Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
SoS, are you still reffing this? If you are too busy, please let us know so we can get a sub-ref. It would be nice if we could finish Gym matches before New Years.
Again, sorry this is late. On the bright side, I'm finished university for Christmas (well, after one lecture on Friday, but it's a study skills module, doesn't count), so I should be fairly regular.

Kaxtar calls back his paralysed griffon - he doesn't seem to want to take any chances with the RNG. Rain continues to pour down on this fight for Fighting control, but it certainly doesn't throw off Longshot's aim, who claps his new opponent, Demi Gravidon the Gallade, on both sides of the face, causing him to flinch in shock! However, irritated by the speed difference, he uses his Steadfast ability to get even faster! This doesn't stop the frog smacking him hard in the belly with a poisoned dark fist before he can act though! And it seems that the venom has infected Demi Gravidon, who coughs from the poison, before slashing Longshot out of the match with a blade forged from his brain.
Calcs:
Toxicroak used Fake Out! (crit roll: 9219 - no) (9 damage, 2 recoil, 4 energy)
Gallade flinched! Gallade's speed rose!
Toxicroak used Sucker Poison Jab! (crit roll: 7626 - no, poison roll: 938 - yes) (17 damage, 3 recoil, 17 energy, Gallade poisoned)
SoS' note: The DAT says that in combos, recoil damage is multiplied by 1.5. Whether this extends to the Life Orb or not, I'm not sure, but I would assume so.
Gallade used Psycho Cut! (crit roll: 4994 - no) (31 damage, 4 energy)
Toxicroak fainted!
Gallade is hurt by poison (2)
With Toast's final Pokémon on the field, and not a single KO gained against Kaxtar's team, the battlers simply slug it out, with Demi Gravidon's mind blades managing to strike the beetle before he's able to dig underground, and even scoring a critical hit on one occasion! At the end of the round, Tyro's Flame Orb activates, burning him and activating his Guts. Will this be enough to turn things around for Toast?
