This was a battle between LonelyNess and I that happened soon after the lift of the ban on Steelix in UU. Knowing the prowess of LonelyNess I hoped this battle would be fun. What happened exceeded my expectations and proved to be my most exciting UU battle to date. This battle also showed me the value of Stealth Rocks. Also, please keep in mind that this is my first warstory and constructive criticism is welcome.
