Metagross (Kirot) {O}

Nature: Quiet (+1 SpA, -15% Speed, -10% Evasion)
Type: Steel / Psychic

Psychic: Psychic STAB; less susceptible to blinding, more susceptible to sound-based assaults as far as locking on with Psychic attacks, can lift and throw opponents with Psychic attacks regardless of weight difference.

Abilities:

Clear Body: (Innate)

This Pokemon’s body structure makes it immune to status lowering moves used by opponents. (e.g. Intimidate, Growl, Screech etc.)

Light Metal: (Trait)

The Pokemon executes weak attacks much more effectively, adding +1 priority to all their attacks with 6 or less Base Attack Power (after other ability adjustments). Priority is applied to the summed Base Attack Power of a multi-hit move (e.g. Double Kick has priority at 6 BAP, Skill Link Bullet Seed doesn't at 15 BAP.)

Abilities:
Keen Eye: (Innate) This Pokemon has extremely good vision and cannot have its accuracy lowered by an opponent through any means (including accuracy lowering attacks, Smogs, Hazes, Fog, etc.). Its attacks are still affected by an opponent’s evasion and the Pokemon's own accuracy.

All the particulars are set, let's see who orders first! As per usual, heads will represent the gym Leader while tails will represent the challenger!

And so Gerard will open with his first two Pokemon and their items. Zarator will follow with his two pokemon, their items and their orders, Gerard will order and we'll let the fun begin!

...assuming i can see anything in this pitch dark place...

Gerard · Dec 18, 2012

Another Gym leader has come to me... (I hope this time we can finish this)
I hoped to see Hydreigon tough, but it doesn't change my plans one bit, my mons have been around some unfriendly ghosts and we are not scared of them, this duet should be able to do some pretty good damage to anything that dares to come. Wilde. Yue, the stage is yours for all to see you.

Expert Belt & Charcoal

So, Enable everything and let's go!

zarator · Dec 20, 2012

The moon was so beautiful, and the trainers had eyes only for each other... but we're not here for a romance! Let the dance begin!

Pokemon Trainer Shauntal sends out Ibrandul (Sableye M) and Lathander (Volcarona M)!

Sableye - Fake Out (Darmanitan) - Shadow Claw (Darmanitan) - Payback (Darmanitan)
If Darmanitan uses Dig on A2 or A3, redirect your attacks onto Gallade
If Darmanitan uses Protect on any action, redirect your attacks onto Gallade (but in Fake Out's case change that action to Shadow Ball (Gallade) and push your actions back)
Volcarona - Bug Buzz (Darmanitan) - Hurricane (Darmanitan) - Hyper Beam (Darmanitan)
If either Pokemon uses a damaging Rock-type attack on Volcarona replace your respective action with Fly (Gallade)
If Gallade uses Ally Switch on any action, change your target accordingly to still target Darmanitan.

Gerard · Dec 20, 2012

Mmmm...
I think you have reasons to try and get rid of Yue as soon as possible, but you should never underestimate Wilde, he seems a little left out and I don't like when he's excluded. No time to lose guys, we can't afford to lose this turn.

Expert Belt & Charcoal

Wilde: Thunder Wave (Lathander) ~ Stone Edge (Lathander) ~ Stone Edge (Lathander)

Yue: [Enable Sheer Force] Heat Wave ~ Encore (Ibrandul) ~ Heat Wave

Everything went as planned (wow, that +1 acc sure has been worth it), now that Lathander is dangerously low on health it's time to get rid of her for good, sorry darling but we can't take any risks. Wilde, make sure he cannot scape his fate by any means, meanwhile Yue will continue to spread the flames upon the field. First move is in case she tries to scape, there's only so many ways to cheat on death and we have them all covered, tough it's never bad to prepare even more just in case, afterwards you should focus in the little demon ooking at you with diamond eyes, he's proaby the mon I'm the most worried about, don't let his tricks undermine you.

Expert Belt & Charcoal

Wilde: Rock Slide ~ Knock Off (Ibrandul) ~ Rock Slide

This story is taking quite a dramatic turn!

Pokemon Trainer Shauntal sends out Persephone (Necturna F)!

... wait, did those Speed drops already fade?

Gerard · Jan 17, 2013

No, -1 boosts last for at least 4 actions, which means they should be active for at east the end of the round

Texas Cloverleaf · Jan 17, 2013

Gerard is correct, I forgot to note them in the summary

zarator · Jan 18, 2013

Sableye: Poison Jab (Darmanitan) - Shadow Claw (Darmanitan) - Shadow Ball (Darmanitan)
If Darmanitan uses a protective action, replace your action with Foul Play (Gallade) and push your actions back. Do not play this substitution consecutively.
If Gallade uses Ally Switch, change your target accordingly so that you still hit Darmanitan
If Darmanitan uses Double Team, replace your next action with Icy Wind (target Darmanitan and his clones as first priority) and push your actions back.
If Darmanitan is KOed, change all your remaining actions to Foul Play (Gallade).

