Arena: the Colosseum. Yes, the one in Rome. If the emperor (ref) deems the battle too uneventful, wild pokemon may be released from their cages in order to add some oomph to the fight.

There we go. We find ourselves in the centre of possibly the greatest empire the world has ever known. It is a festival in the height of the power of the Roman Empire, and the empire has arranged for a rare treat: a doubles Pokemon battle in the Colloseum, the greatest Amphitheatre that the empire has (or at least the greatest reasonably robust one :)). Today the battlers are iiMKUltra and LupusAter, and they are each being allowed to use four Pokemon. However, they should watch out: if at any point the emporer decides it is getting a bit slow (highly likely), he might decide to unleash a few more competitors into the ring, and who knows what he might call upon. So, with that out of the way, LupusAter can start off the match by releasing his first two Pokemon!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And thus the battle proper starts in the greatest amphitheatre of all time. The emperor gives a signal, and LupusAter begins the proceedings by releasing Fenris the Houndoom and Fafnir the totodile. iiMKUltra resonds with Mysterio the Mienfoo and Carcinus the Krabby, leaving us finally with a battle on our hands. Fenris the Houndoom starts off the match, easily outspeeding the other Pokemon and running down the centre of the Colloseum. It builds up static electricity as it goes, and finally loads up a great voltage into its mouth, clearly aiming for Carcinus the Krabby. However, Mienfoo jumps into its way at the last moment, is on the point of faking out Fenris when he notices Krabby ready to Leer. He stops, obediant as always, leaving Fenris available to Thunder Fang Carcinus after the run-up, bowling Carcinus over. Mysterio instead takes the opportunity to Taunt Fafnir so that he can't use Leer, and the cat calls and laughs from the other side in fact stop Fafnir from not attacking for quite some time. However, Carcinus is stil available to manouevre rocks from up around the edges of the stadium from afar, and eventually cause a giant Rock Slide down onto Fafnir! This leaves Fafnir crumpled under the weight of huge rocks, and unfortunately the power of the rocks falling also stopped it from leering anyway because it too flinched. It just had enough time to crawl out from under the deluge in time for the next action, but unfortunately it missed out completely on a chance to attack for a bit.

Fenris then turns around because it barrelled so far out of the way under its own momentum, and this time gathers a large ball of white flames together, aiming at Mysterio. Mysterio panics, and tries to cat-call and enrage Fenris to stop it acting so passively and to force it to attack, but Fenris is just too much faster than Mysterio, and lets off the ghostly Will-o-wisp at Mysterio, who gets badly burned by the flames, before it can finally get through to Fenris. However, it quickly manages to Taunt Fenris after it gets burned, leaving him unable to attack for some time. Carcinus then quickly follows up by jumping across to move up to Fafnir, and uses a powerful Brick Break on him, knocking him back into the pile of rubble behind him. However, this time he manages to keep ahold of himself well enough to let off an attack, which ends up as another Rock Slide using the next section of ceiling, and toppling down on Carcinus just as it did on Fafnir before. Carcinus too gets bricked in by the rocks, and finally gets out, leaving all four Pokemon standing almost at the four corners of the stadium, waiting for another furious bout of attacking to start.

Fenris again takes his queue, and barrells forward to Sucker Punch Carcinus. It moves up close, and just seeing the intent to attack, lashes out, and tries to draw Carcinus in a strong grip up close to him in an attempt to block any oncoming attacks with him. Mysterio in fact looks like she is going to take her chances, and focuses hard enough to create a pulse of energy, which travels through the air towards Fenris. The Focus Blast travels rapidly towards Fenris, and it travels just past Carcinus to score a direct hit, knocking Fernis off Carcinus and down onto the ground. This leaves Carcinus free from the grab to again cause a giant Rock Slide to fall down onto Fafnir, but this time Fafnir has no trouble clawing out of the rubble to Chip Away at Carcinus in return, probing for a weak spot and finally finding one to attack. This leaves the participants all relatively even, although the Emperor is beginning to look slightly impatient: if the fight doesn't pick up soon, who knows what might come charging into the arena!

