So far the teams look balanced, maybe slightly skewed to akela's side because of Rhyhorn over Lucario, but since this is a Switch = OK match, it won't be difficult to try to play around. Go forth, and conquer!

And opting not to let her teammate Blitz getting the brunt of the attack, Ninja Frog starts the match Protecting the Embirch from Homing's Air Cutter, ignoring the shear of winds across her own skin. Fortunately, Blitz also tricked Overcompensation the Clauncher into using Toxic, which did nothing to penetrate the barrier. Meanwhile, Blitz's own Leech Seed succeeded in binding Overcompensation, draining the Clauncher's life force.

Without the poison status, Overcompensation's next Venoshocks are less effective than usual, though it still caused a great deal of pain in Blitz - the Embirch probably ate something mildly poisonous for breakfast. Homing's Hurricane attack also left her tripping up and hurting herself in the progress! Ninja Frog however, pushes through with her Dig and Rock Slide attack, forcing Homing back with a flinch while Blitz decides to pay back the Toxic in return. Epicdrill's ploy is clever indeed, but will he maintain the little foothold he gets next round?

Attempting to slow Ninja Frog down, Overcompensation Entrained his opponent with a hypnotic Mega Launcher dance, while Homing-Pidgeotto summoned a powerful Whirlwind. However, the Shear from the Gusts is blocked by Punch, who Protected Ninja Frog while taking the brunt of the attack. Helping Hand becomes the last move Overcompensation used, as the Clauncher finally succumbed to Ninja Frog's Dark Pulses and Punch's High Jump Kick, leaving the latter launching a lot of pointy Stones at Homing in the end.

Ninja Frog is satisfied, and U-turned out of battle, leaving Smaug in the middle of the field with Homing. Who will join them for another bout as the trainers rally again over the lull of the match? Find out next round!

Seeing both her mortal opponents in battle, Blitz resolved to make the best before she takes one for the team. Smaug tries to Protect her from harm, but Homing was too fast and kicked off with an Air Cutter. Still Blitz used the cover well to Drain Hyde's vitality and deal a second severe blow with a Counterattack. Hyde did not mind it in the slightest, and continued to rain Rocks and Stones at Smaug after Homing's third attack finally knocked out Blitz. Epicdrill had to ready another Pokeball - how will Blitz be avenged?

Punch replaces Blitz, Smaug subs out, Ninja Frog subs in.

1) Why didn't Rhydon's sub for non-combination Damaging Grass-Type Attack not activate when Rhydon was targeted with Embirch's Giga Drain, a non-Combination Damaging Grass-Type Attack?
2) You cannot initiate a switch phase for two (2) consecutive rounds. Smaug (Bagon) cannot be switched out.

I switched using U-Turn, therefore the above would not apply. From the NDA: "A Pokemon switched out with U-turn can switch without initiating a Switch Phase, but only Pokemon that used Teleport, U-turn, or Volt Switch can be swapped out."

EDIT: However, upon rereading of the rules regarding U-Turn, I noticed something that would make it impossible for me to call a switch phase on the round after the U-Turn switch had ZhengTann read the rules regarding U-Turn: I should be ordering second this round after ordering first last round due to the use of U-Turn forcing the user to order first the following round (the round in which the pokemon called by U-Turn is sent out.)

epicdrill · Jan 3, 2015

Upon reading a portion of the handbook, I noticed that my edit is not strictly accurate.

The Handbook said:
If both players need to replace a Pokemon (either due to KO or because it was forced out or switched through U-turn and the like), then whichever player is ordering second in that round replaces their fallen Pokemon first, then the player due to order first replaces theirs and proceeds to order.

This would mean that the order of events presented in the previous round was the correct order and I am in a position of ordering first this round with the ability to initiate a switch phase due to U-Turn not initiating a switch phase. I would like ZhengTann to weigh in on this discussion.

Sorry to akela, not sorry to epicdrill. Yes, I have a pet peeve about being tagged especially when I did explicitly mention that "feel free to sub me out if I'm twice over DQ".

And after being knocked down a peg, Hyde had no choice but to give the glory to his teammate Homing. Which turns out to be quite the folly, when the Hurricane attack misses. Enduring the Toxic venom coursing through his body, courtesy of Ninja Frog, Hyde once again aids Homing with the latter's trademark wind Shears, ripping through epicdrill's team! Unfortunately that's the best they could do at this point, before Hyde falls to Ninja Frog's attacks. And then Homing fell to Ice Punch as well.
