------------------------------​

Water break. For the umpteenth time this battle, Lancelot slices through the air, leaving an imprint of psychic energy in his blade's trail. He exhales, and the energy blows up into a little bubble around him to shield him from incoming attacks. What stunning forethought and strategy! Lancelot's tactical genius is commendable. So unlike that maiden's over there.

And then, the real battle resumes.

Clang. Nosada gets in the first strike, forcing herself through Lancelot's protective veil to land a vengeful blow to his hilt and sash. Cloth. It's a manly cloth. Lancelot responds with a clever, completely unnecessary feint, jabbing to her right and then her left and then her right and then her left and then her right and now he's bored so he just smashes his blade into hers. The passengers begin looking at them in annoyance, muttering under their breath about those ridiculous swords with only one eye and their twin shields.

Clink. Nosada performs a completely predictable swerving maneuver that doesn't fool Lancelot one bit. The surge of ghostly energy that she slams into his blade still kind of hurts, though. The only reason he couldn't avoid it is because, as any experienced swordsmon knows, such a thing is not possible in such close quarters. If you are thinking otherwise, Lancelot looks upon you in disapproval. Lancelot is well-trained in the old swordly arts, a true master, and don't you forget it.

Klinklang. Ha! Lancelot the narrator made a funny joke! Ah, he's such a clever, likeable Honedge. Both blades clash yet again, each Pokémon struggling to overwhelm the other with its own rush of caustic energy, but they're forcibly broken apart as the passengers descend upon them in an angry stampade, shoving the trainers out and into the neighbouring orange carriage. Nosada doesn't even manage to bring her Reflect shield with her. What an amateur.

Used: Reflect ~ Shadow Claw ~ Shadow Claw

Arena Status
  • The battlers are now in the orange carriage. Each Pokémon takes 5% typeless damage per round. For each Pokémon, on each action, there is a 15% chance that said Pokémon won't be able to carry out its action because it's busy babysitting or something.
  • A Reflect covers Lancelot's side of the field (2 more actions).

Damage and Energy

  • Nosada's Health: 42% - 7% (Shadow Claw) - 7% (Shadow Claw) = 28%
  • Nosada's Energy: 52% - 1% (Reflect) - 4% Shadow Claw) - 1% (Reflect) - 4% (Shadow Claw) - 1% (Reflect) - 4% (Shadow Claw) = 37%
  • Lancelot's Health: 42% - 6% (Shadow Claw) - 6% (Shadow Claw) - 6% (Shadow Claw) = 34%
  • Lancelot's Energy: 58% - 1% (Reflect) - 1% (Reflect) - 4% (Shadow Claw) - 1% (Reflect) - 4% (Shadow Claw) - 1% (Reflect) = 46%

Notes
  • Nosada's Reflect wore off after the third action.
  • The battlers' total this round was 33.75 (which I rounded up) + 47 (randomly generated), but PRAISE THE LORD the removal total this round was 85 so they've finally gotten the hell out of here. They're now in the orange car.
  • I'm assuming the arena damage contributes to the cap. Should it be applied at the end of the round or over the course of the round, something like 2%/1%/2%?
  • JackPK commands first.
 
Start with two more Shadow Claws (sorry, Eifie).

Then on the last action, if Nosada has a Reflect up, wait for her to act and then use Power Trick. If she doesn't have a Reflect up, use Shadow Claw.

If at any point Nosada is protecting or somehow otherwise unhittable, use Swords Dance.

Shadow Claw/Swords Dance x2 ~ wait and Power Trick/Shadow Claw/Swords Dance
 
Okay this is going to get conditional.

I'm pretty sure we can just Destiny Bond on action one for the KO. So let's have you two fall in each other's arms (blades?). But since we're on the babby carriage. If he's baby-blocked on the first action I guess we can Reflect then follow through with a Shadow Claw and then wait and Shadow Claw to end it. But if your Destiny Bond failed on the first action then Shadow Sneak on the second. And if you're still alive after the Shadow Sneak, then Reflect.

If his first action was fine, but his second action baby-failed, throw up the Reflect on the second action and then wait and Shadow Claw.

If his first action baby-failed and you got a Reflect up, and then his second action baby-failed, do two Shadow Claws but delay the last one. Hopefully we can wait long enough that a baby distracts one of us.

