Arena Description: The Soaked City at Night
Thunder echoing across a long distance, this is the pinnacle of human architecture and technology; a gigantic, sprawling city, wrapped in miles of endless roads, and boasted a population of well in the millions of humans and pokemon. The city is planted with hundreds of sleek skyscrapers and dark buildings, yet despite the sheer scale of the city, and the number of living organisms, it was a remarkably clean metropolis, thanks to of course the abundance of services of pokemon and officials.

Normally battles are very difficult to hold outside. Of course, there were facilities specialized for battling, but with the sheer amount of trainers, it was rare to find one that was available making, the only other options to either host underground battles and risk incarceration, or to leave. This battle is one of the former.

The time of day is barely past eight o'clock. The city was much more quiet than usual, having endured a sudden deluge and lightning. This of course makes it much easier to host an underground battle, over a lonely street, as there was no business to be had in an empty neighbourhood. This road is 30 by 10 meters, and is completely abandon at night, other than the occasional Rattata and Pidgey, surrounded by somewhat tall but desolate apartments, relics of the city at it's older years. The weather is murky. but slowly clearing into a beautiful night skyline, and the thunder grows quieter and quieter by the minute

Due to the recent weather, fire moves are slightly weakened by 1% due to the damp covering the ground. Additionally, due to the wet surface and the electrifying air, electric moves are somewhat powered by 1%, though this water can be dried with heat and wind, and eventually the air will be normal, so this can be removed over the course of the battle. Also, the black, shiny road is very slippery, making it difficult for heavier pokemon to move properly.

As a last note, this is still an illegal battle in the eyes of the city. Although this area is usually isolated from the pell-mell, there still runs a risk of the police arriving. Property damage and sound based attacks will make it more likely to give the location away. If they do show up, then the battle will be relocated to a different area in the city, such as a nearby empty warehouse or alleyway.

Okay . . . Fluffy, let's go and dominate the opponent.

Let's go Wotter!

Let's start this fight with an Aqua Jet. Then try and lower defense with Rock Smash. Finally, use Taunt. If during any of these actions Fuffy Protects, use Swords Dance instead.

Aqua Jet/Swords Dance~Rock Smash/Swords Dance~Taunt/Swords Dance

You can power through this Fluffy, just stay calm and let's focus on debilitating the enemy and keeping up with them.

First, use Rock Tomb to try and stop Wotter's Aqua Jet from reaching you. Then, while she's reeling from the attack, use Automize to keep up with the faster opponent, and end with a Metal Claw, in hopes to buff yourself further. If you believe she'll dodge your assault before you began and she hasn't completed her Taunt yet, buff yourself with Iron Defense.

Evening descends on the city with a slow surety. Behind and above the towering faces of apartment buildings, the clouds churn with the faint rumblings of thunder, though they are gradually, gradually dispersing. It is on this lonely, damp street that we find two trainers and their Pokemon, eager to take part in an illegal battle. The ref, though slightly nervous, signals them to begin, keeping an eye out for the roaming police.

Wotter moves first. She shoots forward, prepared by a jet of high-pressure water, and slams into Fluffy without ceremony. The Aron grunts at the impact, already irritated. As Wotter is skipping back, he stomps on the road, calling upon energy of stone. Around Wotter, the road breaks into pieces, leaping up and pinning her down in an unconventional tomb; some of the edges cut into her. She squeaks at the impact, struggling to pull herself free of the prison. The ref looks around automatically, wondering if police have a built-in property damage detector.

With some effort, Wotter emerges. She moves with a slight limp — that Rock Tomb has left a mark. Nevertheless, she forms a little fist and darts forward, punching Fluffy in the face. It doesn’t send him skidding backward, thanks to his weight, but beneath his faceplate he winces at the fighting-type attack. Shaking himself, he prepares to react … but then he pauses, going over his command. Automize? What’s that? It sounds familiar. Oh, she must mean Autotomize! He knows that one. He concentrates, and soon bits and pieces of his armor are shaved away as if by magic, leaving him feeling much lighter.

