Heal Block ~ Confuse Ray ~ Psychic

Arena: Easter Island

A circle of sand, surrounded by Moai statues in the shape of Nosepass. The statues send out a mystical force, stopping Pokemon from leaving. Attacks can get through, and there is ocean water to fuel attacks like surf. Earthquake does 3% less damage, due to the sand, and, for the same reason, Dig's holes fill up automatically. There is a pool of water in the middle for water Pokemon to swim in.


Round Six: Begin!

Without warning Dōtaku barges into Obtis's mind again, this time taking no chances and suppressing her ability to stimulate her body's natural healing processes. Now that she's fully awake as she experiences this invasion and is fully aware of what the Bronzor has done to her the Zigzagoon does not intend to take it lying down. She might not be able to repair any wounds, but she can certainly force her body temperature as low as she can make it given the bright sunlight beaming down on the island from overhead. She inhales deeply and then exhales as hard as she can, forcing a surprisingly cold blast of wind out of her little body and in Dōtaku's direction. A thin layer of ice coats Dōtaku's face for a second time, which does irritate it a little, but its extra defenses allow it to block out much of the damage.

[Obtis: -0H, -6E, defense +1, heal blocked, panting] - [Dōtaku: -2H, -3E, attack -1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, chilly but not much else]

While Obtis's last attack might not have been as powerful as it could've been under different circumstances, Dōtaku is not in the mood to risk any more frosting weighing it down or immobilizing it and so attempts another confuse ray. Flashing, pirouetting lights wend their way towards Obtis, and this time she can see them full well. The raccoon is completely mesmerized by the lights and colors, enjoying the display and unaware of the fact that her mind is melting into putty as it tries to keep up. Dōtaku's light show fades away at last and Obtis hangs her head, a little sad that her entertainment has gone away and now she has to go to work. Lucky for her, in her addled state she has forgotten just how strenuous that work was the last time she tried it. The sand is just as soft and difficult to dig through as it was before, and when Obtis at last reaches a reasonable depth she is puzzled as to why she is so exhausted. And surrounded by sand. She wasn't surrounded by so much sand before, just a few silly rocks... huh?

[Obtis: -0H, -5E, defense +1, heal blocked, confused, ...where am I?] - [Dōtaku: -0H, -1E, attack -1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, not this again]

Simply shaking the ground while its foe was hidden somewhere beneath it was pretty simple. Now that Dōtaku can't see Obtis, however, targeting her is going to be just a little bit harder. It takes the Bronzor a moment to seek out its target, scanning the area below it for Obtis's mental signature. By the time it finds what it is looking for Obtis has already started to fight her way back up to the surface. She doesn't remember what she's supposed to be doing once she gets there, of course, but she'll work that out when she gets there; she just wants to be able to move freely and breathe properly again. Just as she prepares to force her paw upward through the sand again an excruciating pain grips her head and shoots down her spine, stopping her cold. All Obtis can do as Dōtaku fiddles with her brain's pain centers is grit her teeth and try not to cry out lest she get a mouthful of choking sand. Dōtaku relaxes its hold on her after a minute or two of torture and turns its face to the sun, figuring it'll take Obtis a while to resurface through all that sand. If she resurfaces at all, of course. In the meantime, it can just wait for the ice on its face to melt. And the ice has melted entirely when Obtis at last fights her way back to the world above, panting heavily, completely unrecognizable due to all of the sand covering her and so exhausted and puzzled that she doesn't even notice the sharp rocks zipping over to her new position to circle around her again. After taking another moment to catch her breath she considers her options. She's pretty sure she's supposed to do something specific to Dōtaku if she's angry, but... she doesn't feel all that upset, really. Just tired, achy and puzzled, mostly. So she falls back on her other orders and launches a beam of bright blue energy at the Bronzor's back, just as it finishes shaking the last droplet of melted ice off of its front. Once again Dōtaku finds itself more annoyed than anything else, well protected as it is. Aw, man, and it had just finished thawing out...

