danmantincan vs. Kaxtar: Unown Soup is the New Tourney Arena (pass it on)

[danmantincan]

Well, that combo is going to hurt. But we can always hurt him harder!

Grab Unown C and use Counter. Then burn him with a Will-o-Wisp and finish with a Chill to regain some energy.

--------------------

Pirate Man, now faster than Nolan, unleashes a huge Waterfall Wring-Out combination that lays some serious hurt down on Nolan! But Nolan has a trick up its sleeve, or rather, an Unown-C, which he uses to Counter the blow for even more damage! Despite getting railed upon, Pirate Man falls asleep from drowsiness, allowing Nolan to administer 2nd-degree Burns with a Will-o-Wisp! As Pirate Man wakes up, freshly Burned, he smacks Nolan around with an Aqua Tail (courtesy of Unown-A), to which Nolan responds by simply chilling and resting on its laurels!

Heracross enters the fray, tripping over tons of Spikes as he does so, but finally gets it together enough to face the weakened Nolan! But first, Heracross must be flinched as Nolan stealthily pulls an Unown-F from the dwindling soup to use Fake Out! Now Heracross, with no orders from its trainer (tsk tsk...), Struggles to decide what to do! But it's no worry, for in Heracross's panic he somehow managed to KO his very, very tired opponent!

(3 Layers of Spikes should do 24 Damage iirc)

Skrimir, you're up! Let's start by Intimidating this bug, then it's time to scorch him with a Fire Blast, follow that up with a Heat Wave and finish with a second Fire Blast.
If he uses Bide, use Unown S: Sunny Day~Leer~Flare Blitz, starting from the action he used Bide.

--------------------

Skrimir the Arcanine pushes through the Stealth Rock trap with gusto and sort of spoils Heracross's Moxie by Intimidating the poor and ultimately doomed bug. As part of its entrance, Skrimir roasts Heracross with a Fire Blast, but Heracross is ready and returns with a huge Stone Edge! Skrimir keeps up the offensive, drying the air for a vicious Heat Wave! Heracross tries to come back by preparing a Reversal while trying to grab for an Unown-W, but Heracross fumbles and doesn't know what to do with the Unown at all! It instead manages to sneak in its attack, but the effect was certainly less than anyone expected! What a flop! Skrimir punishes this failure with a swift Fire Blast KO, leaving Kaxtar with another Pokemon down!

--------------------

And now Kaxtar's Revenankh has to wade through the Spikes laid around its team area in order to do battle! Skrimir opens the action by purposefully making an Intimidating face like when it came out, which frightens Revenankh! Despite this, Rev is still able to go on the offensive with an Earthquake, rattling the soup and doing good damage! Skrimir, hoping to never have to live through another attack like that again, quickly snatches up an Unown-M and uses Magnet Rise to make it rise above the battlefield! Then, Revenankh goes for a Rock Slide, but, unfortunately for Revenankh, rocks fall all over the battlefield on just about every spot except for the spot Skrimir is on, so the move misses! Skrimir, confident now in its standing in the match, goes on the offensive with a Fire Blast while confidently evading Revenankh's second Earthquake!

Huh, didn't think that Intimidate would cost an action. I guess we got lucky there.

Skrimir, start by grabbing Unown S and hit Rev with a Shadow Force, then heal up with a Morning Sun and finish with a Fire Blast. If Unown S is unavailable, use Unown W and burn Rev with a Will-o-Wisp.

Then, as Rev cools down, Skrimir heals up with a Morning Sun and follows it up with a Fire Blast! Rev answers with a normal Rock Slide, leaving both competitors in pretty bad shape!

Both smash into entry hazards on their ways in, but Shinon brushes it off and starts scooting around in the Soup, trying to find a particular Unown while Beast sloshes behind, gearing up for an incredibly Focused ThunderPunch that does huge damage! Shinon finally finds the Unown-T it was looking for and used it to throw up a Trick Room and then used Flamethrower! Shinon follows up with a third move in a row, an Acid Spray, that corrodes Beast! Unconcerned for the time being, Beast quickly Digs underground and resurfaces for a mediocre attack on the octopus!
