Lol, CB STAB outrage is almost as good as CB technician STAB Bullet Punch.... Minus the priority, ofcourse

Vs

Start of turn 8
Flygon used Outrage!
It's not very effective...
A critical hit!

Flygon calmed down!
Flygon became confused!
ShinyWeavile: lol
ShinyWeavile: a crit will hurt anything
acetrainershaun: Nope lol I was kinda expecting Stone edge.

I don't carry stone edge.... for good reason, too. Fire punch allows me to have perfect coverage along with my 2 STAB moves. actually, fire punch and outrage hit neutral on everything except heatran, who is destroyed by EQ.

ShinyWeavile: i dont use stone edge

Now he has in D-nite..... what do i do? I don't think flygon outspeeds, and even if it does, D-nite has Extremespeed to finish me off.....

Vs

The foe's Dragonite used ExtremeSpeed!
ShinyWeavile: i hate it
Flygon lost 88 HP! (29% of its health)
Flygon fainted!

I can hope to stall for a while..... but Skarm won't last for long if it Ddances up.....
Vs

Start of turn 11
The foe's Dragonite used Dragon Dance!
The foe's Dragonite's Attack rose!
The foe's Dragonite's Speed rose!

Skarmory used Stealth Rock!
Pointed stones float in the air around acetrainershaun's team!

Meh, couldn't resist. Now, i feel so stupid for not realizing he was on his last pokemon, and that this would be pointless......


Start of turn 12
The foe's Dragonite used Dragon Dance!
The foe's Dragonite's Attack rose!
The foe's Dragonite's Speed rose!

Skarmory used Whirlwind!
But it failed!

ShinyWeavile: i feel so stupid now.....
Skarmory restored a little HP using its Leftovers!

By now it's at +3 atk and +3 speed. Nothing on my team will evr be able to outspeed something like that, let alone survive something from it.

yeah, it's over for me..... The only thing i can do is Ice beam in vain.

Vs

Start of turn 15
The foe's Dragonite used ThunderPunch!
It's super effective!
ShinyWeavile: i might lose thios....
Milotic lost 390 HP! (99% of its health)

Milotic used Ice Beam!
It's super effective!
ShinyWeavile: nvm
The foe's Dragonite lost 36% of its health!
The foe's Dragonite fainted!

ShinyWeavile won the battle!

Woah. I don't have any comments to say here, except that I am never replacing milotic. It survived a +3 Super Effective thunder punch, and it KO'd with ice beam in return....wow....


So.... Milotic is awesome.... obviously.... How did this thing get stuck in UU?

Awesome points in this battle:
1. Milotic surviving a +3 super effective Thunder Punch.... and it turns out D-nite was adamant.
2. Weavile ripping that ninjask to pieces.... in one hit..... why no sash?



Stupid things:
1. Me wasting 2 turns setting up rocks and trying to use whirlwind.... If i hadn't done that, I might've KO'd D-nite before it KO'd me.
2. Using ice punch on D-nite..... and having him switch into meta to take the hit.
3. Acetrainershaun not going for one more Ddance.



Anyway, rate this however you feel like. I'll add sprites later.

A more helpful responce: pick a better battle to warstory. If you start to destroy an opponent because he refuses to switch and then he beats you because you let him get up to +3/+3 for no reason and then you just survive and KO back then it isn't really a good battle to story. Pick something full of strategy, mind games and with little hax. Check the warstory archive.
 
This is my first warstory, so don't accuse me of crappy writing....
Saw this, and decided to only skim this warstory.

The commentary didn't help at all, and I couldn't tell what was going on without sprites. The battle had no good prediction from what I saw, and the format was really, really bland.
 
I think your formatting could use some work. In the future, try displaying a horizontal preview of both teams at the top of your post. You should also consider showing the sprites of each Pokemon matchup throughout the battle and providing more insightful commentary after each turn.
 
It needs work I'll admit, always remember that visual representation is what makes or breaks any War Story. Being able to understand and visualize what each player is thinking is the key to a good story.

You've got potential, just keep working on it!
 
Yeah, the battle wasn't really all that great, no sprites and lacking commentary made it hard to follow as well. Sorry. Maybe next time try to get a better battle with more thought in it and it could go better?