In fact, he feels quick enough to move again right away! He concentrates on one of his legs, and it glows with metallic energy as he moves forward. Though the road is a little slippery, he manages to slice Wotter with his temporary claw. As he pulls away from the indignant Oshawott, he notices that traces of the energy still remain on his foreleg, and breaks into a grin underneath his faceplate. That grin soon fades, however, when Wotter chatters at him, accusing him of beating around the bush. That was it? Are you too busy trying to buff yourself to do any real damage? Lame. Fluffy snorts at the accusation, pawing at the ground, when—

“Officer, did you hear that?”

“I think so. What’s that?”

“Sounds like a Pokemon.”

“Sounds suspicious, is what it sounds.”

“Let’s check it out.”

A few minutes of fleeing the scene later, everyone has taken up a new stance in an alleyway farther away. The ref allows them to take stock of their situation, not done looking around in paranoia that the police aren’t far behind. Fluffy is still steamed, wanting nothing more than to pummel Wotter, while Wotter meets his incensed gaze.

Arena Notes:
- The battle is now taking place in a narrow alleyway.

Calculations:
- Fluffy’s health: 100% - 7% (Aqua Jet) - 7% (Rock Smash) = 86%
- Fluffy’s energy: 100% - 3% (Rock Tomb) - 2% (Autotomize) - 2% (Metal Claw) = 93%
- Wotter’s health: 100% - 13% (Rock Tomb) - 4% (Metal Claw) = 83%
- Wotter’s energy: 100% - 2% (Aqua Jet) - 3% (Rock Smash) - 4% (Taunt) = 91%

Other Notes:
- Rock Tomb was a critical hit.
- Because Automize sounds very close to Autotomize, Fluffy had a 50% chance to figure out what was meant by his command.
- As of the third action, Fluffy outspeeds Wotter (50 > 35).
- Metal Claw raised Fluffy’s attack.
- On the third action, the police were alerted, and the battlers moved to a new location.

Excellent job so far Fluffy. Seeing as you're enraged, let's let loose that anger and stun the opponent. Using the water on the ground, slide into and slam her with an Iron Head, then as fast as you can crush her with Stomp, then Dragon Rush.

Iron Head ~ Stomp ~ Dragon Rush

Alright Wotter, let's try and avoid some of those attacks by using Dig, followed by Protect.

Dig (for two actions)~Protect

Actually guys I just remembered that water resists steel. I fixed the damage so that Metal Claw only did 4% damage rather than 6%. Sorry about that.

If this changes how you want to command, let me know!

Edit: Wait, what am I talking about? 2% isn't paralysis. I'll work on the reffing anyway.

The round begins with Fluffy lowering his head, summoning a metal sheen over his metal faceplate. His feet smack against the damp concrete seconds before he headbutts Wotter; she squeaks and splashes slightly as she stumbles, but soon stands straight. Deciding she should get out of the way for a while, she starts to dig … but the concrete is in the way. She paws at the hard surface, wondering how Fluffy managed to break up the main road in the first round. Rock energy, maybe? Her thoughts are disrupted, though, as a little leg stomps down on her tail, and she growls angrily at the sudden impact.

Beneath his faceplate, Fluffy grins. With a little concentration, he brings blue flames roaring to life around him, and charges at his opponent once more. He strikes, hard … against an energy shield, sending him bouncing back. Wotter watches him collide with the ground, letting out a little sigh of relief at avoiding the attack.

Fuck. It's okay. We're okay.

Start off with a Rain Dance to raise water's effectiveness. Then use Water Pulse. Finally, Scald. If they Protect on the second or third action, use Swords Dance.

Rain Dance~Water Pulse/Swords Dance~Scald/Swords Dance

Excellent job Fluffy, you're doing great sweetie! While she's using Rain Dance, buff yourself further with Iron Defense, then kill the rain with a Sandstorm, and finally, shield yourself with Protect; we can't let that burn hit us.

Having decided he doesn’t like bouncing off of Protect shields, Fluffy decides to buff himself up a little in the defense department. He concentrates, and liquid metal seeps out of his pores, coating him in a thin layer of silver-gray. Wotter, unimpressed with this display, decides to show him how a real ‘mon gets it done by launching into a dance, slipping in and out of twisting curves. As she makes the finishing move, the clouds above rumble in approval, and raindrops splatter against the concrete in a savage rhythm.

