Hi I'm Fuhreena and this is my first post here. I have been playing Pokemon since Red and Blue versions but only recently got into competitive battling. I made a team that had been working out pretty well on the Pokemon Online Server, so I decided to try it out on the Smogon server. My first match proved to be pretty interesting, so without further ado, here it is. (The word "here" is a link to the replay just in case you wanna see it rather than read it.)
(Leftovers/life orb recoil will be omitted after the first occurrence, and my commentary will be in bold)
My Team:
Opponent's Team:
Battle between JayblazrxX and Fuhreena started!
Tier: Dream World OU
Mode: Singles
Variation: +15, -17
Rule: Rated
Rule: Sleep Clause
Rule: Species Clause
Rule: Wifi Battle
Fuhreena sent out Rozz! (Gigalith)
JayblazrxX sent out Deoxys-D!
The foe's Deoxys-D is exerting its Pressure!
@100% (D-FENCE!) vs.
@100% (Hopes to get his rocks off)
I run a Custap/Explosion set on my Gigalith so I am almost guaranteed to get my rocks up and then do some damage. I haven't gone against too many Deoxys-D's (one in fact) so I don't really have any idea what to expect from it.
Start of turn 1
The foe's Deoxys-D used Thunder Wave!
Rozz is paralyzed! It may be unable to move!
Rozz used Stealth Rock!
Pointed stones float in the air around JayblazrxX's team!
@100% (D-FENCE!) vs.
@100% (Oh no you di'int!)
And I am quite satisfied with how that turn ended, as being slower doesn't matter to me, as the only thing I want to do now is explode and hopefully take a chunk of his health down with me.
Start of turn 2
The foe's Deoxys-D used Stealth Rock!
Pointed stones float in the air around Fuhreena's team!
Rozz is paralyzed! It can't move!
@100% (umad bro?) vs.
@100% (Bzzzzt)
And of course that happens, I have the worst luck when it comes to these things. It isn't that big of a deal though, as he would've gotten rocks up anyway if I exploded and he can't OHKO me due to my sturdy, so I should still get to blow up in his face.
Start of turn 3
The foe's Deoxys-D used Night Shade!
Rozz lost 100 HP! (35% of its health)
Rozz used Explosion!
Rozz fainted!
The foe's Deoxys-D lost 72% of its health!
The foe's Deoxys-D restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
Fuhreena sent out Vaydurr! (Gengar)
Pointed stones dug into Vaydurr!
@34% (Well that hurt.) vs.
@0% (Goodbye cruel world!) --->
@88% (Aren't all ghosts haunters?)
Night shade did nothing and Gigalith fulfilled her duty. I figure that Gengar will be my best bet here, so he comes in. Now I am betting that he is going to attempt to paralyze Gengar like he did to Gigalith, so I am going to get a substitute up.
Start of turn 4
Vaydurr used Substitute!
Vaydurr made a substitute!
The foe's Deoxys-D used Thunder Wave!
Vaydurr's substitute blocked Thunder Wave!
@39% (Oh S—t!) vs.
@88% (Feeling pretty safe)
I do a little victory dance in my head because my prediction was right (this doesn't happen often, believe me), and now I am just going to put the poor defender out of his misery.
Start of turn 5
Vaydurr used Shadow Ball!
It's super effective!
The foe's Deoxys-D lost 39% of its health!
The foe's Deoxys-D fainted!
Vaydurr is hurt by its Life Orb!
JayblazrxX sent out Donphan!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Donphan!
@0% (Ow.) --->
@ 94% (I got this!) vs.
@78% (Good riddance!)
I have no idea why he would bring a Donphan in on my Gengar, maybe he forgot about the rocks cancelling his Sturdy? Well anyways, my Gengar knows Giga Drain,and he is obviously faster than Donphan, so I should OHKO him before gets to do anything and get a nice little health bonus!
Start of turn 6
The foe's Donphan used Ice Shard!
Vaydurr's substitute faded!
Vaydurr used Giga Drain!
It's super effective!
The foe's Donphan lost 93% of its health!
The foe's Donphan fainted!
