Exhibition Battle #2
TheEvilDookie vs SLC, Buoyysel, and Gmandiddy

TeD: Gengar, Jolteon, Weavile, Blaziken, Starmie, Salamence
SLC: Blaziken, Metagross Buoy: Mamoswine, Miltank Gman: Espeon, Gyarados

It was set to be an interesting match right from the start. Gman, SLC, and Buoy were in a chatroom for discussing their strategy, and let's just say; it was interesting. The three teamed up to taken on Elite 4 Member and Viridian City Gym Leader TheEvilDookie, better know as TeD. TeD has a reputation for being one of the best battlers in the URPG today, so he was the clear favorite to win among spectators. However, the team of SLC, Buoy, and Gman (let's refer to them as Team Homo for now on), proved to have more of an advantage than expected. For starters, they were each able to use their two most well-EM'd Pokemon. Second, TeD wouldn't know what Pokemon he was facing, since two or more of them owned some of the Pokemon that were being used. This proved to be helpful for Team Homo, as when their lead Blaziken Red Carded out TeD's Weavile, it was clear they had the advantage. With a Swords Dance, a few Speed Boosts, and ~30% HP, Blaziken was looking scary. Especially since it's opponent was a Weavile, a severe mismatch for the Dark/Ice-type. It was clear that a Fake Out followed by a Quick Attack would KO Blaziken. Expecting this, Team Homo decided to use Protect, blocking the Fake Out and leaving the Quick Attack unable to KO. However, TeD, being the elite battler he is, said "F IT, YOLO!" and went for the Swords Dance. With Atk+2 and control of the battle, TeD had managed to climb out of the early whole that Blaziken had put him in. The mood had changed greatly in the Team Homo chatroom, going from confident to humbled. The battle continued on even, until TeD sent his Salamence in against what he thought was Buoy's Espeon. Prepared to set up and sweep, TeD was caught off guard when the Espeon turned out to be Gman's HP Ice Espeon, scoring a surprise KO and once again giving Team Homo the lead. But then, Starmie came in. Starmie took out the weakened Espeon, and Team Homo brought in Miltank. Three Thunder Waves, 2 Refresh, a couple fully pars and a lot of Surfs later, Miltank was KO'd, and Gyarados was brought in for Team Homo. Gyarados was expected by everyone to Dragon Dance on the Thunderbolt, then KO with Bite or Crunch, get the Moxie boost and so some sweeping. However, Team Homo decided to opt for Thunder instead. The Thunder missed, and allowed Starmie to KO on the next turn. The last hope for Team Homo was the same Blaziken that helped them so much in the beginning. Hoping TeD would expect a Protect and opt for a Substitute, Team Homo took a chance very similar to the one TeD took earlier, and went for a Swords Dance. However, it didn't work as well for them. Starmie used Surf, KO'ing Blaziken, and leaving Mamoswine to suffer the same fate. Interesting battle, good game. Also, highlight of the battle:

Claiming. Thanks. :>

 

P.S.: Unless it changed in gen 5, Rest fails when asleep and used by Sleep Talk. It sounds like that's not what happened, but just a note since you mentioned that would have worked. I can test it later in my Black just to check. It might have even changed in gen 4, idr what gen that happened in, but I remember Rest failing when Sleep Talking even if not at full HP (and/or gave a different message).

I would love to participate in some of these, however, I haven't been able to reliably get on AIM recently. STUCK AT A NEW CAMP I REALLY HATE >.< fml...

 

Figured I'd post here so everyone knows I didn't give up on it or something.

Basically, the plan at first was Haze and Jr vs WTP and Ataro. But WTP is in the middle of a move and has limited internet access. The partner Ataro picked to replace him isn't available anytime soon, and right now I'm planning on waiting for WTP to come back. So we can do the original plan.

In the meantime, I would love for everyone to toss some ideas around in here. Maybe even something for before the doubles battle. Ataro has offered his services for a single battle sometime soon, so we could do something involving him.

 

Take a page from the Orange Islands. Hold battles in which both trainers must use the same type.

 

A threeway battle, or something along those lines.

 

I suggest a Rock-type battle between me and someone else. Maybe Haze if everyone wants to watch me get demolished.

 

I'll water battle someone, even though that's just Mikan rules. 6v6 slc?!

 

BRING IT

jk implying i have 6 good water mons in my lineup

Also, I battled last time so it might be fair to give someone else a chance, though I'd happily battle.

 

I'd like to battle ATF using our water mons ;o

 

Same type would be interesting.

Ataro vs WTP (normal)
TeD vs Winter (ground)
Roulette/ATF/Bee (water)

I'm also intrigued by a three way battle, like Mubz suggested. What about a 3 way water battle?

 

Except Ted would destroy me. Three way water battle sounds really cool, as long as two don't decide to team XD

 

how about me challenging LD to an exhibition battle work?

 

Winter, please. He has a girlfriend already.