Fluffy shakes his head. He knows he can do better than that. Lowering his head slightly, he reaches out toward the power of the land and stone … but the concrete is in the way. Even the dirt that would have littered the ground is seeped in water, and the faint stirrings of wind around his feet can’t dry it faster than the rain can fall. He considers this for a moment, then grumbles as he lets the rock energy slip away. Wotter, not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, raises her little paws and blasts a wave of watery energy at her opponent, boosted by the oncoming rain, pulsing with a low thrum.

The Water Pulse washes over Fluffy for a long moment, and when it’s over, he’s sputtering. That was not fun, he decides, and puts up a protective shield to prevent any more damage for the time being. Wotter doesn’t bother testing it, instead focusing on heightening her battling skills. She launches into another dance, this time spinning about with imaginary swords. When she comes to a stop, her claws and shell look a little sharper, and she stands ready for her next orders as a disappointed Fluffy lets his shield drop.

It's nothing Fluffy, now let's grind them a bit more. Fire a Shock Wave at 'em, then, poison her systems with Toxic, and finally show her your soft side with Attract. If at any point she Protects, Chill on that as well.

Shock Wave/Chill ~ Toxic/Chill ~ Atract/Chill

Protect against that Shock Wave, then wait until Fluffy begins to use Toxic and use Aqua Jet to dodge it. Finally, use Razor Shell.

Fluffy shakes himself, scattering rain everywhere. He’ll be sure to hit her this time, regardless of what she does. His form glows briefly yellow, and an electric current pulses from him, honing in on the target. Inches away, though, it dissipates into nothingness, having been thwarted by a transparent shield of protection. Wotter exhales as the electricity vanishes, glad to have avoided one of her weaknesses.

Really? Fluffy shakes himself. Well, this next one is sure to hit. He hocks up a nasty mix of goopy poisons — where they came from, everyone will be happy not to know — and vomits it up, letting it sail in a gross arc toward the otter … who shoots away in a blast of water, letting the Toxic splash harmlessly in a puddle where she had just been standing.

Third time’s a charm, right? Fluffy smooths his head spike, making it shine even as the rain is coming down. His big blue eyes gaze at Wotter, who stares back with a look of interest. Say, he’s actually kind of cute, isn’t he? Pretty much harmless when you get down to it. Her paw, which had been grasping at her shell, seems to forget what it’s doing as she raises it to her face. Does she look okay? What if she smooths her fur like this? She barely notices the rain lighten, and the clouds above drift in their slow parade.

You know what Wotter? The more of you there are the more there is for Fluffy to admire, so use Double Team to make clones. Also, the fastest way to a man's heart is through song, so use Round on the second and third action if you're attracted to Fluffy. If you're not though, use Razor Shell and try and lower defense.

Double Team~Razor Shell (if not attracted)/Round (if attracted) x2

Looks like you've found an admirer sweetie. Use Aerial Ace to pinpoint the real her, then if you found the real her, spew some more Toxic, but if you haven't then just Chill that turn, and Chill the next turn as well.

As the round begins, Fluffy considers his commands. The real Wotter? There’s only one of her there. Unless it’s a trick somehow? With a quick burst of flying energy, he speeds through the air and slams into the Oshawott, who stumbles back. Fluffy grins to himself, glad that there’s no weird trickery going on here. His admirer, meanwhile, giggles to herself at the fact that he actually touched her! Maybe this could work out after all.

Fluffy, despite his assurance that there’s no cloning going on, doesn’t feel much like giggling. In fact, as he pulls more of the natural poisons from within him, he feels like he’s going to be sick. With no small amount of revulsion, even though he’s immune to the actual effects, he heaves a generous helping of toxic gloop at Wotter. It splatters disgustingly across her fur, seeping down into her skin and further into her system. She stares down at herself, and some of the sparkle in her eye flickers out. Did he just … Did he …? A look of disgusted despair crosses her features, and she lets out a reverberating wail that echoes off the buildings. Fluffy rolls his eyes at what’s more an annoyance than anything else, and is about to try to lie down and just ignore it when—

“Hey, it’s more noise!”

“More noise? Don’t they know that sounds suspicious?”

“Heh. Sounds suspicious. I get it.”

“Oh, come on and let’s find whatever’s making it. Darn kids …”

A hasty retreat ensues, and eventually everyone involved arrives at another out-of-the-way road. They keep an ear out in case anyone is approaching, but for now it seems like the coast is clear. The round has come to a sudden end, but the battle isn’t over.
