Arylett vs Zora

Not Meowth

Cat, are you drilling?
This insane mess is for Foxy Zor, also known as Zoren and Zora.

1vs1 single
Style: Set
DQ: Standard week
Damage Cap: 20%
Banned Moves: OHKO's, recovery moves (chills do not count as recovery moves and may be used freely).
Arena: N-Flareth's Groovy Castle Throne

Back in the 1970's, the time of afros and leisure suits, N-Flareth has built a vast castle spanning the entirety of Chief Lett's Elite Force's base. Thus it is here, within the extremely tie-dyed throne room of the castle, which is large enough to fit in any Pokémon quite comfortably, that this battle takes place.

Because it is the 1970's, and we all like to get down like some groovy jive turkeys, trainers must submit their commands through the body language of dance and cannot specify attack names. Only moves with the word "Dance" in them may be specified. (Such as Quiver Dance, Fiery Dance, Petal Dance, Dragon Dance, Featherdance, etc.) Each command, therefore, must be an action involving dancing. The options are, other than aforementioned dance-based moves (note that any moves that qualify as banned do not have any chance whatsoever of being used):

Disco - Awww YEAH! Obviously why the 1970’s are so awesome, the trainer discos until they can disco no more, and the Pokémon uses a random damaging Special move of a neutrally effective type against the opponent. (Example: If the opponent were a Fire-type, the Pokémon might use a damaging Electric-type move like Thunderbolt, because it is neither super-effective nor not very effective.)
Breakdance - The trainer gets down on the ground and breakdances happily, showing the Pokémon who’s the most far out jammer. The Pokémon uses a random damaging Physical move of a neutrally effective type against the opponent.
Hip Thrust - The trainer conveys their desire for FORCE with an AGGRESSIVE HIP THRUST, commanding the Pokémon to use a random Physical super-effective move against the opponent.
Shake Yo Booty - SHAKE DAT BOOTAAAY! By the trainer shaking their bootaay vigorously, the Pokémon is inspired to use a random Special super-effective move against the opponent.
Get Down Tonight - The trainer gets down with like one bad motha- shut yo mouth! What? I was just talking about the Pokémon using a random Status-inducing, non-damaging move. (such as Burn, Poison, Confusion, etc. Move examples: Will-O-Wisp, Confuse Ray, Toxic, Swagger)
Hippie Protest Jam - Maaan, why can’t we just all, you know, Chill out and have peace? Why all the fiiiightting? Make love, not waaaarr. The trainer commands the Pokémon to cease action and Chill by doing a protesting dance.
White Girl Elbow Dance - The trainer conveys their lack of rhythm and inability to dance properly by shaking their elbows feebly, sending mixed signals to the Pokémon. Thus, the Pokémon uses ANY move in their move pool (barring those that are banned, see above), regardless of circumstance.

But wait, there’s more! Inside of N-Flareth’s castle many characters are lurking, searching for the throne room where they can come in on the battle where it takes place… each of these characters have their own agenda. Beneficial or not.

PLAYER FOXHOG - The main protagonist of a Unova-based Pokémon game. Has a 4% chance of making an appearance at the beginning of each round. As such, he has a very limited vocabulary. Though he is a man of few words, each word he says counts. He has a completely random chance of doing the following:
If he says YES to a random Pokémon on the field, that Pokémon’s first action will always hit regardless of its accuracy.
If he says NO to a random Pokémon on the field, the Pokémon’s first action will always miss, regardless of its accuracy. (And this INCLUDES moves such as Aerial Ace and Swift. They will miss.)
If he says "…", a giant disco ball suddenly comes down from the ceiling on the first action and every Pokémon on the field has a 50% chance of a stat decreasing or increasing by 1. As well, 2 Donuts will rain down from the sky. These Donuts can be picked up by any Pokémon on the field, and used as a shield from any attack, rendering it ineffective and making it do NO damage or have ANY effect. Picking up a Donut takes one action, and using the Donut takes another. So to do so, the trainer must say "Pick Up Donut Jive" (To pick up the Donut) or "Donut Shield Dance" (To use the Donut as a shield) If a Donut is used as a shield, it will shatter and its shards have a 50% chance of pinning down a random Pokémon on the field; this includes the one that used it. Being pinned down disables all movement and action for two actions after the Donut was used. Donuts that are not used will automatically disappear in two rounds after their appearance. The disco ball and its effects, stat increases and decreases, will completely disappear the next round.

