So I guess I'll start off by sending out Aquamarine the Froakie. ^^

Geodude6 · Jul 15, 2014

"Expecting an easy time? T-t-t-too bad! My f-f-FIRE will make ash of the lot of you!"

"They already know, you little weasel. Besides, this one isn't your fight."

"Why you INSOLENT LITTLE... Enough! I'll show you all my f-f-f... My f-f-f-f..."

"Forward, to battle!"

Timburr @ Exp. Share

Thunder Punch x3
IF Froakie uses Double Team THEN use Foresight.

Speed-X · Jul 15, 2014

Use Attract. If Timburr can still move from infatuation, use Mud Sport to weaken Thunder Punch. If Timburr can't attack, use Scald.

Attract~Mud Sport / Scald

(Not one hundred percent sure if this could be considered a legal sub--the first one, that is--since it's an anticipatory thing since Froakie would move first. Going to try, though, because one of the best ways to learn is by trial and error. :P )

Doubt · Jul 15, 2014

Chance substitutions are legal when ordering second, so yes, that's legal. The format is a little off, though, you don't need to list both attacks. You can just phrase it "Attract~Mud Sport" and have your substitution be "If timburr can't attack due to infatuation then use scald that action." You can also throw "and push actions back" to the end of the substitution so mud sport would be pushed back to A3 if you use scald A2.
Although, I think you only have two actions up - you need three, so your orders would look something like "Attract~Mud Sport~Scald" if you had the aforementioned substitution up (and you wanted to use scald A3, of course). I'll allow you to reorder, so I'll tag you for convenience. Speed-X
One other question - more directed towards Geodude than anything. Does Speed's substitution apply A2 or A3 if Timburr is frozen due to infatuation?

Geodude6 · Jul 15, 2014

No, because Froakie will move first and you can't chance sub for Pokemon moving after yours.

Doubt · Jul 15, 2014

That's what I thought, thank you. Speed-X at this point you should post your orders again - this is called a reorder, and is usually given when a ref makes a mistake or a call on whether or not something is legal is made. This allows you to change whatever mistake is made. In this case it's the lack of 3 orders, so please re-order with 3 moves and we'll be on our way :)

Speed-X · Jul 15, 2014

Oh, okay. So I need three actions then, I see. As soon as I get home I'm going to reread the information on battling and subs. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Its all starting to make sense, though. Push back pushes, for instance, Action 2 to the Action 3 slot. Pushing forward does the opposite. Ill get it. So this means that since this a chance sub and Froakie is faster it absolutely has to move first, no? Just want to reiterate so I can get a better understanding of whats been said.

Use Attract, then Substitute (15%). Use Mud Sport on the Substitute to weaken Timburr's Thunder Punch. If this doesn't work, swap Substitute and Mud Sport.

Attract ~ 15% Substitute / Mud Sport ~ Mud Sport / Substitute.

I know you said I dont have to list both attacks with the "/"; I guess its more of a preference thing. I enjoy feeling organized. x] If it gets confusing or amything though then I'll stop, no prob.

And I'm already watching this thread, so I get any notifications pertaining to it. Thanks for tagging me though! Anyway I really appreciate everyone being so patient with me, here. Hopefully the orders arent quite so confusing this time? Please do let me.know if they are

Doubt · Jul 15, 2014

The orders are still a little confusing - keeping both moves within one thing makes it a little harder, but I think I understand. Also, substitute is 15 HP, not a percentage like in cartridge :P

Ohh, I see. Back and forth, the actions alternate between the Pokemon.

Er, Froakie started out with 90 Energy? Oh, I can see that you changed that in the calculations. Nevermind. xD

Use Smokescreen to lower its Accuracy; then Double Team (x1 clone); then a Water Pulse + Scald Combo.
If Timburr uses Substitute or Foresight on A1 or A2, use Scald (then the Pulse + Scald combo on A3, but I think that's already clear. Just making sure).

Geodude6

Edit: I derped a little. Thanks for pointing that out, specified the amount of DT clones. x]

Doubt · Jul 15, 2014

Speed-X You have to specify whether you want 1 or 2 double team clones. Each one adds an extra amount to the evasion boost (1 = 50% chance he misses, 2 = 33%) :).

Geodude6 · Jul 16, 2014

Froakie should have 61 HP due to the substitute she made. Also, a duration for Attract would be lovely. (use the old DAT as this information most likely got lost in the transition to Gen VI)

Fighterman481

Doubt · Jul 16, 2014

Derp, you are right. The definition for Attract in the NDA just says something to the effect of 'for a while' >_>. Fixed.

(Sorry about the delay, we had a thunderstorm last week and it completely fucked our wireless router with a rake.)

"Oh, you're a mighty fine lady~"

"Quit making goo-goo eyes and FIGHT LIKE A MAN!"

"My one loooooove..."

"Fine! I'll deal with her!"

Switching to Gligar @ Exp. Share. Speed-X can't counterswitch because Froakie is cooling down from a combo.

Earthquake~Poison Sting~Earthquake
IF Froakie uses Smokescreen THEN use Torment and push actions back.
IF Froakie uses a damaging Water-type combination THEN use Agility (Evasive) and push actions back.

28/7 EDIT: Made Gligar's dialogue easier to see.

(No action) ~ Double Team ~ Attract

Doubt · Jul 28, 2014

Speed-X You are not allowed to do nothing - I'll allow a re-order, so please do :)

Geodude6 · Jul 28, 2014

Fighterman481 Froakie is cooling down from its Water Pulse+Scald combo A3 of last round.

Speed-X, in the future if your Pokemon is cooling down, instead of putting "No action" put "Cooldown" or something similar.

Um... how did Gligar take 1 damage? Neither Double Team nor Attract are damaging moves.

EDIT @ below: Hurr.

Doubt · Jul 29, 2014

Froakie Struggled due to not specifying a number of clones for double team.

Water Pulse ~ Scald ~ chill

If Gligar uses Dig, push actions back

If Gligar uses Toxic, then dodge it

Thanks everyone, again, for being so patient with me.