If you're on the final action, don't have a Reflect, have been hit by one Shadow Claw, and he is waiting for you to move, then Destiny Bond.

Destiny Bond/Reflect/Shadow Claw ~ Reflect/Shadow Claw/Shadow Sneak ~ wait then Shadow Claw/wait then Destiny Bond

Also yeah you can split the damage across the round whichever way you want.

------------------------------​

In a stunning twist of fate that leaves everybody how shocked, Lancelot surrounds himself in shadowy energy yet again and smacks Nosada straight across the hilt. Actually stabbing with his blade is so five seconds ago, man. Strangely, Nosada doesn't seem to react. She fixes her one eye upon Lancelot eerily as a faint, dark glow shimmers around her, and simply watches. The ominous scene is broken up somewhat as a couple of children trample between them, knocking both Honedge over for a second.

As soon as Lancelot gets up again, he lunges in for the kill. Get this: he uses SHADOW CLAW. It's super effective! So effective, in fact, that Nosada's one eye closes and she slumps to the ground, and Lancelot sighs in relief... but it's not over yet. That aura of ghostly energy hasn't faded, and suddenly it opens up into a dark pool in the ground. An eerie apparition of a hand appears out of it to engulf Lancelot in dark energy, and it drags him, struggling and screaming for his life, down into the void.

The children are a bit disturbed by this tragic loss of Honedge life, so the very responsible babysitting who allowed the battle to happen in this carriage in the first place unceremoniously kicks the trainers out. The neighbouring blue car is still angry at them, probably, and won't put up with more battling shenanigans, but they're determined to finish this fight, so they climb up onto the fucking ROOF. YEAH MAN.

I'LL SEND OUT FROG BECAUSE HE HAS STICKY FEET AND STUFF AND CAN SURVIVE THE DREADED ROOF AAAAAAAH

croagunk
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

ALRIGHT BUDDY WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A CROAKING GOOD TIME. OPEN WITH A LOW SWEEP TO CUT THAT SUCKA DOWN. COWABUNGA AND ALL THAT. I GUESS WE'LL FOLLOW THAT WITH A POISON JAB? YEAH. IF SHE'S PROTECTING I GUESS WE CAN DO A BULK UP.

IF YOU'VE BEEN SOMEHOW ATTRACTED TO THAT CLEARLY INFERIOR FROGTHING, I SUGGEST YOU BUFF YOURSELF UP, LOOK NICE AND STRONG FOR THAT THERE FEMALE. MAKE YOUR MUSCLES OOZE POWER, REALLY FLEX AND SHOW OFF THAT STRENGTH OF YOURS. THEN TRY AND CAPTIVATE HER WITH YOUR MUSCULAR MOVES, REALLY STRETCH THEM LEGS AND SHOW OFF THAT FINE POWER.

IF SHE'S TAUNTED YOU BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T WANT TO LISTEN TO YOU AFTER YOU GOT ALL GUSSIED UP, WELL THAT'S JUST MEAN AND YOU SHOULDN'T TAKE THAT FROM SOMEONE LIKE HER. YOU GOT ALL BUFFED JUST FOR HER AND NOW SHE WON'T LISTEN TO YOU? VENT YOUR FRUSTRATION, FROG. VENT IT.

LOW SWEEP/BULK UP ~ POISON JAB/CAPTIVATE/FRUSTRATION

DAMNIT I WISH YOU HAD MASAMUNE, FROG.
 
HERE WE GO SHEENA THIS ROOF IS GONNA SUUUUCK TO BATTLE ON BUT YOU GOT THIS

WAIT UNTIL HE'S COMING AT YOU WITH HIS LOW SWEEP, THEN JUMP OVER HIM WITH SOME FANCY ACROBATICS TO HOPEFULLY AVOID HIS ATTACK AND LAND WITH AN AWESOME OFFENSIVE. ALTERNATIVELY, IF YOU THINK DOING THAT WOULD PUT YOURSELF AT TOO MUCH RISK OF FALLING OFF THE TRAIN, SCALD HIM AND TAKE THE LOW SWEEP.

ON THE SECOND ACTION, GO ALL-OUT WITH A HYDRO PUMP BECAUSE IT'S ALRIGHT IF WE USE UP A SHIT TON OF ENERGY AS LONG AS WE GET OFF THE ROOF FASTER!

