    Buzzer vs Scourge of Nemo
    Electivire, Xatu, Swampert vs Leafeon, Azumarill, Spiritomb

    Xatu's Confuse Ray on a switched in Spiritomb left Scourge struggling. Scourge then got a breakthrough when Leafeon's repetitive Synthesis got Electivire to use Giga Impact instead, allowing it to use Swords Dance on the recharge turn. Before Leafeon can finish off Electivire with Leaf Blade, Electivire won the speed tie and burned Leafeon with Fire Punch. It pretty much went downhill for Scourge then on.

    Buzzer wins, and gets $2000. Advances.
    Scourge loses, and gets $1000. Eliminated.

    I should get $2000 for reffing.

    Zeferin Vs Xali
    Khajmer reffed

    Dusknoir, Clefable, Crobat | Jolteon, Swampert, Lapras

    Normally I'd give some elaborate, detailed description of the battle, but I'm tired, so...

    It went like this:

    Dusknoir: Wall+hax
    Crobat: Hax
    Clefable: stall

    Jolteon: par-haxed crobat
    Swampert: took out clefable
    Lapras: hax

    Xali wins

    earnings are what they are.

    -I still hate talking about my own battles. Erm, so Lucario started vs Ambipom. There was some issues when we all realized that Ambi didn't learn Fake Out as a level up, which ended up with Ambi switching for Togekiss while Lucario Swords Danced. Lucario was getting ready to sweep when Togekiss used Sweet Kiss, making it smack cause Bee's dice hate everyone. Togekiss then used Yawn, forcing Lucario to switch for Rotom-F. Rotom confused Togekiss this time, who smacked and then switched for Porygon2, who took a TWave to the face, followed by a second Confuse Ray. Zap Cannon from Pory hit on a Sub from Rotom, but it didn't do much. At this point, Feng raqequit because none of his mons could actually hit a ghost... erm, gg. ^.^

    Kai- 2,000 + advances
    Feng- 1,000

    The Gauntlet: Round 1 Battle

    3v3
    Gauntlet Tourney Battle
    Gauntlet Rules

    RouletteDares Vs Evanfardreamer

    Drapion|Roserade|Lapras vs. Swampert|Arcanine|Dusknoir

    The match started with Drapion coming in against Swampert. Seeing the type disadvantage, RD switched to his Roserade, who promptly used Giga Drain. However, Evan switched to his Arcanine, who took the hit easily. Roserade had taken some damage from Swampy, so RD switched her out as well, bringing Lapras into the battle. Arcanine fled battle as well, and brought out Dusknoir, who weathered a Hydro Pump. Those two battled it out, but eventually Lapras brought it to below 50% and blasted it away with a Brine. This brough Swampert out again. Lapras immediately confused Swampert, letting it smack. They exchanged blows until finally the confused and exhausted Swampert switched out for Arcanine, who took a Brine as soon as he came in. Arcanine took Lapras out with a Thunderfang, bring Drapion back out. These two battled for awhile, until Arcanine Roared him away, bringing out RD's Grass type. RD switched to his Drapion again, who easily withstood a Flamethrower. Drapion finished up Arcanine with a nasty Crunch, forcing Swampert to face the scorpion. Drapion tried to land a Scary Face attack, ensuring that his opponent would be slower for Roserade, but to no avail. The attack missed and Swampert landed a finishing blow. Roserade came in, and was still faster. She promptly used Giga Drain to secure the win for RD. Overall, a close match with good strategy from both sides.

    RouletteDares gets 2K ~advances to Round 2
    Evanfardreamer gets 1K ~eliminated
    Zef gets 2K for reffing

    Re: The Gauntlet 2.0: Round One!

    Many people are saying they aren't sure if they are going to be able to battle their opponent, but they haven't even tried contacting them.
    So before you come and ask for special exceptions or whatever, you need to actually have attempted contacring your opponent through PM's or VM's (IMing people isn't the only way of communicating ;))
    PM's and VM's will also be important if you opponent never shows up, as then you can sue them as evidence when the two weeks are up.
    So contact your opponent first before thinking you'll have to give up

Dusknoir beat Lucario with Fire Punch thanks to Close Combat's defense drop, although it flinched from Dark Pulse once.
