Nidoran♂ [Tyrannus Mactator] (Male)
HP: 65 Energy : 63 Stats: 2/2/3/1/50 Abilities: Poison Point / Rivalry Other : Substitute (14 HP)
After recalling Turtwig, Matezoide sends out Paul-Tepig to continue the match, triggering the rock trap that Larvitar had lain, wounding it before it can react. Nidoran takes advantage of this by Digging underground, while Tepig simply Curls into a ball to get into a more Defensive position before Nidoran comes up from underneath it and jams its horn into Tepig, sending it flying. Tepig manages to recover though, uncurls itself, and Charges at Nidoran, Flames streaming from its body, and becomes faster by using leftover energy from the attack, but not before Nidoran, safely hidden behind its Substitute, fires an orb of Sludge that explodes with Bomb-like force upon contact and showers Tepig with highly toxic materials, badly poisoning it. Tepig, energized by its previous attack, then launches a stream of Flames at Nidoran before it can react as if using a Flamethrower, shattering Nidoran's Substitute, but Nidoran Digs back underground to escape the flames, then comes up behind Tepig and rams it with its horn once again.

"Let us not drag this out any longer then we must. What worked before must surely work again. Go Now, Nidoran! Finish Him!"
"*tribal chanting in unknown language*"
Dig - Sludge Bomb - Dig
If I would die of massive energy loss, change the first dig to head smash.
If the first substitution forcing my first attack to be head smash would kill me in recoil, switch that action to thunderbolt.
Good Game, Matezoide. Thanks for accepting this one.

HP: 65 Energy : 37 Stats: 2/2/3/1/50 Abilities: Poison Point / Rivalry Other : I guess it's fitting that the person with the annoying to type name has a Pokemon with an annoying to type name too. Other than that, nothing.
The battle is drawing to a close, as Nidoran embraces its inner Ground-type and Dig underground yet again, avoiding Tepig's Flamethrower, then emerges beside Tepig and jabs it using its horn, then launches an explosive Bomb of Sludge at Tepig. Tepig doesn't seem to notice this, as it is either running low on creativity or trying to faint itself before Nidoran can, as evidenced by the third Flamethrower in a row it attacks Nidoran with. Nidoran shakes it off, though, and burrows underground one last time, dodging Tepig's last Flamethrower...... Then opens a sinkhole underneath it, and leaps up to collide with Tepig as it falls, knocking it unconscious, then Digs its way up to the surface, emerging victoriously from the hole. (Yes, I know I'm being overly dramatic / unrealistic / etc. but it's the last round and I decided to make it special.)

Edit: I can't change the title of this thread, so just pretend it says completed instead of ongoing, okay?
Hey now, I feel slightly insulted calling me a newbie. Admittedly, I am indeed new, but to me it sort of constitutes an aura of unknowledgeable-ness or lack of skill.
But I stray from the topic at hand. Once again, good game.
