Totodile vs Noctowl

[Totodile]

Let's stall, Hunahpu. Protect from the Brines, and between those trip him up with a Thunder Wave. If he doesn't paralyzefail on the third action, use Protect, but if he does, use Freeze-Dry.

With Sonichu removed from the field, Noctowl hurled a Pokéball into the arena to send out his replacement, a small, timid Oshawott bursting onto the scene. He looked about the place, noting the ominous state of disrepair the entire room was in, and especially the strange energy in the air whose nature he was unable to ascertain. More than anything, though, he noted the huge dinosaur towering above him. Instantly he yelped in fear and shielded himself with his arms before noticing the wounds and grazes littering the enormous creature's body. Rubbing his paws with glee, he pursed his lips and let out a burst of water, sticking his tongue out in disgust at its taste as it left his mouth and sprayed towards Hunahpu. The salty water splashed all over him, and would have seeped painfully into his wounds if not for the protective barrier surrounding his entire body.

Robbie screwed his face up in annoyance. Now he had a nasty taste in his mouth, and all for nothing! He was so mad he just felt like screaming. His jaw unhinged and let out a piercing shriek of anguish, emitting pulses of water along with them that splashed against Hunahpu while the scream generated a deafening ringing in his ears. He thrashed his head to and fro, the pain in his ears building until it grew unbearable, and with a bellow of agony he lumbered forward and toppled over, crashing painfully to the ground.

Laying prone on the cracked, dusty ground, Hunahpu barely retained the strength to move. He merely lay on the spot, erecting another sheet of energy around himself just to let him hang on that little bit longer. Oblivious to this, Robbie puffed out his chest and grinned. He was down! Now for one last blow to finish him. Breathing in deep, he sprayed out another jet of saline water, the brackish flavour counteracted by the sweet taste of impending victory. Instead, though, the water merely skipped over Hunahpu's shield and splattered harmlessly onto the floor behind him, much to Robbie's disdain.

His rage was soon overcome by utter confusion, though, as his body suddenly became immaterial, shifting into a new, completely different form. He looked to Hunahpu and saw the same happening to him, though he seemed rather less alarmed by it; whether because he was familiar with this bizarre circumstance or simply too weak to care, he couldn't say. With that thought, his body suddenly solidified again, considerably more bivalve than it had been. While he was bust fretting about what the hell was going on here, Hunahpu, now a Gligar, lifted his head and slowly rose into the air, looking down and smiling weakly at the sun stone that had lay beneath him. He scooped it up into a claw and gingerly tossed it to his trainer, while Noctowl looked on jealously.

Hunahpu lay face down on the tile and mewled feebly. His head ached; his body ached; he was essentially just a big ball of ache by this point. All he wanted was to be rid of this torture. Slowly he pulled himself up, hoping that maybe if he got off one last attack maybe he'd collapse from exhaustion. With a barely audible hiss he pushed off the ground, leaping majestically into the air before immediately crashing back down head-first with a painful-sounding clunk.

Silence fell around the arena for a long moment before the limp Gligar let off a bright flash, reverting into a decidedly unconscious Nincada. Totodile recalled the defeated bug into his Pokéball, the red flash sparkling off of a Water Stone laying directly beneath Robbie, which Noctowl quickly ran up and snatched before anyone else noticed it. As she strode back to her place with her prize in hand, Robbie began evolving a second time, this time transforming into a Sudowoodo. He was either too overjoyed to notice his new form or didn't care to get into character, as rather than standing immobile on the spot as a Sudowoodo should, he began waving his branches and whooping with joy at his (technical) victory.

With her trusty bug safely tucked back in his Pokéball, Totodile introduced her second battler to the arena, summoning forth Wrath the Deino in yet another burst of red light. She was the first not to be put off by the arena's creepiness, the shaggy fur over her eyes keeping her blissfully unaware of it, and she immediately focused her attentions into the battle. Her fur began to crackle and stand on end, threads of electricity arcing through her mane, as she ducked her head and launched a thin beam of static charge from the tip of her horn. It struck Robbie and rapidly dissipated through his body, eliciting a grunt of discomfort as his his joints grew stiff and unresponsive.

Robbie struggled against his impairment, finding building enough momentum in his limbs to gainfully attack almost impossible. Instead he embraced his new form and stood motionless, muttering the words to some blasphemous incantation under his breath. As if from nowhere, clouds of sinister energy slid across the ground like a thin mist and clung to Robbie's skin. He welcomed their embrace, accepting the eldritch power they conferred upon him and grimacing as they rid him of a chunk of his vitality in exchange before vanishing into the ether. He felt much stronger and more resilient, though at the same time considerably worn out and sluggish.

With stat-boosting clearly being the order of the day, Wrath took a deep breath and began to stretch, chanting encouragement under her breath to psych herself up while she pumped up her muscles with her workout routine. Robbie sneered; he couldn't deny that Wrath looked stronger and more focused now, but she looked just as able to take a hit! Readying one of his branches, he rushed at Wrath with his now-lethargic gait and put his newfound power into a deft smack on his foe's bonce. Wrath yowled and rubbed her aching skull, the already wall-shattering blow lent even more force by the paranormal strength hosted within him.