------------------------------​

THE TRAINERS BOTH SEND OUT THEIR FROGS AT ONCE ONTO THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF. BOTH POKÉMON LOOK AROUND IN CONFUSION AND FRIGHT BECAUSE WHAT ARE THEY DOING ON THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF. THIS WAS SO NOT IN THE CONTRACT. THE TRAIN ZOOMS ALONG, AND BOTH BATTLERS SHIVER IN THE COLD BREEZE BLOWING OVER THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF.

FROG #1, ALSO KNOWN AS SHEENA, DECIDES TO HEAT THINGS UP ON THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF. PUFFING UP HER CHEEKS, SHE HEATS UP A BUNCH OF WATER FROM HER INTERNAL RESERVOIR UNTIL STEAM BEGINS TO ESCAPE FROM HER NOSTRILS, AND THEN SPITS IT ALL FORTH IN A TORRENT OF SCALDING LIQUID. THE HISSING WATER STRIKES FROG #2 (THE ORIGINAL FROG) ON THE SIDE OF HIS FOREHEAD, AND HE RECOILS WITH A CRY FROM THE BLISTERING HEAT. WITH A FEW QUICK STEPS FORWARD TO GAIN MOMENTUM, HE DROPS AND SLIDES BASEBALL-STYLE TOWARD HIS OPPONENT ACROSS THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF. FROG #2 SLAMS FEET-FIRST INTO FROG #1'S OWN FEET, AND KNOCKS HER LEGS OUT FROM UNDER HER. FROG #1 IS NOT PLEASED. SHE CLIMBS TO HER FEET SLOWLY, ONE BACK LEG A LITTLE UNSTEADY, AND STARES FROG #2 DOWN.

WOW, FROG #1 IS REALLY NOT PLEASED. FROG #2 WINCES AND COVERS HIS FACE WITH HIS FROGGY HANDS AS HE SEES HER FROGGY CHEEKS PUFF UP AGAIN. THIS TIME, THE JET OF WATER SHE RELEASES ISN'T HEATED TO BOILING, BUT IT'S A HELL OF A LOT OF WATER TO BE UNLEASHING ON THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF. IT THROWS FROG #2 BACKWARD RIGHT INTO HIS TRAINER'S LEGS, AND TRUETOCHEESE GRABS AT HIM MADLY TO STOP HIM FROM FALLING OFF THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF. OR MAYBE HE'S JUST ANGRY AT HIM BECAUSE NOW HIS PANTS ARE SOAKED. THE SURFACE OF THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF IS SLICK WITH WATER, LIQUID CASCADING OFF THE SIDES OF THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF, BUT FROG #2 IS SKILLED IN NAVIGATING SUCH ENVIRONMENTS. HE IS, AFTER ALL, THE ORIGINAL FROG. SO IT'S WITHOUT TOO MUCH DIFFICULTY THAT HE SCURRIES BACK ACROSS TO SECRETE POISON FROM HIS KNUCKLES AND THEN PUNCH SHEENA IN THE FACE ON THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOF. FROG #1 TUMBLES BACKWARD WITH A STARTLED CROAK, AND FROG #2 WATCHES WITH A SATISFIED SMILE AS THE TOXINS START TO OOZE INTO HER SKIN.

The trainers both send out their frogs at once onto the motherfucking ROOF. Both Pokémon look around in confusion and fright because what are they doing on the motherfucking ROOF. This was so not in the contract. The train zooms along, and both battlers shiver in the cold breeze blowing over the motherfucking ROOF.

Frog #1, also known as Sheena, decides to heat things up on the motherfucking ROOF. Puffing up her cheeks, she heats up a bunch of water from her internal reservoir until steam begins to escape from her nostrils, and then spits it all forth in a torrent of scalding liquid. The hissing water strikes Frog #2 (The Original Frog) on the side of his forehead, and he recoils with a cry from the blistering heat. With a few quick steps forward to gain momentum, he drops and slides baseball-style toward his opponent across the motherfucking ROOF. Frog #2 slams feet-first into Frog #1's own feet, and knocks her legs out from under her. Frog #1 is not pleased. She climbs to her feet slowly, one back leg a little unsteady, and stares Frog #2 down.

