Terrador14 vs. Korski in a 6v6 doubles at the Hall of Origin (ref: TravelLog)

[TravelLog]

Welcome to an exciting match at the Hall of Origin!
What do you think Arceus?

Bother me not mortal!

...Alrighty then. Let's meet the competitors!

Hall of Origin

Arena: Hall of Origin
The home of Arceus, the Original One. It has deigned to obeserve the duel between two Trainers. Normally it won't interfere, being the creator of justice and honor; however, should his home (Rank 5 Def, Rank 5 SDef, ??? Type) take an increment of 20 Damage (takes damage whenever a multi hit attack occurs or an attack misses, even activated by attacks such as Heat Wave and Rock Slide), Arceus will lash out with a random-typed 5 SpA Judgement against the offending party. The dimensions of the arena are 50 meters long and 20 meters wide; long story short, it'll hold pretty much anything.

6v6 Doubles

Round One: A Fierce Start

This match begins with a bang as Torchic opens by launching a powerful flamethrower at Bulbasaur, doing some serious damage. Bulbasaur seems to have expected this however, and decides to help heal himself by releasing a Leech Seed (lasts 6 actions) aimed at Beldum. Happiny also feels like ganging up on the alien piece of metal, and launches a Flamethrower of its own at the sentient artifact, doing nasty damage. Beldum, not willing to take this lying down, flings himself at Bulbasaur with a Zen Headbutt.

Torchic feels like changing things up, so he triggers a Rock Slide dealing a bit of damage to both opponents, as well as to the Hall of Origin. Arceus isn't pleased, but for now it doesn't look like he plans on doing anything about it. Bulbasaur really seems to hate Torchic, as he envenoms it with a nasty Toxic, leaving the red bird badly poisoned. As leech seed takes affect once more, Beldum hits Happiny with his Iron Head, causing it to flinch! It looked like it had wanted to counter to! What a shame.

Not wanting to change a working strategy, Torchic blasts Bulbasaur with another Flamethrower, while Bulbasaur responds with an extremely painful Venoshock. Happiny meanwhile hits Beldum with a Flamethrower, giving it a 2nd degree burn. Beldum, hurt but by no means out, responds with a Zen Headbutt.

Korski, your actions.

 

[Terrador]

Beau: Venoshock on Yonderwear x3
Good work, bro.
Safari: Flamethrower on Mecha x3
IF Mecha uses Iron Head, THEN use Counter in the action where Mecha is Iron Heading.

 

[Korski]

Okay, team, that was a pretty good start! That's too bad about your burn, Mecha, and your poisoning, Yonderwear, and your getting Leech Seeded, Mecha.

Yonderwear: Finish off Beau with a beefy Flamethrower and troll his 20 remaining HP with a 21 damage attack! Then I want you to trap Safari with a Fire Spin and hit it with another Flamethrower! If Beau uses Synthesis on the second action, replace Fire Spin with a Flamethrower aimed at Beau.

Mecha: Your options are pretty limited here, so... Iron Head~Zen Headbutt~Iron Head on Safari. If Beau wins the speed tie against Yonderwear and uses Synthesis on the first action, replace the first two actions with Zen Headbutt and aim them at Beau!

Round 2: Fire in the Hole!

Once again Torchic manages to outspeed Bulbasaur, KOing it with a vicious Flamethrower. It does look like Torchic is really feeling that poison however, as every move leaves it grimacing. Beldum takes the opportunity left by Bulbasaur's unconsciousness to launch an Iron Head at Happiny. The little guy seems to have been expecting it however, as he powerfully Counters doing more damage than even the initial attack would lead you to believe. Beldum for that matter is still affected by that 2nd degree burn.

Torchic angrily creates a spinning vortex of fire around Happiny, doing a little damage and stopping its physical attacks. Happiny is smart though and simply shoots a Flamethrower of its own at Beldum for some heavy damage. Beldum responds with another Zen Headbutt.

Torchic uses a Flamethrower of its own, inadvertently dispelling the Fire Spin, but still doing some damage. Beldum is really feeling its own pain however, and just manages to hit Happiny with an Iron Head before the burn and Happiny's subsequent Counter leave it down for the count.

It's two mons down and 10 to go! Who will win?

As it enters battle, a Sandstorm is whipped up at the cost of 10% of Caesar's Energy. This Sandstorm is never-ending; it's like that one annoying route from RSE all over again!

???

Oh boy, guys, this is going to be rough. I'll send out Sucker the Colosshale.

Yonderwerar: Nice KO there! I knew you had it in you! Except now you're staring down at a monster 10 times your size, which is not good... In any case, since this will likely be your last round, we have to re-assess our threat levels a bit. Get some strategy going with Colosshale so we can get past this beast: Flamethrower Safari x2~Will-o-Wisp Caesar. Ideally we can get 2nd-degree burns on it. If Caesar uses Stone Edge on you, replace that action with Counter!