The foe's Donphan had its energy drained!
JayblazrxX sent out Mismagius!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Mismagius!
@0% (How can I learn an Ice move?) --->
@ 88% (imma Sexy Witch) vs.
@90% (Thanks for the health!)
Okay then, apparently Donphan can learn Ice Shard. How does that work I wonder? Oh well, I am SO happy that I decided to get a sub up on Deoxys now, as that turn would've gone a lot differently without it. My opponent brings in Mismagius, which is a pokemon that I have never seen in competitive battling before so I have no idea what it can do or how fast it is. I do know, however, that Gengar is pretty freaking fast so I am just going to stay in and hope that he is faster than the spectral witch.
Start of turn 7
Vaydurr used Shadow Ball!
It's super effective!
The foe's Mismagius lost 87% of its health!
The foe's Mismagius fainted!
JayblazrxX sent out Heracross!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Heracross!
@0% (Avada Keda--) --->
@ 75% (I dance alone) vs.
@80% (Feeling pretty good about himself)
I am honestly shocked that I am doing as well as I am. I mean, up 5-3 seven turns in? I know that Heracross got Moxie from the Dream World and have encountered quite a few that are scarfed. Also, Gengar has done quite well up to this point, and I wanna save him for later in the match. So I switch in Gastrodon, who should be able to take anything Heracross can throw at him.
Start of turn 8
Fuhreena called Vaydurr back!
Fuhreena sent out G.I. Joe! (Gastrodon-East)
Pointed stones dug into G.I. Joe!
The foe's Heracross used Night Slash!
G.I. Joe lost 84 HP! (19% of its health)
G.I. Joe restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
@ 75% (Dang it) vs.
@80% (See ya later Buggy) --->
@81% (Wow, that tingled.)
Alright, everything went as planned and now there are two possible outcomes. Well, three. He can use Night Slash again in which case I would use Stockpile; He could prove me wrong about him being scarfed and use a different move in which case I would still use stockpile; Or he could switch out into a counter to Gastrodon in which case I would use Stockpile. So I am just going to go ahead and use stockpile.
Start of turn 9
JayblazrxX called Heracross back!
JayblazrxX sent out Jolteon!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Jolteon!
G.I. Joe used Stockpile!
G.I. Joe stockpiled 1!
G.I. Joe's Defense rose!
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. rose!
The foe's Jolteon restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
@ 88% (Scuttling away like a cockroach in the light) --->
@94% (Let's do this.) vs.
@87% (Preparing for the zombie apocalypse)
Well then. This I didn't expect. Why would anyone switch a Jolteon into a Gastrodon? He walls it completely! But then as I was laughing and about to click Stockpile again, the memory of Donphan and the unexpected Ice Shard surfaced from the recesses of my mind. What could Jolteon have that would make it a threat to Gastrodon? The answer hit me like a bolt of lightning from the heavens. Hidden Power Grass! You sneaky little doggy, I'm wise to your tricks. The only thing that can handle a switch into Jolteon and be able to hit him again before dying would be my Infernape, so in he comes.
Start of turn 10
Fuhreena called G.I. Joe back!
Fuhreena sent out Negro! (Infernape)
Pointed stones dug into Negro!
The foe's Jolteon used Hidden Power!
It's not very effective...
Negro lost 57 HP! (19% of its health)
@ 100% (Kiss my Grass) vs.
@87% (That was close) --->
@81% (Float Like a Butterfly)
Before I get any grief about my Infernape's nickname, I would like to clear that up. Infernape is a monkey, and monkeys are usually black which is what Negro means. I don't mean it in a racist way at all, it is just funny to see some people's reactions. Anyways, it appears that I was right about the hidden power type and am now going to take full advantage of my Choice Banded-Iron Fist boosted Mach Punch which should take out the Jolteon, because Jolteon are frail, right?
Start of turn 11
Negro used Mach Punch!
The foe's Jolteon lost 60% of its health!
The foe's Jolteon used Thunderbolt!
Negro lost 201 HP! (68% of its health)
Negro fainted!
Fuhreena sent out Vaydurr! (Gengar)
Pointed stones dug into Vaydurr!
