Well, time to burn off a lot of EN on a suicidal move.

"Uhm, any chance I can just rely on sex appeal while being fully clothed?"

Taunt > Endure > Pain Split
IF Cleaver-Haxorus' Iron Tail lands a critical hit A1, THEN there's likely nothing else to do.

Little bit rushed. No flavor as such. Kind of a boring bout anyway. Haxorus knocks out Gardevoir. End of round.

Action One!

Haxorus used Iron Tail!
RNG-hit: 1277 Yes
RNG-crit: 7215 No
RNG-def: 2693 Yes
[(10+2+2+3)*1.5]+2 = 27.5 damage

[ZhengTann]

Okay, that was an extremely embarassing blunder. Probably one of the reasons Frosty wanted out.
/shamefaced

"This is too good a training ground - these guys got real tough simply by being here."

Gray (Lucario w/ Solar Ray @ Steadfast & Inner Focus): Dual Chop > Ice Punch > Dual Chop
IF Cleaver-Haxorus would use Counter, THEN replace the first two instance Agility [boost], and the third instance with Swords Dance instead.
IF Cleaver-Haxorus would use a damaging Fighting-type move, THEN replace that action with Counter instead.
IF Cleaver-Haxorus would use a damaging Ground-type move, THEN replace that action with Counter instead.

 

[deadfox081]

"This makes for a relatively simple equation. Be very subbing for Counter when ordering first."

Haxorus: Earthquake - Earthquake - Super Power + Super Power

So. Let's talk. If damage beyond KO's is counted, 190.5 damage was dealt this round. In a singles match. That's... damn. Anyway, Lucario counters two really really really big Earthquakes... but then gets taken down by an absurdly damaging combination. Because Haxorus hits a lot harder than I had realized, especially against a fairly weak defensive Pokemon that's just sitting and taking it.

Anyway, with that the gym leader completes the game and defends his badge. Better luck next time, ZhengTann.
