkbone seems to have failed!
Now wanting to go on the offensive, Pwem lunges and forces his palm into Darkbone's clone, destroying it in the process! It seems Metal Bagon was one action too early! Darkbone proceeds to dig underneath the ground, and emerges to strike Pwem's clone for significant damage!

OK because of consectutive move use that riolu will fiant after two hi jump kicks so I can use that time to chill.
So just chill x3 as no chill limit has been specified.

WHOA, wait a second. I checked yesterday and your moves were like spamming substitutes or something.
idk if you're allowed to change like that?
I have a screenshot if you want proof.
but I guess it really doesn't matter as the ref hasn't reffed yet
so not to be whiny but i'd like to know if it matters that he changed, and if it doesn't, then carry on :)
As long as your opponent hasn't moved and if the ref hasn't reffed (obviously) then you are allowed to change your actions. One of the many benefit's of going second in my opinion and I have always thought that this was legal (I did make a stuff up because of this once but that was because I couldn't see a second page) and I didn't actually press the post button, I wrote it up but then had to leave and when I came back my actions were posted (I have siblings). So in short
EDIT: At least we gave BiGGiE an extra day to ref!
We should go with this.woodchuck said:

Round 7 begins and one of these pokemon will not make it to the next round! Let's find out who?
Pwem begins the action by kicking with a blaze-ing fury right at Darkbone! Darkbone responds by... just chilling?! It appears as though Darkbone has learned to "turn the other cheek" and is simply taking a beating with passive resistance.
Enraged by this and wanting a real fight, Pwem goes to launch another blaze kick, but collapses due to exhaustion! It seems as though Darkbone has emerged victorious!

Chugging right along to round 8 of this fantastic battle! What will Woodchuck's new monster bring to the table? Let's find out!
Starmory follows in Pwem's footsteps by first setting up a substitute clone of itself (15 HP) while Darkbone chills to regain some energy for a final assault!
In a desperation move, Darkbone jumps into his shadow, sneaks up to Starmory's clone and delivers a hard faint attack combination move, which shatters the newly created clone! Starmory unfazed by the attack, pumps out a powerful blast of hydro goodness right at Darkbone for a significant chunk of damage!
Hearing its trainer shout out "FINISH HIM!" Starmory somehow gathers a large amount of electricity within its core and sends a thundering beam straight at Darkbone who is cooling down from his last attack! With a direct hit, Darkbone is knocked out!

Could someothing have missed. Any KFC would be begging to be KOed so I'll send out my Dragonair that is a Dragonite but it evolved in another battle so it is only a Dragonair!
Yes you are. OK, why does my Dragonair not have Substitute or protect. Wait, from my last battle on my island I remember diving into the water to evade attack's. Your see where this is going, right.
Extreme Speed - Dragon Dance - Swim out to sea to evade Blizzard
PS: Remember Dragonair's Dream World ability, it should be helpful for me this round.

EDIT: No but it can swim out to sea.
Ok, here's the calcs. Just a note, I interpreted the "swim out to sea" move as a dodge. Also, as Dragonair is now in water, and is shown to have strong mobility in water, I will give +1 evasion while in the water. If you do not agree, let me hear your argument and I will review with DA about how to approach this.
Action 1:
Dragonair uses [critical hit] Extremespeed for (8+3+3)=14 damage and 6 energy (To crit<=1; 1, Hit)
Staryu uses (15 HP) Substitute for 12 energy
Action 2:
Staryu uses Minimize for 12 energy (+2 Evasion PERM)
Dragonair uses Dragon Dance for 7 energy (+1 Atk, 70*1.5=105 Speed) [4 actions?]
Action 3:
Dragonair swims out to sea to try to avoid the Blizzard (Dodge command= [105 Speed-98 Speed]/5=1.4~1 point accuracy reduction] 70-1=69 +22 accuracy boost from Staryu's nature = 91% accurate Blizzard) for 5 energy; gains +1 Evasion while in water.
Staryu uses Blizzard for (12+1.5)*1.5=20.25~20 damage, 8 energy (To hit<=91; 5, hit) (To freeze<=10; 14, no) (To crit<=1; 14, no)
Summary:
Staryu: 46 HP, 39 energy, +2 Evasion PERM
Dragonair: 80 HP, 83 energy, +1 ATK, 105 Spe for 2 rounds, +1 Evasion while in water
Dragonair uses [critical hit] Extremespeed for (8+3+3)=14 damage and 6 energy (To crit<=1; 1, Hit)

Staryu uses Blizzard for (12+1.5)*1.5=20.25~20 damage, 8 energy (To hit<=91; 5, hit) (To freeze<=10; 14, no) (To crit<=1; 14, no)
Summary:

Thunder Wave - Thunder - Hyper Beam
SUB: If Thunder Wave misses on the first action replace Hyper Beam with Thunder Wave instead.
Also, I don't think minimize is PERM and I would like some proof that it is thanks.
