skyfox500 sent out Gengar (lvl 100 Gengar ?).
Ayashi sent out Jirachi (lvl 100 Jirachi).
skyfox500: good luck
Ayashi: thanks you too :D
I don’t think there’s anything major Jirachi can do to me, so I’ll just hypnosis
as usual.
Ayashi switched in Machamp (lvl 100 Machamp ?).
Gengar used Hypnosis.
Machamp fell asleep!
---
Machamp… I don’t remember much about its moves, but it’s a physical attacker,
so I’ll switch to Swampert to set up Stealth Rock while he sleeps or switches.

Machamp is fast asleep!
Machamp used Sleep Talk.
Machamp used Dynamicpunch.
Swampert lost 36% of its health.
Swampert became confused!
---
So his Machamp’s a sleep-talker. From dynamic punch, it probably has No Guard
over Guts. Not important right now, but it may come into play a bit later.
Anyway, I try to wait out the confusion.
Ayashi switched in Gengar (lvl 100 Gengar ?).
Swampert is confused!
It hurt itself in its confusion!
Swampert lost 7% of its health.
---
He’ll probably try to Hypnosis me. Being a bit bulky, Swampert
has a decent chance of the surviving the sleep, so I’ll keep him
in and keep trying to get Stealth Rock up.
Gengar used Hypnosis.
Gengar's attack missed!
Swampert is confused!
It hurt itself in its confusion!

---
Gengar used Hypnosis.
Swampert fell asleep!
Swampert is fast asleep!
---
Thanks to Hypnosis missing twice, I got stealth rocks up. I don’t know
what else his Gengar does yet, so I’ll just see if I can wait out the sleep.
Gengar used Substitute.
Gengar lost 25% of its health.
Gengar made a substitute!
Swampert woke up!
Swampert used Surf.
The substitute took damage for Gengar!
Gengar's substitute faded!
---
Substitute. I haven’t seen a Gengar use that before. I’ll
keep Surfing to either break another Substitute, or hit whatever
else he might switch in.

Gengar's attack missed!
Swampert used Surf.

Salamence lost 20% of its health.
Swampert's leftovers restored its health a little!

---
I’m back at full health from Leftovers, and Salamence comes in.
Most Mence’s I’ve seen have been physical, but also carry Draco Meteor.
If I switch to Metagross, he might earthquake me, so I’ll keep
Swampert in and see if he can survive to Ice Beam it…
Salamence used Draco Meteor.

Salamence's special attack was harshly lowered.

do make a difference. You’ve done a good job, Swampert.

Pointed stones dug into Gengar.
Gengar lost 12% of its health.
Gengar used Shadow Ball.

With Swampert down, I’ll bring out my Deoxys-e to outspeed
and hopefully KO his Gengar.

It's not very effective...

---

I see if Superpower will KO.

It's super effective!
Magnezone lost 65% of its health.

since I know that it’s not Scarfed.

Ayashi's Magnezone fainted.
(5-4)

(4-4)
---
skyfox500 switched in Metagross (lvl 100 Metagross).
Earthquake would do the most damage if Jirachi stays in, but I don’t
want him bringing Gengar back in to Hypnosis me, so I choose
HP Fire to see what he does, and hit Jirachi or whatever comes in.
Jirachi used U-turn.
Metagross lost 16% of its health.
Ayashi switched in Gengar (lvl 100 Gengar ?).
Pointed stones dug into Gengar.

I don’t what else it has besides Sleep Talk and D-punch, but
it’ll wake up soon, and fearing an earthquake I switch back to Gengar.
Pointed stones dug into Machamp.
Machamp lost 6% of its health.
skyfox500 switched in Gengar (lvl 100 Gengar ?).

rather than putting it back to sleep.
Gengar used Thunderbolt.
Machamp lost 32% of its health.
Machamp used Sleep Talk.
But it failed!
---
I guess he thought I’d Hypnosis again. In retrospect, If had been using
Shadow Ball over Thunderbolt, I might have KO’d it right then.
Ayashi switched in Jirachi (lvl 100 Jirachi).
Pointed stones dug into Jirachi.
Jirachi lost 6% of its health.
Gengar used Thunderbolt.

Jirachi lost 35% of its health.

Metagross who can usually take a couple hits from Outrage.
skyfox500 switched in Metagross (lvl 100 Metagross).
Garchomp used Swords Dance.
Garchomp's attack was sharply raised.
---
I guess his Garchomp isn’t choiced. He’ll either earthquake now,
or Dragon Claw/Outrage expecting me to switch. All he has left at this point
are his Garchomp and a weakened Machamp. If he uses Outrage,
I’ll survive and hit him with Meteor Mash to weaken him.
Garchomp used Earthquake.
It's super effective!
Metagross lost 84% of its health.
skyfox500's Metagross fainted.

skyfox500's Starmie fainted.
(2-2)
---
If I ran Ice Beam over Thunderbolt, I might have been able to KO it.
Anyway, now that I know he’s weakened enough and outspeeded by
Gengar, I bring my Gengar in to take Garchomp down with him.

Gengar used Explosion.
Garchomp lost 52% of its health.
Ayashi's Garchomp fainted.
