    Naw, I made a bunch of misplays, too - not to mention that if Mandarb wasn't paralyzed when she was supposed to steal the Magmarizer, she probably would've avoided a lot of damage. Anyway, hopefully I won't see you /too/ soon in this year's tournament; I need a break from battling scary people. OTL

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Oh phew, that was one of the most nerve-wracking yet fun battles I've ever had. Really good game, Negrek! Right down to the wire, and I wasn't even sure if I'd be able to hit Mandarb this last round, heh.

    HURP Change of plans. Hail, why you gotta crash my Double Team party? Final stretch, Khao! Almost there. If you can push through this (and with the healthy lead you have here, you better!), then we have a pretty good shot at becoming champions! So hang in there. Let's avoid all that nasty...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    ... okay! Man I'm thinking too hard about this D: Khao, take a moment to Chill, first of all. If Mandarb tries to Snatch it, reward her with a Focus Punch. Next action, if you didn't Chill before, do so now. Otherwise, use Heat Wave. If she has your Magmarizer, use Focus Blast instead. If...

    Will Flamethrower cost the normal amount of energy and cause the same amount of damage now?

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Okay, Khao, I know you won't like this, but we need to get to Mandarb. Go right up to her, and if you have any time left, heft her out of the water and onto dry land with Strength, doing your best to hold onto her so she can't scamper back to the shallows. If, on the second action, you haven't...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Since the water is about a meter deep and Typhlosion is 1.7 metres tall, Khao should be able to wade through it with minimal adverse effects, yes? And I'm pretty sure he should be able to reach Mandarb in one action? Would dashing through the water with Quick Attack reduce adverse effects, if...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Hm, right then... Well, we don't have many options while Mandarb is in the water. We'll just have to make do with three Focus Blasts and hope they all hit! If Mandarb Rests, well, she'll have to get out of the water if she doesn't want to drown. In that case, take a moment to Chill, and if you...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Shouldn't Khao have used Flamethrower before Mandarb's Snarl on the first action? From the description it sounded like Mandarb managed to hit Khao first, even though she's paralyzed and Khao is naturally faster. Edit: Also, iirc, subs still take damage from weather so would Khao's sub be at 10%...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Hmm... Open with a Flamethrower before Mandarb can Snarl at you and lower your special attack. If rain settles in, then oh well, we'll have to settle for Focus Blast (and be sure to aim well!). Then, create a 20% sub - that should protect us from the next two Snarls. End with Focus Punch. If...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Let's let my starter take the stage. Khao, you're up. Open with Eruption. I don't know if it'll be considered super-effective since it should completely engulf Mandarb, including her armour, but who cares it's a solid starting move. Go ahead and throw up a medium Substitute if you can't hit...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    If Negrek has scared away the Cricketot (poor bugs ;~;) then just throw a Thunder at Mandarb and go out with a bang. Hopefully it'll aggravate her paralysis. If the Cricketot decide to show up in defiance to Negrek, Taunt Mandarb before she can Taunt you. Then aggravate her paralysis with...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Oh dear, this isn't looking good. Well, you're protected by the damage cap anyhow. Let's just soften Mandarb up as much as we can before we go out. To conserve energy (every bit counts at this point), let your Light Screen fall. Then, start with Taunt. If she tries to cover her ears or...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Alright, Yukianesa. By my calculations those three Flamethrowers should deprive Yoshiya of energy completely. So, let's turn visible. To lessen the damage, though, stick up a Light Screen. Next, Spite the Flamethrower for good measure. End with Hail. Should you fall asleep, though, do nothing...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Crap, I forgot to tell Yukianesa to reappear again. That's some wasted energy. Well, my frigid ghost, you can go ahead and turn visible, but if at any time your Substitute is broken, turn invisible again. Now that that's out of the way, actual commands! Well... We can't do much until Yoshiya...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Well, there's not much we can do. Yukianesa, give me a 20% Substitute, then Chill, and end with an Avalanche. See if we can't bury Yoshiya. If you fall asleep due to the arena's effects, Chill the first action and do nothing for the rest. When you wake up, 20% Substitute. And if you are fully...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Doesn't Pain Split count as a direct healer? I'm quite sure it should be listed in Yukianesa's status. Well, we're just about even now, I'd say. Make yourself invisible first of all, and since I don't think that costs an entire action, you may as well call a Thunder down on Yoshiya. Then...

    [09] Negrek vs blazheirio889 (ref: Chiropter)

    Alright. Yukianesa, looks like we'll have to suck up that Fire Blast. Take it as best as you can, and then Sing while the gravity's still strong. Cross your fingers, my frigid ghost! If all goes well and Yoshiya is asleep, then Dream Eater, and target his energy. If he isn't, though, even the...
