By the time the round starts, William is beginning to get tired of his opponent’s restfulness. Sure, it’s making his job easier, but he came here for some action and he expects to get it! Opening his mouth, he begins to shout out a large flurry of insults and provocations to his resting opponent. Umbra’s eyes don’t open, but his ears hear the words. As soon as William stops his taunting, satisfied, Umbra gets up and opens his eyes, uttering four words. “Oh. No. You. Didn’t.” The Litwick then uses what supernatural powers he has to tear off part of its wax and throw it at his opponent. The wax hits William squarely, sinking into his skin and absorbing all of the excess energy in his body before fading away into nothingness.

Umbra smiles at his attack. Not so high and mighty now without your precious stats, are you!, he thinks maliciously. But William knows what his opponent has done to him, and intends to remedy that as much as possible. He soon begins a spiritual dance that has been passed down in his family line for generations. The dance calls power to his body, increasing his agility as well. But alas, Umbra has seen the Dragon Dance at work before, and knows exactly what his opponent is doing. Planning to foil William’s plot, the Litwick shoots another glob of clear wax at his opponent. The attack has the same effect as before, sucking away William’s extra focus and energy.

This time, however, William begins to see his opponent’s strategy. He’d probably be wasting time if he tried to boost his stats again. So he figures he’d best conserve his energy for the future by lying down and taking a light, quick nap. Umbra, however, doesn’t let up on his opponent. Instead, the little candle gathers energy from the environment around him, combining it with his own to create a green energy orb. When it is about a foot in diameter, Umbra hits the Energy Ball toward William. The attack explodes on the Scraggy, who is immediately roused from his sleep.

Round Eight End!

Ok, here we go. Strategy time. We should do more chilling first, really. If you are attacked, try and protect instead. But don't do it two times in a row. So do crunch instead on the second turn.

Chill/Protect~Chill/Crunch~Chill/Protect
 
Strategy time! And loopholes ftw.

So first, use Sunny Day. Then, use SolarBeam. Finally, use Trick Room.

William is still quite tired. Hearing his opponent’s commands, he knows that he’s safe to just chill out and regain energy for the first part of this round. So he does so, just lying down and taking a quick snooze to regain his energy. Umbra, on the other side of the battlefield, ignores his opponent’s laziness. Ignoring his tiredness, the Litwick sends a quick burst of flame out of its candle toward the ceiling. Once there, the fire...dissipates? Wait, that wasn't what was supposed to happen. He begins to wonder what caused it as he begins to ready his next attack.

No sooner does William wake up to the failed Sunny Day then he sees his opponent preparing to attack despite the loss of its potential benefit. Well, the little Scraggy decides to defend himself as well as possible, leaping forward with his teeth bared. He sinks them into Umbra’s wax shell, breaking off a thin layer, and though it wasn’t the most tasteful of attacks he’s satisfied that it did its job. But then Umbra releases his own attack. The ball of sunlight at the top of the room sends a greenish-yellow beam of pure light down at the Litwick, and Umbra deflects it with his candle so that it flies straight toward William. With no time to dodge, the Scraggy takes the full brunt of the attack, flying back and hitting a wall after it’s over.

But unfortunately, William doesn’t think he’s strong enough to retaliate; at least, not yet anyway. He still feels like he needs rest. So he slumps down again, beginning to snore lightly almost immediately. Umbra watches enviously, hoping his trainer will give him a chance to do that soon—but now he must instead concentrate on using his planned tactic. He uses what ghostly-psychic powers he has to distort the room’s dimensions—a nice tactic that should help him in the near future…if he’s even able to find the energy to attack with.

Round Nine End!

Umbra sees the referee’s flags wave to signal the round to start, but he doesn’t even attempt to attack, or even move. Instead, he rests in place, storing energy for what he knows will be his final attack. William across the arena does the same, desperately hoping that he can get a move in before his small opponent. Both of the battlers know that this is the last move, and probably only one of them will still be standing at the end of the round.

But then, Umbra’s eyes open, glowing with an orange light. The Litwick builds up all the fire-type energy inside his body he can muster. His flame flares to almost triple its normal size; and then it explodes in a gigantic blast of flame headed straight toward William. The poor Scraggy has no time to even think of dodging the attack or even guarding against it, and his skin is scorched horribly. Every skin cell in his body cries out in pain. It’s too much…then he falls over. When the smoke clears, William is lying unconscious on the ground. Umbra has won.

Ending things off…
Good game! Sorry about some of the reffing speeds, tho. That was amazingly fun to ref, and it was always a really close match. So now, the ending prizes: LS99 gets $8, I get $5 and Scraggy gets $3. Umbra gets 2 EXP, and William gets 1 EXP. Good game again, and I hope I get to ref another match like this sometime.​

Even if Overheat missed, wouldn't Rest KO William anyway?

Good game, this was my favorite so far and I think the only one I won...
