[WIN] Eye of the Storm (Normal) - Frosty and SubwayJ

[Frosty]

SubwayJ we need to get on IRC to discuss our strategies. We have 3-4 rounds ahead of us and we can probably predict what will happen then. I am inclined to endure with dusknoir here to stall on one of the rounds and next round heal pulse it A1 and sac it to stall the second round. On the third round threat will be on Stratagem and it doesn't have screens, so I am inclined to have one Helping Hand Head Smash this turn or Stratagem using Double Team once at some point. But that involves making 3-4 into 4 rounds surely and...

well, there are a lot of factors going on. Let's try to meet on IRC, k? I we can't, I will figure out something and post. But let's try,

 

[Frosty]

SubwayJ

zarator , I believe Fidgit's Leppa Berry should have activated, so it has 10 more energy. If that is not the case, please let me know.

Okay, let's see if I can predict the next rounds.

Round 7

Dusknoir: Endure - Sucker Punch

Fidgit: Chill - Chill

Tyrantrum: Thunder Fang - Crunch

Stratagem: Ancientpower - Paleo Wave

Lugia: Sky Attack - Sky Attack (Dusknoir) - aka strongest attack, I think

Lugia suffers: (8+2-1.5)*1.5+(13-1.5)*1.5+(15-1.5)*1.5+(9+3+2-1)*1.5+(9+3+2-1)*1.5= 89.25hp
Dusknoir suffers: (14*0.67+3)*2= 25hp, but Endure.

We will end with:

Dusknoir: 1/4
Fidgit: 35/44
Tyrantrum: 48/2
Stratagem: 51/30
Lugia: 231

Fidgit will have 115 threat, stratagem 143 and Tyrantrum 138
Tailwind is gone

Round 8

Dusknoir: Shadow Sneak - Chill
Fidgit: Heal Pulse (Dusknoir) - Tailwind
Tyrantrum: Chill - Crunch
Stratagem: Ancient Power - Paleo Wave
Lugia: Sky Attack - Sky Attack

Lugia will suffer: (4+3+2-1.5)*1.5+(9+3+3-1.5)*1.5+(9+3+2-1)*1.5*2= 70.5hp
Dusknoir bites the bullet.

We will end with:
Dusknoir: faint
Fidgit: 35/20
Tyrantrum: 48/8
Stratagem: 51/30
Lugia: 160

Threat: Stratagem with 172 is leading

Round 9

Fidgit: Heal Pulse (Stratagem) - Chill
Tyrantrum: Chill - Crunch
Stratagem: Ancient Power - Paleo Wave
Lugia: Hydro Pump - Hydro Pump

Lugia will suffer: (9+3+3-1.5)*1.5+(9+3+2-1)*3= 59.25hp
Stratagem will suffer: (11+3)*1.5*2-20= 22hp (31 if rain)

We will end with:
Fidgit: 31/18
Tyrantrum: 44/14
Stratagem: 25/20
Lugia: 101

Reflect expires

Round 10

Fidgit: Heal Pulse (Stratagem) - Chill
Tyrantrum: Thunder Fang - Crunch
Stratagem: Ancient Power - Paleo Wave
Lugia: Hydro Pump - Hydro Pump

Lugia will suffer: (7+3+3-1.5)*1.5+(8+1+3+3-1.5)*1.5+(9+3+2-1.5)*3= 75hp of damage
Stratagem will suffer 22, but considering Rain or Hail, let's consider it fainted.

So we will have:
Stratagem: faint
Tyrantrum: 44/3
Fidgit: 31/16
Lugia: 26hp

Light Screen expires

Round 11

Fidgit: Helping Hand (Tyrantrum) - chill
Tyrantrum: Crunch - chill
Lugia: Earthquake - Earthquake

Lugia will be hit first with Crunch dealing 32.25hp of damage. Tyrantrum fainted due to exhaustion and Fidgit lives and we will barely win.