Ghetku - An evil man who used his own daughter, N-Flareth, in attempts to take over the world. Now he stalks her castle to disrupt any battlers who dare enter her throne room and thus has a 10% chance of appearing in the middle of each round. He will always appear on the second action. However, he will only make an appearance ONCE. Once he has appeared, he will not appear again. Commanding his Moondreigon to use Rainbow Beam, he floods the Throne Room with rainbows making it so vividly coloured that all Pokémon on the field are blinded and thus have their Accuracy reduced by 1. The effect wears off in six actions.

Charlie’s Gym Leaders - The three gym leaders of the Striaton City Gym have a deep secret. Back in the 1970’s, they used to be an ass-kicking trio of dancers. They will ALWAYS appear one round after PLAYER FOXHOG has said "…" and the disco ball has been summoned. The trio will proceed to DANCE and instill CONFIDENCE in every Pokémon in the field, raising their Speed and Attack by 1, but lowering their Special Defense and Defense by 1.

Chief Lett’s Elite Forces - The entire Elite Four of Unova and their leader, Alder, have a 7% chance of making an appearance at the start of every round. Like Ghetku, they will only appear ONCE. And once they have appeared, will not appear again. Alder will proceed to play his kickass theme, which will pause the entire battle whilst everyone fangirls and awes at how awesome it is. Thus, on the action that he appears, every Pokémon on the field does not move or perform its action.

N-Flareth - The owner of the Groovy Castle herself. N-Flareth has an 8% of appearing in the middle of each round and will summon a Zekrom called the Dark Lord. The Dark Lord will shield either combatant from an attack on the second action; halfing its damage. Non-damaging attacks, such as Toxic, Featherdance, etc, will be completely nullified, out of his dedication for N-Flareth. Note that the Dark Lord will NOT shield a combatant who has already been shielded by Dumbledore, and will instead shield the other one. When the Dark Lord is hit, sad, heart-wrenching music will play because N-Flareth will have to ride away on him to find a doctor. This music will cause all combatants to cry a huge river of water, and increase the power of Electric-type moves by 2% additional damage, but cost -2 more energy. This power-up only applies to damaging attacks and lasts for the rest of the entire fight. N-Flareth will only appear ONCE and will not appear again if she has already done so.

Dumbledore - A grand legendary Reshiram named after a wise old wizard. He has an 8% chance of appearing in the middle of each round and shielding either combatant from an attack on the second action; halfing its damage. Non-damaging attacks, such as Toxic, Featherdance, etc, will be completely nullified. Note that Dumbledore will NOT shield a combatant who has already been shielded by N-Flareth’s Dark Lord, and will instead shield the other one. When Dumbledore is hit, he will also use Disco Inferno to rev up the dance floor flamingly, and increase the power of Fire-type moves by 2% additional damage, but cost -2 more energy. This power-up only applies to damaging attacks and lasts for the rest of the entire fight. Dumbledore will only appear ONCE and will not appear again if he has already done so.

Times the Same Day - If Dumbledore and N-Flareth’s Dark Lord happen to appear on the same turn, a special effect will happen. Every clock in the entire world, from France, to England, to Jupiter, will be the same time and time zones will cease to exist. This is called Times the Same Day and will open a temporal rift from 2011 which will summon Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga will sing a horrendous song which will make all Pokémon’s ears bleed on the action in which she is summoned. This will sharply lower Special Defense by 2 for the rest of the fight.

Hoe Force Task Squad - Foxy Zor’s squad of awesome hoes. They have a 1% chance of appearing each round, and will give one Pokémon of either combatant a +1 boost in a random stat. If they happen to appear on the same round as Ghetku, they will attempt to protect the combatants from his Moondreigon and completely nullify his effects, but in doing so, they will stop all remaining actions in the round and ALWAYS come in on the second action.

