Battle Hall Challenge - ZhengTann

[TheWolfe]

Go ahead. In fact, I'll do it for you. :]

Gray the Riolu (*)

Riolu(*) Gray (M)

Gray the Riolu first clapped eyes on Zt when he hatched, and has followed him ever since, after bidding goodbye to his birth parents. His desire to be as good as his father (who was a well-known Pokemon in Sinnoh) drives him to perfect his body and trademark Aura Sight in all forms of training. Gray is Natsu’s rival in every way, however it’s not unusual to see them interrupt their fights just to face ‘outsiders’. Like his Ice-Making namesake, Gray is a thinking brawler. His intuition for fights, along with his uncanny ability to read his opponents movements, means he can usually counter the same instant his opponent makes a move. Oddly enough, despite numerous brawls, he sometimes still can’t read Natsu’s moves correctly.

Nature: Adamant (+1 Atk, -1 SpAtk)

Type:
Fighting type: Fighting STAB; ignore weight restrictions on Circle Throw, Seismic Toss, Sky Drop, Storm Throw, Submission, and Vital Throw. Superior reaction time in close quarters.

Abilities:
Ability 1: Steadfast
Type: Innate
If this Pokemon is flinched, it becomes aware of the speed difference and increases Speed by one (1) stage to make up the difference. This Speed boost is maintained at the end of each round.

Ability 2: Inner Focus
Type: Innate
When an opponent attempts to flinch Riolu, it stands firm and continues its attack. If it has another ability that would be activated by flinching, that ability activates.

Ability 3: Prankster (DW unlocked)
Type: Innate
Riolu is always prepared for engaging in subtle tactics, giving its non-damaging attacks an increase in priority level.

[ZhengTann]

Drain Punch has STAB, and therefore should deal 12.5 damage instead of just 9.5, leaving Hippo at 59 HP and Riolu at 52 HP. Since I couldn't resort to trickery against such a formidable opponent, might as well go toe-to-toe with ya.

Riolu does not know Dig. Please reorder your commands.

Spe: 60
Size Class: 1

Base Rank Total: 14

Abilities:
Intimidate: (Can be Activated) When this Pokemon initially goes out into the battlefield, it generates an intimidating roar or war cry that shakes all opponents on the battlefield, reducing their Attack stage by one (1). The attack drop is maintained at the end of each round. If an opponent switches in a new Pokemon, Intimidate can be activated again as an Action, and will affect all opponents.
Flash Fire: (Innate) This Pokemon thrives in high temperatures, and takes the energy of any opposing fire attack, nullifies the damage, and uses the additional power to boost its own fire attack’s Base Attack Power by two (2). Self-targeted attacks do not give the boost.
Justified (DW): (Innate) This Pokemon's body reacts to dark energy, invigorating its passions. When hit by a Dark-type move, the Pokemon's attack will increase one (1) stage. A boost gained this way by another Pokemon's attack will be maintained at the end of each round. Self-targeted attacks do not maintain boosts.

[ZhengTann]

Oh great, it has to be Intimidating. And the speed-tie, too. If I can win it, then it's another odds in my favour, but for now, I'm quite happy that it has Agility instead of Detect.

"A fighter with the name Sword, interesting.."

Earthquake > Rock Slide > Earthquake

[ZhengTann]

All I'd need is some priority to bypass the speed tie between Gray and Growlithe to take you out before you heal.... This should work, but if it doesn't I'll reorder.

Gray, we're gonna rebel against the rule, and strain your body with a lot of earth-shaking attacks. Begin the round with macroseisms to damage Growlithe further after his heavy recoil attack, then by bursting your speed, jump up and drive Growlithe into the ground, using the force of that attack to cause a second earthquake at the same time. Being half buried while suffering the seisms will totally disrupt the firebrand canine's focus, netting you the win.

"Rising Dragon's Fist? I've fought enough battles with a certain dragon to know your basic moves, and it's always best to pit force against force head on. Let's see how your strength matches against ours!"

Earthquake > Earthquake + Bullet Punch {Ice Make Infinite: Avalanche Snow Hammer!!} > combo cooldown (Rock Slide)
IF the combo does not work, THEN replace A2 with Rock Slide and A3 with Earthquake.

 

[TheWolfe]

After thinking about it, I am going to allow the Bullet Punch + Earthquake combination. Other refs could disagree with me on this one, but I think it's perfectly legitimate.

There's too much threats to cover one-by-one.

"In that case let's just use a failsafe to nullify it until we gain a slightly better edge."

Substitute (25HP) > Blaze Kick > Crunch
IF Exeggcute uses Reflect, THEN replace the next action with Brick Break, pushing remaining queue down.

Not for the first time, I am glad every previous Hall experience gives an additional edge to Gray's arsenal.

"Won't be the last time, too. But the disc is right - let's kick it up a notch!"
