Welcome one and all to an educational battle for all involved! Today, the talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, tutor Toon is going to teach the rusty old man Gemini Taurus, how to ref! or at least yell at him when he messes up

The first lesson has already been learned by me: maybe wait to do reffing 101 until you have more than 3 eligible pokemon. But it's too late for that now! Let's get started!


On one side of the field, we have my beautiful team: Ornacia, Athabasca and Acacia! With a decent amount of coverage who knows what they'll be capable of!


Athabasca the Appletun (♂)

★★☆☆☆
#842

Nature: Serious (No effect)
Type:


Abilities:
Ripen: If the Pokemon would consume a berry that has at least two uses left, it consumes it twice, doubling its effect.
Gluttony: This Pokemon devours healing and stat increasing berries at 50% health (flat) instead of 25% health (flat). It also regains three (3) HP per action when holding Leftovers.
Thick Fat: This Pokemon has a great deal of extra fat or muscle that increases its resistance to extreme heat or extreme cold, reducing the type effectiveness of Fire- and Ice-typed attacks to the next level of resistance (2x weak becomes neutral, neutral becomes resistance, etc.)

Ornacia the Heliolisk (♀)

★★★☆☆
#695

Nature: Serious (No effect)
Type:


Abilities:
Dry Skin: This Pokemon has spongy, yet sensitive skin, causing it to burn in bright sunlight for damage but absorb water and heal damaged tissues in rain. This effect results in dealing two (2) damage/action to this Pokemon in sunlight and recovering two (2) HP/action in rain. In addition, the dry skin is very vulnerable to flames and the Base Attack Power of incoming Fire attacks is increased by one (1). The Pokemon absorbs the damage of water attacks and recovers 25% of HP the damage that would have been inflicted.
Sand Veil: This Pokemon is used to reacting in desert conditions and gets a 20% evasion boost during Sandstorms. Pokemon with this ability are immune to Sandstorm damage.
Solar Power: When in bright sunlight, this Pokemon burns solar energy and 1 HP/action to increase the Base Attack Power of all their special attacks by two (2).

Acacia the Mr. Rime (♀)

★★★☆☆
#463

Nature: Serious (No effect)
Type:


Abilities:
Tangled Feet: When confused, this Pokemon moves around in a haphazard manner, increasing their evasion by one (1) stage. These Pokemon will never damage themselves in confusion. If the Pokemon also has Own Tempo, the duration of confusion doubles.
Screen Cleaner: When the Pokemon enters battle, the effects of Light Screen, Reflect, and Aurora Veil are nullified for both teams.
Ice Body: This Pokemon thrives in Icy conditions and can absorb energy from Hailstones to recover two (2) HP/action in Hail. Pokemon with this ability are immune to Hail damage.

Welcome all to the first round of this tutorial match!
After Mr. Rime hits the field and activates its Berserk Gene, Toon counters with a Ditto with a Berserk Gene of its own!
Oh what's this? The ditto fumbles the Gene out of its hands! It seems to be just too inexperienced to use it!
Regardless of not being able to use its own item, Ditto transforms into Mr. Rime and copies its stat boosts, it looks like this will be a high offense encounter.

With a few traded blows, and a missed Shadow Ball due to Mr. Rime's Tangled Feet ability the real Mr. Rime ends the first round with a powerful and sneaky blow!
It looks as if the Ditto is on it's last legs... aaaaaand some bugs bit it and now it's knocked out!

What will Round 2 bring! I guess that comes down to what Toon decides to send out!​

And affter Ditto got pretty messed up, Toon sends Ricochet the Cinderace to get revenge for the fallen blob! Unfortunately it seems the firey bunny was too fired up and it's charge towards Mr. Rime missed as Rime continued to bob back and forth in confusion!

Finally back steady on her feet, Acacia proceeds to steal a few useful tricks that Ricochet had, namely its Expert Belt and its ability, Libero! Despite all that, Ricochet still took a good chunk of HP out of Acacia, but she stays standing.

Without all of the help from its knick-knacks we'll see just how effective Cinderace is in the coming rounds. We'll also see if Mr. Rime can have some fun with its newfound ability!​

Cinderace, frustrated at the loss of its item and ability prepares for an firey onslaught at Mr. Rime, however Rime decides to try a quick Fake Out to throw Cinderace off its balance, which Ricochet protects against just in time!

Cinderace resumes its fired up punches but they are doing significantly less damage now that Mr. Rime has decidedly become quite normal. Realizing that Ricochet is doing significantly less damage now, Acacia decides to take a little break to heal up and rest from its tiring trickery last round.

After eating another punch and finishing up its break, Mr. Rime takes to the offensive and stomps the ground sending a massive tremor towards Cinderace doing massive damage!

With both pokemon suriviving another round, and neither of them looking amazing, who knows what the rest of this battle will bring!​

Holy that was a lot of pokeballs sent out and returned in our intermission. It seems that the final faceoff falls to Athabasca the Appletun and Ruby the Lopunny, with Lopunny holding an Assault Vest, likely for some Klutzy shenanigans later!

Sensing that this bunny likely won't be on the ground for long, Athabasca smacks Ruby right off the bat before she can take off into the sky! After a big leap, Ruby comes crashing down, hitting Athabasca for super effective damage!

It seems that both battlers are comfortable with this course of action, as Athabasca smacks Ruby twice more and subsequently gets trounced after a large leap in return.

Who knows what is left to come for this battle, Ruby appears barely hurt but quite tired, while the opposite is true for Athabasca lets see how this all plays out!