Encircling the comparatively far less groovy Pokémon League headquarters at least 32 years before the release of the game it is featured in is N-Flareth's Groovy Castle, the inner sanctum of the unspeakably groovy Team Plasma. (Wait, what do you mean dressing as a knight isn't groovy?) And of course, the grooviest room of all is N-Flareth's throne room, built for the lord of the castle to sit in looking regal and important and for tense endgame scenarios to unfold. Also, for crazy people from the future to randomly stroll in and wage Pokémon battles. Such is the case now, as Arylett and Zora take their places at either end of the chamber and unleash an incomprehensible torrent of what may in some alternate reality be words, before sending out the Pokémon that will be duking it out in this rather fabulous lair. Zora chooses first, dramatically throwing down a Pokéball that bursts open to reveal a Deino. Arylett goes for something rather more old-school, sending out Valight the Dratini. The two battlers size each other up, and two incomprehensible command strings later, the shitstorm commences!

Get Down Tonight ~ Shake Yo Booty ~ White Girl Elbow Dance


Baffled by his trainer's unfathomable blatherings and bizarre bodily flailings, Valight it relieved to hear an actual attack command thrown in with them, and begins to slither around on the floor in intricate patterns, performing a ritualistic dance to summon the draconic powers hidden inside him. His dance quickens, and his body glows with a royal blue energy as his inner dragon is awakened, making him feel more powerful and fierce. Alfons scoffs; that stupid Dratini calls that ridiculous slithering a dance? He strolls up arrogantly and begins to strut around in front of her, his strides forming complex dance moves, and occasionally smirks at her mockingly. Valight stares at him, fuming with anger; how dare he undermine Valight's draconic heritage like that? Alfons wraps up his counter-dance and walks away, and Valight swears to get him back for his insolence.

Luckily, judging by his trainer's hip-thrusting motions, he gets to do just that; as everyone knows, thrusting ones hips is the universal sign of "use a physical super-effective attack". Among other things. Valight gives a devious grin as his eyes glow a sinister red, and he summons several motes of deep blue flame that circle around him, lighting up the entire chamber with an ominous light. The flames wrap themselves around Valight's body, and in his determination to destroy Alfons, Valight summons another cluster of flames to feed the cocoon of draconic fire growing ever larger around his body. However, overkill proves to not work in Valight's favour; the flames grow too ferocious for him to control, and begin to consume him instead. He gives a terrified squeal and tries desperately to put the enchanted flames out, but squirting water has no effect on them, and Valight is left to be ravaged by the mystical bonfire until eventually it burns itself out. By now, Alfons is howling with laughter; the singed Valight growls furiously, and forces himself to calm down and control himself a little. A tremendous scream from the other end of the chamber snaps him out of his solitude as an oscillating wave of energy slams into Valight, picking him up and flinging him into the wall, leaving an ugly Dratini-shaped crater in the palace's fabulous architecture.

Valight picks himself up out of the wall, making another mental note to pay attention. He looks toward his trainer to see what commands he can glean from her antics, and is horrified to find her waving her arms in a desperate attempt to do anything that could be construed as a dance. He shakes his head sadly; with such a horrible failure of human coordination calling the shots, clearly he's going to have to take matters into his own hands. But he knows so many moves! This is going to be a tough decision to make on the spot... he begins rapidly muttering the names of random attacks under his breath, trying to decide which to use, suddenly feeling somewhat drowsy for no immediately apparent reason. Alfons, discovering his trainer to be acting similarly, decides to make preparations in case he needs to take any more actions on his own initiative due to future arm-waving catastrophies. He focuses carefully on his opponent, looking out for weak spots while also augmenting his inner strength, trying to make sure any subsequent attacks count.

With adequate dancing-based direction now coming from his trainer, Valight abandons his wide-awake sleeptalking shenaniggles and chooses from a far more refined pool of moves. Bringing up a mixture of toxic chemicals into his throat, Valight slithers up to Alfons, opening his mouth wide and coughing the mixture towards his opponent. In his overeagerness to get one over on the Deino, though, he accidentally spills most of the venom down his front, and squeals in horror as it begins burning through his scales. Panicked, the Dratini flails madly to get it off, eventually overbalancing and slamming his head hard into the ground. Alfons screams in laughter once again, and an infuriated Valight glides into the pool to wash the toxins off himself, luckily managing to clean them all away before they poison him. As he swims around, he feels sharp jaws grab at his body; quickly he struggles, wrenching himself free of them, and swims away through the pool and resurfaces. A disgruntled Alfons pulls his head out of the pool and stomps away, while Valight jeers at him for a change; you'll have to do better than that, she smirks.

