------------------------------
From within a flash of blinding light steps the Alolan Vulpix Aster, who rustles his flowing locks gracefully and places his paws delicately on the floor. He gets a crystalline twinkle in his eye and whispers an airy little chant to the sky through the gouge in the ceiling. The hot sun clouds over then, and flecks of tiny ice begin to tumble into the arena. Aster's Snow Cloak begins to glitter, blanketing him in a curtain of wispy snow flakes.
Meanwhile, the brave Fletchling Cardinal takes his teammate’s place and chortles with an enraged twitter at his opponent. He flickers into flight and moves in a swift, careening zig zag, leaving a copy of himself at each corner. Six total Fletchlings surround Aster, clacking and cawing at him, but Aster merely flips his luxurious mane and watches as the fresh hail pounds through the five copies, leaving only the true Cardinal. Cardinal’s angry chirps falter a bit.
Aster laughs and hums a pure, diamond-chime note, then a second layer of shimmering light surrounds him, obscuring his outline in snowy sparkles. Furious at his failed cloning attempt, Cardinal huffs and flaps his wings, letting them grow hotter and hotter until he's a blaze of angry feathers. He folds his wings and dive-bombs Aster, but again luck is not in his favor, as all the shimmering snow particles disrupt his vision and cause him to miss.
Suddenly extra snow and ice buffets Cardinal to the ground as Aster calls up a blizzard inside the little dojo. From the ground, the normally-short Vulpix looks like a fox-god of legend, with icy eyes and flowing mane, and then the snow obscures Cardinal's vision again. Enraged, he heats himself up again, lofts two easy leaps into the air, and swoops at Aster, wings ablaze. This time, Cardinal's aim is true; Aster drops the elegant facade as fire crashes against his body, leaving a pulsing burn in its wake.

Arena Status
- There is a long gash in the roof of the dojo. Snow and hail are gathering on the edges of the debris-covered floor.
- Staff are now scrambling to find space heaters for the audience, and are grumbling about how they should have taken the extended insurance on the building.
- It is hailing (6 more actions).
Damage and Energy
- Cardinal's Health: 100% - 20% (Blizzard) - 3% (Hail) = 77%
- Cardinal's Energy: 100% - 5% (Double Team) - 5% (Heat Wave) - 5% (Heat Wave) = 85%
- Aster's Health: 100% - 7% (Heat Wave) - 1% (burn) = 92%
- Aster's Energy: 100% - 4% (Hail) - 1% (Aurora Veil) - 6% (Blizzard) = 89%
Notes
- Speed order: Aster (65) > Cardinal (62).
- Double Team produced 5 clones (the max amount for Cardinal's speed). Unfortunately, the hail fell straight through all of the Double Team clones, ruining the illusion immediately.
- The first Heat Wave missed due to the accuracy reduction from Snow Cloak. The second Heat Wave hit and caused a mild burn.
- I realized recently that a while ago there was a ruling increasing the energy cost for direct healing moves to 0.75x the health recovered, so Konani's Recover so long ago should've cost her an extra 10% energy. It's way too late to correct that, though, so I'll continue reffing them as costing 0.5x the health recovered for this battle.
- @IndigoEmmy commands first.
