Terrain: Castelia City Square
Castelia City is the gateway to Unova, its port welcoming trainers from around the world. Today those trainers include a fair number from Asber, turned out to compete or spectate on the first round of the League Championship. The city square at the center of Castelia has been reserved for the first round of battle, its broad cobbled expanse providing plenty of room to fight and the central fountain offering a refuge for pokémon that would rather swim than stand. Skyscrapers rise on all sides, framing the scene with the imposing prosperity of Castelia City.
More than just Asber's own trainers have turned out for the battles, though; plenty of curious Castelia residents and tourists mill about the rim of the arena, hoping to catch a few exciting battles. To ensure that they don't go unsatisfied, the regional authorities have generously--and forcefully--provided some of Unova's most powerful pokémon for the trainers to test-drive and show off for the crowd. Unfortunately, with the number of battles that need to be run through before the TCoD League's lease on the square expires, some of the fights might have to be truncated a bit.
For this battle, you will be using a pokémon on loan from the Unova League. Your choices are below. The first player will get first pick of pokémon, and the second will make their pick and then attack as usual. This match will be capped at five rounds. If both pokémon are still standing at the end of round five, the pokémon's health and energy will be added together and the one with the most will be declared the winner.

Round 5 Begin!
Tuft knows that what he does now will make or break the battle. Quickly, he casts his mind out over Eelektross', a green glow becoming evident around her almost immediately. It tears itself from her and pours over to Tuft; it's just too much for Eelektross to handle, and she falls to the ground with a
thud, unmoving. The crowd cheers and roars as Tuft strikes up a victory pose, showing off just a bit.
Each trainer recalls their Pokémon and then hands the Pokéball over to the official who comes to retrieve them. Then the referee comes up to the battlers, deals with the formalities - like giving Mai their first-round victor's medallion, and giving both battlers their money - then, with a flash of green light, they teleport away.
Round 5 End!

Notes
- The only way to get Eelektross to be fast enough to even
hope to hit before Accelgor would be a priority move, really. Which it... can't learn. Hm.
