Fire Blast said:
Arena: Plants vs. Zombies
Field Type: Neutral
Complexity: High
Format: Singles

Restrictions: None

Description: We are in the backyard of Plants vs Zombies! There is water in the middle, so all Water-type moves can be freely used. In addition to the regular actions in a round, players will be able to plant different plants that have effects on themselves and their opponent. Before the battle begins, the player PMs 10 of the plants they want to be able to use, along with their team. The ref will display which plants they choose in the OP, as well as the other information.

Every action, the players receive 1 Sun. This is the currency that is used to get plants. Once a certain amount it reached, the Sun can be expended, and a plant will be placed. A maximum of 3 Plants may be placed during a round. Only 1 of a certain plant can be placed each round. Certain plants effect Sun, and more Sun can be obtained by them.

Since the plants cause much damage, all pokemon start with twice as much HP, so that the battle can last a reasonable amount of time.

Below, is a list of plants available. The player must choose 10 that they will be capable of using during the battle.

Name | Effect | Sun Cost
Peashooter | 3 DPA for the opponent | 2 Sun
Sunflower | 1 extra Sun per action | 2 Sun

Lou specified neither abilities nor items, so it'll be your good ol' all abilities/no items/switch=pun format.

I can't un-italics because formatting can be retarded. I'm reffing plant-placing as post-action, after plant damage. Act accordingly.


Houndour ♂ - Ambrocious
Nature: Hasty (Spe +10, Accuracy +13%, Def: -1)
Type: Dark / Fire
Dark Type - Dark STAB; Immunity to all telepathic and telekinetic attacks, better performance in all darkened and especially twilight conditions. Can use any Dark-type attack regardless of Attraction.
Fire Type - Fire STAB; immune to burn, 50% reduction in freeze chance, emit a low glow in dark places, takes additional damage if active open flames are exposed to a water attack. Superior senses in volcanic or brushfire areas.

Abilities:
Early Bird - (Innate) This Pokemon is used to waking up at early hours or operating in low-light conditions and subsequently suffers from sleep status for only half as much time as other Pokemon.
Flash Fire - (Innate) This Pokemon thrives in high temperatures, and takes the energy of any opposing fire attack, nullifies the damage, and uses the additional power to boost its own fire attack’s Base Attack Power by two (2). Self-targeted attacks do not give the boost.
(DW) Unnerve - (Dormant) - (Innate) The Pokemon's presense causes immense tension in the opponent, preventing them from eating a held Berry. Natural Gift may still be used.

Stats:

HP: 90
Atk: Rank 2

Impetuous and inconsiderate, Ambrocious as mindlessly playful and cheery when left idle; begging for attention and play. Only when his playmates are threatened is Ambrocious roused, and when this occurs his demeanour shifts radically; leaving him ruthless and impulsive, acting on emotion alone and without forethought.

Shroomish (Idk yet) (F)

Nature: Adamant
+1 Atk, -1 SpA

Type: Grass

Grass STAB; Immunity to Leech Seed and Worry Seed. 50% reduction in status effect chance of oncoming "powder" attacks. More mobile in areas with strong natural light sources. Superior senses in tall grass and forest areas. Able to use Wrap and Bind without losing focus.

Abilities:
Effect Spore
Type: Can be Disabled
This Pokemon has a stockpile of defensive spores which it realeases on opponents who strike with contact attacks. There is a 10% chance each of poison, paralysis, and sleep. When disabled, the Pokemon's Powder attacks are 10% more accurate.

Poison Heal

Type: Innate
Pokemon with this ability have internal structures that absorb the toxins in poison and uses them to recover two (2) HP/action instead of taking poison damage. When a Pokemon with Poison Heal inflicts Poison on themselves with an attack, it uses up one of their Recovery Moves. If Toxic'd, the Toxic counter will still go up each round and Toxic will do the relevant damage for that round should their ability be disabled.

Quick Feet (DW)
Type: Innate
This Pokemon feels a sense of anxiety when afflicted with a status condition and its speed increases by 50% (x1.5). Although it can still be fully paralyzed, it will not suffer the speed drop.

Houndour opens with a full-intensity Swagger, which doesn't fare well for Shroomish. However, Shroomish still manages to Toxic itself and activate Poison Heal. Houndour then follows with a Will-o-Wisp, which hits Shroomish dead-on. Shroomish is unable to respond, hindered by an epic facepalm. Houndour is able to plant a Pumpkin after the round, but Shroomish is impeded by the confusion and unable to do so (OoC: since confusion, sleep, and w/not occur once per action, I'm assuming that any mon that can't act during an action proper can't plant anything). In the final action of this round, Houndour finally attacks with Fire Blast, dealing a brutal hit to Shroomish. Shroomish avoids striking itself and fires a Leech Seed at Houndour, allowing Shroomish to absorb HP for later. Both parties plant a Peashooter after the attacks, ending the round.

Man, Swagger is strongth. Houndour opens with ANOTHER max-intensity Swagger, but it didn't stop Shroomish from Focus Punching here. Both Peashooters fire away as Houndour plants another Peashooter and Shroomish drops down a Sunflower. Leech Seed continues to drain away as Houndour launches a biscuit-burning Fire Blast. Shroomish thinks long-term, trying to use Toxic but facepalming hard. After Houndour sets down a Sunflower, the final action commences. Houndour shoots an Ember at Shroomish, dealing modest damage as Shroomish snaps out of Confusion and sets up a Sub. Plants fire, Pokemon garden, and the round draws to a close.

Once a devastating attack exchange is completed, Leech Seed wears off and Houndour plants a Chomper. Finally, Houndour launches a Fire Blast as Shroomish falls into the trap, being unable to attack or plant.

This round was extraordinarily short: One Fire Blast, coupled with Houndour's double-Torchwooded Peashooters, was more than enough to knock Shroomish out. Houndour plants a Peashooter for the sake of completion, then the round and the battle ends. Good game, all!
