When Galahad saw Hilda coming out of the Pokeball, he cannot control his mixed feelings and ended up in the battle arena without Avnomke's permission! However, Frosty didn't want another scandal to feed the paparazzi again, so he withdrew Hilda and sent out King Igos. The Revenankh roared at his debut battle - and nearly had his jaw fell right off. He quickly puts it back to place beneath the dessicated wrappings, then proceeded to Hammer and Punch on Galahad.

But despite taking such a beating, Galahad won't stay down! Looks like he is determined to see Hilda one last time! Having Endured the assault, Galahad's love-Roar stunned Igos a little, and in the next moment, Hilda teleportically switches places with her teammate, coming right out to face the Mega-Lucario!!

[Avnomke]

Iron Tail+Extremespeed *3
If Gardevoir is under the effects of a P/E move, then chill and push back
If Gardevoir uses a damaging priority combo, then use Protect and push back
If Gardevoir uses a healing move, then use Iron Tail and push back the fire time and Flash Cannon and push back the second

Now to see how Zt makes this combo into something that requires brain bleach -.-

Relevant Handbook Quotes

One other attribute a combo has is base energy cost. This is the minimum amount of energy the Pokemon needs to execute the combo. If it has less, the combo fails and the Pokemon faints from exhaustion. If the combo is a same-move combo, the base energy cost is the cost of using the move on that action and the following action, with all modifiers like STAB and consecutive use penalty factored in. If the combo is a different-move combo, the base energy cost is the cost of using one move on that action and the other move on the following action, with all modifiers like STAB and applying consecutive use penalty to whichever move (if either) was used on the action prior to the combo. The exception is if either move in the combo states that it requires the full amount of energy to use, like Explosion. In this case, the base energy cost is equal to the combo's total energy cost.

At some point during the battle, someone's going to lose a Pokemon. Sometimes this will mean someone runs out of active Pokemon and has to send in one of their reserve Pokemon. If this is the case, one lot of end-of-action and end-of-round effects like poison damage and Sandstorm damage occurs, and then it's time for anyone with a knocked out Pokemon to swap it out for one on the bench. If all Pokemon on one side has fainted and some Pokemon on the other side have not acted yet, then those Pokemon will still act as normal. If a move one of them uses exclusively targets the other side, then that Pokemon's attack fails and energy is expended.

"I guess I should be thankful."

Chill - Wish - Chill


Lucario can't pay the base energy cost a3.

Galahad is now fully under the thrall of the dominatrix. Realising that her trainer would probably had her KO-ing her new slave as soon as possible, Hilda cunningly manipulated Galahad to flash and slap her with his Iron Tail as Speedily as possible. The Mega-Lucario obliged without question, and dealt so much pain with his lower appendage that that Hilda cried in pure ectascy, Wishing that he could pound her like that again (for an audio recording, please google Ahri Korean LoL on youtube and go to 0:20). Unfortunately, as Galahad rushed at her the second time, he tripped and fell, too exhausted to move as he lay there like a randy drunk. Avnomke had no choice but to recall his Mega-Lucario, and the stage is set for a final stand.

Frosty decides against Av's Togekiss
Av responds where necessary
I reff

 

[Frosty]

tbh I can't shake the feeling that I missed something really important.

Pain Split (Togekiss) - Icy Wind (Togekiss) - Thunderbolt (Togekiss)
IF P/E AND this sub wasn't activated on the action prior THEN Chill
IF Encore A1 THEN Thunderbolt (Togekiss) A1
IF Encore AND Gardevoir's last successful action was Pain Split AND Togekiss is faster AND the second sub doesn't trigger AND this sub wasn't activated on the action prior THEN Dodge

 

[Avnomke]

...No push back?

Protect ~ Thunder Wave ~ Air Slash
come ooon hax

Alexander foiled Hilda's plans of a telepathic invasion, making her Chill out in the applause of the crowds instead of using the sado-masochistic Pain Split again. Then, grabbing a chance to turn the tables, Avnomke had Alexander paralysing Hilda before the cold Winds could take their toll, but Hilda's blown kiss (after putting on the Glacier brand Frosty-Blue lipstick!) threw Alexander's aim off by a hairsbreadth, and Hilda seized the opportunity to strike with a Thunderbolt from the heavens!

And I have no idea what's happened here, but it seems Avnomke has not sacrificed enough Gogoats and Skiddos. That, or Frosty secretly made his whole Fire gym team roast one herd each for the hax gods. Moral of the story: don't ask for hax. You may get what you ask for.

Good Game Avnomke! You played well. I just got lucky on the matchups.

Hoping to see you soon on the battlefield again!

 

[Its_A_Random]

I was a good game and I appreciate the timeliness on all parties.

See you all in HLM 8 which should go up shortly! ^_^