The temptation for Wrath to finally get around to pummelling Robbie's face into an unrecognisable pulp was almost insurmountable. With great temperance, she quelled the urge for another round, funnelling her blood lust into bulking herself up to facilitate such retribution later. She fixed her gaze on Robbie and focused intensely, sharpening her observation and scrutinising and noting the location of the Sudowoodo's weak points. This was all made easier by his utter stillness, this time not a product of any attempt to act Sudowoodoly, but rather of his limbs completely locking up from paralysis.

Wrath's concentration was broken only as she was bathed in mysterious white light, looking down and noting, as all who had come before her had, that her body was rapidly shifting to a completely new shape. She let out a bewildered howl as her form suddenly stabilised; she felt much bigger and heavier than before, and what were these weird blue appendages? Just what the hell was going on?! She looked to Robbie for answers, but was only even more nonplussed to see the Sudowoodo had become a huge blue amphibian with its tongue lolling around its throat.

Okay, we're at a bit of a disadvantage here, but that's okay. Use Signal Beam a few times. If he Protects, or if you can't hit him because of Dig, use Iron Defense instead. If he uses Attract or Captivate, turn on the charm yourself.

Despite the arthritic stiffness in his joints, Robbie's newly-acquired ninjaly litheness allowed him to remain manifold faster than his clunky new target. While Wrath was still getting used to her new form and trying to poise her unwieldy mass to formulate an attack, Robbie had long since somersaulted into a pile of wreckage and begun sorting through it for parts, clearly every bit as much the sculptor as his predecessor. Hurling any choice materials he happened upon into a roughly Greninja-sized pile, he hopped up beside it and touched a webbed foreleg against it, bringing it to life with a jolt of his own vitality.

Once the assortment of masonry and machine parts had vaguely reassembled itself into the closest facsimile of its creator it could produce, Wrath had just about gotten the hang of her new form (though she still retained a rather tenuous grasp on how or why exactly she had come by said form) and gotten herself ready to formulate an attack. So slow was her response, she seemed utterly oblivious to the fact that Robbie had done anything at all, completely missing the fact that there were now two Greninja-shaped entities before her and turning her attentions to the first she saw. Sparing no second thought for its decidedly mineral appearance, she began flashing red and blue light from the pink discs on her front, undulating beams of each colour spiralling out of them and striking the substitute, decimating it in a single strike and leaving only its very basic structure intact.

Robbie inspected the damage to his copy with a grimace; even a gentle touch could bring it crumbling back into dust. Rage flared up inside him. With a furious croak and an intricate twirl, he appeared to sink into his own shadow, the shade snaking across the ground almost imperceptibly. Wrath looked around with a panicked grunt, searching for her foe who seemed to have vanished into the thin air, but Robbie wouldn't be seen until he wanted to be. That moment came when his shadow slid behind Wrath's back, whereupon he sprang out from it and dealt a vicious sucker punch in retribution for his target's vandalism. The Bronzong groaned in pain as she crashed to the ground, knocking a concealed Dusk Stone free from behind a rock, sending it rolling across the floor to come to a halt at Noctowl's feet.

Meanwhile, Wrath rolled awkwardly on the floor in a flustered attempt to right herself. She was too slow, and the attack too quick, for her to even process what had happened. One moment she was merrily floating away making a radical lightshow, the next she was getting smacked head-first into the tile! Nothing in this battle was making sense, and she bet her right appendage the blame all lay at Robbie's webbed feet. She charged up another trippy duo of light beams, hurling them at Robbie as he pounced back to his starting place, but before they could strike his ragged husk of a Substitute intervened. The exertion it expended merely throwing itself before its master very nearly tore it apart, but it held its form just barely long enough to take the attack and crumble to smithereens while Robbie hopped away to safety.

A webbed fist thudded against the tile, accompanied by a froggy snarl. That did it. Robbie crouched low against the ground, his body once again sinking down into his shadow and scuttling away across the floor. Wrath expected it this time, and tried her best to prepare, but Robbie was simply too quick for her and too hard to spot. Before she could even brace herself he sprang up behind her and dealt a vicious blow in revenge for his ruined substitute. He vaulted off Wrath's head and sprang back to his spot, finally recieving the business end of one of her Signal Beams in mid-air as he made his getaway.

Just as his feet hit the floor, another vortex of evolution energy wrapped itself around the battlers. Once it faded, Robbie opened his eyes and looked down at himself, two red pincers betraying his new form as that of a Krabby. With an awkward scuttling three-point turn, he oriented himself to check out what he was up against this time, uttering a rather gratuitous oath at the sight of the enormous, crackling thunderbird leering down at him...