Reminding himself of his repeated failures due to anger, overeagerness and vengeance, Valight forces himself to calm down before attacking again. Not completely, though; that Alfons still damn well has it coming. Again he wreathes his body in dark blue flames, closing his eyes as the room mysteriously darkens, lit only by Valight's searing cloak. The flames build and build, and Alfons waits smugly for them to collapse on themselves and their puny master. But his smirk fades as it becomes clear no such mutiny will occur this time, and he should probably be running like a sissy coward unless he wants to get hit b-SMASH. His thought is cut short as Valight's eyes snap open, glowing with an ominous blue luster, and the Dratini springs at him at incredible velocity, corkscrewing through the air as the flames gyrate around his body, and slams straight into Alfons' chest with an tremendous explosion of flame. With a screech, Alfons is knocked backwards by the immense force, slamming his head into a pillar and sliding down it into a heap on the floor. Zora attempts to will him back onto his feet, thrusting as hard as her hips will allow, but Alfons takes no notice; after such an attack he is too dazed to even lift his head.

His confidence surging, Valight decides that Alfons needs much more punishment; carefully-enacted punishment, that is. Gliding over to the doorway, the Dratini begins to slither in circle, slowly picking up speed before suddenly darting across the chamber to the corner where the discombobulated Alfons lies. Upon getting about three-quarters of the way, Valight springs into the air and dive-bombs down towards her collapsed opponent, crashing into him with all the momentum a Dratini can muster. Alfons yowls in pain as Valight strikes him, evidently having been roused by the collision, but is startled to discover that many of his muscles have been badly sprained by the collision. He tries to tough it out and attack anyway, but any attempt at even initiating an attack is met with tremendous pain, and he is forced to concede to just lying very still this action. Valight snickers; what a baby.

Watching his opponent struggling to move his sore, unresponsive joints, Valight decides his day needs to be made even more miserable, and charges an ethereal sphere of dark blue energy in his mouth. With a shriek, he unleashes it, sending waves of blue light oscillating through the air towards Alfons and striking him with a tremendous burst of light that knocks him back some distance. Bracing his heels into the ground, Alfons manages to stay on his feet while being blown back, and soon recovers to return the favour. Galloping over to his opponent, impeded only by the occasional twinge of his muscles, Alfons sweeps his tail underneath Valight, scooping him up and tossing him into the air. Valight yelps as he is flung ceilingward, and has no time to coordinate his body for a safe landing before he slams painfully into the ground head-first.

Just as he calms down from Alfons' earlier insults, another bout of rage begins to stir within Valight's heart; this time an artificial rage, borne from the draconic energies stirring within him. Rearing up, he summons another swarth of flames to wrap themselves around his body, his eyes glowing madly with a bright orange luster. Suddenly he gives a tremendous roar and rushes at Alfons, smashing into him with his full fury and scorching him with the flames wreathed around his body. Just as Alfons recovers and starts to retaliate, an enormous crash sounds from the end of the room as an enormous Pokémon explodes through the wall. The trainers watch in amazement as the jet-black behemoth lands in the centre of the room with a colossal thud, arcs of electricity darting all over its body. None of the trainers have seen anything like it. If they had to guess, they would say it was Zekrom, the mythical beast of Unovan legend. In their sheer awe they almost miss the woman astride it; N-Flareth, the lord of the castle, who commands the mighty beast to approach Valight. The Dratini stares straight up at the Zekrom as it thunders strides towards him, his eyes wide in sheer terror and his bowels teetering on the brink of evacuation. N-Flareth's motives are entirely non-aggressive, however, as she then tells the great beast to turn and face Alfons, blocking his path and rendering his attempts to attach Valight impossible. Valight's stare turns from one of terror to one of wonder; the great legendary dragon Zekrom is helping a pipsqueak like him?! Why, this... this is truly an honour! Hell, most young dragon Pokémon- if not even the oldest and most battle-scarred of Salamence- would give anything to even look upon such a beast. Yet here it stands in front of his humble self, daring Alfons to try to hurt him. Half-awed and half-terrified, Alfons racks his brains for an excuse to avoid doing just that; sheepishly, he clears his throat and mumbles something about his leg playing up, and limps forward a little to prove it. With a derisive snort, Zekrom takes off into the air once more, N-Flareth in tow, and leaves the castle though the hole it entered by, much to Valight's disappointment. In fact, he can't hold back from weeping great tears of sadness and his new idol leaving him so soon, while Alfons sobs uncontrollably in relief. Before long, the ground is left soaked with salty, conductive tears.

