At the rate we're going we're going to set a world record for uses of Substitute in an ASB match. On the bright side it looks like this match could be coming to an end soon, as Aquamarine is quickly losing health!

Speed-X, you're up!

 

[Flamestrike]

So, Speed-X and Gale Wing Srock, I've just realized thanks to Gale that I've made a somewhat major error. Since Froakie used Camouflage, it's no longer a Water type, which means neither of its Scalds should have had the STAB bonus. This would make some massive changes, as it means two Scalds is no longer enough to break the substitute (the one from last round would do 7.333 which would leave it at 8, and then the one from this round would fail to break it). Since you guys probably bother ordered assuming the second Scald would break the substitute (I'm almost certain Speed-X did if nothing else), it's only fair that, if you guys want, you get the opportunity to reorder for the last round. Or if you'd both prefer to just get this over with ASAP I can just fix the numbers accordingly and we can keep going.

EDIT: The last two rounds have been edited to reflect the correct numbers.

 

[Gale Wing Srock]

I would prefer not to repeat the round and proceed with Froakie being a Normal type from hence forth.

Actually more than anyone else, I should be blamed for not checking this earlier as I had chosen to use Thunderbolt on Froakie on a1 round 7 (I think) and use muddy water on a2 same round. ~_~

 

[Speed-X]

We all make mistakes, its how we learn. I think we all messed up a little, and its best to just move on from here and try not to make the same.mistake again. :>

Cooldown - Chill - Quick Attack

 

[Gale Wing Srock]

Muddy Water - Chill - Bubble

Lol there is no way the three of us will ever repeat a overlook :P

I would rather call it an overlook than a mistake...
A mistake would be to not bring a grass type when the opp has protowatt :P (Just kidding... ~_~ )

Flamestrike, I think this is my fourth chill. Please let me know if otherwise, Thank you.

 

[Flamestrike]

I'm also getting that as your fourth chill Gale.

Weirdest. Match. Ever. No HP damage is dealt as the substitutes take the blows, and both Pokemon gain energy, Aquamarine slightly more so as she was recovering from her combo. With one sub gone and another one weakened, will we see some actual HP damage? Oh who am I kidding, we'll just see more substitutes :P

[Gale Wing Srock]

Thunder Shock + Thunderbolt ~ Cooldown (Muddy Water) - Muddy Water

If Froakie uses Substitute on A1, use the folowing order instead Thunder Wave ~ Chill ~ Muddy Water.
If Froakie has clones up when you would act, use Muddy Water that action instead and use Thunder Wave the following action.

 

[Speed-X]

Pretty sure that combo is gonna ko froakie. gg. x]
Ah, wait...camo is still active.

Quick Attack + Quick Attack ~ Cooldown ~ Quick Attack + Quick Attack

:O Actual offense! Aquamarine, desperate to destroy Bubba Shrimp Co's substitute, fires off a Quick Attack + Quick Attack combo that kills the sub, but it ends up being a completely pointless endeavour as Bubba Shrimp Co exhausts himself taking Aquamarine down to 1 HP with a Thunder Shock + Thunderbolt combo! With Aquamarine on 1 HP, paralyzed, and stuck cooling down on the first action of next round, it should be easy pickings for Gale and whichever of his remaining two Pokemon he wishes to send out next!

Aquamarine -> -20.5, rounded to 21 HP, -16.5, rounded to 17 energy
Bubba Shrimp Co -> -14 energy

[Speed-X]

Doesnt Gale have to send out his replacement Pokemon, if this were a typical scenario? I mean it obviously doesnt matter at this point, just making sure is all.

Scald x3

 

[Gale Wing Srock]

Sending in Fletchling with an Amulet Coin.

"Fly little Birdie, Fly faster than the light,
Fly faster with all your might,
Finish of this torment; relieve us from this plight,
Avenge your friend; knock all out before your sight,
Fly little Birdie, Fly faster than the light,
For you are D' Burd who loves to fight...
For a Friend!"

Quick Attack + Acrobatics ~ Cool down (Quick Attack) - Return

Thanks for Reffing this patiently Flamestrike.

Well played Speed-X, though we should have played a more attacking battle as Flamestrike hinted us ~_~

anyways Good battle guys, have fun.

Good game guys!

 

[Speed-X]

Uh, hold on. Just wondering for my own reference, but one question:
Dont both battlers win the same amount of CC? Or do they? Thats how Ive been seeing it done, pus I havent seen anything in the handbook that says otherwise. Is there an exception?

Not trying to rat you out or anything, Gale, just I was wanting to know for my own refefence.

Anyway, gg, thanks for battling, Gale, and thanks for reffing, Flame. :>

 

[Flamestrike]

He used Amulet Coins on both of his Pokemon; they each give him +1 CC.

 

[Speed-X]

Oh. Derp. Righty then, guess I didnt see that! Thanks xD
