Wendy loosed a tightly packed group of sharpened leaves directly at Apollo. The leaves struck at the pokemon, opening long wounds in the soft flesh of the creature.

"Let's plan ahead. I've borrowed Juvia's Dawn Stone for you here, Lucy."
"Would she mind?"
"Don't worry, she said it's alright. Also, get into that Loudred's mind, he has some unique telepathic powers that might be of use."
Lucy (Kirlia @ Dawn Stone, 3/3/3/2, Trace Soundproof) : Will-o-Wisp > Psychic > Dazzling Gleam IF Apollo-Loudred is under the effects of Protective/Evasive actions, THEN replace the first instance with Future Sight and the second with Calm Mind, pushing the remaining queue back each time.

Lucy waved a silver key in front of herself which opened a celestial gate behind Apollo. The creature that came out flew in through Apollo's right ear and out through the left before returning to Lucy. The spirit implanted the Loudred's Soundproof ability into Lucy's mind.
[Lucy has Soundproof]
[-6 Energy to Lucy]
Lucy opened a her mouth and rained an extremely light shade of blue ball of flames towards the Loudred. The flames surrounded the pokemon, and though it caused no damage, when the fire dissipated, the Loudred was left with a nasty burn.
[Apollo is Burned]
[-7 Energy to Lucy]
Steam began to billow from Apollo's over-sized ears as he let out some pent-up aggression. The Loudred beat Lucy with it's fists with extra power from seeing her more healthy than he felt.
[Frustration deals 17.5 damage to Lucy]
[-6 Energy to Apollo]
Lucy used her psychic power to pick the Loudred from the ground and toss him around like a plaything. A faint blue aura surrounded the pokemon as he soared through the air and smacked into the ground.
[Psychic deals 13.5 damage to Apollo]
[Burn deals 2 damage to Apollo]
[-5.5 Energy to Lucy]
Apollo's left ear began to shiver and turn blue as it froze the falling rain. The ice collected in a small ball of energy before being shot directly at Lucy in a straight beam.
[Ice Beam deals 9 damage to Lucy]
[-7 Energy to Apollo]
Lucy let out a bright gleam of light and smacked Apollo in the face while he was blinded (because how does light deal damage?)
[Dazzling Gleam deals 12.5 damage to Apollo]
[Burn deals 2 damage to Apollo]

The rain slowed to a stop and the clouds cleared as the weather changed once more.
Unfortunately for me you calced the second Frustration as if it scored a crit, so it should have only dealt 11.5 DMG, leaving Kirlia with 54 HP left, not 48. Alright Apollo, just hammer away until you go.
Fire Blast -> Fire Blast -> Fire Blast
If Fire Blast is disabled, change all remaining uses to Frustration
If successful P/E move, change that action to Howl and change the following action to Frustration

Actually, luckily for you, I c+p'd the calculation, but I didn't quite take enough damage away, the move only deals 14.5 ;eaving Kirlia with 48, agreed?
You're both wrong :/ The first Frustration did 17.5 damage due to crit, yes, the second Frustration did 11.5 damage (ww is correct) because without the crit, there's the Burn status deducting another 3 from the damage. However, 90-(17.5+11.5+9) = 52 HP left for Kirlia.
"Hmm, this would be a dilemma, but I'll have to buy time for another change in weather."

[-12 Energy to Apollo]
Lucy opened a celestial gate and stepped through to avoid the final Fire Blast from Apollo. When she stepped out the other side, she heard the end of a primitive yet terrifying roar from Apollo. Lucy realized too late that she had teleported away from a non-damaging move.