Which means we still should be able to win even if weather isn't in our favour. Barring some really bad luck (crits and crappy weather all around).

I think it deserves a shot. I will go ahead and post my orders so we aren't DQ'd. Please check the calcs and lemme know if that are correct or not.

Dusknoir: Shadow Sneak - Sucker Punch
Fidgit: Heal Pulse (Dusknoir) - Chill

 

[Gemini Taurus]

These all look accurate, I think we've got a shot at this!


Tyrantrum: Thunder Fang - Crunch
Stratagem: Ancientpower - Paleo Wave

 

[zarator]

Frosty, I'd like you to notice a recent hotfix I made:

Endure won't prevent going KO from direct damage if the Pokemon is at 1 HP before taking damage.

It may be important for your course of actions.

 

[Frosty]

Oh lovely. Thanks for the heads up.

I edited my orders, zarator, feel free to ref.

 

[zarator]

Round 7​

Thanks to the help of Dethl, Bongo Bongo manages to endure Lugia's assaults a little longer, giving room to the Rock-type team mates for pushing further. However, they should be wary now, as a heavy rainfall suddenly stormed the plateau!

looooooooooooovely

Let's keep this on course. If we are lucky, Bongo Bongo might still be around for some kicks next round. If my calcs are correct, the strongest attack on Lugia's arsenal (Sky Attack) won't deal 13hp of damage, so bongo bongo should move to round 9.

Fidgit: Tailwind - Chill
Dusknoir: Protect - Chill

SubwayJ The small detour didn't change at all our situation, luckily, so please proceed as planned. Thanks to the big lead Dusknoir has, it will continue as the target for 2 more rounds, which means that, if we play our cards right and nothing too awful happens, Stratagem might be around to deal the last hit and Dusknoir might help in our offense. I haven't done the calcs, but it is possible that we might even finish this in round 10 (but let's not think on that for now).

 

[Gemini Taurus]

Tyrantrum: Chill - Crunch
Stratagem: Ancient Power - Paleo Wave

Okay, lets hope we didn't miss anything

 

[zarator]

Frosty: I'll assume you meant "everyone but Dusknoir" for Tailwind.

Round 8​

Frosty's team now goes fully defensive, allowing Bongo Bongo to survive Lugia's might for a bit more. However, right when the Dusknoir was attempting to recover his forces, the legendary bird strikes it with a violent ram that leaves the Ghost-type dazed. SubwayJ's Pokemon though don't give up, and keep lashing at the enemy at the best of their abilities.

Then, all of a sudden, a ray of blinding light pierces through the clouds, quickly clearing the sky and bathing the peak in intense sunlight.

Round 9​

Dethl keeps healing Bongo Bongo, but it's getting truly hard to keep him alive in face of Lugia's wrath. Nevertheless, the Rock-types seem to have almost overwhelmed the mighty beast.

Dusknoir should be paralysed, no?

Okay, SubwayJ, let's finish ths, k?

Dusknoir: Shadow Sneak (Lugia)*2
Fidgit: Chill - Helping Hand (Tyrantrum)

Stratagem: Ancient Power - Power Gem
Tyrantrum: Thunder Fang - Crunch

Even if Dusknoir gets fully paralysed A1, We will manage to deal (6*1.5+3+2-1)*1.5+2+(7+3+3-1.5)*1.5+(8+3+2-1)*1.5+2+(8*2+1+3+3-1.5)*1.5= 91hp of damage. While Lugia will attack only Dusknoir A1.

Should be enough to end this overgrown pidgey.

Stratagem: Ancient Power (Lugia) - Paleo Wave (Lugia)
Tyrantrum: Thunder Fang (Lugia)- Crunch (Lugia)

Round 10​

Bongo Bongo is stopped cold by paralysis and subsequently obliterated by the foe, but this gives enough time to the two Rock-type to spend their remaining energies and finish off the legendary bird!