@ 100% (Kiss my Grass) vs.
@0% (Sting like a b---) --->
@68% (BOO!)
I just want to say that after this match, Infernape was replaced with a Choice Band Scizor, who has since become one of my new favorites. So after Infernape's huge disappointment, I brought Gengar back out, who could outspeed (so I thought) and OHKO with Shadow Ball and get me back some momentum.
Start of turn 12
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
It's super effective!
Vaydurr lost 178 HP! (67% of its health)
Vaydurr fainted!
Fuhreena sent out Miss Birdie! (Altaria)
Pointed stones dug into Miss Birdie!
Miss Birdie has Cloud Nine!
@ 46% (I'm like a yellow sonic!) vs.
@0% (But I'm already a ghost!) --->
@75% (I'm so happy!)
Well now that I know Jolteon's entire set (Substitute, Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, and HP Grass), I look over my remaining team members and notice that Altaria can take all of those and finish the stupid doggy off. I don't use Altaria in a way that I have ever seen anyone else use it, it is specifically to stop Excadrill in the sand, Venusaur in the sun, etc. because Cloud Nine stops their ability. I don't think that Jolteon (especially at 46%) can take a Specs-boosted Draco Meteor after I tank whatever hit he sends my way.
Start of turn 13
The foe's Jolteon used Hidden Power!
It's super effective!
Miss Birdie lost 219 HP! (75% of its health)
Miss Birdie fainted!
Fuhreena sent out G.I. Joe! (Gastrodon-East)
Pointed stones dug into G.I. Joe!
@ 52% (I tricked you!) vs.
@0% (Why God why?!) --->
@87% (Stupid freaking dog)
At this point I thought to myself, "WTF?!" It turns out that he bluffed me out when Jolteon switched into Gastrodon and rather than carrying HP Grass like I thought, it carried HP Ice. I was honestly shocked! So NOW that I know Jolteon's whole set, I of course realize that Gastro can handle him easily. So I send him in and begin to Stockpile.
Start of turn 14
The foe's Jolteon used Substitute!
The foe's Jolteon made a substitute!
G.I. Joe used Stockpile!
G.I. Joe stockpiled 1!
G.I. Joe's Defense rose!
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. rose!
@ 33% (I'm like a yellow sonic!) vs.
@93% (Buying water at WalMart)
Oh no! A substitute! Whatever shall I do? Oh, I know, stockpile again!
Start of turn 15
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 62 HP! (14% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Stockpile!
G.I. Joe stockpiled 2!
G.I. Joe's Defense rose!
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. rose!
@ 39% (How do you like that?) vs.
@85% (Buying nonperishable food at WalMart)
[Sarcasm]Wow that really hurt![/Sarcasm] My opponent is either going to switch (which I doubt since he put up a Substitute) or stay in and hit me with another one of his measly attacks. In both situations, Stockpile would be my move of choice, so here goes nothing!
Start of turn 16
The foe's Jolteon used Hidden Power!
G.I. Joe lost 43 HP! (10% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Stockpile!
G.I. Joe stockpiled 3!
G.I. Joe's Defense rose!
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. rose!
@ 45% (Come on Crit!) vs.
@81% (Buying batteries at WalMart)
And he uses the Hidden Power that I so feared earlier for no reason and it barely puts a scratch in Gastrodon as I get my last stockpile in. Now it's time to bust his substitute with my only attacking move, scald.
Start of turn 17
JayblazrxX called Jolteon back!
JayblazrxX sent out Heracross!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Heracross!
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Heracross lost 30% of its health!
@ 45% (Running away with his tail between his legs) --->
@45% (Looking mean) vs.
@87% (Finally attacking)
After all of that, he switches Jolteon out? Well, I'm not complaining as I lets me get a free hit on Heracross. It stands to reason that I should attack again, so that's what I do.
Start of turn 18
The foe's Heracross used Close Combat!
G.I. Joe lost 87 HP! (20% of its health)
The foe's Heracross's Defense fell!
The foe's Heracross's Sp. Def. fell!
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Heracross lost 44% of its health!
