Dynamite quickly dashes forward and strikes Abra and blinding speed. The Quick Attack really seem to please Tau, because he start applauding his opponent with a cheerful attitude. The Vulpix is so enjoyed that he decides to repeat his last move and falls for the Encore.
Overjoyed and excited, Dynamite bounces again and hits the Abra with another Quick Attack. Tau starts to suffer the hits, but acts according to the plan of his trainer and fires off a small Charge Beam at his opponent. The accumulated electricity causes the Abra to raise his Special Attack.
Atempting to dodge Vulpix's next move, Tau concentrates his mind and Teleports away. However, Dynamite is faster and strikes him with a third Quick Attack before he teleports away.

Good job Dynamite! Now it's time to ram trough him with Payback! follow quick with a Tail whip to lower it's defenses enough to fire off another super strong Payback Attack! Hopefully that will give us the lead again.
Ok first I want you to use Teleport to avoid Payback. He got you with quick attack but this should end up differently. Next let him Tail Whip you as you smacj him in the face with Psychic - try to use the psychic power to throw him into a pool if you can. Finally, use Encore to force him into another Tail Whip, now and also in the next round. Better yet, he'll be getting pretty low on energy after that.

Angered for the trick played by Tau against her, Dynamite decides it's Payback time. The Abra begs to differ, though. With excellent mental reflexes he easily Teleports beyond the move (if anyone here is thinking to a Mage Blinking through a nasty attack in World of Warcraft, I love you).
Without wasting time, Tau concentrates his mind energies and slams Dynamite with Psychic powers. The Vulpix wails in pain, and wags cutely her tail. The Abra is infatuated with the Tail Whip'sfluffy movements, and his Defense is lowered by (1) stage.
Tau seems to really like the show, and claps excitedly. The Vulpix, cheerful at the idea of an Encore, seconds the motion and Tail Whips again.

Tau decides it's time to end the confrontation. Dynamite... well, she's wagging happily her furry tail. A Tail Whip can be worth a thousand hugs, I'd guess.
While the Vulpix shows off all her cuteness, the Abra shows off all his smartness and smack the opponent around with Psychic powers, following up with a Charged Beam which overload his tiny body with electricity and raises his Special Attack by (1) stage.
On the verge of defeat and with no energy left, Dynamite comes to her senses, and attempts to retaliate, but Tau is faster, and finally knocks her out with a Psychic wave, leaving her on the ground, fainted. However, the Abra starts to feel tired and exhausted too...

Timmetmannetje goes first now. Send out your last Pokémon and issue his actions.
Ok so that's going to hurt you.
A lot.
We could try pranding around with teleport but I don't think you have the energy. So let's just go all out until the finish line.
Snubbull(*) Brutus (M)
Nature: Brave (Attack increased by *; A 15% decrease in Base Speed [Rounded Up] and a +5% flat increase in accuracy (e.g. 85 Accuracy becomes 90) on this Pokemon's attacks.

Run away (Innate)This Pokemon is quick on its feet and can evade any traps in an arena. Run Away does not allow the Pokemon to escape from trapping moves or abilities, however it can escape other situational trapping strategies in battle.
Abra (Tau)

Items: None
Other: Defense lowered by (3) stages, +1 Special Attack
Tau is visibly exhausted as Timmetmannetje sends out his last Pokémon, the mighty Brutus. This is where you wonder how cuteness and manliness could get mixed up so well.
The Snubbull runs towards his opponent, the mouth wide open. The Abra desperately attempts to stop his charge with Psychic attacks, but the hit, despite his power, doesn't phaze Brutus much. An intense cry of pain comes from Tau as his opponent plow through his skin with a violent Crunch.
The Abra attempts to get some room bewteen him and his foe, and emits a thin ray of electricity at his opponent. The Charge Beam leaves some scorches on the skin of Brutus, who retaliates with a vicious Bite.
Tau then tries to blast the Snubbull with his Psychic power again, but even this last ditch effort is too much for his remaining forces. The same cannot be said for Brutus, who runs up there to finish poor Abra with a ferocious Crunch, but death comes from above, as a rock falls from the ceiling and knocks Tau down to the cold hard ground.

Lord Jesseus, send out your last Pokémon and issue his actions
Ok Iota, it's down to you! First off, Disable that nasty Crunch. Follow up with Will-o-Wisp to lessen the overall blow of his attacks. If you succeed, hit him with Sludge Bomb, otherwise try Will-o-Wisp again.
Disable~Will-o-Wisp~Sludge Bomb or Will-o-Wisp if not burnt.
Good job Brutus! Now lets get that tiny bit of gas ans show your True powers! Use this three attacks and quickly switch them so that cloudlike toxic has no chance of escape!

Iota promptly enters the battlefield, ready to pick up the slack. Afraid of following his fellow's destiny, the Gastly immediately Disables Crunch from Brutus' memory. The Snubbull seems to be able to use his mouth in many other ways, though (please don't look for hidden meanings here...). Dashing forward with his jaws wide open, he Bites into Gastly's ethereal body, damaging him significantly.
Worried about being worn down quickly, Iota conjures some eerie blue flames to scorch Brutus. The Will-o-wisp hit without fail, and the Snubbull wails in pain as he gets burned. Still, he bites again into Gastly's gaseous substance with his Thunder Fangs.
The Gastly tries to look for the distance, and throw a deadly Sludge Bomb at Brutus, managing to score a critical hit. In a desperate rage, the Snubbull leaps in again and strike his opponent with another Bite.

Ok, I'm not sure whether or not you can disable more than one move. The Audit thread doesn't say you can't, but to be on the safe side I'm going to give two sets of commands depending on whether or not its allowed.
If two moves can be disabled: Disable the Bite he used last round to trip him up something fierce. Follow up by firing a Confuse Ray as he comes toward you with his charge. Finally, as he fails to bite you again, Sludge Bomb him again and hope to add on another status.
If I can't use Disable twice:
When he tries to bite you, mess him up with a Confuse Ray. After that, fight fire with fire, or rather electric with electric by using Thunderbolt. Finish up with the infamous STAB sludge bomb. If we get really lucky he'll have three permanent statuses at the end of the round, an amusing thought.
(You can Disable only 1 move per time, I asked DK on this)

Hurt by the constant "kisses" from his opponent, Iota fires a multicolored beam to confuse him. The Confuse Ray induces severe confusion (6 actions) on the Snubbull - who, blinded by the weird lights, hurts himself in confusion.
The Gastly cheers and adds insult to injury by firing a flashy Thunderbolt at Brutus, who again can't help but hitting himself in confusion.
Evilness is not something Gastly are short of, and Iota makes no exception. Without any sign of mercy, he blasts the poor Snubbull with a Sludge Bomb. Luckily for the latter, he manages to shrug off the confusion and strike the foe with a vicious Bite. However, his forces start to fade...

I think Tim is a fair bit out of the DQ time by now, shouldn't he be disqualified?
It's kind of annoying since I was just about to score a KO counter, but I really want to start some more battles too.
