Completed TMan87 vs. Snom

Let's make things simple here. We have TMan87 and かたわれ時 known as Snom here to battle today. Here are the rules.

3v3 Singles (Stage 3*-5*)
DQ: 48 hour
Items: On
Abilities: All
Subs: 3
Arena: ASB Arena

And here are the teams:

TMan87:

Despite her rather tall stature and fire being her element of choice, Lotte is actually a very quiet girl. She's just happy wandering around, discovering new places and practicing her moves. She gets really flustered if she loses her wand, so she takes extra care of it, even having a small case to store it at night. She prefers to attack from afar, since a) it's her strong suit, and b) she can have some trouble interacting with people up close.
Just watch out to not make her angry. It's a thankfully very rare sight to see, but she gets eruptive until she's cooled down, and since she can (and will) burn anything to cinders, you don't want her erupting on you.

Ugh, why are you here? I thought I had left you behind! If I must go through the pain of barging into another dimension, can't I at least get the perks as well?
Anyway, here's Dahlia. She's... not green and not a bean, but she's mean and she's not afraid of showing it. She'll make you suffer and enjoy it. No one in the team likes battling in the same way she does. Others do it for the glory, or battle because they are ordered to, but Dahlia... nah, there's something wrong with her.
She wields her new toy Mystical Fire with quite the laugh, too. Yay.

Let's just say the transition to a new world didn't really change Butler. Still as taciturn as ever, rumor has it he's secretly lamenting because his arsenal has been somewhat reduced. If that's the case, then he's done an exceptional job hiding it under his usual cold resolve.
Really, there's not much thta has changed: he's still prepared, he'll still stoicly tank your attacks, and he still needs help when under Fire.

Nite [♀] Dragonite [Stage: 3]
Type: Dragon / Flying
Hidden Power Type: Steel

[Abilities]

Inner Focus
This Pokemon has unshakable mental composure. It is immune to Intimidate. Also, Flinching does not prevent it from acting, but if it has another ability that would be activated by flinching, that ability still activates.

Multiscale (*)
This Pokemon has sturdy scales to protect it from an opponent's attacks. If this Pokemon is at their maximum HP when a round starts, all damage done to this Pokemon by attacks with BAP during the round will be halved.

Shy and sweet, Nite makes an effort to be nice to everyone. This works fine for now, when most of the other pokemon on my team are nice enough.

[Abilities]

Steadfast
If this Pokemon is flinched, it becomes aware of the speed difference and increases its Speed (adjusting the natural stage) by one (1) stage to make up the difference.

Justified
This Pokemon's body reacts to dark energy, invigorating its passions. When hit by a Dark-type move, the Pokémon's Attack will increase one (1) stage (adjusting the natural stage).

Serenity [♀] Serperior [Stage: 3]
Type: Grass
Hidden Power Type: Rock

[Abilities]

Overgrow
When this Pokemon's HP is lower than 33% (flat), the Base Attack Power of any grass attack is increased by three (3). (eg Giga Drain goes from 8 to 11, Solar Beam from 12 to 15)

Contrary
By default this Pokemon's unique structure reverses stat changes it receives in battle, from both its own attacks and those of other Pokemon. At the end of the round, stat changes will still increase/decrease toward 0. When toggled, it has no effect.

"Well, let's see how much you and your Pokémon have grown, shall we?"
:roserade: "What's that, a Gym Leader speech?"
"You're not even in the fight, stop interrupting the narration!"
:forretress: *quietly rolls into the battlefield*


Sending out Domovoi Butler the Forretress w/ Occa Berry!
 
Hrm hom not a good set of matchups and first turn order.
Have we improved? Well yes I'm sure we've improved but I still think we're gonna lose
Let's go with Gallade shall we? We'll have our best success when he's under fire.

:sm/gallade: w/ Muscle Band :muscle-band:
Despite having a Kalosian accent I know nothing about Kalosian culture.
Fire Punch ~ Fire Punch ~ Fire Punch
IF
successful D/E, THEN Earthquake and push back.
IF successful P/E, THEN Feint and push back.
IF Bide, THEN initiate action string Hypnosis ~ Swords Dance ~ Toxic.

A bunch more moves I would have liked to sub for but this should be fine
I'm dealing so little damage lol

Sending out Dahlia Hawthorne the Gourgeist-XL w/ Metronome!

[ONCE] IF
Knock Off AND Gallade isn't to use Encore the next action AND Misty Terrain is not up THEN Will-o-Wisp AND alternate Hex and Shadow Ball afterwards
IF Psychic-type move THEN Brutal Swing odd instances, Leech Seed even instances
IF damaging Dark-type combo AND you hold Metronome THEN (Phantom Force + Phantom Force)
 
Well this matchup isn't particularly good, but we'll see how this goes
Also I think we ought to have gone Weakness Policy

Round 3:

I never did like Serperior. It looks rather unusual for a starter. It also has one trick, and that's it. A trick that can be easily exploited, as TMan shows.

Action One:
Serperior used Leaf Storm
To Hit: Guaranteed by Wise Glasses
To Crit: [1=Yes]=23=No
Damage: [14+3]*.75=12.75~13
[13 Damage Gou] [8 Energy Ser] [+2 SpA Ser]

Gourgeist used Skill Swap
Serperior has Insomnia
Gourgeist has Contrary
[7 Energy Gou]

Action Two:
Serperior used Giga Drain
To Crit: [1=Yes]=24=No
Damage: [8+3]*.75+4=12.25~12
Drain: None; at full hp
[12 Damage Gou] [8 Energy Ser]

Gourgeist used Fire Blast
To Hit: [15>= Miss]=68=Hit
To Crit: [1=Yes]=16=No
To Burn: [10>= Yes]=10=Yes
Damage: [11-3]*1.5=12
[12 Damage Ser] [8 Energy Gou]
Serperior Burned

Burn: [2 Damage Ser]

Action Three:
Serperior used Leaf Storm
To Crit: [1=Yes]=16=No
Damage: [14+3]*.75+4=16.75~17
[17 Damage Gou] [8 Energy Ser] [-2 SpA Ser]

Gourgeist used Fire Blast
To Hit: [15>= Miss]=89=Hit
To Crit: [1=Yes]=11=No
Damage: [11-3+1]*1.5=13.5~14
[14 Damage Ser] [10 Energy Gou]

Burn: [2 Damage Ser]

I'm pretty much going to die here right.
Yeah. Yes I am.
Our goal is to survive as long as possible... would we die faster by doing DNite first order or Serperior second order?
Well there's still Delphox in the back
Argh
Ok Tini try your best to make this situation a little better!

The type matchups I'm facing here aren't very good tbh

"Now that's some very nice damage. Let's keep our reserves fresh for the final showdown."
:gourgeist: "So little life force left... I won't get satisfied with just that..."


Sending out Gourgeist again!

Moonblast | Moonblast | Moonblast

IF
Dragonite is in the evasive phase of D/E when you are to act THEN Phantom Force
IF under successful P/E THEN Phantom Force
IF Dragonite is under the effect of Endure AND Dragonite isn't under the effect of Leech Seed THEN Leech Seed
 
Wonder if I can counterswitch in this situation
Also, don't like Bide activating at +1 priority

:sm/dragonite:
"But hey! We ~did~ learn something! Argh ow"
[Activate RCB] Flamethrower ~ Flamethrower ~ Extreme Speed + Aerial Ace

Don't forget that Serperior and Gourgeist have their usual abilities back

Interesting that I have made such a hateable character in my Serperior. All the worst aspects of me I suppose.
Anyhow let’s just finish this battle for good. Very nice learning opportunity. Gg TMan!
