"Ew, ew, ew! Why did I propose a battle here? It's so mushy and gross."

"Ha! Sucks to be you! I can fly, sucker!"

2poqw47.gif

"Hey no fair! Let me on your back! I'm not that heavy!"

"I just carried you all the way out here. Besides, if you're up in the air, how will the battlers be able to hear you ref their match? And how will Ooraloo be able to supervise you?"

2poqw47.gif

"Fine, I guess you're right. Take a rest."
[*Recalls Charizard*]

"Now where were we ... oh yes! Our two battlers! The two that will be duking it out today are none other than Silver_Lucario42 and TorterraX! They each brought a team packed with not fully evolved Pokemon, so this should certainly be an interesting match! The arena is something the battlers are going to have to take note of, however, as it's quite a bit different from your everyday ASB arena. Let's see what they make of it! Here are our two competitors's teams:"

Atlas
Grotle [Male]

Atlas was a Pokemon living in a wildlife preserve in Sinnoh at the time when Jordan's mom was a Pokemon trainer. He took a liking to her when she came by, recognizing the determination and strength of character of the woman, so he snuck out of the park at night and followed her around. It didn't take long for her to realize someone was following her, as all her berries and poffins mysteriously disappeared. Every attempt to make Turtwig enter a Pokeball failed, as he wanted to be always by her side. Because of his will to always help people and carry his trainer's burden, Jordan' mom named him Atlas. The pokemon has been an invaluable partner for all her career. When she settled down and founded a family, Atlas decided to stay and help with all he could, even though he missed the life full of adventures he once had lived.

Though it was not over for him, a one day Jordan, who, since the day he was born had been bet friends with the Pokemon who acted as his caretaker, decided to take off and follow his mother's steps, despite not having any Pokemon of his own. Once again, Atlas escaped from the house and hid in Jordan's backpack, worrying his mom to death because she could not find him.

Atlas is now determined to help Jordan in his travels, and roams the lands with him in hope that together they can become a marvelous battling duo, though the berries Jordan carries would be more than enough to keep Atlas going!

Characteristic and Fun facts:
Likes helping more than everything (besides food), has a bit of a chivalric streak at times, hates spiders that lodge on his shell.
He became rivals with Ooraloo 's Metang, Planck, after said Pokemon failed to flinch Grotle after multiple Iron Heads and Atlas won the duel with 1 hp remaining.

Overgrow (Passive):
When this Pokemon's HP is lower than 33% (33 HP), the Base Attack Power of any grass attack is increased by two (2).

Genesis
Kirlia [Female]

Type:
Psychic/Fairy

Abilities:
Synchronize(Passive):
Pokemon with this ability mentally link their condition to an opposing Pokemon and when inflicted by the major status ailments Burn, Poison, or Paralysis, will share their status condition with the opponent. Pokemon will not be inflicted by status conditions to which they are immune by virtue of typing, ability, etc.

Trace(Trigger):
When entering into battle, this Pokemon can copy an ability on one of its opponents for 6 EN. This effect only triggers if the ability to be copied is specified when the Pokemon is sent out. When facing a pokemon with Trace, the Player sending out last must send out the pokemon without orders, in order to give the opponent the opportunity to trigger trace and any orders eventually given will be ignored until given the opportunity for trace to be triggered. The ability remains on the Pokemon for six (6) actions. Wonder Guard cannot be Traced.

Command: Activate Trace (target ability) - 5 En - Replace Trace with the target Ability for six (6) actions. When the copied ability fades, the user regains Trace.


Telepathy(H)(Passive)(Locked):
This Pokemon has a mental link with its allies in multiple battles, which allows it to avoid taking damage from allied attacks that damage each foe or the entire field like Blizzard and Earthquake. They are still affected by an opponents spread damage attacks.

Illusion(H)(Passive)(Unlocked):
Whenever you send this Pokemon out, it can feign the appearance of another member on your squad. If this Pokemon is damaged by a direct attack, the Illusion will cease at the end of the round. Direct damage is any attack that does damage to the Pokemon's HP. Attacks that are evaded, blocked via Protect, or damage a Substitute are not considered direct damage. It will retain the typing and moveset of the Pokemon with Illusion. [Usage Note: PM the ref if you are sending out a Pokemon with Illusion with the info on said Pokemon and one of your squad members in a Switch=KO battle.

2poqw47.gif

"As the battle begins, both trainers know that their opponents pack powerful moves, and they both want to ensure that nothing gets used against them. Kirlia is able to get the jump on Dusclops, locking down three moves that were sure to be important in this battle. Dusclops tries to do the same, but just ends up struggling because the move he tried to use was one of the ones Kirlia imprisoned.