The foe's Heracross was burned!
The foe's Heracross is hurt by its burn!
The foe's Heracross fainted!
JayblazrxX sent out Victini!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Victini!
@ 0% (Extra Crispy) --->
@75% (Bet you can't guess what I'm gonna do) vs.
@73% (Well this should be easy)
At first when I saw the 44% I thought the stupid bug was going to hang in there. Not that that would've been a big deal, but then I got the burn from Scald and it finished him off for me. He brings in Victini to replace Heracross, which-in my experience-usually carry Choice Items. Expecting the worst (Choice Banded V-Create), I use Recover to heal off any damage he may have done.
Start of turn 19
The foe's Victini used U-turn!
G.I. Joe lost 44 HP! (10% of its health)
JayblazrxX called Victini back!
JayblazrxX sent out Jolteon!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Jolteon!
G.I. Joe used Recover!
G.I. Joe regained health!
@ 75% (Listening to N-Sync) --->
@39% (I'm BAAAACCKK) vs.
@100% (Why hello there!)
Now I am back up to 100%, and the stupid dog that killed half my team is sent back out after Victini's measly U-turn. It is finally time for him to die.
Start of turn 20
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 38 HP! (8% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Jolteon lost 31% of its health!
The foe's Jolteon restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
@ 14% (Just Kill Me Already) vs.
@81% (Enjoying vengeance)
Now at this point, it's tied 2-2, but I consider myself to have the advantage, because my Gastrodon is at +3 to both defenses, and when Victini comes back in it will be at 50%, and my other remaining pokemon is Gyarados, whose Waterfall should OHKO Victini if by some stupid hax, Gastrodon manages to die. Since I am pretty much guaranteed a win at this point, I decide to let Jolteon die a slow poisonous death since he killed most of my team.
Start of turn 21
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 41 HP! (9% of its health)
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. fell!
G.I. Joe used Toxic!
The foe's Jolteon was poisoned!
The foe's Jolteon restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
The foe's Jolteon is hurt by poison!
@ 14% (Pain and suffering…) vs.
@81% (Laughing evilly)
So I could Recover and stall him out just through Toxic, but I am playing in the middle of class and the teacher just looked at me funny, so I decided to just finish him off quickly and used Scald just to finish him off.
Start of turn 22
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 46 HP! (10% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Jolteon lost 19% of its health!
The foe's Jolteon fainted!
JayblazrxX sent out Victini!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Victini!
@ 75% (PWNED) --->
@50% (I'm Screwed) vs.
@100% (More like VicTINY)
Ding-Dong! The dog is dead. Which old dog? The stupid dog! Ding Dong! The stupid dog is dead!
Sorry, I got off topic there for a second. Anyways, Jolteon finally fell and Victini is sent out to replace him. At this point in time, I am feeling pretty confident that the win is mine. I mean look at the situation. The score is 2-1 and it's two water types vs. one fire type at 50% health. How could I possibly lose?
Start of turn 23
The foe's Victini used Zen Headbutt!
A critical hit!
G.I. Joe lost 379 HP! (88% of its health)
G.I. Joe fainted!
Fuhreena sent out DancingQueen! (Gyarados)
Pointed stones dug into DancingQueen!
@50% (I'm still screwed) vs.
@ 0% (God I hate hax!) --->
@75% (I'll avenge you Joe!)
F THIS GAME! Okay, calm down. Woo-sah, I'm calm now. It's still okay, Gyarados can outspeed and kill the stupid fairy (at least I think it's a fairy), unless it's scarfed. And in that case, I should be able to take a Zen Headbutt and kill it with waterfall. So, I've still got this.
Start of turn 24
The foe's Victini used Zen Headbutt!
DancingQueen lost 223 HP! (67% of its health)
DancingQueen flinched!
DancingQueen restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
@50% (Maybe I'm not screwed!) vs.
@75% (Are you kidding me?)
ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?! I just did the math on that and using a 6% critical hit rate and a 20% chance of flinch, the chances of what just happened happening is approximately 1.2%. The poke-gods really do hate me! Well, now the only chance of me winning is Zen Headbutt missing. The chances of this happening are 10%, so it is just under ten times more likely to happen then the crit followed by the flinch (which, I just realized, is false. Due to Victini's ability Victory Star, Zen Headbutt couldn't have missed). I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Start of turn 25
The foe's Victini used Zen Headbutt!
DancingQueen lost 46 HP! (13% of its health)
DancingQueen fainted!
JayblazrxX won the battle!
And of course it hits, I hope that you enjoyed this battle as much as I hated it. And just in case you missed it at the beginning, or just want to watch it after reading it and are too lazy to scroll back to the top, here it is.
Props: Both Jolteon and Gengar for pretty much owning the other team
Slops: Me blindly assuming that it was Hidden Power Grass, and Mismagius not getting to do anything
MVP=
I've gotta give the MVP to Victini, as much as I hate to do it. Without its phenomenal hax, my opponent stood no chance of victory.

Pointed stones dug into Miss Birdie!
Miss Birdie has Cloud Nine!
Well now that I know Jolteon's entire set (Substitute, Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, and HP Grass), I look over my remaining team members and notice that Altaria can take all of those and finish the stupid doggy off. I don't use Altaria in a way that I have ever seen anyone else use it, it is specifically to stop Excadrill in the sand, Venusaur in the sun, etc. because Cloud Nine stops their ability. I don't think that Jolteon (especially at 46%) can take a Specs-boosted Draco Meteor after I tank whatever hit he sends my way.
Start of turn 13
The foe's Jolteon used Hidden Power!
It's super effective!
Miss Birdie lost 219 HP! (75% of its health)
Miss Birdie fainted!
Fuhreena sent out G.I. Joe! (Gastrodon-East)
Pointed stones dug into G.I. Joe!
At this point I thought to myself, "WTF?!" It turns out that he bluffed me out when Jolteon switched into Gastrodon and rather than carrying HP Grass like I thought, it carried HP Ice. I was honestly shocked! So NOW that I know Jolteon's whole set, I of course realize that Gastro can handle him easily. So I send him in and begin to Stockpile.
Start of turn 14
The foe's Jolteon used Substitute!
The foe's Jolteon made a substitute!
G.I. Joe used Stockpile!
G.I. Joe stockpiled 1!
G.I. Joe's Defense rose!
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. rose!
Oh no! A substitute! Whatever shall I do? Oh, I know, stockpile again!
Start of turn 15
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 62 HP! (14% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Stockpile!
G.I. Joe stockpiled 2!
G.I. Joe's Defense rose!
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. rose!
[Sarcasm]Wow that really hurt![/Sarcasm] My opponent is either going to switch (which I doubt since he put up a Substitute) or stay in and hit me with another one of his measly attacks. In both situations, Stockpile would be my move of choice, so here goes nothing!
Start of turn 16
The foe's Jolteon used Hidden Power!
G.I. Joe lost 43 HP! (10% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Stockpile!
G.I. Joe stockpiled 3!
G.I. Joe's Defense rose!
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. rose!
And he uses the Hidden Power that I so feared earlier for no reason and it barely puts a scratch in Gastrodon as I get my last stockpile in. Now it's time to bust his substitute with my only attacking move, scald.
Start of turn 17
JayblazrxX called Jolteon back!
JayblazrxX sent out Heracross!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Heracross!
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Heracross lost 30% of its health!
After all of that, he switches Jolteon out? Well, I'm not complaining as I lets me get a free hit on Heracross. It stands to reason that I should attack again, so that's what I do.
Start of turn 18
The foe's Heracross used Close Combat!
G.I. Joe lost 87 HP! (20% of its health)
The foe's Heracross's Defense fell!
The foe's Heracross's Sp. Def. fell!
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Heracross lost 44% of its health!
The foe's Heracross was burned!
The foe's Heracross is hurt by its burn!
The foe's Heracross fainted!
JayblazrxX sent out Victini!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Victini!
At first when I saw the 44% I thought the stupid bug was going to hang in there. Not that that would've been a big deal, but then I got the burn from Scald and it finished him off for me. He brings in Victini to replace Heracross, which-in my experience-usually carry Choice Items. Expecting the worst (Choice Banded V-Create), I use Recover to heal off any damage he may have done.