Sucker: I'm going to need your particular skills (Speed) a lot here, so don't let me down! First, Fake Out Safari. Then Aqua Tail Caesar twice. If Caesar tries to use Substitute replace that action with Taunt.

 

[Terrador]

Caesar, let's show them how powerful you've become! Use Rock Slide twice, then Stone Edge on Yonderwear for the KO! If Yonderwear is not at or below 28 HP on the third action, use Rock Slide again instead!

All right, Safari, you're doing great. Hang in there! Thunderbolt Colloshale three times!

Round Three: There's Definitely a Lesson Here

Colloshale begins the round by using a dastardly Fake Out on Happiny, causing it to flinch and leaving it unable to act... poor thing. Big Bad Tyranitar immediately uses some energy and his ability to whip up a Sandstorm (4 rounds) that does residual damage to everything, including the Hall of Origin. Arceus looks kind of mad, but he isn't moving quite yet. Tyranitar then uses Rock Slide, doing noticeable damage to everything, making Arceus madder and hurting both opponents. Torchic responds by shooting a Flamethrower at Happiny, leaving it close to KO. Poison is definitely taking its toll on Torchic however.

Colloshale takes some initiative and hits TTar with a powerful Aqua Tail, doing respectable damage to the great beast. Tyranitar likes his strategy, and thus uses another Rock Slide. This makes Arceus so angry that he begins gathering energy for something. Uh oh! From there, Torchic uses another Flamethrower leaving Happiny on the very verge of unconsciousness, though Torchic doesn't look to good either. Happiny uses its remaining strength to hit Colloshale with a powerful Thunderbolt.

Colloshale acts first once again and delivers yet another Aqua Tail to Tyranitar, dealing good damage. Tyranitar shrugs it off however and finishes Torchic with a devastating Stone Edge. Happiny ends the round with another Thunderbolt on Colloshale before succumbing to unconsciousness thanks to residual damage from Tyranitar's sandstorm. Oh the irony is painful folks. What's this! Arceus is about to do something!

Remember mortals, there is a price for your foolishness. And those who meddle with me are fools indeed!

With that, Arceus launches a green-colored (Grass-type) Judgement at Caesar, dealing huge damage.

Korski, send out your next mon, then Terra your mon and actions. Then Korski your actions.

EDIT@below: The KOC goes to the last mon to damage Happiny before sandstorm damage, so Torchic gets it.

 

[Korski]

Caesar better not get that KOC.
I'll send out Kitch the Embirch because I am a man.

We've got them now.

Sucker, Fake Out Caesar to prevent that deadly Substitute from going up. While that's going on, I want Kitch to use Will-o-Wisp on Caesar to knock it down a peg. Then I want you, Sucker, to Taunt down that Stealth Rock while Embirch again uses Will-o-Wisp, only this time on Mia!

Round Four: Burned Out

This round opens with Colloshale Faking Out Tyranitar, causing it to flinch and leaving it unable to act at all! Mincinno, just released on the field, retaliates by hitting Colloshale with a devastating 3-hit Tail Slap, which Embirch follows up by creating a mystical, fiery Will-o-wisp, giving Tyranitar a nasty 2nd degree burn. Arceus is again mad at the sandstorm, but isn't acting just yet.

In another smart play, Colloshale Taunts Tyranitar, goading it into a frothing fury, so much so that it once again cannot take action! This is bad news for Terrador folks! Minccino knows a good strategy when it gets one, so it continues to hit Colloshale with frustrating Tail-Slaps, KOing the whale!. Embirch, still unacknowledged by any of the other pokemon, simply uses another Will-o-wisp, this time burning Minccino.

Mincinno yet again uses Tail-Slap, this time doing heavy damage to Embirch! Tyranitar is still taunted, so he is too furious to act, which causes Embirch's attempt to counter fail utterly. Once again the sandstorm kicks up, KOing Colloshale. That's the second pokemon this match! Additionally, Arceus is looking madder and madder. Watch out everyone!

Korski, your next mon and actions.

EDIT: fixed calcs, etc.

 

[Korski]

Well I might as well send in Topsy the Gyarados. Let's see if we can figure something out. So, I guess Intimidate activates instantly, costing 2 energy (total or for each, idk), worsening those burned losers' attacks even more!

Topsy, you know what to do. Aqua Tail Caesar twice for maximum justice! After that first Aqua Tail, Kitch, I want you to Giga Drain Caesar! After the second, Protect yourself from harm. The burn damage should finish the tyrant off. Then I want to see Topsy Bounce over Mia's third attack while Kitch Leech Seeds it, followed by Topsy's return to the ground floor, right on top of Mia!

Topsy: Aqua Tail x2 (Caesar)~Bounce (Mia)
If Caesar tries to use Stone Edge on you, Bounce over it and land right on its face!
Kitch: Giga Drain (Caesar)~Protect~Leech Seed (Mia)
if Caesar tries to use Rock Slide, replace that action with Counter.