Valight's sadness soon turns to rage. Why did Alfons have to ruin everything by being such a wimp? If he'd attacked, maybe Zekrom would have stayed longer! How dare he ruin the most perfect moment of Valight's life?! Now overflowing with genuine rage, he summons another curtain of mystical flames to surround him, charging at Alfons with all his might and beating the Deino black and blue(...r). When his temper finally subsides, he is left completely worn out and discombobulated, completely unable to think clearly. The sound beating manages to straighten out some of Alfons' numbed and dysfunctional muscles, and he decides to take them for a spin; however, he's still not quite supple enough yet, and his other joints suddenly lock up, crippling him and prevening him from attacking.

Still exhausted by his outburst, Valight is happy to see his trainer dancing in a non-aggressive fashion, prompting her to take a stand against the violence and make a passive-aggressive protest. Valight is just glad for the opportunity to rest, and he curls up to take a short mid-battle nap. Alfons is unimpressed, and asserts the dominance of violence over naptime by rushing toward his opponent with a snarl, crashing into the Dratini shoulder-first with all his weight and bowling the startled serpent over with a terrified squeal. Picking himself up off the ground, Valight just dusts himself off and goes back to quietly snoozing.

Opening one eye, he glances toward his trainer, who is still doing the napping dance. With a contented smile, Valight closes his eye again and returns to his siesta. Alfons is still very much fixated on destruction, marching up to Valight and opening his jaws, but again his muscles betray him, seizing up and causing him to flop to the ground in agony.

Now refreshed, Valight gives a yawn and reluctantly unfurls his tightly-coiled body, and turns to Alfons, regarding the poor, crippled Deino as he lies unmoving on the ground. Looks like he could use a hug, Valight thinks, still overflowing with pacifistic sappiness, and he slithers over to the poor little dragon and begins to wind his body around Alfons' midsection. At first he almost appreciates the gesture- he is feeling a little down right now- but Valight suddenly begins to squeeze much too hard, knocking the air right out of Alfons' lungs and making it difficult for him to communicate this fact to Valight. In addition, the squeeze strains his already-uncooperative joints, and with a painful-sounding crack he is rendered completely immobile.

Having become rather absorbed with his "hugging", Valight almost forgets he's supposed to be in a battle. Eventually, his trainer's frolicking reminds him where he is and he realises he should be attacking right about now. With a rather hoarse cough, he heaves a glob of toxic sludge into his throat from some venom gland or another that dragons apparently have and spits the disgusting mess onto Alfon's wildly-thrashing head. The gunk seeps straight into his head-fluff and starts corroding its way through his scales and into his blood, and he gives a disgusted snarl as he feels the vile substance dripping down his neck. Not wanting to spend another second trapped in the coils of this revolting serpent, Alfons rebels against its oppression; his jaws swing wide open, wherein a cluster of sixteen swirling orbs of energy orbit each other at incredible speed, each shining a different colour. The metallic grey sphere glints, and every other sphere responds by transforming into that colour, before they suddenly soar from Alfons' mouth and slam into Valight, exploding against his body in a flash of silver light before disappearing. Valight wails in pain at each impact, but none succeed at loosening his grip; in fact, he tightens it, as though to punish Alfons for trying to escape his clutches.

After this retaliation, Valight becomes suddenly docile; he almost seems to be dozing off, muttering and snorting dozily to himself and not paying much attention to the battle at all. Alfons frowns, perplexed, but just reasons that at least he can escape easier if his opponent is half-asleep. He struggles wildly to loosen Valight's hold on him, but this still yields no result; angrily, he bashes his head hard against Valight's, and when the Dratini barely seems to register the impact, he headbutts him again. This snaps Valight out of his little daydream, and he absentmindedly gives Alfons a squeeze with a quick tightening of his coils, extracting another squeak of pain from the dragon.

