Queen Anne feels slow and ponderous. She huffs, considering the benefits of stockpiling some energy for future use … and then she notices Akra waving her behind, jeering that surely she’s too fat to get so much as a belch accomplished. With an angry snort, Queen Anne bristles, orders forgotten. She has to hit that no-good beaver! But how? Who cares? Her forelegs wave around, smacking Akra in hopes of making her feel some pain, any pain, in response to her bruised ego. She ends up hitting herself a couple times, but it’s so worth it.
Akra locks her fingers together. It’s so nice when she can piss people off, she thinks. She doesn’t get to do it that often. Still, she’d better prepare herself for Queen Anne’s next attack. With greater ease than previously, she puts together another construct made of random junk lying around. This one is shaped like a Bibarel, though, and it stares blankly ahead once she’s finished. Its stare doesn’t change when Queen Anne steps in for another round of beating, though it’s pretty average as far as beatings go, even as it steps in to absorb the blows. When it’s over, the Sub looks like it’s starting to come apart, but it’ll hold a while longer.
Time for a sick burn. Akra puffs out her chest until it can go no further, then spews out a column of boiling water. Steam rises in a burst as the water strikes Queen Anne, who roars in pain at the searing heat. Dripping wet and furious, the Hippowdon racks her brain to figure out what to do. Swallow? Who has time for that? Fairly sure it’s not the right circumstance for those other commands, she’ll just slam on that beaver again and hope it makes a mark. She flails her forelegs, occasionally connecting with the Substitute, who soon collapses into a pile of inert junk. When she’s done, Queen Anne is left breathing heavily, calming down enough for rational thought to return. A glint catches her eye, and she thuds over to unearth a shining evolution stone, which she noses over to a pleased Sangfroidish.
At that moment, evolution strikes once more. Queen Anne’s bulk shrinks down to a fun-sized elephant, and she waves a blue-and-orange trunk around, clearly enjoying the new appendage. Akra swells up into a towering, ominous genie thing, and she folds her arms, trying on her intimidating new look for size.

- An Eviolite is lying in a pile of discarded stones.
- A Moon Stone is resting next to some old equipment.
Calculations:
- Queen Anne’s health: 45% - 2% (Struggle) - 16% (Scald) - 2% (Struggle) = 25%
- Queen Anne’s energy: 71% - 3% (Struggle) - 3% (Revenge) - 3% (Struggle) = 62%
- Akra’s health: 72% - 4% (Struggle) - 10% (Substitute) = 58%
- Akra’s energy: 78% - 4% (Taunt) - 5% (Substitute) - 4% (Scald) = 65%
- Akra’s Substitute: 10% - 7% (Revenge) - 4% (Struggle) = 0%
Other Notes:
- Akra outspeeds Queen Anne (65 > 40).
- Because she was Taunted and had no damaging option on the first action, Queen Anne used Struggle.
- Likewise, on the third action, none of the conditions necessary for each command happened, so Queen Anne Struggled again.
- Queen Anne found an evolution stone on the third action.
- This round, Queen Anne evolved into a Phanpy, and Akra evolved into a Dusknoir.
- Evolution stone bonus totals: $2 for Sangfroidish, $1 for pathos.