Start of turn 19
The foe's Victini used U-turn!
G.I. Joe lost 44 HP! (10% of its health)
JayblazrxX called Victini back!
JayblazrxX sent out Jolteon!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Jolteon!
G.I. Joe used Recover!
G.I. Joe regained health!
Now I am back up to 100%, and the stupid dog that killed half my team is sent back out after Victini's measly U-turn. It is finally time for him to die.
Start of turn 20
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 38 HP! (8% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Jolteon lost 31% of its health!
The foe's Jolteon restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
Now at this point, it's tied 2-2, but I consider myself to have the advantage, because my Gastrodon is at +3 to both defenses, and when Victini comes back in it will be at 50%, and my other remaining pokemon is Gyarados, whose Waterfall should OHKO Victini if by some stupid hax, Gastrodon manages to die. Since I am pretty much guaranteed a win at this point, I decide to let Jolteon die a slow poisonous death since he killed most of my team.
Start of turn 21
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 41 HP! (9% of its health)
G.I. Joe's Sp. Def. fell!
G.I. Joe used Toxic!
The foe's Jolteon was poisoned!
The foe's Jolteon restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
The foe's Jolteon is hurt by poison!
So I could Recover and stall him out just through Toxic, but I am playing in the middle of class and the teacher just looked at me funny, so I decided to just finish him off quickly and used Scald just to finish him off.
Start of turn 22
The foe's Jolteon used Shadow Ball!
G.I. Joe lost 46 HP! (10% of its health)
G.I. Joe used Scald!
The foe's Jolteon lost 19% of its health!
The foe's Jolteon fainted!
JayblazrxX sent out Victini!
Pointed stones dug into the foe's Victini!
Ding-Dong! The dog is dead. Which old dog? The stupid dog! Ding Dong! The stupid dog is dead!
Sorry, I got off topic there for a second. Anyways, Jolteon finally fell and Victini is sent out to replace him. At this point in time, I am feeling pretty confident that the win is mine. I mean look at the situation. The score is 2-1 and it's two water types vs. one fire type at 50% health. How could I possibly lose?
Start of turn 23
The foe's Victini used Zen Headbutt!
A critical hit!
G.I. Joe lost 379 HP! (88% of its health)
G.I. Joe fainted!
Fuhreena sent out DancingQueen! (Gyarados)
Pointed stones dug into DancingQueen!
F THIS GAME! Okay, calm down. Woo-sah, I'm calm now. It's still okay, Gyarados can outspeed and kill the stupid fairy (at least I think it's a fairy), unless it's scarfed. And in that case, I should be able to take a Zen Headbutt and kill it with waterfall. So, I've still got this.
Start of turn 24
The foe's Victini used Zen Headbutt!
DancingQueen lost 223 HP! (67% of its health)
DancingQueen flinched!
DancingQueen restored a little HP using its Leftovers!
ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?! I just did the math on that and using a 6% critical hit rate and a 20% chance of flinch, the chances of what just happened happening is approximately 1.2%. The poke-gods really do hate me! Well, now the only chance of me winning is Zen Headbutt missing. The chances of this happening are 10%, so it is just under ten times more likely to happen then the crit followed by the flinch (which, I just realized, is false. Due to Victini's ability Victory Star, Zen Headbutt couldn't have missed). I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Start of turn 25
The foe's Victini used Zen Headbutt!
DancingQueen lost 46 HP! (13% of its health)
DancingQueen fainted!
JayblazrxX won the battle!
And of course it hits, I hope that you enjoyed this battle as much as I hated it. And just in case you missed it at the beginning, or just want to watch it after reading it and are too lazy to scroll back to the top, here it is.
Props: Both Jolteon and Gengar for pretty much owning the other team
Slops: Me blindly assuming that it was Hidden Power Grass, and Mismagius not getting to do anything
MVP=
I've gotta give the MVP to Victini, as much as I hate to do it. Without its phenomenal hax, my opponent stood no chance of victory.