So iiMKUltra and I were on IRC before Smogon went down and we had this conversation (but don't read it. I just thought you might like to know who is responsible for the below):



[23:15] <Athenodoros> Actually, I might think up something really bad for the emperor to send into the ring
[23:15] <Athenodoros> That would be fun
[23:15] <iiMKUltra> can it be a virizion please
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> and have it use close combat on his houndoom
[23:16] <Athenodoros> lol
[23:16] <Athenodoros> lol
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> and leaf storm or w/e grass move on his totodile
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> then miss both of my pokemon
[23:16] <Athenodoros> Only if Ho-oh can Brave Bird Mysterio
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> that seems rather fair
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> damn it no
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> actually
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> yeah i'll take that
[23:16] <Athenodoros> And then Kyogre can Water Spout your team
[23:16] <Athenodoros> ^
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> hmm
[23:16] <iiMKUltra> tempting, tempting
[23:17] <Athenodoros> So basically, everyone dies
[23:17] <Athenodoros> Instantly
[23:17] <Athenodoros> Actually
[23:17] <Athenodoros> going with the Kyogre idea
[23:17] <Athenodoros> I'll start the update​

And so after a (very) extended break, it looks like we are finally going to get in a proper update. However, just as everyone gets back to the stadium after the break, they can clearly see the emperor passing around instructions to attendants: surely this can only mean something ridiculous for our participants? We'll have to wait until the end of the round to find out, becase it looks like it will take some time to make it all happen. At any rate, the participants release their Pokemon again and they are all ready and rearing to go after their long wait, and Fafnir looks so psyched that he jettisons himself across the arena at almost lightning-speed. He rockets over to the other side of the field coated in water, and eventually the Aqua Jet hits Mysterio, so that they collide and are both knocked in different directions.Next, Fenris barrells off looking like there is no stopping him after his lengthy break, and it runs straight after Fafnir, this time to attack Carcinus. It once again works up a huge voltage while charging towards Carcinus, so that by the time it gets over there are huge arks of lightning moving around him as he runs. Finally, he gets up close to Carcinus and gathers all of the electricity into his mouth, before delivering a huge Thunder Fang into Carcinus again. The energy curses through Carcinus, hurting him badly, but leaving him ready to return powerful attacks back at Fenris, who is now up close and vulnerable for a bit. Mysterio makes use of this, turning around towards Carcinus and Fenris before stopping to concentrate for a time. It waits, focussing intently, before letting off another pulse in the air towards Fenris. However, and despite the close range in comparison to the size of the arena, the Focus Blast misses completely, only forcing Fenris aside because of the blast of air pushed out to the sides. It passes straight out past Fenris, and eventually hits the ground several yards away and causes a huge explosion, knocking up sand and leaving a hole in the ground, leaving debris in the form of large rocks all around the area. Carcinus now has the opportunity to attempt to land a few blows on Fenris, and starts to glow brightly as it uses strange power to maneouvre the rocks from around the explosion towards Fenris. They gather pace as they go, and by the time the Rock Slide hits Fenris, they are travelling at a huge speed, and completely bowl over Fenris. The fire in Fenris' body causes it to be hit particularly hard by the rocks too, and it is left off to the side of the arena. Fafnir looks too tired by his earlier effort to come up with another attack after Carcinus as it usually would, so all four Pokemon pause for a while to gather breath.​

However, they do not pause for long, and Fenris looks like it is out for revenge for the beating taken last round. It picks itself up off the ground, and starts to run again towards Carcinus. This time however, the sparks from last time are noticably absent, and instead it gathers shadows from around the stadium out in front of it, and slowly it can be seen that he is creating a giant pair of dark jaws out in front of him, and he runs like this towards Carcinus. As he reaches his target, the jaws slowly Crunch down on his target, again paining Carcinus, and remain clamped around him as Fenris runs away to further from iiMKUltra's end of the stadium. They slowly evapourate, but Carcinus looks like he has been shaken slightly by the ordeal, but manages to stay in conrol of himself. Mysterio instead jumps in to help his team-mate, and runs after Fenris. He ends up near the other side of the field when Fenris stops running, but manages to jump on top of him and maneouvre his weight so that he can Vital Throw Fenris back towards the less atheltic Carcinus. He gets thrown dozens of yards across the stadium, and lands in a heap near the hole from the explosion before. This gives Carcinus the opportunity to move up to Fenris while it is still down after the last attack, and chop as though to Brick Break on the middle of Fenris' body, delivering a huge blow which hurts Fenris a lot. It looks like Fenris is really taking a beating out there now that iiMKUltra's Pokemon have started to gang up on it, but fortunately it does still have the back-up of Fafnir, who again moves slowly towards Mysterio to attack. He coats his whole arm in an icy layer, and slowly draws it back, covered in even more ice, and delivers a devastating Ice Punch to Mysterio, and it looks like it is so cold that it almost completely freezes Mysterio. As it is, it does cover a fair portion of Mysterio's midsection in ice, which means that it will probably be quite sluggish for the rest of the round. This leaves every done for a minute again, and slowly all of the contestants ready their last attacks.​

