University of Sovaria
Battle Arena
All 40 of us
"Alright class, I'll be giving the rules. The format is a 2v2 doubles where each of the two Trainers of each side has 2 Pokèmon each."
"This is single elimination, and closed teamsheet, this is to prepare you for battles without the perfect information..."
"There're 8 teams so we'll be going for a Elimination style tournament .. you'll be graded based on your team's standing. Now lets draw lots to find your matches."
"All team leaders step up!"
Julia then steps up, and 5 others step up with her.
We decided that Julia should be team-leader since it didn't really matter much anyways...
Julia went over to Professor Raiya and took the '1' card, so we're team one.
The Professor had a Tournament Bracket ready, and we were going to face off Team no.2... at Arena 1
"Alright class, get to your respective arenas. All battles will be happening simultaneously for efficiency's sake."
All 40 of us spread out onto our own arenas,
We meet up with team 2 and we shook hands with them
"Okayy, Me and Shoto are going first~"
Our whole team nodded and we positioned ourselves for the battle, facing a pair of dudes...
The referee states the battle conditions
"The 2 on 2 4v4 doubles battle between group 1 and 2 shall commence, Substitutions are allowed, but each trainer can only have one Pokèmon out at a time."
"The battle is in closed teamsheet, but if you use a Move not registered for this battle. You are disqualified."
"Now. Battle begin!"
All of us send out our Pokèmon at the same time...
Julia and I lead off with Torracat and Larvesta.
While the opposition led with Vulpix and Charmeleon
Torracat's Intimidate lowers both opposing Pokèmon's attack stats by a stage each.
While Vulpix set up the Sun with its Drought ability.
"Vulpix, use helping hand to boost up Charmeleon!"
Julia intercepts with her own command
"Don't let that Charmeleon attack! Use Fake-Out"
The Charmeleon's trainer also follows up with a defensive reaction
"Charmeleon use Protect!"
Charmeleon used Protect to block the Fake Out,
"Larvesta return."
I myself return Larvesta and swap it out.
"Go Thwakey!"
Thwakey enters the field and sets up its Grassy Terrain..
Now this may look like a bad play, putting a Grass type when the opposition are both Fire-types and the harsh sunlight is up..
But we do have a plan.
The turn ends on Charmeleon getting visibly hurt, it meant that it had the Solar Power ability.... Letting it fire off an attack is dangerous.
"Vulpix, Helping hand once more!"
The Vulpix prepared another Helping hand for the Charmeleon, and it smiled. Now it can fire off a powerful attack..
"Torracat, use Parting Shot on Charmeleon!"
The Charmeleon's Attack and Special Attack stat got lowered as the Torracat hit the Parting Shot,
Julia then returned Torracat and Sent out Mawile
Activating, its Intimidate... Once more both Sides have their attack lowered, but it didn't really matter in this case. Since Charmeleon and Vulpix are special attackers..
Charmeleon's trainer: its just one stat drop... I can still probably KO them both...
"Charmeleon, use Heat Wave!"
The Charmeleon Prepared a Heat Wave, but...
"Thwakey use Fake-Out on Charmeleon!"
Thwakey, in a burst of speed. Hit Charmeleon with a Fake-Out... Causing it to stop its Heat Wave.
Let me attack man...
The Charmeleon cried internally as it once again couldn't attack.
The Charmeleon loses another bout of health, which was mockingly negated a little bit by Grassy Terrain's healing. It lost health again from solar power without being able to do a thing...
And it didn't help that Vulpix had done 2 redundant moves in a row... It was risky for Vulpix to use an attack since it was so slow, so we decided to make it use Helping hand..
The battle shifts onto the next turn and We decided to let Vulpix attack now.
"Charmeleon final time! Use Heat Wave!"
Charmeleon preps the fire in its mouth... Finally... It can attack!
But those happy thoughts got cut off..
"Mawile Mega Evolve and use Sucker Punch on that Charmeleon!"
While Mawile Charging Charmeleon, it underwent Mega Evolution...
It finished right before it reached Charmeleon, and as fast as the command... With Mawile's Jaws hitting Charmeleon with Dark energy, it got Knocked back and Fainted on the Spot..
"Vulpix, use Weather ball on that Thwakey!"
Shoto instantly reacts.
"Thwakey use U-turn!"
Thwakey hits the U-turn first, before the Weather ball hit. And it swaps out instantly for Larvesta who took on the hit.. and tanked it easily..
Charmeleon's trainer was forced to return it.. and send his last Pokèmon.
"Go and make me Proud! Beedrill!"
The trainer sends out Beedrill, and after it did... The trainer touched his Keystone..
"Beedrill, Mega Evolve!"
A dome of light appeared around Beedrill, it Underwent Mega Evolution and the dome dispersed...
The turn ended with both Larvesta and Vulpix gaining a health recovery from Grassy Terrain.
Now its getting started....
"Beedrill, use Fell Stinger on Larvesta!"
"Vulpix use Weather Ball on Mawile!"
Both attacks were prepared, but before they hit...
"Larvesta use Rage Powder!"
The Larvesta spreads power that made it the center of attention, forcing the two opposing Pokèmon to attack it.
"Mawile! Use Sucker Punch on Beedrill! Knock it out!"
The Mawile Flashes once more with another powerful Sucker Punch, due to Beedrill's low defence, it fainted to the Sucker Punch on the spot...
And Vulpix went on to Attack Larvesta instead of Mawile.. and the Larvesta shrugged off the hit...
Now it was a 2 against 4... It was a landslide victory.
"We forfeit.."
The Charmeleon's trainer said as he decided that his teamate shouldn't suffer anymore as he was fighting a losing battle...
"The battle concludes, Group 1 wins the battle!"
We all return our Pokèmon and the opposition went over to us..
"That was a great battle... You two are monsters...."
We all shook hands, as the battle concludes...