[Obtis: -17H, -9E, defense +1, heal blocked, confused, frustrated] - [Dōtaku: -1H, -4E, attack -1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, aargh stop with the cold]

Round Six: Close

All of the digging she's been doing recently has completely tuckered Obtis out. And all the the powerful attacks she's tried using on Dōtaku are barely affecting it. She's never been more frustrated in her life... at least, she doesn't think she has. She can't rightly remember at the moment. If only her head would stop swimming... Dōtaku, while still rather irritated by the ice covering it, isn't feeling too shabby. Huh. Maybe that extra buffer wasn't so pointless after all. It is kind of tired, though.

There is a pool of water in the middle for water Pokemon to swim in.


Round Seven: Begin!

Bright, colorful lights weave through the air a third time, dancing hypnotically toward the exhausted and befuddled Obtis. This time, however, she finds that she is not particularly impressed with the display; she has no idea what it is, why it's there and why she should care about it when she should be focusing on more important things. Sitting down and ignoring the lights for now the Zigzagoon takes a deep breath and tries to sort out her jumbled thoughts. What to do, what to do, what to do and how to do it... At last she remembers that her current state is pretty much all Dōtaku's fault. Stupid sparkly. And given how relaxed it appears to be, Obtis thinks it's only fair that Dōtaku shares in her frustration. Her fur bristles and she spits insults at her foe, mocking and goading it and trying not to stumble over her words in the process. Though its immobile face cannot show it, Dōtaku finds itself fairly upset by Obtis's snide remarks. It tells itself to stop and think rationally for a moment, forcing itself to remain calm and remember that its opponent is just a confused little raccoon that hasn't been able to hurt it seriously so far and doesn't pose much of a thread. Why lose its cool now?

[Obtis: -0H, -3E, defense +1, heal blocked, confused, frustrated] - [Dōtaku: -0H, -1E, attack -1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, disappointed and a little angry]

The Nosepass statues, still resonating with the strange, time and speed warping energy, cease emitting the particular mystical power Dōtaku had temporarily imbued them with. Obtis smiles a little as she feels her tired body returning more or less to its normal, mobile self; thus invigorated she wastes no time resuming her swaggering and insulting, certain that repeated abuse will cause Dōtaku to crack eventually. And crack it does. The second round of bragging and taunting manages to strike a nerve and incenses Dōtaku. Why, that little... but it stops itself. Some shreds of serenity and mental soundness are still left in the Bronzor's mind from its earlier calming exercises and meditations, and they manage to get through to it for the time being. Don't freak out, Dōtaku tells itself. It's not worth it. Just relax... she'll get hers plenty soon enough! And so Dōtaku takes it easy, turning its back in the sun's general direction to speed up the melting of the ice still on its back. Obtis scowls, angry that Dōtaku isn't... doing... whatever she'd been hoping it would do. She's forgotten again. In her confused and irritated state she fails to notice that a few specific areas of her brain have perked up a little. If she could think straight enough to accomplish it, she might be able to heal herself again...

[Obtis: -0H, -3E, defense +1, confused, miffed but not entirely sure why] - [Dōtaku: -0H, +8E, attack -1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, very upset but trying to stay calm]

Too frustrated to care about the sharp rocks still hovering around her--or perhaps she's forgotten about those, too--Obtis leaps into the air and crashes into Dōtaku again, flailing, scratching and smashing with as much force as she can muster. Dōtaku sinks a little under the assault, worried slightly by it, but it notes with some relief that at least it seems to be less powerful than it was the first time she attacked like this. Maybe she isn't upset enough... or maybe she's just tired. Or maybe she has some sort of weird feelings for it (hey, she tried to attract it earlier, after all) and wants to go easy on it... wait, no, that doesn't make sense. Or does it? Dōtaku isn't sure any longer, but whatever it is it's really annoying and confusing. The floating mirror spends the next few minutes trying to make up its mind and figure the whole thing out, all thoughts of anger and even relaxation completely pushed from its mind.

[Obtis: -2H, -4E, defense +1, confused, panting heavily and ready to fall over] - [Dōtaku: -4H, -0E, attack -1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, buh...]

Round Seven: Close

Neither Dōtaku nor Obtis is able to think clearly at the moment, although Obtis's mind is ever so slightly less muddled than her opponents is. Which is a good thing for her--she hardly has the energy to sort out her swimming brain. She just wants to close her eyes, sleep for a few days... that is, of course, going to be exceedingly difficult with Dōtaku around, and more difficult still if it is able to calm itself down and think rationally again.