Valight shakes his head vigorously to snap himself out of whatever he was distracted by; what, did he just zone out there? He should probably start taking this battle more seriously, he thinks to himself, and so he decides to start finish off the round with a dead serious attack. Turning to the huge hole smashed in the far wall by the earlier arrival of N-Flareth, he lets out a shrill cry, and the air immediately drops measurably in temperature as a harsh wind blows into the throne room from the improvised Zekrom door. A freezing gale howls into the room, carrying with it a veritable crapton of hail and snow, and wraps around the two dragons, forming an intense tornado of ice and frigid air. When the wind eventually dies down, leaving the floor coated with inches of snow and the pools frozen over with a thick, icy crust, Valight is miraculously unharmed by the perishing conditions, but Alfons is frozen to the bone. When finally Valight's body heat warms Alfons up enough to feel his own extremities, a tremendous rage ignites in Alfons' heart. I've had enough of dealing with this stupid little serpent's crap, spitting poison on me and trying to freeze me to death, he thinks bitterly, fighting desperately against Valight's coils. If he doesn't let go of me right now, I swear to- ...and with a slight tightening of Valight's coils, Alfons snaps. He lets out a bellow of rage and sinks his fangs brutally into Valight's neck, his eyes glowing with pure hatred, ripping the Dratini off his front legs so he can use them to claw him to ribbons. Valight is too surprised by his sudden outburst to resist as Alfons kicks his way out of the Dratini's coils and begins to pummel the daylights out of him. Eventually, the red mist subsides slightly, and Alfons staggers off, panting in exhaustion, to rest before giving Valight another damn good hiding. Valight merely stares at him wide-eyed in fear, his head now fully cleared, staying alert in case Alfons loses his shit again.

Valight's astonishment quickly turns into seething anger at Alfons' audacity. Bringing his fury up to fever pitch, he generates a familiar coat of flames to surround his body, though just as he begins to charge them up into a rage-fuelled draconic inferno capable of roasting Alfons to a cinder, the doors to the throne chamber suddenly and dramatically slam open, turning the heads of everyone in the room. A lone figure steps calmly across the threshold and approaches the battleground, making no sound except the steady patter of his shoes against the floor. The trainers and Pokémon stand in awe as they examine him. That backpack, that Pokéball hat, that way he stands in austere silence; truly they must be in the presence of a great Pokémon trainer.

Suddenly, the stranger speaks.

Reaching the edge of the battlefield, he turns to the stunned figure of Valight, who still stands in awe staring at the trainer, the flames still flickering around his body. Regarding the Dratini for a few moments, the trainer opens his mouth and speaks a single word; an unremarkable, everyday word, but one that changes Valight's life forever.

"YES".

Valight blinks. "YES". "YES"... what an incredible sentiment. Encapsulated in that one single, solitary word, Valight sees everything that is good in the world. This veritable atom bomb of positivity rushes through his mind, reassuring him that everything will turn out okay and that there is hope for a brighter future. With that, he flings himself at Alfons with a ferocious roar as the stranger turns around and solemnly walks out of the room (cool guys don't look at draconic catfights), and lands on the equally furious Alfons. Before Alfons can stir up his own hate-filled orgy of violence, however, Valight binds his limbs in his coils, leaving him free to beat the living daylights out of the Deino while replaying the mysterious trainer's inspirational speech over and over in his head. Alfons struggles madly against Valight's grip, but doesn't manage to free himself, and the Dratini swiftly dodges every blow he swings with whatever appendage isn't pinned down. Eventually, Valight exhausts himself, and slithers away to recuperate momentarily; Alfons likewise used up so much effort in his struggling that he needs a breather too, never getting an opportunity to attack Valight.

After getting his breath back somewhat, Valight goes back on the offensive, albeit reluctantly; he was pretty worn out even before that little rampage, and if he goes through such exertion again he fears he might collapse. He takes a look at Alfons; the Deino doesn't seem to be doing very well himself. Just another light smack ought to be enough to see him off... gradually, through examining his wretched adversary, Valight stirs up the hatred inside him once more, and the strange trainer's positive reinforcement rings in his ears. Propelled by fury, he gives a final war cry and springs at his foe shrouded in a curtain of flame. His blazing body smashes into the worn-out Alfons, but by some miracle, the high-velocity draconic inferno collision doesn't leave a scratch on him; Valight simply slides right over him and crashes into the wall immediately behind, where the flames instantly dissipate and leave him lying completely still in the corner. Alfons trots over and gives Valight a poke with his foot; Valight responds with a colossal snore. That last Outrage took way too much out of him, and he collapsed from exhaustion. Arylett recalls her Pokémon and goes over to congratulate her opponent, and the referee hands out the prizes and wonders how on Earth they're going to get back to the 2010s.