Fenris jumps up again, ready to let loose one final attack for the round. It once again runs towards Carcinus, sparks arcing around its body, only to once again draw them up into its mouth. It bites down hard on Carcinus again, but again it is not too adversely affected by the jolt of electricity in the Thunder Fang and merely concentrates on the upcoming attacks. Mysterio continues the end of the round, by again letting off a huge Focus Blast at Fenris from across the stadium. The wave of energy moves rapidly towards Fenris, and try as it might to move out of the way it this time gets a square hit, knocking it out of the air where it tried to dodge the blast and down onto the ground in a heap. Then, to add insult to injury, Carcinus too moves towards Fenris, and again directs some of the pile of rocks from the explosion towards Fenris. However, first he stops. Fenris is looking like he is only just holding on to consciousness, and he certainly won't survive another blow. The rocks levitate around Carcinus as all eyes turn to the emperor, who will determine the fate of Fenris. The croud begins to shout out, and after a bit of deliberation, the emperor shoots out his hand from the arm rest to reveal his thumb protruding up into the air. The crowd cheers, and the Carcinus directs the huge number of rocks towards Fenris, who is completely crushed by the Rock Slide and passes out cold, unable to fight any more. Finally, the round finishes up with Fafnir going for one last-ditch effort before LupusAter releases another Pokemon. He moves up to Carcinus like Fenris, seemingly trying to avenge his team-mate, and releases a Superpower against Carcinus the likes of which we have not yet seen, which knocks Carcinus head over heels, even while Fafnir loses concentration for a while and has both his offensive and defensive prowess lowered for a time. This leaves everything in the round to be done, and so the round ends. However, there is still the matter of what the emperor arranged for at the start of the round. The attendants are swarming around the stadium, and no one can quite see what is happening over in one of the further corners. Finally, though, you can see a monstrous figure moving out into the arena. Slowly clouds begin to gather, as Kyogre the King of the Sea comes out from the reserves beneath the stadium. A huge torrent of rain ensues, and to make matters worse Kyogre lets off a huge Water Spout around the arena, drenching everything and creating huge areas of water, including filling up the large hole left earlier with water to make a large pond. The stadium is completely transformed, so that now there are large areas of water around pathways of ground around the stadium, and it is now absolutely pouring. Kyogre watches on, curious about the tiny Pokemon it sees beneath it. It looks passive at the moment, but you certainly shouldn't try bothering it, because it could turn nasty at any moment! This leaves us with the end of the round, and it is with LupusAter to release a new Pokemon. It will certainly be interesting to see next round after this unexpected series of events!

Carci: Use X-Scissor on Kyogre then point to Servine. Kyogre should believe you as water pokemon don't attack each other and water types hate grass types, so Kyogre should attack Servine. An Ice Beam would be nice ^_^

Myst: Taunt Servine, then Focus Miss - Vital Throw Totodile.
 
Nidhogg, murderize the Krabby with a Leaf Storm, then Leaf Blade and Aerial Ace on Mienfoo.
Fafnir, Waterfall, Dragon Dance, Waterfall on Mienfoo.

First off, about iiMKUltra's dubiously legal commands which fortunately will not make a difference this round: I am very willing for creativity, and in fact I put that Kyogre there just so you could have some fun with it, but getting the legendary God of all the oceans to attack on a whim at one of your enemies seems a bit broken.

