Round 1
In a spring long ago, a group of three … ah, but at the time, there were four; two trainers, their referee, and a friendly friend, they sought out this divine queen, to whom the only rational words was "BEES"—they planned to come here to battle. Not the queen itself, but each other,
inside that queen. It should have been splendid.
Summer came, and as disaster befell Asber … their battle did not occur.
Autumn came, and their battle did not occur.
Winter came, and spring again, and their battle did not occur.
… and then one day, a winter day, they returned, three of them, to this place. Times had changed. They had changed. The world around, even, had changed. But their desire for that battle—it had not waned.
Swiftly, the trainers made their choices—the magnificently adorable metal dragon, a cubone and a skrelp; the other a riolu and a meditite—and gave their instructions; the referee motioned for the round to begin, at last.
The first to move was the meditite, guardian of a park now long turned into a housing complex, sliding over to the cubone to deliver … a punch to the face. Of course. And at quite nearly the same moment, the riolu drove into the, er, floor, so to speak, of the hive, causing the entire hive to shudder for a moment.
The cubone, Loa, shaken by those two almost simultaneous hits, nevertheless found an opportunity to secrete a particularly metallic film about her body to fortify her defenses. The meditite, floating in the air, was unaffected except by a small glob of honey landing on his lap.
The skrelp, meanwhile, carefully swimming near the surface of the honey, felt the tremor deeply—if a bit dampened by the honey—and, once it had passed, unsteadily fired a blob of toxic sludge (albeit mixed somewhat with honey) at, hit in the back, and mildly annoyed the meditite, in roughly that order.
Not exactly a paragon of reasonable retribution, the Guardian at that point punched Loa in the face again. (Well, he’d been ordered to do that anyway.) As he punched this time, some measure of the … life energy … sort of, which the punch had removed from the cubone gathered around his fist, and he licked it off as the riolu set off another almost-but-not-quite earthquake.
The cubone was not exactly intending to just stand there taking it, and now took advantage of the meditite’s slight distraction to slap away a peculiar shell bell he’d been holding with a burst of dark-charged energy. The skrelp, meanwhile, spit out another glob of toxic goo, this time hitting the Guardian frontally, sharply enough that the meditite accidentally ingested some and suddenly felt … unwell.
As far as he was concerned, the correct reaction to that was also to punch Loa in the face, but this time, as he punched, the vague glow surrounded the cubone and the outward flow of "life" abruptly cut off—ah, but the source of that glow had been the ref’s baton; the agreed damage cap of the battle, then. And the riolu’s next almost-earthquake triggered the same response, though the skrelp was again shaken about.
Loa, now familiar with the intensity of the "earthquakes", nodded at her partner Phyconuke, and left the meditite to charge into the riolu with extreme force, channeling all her rage and pain from, er, partly the earthquakes but honestly mostly from getting punched in the face that many times.
Phyconuke, by implicit agreement, now took one more shot at the meditite, this time not adulterated with toxic gunk be merely … boiling. The water boiling and the caramelising. Scalding, but by some miracle it fell off quickly as the Guardian shook it off and didn’t get burned
too badly.

Notes
- order: meditite (60), riolu (60), cubone (35), skrelp (30)
- on grounds of "inside a padded flying thing", we’ll say sure that can reduce the damage of earthquake but accordingly trying to use the honey as padding will reduce your accuracy
- sludge bomb poisoned on action 2
- 2 am writing is 2 am writing?
- bah not inaugural
- bluzzy commands next, then mimi, then league shuts down and/or reffing happens.