 

[Terrador]

Caesar: Stone Edge Kitch => Thunder Fang Topsy => Stone Edge Kitch
Mia: Growl => Double Team (4 Clones) => Helping Hand Caesar

Bar unfortunate hax, this round should end in our favor... let's see what favor or malice Ashera views our efforts with.

Round Four: Haxy Judgement


As Gyarados takes the field, he Intimidates both opponents, lowering their attack, whereupon he immediately follows up with a devastating Aqua Tail on Tyranitar. Mincinno issues a Growl, lowering the attack of both opponents. Tyranitar tries to use Stone Edge but misses, leaving an infuriated Arceus in his wake. THIS IS BAD NEWS! From here, Embirch uses an effective Giga Drain on Tyranitar, doing some damage and healing a bit of health before the sandstorm takes effect once again.

Likewise, Gyarados repeats his earlier Aqua Tail, which coupled with the Giga Drain and Tyranitar's burn finally does it in for the ancient beast. Minccino, looking worried, decides to create a 4-clone Double Team, meaning it will be much harder to hit. Embirch meanwhile, Protects himself for some reason, even though no one is attacking him.

From here, Gyarados Bounces and tries to hit Minccino, but only manages to hit a clone. Tough luck there. Mincinno however merely looks around nervously. I think it had imagined Tyranitar would still be around. To close out the round, Embirch tosses a Leech Seed at one of the Minccino images... miraculously, its the right one, causing all the others to dissipate. That's it for the round I guess. WAIT! ARCEUS IS DOING SOMETHING!

Twice I have warned you not to meddle with that which you do not understand and twice my warnings have gone unheeded. So for the second time, TASTE MY JUDGEMENT!

With that, Arceus launches an enormous ball of energy at Mincinno, doing some nasty damage.

Round Five: Substitutions!

As the round opens, the freshly released Gastly begins wailing a Perish Song, leaving Embirch and Gyarados only 3 rounds of unconsciousness! To prepare for the task ahead, Gyarados summons a small statue, no its a Substitute! Uncaring, Minccino decides to use Double Team, creating four after-images, greatly confusing all pokemon and the audience, not to mention myself. Which of the five is real!? It looks like Minccino is still feeling the Leech Seed from earlier though. Embirch, smiling at its working tactics, decides to also Leech Seed Gastly. What a meanie!

Gastly takes a page from Gyarados' playbook and constructs a substitute of his own, which Gyarados tries to break-- but fails-- with a powerful Aqua Tail. The substitute is cracked all over, but still standing. Minccino, meanwhile, tries to Sing Gyarados to sleep, but can't reach it through Gyarados' substitute. UGH TOO MANY! At least Embirch isn't using one! In fact, he finishes off Gastly's substitute and destroys Minccino's clones with an enormous Lava Plume! Unfortunately, I think Arceus is going to hand down a Judgement on Embirch come the end of the round.

Gastly decides he hates Gyarados' substitute, so he destroys it with a powerful Thunderbolt. Gyarados is unfazed, however, and simply makes a new substitute, albeit a weaker one as well. Minccino, rather than attack, simply Growls, lowering the attack of both opponents. Embirch, following what seems to be a trend, creates a Substitute of his own.

You think such things as this can stop me?! I AM ARCEUS, CREATOR OF WORLDS!

With this cry, Arceus promptly ignores Embirch's substitute, hitting him with a powerful brown (Fighting), judgement. Luckily for Embirch, Arceus at least left the substitute standing.

Korski, your actions.

Edit: fixed @below

 

[Terrador]

Noting that both Gastly and Minccino have Perish Counts on them, and that those counts are at 2 (since the round in which the move is used counts as one of the rounds; see Screens here, weather here, any field effect ingame, etc.)

 

[Korski]

Damn I thought if SS triggered the HoO my guys wouldn't have to take the hit. So much for trying to manipulate field effects. Also, shouldn't Gyara's second Sub have blocked the Growl? If this is untrue, please alert me because I will have to change actions.

Okay guys, this is getting pretty intense; we only have this round and the next to make an impact, so let's get to it! Topsy, I want you to Thunder Wave Nappa to slow it down for a while and hopefully get some more hax sent our way. Then it'll have to be time for little Mia to leave us for good. Aqua Tail it, twice, hard. Kitch, you have been incredible so far by breaking through those Double Teams, so I'm going to give you a little break. Use Ember on Mia to start off the round and then just Chill out while Topsy picks up the slack.

Topsy: Thunder Wave (Nappa)~Aqua Tail x2 (Mia)
If Nappa uses Substitute on Action 1, replace that action with Dragon Dance!
Kitch: Ember (Mia)~Chill~Chill

 

[Terrador]

imho, it probably should've blocked the Growl.
Nappa: Substitute (15 HP) => Thunderbolt (Topsy) => Will-O-Wisp (Topsy)
Mia: Substitute (15 HP) => Dig (Kitch) => Growl
