SevenDeadlySins vs DrkSlay [ref: HD] WINNER=DrkSlay

CHALLENGING SevenDeadlySins!

Standard 1 V 1
Singles
DQ: 3 Days (5 Days for Ref)
2 Recoveries / 5 Chills
Arena:Desert Oasis (Day)

This oasis is used as a refuge for thirsty, weary travelers traversing the hot desert. This arena features a small pool of water in the center surrounded by a handful of tropical trees and a small grass patch surrounding the body of water. The oasis is surrounded by a vast sandy desert with no obstacles in sight. The oasis has magical properties, and cannot run out of water. The sun is quite bright, but the oasis makes the surrounding area fairly comfortable for all Pokemon. However, it's nearly impossible to set up a Rain or Hail storm in this hot desert during the day. The ground is made up of a pliable sand material, meaning that Pokemon can Dig here.

SUMMARY: No Hail / Rain Dance (and and a result no Snow Warning / Drizzle). Dig and seismic Ground moves allowed. Oasis provides water, and cannot be diminished.

All right, let's get this show on the road!

Go, Allergy the Gastly!

Let's get this party started!

I'll send out my newly minted Gilgamesh the Larvitar!


Let's start with a Sandstorm, then hit him with a pair of powerful Screeches!

All right Allergy, we need to quickly shut down Gilgamesh's plans. We should try to prevent that Sandstorm from going up at all costs, so start off the match by taking aim at Gilgamesh and firing off a Hypnosis! That should stop the Sandstorm while hopefully stopping one of those Screeches. Then, go by what happens if Hypnosis hits or misses:

IF IT HITS: Smack it hard with a Shadow Ball, and then hit it with a strong Super-Effective Hidden Power (Fighting, 7)!

IF IT MISSES: Quickly try and prevent those Screeches with Confuse Ray! Then, fire off a Shadow Ball!

So:

Hypnosis (HIT) -> Shadow Ball -> HP Fighting (7)
OR
Hypnosis (MISS) -> Confuse Ray -> Shadow Ball

round one...you know for the pre-evolution of fucking TYRANITAR larvitar really is a pussy >:[

Allergy and Gilgamesh face each other down from across the oasis. The prehistoric relic starts a ritualistic dance. The ghostly apparition stares perplexed as a mighty Sandstorm is brought on to the oasis. Remembering what she was supposed to be doing, Allergy rises in the air, her eyes glowing in various flashing colors. Gilgamesh has no choice but to stare into the ghost's eyes, and is successfully Hypnotized for one round! Her deed done, Allergy returns to her position in the air across the oasis to the snoozing Gilgamesh.

Allergy takes advantage of her opponent's brief snooze. She starts conjuring a ball of ghostly energy. Gilgamesh, unknowing, just keeps on snoozing. The ball of ghostly energy is fired in a Shadow Ball. This attack seems to wake the snoozing fossil, however it is too late to start his attack.

Allergy, with her opponent's brief snooze over, must rely on her advantage of speed to beat Gilgamesh. Drawing energy from deep inside herself and her environment, fires off a Hidden Power Fighting to hit the dinosaur with. Although taking quite bit of damage from the Hidden Power, releases a mind-numbing Screech. Although it appears that Allergy doesn't have ears (seriously wtf???); she reels in pain as the sound hits her. Allergy's defense is lowered two (2) stages!

My laptop broke, so sorry if I don't take immediate responses for the next 3-4 days as I try and fix it. :( Doing this from my phone.

Confuse Ray, then Shadow Ball, then HP Fighting!

IF HE USES BITE OR ROCK SLIDE: Replace the next action after said move with Disable!

Hit him with a Rock Slide, then Bite twice!

thanks for waiting on me guys

Allergy starts the round by gathering light in a ball. The Confuse Ray flashes in a rhythmic manner with bright colors. Gilgamesh watches and becomes slightly confused from the specifically created show. The prehistoric dinosaur has no choice as his mind is scrambled and he attacks himself.

Taking advantage of her opponent's moment of weakness, Allergy conjures a Shadow Ball. The ball of ghostly energy is launched at Gilgamesh. The dinosaur takes it in stride and causes falling rocks to crush the ghost with a Rock Slide.

Allergy removes Gilgamesh's ability to use Rock Slide with Disable. Gilgamesh responds with a devious look in his eyes as he jumps toward the Gastly with a Bite.

sds is up

So can we make Rock Slide shift to the second action and Bite to the third action? This would get Rock Slide Disabled, which was SDS's aim for the round (and what should've happened anyway). Moves should be done in order of what a player puts.

Just some small changes, so thanks in advance!

While I understand where you're coming from Flora (and SDS as well I assume), I believe I did the correct thing here. I've asked several others and all of them agree that unless specifically mentioned by the player, hitting yourself from confusion would not push your actions back. However if DrkSlay agrees I'll change it at the first moment I can.

I know you were gone for a week, but we had a discussion about this where I explicitly told you that I wanted my moves shifted, not cancelled.

Either way, DarkSlay said he's fine with it on IRC, so make the change.

Let's end this.

Bite ~ Bite ~ Bite

Okay Allergy, I actually think we won this one. Unless a miracle occurs, you should do exactly 42 damage!

Shadow Ball -> HP Fighting -> Shadow Ball

Allergy and Gilgamesh glare at each other from opposite ends of the oasis. The end of the battle is near, and both are pumped with adrenaline. The Larvitar jumps toward the Gastly in a strong Bite. However, the ghost just takes it in stride, with barely a shudder. In response, Allergy fires a Shadow Ball at Gilgamesh, striking true.

Allergy and Gilgamesh are no more than a yard away from each other, and the contempt in their eyes is clearly visible. The Ghastly starts taking energy that has been hidden for just such an occasion, a Hidden Power Fighting. Suddenly startled, the Larvitar leaps forward in a Bite. Right after the Bite made contact, Allergy released the energy and flung Gilgamesh back.

(Couldn't be a little more creative?) Gilgamesh leaps toward Allergy in a Bite. Before the Larvitar can actually bite onto the ghost, the Gastly fires off a Shadow Ball. The ball of dark energy explodes in a fantastic manner; sending dust and sand in the air. When the dust settles, only Allergy remains standing!