Ref's Notes
-Confuse Ray generally failed because Obtis was already confused; I did give it a small chance of aggravating her confusion, but the random number gods said it was not to be.
-Obtis's first Swagger failed.
-Dōtaku's confused and aggravated state prevented it from recovering full energy on the second action.
-Dōtaku was fully confused on the third action and so was unable to focus on chilling.
-Blastoise428 attacks first next round.​
 
Let's put that little blighter to sleep with Hypnosis and hit her with Dream Eater. If you fail to use Hypnosis (or the move itself fails/misses), use it in the second action, or in the third if you were unable to in the first or second actions.

There is a pool of water in the middle for water Pokemon to swim in.


Round Eight: Begin!

It it Obtis's turn to attempt to relax, and for once she actually manages it. She closes her eyes and takes a breather, enjoying the sunlight and a reprieve from Dōtaku's attacks. This reprieve is not by any means intentional, of course; the Bronzor is simply unable to see straight at the moment, let alone think straight enough to hypnotize Obtis again.

[Obtis: -0H, +10E, confused, relaxing but still tired] - [Dōtaku: -0H, -0E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, wait, what?]

...And the second round is the same story. Slowly but surely the exhaustion is beginning to lift from Obtis's body, and she's starting to feel much better--still muddled, of course, but not so bad physically. All Dōtaku can do is float and fume. It has absolutely no clue what should be happening right now, and this inability to figure the situation out is driving it hopping mad.

[Obtis: -0H, +10E, confused, relaxing and feeling a little better] - [Dōtaku: -0H, -0E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, ARGH]

Still fairly tired but feeling sufficiently rested for now, Obtis stands up, stretches and dusts herself off. That little catnap in the sun was nice and all, but by now she's quite sandy and hot. Wouldn't it be nice if she could just cool off a little, maybe rinse off some sand? And, perhaps, put a little hurt on Captain Evil Sparkly in the process? The Zigzagoon growls and throws her head back, exerting an eerie influence on the tides and causing the water around the island to run up against the shore in larger and stronger waves. Just as a truly massive wave comes charging at the island Obtis leaps into it, catching the wave and riding it like a body-boarder as it crashes down on Dōtaku. The excessive amount of water pounds it flat into the ground and batters it, leaving Dōtaku stuck in the newly-wet sand as it breaks and runs off into the sea again. The constant drumming of the water against its body does not help Dōtaku's mental state, and so it simply lays where it is for a while, dazed. Obtis smiles and shakes herself vigorously, refreshed by the nice wash.

[Obtis: -0H, -4E, confused, satisfied for now] - [Dōtaku: -5H, -0E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, wet and out of it]

Round Eight: Close

Dōtaku manages to free itself from the sand at last and drifts back to its previous height, still quite confused and with something of a headache. All it can work out right now is that all of this is Obtis's fault, and as soon as it sets its mind straight it'll... um... something. Obtis continues to shake herself dry, enjoying herself while she can.

Ref's Notes
-Sorry for the delay. D:
-Dōtaku was fully confused on all three actions.
-It occurs to me that I forgot to remove Obtis's defense boost a while back because, well, she isn't curled up any more. Duh, Kratos. It's noted now, though, and luckily I don't think it ever affected anything anyway so there's no need for any rewrites. I also majorly screwed up Dōtaku's end stats and mid-round stats several times last round--again, it didn't affect anything, but obviously I need to pay more attention. Sorry about all that.
-Ekibyōgami attacks first next round.​

Well, just Chill at first. If you're awake during the second action, jump onto Dōtaku's face and Thunder her, and if not, chill. If you're awake, stay were you are and chill. If you're asleep, try a Snore.

Round Nine: Begin!

Nice as another respite sounds right about now, Obtis has other things on her mind--specifically, the wet sand all around her. She finds herself suddenly very interested in how clear marks and prints left in it are, and so spends the next few minutes doodling with a claw instead of actually resting. Her scratches aren't exactly recognizable as anything, but she isn't particularly concerned about that. Dōtaku, seeing its opponent preoccupied, seizes its chance. At last it has managed to remember what it was supposed to do last round: send Obtis back to Dreamland again. Its eyes flash menacingly as it glares at the Zigzagoon, locking eyes with her... or, what it believes is her. Its vision is still swimming a little from the confusion and that massive wave, and thus its aim is rather off. The phantom Obtis it sees remains awake, as does the real one some distance away.

