Maxie vs CommBA

Gothitelle, Flygon, Masquerain, Serperior vs Throh, Galvantula, Scrafty, Blaziken

Gothitelle started against Throh and KO'd with two Psychic's, but left Gothitelle at about half its health with Payback. Galvantula finished off Gothitelle with a Bug Buzz. Flygon replaced Gothitelle and KO'd Galvantula with a couple of Earthquakes and a Fire Punch, but took some damage from Bug Buzzes. Scrafty KO'd Flygon with Fake Out. Masquerain replaced it, and was KO'd by Scrafty as well. Serperior came in, and used Attract and Glare to make Scrafty unlikely to move, then used Leaf Storm until it could KO, with Contrary for stat boosts. Blaziken replaced Scrafty though, and even Hidden Power Water couldn't save Serperior.

Prince Vultan challenges Ash K.'s Gym, Mistralton Gym

Crobat, Malamar, Lanturn, Greninja vs Sigilyph, Togekiss, Xatu, ???

Crobat started against Sigilyph and used Confuse Ray to keep Sigilyph from moving, except for one Icy Wind. Crobat switched to Malamar after a few turns, and Sigilyph switched to Togekiss on the turn after. Malamar switched out to Lanturn to avoid being Encore'd into Substitute, and Lanturn switched to Crobat after another turn. Crobat used Confuse Ray and Togekiss used Magic Coat to return it, but Crobat's confusion was cured by its Lum Berry. Crobat used Confuse Ray again, but Togekiss was only confused for one turn. Crobat managed to poison Togekiss with Cross Poison, but then Togekiss Ancient Powered it to death. The Cross Poison activated Togekiss's Weakness Policy, giving it stat rises on top of a previous Nasty Plot. Togekiss Baton Passed to Xatu in the face of a Topsy-Turvey from Malamar, Crobat's replacement, bouncing back the stat reversal. Xatu KO'd Malamar and Lanturn quickly with its stat rises, but then Greninja switched in. Greninja used two Night Slashes to KO Xatu, but it was nearly KO'd by a Silver Wind, left at 10 HP. Togekiss replaced Xatu and KO'd with Extreme Speed to win.

Ash K. vs Prince Vultan

Tyrantrum, Lucario, Talonflame, Togekiss, ???, ??? vs Sceptile, Hydreigon, Scolipede, Lanturn, Dusknoir, Stoutland

Tyrantrum KO'd Sceptile with a Dragon Dance and a Head Smash, but was KO'd by Hydreigon, as it couldn't OHKO with a Dragon Claw. Lucario tried to come in and get a nice Power-up Punch, but was hurt badly by Hydreigon (who fainted also from Life Orb damage). Lucario KO'd Hydreigon though, and Scolipede came out. Talonflame switched in to deal with it to save Lucario from an Earthquake, and Scolipede fled to be replaced by Lanturn. Talonflame U-Turned to Togekiss. Lanturn meanwhile set up Aqua Ring and Ion Deluge'd Togekiss's attempt at Encore-ing it, but Togekiss just repeated its move and succeeded. Lanturn switched to Dusknoir. Togekiss used Nasty Plot and Ominous Wind, mixed with one Aura Sphere and a couple Stored Power's (after TWO Ominous Wind rises) to KO Stoutland, then Scolipede, then Dusknoir, then Lanturn.

Special Rule: Every Pokemon can use Me First once. (Pokemon that learn it normally can use it as many times as they want.) The move copied by Me First targets a random mon. KO'ing another mon gets another use of Me First if you already used the first one. They do not stack in other words.
Disclaimer: This is my first FFA. It will be messy.

Nearly every 'mon subbed turn 1, but one of the exceptions was Steelix who used Sandstorm. Rotom-Wash tried to target Togekiss for a while but Togekiss stalled it out. Floatzel and Sceptile worked well as a team to KO many of their competitors, including Venomoth, Alakazam, and Steelix. The final five were Gardevoir B, Gallade A, Torterra, Beheeyem, and Togekiss. Gardevoir B was pretty much piled by the other four, then Gallade B became the main target. Togekiss tried to take down Torterra, while Torterra tried to kill Beheeyem, but Torterra fell to Togekiss's wrath. Togekiss and Beheeyem fought it out for a few turns, (Beheeyem used Toxic and had it Psycho Shifted back onto itself the next turn,) until DoH forfeited. Also, nobody used the special rule.

Special Rule: POLAR VORTEX! One random stat will be lowered on each Pokemon except Ice types at the start of the FFA.

The special rule created an FFA full of ice types, although the winner was a Scizor! The KO's started coming fast and furious, with 6 mons eliminated by the end of Turn 5. Smoochum broke subs left and right with Psychic. Cloyster B came on strong with a Shell Smash but was KO'd by the Scizor with an Iron Head attack. The final four lasted six turns to end the battle, with much protecting and enduring, but between the final two, Scizor was the clear victor.

Highlight of this FFA for me was Greninja using Haze when it was at about 15% and everyone had accumulated ridiculous stat boosts.

I will always remember this as the FFA where I banned Substitute without even realizing it before I picked the rule. Good times. Whole FFA lasted 9 turns, and 4 mons were lost in turn 2, 3 in turn 3, and 3 in turn 4. Mass carnage everywhere!