Wow, Frog #1 is really not pleased. Frog #2 winces and covers his face with his froggy hands as he sees her froggy cheeks puff up again. This time, the jet of water she releases isn't heated to boiling, but it's a hell of a lot of water to be unleashing on the motherfucking ROOF. It throws Frog #2 backward right into his trainer's legs, and TruetoCheese grabs at him madly to stop him from falling off the motherfucking ROOF. Or maybe he's just angry at him because now his pants are soaked. The surface of the motherfucking ROOF is slick with water, liquid cascading off the sides of the motherfucking ROOF, but Frog #2 is skilled in navigating such environments. He is, after all, The Original Frog. So it's without too much difficulty that he scurries back across to secrete poison from his knuckles and then punch Sheena in the FACE on the motherfucking ROOF. Frog #1 tumbles backward with a startled croak, and Frog #2 watches with a satisfied smile as the toxins start to ooze into her skin.

HERE GOES NOTHING. WAIT AND SEE WHAT HE DECIDES TO DO.

IF HE USES SOMETHING (DAMAGING OR NOT) THAT WILL DEFINITELY LOWER YOUR STATS IF IT HITS, PROTECT AGAINST IT.

ALSO PROTECT IF HE USES VENOSHOCK.

IF HE USES COUNTER, ME FIRST, PAYBACK, REVENGE OR SUCKER PUNCH, USE DOUBLE TEAM.

IN ANY OTHER CONDITIONS, ESPECIALLY IF HE'S PREPARING A SNATCH, USE POWER-UP PUNCH, THEN FACADE.

IF YOU WOULD BE PROTECTING TWICE IN A ROW, INSTEAD USE PROTECT, THEN FACADE.

PROTECT/DOUBLE TEAM/POWER-UP PUNCH ~ PROTECT/DOUBLE TEAM/FACADE

If he uses something (damaging or not) that will definitely lower your stats if it hits, Protect against it.

Also Protect if he uses Venoshock.

If he uses Counter, Me First, Payback, Revenge or Sucker Punch, use Double Team.

In any other conditions, especially if he's preparing a Snatch, use Power-Up Punch, then Facade.

If you would be Protecting twice in a row, instead use Protect, then Facade.

wow Froakie's offensive movepool is pretty great but defensively there's not a boatload of options except Protect
 
P.S. Sheena should have 90% energy by your calcs, but the end-of-round slate lists it as 96%.

Whoops! I always forget to apply one of the energy reductions from the very last action of a round to the actual end-of-round summary, only to discover that when I go to write up the next round. It's fixed now; thanks for pointing it out.
 
ALRIGHT STILL TIRED SO JUST CHOMP DOWN WITH A SUPER FANG THEN ME FIRST SINCE SHE'S WAITING FOR YOU. SUPER FANG IF YOU MISSED THE FIRST TIME.

FROG #1 WATCHES FROG #2 CAUTIOUSLY AND BACKS OFF A LITTLE ACROSS THE FUCKING ROOF, BUT TO NO AVAIL. FROG #2 BARES HIS TEETH WITH A SNARL, CHARGING THEM UP WITH INCREDIBLE AMOUNTS OF ENERGY, AND FOLLOWS FROG #1 ACROSS THE FUCKING ROOF. FROG #1 TREMBLES IN FEAR, KNOWING WHAT'S COMING, AND CRIES OUT PRE-EMPTIVELY AS FROG #2'S WEIRD FANGS TOUCH HER SLIMY SKIN. FROG #2 STARES AT HER, ROLLS HIS EYES, AND BREAKS THE SKIN, THEN CHOMPS DOWN HAPPILY. NOW FROG #1 SCREAMS IN AGONY FOR REAL. SHE DRAWS BACK HER RIGHT FIST AND THEN GIVES FROG #2 A BIT OF A WIMPY PUNCH RIGHT IN THE WHITE CHEST BANDS. YEAH MAN. THAT'LL SHOW HIM... ON THE FUCKING ROOF. FROG #2 DOESN'T SEEM TOO FAZED, BUT AT LEAST HE PULLS AWAY, AND SHEENA'S FIST FEELS A LITTLE STRONGER. THAT WAS TOTALLY THE POINT OF THE WHOLE THING, ANYWAY. OBVIOUSLY.