Terrified of the beast now facing him, Robbie began to frantically scuffle his claws against the ground in a desperate effort to run and hide before it utterly demolished him with its arcane god-bird powers. Smashing through the hard layer of tiles, his claws found the soft, malleable ground beneath, which they began to scoop out as quickly as they could. Wrath wasn't planning on letting him get away that easily, though. She let him have his moment of ill-fated relief, allowing him to slip almost out of sight before letting off a jolt of electricity with an effortless flap of her wing. It arced into Robbie's leg just as it slipped into the safety of his burrow, spreading rapidly throughout his body and painfully locking up his joints. Not again, the Krabby grunted to himself as he miserably curled up in his hidey-hole.

With her opponent incapacitated and out of range, Wrath took the liberty of giving herself a little downtime. Perching on a pipe that was thick enough and not too decrepit to bear her enormous size, she folded her wings and took it easy, recovering a little of her lost stamina in the process. Robbie was similarly inactive, though not quite as much by his own volition; painful soreness had locked up every joint in his body, making his intended actions impossible. His trainer, meanwhile, was too busy inspecting the mound of dirt he'd kicked up to feel to sorry for his plight; a Leaf Stone he'd unearthed from beneath the tile was glittering away under a thin layer of soil. Happily she ran up and plucked it away before rushing back to safety, slipping the treasure into her bag.

Enough resting, Wrath seemed to think as the action drew to a close. Spreading her wings, she soared into the air and swooped around the warehouse in a wide circle, and then another, and another, building speed the whole time. Finally she dive-bombed back to her perch and touched down on it, stretching her wings keenly and feeling a lot more limber.

The same could be said of Robbie, if only compared to his earlier stiffness. The soreness had deadened to the point where he could actually move, and he set about getting a successful attack in before his muscles betrayed him again. He scraped away at the walls of his little den, widening it and giving himself some more room before starting to scuttle rhythmically about the little space, snapping his pincers and honing them against each other as he awakened the warrior's spirit inside him.

With that, the Pokémon transformed yet again, the aura around Wrath vanishing and leaving his legless Metang body to tumble clumsily off the pipe. Robbie, though pleased to have finally changed out of his own type, found his burrow suddenly much more claustrophobic than before. He was rather glad he'd made the tunnel wider than he needed it...

Hoisting her body off the ground and righting it, Wrath shook off the dizziness of her less than graceful landing. Once she had her bearings, she began pounding her arms against the ground with all her might, to the point where the floor itself shook violently with each impact, sending potent vibrations up the walls and knocking tiles and chunks of brickwork loose from the ceiling. Unperturbed by the masonry showering down on top of her, she kept shaking the room with her hammering fists, so hard that even several feet under the ground Robbie was jostled around and thrown from wall to wall of the burrow. Soon cracks began to spread through the floor, wider and wider until the roof of Robbie's den caved in and collapsed, crushing him beneath several feet of tiles, bricks and earth.

For some time the mound of earth covering Robbie lay worryingly still. After a minute or so, though, the soil began to shift as though something beneath it were struggling its way to the surface. Finally, a blobby little arm thrust out of the ground, scrabbling for something to grab onto and haul itself up with. Shortly Robbie's head breached the soil after it, gasping for a lungful of breath as he climbed out of his shallow grave and crawled miserably onto solid ground.

Wrath wasn't finished with him yet, though. Closing her eyes, she focused her mental energy into forming a psychic connection to his brain, transmitting mental impulses from her mind to his. He let out a yelp of pain as his body began to twist and contort in unnatural ways, his synapses utterly at Wrath's mercy. Gleefully she overwhelmed him with all the pain responses she could conjure, an agony like he had never known coursing through his body before she finally let him free, leaving him a twitching, miserable wreck. Robbie lay prone on the floor, wincing and crying out with pain as a pale blue aura surrounded him, his innate water-type powers coming to his aid in his time of need.

The intensity of the tortured wails filling the arena took Wrath somewhat by surprise. Perhaps it was from all the mental preparation she did earlier, but it seemed like she'd roughed him up rather more than she realised. She thought perhaps she should check the poor guy was alright. As she hovered reluctantly towards the quivering Swalot, a wreath of flames burst out around his fist, and before she could veer away he lunged forward and clocked her fiercely under the chin. She vaulted away with a screech, her chassis glowing red with heat at the point of impact before slowly cooling.

Wrath fumed. That complete rotter! Okay, so maybe screwing with his brain was a little out of order. She took full responsibility for that little faux pas. But to punch someone who was just checking if you're okay was a level of brutishness she just wouldn't stand for. Perhaps another dose of pain administered directly to his central nervous system would teach him some manners! Once again, she tapped directly into his very consciousness, loading all the pain into him she could muster, but the sheer residual adrenalin of Robbie's last mindfuck allowed him to utterly disregard the agony coursing through him as he staggered towards his aggressor. She tried her hardest to throw him off course, making him jerk and convulse this way and that, but his resolve was unstoppable, another fist wrapped in flames hammering into her face soon putting an end to her psychic intrusion.

With that, the light of evolution descended on the arena once more, morphing the Pokémon into another pair of brand-new specimens. This time, Wrath became a rather shady-looking baby crocodile, while Robbie assumed the form of a baby plant-turtle, rather contrasting his new improved water affinity.
