Match Over! Cartoons! vs TotalPotato (ref: Limewire)

[TotalPotato]

Gotcha. Sorry to keep asking all these questions, but did you apply the energy penalty for using consecutive attacks?

Sorry Peekay, but I don't think there's much more you can do. Encore that Gust, and if you survive, try to hit Handsome with some nimble Acrobatics. If you somehow survive past that, use Encore again!

Encore - Acrobatics - Encore

 

[Limewire]

Pretty sure I did. Gust has an extremely low energy cost.

His health may be dangerously low, but Peekay decides that the show must go on. He gives Handsome an Encore as he starts to whip up another Gust and cut the primate with the broken glass shards. Flattered by this, Handsome decides to ignore the urge to whip up a Razor Wind and blasts another Gust instead. Peekay anticipates this and hurls himself at Handsome with an Acrobat, smacking him away before being blown away from the gust of wind and being knocked unconcious.

END TURN:

Handsome:

TotalPotato, send out your last Pokemon and go! Both trainers should remember that Handsome is locked into Gust for one more action. Handsome is floating ~10 feet from the ground in the center of the room.

 

[TotalPotato]

Get ready, Farah!

Electrike(*) [Farah] (F)
Nature: Mild
Ability: Static

Okay, you should be able to get in a Discharge right away. Try a Charge Beam next, then finish with another Discharge!

 

[Cartoons!]

This might be a bit of a challenge...

after you get over yourself, use Disable to cut his power, and then set up a Light Screen.

 

[Limewire]

With Peekay down, TotalPotato sends out his final battler, Farah!

Charge

Farah is eager to avenge her fallen comrade. Before she can do anything, though, Handsome blasts a Gust of wind at her. The attack barely scratches her, however, and she quickly builds up electricity inside her body before letting it all loose in a powerful Discharge of energy. The attack stings Handsome quite a bit, and to avoid further damage, he decides to Disable it. Farah then decides to pump herself up by releasing a Charge Beam at the flying critter, once again doing heavy damage. Luckily for Farah, some excess energy raised her Special Attack stage by 1. Handsome, somewhat frightened now, creates a Light Screen to buffer any more special attacks. Farah tries to launch another Discharge, but fails.

Handsome: Gust on Farah. Not very effective. Does 5.7 damage. Costs 1 energy.
Farah: Discharge on Handsome. Super effective! Does 21 damage. Costs 5 energy.
Handsome: Disable on Farah. Disables Discharge. Costs 6 energy.
Farah: Charge Beam on Handsome. Super effective! Does 16.5 damage. Costs 2 energy. Farah's SpA raises by +1.

Cartoons! Make your move!

 

[Cartoons!]

Time to get serious!

Handsome, get behind the Ferrothorn exhibit to avoid Farah's attacks.

Now use Whirlwind to blow some of the spiky fruit her way.

Finish the round with a Razor Wind.

 

[TotalPotato]

Use Quick Attack to follow Handsome behind the Ferrothorn! Try to hit him with Spark next, and finish with a Thunder Wave! But if he's already paralysed by then, use Charge Beam instead!

Oh boy oh boy, could this be it? Handsome is starting to feel tired and floats behind the stuffed Ferrothorn for cover. Farah isn't ready to give up her prey, however, and dashes him to the ground with a Quick Attack. Wait a minute, why is Handsome smiling? Farah, confused as well, just realizes that she is right next to the Ferrothorn, but it is too late, as Handsome fires off a Whirlwind and slams her into the Ferrothorn, nearly breaking it in half. Shaking her head, Farah retaliates by building up sparking electricity on her head and ramming it right at Handsome. Starting to feel woozy, Handsome creates a column of razor-sharp wind around him. Farah, annoyed at being outsped, shocks him with Thunder Wave. Luckily for Handsome, the column of wind lowered Thunder Wave's paralysis rate a bit. Anyways, as Farah is done, the wind explodes in a blast for a critical hit.

Farah, sensing Handsome's fear, is eager to finish him off. She rushes towards him with a brutal Spark. The attack severly dents him, but Handsome will not give up. He musters up his last energy and wiggles his fingers. They start to glow and vibrate really fast. Wait, what's this? Metronome turns into HYPAH BEAM! The intensity of the attack knocks Farah 40 feet across the room, slamming her into a wall. Shaking her head, Farah ends the battle with one final Discharge.

Thanks for reffing this, Limewire. This was a fun match with plenty of surprises all around.

And good match, TotalPotato. You were pretty fearsome! Hope to battle you again after we 'level up' some.

Yeah, good match, Cartoons! I really liked the arena as well, and I hope you use it again!