FROG #2 TAKES A FEW STEPS BACK ON THE FUCKING ROOF AND STARES ACROSS AT FROG #1, ARMS FOLDED ACROSS HIS CHEST. FROG #1 TAKES A FEW STEPS BACK ON THE FUCKING ROOF AND STARES ACROSS AT FROG #2, ARMS FOLDED ACROSS HER CHEST. FROG #2 WATCHES FROG #1, AND WAITS. FROG #1 WATCHES FROG #2, AND WAITS. FROG #2 GIVES IN FIRST. "FINE, LET ME SHOW YOU HOW IT'S DONE," HE GRUMBLES, GLARING ACROSS THE FUCKING ROOF. HE TAKES A STEP FORWARD, ATTEMPTS TO BREAK INTO A RUN AROUND THE FUCKING ROOF, AND SLIPS. FROG #1 COVERS HER MOUTH TO HIDE A GIGGLE. WHOSE BRIGHT IDEA WAS IT TO TRY TO RUN AROUND IN CIRCLES REAL FAST AROUND THE SLIPPERY FUCKING ROOF? CERTAINLY NOT HERS, THAT'S FOR SURE. NOOOOOPE.

Frog #1 watches Frog #2 cautiously and backs off a little across the fucking ROOF, but to no avail. Frog #2 bares his teeth with a snarl, charging them up with incredible amounts of energy, and follows Frog #1 across the fucking ROOF. Frog #1 trembles in fear, knowing what's coming, and cries out pre-emptively as Frog #2's weird fangs touch her slimy skin. Frog #2 stares at her, rolls his eyes, and breaks the skin, then chomps down happily. Now Frog #1 screams in agony for real. She draws back her right fist and then gives Frog #2 a bit of a wimpy punch right in the white chest bands. Yeah man. That'll show him... on the fucking ROOF. Frog #2 doesn't seem too fazed, but at least he pulls away, and Sheena's fist feels a little stronger. That was totally the point of the whole thing, anyway. Obviously.

Frog #2 takes a few steps back on the fucking ROOF and stares across at Frog #1, arms folded across his chest. Frog #1 takes a few steps back on the fucking ROOF and stares across at Frog #2, arms folded across her chest. Frog #2 watches Frog #1, and waits. Frog #1 watches Frog #2, and waits. Frog #2 gives in first. "Fine, let me show you how it's done," he grumbles, glaring across the fucking ROOF. He takes a step forward, attempts to break into a run around the fucking ROOF, and slips. Frog #1 covers her mouth to hide a giggle. Whose bright idea was it to try to run around in circles real fast around the slippery fucking ROOF? Certainly not hers, that's for sure. Nooooope.

AWW COME ON EIFIE YOU KNOW I USED ME FIRST TO FORCE A DOUBLE TEAM >:C

REGARDLESS, WE'RE HERE, LET'S GET TO SUPER FANGIN'. USE IT UNTIL IT WORKS, THEN SMASH HER IN THE LEG WITH YOUR SUPERIOR LEG. IF FROG #1 PROTECTS OR IS UNTARGETABLE, WE'LL USE ACUPRESSURE BECAUSE THAT IS A FUN MOVE. SHOW HER YOU'RE THE REAL NUMBER ONE, FROG.

IF YOU'RE ATTRACTED THEN YOU KNOW SHE WANTS YOUR FINE, FINE, KISS. THE KISS OF A FROG, MAYBE IT'LL TURN HER INTO A PRINCESS OR YOU INTO A PRINCE IDEK SOMETHING. IT'LL BE THE MOST LOVING SUPER FANG SHE'S EVER SEEN, THE BIGGEST SMOOCH WITH A BITE OF A FEISTY BITE. SHOW HER THAT YOU LIKE HARD LOVIN' AND SHE'S GOTTEN HERSELF INTO A BAD BOY'S LIFE. AND NOW THAT WE'VE CAUGHT HER INTEREST WITH YOUR NO NONSENSE DIRECT WAYS, WE'LL SHOW HER THAT WE CAN TAKE CARE OF HER, THAT WE CAN DO PRINCELY THINGS EVEN THOUGH WE ROLL HARD. WE'LL SWEEP HER OFF HER FEET, GLIDING YOUR LEG ACROSS THE ICE AND LETTING THE SHINE CATCH YOURS AND HERS EYES. SHE WILL LOOK AT THAT LEG AND GO DAMN THAT IS A FROG I WANT.

