Far, far in the vast reaches of space, a simple galaxy hangs lazily among the stars. Though the planets are currently devoid of Italian plumbers, the peace is not to last, as a pair of twin screams echo across the emptiness. Suddenly, two frazzled trainers land in an awkward heap on the starting planet, having been slingshotted by some strange star technologies. A rabbit hops over, sniffing curiously, but its little nose gets swatted as one of the trainers haphazardly flails an arm out to gain their balance. Startled, the rabbit sprints to safety behind a boulder, and it peeks from behind to watch as the two get to their feet and spend a moment taking in this strange place. The ref soon arrives in similar fashion, grumbling as she shakes off her disorientation, and before long she invites them to select their first Pokemon.
On Dazel’s side, a fuzzy lion cub strikes a pose, baring his fangs in a preparatory grin. On MrKyurem’s side, a magma slug shrinks back a little at the sight, wondering just how much damage those fangs can do. While Thundercat enjoys the wary looks, he soon decides to get the ball rolling by separating himself from his weakness. Spreading out the toes on his paws, he concentrates on channeling his own magnetic field against that of the planet, and soon — sooner than he expects, even, judging by the look his face — he bobs above the drastic curvature of the planet, relishing in the feeling of weightlessness. Salt Burns, glad that he isn’t getting creamed at the moment, decides to keep things that way: though his psychic powers are limited, he nevertheless gets a golden dome going around him, a dome which, though hardly apt at blocking sights and sounds, sets an odd shimmer in the surrounding air that provides protection against physical assault.
Thundercat shakes his head. Physical assault? Where he’s going, he won’t need physical assault. He leans back, mouth wide open, and an electric charge forms in his mouth, growing to a considerable size, before it sparks, leaps as a mighty bolt, and slams into the Slugma, who winces as the electricity sizzles in his system. Not one to let that fly, Salt Burns rumbles to himself, deep in his diaphragm, and the starting planet, though a strange new place, responds. Beneath Thundercat, the earth shifts and broils, faster and faster, fairly erupting in an earthy onslaught that forms into a large pile before collapsing … and Thundercat looks on, faintly amused and safely out of reach. Salt Burns curses to himself, watching in dismay as the dirt crumbles back onto the ground.
Without much fanfare, Thundercat unleashes another Thunderbolt, meowing proudly when the attack is enough to send Salt Burns skidding across the ground, leaving a burnt skidmark in the earth. Salt Burns returns, oozing in annoyance, to once more call upon the power of the land, but the rumbling earth, as before, fails to so much as lightly dust Thundercat. The Shinx grins, tail twitching, as he watches his foe’s eyes narrow in preparation of his next move.
Dazel (Ooo)
Thundercat (M) Intimidate / Levitate
Health: 100%
Energy: 90%
Status: Smirking. Magnet Rise active (2 more actions).
Actions: Magnet Rise ~ Thunderbolt ~ Thunderbolt
MrKyurem (Ooo)
Salt Burns (M) Flame Body
Health: 74%
Energy: 87%
Status:
”Oh, it’s on.” Reflect active (2 more actions). Att -1.
Actions: Reflect ~ Earth Power ~ Earth Power
Arena Notes:
- Both Pokemon are on the starting planet.
Calculations:
- Thundercat’s health: 100%
- Thundercat’s energy: 100% - 2% (Magnet Rise) - 4% (Thunderbolt) - 4% (Thunderbolt) = 90%
- Salt Burns’s health: 100% - 11% (Thunderbolt) - 15% (Thunderbolt) = 74%
- Salt Burns’s energy: 100% - 1% (Reflect) - 5% (Earth Power) - 1% (Reflect) - 5% (Earth Power) - 1% (Reflect) = 87%
Other Notes:
- Thundercat outspeeds Salt Burns (45 > 20).
- I'm assuming that switching planets will cost an action.
- Due to the effects of the arena, Magnet Rise cost 1% less energy than it would have otherwise.
- The second Thunderbolt was a critical hit.
