Oh hey kingmidas, Monohm should only have Rank 2 SpD. It won't matter in this match though.

Hi all, and welcome to the ASB Arena for another match! This time, we're looking at kingmidas and newcomer Redew. kingmidas has been away from ASB for some time, and is looking to get back into the game. Redew is just starting out, and only has a few matches under his belt. Both have brought relatively fresh Pokemon: Monohm and Gible respectively. Just looking at that matchup, it seems to be fairly neutral, but kingmidas might have the edge due to experience. We'll see~

To start off the match, Gible senses his opponent is using a strong attack and opts to Protect, throwing up a barrier! Good timing, as Monohm does use Dragon Pulse, which does no damage. Gible does expend a lot of energy there, but Dragon Pulse would have done quite a bit of damage, so it is worth it.

It appears Gible isn't the only one with tricks though! Monohm uses Magnet Rise to start floating above the ground. This should protect it from Gible's seismic attacks, nullifying Gible's strongest edge in the matchup. However, Gible doesn't go in for a seismic attack. It start shifting the sand with Sand Tomb, creating a small sandstorm to trap Monohm with. Unfortunately it looks like the attack just barely missed Monohm! Still, neither Pokemon has taken damage yet, so it could only be a minor setback.

Monohm goes on the offensive again, this time shooting out a powerful Hydro Pump! The attack scores a hit, though it is weakened due to Gible's part-Dragon typing. Gible tries to use Earthquake to damage Monohm, but due to Magnet Rise the attack misses. It does manage to almost throw me into the water though!

Monohm has a slight edge now, from Magnet Rise and Sand Tomb's miss. However, kingmidas is up to order first this round. Can he hold onto this lead, or will Redew overtake him?

kingmidas continues to attack, having Monohm blast Gible another Dragon Pulse. Redew seems to have given up on straight up defense, and opts for an alternative route. Having Gible use a great Sandstorm+Sand Attack combination, it really hampers Monohm's aim! If he gets lucky enough, he just might be able to turn things around... but it's all up to lady luck! The Sandstorm rips into Monohm (because it doesn't have Overcoat yet >_<), giving it the first taste of damage for it this match.

Monohm seems undeterred, and puffs out a Dragon Breath. Unfortunately it doesn't make contact, as there is too much sand in its eyes! Gible is too tired to move, but it appears content that its strategy is paying off.

Still, Monohm continues the offense. It fires another Dragon Pulse..... but this misses too! This could be the start of a turnaround! Gible takes the opportunity to whip up another Sand Tomb. This time it hits, and looks like it scored a critical hit due to all the sand whipping about! Redew couldn't have gotten any luckier here. Now, Monohm is battered about by both the Sandstorm and the Sand Tomb. I think Monohm is in the lead, but suffered a serious loss in momentum here. The Magnet Rise is about to wear off too, but I can't tell what will happen next (I can hardly even see from all the sand tbh, I need Go-Goggles).

If Magnet Rise is up A3, use Protect instead.

Gible gets the jump on Monohm somehow, and surprises it with a Scary Face. Monohm looks afraid and is quivering... but hmm, it looks like it's actually charging up for a combination attack? Oh, it fights past the unfavorable conditions Gible has set up and clears it all away with Rain Dance+Twister! The combination is unfortunately Water-type and thus doesn't do all that much damage to Gible, but it could be the start of a turnaround. The sandstorm is now gone, replaced with a heavy rain.Monohm does still have to deal with the sand in its eyes though, and the whirling Sand Tomb still chipping away at it. Additionally, the Magnet Rise Monohm had just wore off, leaving it totally vulnerable.

Now faster, Gible unleashes another Earthquake on the now grounded Monohm! It shakes everything, and Monohm is definitely battered by it. Monohm tries to float above the ground again, but is just too exhausted from the previous combination.

Taking complete advantage of the situation, Gible sets off another EarthquakeI'm gonna die here please help me. Monohm looks severely weakened now, but instead of fighting back it just sits there to Chill? Has kingmidas given up, or did he miscalculate? The Sand Tomb around Monohm finally subsides, but things don't look good for it. It's open to KO from Gible's strongest attack, and kingmidas is up to order first. Things definitely look grim for it...