So we left off last round with a hugely climactic release of the legendary god of the oceans, Kyogre. It has turned the whole arena into almost another ocean, and thanks to the ingenuity of the romans and their building it is going nowhere fast. It is also absolutely bucketing down on the contestants and their Pokemon, and it looks like it is only going to get worse. It isn't even going to end soon. Nonetheless, with the only Fire-type removed from the field, we look set to have almost a naval battle in the colosseum, especially as the waters rise further! Anyway, this new fight is begun by the newcomer, Nidhogg the Servine. It summons leaves from around the stadium, and they twirl around the whole stadium, picking up more and more as time goes on. Finally, as Servine moves towards Carcinus, they all move around and start to move with Servine, following it and finally outstripping it. They rush in front of Servine, and finally as he pulls up close, Servine's Leaf Storm crashes into Carcinus. The combined blow of all of the leaves blows it far away, back crashing into the wall. It begins to get up, but the hit was so hard that it was finally finished, and is completely unable to continue the battle. He slumps by the side, leaving his team-mate Mysterio unfortunately alone and exposed for quite some time. However, Msterio takes the initiative to try to make the best of a bad situation, and begins to cat-call again, this time directing it at Servine. Servine is in a very good state of mind at the moment, and after the early kill is almost of too sound mind to be taken in by the trick, but eventually succumbs to the Taunt, leaving it incapable of using moves which don't directly attack for a while. Meanwhile, Fafnir is using some of the water which was brought in by Kyogre to create a huge torrent of water, which now bears down on Mysterio. It compounds with all of the rain in the air to create a huge mass, which pounds down over Mysterio, completely crushing it under the force of the Waterfall. It cripples Mysterio, who takes the blow badly, and struggles to get back to its feet.​

However, it manages, even while being beaten down constantly by the rain. However, Nidhogg the Servine now runs towards him with some of the leaves from before, fashioning the leaves into effective swords along the way. It runs quickly, looking like it could be about to just bowl over Mysterio completely. It hits hard, and as the Leaf Blade strikes Mysterio, it wobbles a bit under the force of the punishment it is suffering at the hands of all of its opponents. It just manages to get up, but it looks like it doesn't have it in it to take another of these attacks, and puts everything it has into a final Focus Blast aimed at Fafnir. The blast tears through the stadium, and despite the exhaustion in Mysterio and the attempt to dance out of the way of Fafnir, it scores a direct hit and blows Fafnir back. However, while still somparatively healthy, Fafnir has no real trouble pulling himself back up again, and instead of finishing off the nearby Mysterio begins a strange and slightly surreal dance. It moves swiftly around the stadium, shaking and twisting in an eerie way, and slowly boosting its attacking ablities with what slowly becomes recognisable as a Dragon Dance. It slowly cools down after the dance, but it looks ready to finish off the battle quickly, envigorated as it is by the powers of its mystical dance.​

This leaves it on Nidhogg to finally finish off Mysterio. After another brief consultation with the Emperor, it jumps up and moves into its final attack. It rushes Mysterio, who is now too weak to move properly, and jumps up briefly, only to crash down on top of Mysterio in an Aerial Ace attack, which hits it hard enough to send it flying over towards where Carcinus now lies unconscious. The two of them lie slumped against the wall, and slowly iiMKUltra brings them back to their Pokeballs. It is now up to him to release his final two Pokemon, on which all of his hopes for the fight now rest. In addition, the emperor seems not to be ordering anything out from the doors this round. Apparently two Knock Outs in one round are enough for now, meaning that the fiel will stay largely unchanged going into the next round!​

At the end of the last round, Carcinus and Mysterio were left discarded, off to the side of the colosseum. iiMKUltra, before in what looked like a strong position, now is left with just two Pokemon to try to salvage the match, and as he calls back the unconscious Carcinus and Mysterio, he pulls out two more Pokeballs, the Pokemon within which are his last hopes. He releases out Belladonna the Gothorita and Vulcan the Pignite, who take their positions on MK's side of the field, ready for a fight. Nidhogg once again starts off the fight, once again bringing together leaves and such from around the stadium to prepare a Leaf Blade. It runs over to start attacking the new pair, making straight for Belladonna, to start bring down these new foes. It lands a blow on Belladonna, which hurts it, but suddenly both Belladonna and Vulcan move as one past Belladonna, and move to start attacking Fafnir. They move across the arena, and surround Fafnir, cutting off escape routes. Then, they both move at the same time: Belladonna surrounds itself with electricity, and as it crackles around her Fafnir retreats slightly, only to come face-to-face with Vulcan, who is running full pelt at her from the other direction. Vulcan carries on with a Wild Charge into Fafnir, which knocks it back towards Belladonna, who lets off her fully-charged Thunder Wave at her, to paralyze him completely, and he staggers back under the force of all of the attacks. He then tries to react, moving towards Vulcan with his huge volume of water again, but just as he gets towards her, he stops completely, because the electricity still coursing through his body after the wave of thunder from Belladonna is stopping him from moving at all. This leaves him helpless, stuck between the two opponents bearing down on him, and with his partner far away on the other side of the field.

