I love weather; Sun for days
Though I do feel bad that we are so early into the Scylant testing (heh today was the first day) but I haven't been battling too much in the past, besides just destroying everyone but Mag in Ubers. I started to play some standard CAP today because I was very interested in what the CAPs by themselves would cause the metagame to do. Scylant has been nerfed in the past because it was simply "too good" and after a few matches I could see why the community would think that. The Tail Glow sweeper set is quite dangerous and if you do not handle it correctly it could leave you at a 6-0 loss. Well this match was against ReyScarFace and it really had me on the edge of my chair until the very very end. Oh as I have just seen Watchmen I wrote this how Rorschach would have in his journal. Just by the by.

Gen. Empoleon's team:
ReyScarFace's Team:
So as you can see Rey seems to play a very offensive team. It is either set around Lucario, Salamence or Scylant setting up for a sweep. With Lucario taking care of special walls, and Scylant taking out most physical walls, and with Salamence just being a fucking pain, it is hard to cover all of your bases when up against him. I decided to enter the battle with more of a balanced team, trying to be able to force switches with Tyrantiar and cause chaos with Pursuit. All waiting until Luacrio can finally get a Swords Dance in and sweep.

ReyScarface sent out Starmie.
Gen. Empoleon sent out Jirachi.
Start out just looking at the screen.
I question the lead which I rarely see.
CAP is known for the Starmie lead, but the exact item of the monster seems to have escaped the trenches of my mind.
I think Trick is the safest move I can do at the moment.
I move my cusor over to the move, I click.
I pray.
ReyScarface switched in Swampert.
Jirachi used Trick.
Jirachi obtained Leftovers!
Swampert obtained Choice Scarf!
: 100%
: 100% --->
: 100%
Rey decided that keeping Starmie in is a poor choice. Swampert comes in and has my Choice Scarf now. I think he is going to do Earthquake. He would be locked into the move. Latias can come in more easily then. I keep Jirachi in, hitting Swampert with Psychic for a nice portion of his health.
---
Jirachi used Psychic.
Swampert lost 34% of its health.
Swampert used Stealth Rock.
Pointed stones float in the air around the foe's team!
: 100%
: 66%
Swampert lays rocks down. I am amused. He has to switch now. Starmie is obvious answer, resistant to Psychic-type attacks, can hit Jirachi hard with Water-type attacks. I use Thunderbolt, safe choice, Swampert will not stay in.
---
ReyScarface switched in Starmie.
Jirachi used Thunderbolt.
It's super effective!
Starmie lost 86% of its health.
: 100%
: 66% --->
: 14%
Goes according to my plan. Starmie is clumsily drifting in and out. Starmie has no more use to Rey. Probably decides sacrificing it would be a good plan. Use Thunderbolt again, still a safe move.
---
Starmie used Hydro Pump.
Jirachi lost 61% of its health.
Starmie lost 10% of its health.
Jirachi used Thunderbolt.
It's super effective!

6-5 Gen. Emp
Life Orb I say to the ears of my empty room.
Jirachi has taken extensive damage thanks to that hit. Really of no use to me now anymore. I decide best choice is to most likely sacrifice Jirachi for another pokemon.

ReyScarface switched in Syclant.
Syclant used Earth Power.
It's super effective!
Jirachi lost 45% of its health.

5-5 Tie
Jirachi faints.
The crowd cheers.
The pokeball opens.
Jirachi is inside.
Scylant is a problem for my team. Latias will be OHKOed. Everything else sustains heavy damage. Tyranitar can boost his Special Defence and quickly knock out Scylant. Tyranitar also provides damage through sand.
---
Tyranitar's Sand Stream whipped up a sandstorm!
A sandstorm brewed!
Pointed stones dug into Tyranitar.
Tyranitar lost 12% of its health.
Pursuit that coward Tyranitar I think to myself.
Pursuit, one of the best moves this generation. Heavily damages fleeing opponents, how often people switch out too.
Tyranitar used Pursuit.
Syclant lost 90% of its health.
ReyScarface's Syclant fainted.
The sandstorm rages.

Seems Rey thought I would use Stone Edge. Hit Scylant with powered up Pursuit. Enters the pokeball unconcious. Stays there for rest of match. Tyranitar is locked into Pursuit. Easily set up on now.
---
ReyScarface switched in Lucario.
Lucario. Knight in shining armor. Here to defeat my dragon. Cannot lose Tyranitar just yet.
No.
Gyarados can switch in. hm. Stealth Rocks on field, take heavy damage once switched. I can Rest off damage.
Gen. Empoleon switched in Gyarados.
Gyarados's intimidate cut Lucario's attack!
Pointed stones dug into Gyarados.

Gyarados intimidates Lucario. Lucario cannot do much to harm bulky Gyarados. Can safely Dragon Dance. Boost average Speed stat. Maybe can sweep.

Gyarados used Dragon Dance.
Gyarados's attack was raised.
Gyarados's speed was raised.
The sandstorm rages.
: 75% + 1 Atk/Spe
: 100% + 1 Atk --->
: 94%
Rotom-oven comes in. No leftover recovery, must be carrying a Choice item. Tyranitar can come in and faint it with Dark-type move. Do not want to lose Gyarados just yet. May need him later for powerful hitter. Tyranitar is ebst pokemon for the job. Switch him in.

: 75% + 1 Atk/Spe --->
: 53%
: 88%
Tyranitar loses nice portion of health. Can take one or two more. Crunch or Pursuit? Pursuit catches fleeing victim, Crunch can hit incoming pokemon, or Rotom. Rotom causes issues for Gyarados. Needs to be removed. Pursuit will faint sweeper Rotom even if it stays in.

5-3 Gen. Emp
Rotom is gone. Silence. Dark. Complete. Can only wonder what Rey will switch in. Swampert, excellent Tyranitar counter. Not so effective with Choice Scarf. Unseen pokemon is what is probably next.
---
ReyScarface switched in Salamence.
Salamence's intimidate cut Tyranitar's attack!
Stupid. Walked into that. Salamence gives team hell. No true counter to it. Weaken with Pursuit, hope it carries Life Orb. Whittle down health bar. Finish off with Lucario.
Salamence used Dragon Dance.
Salamence's attack was raised.
Salamence's speed was raised.
Tyranitar used Pursuit.
Salamence lost 30% of its health.
The sandstorm rages.
: 29%
: 64% + 1 Atk/Spe
Dragon Dance. Pursuit dealt good portion of damage. Salamence can sweep team easily. Maybe will use Earthquake, finish off Tyranitar. Switch to Rotom, avoid Earthquake, hit back with dibilitating status.

Pointed stones dug into Rotom-w.
Rotom-w lost 12% of its health.

My Lucario loses the match. Later find out Rey runs Jolly. Never stood a chance. Afraid that Latias will not be able to kill Lucario with Draco Meteor or Surf. Lucario kills with Crunch. Decide Gyarados can win game for me. Dragon Dance. Take out Lucario. Take out weakened Salamence.
