Arena: Relic Castle
Hidden away for centuries, a monster resides at the bottom of the ancient castle. And he is not happy to be disturbed.
Sand pours down from the higher levels in the gigantic throne room of the Relic Castle in Unova. But, that is not nearly so impressive as the set of columns and stone stairs leading up to the ancient throne, or the scope of the chamber. And those fail to capture the potential danger of the angry Volcarona hovering above you.
The arena revolves around both the natural layout of the room, and Volcarona intimidating non-bugs and assisting bug-types in his home.
-No natural water
-Hail, Rain Dance, and Sunny Day may not naturally be used
-Sandstorm costs three less energy to summon
-Trapping moves cost two less energy and last for an additional round
-Any rock move that requires natural rocks used by a non-bug type will result in Volcarona (neutral nature) attacking the user with Fire Spin. This shall be interpreted as Rock Throw, Rock Slide, Rock Tomb, Stone Edge, and Stealth Rock.
-Swarm is automatically active for all Pokemon who have it
-Fly and Bounce will only evade contact moves during their semi-invulnerable phase
-Volcarona is a proponent of honorable combat. As such, it will use String Shot on any combatant forced out by an opponent through Roar, Whirlwind, Circle Throw, or Dragon Tail. This will lower the speed of the affected Pokemon by one, but prevent them from being forcibly switched out.