SUPER FANG/ACUPRESSURE ~ SUPER FANG/LOW SWEEP/ACUPRESSURE
 
Make the smallest Substitute you can (blow a bubble and make it out of that, or something... I know "officially" 10% is the smallest possible but screw the rules use 1% if you can) to take the Super Fang, and hope Frog then assumes it "worked" as far as his commands are concerned. Then use another Hydro Pump! Try to get the ROOF as wet as possible so maybe he slips and falls like a doofus again when he tries to use Low Sweep.

Substitute (miniscule) ~ Hydro Pump

I'M ON MOBILE SO IT'S REALLY HARD TO SCREAM LIKE THE ROOF REQUIRES :(
 
I just realized that I was incorrectly using Low Sweep's base power as 60 instead of 65. That's fixed now; Frog loses a whopping 1% energy and Sheena loses an astounding 1% health. I trust that's not major enough for anyone to want to change their orders.

SHEENA GLANCES FRANTICALLY AROUND THE FUCKING ROOF AS FROG TAPS A FOOT IMPATIENTLY. NO MATERIAL TO BE FOUND. WHAT'S SHE SUPPOSED TO DO? SHE'S GOT A SUBSTITUTE TO MAKE!

FROG HEAVES AN EXASPERATED SIGH AND BEGINS TO PROWL ACROSS THE FUCKING ROOF, FRONT TEETH GLOWING A DAZZLING WHITE AGAIN, AND IT'S DECIDEDLY NOT BECAUSE OF HIS YEARS OF TRAINING AS A COLGATE MODEL. FINALLY, A BRILLIANT IDEA OCCURS TO FROG #1.

"ONE MINUTE," SHE SAYS BRIGHTLY, AND PROMPTLY DISAPPEARS OVER THE SIDE OF THE FUCKING ROOF.

FROG ROLLS HIS EYES AND WAITS.

A FEW SECONDS LATER FROG #1 REAPPEARS ON THE EDGE OF THE FUCKING ROOF, SMALL BABY FROM THE ORANGE CARRIAGE IN TOW. SHE POSITIONS HERSELF ACROSS FROM FROG #2 ON THE FUCKING ROOF AND HOLDS THE BABY IN FRONT OF HER IN A DEFENSIVE POSITION. "COME AT ME BRO"

THE HARRIED BABYSITTER CHOOSES THAT MOMENT TO CLIMB OVER THE EDGE OF THE FUCKING ROOF (SOMEHOW) AND SWIPE THE BABY AWAY FROM THE HAPLESS FROG, JUST AS FROG #2 IS ABOUT TO CHOMP DOWN ON IT. DOESN'T SHEENA KNOW THAT YOU CAN'T USE A FREAKING CHILD AS A SHIELD?! JEEZ, SHE CAN'T LET ANYONE FIND OUT ABOUT THIS, OR SHE WON'T GET PAID! AS THE BABYSITTER STOMPS BACK DOWN INTO HER CARRIAGE (SOMEHOW), FROG SHRUGS AND SINKS HIS TEETH INTO SHEENA'S SIDE INSTEAD. SHEENA CRIES OUT IN HORRIFIED PAIN AS HE OPENS UP A HUGE WOUND IN HER SKIN AND SORELY MISSES THAT DEFENSELESS BABY.