In responce, and seeing the plight that his team-mate is in, Nidhogg moves up and barrells over to the area that the rest of them are fighting in. He runs over, again trying to gather up momentum to try to knock Vulcan away from his team-mate, and at the last moment jumps up to crash down on Vulcan in an Aerial Ace. The sudden attack from above takes Vulcan by surprise, and he staggers backwards, heading dangerously close to the huge legendary Pokemon serving as a backdrop to the small fight. However, she and Belladonna again move as one, moving quickly towards Fafnir once again. Again, they crowd around Fafnir, and this time Belladonna moves slightly faster, once again building up potential for a while before launching off a giant Thunderbolt, which passes through the rain and strikes Fafnir, adding to the electricity still coursing through Fafnir from before, and knocking it back to Vulcan. Then, as Fafnir moves closer, Vulcan takes the chance to Arm Thrust out towards Fafnir twice, knocking it back the other way each time and hurting it. It again tries to attack back, this time trying to claw at Belladonna with shadows, but again it is stopped dead by the electricity, leaving it stuck again between the two Pokemon who are just ganging up on it.

Finally, Nidhogg tries once more to knock away one of the opponents from his partner. He jumps up again and Slams into Belladonna, knocking it too back towards Kyogre. Belladonna seems to be annoyed by this, and so stops the endless attacks on Fafnir and moves on to Belladonna. She sumons up one final wave of electricity, and after leaving it for a while, lets off a Thunder Wave towards Nidhogg, which, while not hurting her, also paralyses her as much as it did Fafnir. Simultaneously, however, Vulcan continues the attack on Fafnir and moves back into another Wild Charge, throwing his body at Fafnir as hard as he can and knocking him back, away from Kyogre. This time, Fafnir tries to respond with one huge waterfall to make up for lost time, but again can't quite pull it together. He tries to strike Vulcan with the blow, but suddenly collapses, utterly spent after a long match. The last blow from Vulcan beat him, and he now just can't continue. This leaves him unable to battle, which means that LupusAter will now have to release his final Pokemon to match up with iiMKUltra's. This leaves the round finished, but it does seem that the emperor is looking a bit bored once again with only one Knock Out so late in the round, and everyone can see him gesturing around the whole stadium. It looks like something huge is going to come up in around one rounds time, and you will certainly have some fun with that!​

And so we begin what looks like it might be the penultimate round of out little battle. All four Pokemon look ready and rearing to go, all looking reasonably fresh and ready to duke it out for their trainers. All around the stadium the crowd roars and cheers for their favourites, and the atmosphere is as electric as Belladonna's attacks against Fafnir last round. This round begins off with Belladonna and Vulcan moving together again, this time towards Thrym to gang up again. Once again, Vulcan starts off the combo with some powerful Arm Thrusts out at Thrym, bashing him once more back towards her partner, and she is already charging up another huge Thunder Wave to fire at Thrym. She swirles the lightning around her, and finally fires it off towards Thrym... and it doesn't do anything. Thrym is in fact so in touch with the ground that even with the rain it can't be paralysed, and the opportunity goes much to waste. This gives Thryme the opportunity to strike back, and in the middle of the pair it gets down and moves the ground deep below them, causing a huge Earthquake around him and making the ground shift unpleasently. All three of the other Pokemon are thrown around by the seismic waves passing around the arena, and, although Nidhogg avoids the worst of the damage due to its distance from the others, they all get hurt by the attack. This only leaves Nidhogg, who takes advantage of the small disruption due to the earthquake to power across to where his opponents are still being attacked by a dying earthquake. He runs over to Nidhogg, jumping up and crashing down on him once the earthquake has finished, knocking him back a long way with the Aerial Ace.

Next, both of iiMKUltra's Pokemon once again gather around Thrym, looking to gang up once again. Belladonna is closer, so she lets off a Psycho Shock at Thrym, launching it with psychic energy over towards Vulcan, so that it can attack while it is mid-flight. However, Thrym takes the opportunity to Dragon Dance, and the weird fluctuations and twists involved in that dance mean that when Vulcan start to attack it with a Flare Blitz, she can't quite get a hold of the way he is moving and misses completely, running straight past and a way over the other side. Finally, Nidhogg once again comes over and this time tries to plant some seed around Belladonna, but unfortunately finds herself completely paralysed after the

