Sondow vs. Groudon

Sondow leads with Blaziken, me with Empoleon
Blaziken leads with Sky Uppercut, which is super effective and almost KOs Empoleon.
Empoleon retaliates with Surf, which is super effective and KOs Blaziken.
Next Sondow sends out Torterra.
Quick Claw takes effect, and Torterra's Earthquake super-effective's Empoleon, KOing it.
Due to this, I "fu quick claw" and send out Blastoise.
I take no chances, and Hydro Cannon it, which is a KO and gets and "fu" from Sondow in the chat.
He sends out his Blastoise.
His Blastoise uses Bite.
Due to Hydro Cannon, my Blastoise can't attack this turn.
His Blastoise repeats his move.
Mine mimics his.
The above turn set repeats.
The set repeats again, knocking my HP to half, but causing mine to flinch.
Turn repeat, thirding my HP, and almost halving his.
Again, but mine is low, and a lame flinch.
After a long delay, his surfs for the KO.
Out comes Alakazam.  Pretty much nothing left.
Alakazam uses Psychic to almost KO Blastoise.
But here comes Bite for the super-effective near-KO.
Tiny delay for him to check something, but it eventually ends with Psychic.
3-2 me.



Round 2

Sondow leads with Blaziken, me with Empoleon
First moves are the same, with the same results.
Torterra again, but I hope for the Quick Claw to not take effect.
And it doesn't, and Empoleon Surfs Torterra for the OHKO.
Lines from chat:

[19:47:21] <Sondow> I hate you groudon
[19:47:26] <Groudon> Hate your item, not me.

Blastoise is next for him.
Blastoise Rapid Spins to chop off 4 HP with a not-very-effective, and he fu's in the chat.
Surf almost halves his HP.
Water Gun for the KO
Alakazam this time for the clear KO hopefully.
Psychic weakens it and keeps it standing somehow.
Alakazam survives a Bite.
I was gonna, for fun, Metronome, but it was too late and I chose Psychic.  KO, though.
3-1 me

[General Throatstomper]

It's the match you may have waited for...

RPG vs. genus!

I led with a Vaporeon, and he used Aerodactyl, prompting RPG to say: "Fuck!". In desperation he used Stone Edge...and it missed, making him say "double fuck!". Vaporeon used surf and ohko's him. This prompted RPG to say: "triple fuck!"

He switched in Metagross. He used agility...and found out he was allready faster than I was. Vaporeon surfed, bringing him to 1/2 health or so. Next turn he used zen headbutt, at which point vaporeon finished the job.

RPG then switched in Flygon, who finished off Vaporeon. I switched in Drapion, and used ice fang...and he lived. EQ left Drapion alive by a hair's breadth, and he got the ko next turn. RPG did not say "quadruple fuck!"

3-1 genus

Round Two

Aerodactyl Versus Vaporeon

Aerodactyl Stone Edges and this time actuall hits, sweeping Vaporeon out in one swift attack.

Out comes none other than DUGTRIO. I decided not to be ballsy this time, and just opted for a Wing Attack. Shockingly, Aero went first, taking it down to near death, while a Rock Slide from Dugtrio took it down to 1/3 HP.

genus followed up with Drapion, again I opted to play it calmly, Wing Attack, knocking off around 1/3 HP, while he was hit with Ice Fang for the kill.

I responded with Flygon, who was taken down to about 1/12 HP by Ice Fang, before securing the win with Earthquake.

Onto the tiebreaker, which will be a 4 Vs 4 battle, as will all tie breakers from this point.

[General Throatstomper]

genus vs. RPG

...the tiebreaker!

I led with Kingdra and Vaporeon while he opted for Staraptor and Aerodactyl. Aerodactyl used Stone Edge on Kingdra, who barely survived, and Staraptor used Brave Bird to take it down. Vaporeon used Ice Beam on Staraptor, defeating it.

I switched in Drapion, and RPG chose Metagross. Aerodactyl used stone edge on Drapion, who endured the hit. Drapion fired back with earthquake, hitting Metagross for 1/4 damage. Metagross used Earthquake himself, knocking out Drapion. Vaporeon's turn came, he surfed, and Aerodactyl fell, with Metagross hanging on by a thread.

In an even battle of sterling wits, he sent out Flygon and I sent out Dugtrio. Dugtrio used Dig to leave Vaporeon alive. Flygon tried using Dragon Claw and it missed Dugtrio. Then Metagross used earthquake. Apparently Earthquake hits for 2x damage on digging opponents. Dugtrio feinted, and Vaporeon just barely lived. He ice beamed Flygon. Next turn, Metagross used earthquake and defeated Vaporeon.

1-0 RPG

[General Throatstomper]

genus vs. Gazah...fight 1!

I led with Vaporeon, and Gazah used a Salamance. He thunder fanged, knocking Vaporeon out immediately. I switched in Drapion, using ice fang, and reducing his health to a low level. He used fly, at which point I switched in Dusknoir. Next turn, he used dragon breath, and I used Shadow Punch for the kill.

The next pokemon he brought out was a Dragonite, who led with a Dragon Rage. I mean looked, then took my chances with Destiny Bond after a second Dragon Rage. On the next turn, he dragon raged again, and we both went down.

I switched in Drapion, and he used an Empoleon. Drapion Earthquaked, and Empoleon used Hydro Pump, leaving Drapion with about 1/4 health. Empoleon used Aqua Jet, doing a whopping 20 damage, and Drapion defeated Empoleon with another earthquake.

Genus, 1-0

Match 2

I led with Vaporeon and him with Salamance...again. He used Thunder Fang again, scratching Dusknoir. On the next turn, he switched in Dragonite, who was hit with Confuse Ray. After this, Dragonite  used Thunder Wave, paralyzing Dusknoir, who Mean Looked Dragonite. Thanks to handy dandy leftovers, Dusknoir was at full health. Dragonite hurt itself in its confusion, and a Dusknoir Shadow Punch took it down to about 3/4 health. Dragonite again hit itself, and Shadow Punch brought her to 1/4 health. I heard him despondently tapping the screen. It amused me. Dragonite, once again, hurt itself, and Dusknoir finished it with Shadow Punch.

He then disconnnected, and agreed to forfeit the match.

3-0 genus

I am such a winner.

Is the tournament still alive? I say we take a list of whoever is still interested and eliminate everyone else.

[Groudon]

I'm still interested, and I'm not really in any hurry to get to battling again.  Any time is fine with me for whoever's left in my group.

[Rick_242]

Well this kinda died I guess.

Oh and...

^ I told ya before and I'll tell ya again, it's not worth diddly-squat. :P There's never a reason to use it, really.

Liez, I get to kick Gerbil whenever I want to. <_<

[General Throatstomper]

I agree with Rick. This tournament is dead. Having won more matches than anyone else, I proclaim myself the victor.

Unless RPG starts booting people. Start booting people RPG! If you don't, I'm going to make a tournament topic on Monday and it will be most interesting because it will incorporate the gyms.
