Ether's Bane V. Wargle

Ok Gremlin, you're most likely still feeling GREAT. So we're going to show your new friend how GREAT you feel.

Now, you're slower than her, but not for long. We haven't made use of this radio tower before, but now we will with FREQUENCY hahaha *shot*

Sorry. I'll stop. But it's on now. Electric attacks are back on the menu. Slow her down with Electroweb, actually do it twice. Then if you feel GREAT use Return. If you don't feel GREAT use Thunderbolt. If you can't hit for any reason that is not a sub, chill.

Electroweb/Chiil x2 ~ Return/Chill
 
You're faster, so lead with Substitute at 15%. Then if Electroweb breaks the Substitute, use Protect; otherwise, use Rock Slide. Finally, use Rock Slide.

Substitute (15%) ~ Rock Slide/Protect ~ Rock Slide
 
I just noticed I wrote a move in the text that isn't in the string (action 3 Thunderbolt). Want me to fix it or is it ok?
 
edit @ Wargle: as you can see, you're fine. :p

------------------------------​

The second Cyrix bursts out of her Poké Ball, she leans down and tears out a huge chunk of grass with her teeth, chewing her cud and processing it through all four chambers of her stomach in a matter of seconds (somehow) before spitting it back out and molding it into the shape of a second Miltank with her hands. A nudge with her nose and a quick touch of breath later the construct quivers to life, calmly waving its tail back and forth as it plods unhurriedly to stand between Cyrix and her opponent. It reaches its spot just in time to intercept the bundle of electrified thread that Gremlin spits in the Miltank's direction. The clump of silk expands into an intricate web and drapes itself seemingly harmlessly over the blob of cow, and then suddenly electricity is crawling all over blob of cow's grassy hide, drawing sparks from the radio tower to electrify it further.

Now somewhat agitated, blob of cow blinks several bits of web out of its eyes and turns to its maker with a plaintive moo. Cyrix nods once at her creation and echoes the cry, more loudly, and the earth rumbles a little in response. She stomps one foot on the ground, then the other, and several rocks fly up from the ground, hovering uncertainly in the air before she directs them to their target. All thoughts of more spidery creations are struck from Gremlin's head as the Rotom is pummeled by a barrage of dust and debris, burying it in a heap of jagged, dirty stone. As Gremlin struggles to extract itself from its predicament, throwing away one rock at a time with its oven mitt-covered claws, the Miltank slams into the ground again, calling up another crowd of rocks to swarm her foe. Gremlin cringes to itself and starts digging faster, managing to lift itself out and zoom away just before they rain down upon its former rocky prison. Visibly shaken, the Rotom can do little more than launch a quick bolt of electricity at the Miltank, which gathers energy from the nearby tower and... is stopped from hitting Gremlin's real foe by her grassy doppelganger, who takes the blow for itself before bursting into pieces with a final, echoing moo.

  • A large pile of rocks lies on the ground near Gremlin.

Damage and Energy
  • Cyrix's Health: 100% - 15% (Substitute) + 3% (Leftovers) = 88%
  • Cyrix's Substitute: 15% - 8% (Electroweb) - 14% (Thunderbolt) = 0%

Notes
  • Cyrix's first Rock Slide made Gremlin flinch. Her second Rock Slide missed.
  • After getting hit and flinched by that Rock Slide and only barely avoiding another, Gremlin did not feel so GREAT. So she used Thunderbolt.
  • Ether's Bane commands first.

Spam Rock Slide, unless Gremlin uses a status move, in which case, use Protect.

------------------------------​

As Cyrix eyes her opponent warily to see what the Rotom's going to do next, Gremlin takes advantage of the moment to spit out another net of electrified thread that falls over Cyrix's head, sending faint pulses of electricity sizzling through her body at every place it touches. Cyrix moos in distress and tries to shake the web off, but it gets tangled around her udders and hooves, getting in her way as she slams her front hooves into the ground once again. A rocky shelf above Gremlin cracks and then dislodges from its wall of stone, breaking into pieces that rain down mercilessly upon the unfortunate Rotom as Cyrix casually bites down into the apparently everlasting apple core hanging around her neck.

Gremlin eyes the Leftovers jealously. Crisp apple fried in its very own oven sure sounds like something it could go for right now... Cackling gleefully as it surrounds itself with dark energy, Gremlin suddenly rushes its opponent, grabbing onto the string around her neck with a claw and pulling as hard as it possibly can. When the cord finally snaps, it leaves a visible mark where it dug into the Miltank's neck, and Gremlin claws her over the head for good measure before zooming away with its pilfered prize. Crying out in horror, Cyrix thrashes uncontrollably on the ground, and one of the piles of shattered rock lying on the ground rises up again to batter Gremlin over the head in punishment. Trying its best to look unfazed, the Rotom takes a small bite out of the apple that belongs to it now. Hm. Could use some roasting.