Brave Bird -> Wing Attack -> Brave Bird
If successful P/E move AND you don't have double team clones up, change that action to Double Team (3 clones) and push back
If Pain Split AND Kirlia is not Taunted, change that action to Taunt
You forgot to factor in Rare Candy, which gives Zubat Rank 5 Atk instead of Rank 3 and adds 1 BAP to all Flying-type attacks, meaning that both Brave Bird and Wing Attack deal 4 extra DMG.
By my calcs, that means that Kirlia didn't have enough EN to use Pain Split.
WW is correct on Zubat-man's Rare Candy part. So Brave Bird A1 does 11+3+1+(7.5-4.5) = 18 damage, Wing Attack does 6+3+1+(7.5-4.5) = 13 damage, plus 2 actions of Hail (4 damage total), leaves Lucy the Kirlia with 2 HP left. Then Lucy spends 7 EN on TWave, 7 EN on Future Sight (Psychic STAB, plus being SE against Zubat's Poison-type means it's actually going to deal [12+3+(4.5-3)]*1.5 = 24.75 damage) means 34 EN left on Lucy, rounding down. Now comes the FUN part. After Hail, Zubat should have 86 HP left. EN cost for Pain Split is 6+(86-2)/3 = 34 whopping EN!
...... So Lucy did EN KO herself. My fault for not taking Rare Candy into account :( That said, Zubat-man is still leeched, which means it should have 59 HP, 90 EN left (Brave Bird and Wing Attack costs 1 less EN each due to STAB, and Taunt wouldn't pull off since Lucy fainted anyway). As a plus, there's a Future Sight hanging over Zubat-man, and there's a 20% paralysis too).
"NO!!! If I had came in earlier, Lucy would... would... you... YOU!!"
Erza (Bolderdash @ Focus Sash) : Stealth Rock > Ancient Power > Paleo Wave IF Batman-Zubat uses Toxic, THEN replace that action with Substitute (15HP), pushing remaining queue back ONCE.

Round Eight
Action One
Batman flew high into the sky, slowly, being pelted by falling shards of ice. As Batman dropped vertically from the sky, he burst into a flaming ball, hurtling towards the ground at an incredible speed. He flung his wings out to guide his body of a horizontal plane at the last moment, the flames making way for a blue pulsing energy. Batman was still picking up speed when he made contact with Lucy with an amount of force that could slice through a large boulder. The impact jarred Batman and send him reeling back towards his trainer.
While Batman was distracted from the high impact attack, Lucy fumbled with her keys for a moment before picking one and carved through the air in front of her. Left behind from the key's rapid slice was a thin veil of electricity. This jumped to the Zubat and entered its body, searching for a way to ground itself. Several of Batman's muscles seized up and he fell from the air with a soft thud on the ground. The Pokemon did manage to leave the ground once more, however its wings were flapping erratically and the Zubat was no longer stable in the air.
Action One Conclusion
Batman | Lucy

Action Two
Lucy focused her mind and called upon a mysterious psychic force. a light purple aura was visible around her head as she closed her eyes and called out again, this time stronger, louder, though remaining silent. Batman's erratic flapping was almost enough to put out Lucy's focus, but finally, she finished her pact and the purple aura vaporized as quickly as it had appeared. Lucy opened her eyes.
Batman was already flapping towards the Kirlia when she opened her eyes. Within seconds, he was near her, swooping down with both wings outstretched. The Zubat's right wing collided with Lucy's dainty torso, which sent Batman into an uncontrolled spin. Lucy quickly spun around to face her opponent, only to see him fall to the ground once more. When he finally managed to get himself off the ground, he didn't attack her again, leaving her a moment's respite.

Action Three Lucy exhausted herself when she linked her mind with the flailing Zubat's. Once a secure mental link was connected, she shuddered at the inappropriate thoughts involving herself that were buried in Batman's mind. She delved deeper into the Pokemon's mind, breaking down several walls before finally reaching a level where herself and Batman now felt what the other Pokemon felt. Lucy felt her own body repairing itself alongside Batman's body deteriorating. Soon, a headache worked its way into Lucy's head. The pain she was beginning to feel from Batman was overwhelming and beginning to break her focus. She became aware of a trickle of blood running from her nose. Finally, the Zubat's mind snapped closed, almost catching her own inside. The telepathic link was broken.
Lucy tried to establish a telepathic link with Batman, but she did not have enough Energy to. She gave up and slumped back to the ground.
Batman began hurling abuse at Lucy and describing some of his inappropriate thoughts. Lucy made her best effort to ignore it, though the bat began flapping around, mocking her.
"I'm so cool, I have a purple aura around my head"
"Look at me, I'm digging into your head!"
"Hey Lucy, do those legs go all the way up?"
"Nice attire, though you would look better without it!"
"Look at me, I'm Lucy. I am a character from Fairy Tail. I'm so important. much wow"
Lucy snapped and her anger dictated that she would only attack that damn bat.