SL42 and Dusclops decide that physical tactics are the best way to go, but between having to trudge through the swamp and Dusclops's already low speed, Kirlia has ample time to set up a Substitute. As Dusclops goes for his bind attack, he finds that he only grabbed a little green doll.

Finally taking an offensive position, Kirlia appears from behind the subsitute to fire off a Shadow Ball, but Dusclops is so bulky that despite being super-effective, the attack doesn't do too much damage. Dusclops fires back with a ghostly attack of his own, summoning a spectral wind to damage and destroy Kirlia's subtitute."

"As we begin round two, Dusclops has the advantage. TorterraX and Kirlia know of Dusclops's immense special bulk, and decide that attacking from the physical side is the best option. Brainwaves materialize in front of Kirlia, and before Dusclops has a chance to react, they all strike him, dealing damage. SL42 and Dusclops have no intention of taking any more of a beating, so Dusclops flashes bright lights to disorient Kirlia. Kirlia is able to keep her focus strong and fire blue-white wisps at Dusclops. The wisps sear the beckon Pokemon's skin, causing him to be burned. Dusclops fires back with another blast of spectral wind, but once again unfortunately does not get the boosts. Still disoriented, Kirlia is unable to find her focus and ends up smacking herself, but her low physical strength means that it doesn't do much damage. To end off the round, Dusclops fires a barrage of bugs that circle around Kirlia, trapping her and nipping at her skin.

Don't worry about the boosts! Focus on the Kirlia!

Bind ~ Ominous Wind ~ Night Shade

IF Genesis does not use Imprison A1, THEN initiate action string Imprison [Imprison, Shadow Ball, Protect] ~ Bind ~ Shadow Ball
IF Genesis is under the effects of a P/E move AND the above substitution didn't activate THEN use Metronome [Rest, Aromatherapy, Refresh, Roost, Aqua Ring, Tail Glow, Shadow Force, metronome is always so hard Blizzard (Swamp), Sludge Wave (Swamp), Nasty Plot] and push back.

"So far, both battlers have taken a slow approach to this battle, preferring disabling tricks and wearing down their respective foes. Now, things are starting to heat up. Kirlia starts it off, materializing more of her brain waves, and sending them crashing into Dusclops's hollow body. The damage is starting to build up, but Dusclops remains unfazed. He lumbers over to Kirlia, giving her a nice big hug, and not letting go. Why you would want to hug somebody covered in bugs, I'm not sure.

Kirlia, instead of reporting this incident to the proper authorities, decides that she likes the warm and cozy feeling of a hug, and encourages Dusclops to hug her more. Dusclops happily complies, continuing to squeeze on Kirlia's body. The damage is negligible however, as Dusclops is feeling weak from his burns.

Despite the nice feeling of a warm hug, Kirlia knows that she is battling, and materializes more brain waves to damage Dusclops. Dusclops doesn't even flinch, and continues to hold Kirlia tight. Luckily for Kirlia, Dusclops must have driven the bugs away, as they stopped pestering Kirlia."​

No matter what I do in a battle, I always seem to get statused one way or another. It's really quite irritating. How about I show you what that feels like?

"Hey, why are you back?"

charizard.png

"A grass-type entered the field. I want it burned."

2poqw47.gif

"It appears that Dusclops has the same idea, but unfortunately, Grotle is able to avoid getting hit."

charizard.png

"A true master of fire, like myself, would have hit that."

2poqw47.gif

"Oh calm down. Grotle fires back, pun intended, by trudging through the swamp to land a Crunch on Dusclops, who, despite the swamp lowering Grotle's speed in performing the attack, is not able to dodge. The bite was so strong that Dusclops's bandage armor has been weakened. Not letting up for a second, Grotle continues his barrage by launching explosive seeds at Dusclops, which have extra sting thanks to the earlier defense drop. Landing a burn is starting to look vital for Dusclops, but luckily Grotle is unable to dodge this time."

charizard.png

"About time."

2poqw47.gif

"Shut up, he's trying his best. Grotle trudges back through the mud to land another huge chomp onto Dusclops, but despite the lowered defense, the attack reduction from the burn is enough to take quite a bit of the sting out of the attack. Dusclops trudges through the mud as well, coating his fist in icy energy and giving Grotle a punch in the face. Both Pokemon are feeling the pain of their burns, and Dusclops is running low on health and energy. What will the battlers do?"

How did you miss that?
dusclops.png

It was very strange. Just as my attack was about to make contact with the Grotle, a Gyarados suddenly sprung out of the water and took the attack.

That's not fair!