The Rotom casually opens up its oven and tosses the Leftovers inside, eyes glowing red as its oven begins to heat up. Deciding it's not going to pull anything else tricky right now, Cyrix lifts herself up to slam back into the ground. Just as she's about to make contact with the ground, Gremlin rushes back at her, taking advantage of her lowered guard to thump her about the head with claws shrouded in dark energy. Hmph! What a disgusting tactic! A bit shaken, Cyrix rolls away and resumes her ground-slamming, sending a shower of rocks to pummel Gremlin yet again.

------------------------------​

Gremlin heaves a sigh of relief as Cyrix makes no move to hurt it, but instead summons up a shield of transparent energy to protect herself from incoming attacks. Now Gremlin can take a short break. So it settles down on one of the piles of rocks and nibbles on its apple contentedly, taking a moment to regain some of its stamina in peace.

Of course, this moment of calm is not to last, and as soon as Cyrix lets down her shield Gremlin lets loose with a large bolt of electricity that grows even larger as it absorbs energy from the nearby radio tower. The waves of electricity course through Cyrix's body and she moos despondently, unable to do anything to help herself until the sparks fade away. When they do, she treats Gremlin to yet another shower of rock, and the Rotom is temporarily crushed to the ground under the onslaught.

It soon recovers, though, and lifts its claws up into the air a final time. Bursts of electricity fly from them, again absorbing power from the ambient radio waves, to shock the poor Miltank again. Perhaps unwisely given all the sparks crackling around her, Cyrix holds up her arms and moos to call up a huge wave of water from the nearby lake, which bears her up to ride the frothing mass of water straight into Gremlin. As she falls back to the ground, soaking wet, and the massive wave recedes, she notices with satisfaction that Gremlin has finally fallen on its side, unmoving.

Notes
  • I assume you meant for attacks requiring a lot of water to be usable in this arena, so I'm basically picturing the arena as the area around the Power Plant.
  • Wargle sends out, then Ether's Bane commands first.
 
Milk Drink, then two Shadow Balls, but if Kazza can't be hit because of Protect or something else, Chill.

Hmm. No, that won't work. We can't let that milk drink happen.

Taunt to stop it. Then hurt it.

Status: ...

------------------------------​

Kazza doesn't waste a moment after popping out of his Poké Ball to begin telepathically regaling Cyrix with his finest insults without even opening his eyes. His voice in her head goes on and on about what a mi-steak she's making daring to challenge him, he's going to cream her before she can even moove, though he herd from his teammates that she's too much of a coward to do anything but hide... attack him, he dairies her! Infuriated beyond belief, Cyrix abandons all attempts to harvest her own delicious milk and instead throws herself at her opponent with full force, no thought in her mind but pummeling every inch of the Abra that she possibly can with her hooves. After a moment Kazza manages to teleport himself a couple of feet away, but Cyrix doesn't even notice and continues just slamming herself against the ground until her hooves are sore.

And then, suddenly, the ground is so very far away. Cyrix finds herself hoisted up into the air by invisible strings of psychic energy that hold her in place so it's difficult for her to move. Undeterred, she continues her assault by twisting herself to face Kazza and forming a large ball of ghostly energy between her two front hooves. When it grows large enough the orb flies forward of its own accord, whizzing to and fro until it reaches its target and bowls the Abra head over heels through the grass.

Kazza telekinetically pushes himself back up, and telekinetically zips through the air to stop in front of Cyrix, and telekinetically pulls his arm back as his fist starts to glow, and then telekinetically launches his fist forward with dizzying force and speed straight into Cyrix's face. A bit over-reliant on psychic powers, that one. The punch sends Cyrix reeling as much as she possibly can while suspended in the air by more of Kazza's psychic trickery. The world spins in front of her, and she jerks her head around frantically, not sure which of the blurs in her line of sight is her opponent and which might be a stray pile of rock, or a funny-shaped cloud, or even the radio tower itself. It's all very disturbing to poor Cyrix, and she can't bring herself to do anything but struggle pointlessly to get out of her invisible bonds.

Notes
  • Cyrix was too confused to attack on the third action. Since she was suspended in the air and all, she wasn't able to actually hurt herself in her confusion, but her failure chance didn't go down either.
  • Cyrix's Taunt wore off after the third action.
  • Wargle commands first.
