1vs1 single
Style: Set
DQ: Standard week
Damage cap: 60%
Banned moves: OHKO's; each Pokemon limited to one direct-healing move
Arena: Witches' Province
A magical corner of the world, inhabited primarily by witches and warlocks. The arena itself is in the center of a typical forest, with your standard-issue witch's cottage just on the arena's outskirts. Puffs of multicolored smoke have a habit of escaping the cottage's chimney, and can cause hallucinogenic effects on Pokemon that inhale them (which will be primarily or solely Flyers, since the smoke isn't heavier than air). This causes them to be moderately Confused but have random stat boosts to any combination of Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, Speed, and Accuracy which are cumulatively equal to +6.
The arena itself, being so infused by magic, has some odd effects on Pokemon battling within it. At the end of each round, one of the following effects will occur:
18% chance that one Pokemon will receive a +2 boost to one stat (either Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, Speed, and Accuracy) (3% each stat)
18% chance that one Pokemon will receive a -2 penalty to one stat (3% each stat)
12% chance that both Pokemon will receive a +1 boost to one stat (2% each stat)
12% chance that both Pokemon will receive a -1 penalty to one stat (2% each stat)
5% chance that one Pokemon will be given the effects of Magic Coat
5% chance that one Pokemon will receive Magic Guard in addition to its normal ability (this lasts for one round)
5% chance that Magic Room will go into effect (this is a Trick Room-like Gen V effect that removes all effects of items)
5% chance that one Pokemon will receive Magic Mirror in addition to its normal ability (all stat-lowering moves are reflected back to the user) (this lasts for one round)
5% chance that both Pokemon will recover 40% Health
5% chance that both Pokemon will recover 40% Energy
10% chance that nothing will happen

Round 12 Begin!
Getting up from her resting position almost painfully, Norway looks as though she's somewhat unsure on her feet; then she suddenly regains her bearings, and begins running towards Gohma. She opens her mouth wide, and her fangs lengthen and glow incredibly brightly as she forces a massive amount of energy into them. She reaches her opponent and bites down hard, the energy discharging into her body and triggering just about every pain receptor in her nervous system. She twitches and shivers from her foetal position (into which she instinctively curled), then reluctantly unfurls herself, and spits a large glob of purple goo onto the back of the retreating Norway, who flinches. The substance soaks through her skin almost immediately, the foul poisons entering her bloodstream. By this time, the vines on Norway's back have once again begun belching out energy, though the foul venom kills off a significant portion of them.
Turning around, Norway gives Gohma a death-glare before launching into an extremely fast run, white energy streaking behind her; Gohma, stunned by the sudden burst of speed, is unable to do anything but stare helplessly until the Rattata collides with her in a massive impact, throwing both of them backwards a considerable distance. Gohma lands on her feet and quickly retaliates, launching a volley of sharp-edged leaves at the dazed Rattata, which slice into her skin.
Norway, finally picking herself up and shaking away her dizziness, launches into another run; Gohma has learned her lesson the first time, though, and sidesteps slightly at the last second. The massive inertia of the tiny rat prevents her from changing her course, and so she sails onwards, quickly stopping the attack before she can crash into a tree. As she does, she is treated to a volley of leaves in the back, launched once again by Gohma.
Suddenly, a large, odd machine bursts out of the ground. It appears to have a large bowl inside it, which it quickly fills with a brown fluid, then ejects it; another bowl pops up, and the process repeats once more. Each Pokémon takes a bowl and begins tenatively drinking the fluid - it tastes almost, but not entirely, unlike tea, and is strangely refreshing - while the trainers and referee come up for undrinkable cups of their own.
"Share and enjoy," says the machine before sinking back into the ground.

Notes
- That's been there forever, it doesn't count. And it means a me-shaped hole, not a planet-shaped (aka "round") hole.
- I said Leech Seed
wouldn't be gone. Remember that Magic Guard stopped it for that round.
- That's the third time, I think, that a 100-accuracy move missed. Have you angered the RNGgods, Kratos?
- Okay, I trust you can find
that one. If you can't, I will seriously doubt that you have ever read the books.
Arena Notes
- This round, both Pokémon regained 40% health. Seriously.
- There is a tree with a Squornshellous-Beta-shaped hole in the side growing just outside the limits of the battlefield.
- Many of the trees at the outskirts of the field have various marks carved into them by Norway's teeth.
Next Round
- Kratos Aurion Attacks
- Pumpkinhead Attacks