Anyway, the action begins with, once again, Vulcan and Belldonna moving together towards Thrym. Again, Belladonna is closer, so she gets to him sooner and launches a Psybeam at him, which picks him up and throws him painfully over towards Vulcan. This means it can stop running and focus, and eventually lets off a few Arm Thrusts at Thrym, beating it back the direction it came and hurting it with the sudden pounding and change of momentum. In responce, Thrym lets off another huge Earthquake in the middle of the two now that they are closer to it, boosted this time by the increased power brought on by the Dragon Dance and knocking all other Pokemon around the stadium, but especially Vulcan and Belladonna. This leaves Nidhogg free once more to run up to attack his weakened foes once again, but just as it starts to run over it discovers that it can't move, because the paralysis has taken a hold once again. It leaves it stuck near the other Pokemon, and this means that the round is now finished. The only change is that the emperor seems to be calling out reinforcement again just in case the battle lasts through the next round. Also, the extras ordered last round have arrived... it seems that a huge hoard of Graveler have arrived around the field, and they looks like the rain caused by Kyogre's continual presence is frustrating them a lot. In fact, it looks like if anyone comes to close then they could do just about anything.. maybe even Explode! It looks like the battle is going to culminate to a peak next round, and it will certainly be interesting to see everything that happens.

And so we come to at least the penultimate round of this epic battle. As a recap, the mythical Pokemon Kyogre stands tall over the whole battlefield, and now a new obstical in the form of hords of Graveler have entered the stage, and they have already been angered by the rain brought by Kyogre. They look like they might attack at any point, but the Pokemon look like they are ready and rearing to go for their trainers, trying to close out a very close battle. Belladonna and Vulcan once again start off the round by moving off to attack at the same time, ut in a departure from tradition, they each move in different directions. Vulcan moves off to Nidhogg, summoning up a ball of flames and casting it at Nidhogg. The eerie Will-o-wisp burns him badly, crippling him for the rest of the time. At the same time, Belladonna moves over to enshroud Thrym with another Psybeam, launching it once again to the other side of the stadium. In fact, it is only by a small miracle that it avoids all of the Graveler around the stadium. It gets up again though, and lets loose one final Earthquake before it goes. It shakes the ground violently, and in fact it annoys the Graveler so much that finaly they are goaded into action, shaking the ground along with Thrym and boosting the attack, while it makes him lose control of the earthquake slightly, and take the extra damage that the others are taking. It also surprises everyone by taking out Vulcan by a hair, leaving iiMKUltra with only one Pokemon left to try to take on Fenris and Thrym. Finally, Fenris comes out to launch himself with some leaves at Belladonna once more. It flies at Bella with Leaf Blades in tow, flying out her and knocking her back, even while inhibitted by the burn. She flies after her, Thrym moving behind, both looking ready to try to close out the battle.

Belladonna turns around, ready to try to take out one of the two opponents. She stops to concentrate, and mentally launches a projectile at Thrym, knocking him a long back with a Psyshock into a particularly dense patch of Graveler. They look around, and suddenly one violently explodes, setting off a chain reaction tht leaves Thrym battered and bruised, and launched over to the far wall in the colosseum. He is out so very cold the atoms are going backwards, and it leaves everyone with just a one on one, Belladonna against Nidhogg. Belladonna takes the chance to attack back once before the duel begins properly, and once again launches himself at Belladonna with another great Leaf Blade, knocking Belladonna in preparation for their duel while dodging the Graveler all the while.

Finally, after all of these casualties, we are down to the final two Pokemon, dueling it out for the win. Bella starts off the round by once again concentrating to generate a huge Psywave, and it uses it to raise up and drop Nidhogg, hurting it badly, even while it dodges the Graveler on the ground. Nidhogg responds with yet another Leaf Blade, knocking Belladonna once more. This leaves the round over, and it looks like it is going to be close to the end, the Pokemon completely evenly matched. Also, the emperor's final Pokemon seem to be arriving: All around the stadium, doors are opening, and and the attendants are moving around, seemingly readying the stadium for some new threat. Finally, there is an outpouring of scores of shadows, and only eventually is it revealed that a huge flood of Pokemon is entering the arena. Almost anything around has just entered the field in large numbers, and as the flood subsides, slowly a shadowy figure enters the arena. It walks out, and roars, and flies out to over the stadium, revealing itself to be the legendary Pokemon Dialga! It looks like it was drawn by the missing week in the middle of the battle, and the contestants probably only just have enough time to issue instructions before it acts, doing something that no-one can guess. It will certainly be an action-packed round!

Nidhogg, Mega Drain her to open the round. Mirror Coat the Psyshock back and finish her with a Leaf Storm if she's still alive.