WELL, THE LEAST SHE CAN DO IS TRIP THAT FROG BOY UP AND MAKE HIM LOOK ALMOST AS STUPID AS HER. PULLING UP HUGE AMOUNTS OF LIQUID FROM HER NEVER-ENDING INTERNAL SUPPLY, SHEENA LETS A TORRENT OF WATER GUSH FORTH FROM HER MOUTH, THIS TIME LIFTING FROG UP OFF THE GROUND AND KNOCKING HIM BACKWARD INTO HIS TRAINER'S SHIRT. (TRUETOCHEESE MUTTERS A FEW CURSES UNDER HIS BREATH AS HE HELPS FROG RIGHT HIMSELF YET AGAIN, AND THEN ATTEMPTS TO WIPE HIS SOAKED SHIRT ON THE EVEN-MORE-SOAKED CROAGUNK TO NO AVAIL.) BUT FROG #2 IS STILL A MASTER OF SUCH HAZARDOUS, SLIPPERY ENVIRONMENTS! AFTER ALL, HE LEARNED HOW TO BATTLE FROM HIS JEDI MASTER ON THE SLIPPERY WET ROOF OF A SPEEDING TRAIN! SO IT IS NO TROUBLE FOR HIM TO AMBLE FORWARD AND CASUALLY SLIDE FEET-FIRST INTO FROG #1'S UNDERSIDE TO TRIP HER AGAIN. IT IS, OF COURSE, ENTIRELY BY DESIGN THAT THEY GO SLIDING OFF THE ROOF IN A TANGLED HEAP TO LAND WITH A CRASH ON THE FLOOR OF THE GREEN CAR ADJACENT, WHICH SOMEHOW OPENED UP TO WELCOME THEM. AND WHEN A STRANGE PLASTIC PLANT ATTACHES ITSELF TO HIM AND JUST WON'T LET GO... THAT WAS COMPLETELY PLANNED. OBVIOUSLY.

Sheena glances frantically around the fucking ROOF as Frog taps a foot impatiently. No material to be found. What's she supposed to do? She's got a Substitute to make!

Frog heaves an exasperated sigh and begins to prowl across the fucking ROOF, front teeth glowing a dazzling white again, and it's decidedly not because of his years of training as a Colgate model. Finally, a brilliant idea occurs to Frog #1.

"One minute," she says brightly, and promptly disappears over the side of the fucking ROOF.

Frog rolls his eyes and waits.

A few seconds later Frog #1 reappears on the edge of the fucking ROOF, small baby from the orange carriage in tow. She positions herself across from Frog #2 on the fucking ROOF and holds the baby in front of her in a defensive position. "COME AT ME BRO"

The harried babysitter chooses that moment to climb over the edge of the fucking ROOF (somehow) and swipe the baby away from the hapless frog, just as Frog #2 is about to chomp down on it. Doesn't Sheena know that you can't use a freaking child as a shield?! Jeez, she can't let anyone find out about this, or she won't get paid! As the babysitter stomps back down into her carriage (somehow), Frog shrugs and sinks his teeth into Sheena's side instead. Sheena cries out in horrified pain as he opens up a huge wound in her skin and sorely misses that defenseless baby.

Well, the least she can do is trip that frog boy up and make him look almost as stupid as her. Pulling up huge amounts of liquid from her never-ending internal supply, Sheena lets a torrent of water gush forth from her mouth, this time lifting Frog up off the ground and knocking him backward into his trainer's shirt. (TruetoCheese mutters a few curses under his breath as he helps Frog right himself yet again, and then attempts to wipe his soaked shirt on the even-more-soaked Croagunk to no avail.) But Frog #2 is still a master of such hazardous, slippery environments! After all, he learned how to battle from his Jedi master on the slippery wet roof of a speeding train! So it is no trouble for him to amble forward and casually slide feet-first into Frog #1's underside to trip her again. It is, of course, entirely by design that they go sliding off the roof in a tangled heap to land with a crash on the floor of the green car adjacent, which somehow opened up to welcome them. And when a strange plastic plant attaches itself to him and just won't let go... that was completely planned. Obviously.

Arena Status
  • The battlers are in the green car. There are fake plants and shit. One is stuck to Frog #2.

Damage and Energy

  • Frog's Health: 75% - 13% (Hydro Pump) - 10% (FALL OFF THE FUCKING ROOF) = 52%
  • Frog's Energy: 60% - 20% (Super Fang) - 4% (Low Sweep) = 36%
  • Sheena's Health: 51% - 26% (Super Fang) - 1% (poison) - 8% (Low Sweep) - 1% (poison) - 10% (FALL OFF THE FUCKING ROOF) = 21% (capped)
  • Sheena's Energy: 87% - 6% (Hydro Pump) = 81%

Notes
  • Substitute is banned in this battle. I forgot, too.
  • I rolled for whether or not Low Sweep would succeed since the ROOF was all slippery. It did.
  • The battlers just barely fell off the fucking ROOF. They are now in the green room. Frog (#2) has a Sun-Flower attached to him and cannot use special moves this round unless he takes an action to destroy it.
  • Frog is now faster than Sheena (50 > 41).
  • JackPK commands first.
