I wanted to take a break from the usual ladder battling on Shoddy, and brought back the old Brock team I have been using. In a metagame littered with the same old boring pokemon, theme teams are always a pleasant change, and this battle was fun, and really tested the team's potential. Enjoy!
Brock's Team (in no particular order)
My opponent's Team (In order of Appearance)
Rules: Evasion Clause, Freeze Clause, OHKO Clause, Sleep Clause, Species Clause, Timed Battle
Brock- sent out Crobat (lvl 100 Crobat ?).

Skarmory fell for the taunt!
Skarmory used Spikes.

Crobat used U-turn.
It's not very effective...
Gengar lost 9% of its health.
Brock- switched in Steelix (lvl 100 Steelix ?).

Gengar restored 6% of its health.
---
Gengar is BAD news for my team. Since I'm running theme, I have limited options to counter him. I figure hes going to focus blast steelix, so I'll bring back Crobat to see if hes scarf.

If it wasn't for that special defense drop, crobat actually might have stood a chance. But anyway, Gengar is nearly dead. So I send in the frog to finish him.

I didn't expect brick break. He would have been much better off using Night Slash and hoping for the crit. His own sandstorm finishes him off. And he's forced to send out his sleeping dino to take on my Swampert.
