Okay, so I’ve decided that I’d give warstory writing another shot, and I think this rematch against Syl could be some good material. So, with no further adieu, I'll get started.

So Infernape is down. Last time, I brought in Metagross to get in a strong hit, but Heatran is the switchin this time. I run Modest SpecsTran, which often catches lots of people off guard expecting Scarf or SubToxic. Dragon Pulse has great neutral coverage, and will nail Latias should he for some reason decide to stay in.

Good, I think, as I remember his ResTalk Rotom-W. He must have brought it in expecting HP Ice. I know that it has Hydro Pump, so I bring Breloom in to wreak havoc on his team. Rotom-W may ResTalk to deal with Spore, but it won't like powerful Seed Bombs to the face.

A double switch leaves gives me the advantage here, but I don't know what his Tyranitar runs since all it did was Crunch in the last match. A Focus Punch wouldn't be wise at this point, so I figure that he will go to Latias to absorb a Seed Bomb. I click Spore.

Now there are several things that could happen here. The fire attack is obvious, so I can't do that. Its either Earth Power to nail Tyranitar as it comes in, or dragon pulse to hit the floating Latias. Swampert is hit equally hard either way. I decide that the sleeping Latias is a lesser threat than allowing Tyranitar a free switch, and decide to Earth Power.

I prepare to sacrifice Gengar - its done more than enough and if I lock Jirachi into Iron Head, Heatran can come in for free and finish everything with Earth Power. To my surprise, it survives a U-Turn and blasts Swampert with a Shadow Ball right before it dies. Neither Heatran nor Metagross can take Swampert though, so it looks like Zapdos is taking some Ice beams. Because my Zapdos carries Metal Sound, it actually has a fighting chance.

Guess not...but Latias is down and out. Scizor can Bullet Punch, but Jirachi's Scarf means its probably coming out again.

I prepare to sacrifice Gengar - its done more than enough and if I lock Jirachi into Iron Head, Heatran can come in for free and finish everything with Earth Power. To my surprise, it survives a U-Turn and blasts Swampert with a Shadow Ball right before it dies. Neither Heatran nor Metagross can take Swampert though, so it looks like Zapdos is taking some Ice beams. Because my Zapdos carries Metal Sound, it actually has a fighting chance.

Prediction time. That critical hit puts me right back where I started, so he's probably expecting me to Roost. With an HP Ice, I can hurt him enough to KO next turn and finish up with Metagross.

Great! Zapdos has removed Swampert - which helps Heatran and especially Metagross. Tyranitar is next, I know it, but it won't like a quick Thunderbolt.

Oh no. If Tyranitar is able to KO Meta with Earthquake, then I'm done. I see the leftovers, though, and decide that it could still be mine.

I really didn't need to use Agility here, so that was kind of dumb, but it didn't really have any effect on the outcome. Earthquake lets me kill this, Jirachi, and hit Scizor neutral as well.

Scarf Fire Punch finishes metagross, but it gives Heatran the ability to wrap this up. Jirachi can only watch helplessly as it and its teammate are roasted in Heatran's flames.

The switch to Scizor ends in its demise. I didn't get why he did this at first, but then it hit me...flinchhax. Having used Jirachi before, and being quite familiar with Togekiss' infamous flinch victories, I actually consider the possibility of being flinched to death and losing the match.