ZhengTann please post our orders for the next round waterwarrior is second
I will try to be a little more punctual putting these rounds up, I'm just trying to organize the next three years of my life at the moment.
Bring a couple of things to attention:
1. Erza is not required yet as Lucy still has 2HP remaining. This is due to the following:
Attack Rank Bonus: calculated using the attacker's relevant stat (Attack or Special Attack). Physical moves are affected by the Attack Stat, while Special moves are affected by the Special Attack stat. For every Attack Rank up to and including 6, the Attack Rank Bonus is raised by 1.5, and for every Attack Rank past 6, the Attack Rank Bonus is raised by 1.
Bolded is the key word "raised", meaning Batman's attacks did one less damage than ZT's calculations.
The user links itself telepathically with the target and transfers vitality between itself and the target in an attempt to make the vitalities of the two Pokemon match. This move cannot increase a Pokemon's HP above its maximum HP. Pain Split can siphon a maximum of 25 HP from an opponent, but the Energy Cost is calculated based on the total difference. The 25 HP limit does not apply when targeting an ally. The user of Pain Split must have enough energy to use the attack, or it will fail.
Once again, bolded is another key phrase, as Pain Split require 33.3 energy to complete and Lucy only has 33 Energy remaining, the move failed rather than an Energy KO.
EDIT Kirlia did faint, as ZT pointed out, I forgot to include the STAB En bonus so yeas Kirlia is ded
waterwarrior needs to post orders and i will do another round
Batman should have 84 HP. as if Pain Split fails, it can't take HP away. And now... I really don't like facing down this Bolderdash, but there's only one thing to do: SHOOT FOR HAX!

Round Nine
Action One
Trainer ZhengTann shouted commands as he released Erza from her pokeball and she immediately started moving. Within seconds, she had forced small stones from the ground and imbued them with her own vitality before flinging them around where Batman's feet would have been. The stones continued to glow with energy for a moment before they settled and became lifeless once more. Moments later, the rocks were just a part of the battlefield once more as Batman started to press his own attack.
Batman loosed a mesmerizing beam of energy that slowly floated over to Erza's eyes. The two ends connected and formed a wave that circled in front of her face. The wave eventually started to move so fast that only impressions of where it had been were left in Erza's vision and she lost focus. The enegy slowly started to dissipate as Erza was left standing, her whole body waving back and forth.
Action One Conclusion
Batman | Erza

Action Two
Erza summoned an orb of energy from her ancient ancestors, long dead and buried. The energy came easily to Erza, and she used the purity of her ancestors to strengthen the power of her attack. The energy collided with herself.
Zubatman willed his energy to his head. A faint blue aura started to form around the top of his skull, however, when he tried to move, his wings stopped moving and his body stopped responding. He fell to the ground and by the time he recovered, Erza was moving again.
Action Two Conclusion

Action Three
Erza summoned another energy from the ancients, this time taking on a wave form. Small shards of stone combined with the beam which swirled around Batman and sliced through his thinning skin.
Batman flew high into the sky, into the rain. When his wings were carving through the clouds, he dive-bombed Erza from as high as he could. He pulled up right before hitting the ground and after the impact, he spiralled out of control.

There's a Future Sight attack (Kirlia's) from last round, amounting to 24.75 damage. That, coupled by Bolderdash's Paleo Wave A3, dealing [9+3+(7.5-3)]*1.5 = 24.75 damage, would have KO'ed Zubat at A3 before it can use Brave Bird. Bolderdash, on the other hand, took that 4+(1.5-3) = 2.5 damage with a confused self-hit A2. So Bolderdash would've been left with 87 HP, 80 EN post-round :)
