Team Jack_the_Pumpkinking1vs1 single
Style: Set
DQ: Standard week
Damage cap: 60%
Banned moves: OHKO's; each Pokemon limited to one direct-healing move
Arena: Witches' Province
A magical corner of the world, inhabited primarily by witches and warlocks. The arena itself is in the center of a typical forest, with your standard-issue witch's cottage just on the arena's outskirts. Puffs of multicolored smoke have a habit of escaping the cottage's chimney, and can cause hallucinogenic effects on Pokemon that inhale them (which will be primarily or solely Flyers, since the smoke isn't heavier than air). This causes them to be moderately Confused but have random stat boosts to any combination of Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, Speed, and Accuracy which are cumulatively equal to +6.
The arena itself, being so infused by magic, has some odd effects on Pokemon battling within it. At the end of each round, one of the following effects will occur:
18% chance that one Pokemon will receive a +2 boost to one stat (either Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, Speed, and Accuracy) (3% each stat)
18% chance that one Pokemon will receive a -2 penalty to one stat (3% each stat)
12% chance that both Pokemon will receive a +1 boost to one stat (2% each stat)
12% chance that both Pokemon will receive a -1 penalty to one stat (2% each stat)
5% chance that one Pokemon will be given the effects of Magic Coat
5% chance that one Pokemon will receive Magic Guard in addition to its normal ability (this lasts for one round)
5% chance that Magic Room will go into effect (this is a Trick Room-like Gen V effect that removes all effects of items)
5% chance that one Pokemon will receive Magic Mirror in addition to its normal ability (all stat-lowering moves are reflected back to the user) (this lasts for one round)
5% chance that both Pokemon will recover 40% Health
5% chance that both Pokemon will recover 40% Energy
10% chance that nothing will happen

Round 5 Begin!
Mirrorong Gohma's attack from the last round, Norway cloaks herself in a bright white light, then launches herself at her opponent; she collides with her with such massive force that she is thrown backwards herself, landing awkwardly but scrambling upright quickly. Gohma, having been thrown over by the attack, picks herself up and begins absorbing sunlight rapidly, her bulb working overtime to produce energy; after a few seconds of this, she has recovered a large portion of her vitality.
Shaking her head, Norway shakes off the disorientation that the Double-Edge left her with, then begins another, cannoning into Gohma once again; by some fluke, she manages to hit her in the mouth, which due to the burn is massively painful. As expected, the two Pokémon are thrown backwards by the attack; when Gohma gets up again, she ponders using Curse, but realizes that she'd probably mangle the incantation and summon some otherworldly demon, and so she instead concentrates her energy into her mouth area, whereupon her skin becomes drastically thicker and tougher.
As Norway repeats the Double-Edge once more, both she and Gohma are thrown backwards once more; as she scrambles to her feet, though, she stares at Gohma, who doesn't seem to be getting up. Although she hopes that it means she has won, she highly doubts it; indeed, close inspection reveals she's just napping.
Several minutes later, after Norway has gnawed on various trees and gouged interesting patterns into them, Gohma stirs, then awakens, feeling refreshed. At that moment, a brilliantly golden sprout grows out of the ground, growing rapidly and becoming a tree, which drops two golden fruit before withering away to nothing. Each of the Pokémon siezes one of the fruit; then, after several nervous bites, they find it to be delicious, devouring it. A sudden warmth spreads through their bodies, and they feel refreshed and ready to fight.

Notes
- The second Double-Edge was a critical hit. At last.
- I have trouble envisaging Defense Curl working as it stands, so I reffed it like that. There you go.
Arena Notes
- This round, both Pokémon regained 40% health.
- There is a tree with a Squornshellous-Beta-shaped hole in the side growing just outside the limits of the battlefield.
- The trainers and referee are covered in some kind of thick, viscous purple liquid.
- Many of the trees at the outskirts of the field have various marks carved into them by Norway's teeth.
Next Round
- Pumpkinhead Attacks
- Kratos Aurion Attacks
