Sending out Storm The Rufflet...

"Okay, let's see how this one turns out... Go, Zelda the Reshiram!"

*sigh* "Why do I even bother?"


Will-O-Wisp - Flamethrower - Extrasensory

[IF] Facade is used [AND] Rufflet is already burned [THEN] start command string Protect - Disable
[IF] a P/E move is used, use Substitute (20 HP) on the first instance, Sunny Day on the second instance, pushing actions back​

Protect - Rock Slide - Protect...

Flavor

Action 1

The two Pokemon involved in this particular struggle, Storm (Rufflet) and Zelda (Vulpix) burst forth from their respective Poke Balls in flashes of light. Less then a minute passes before Rufflet, sensing danger, creates a defensive barrier to protect it from any theoretical assaults, but Vulpix, deciding that defense is the better option here, initiates a more passive strategy and uses its mystical powers to create a doll that acts as a stand-in for our vulpine friend.

Action 2:

Rufflet, knowing that it has to attack in order to win the battle, drops its blockade in preparation of its next course of action, but as soon as bird's guard drops, Vulpix summons a small orb of eldritch fire and launches it at its foe. The projectile passes through Rufflet's body and vanishes, but its victim soon breaks out in visible burns that will surely impede it in its efforts at conquest.

However, Rufflet manages to ignore this attack—which does not prove to act as that great of hindrance this early on—and triggers a rain of boulders over its opponent's side of the arena; however, the sly fox's substitute draws the rocks toward it, effectively nullifying any efforts at actual damage inflicted to Vulpix.

Action 3:

Rufflet, returning to its defensive strategy, creates a ward of force to shield it from whatever Vulpix might throw at it, but the latter still does not attack it directly, instead casting a spell of sorts that magnifies the intensity of the sun's rays and bolsters the strength of fires within its area of effect.

[VirajVora]

Shit I misunderstood what he meant...
I thought his attack 2 was Sunny Day :[
When he said second instance, I thought he meant second attack :[

Damn...

 

[VirajVora]

Fury Attack - Facade - Facade...

If Zelda uses Disable on A3, use Rock Slide on A2...
If Zelda uses Protect, use Hone Claws and push actions back...

 

[YellowAdminSilver]

"Well, that's a lot of energy in a single round, huh?"

"...I hate you"

Extrasensory - Flamethrower - Disable​

 

[P2X7]

VirajVora / YellowAdminSilver: I realize that I forgot to show in the post-round that Vulpix has a 5 HP Substitute. Does this change your orders at all?

 

[YellowAdminSilver]

Not for me, I was actually going to ask you about that. And I'd think that VirajVora picked Fury Attack with that in mind

 

[VirajVora]

No changes here too...

Flavor

Action 1

Vulpix, safe behind its substitute, uses psychic abilities to attack its foe with a burst of telekinetic energy in the hopes of disrupting its strategy. However, Rufflet is unfazed by this, and darts towards its attacker before delivering two swift pecks, one of which shatters Vulpix's protective doll, and the other strikes the fox itself in a weak point, dealing a powerful blow—as far pecks go, that is.

Action 2

In an attempt to create distance between it and Rufflet, Vulpix briefly gathers its powers before exhaling a powerful jet of fire that singes its avian adversary and forces it to retreat.

After a moment, Rufflet dives back into the fray, crashing into Vulpix and ignoring the burns that previously hindered it to deliver a strike that is somehow stronger than before Rufflet was afflicted by the harmful condition.

Action 3

As Rufflet swoops down at it to deliver another attack, Vulpix only just realizes the bird's true power, and quickly begins a charm that should stop it in its tracks; however, in its haste, Vulpix forgets to fixate upon a specific technique to impair, fails the maneuver, and has only seconds to deliver a quick bite to defend itself from its oncoming foe, who executes a second powerful attack that leaves Vulpix reeling.

Calculations

Action 1:
Vulpix used Extrasensory
[to crit <625] 9258 no
[to flinch <2000] 4866 no
(8 + 3 - 3) = 8 damage (Rufflet)

(14 + 3 + 6 - 3) = 20 damage (Vulpix)
-7 energy

-2 HP (Rufflet) [Burn]

Action 3:
Vulpix used Struggle (Note: In ASB, Disable is capable of preventing the use of any move that the target used within the last three actions, and thus requires a move to be targeted in order to be used. Because no move was specified, Vulpix uses Struggle instead.)
[to crit <625] 5643 no
(5 + 1.5 - 3) = 3.5 damage (Rufflet)
Vulpix hurt itself with the attack! (-1.4 HP)

[VirajVora]

Wow I didn't knew Disable could do that... I assumed it Disables any move based on his Turn 1 Subs... Good thing learned something new...

 

[YellowAdminSilver]

Ughhhhh I didn't know that either...! And it was all going so well too *sobs*
Oh well I guess this is why we play beginner battles and shiz

Hypnosis - Flamethrower - Flame Burst

[IF] a P/E move is used, Chill, pushing actions back
[IF] Sleep Talk is used A2, start command string Protect - Disable [Sleep Talk]

[IF] Rufflet is awake A2, Cry and try not to faint till we can order last​

 

[VirajVora]

Are u trying to make burned Pokemon asleep ?

Facade - Facade - Facade...

Oh then, I have to reconsider it...

 

[YellowAdminSilver]

Yeah, status stacks in ASB. Also I'm kinda grasping at straws here, since two Façades just ends the match because holy shit I should have read the whole description for Disable

 

[VirajVora]

Ok then,

Sleep Talk (Facade+Facade combination, Rock Slide+Rock Slide Combination, Shadow Claw+Shadow Claw Combination, Superpower + Superpower Combination) - CoolDown - Sleep Talk (Facade, Rock Slide, Shadow Claw, Aerial Ace)

If Storm is not asleep at A3, use Facade...

If Hypnosis misses, start the turn by Facade-Facade-Facade...


If SleepTalk of Superpower happens, I will lose 38 energy in 1 attack...

Flavor

Action 1

Vulpix, surveying its options, realizes that it is in a poor position and thus attempts an incantation to subdue its foe. Unlike its last try, this spell is successful, sending Rufflet into a state of deep sleep.

Action 2

Relieved that it now has a bit of breathing, Vulpix soon takes advantage of Rufflet's incapacitated condition by blasting it with a gout of fire that the latter has no chance of dodging, as the avian Pokemon remains asleep.

Action 3

Rufflet awakes with a start, just in time to see a fireball flying toward it courtesy of Vulpix. Although it was hit head-on by this fiery projectile, Rufflet is still standing, and then charges at its adversary and brings it to the ground with a powerful attack, although Vulpix is still conscious—but only just.

Flavor

Action 1

Rufflet attempts to finish the battle immediately by swooping towards its opponent, but Vulpix manages to avoid the attack by quickly burrowing underground. However, the fox's counterattack promptly fails, as its airborne enemy is able to avoid its emerging strike with ease.

Action 2

Now in a vulnerable position above ground, Vulpix decides that its best course of action is to create a protective barrier; this proves true, as Rufflet dives in for another attack, but is deflected by its target's guarding shield.

Action 3

In a last-ditch effort, Vulpix gathers itself momentarily before unleashing a powerful stream of fire that floods over Rufflet, knocking it out of the sky. Rufflet manages to survive this mighty attack, though, struggles to its feet, takes to the air, and finally crashes into Vulpix, knocking it unconscious.
