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.
Purple Boss is once again low on energy after that long battle against Trubbish, so decides to chill some more. Ford, though not low on energy, takes this time to chill as well. Ghastly, now reinvigorated, begins to make swirly eyes to Hypnosis Pineco into a deep slumber, but is stopped by a Protect. As Purple Boss chills some more, he is finished by one final Payback from Ford.
Now that Ghastly is down, Orcinus Duo sends out his trusted Pants the Scraggy! Unfortunately for the gangstamon, he is instantly hit by layers of spikes, both toxic and normal! Ouch!
Still, he goes on an all out offense against Pineco, smashing the bug-type with a electric Thunderpunch. Ford is sent reeling from the attack, but retaliates right back with a spinning Gyro Ball! Thanks to his slowness, the attack is quite strong!
In this round of all out offense, Pants switches to his other hand for a bitter cold Ice Punch, chilling Ford to the bone (exoskeleton), but the little Pineco rolls over and Bug Bites Scraggy for some damage.
As the slugfest continues, another Thunderpunch from Pants is met with another rolling Gyro Ball Pineco creates. At the end of the round, the toxic poisoning on Pants seems to wear off as he drops his pants and sheds skin!
Pants goes on an all-out flaming offensive with repeated Fire Punches, placing blow after blow on the sturdy Pineco, and the bug-type manages to retaliate with a simple Bug Bite followed by a massive Explosion, destroying both of the Pokemon on the field.
Ford HP: KO Energy: KO Stats: KO Status: KO
Pants HP: KO Energy: KO Stats: KO Status: Spikes (3 Layers), Acidic T-Spikes (2 Layer)
Rezzy, you're up! Choose which mon you will send out, since Orcinus only has one, and the order!
After that explosive end to the last matchup, SpikesOfDoom and Toyota face off, with the entry hazards giving Nincada the early advantage. Toyota goes for all-out offense, striking Ferroseed with a powerful X-Scissor, only to get hurt by its spiky exterior. A Leech Seed also starts to slowly sap away at Toyota's health. Still, Toyota continues with a nifty Bug Bite, nabbing a Pecha Berry from right out of Ferroseed's mouthy-spiky-things. Tough luck, because the poison is still there! Another X-Scissor strikes SpikesofDoom before the steel-type can create a Substitute.
Toyota HP: 72 Energy: 87 Stats: None Status: Seeded (3A)
NOTE: Bug Bite's description says it will eat berries in the field, which just happens to be all of them for this arena. I RNG'ed it, and guess what, it got Pecha Berry.
As what appears to be approaching the final round, Toyota dives underneath the ground to detach himself from some of the Leech Seeds (reducing the effecct to 2 DPA) as well as dodge a Power Whip. He rises up for a weak Dig attack, and then follows up immediately with an X-Scissor to destroy the Substitute, only to get whacked in the face with Power Whip. Another X-Scissor and one Power Whip later, SpikesOfDoom is looking very weak.