Necturna: Poison Fang (Darmanitan) - Shadow Claw (Darmanitan) - Stone Edge (Darmanitan)
If Darmanitan uses a protective action, replace your action with Seed Bomb (Gallade) and push your actions back. Do not play this substitution consecutively.
If Gallade uses Ally Switch, change your target accordingly so that you still hit Darmanitan.
If Darmanitan uses a damaging Fire-type attack against you (and you're not Taunted), replace your respective action with Protect and push your actions back. Don't play this substitution more than once in this round.
If Darmanitan is KOed, change all your remaining actions to Horn Leech (Gallade)

Gerard · Jan 19, 2013

We can't let something like a little poison slow us down, it would look pretty bad to lose against something we're supposed to be above wouldn't it? Though it woudn't be us if we couldn't find a way though it, that's the fun part.

Round 3

It appears that our current ref was summoned to try his own luck in getting a gym, so he couldn't continue this. I will be your ref for now on!

The challenger sends out Persephone his Necturna with Big Root equipped. Necturna is a great case of "great stats-poor movepool" problems and is quite predictable if you watch it closely. Sure, predicting it to kick your ass isn't really helping.

Either way, Persephone is the first to attack, using the Fangs on her hands, impued with a strong Poison to bite Yue the Darmanitan. But the Zen Pokemon remained calm and collected and didn't even aknowledged that move!

Sableye tries his hand also attacking Yue with a Poison Jab for...similar results, and Wilde seizes that opportunity to lock Ibrandul on a weak move with Encore. Finally, Yue unleashes a flaming kanji (aka Fire Blast) right at the Sableye for great damage! Things aren't looking good for our challenger.

On the second turn Persephone, sensing great danger, erects a Protective barrier, while Ibrandul continues to attack Yue with Poison Jab, Poisoning the Darmanitan in the process. Finally, Wilde uses Skill Swap to trade his Justified with Ibrandul's Prankster (hahahah a change of hearts) and Yue proceeds to LAY DOWN THE HURT with Heat Wave, partially blocked by Persephone's barrier.

Before the Necturna could even attack, the now Prankster Wilde uses Encore on it and Persephone is forced to try her hand at another Protective barrier...and fails. Ibrandul attacks with Poison Jab for the last time before getting rid of the encore right before Yue LAYS DOWN YET MORE HURT with anotgher charcoal-boosted sheer force Heat Wave.

A challenger has a significant disadvantage to overcome. Since this is doubles it is not entirely impossible to do so, but very difficult for sure.

Round 4

Seeing how battered Yue is, the Gym Leader decides to call it back, after a job well done, and sends out Kirot the Metagross with Focus Sash to replace it.

On the first turn team Zarator assumes a defensive stance with Persephone using Protect and Ibrandul using Detect. Kinda for naught, as Wilde just chilled and Kirot used Agility to boost its speed. What a boring turn!

On the second turn things get more interesting as Ibrandul pumps up adrenaline on his "veins" to Endure future attacks. Which was a great idea, considering that Kirot smashed it with Meteor Mash a couple moments after that. Meanwhile, the Prankster Wilde puts up a Safeguard just before Persephone tried to burn the Metagross with Will-o-Wisp. The move failed!

Finally, Wilde continues to Chill and Kirot pointlessly attacks Ibrandul again with Meteor Mash, while Persephone strikes hard at Wilde with Shadow Claw, getting a nice Critical Hit and Ibrandul ends this round by using Skill Swap to get his prankster ability back.

The Gym Leader still have a good advantage and it will take some work for the challenger to recover from that. And now the Leader is ordering last, so it will be an uphill battle, for sure!

Necturna: Protect for 7 energy

Metagross: Agility for 6 energy

Sableye: Endure for 15 energy

But it failed!

If WoW failed, why Metagross is burned? O.o

I forgot prankster and had it burned at first. When I changed it, I forgot to erase the burn.

Fixed.

zarator · Feb 16, 2013

Sableye: Taunt (Gallade) - Foul Play (Metagross) - Foul Play (Metagross)
If Gallade uses Protect or Magic Coat, change your respective action to Sucker Punch (Metagross), and push your actions back.
Necturna: Shadow Claw (Gallade) - Power Whip (Gallade) - Shadow Claw (Gallade)
If Gallade uses Ally Switch successfully, redirect your actions accordingly to still target him. If Gallade is KOed, change all your remaining actions to Shadow Ball (Metagross).

And so with a final strike Sableye finally falls, and it won't be long for Persephone to go the same way