[Obtis: -0H, -0E, confused, doodle doodle doodle :D] - [Dōtaku: -0H, -3E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, argh, why isn't anything going right?!]

It takes Obtis a few moments to realize just what it is she's been doing for the past five minutes, and when she figures it out she is suddenly quite ashamed of herself. Eager to make up for the time she's wasted doodling she runs forward (copping a few scratches from the sharp rocks still floating silently around her in the process), leaps into the air and lands on Dōtaku's face. Its surface, slick and slanted, is too difficult for her to gain any purchase on, and so she slides off and back down onto the sand. Her face flushes a bright red underneath her fur--messed up again!--but she continues with her attack anyway, determined to redeem herself. She screws up her face and dark clouds begin to roll in over the island, temporarily blocking out the sun. A massive bolt of lightning crashes down from the clouds without warning... but misses Dōtaku entirely, striking the sand several feet away from it and fusing it into glass. Dōtaku stays completely still, dazzled by the blinding white light and unable to do much of anything at the moment. Obtis hands her head in shame. She's very disappointed in herself and doesn't want to imagine what her trainer thinks at the moment. She is secretly glad, however, that she wasn't still on Dōtaku's face when the attack hit. If the lightning bolt hadn't missed, she might've been fried along with it.

[Obtis: -2H, -7E, confused, terribly embarrassed] - [Dōtaku: -0H, -0E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, @_@]

The dark thunderheads slowly drift away and Obtis, still tired and disheartened after her previous two failures, sinks down to the ground and tries to relax. Maybe if she can just clear her mind and rest a little she won't screw up so often. She turns to look at Dōtaku, pouting with frustration, and is a little surprised to see it looking straight back at her (and not above her and to her left as it was before). Its eyes are glowing, and the air between them is rippling and shimmering slightly. The mesmerized Obtis cannot look away until her eyelids droop shut of their own accord and she is sound asleep once again.

[Obtis: -0H, +10E, confused, asleep, unhappy] - [Dōtaku: -0H, -3E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, finally]

Round Nine: Close

As she sleeps on, Obtis notices that her dreams are a lot more lucid than they were before. Her senses appear to have returned to her at last; now, if only she were awake so she could actually do something about it. Dōtaku, unfortunately, has no such luck. It is still quite dazed and confused, its only consolation that it was finally able to do something right this round.

Round Ten: Begin!

Obtis can rest relatively easily now that her mind is calm and clear, and so she rolls over onto her side and sleeps on, enjoying her respite. This respite is short-lived, however. Determined to keep plowing ahead now that it's actually been successful, Dōtaku forces its way into the Zigzagoon's mind and picks away at her dreams, taking them as sustenance for itself. Obtis whimpers a little as her opponent drags her cool and collected visions away.

[Obtis: -16H, +8E, asleep, troubled] - [Dōtaku: +8H, -3E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, feeling a little better]

Obtis tries again, attempting to summon up more good dreams and relax. And the persistent Dōtaku weasels right back in, sucking up her dreams and enjoying the clarity of her thought until it seems as though she has run out again.

[Obtis: -16H (capped at 4), +8E, asleep, troubled] - [Dōtaku: +2H, -3E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, why does that keep happening?]

Obtis sleeps on, quite upset by now but still determined to stay on top of things. She gets to her feet, mumbling yet again, and as she whispers a number of white orbs materialize in the air around her and begin to spin in a circle. The ring of orbs spins faster and faster and then, with a shout from Obtis, the little spheres turn an ominous black and shoot off towards the Bronzor, smacking into its surface. Dōtaku grunts--the attack wasn't particularly painful--and tries to invade Obtis's mind once more, but there don't appear to be any dreams left for it to take and it backs out, leaving a relieved Obtis behind.

[Obtis: -16H (capped at 0), -4E, asleep, that's better] - [Dōtaku: -3H, -3E, attack +1, sp. attack +2, sp. defense +2, confused, crap, I'm finally getting it right but IT'S NOT WORKING]
