"I'm originally from Wineberry, but I don't spend much time there. Beedrill! Twineedles! Lopunny! Your fastest Bounce attack! Use the environment!"

Sid Round 1

Twineedle
6* Dex + 2 Fight + 1 Canalize -4/5 actions
Accuracy: (2)(6)(6)(4)(5) - 4 successes
Evasion: 9 dice! Didn't remember you had that. -3/4 actions = 6/5 dice.
Evasion: (6)(3)(6)(4)(1)(6) Yule, with a goat's instinct, leaps up onto the rusty fencerail surrounding the lot on two sides.
Accuracy: (5)(6)(3)(2) - 2 successes
Evasion: (2)(1)(4)(1)(1)
The first needle plunges into the vines growing up the fence, but the second hits Yule.

(6) Yule takes 2 dmg 4/6hp -1 pain
Poison: (1)(5)

Yule's first two actions taken up with Evasion.

Bounce
Lopunny charges along the field, long strides taking him over the grass. He leaps up on the fence after Yule, but this is just a feint on his way to jump atop the refrigerator, and then high high high into the air!

The speed of his two Pokemon is just incredible! The trainer himself is skating around and around the field, sometimes doing tricks designed for a skateboard and not inline skates, such as grinding along the fencerail. He's very excitable, but his orders are calm and collected.

Flame Charge
4 + 3 + 2 = 9 dice, -4 actions = 5 dice
(3)(3)(1)(5)(2) +1 Dex to Swiftfire
3 Str +2 power +1 STAB -3 vit = 3d6+1
(4)(6)(6) Beedrill takes 4 dmg 4/8hp, -2 pain. Roasted.

Beedrill's second action already occurred.

Yule's second action already occurred.

Bounce
6* Dex + 2 Fight +1 Brawl -5 actions = 4 dice
(6)(6)(2)(1)
2 Str + 3 power -3 vit = 2d6+1
(2)(5) Yule takes 2 dmg 2/6hp -2 pain
Paralyze: (4)(3)(4)

Fire Spin
+1 Dex from flame charge cancels out the second action penalty, then it has -2 acc
(4)(6)(1)
Also same damage.
(4)(2)(1) Beedrill takes 2 dmg 2/8hp -2 pain.
Beedrill became trapped! He whirls around and around the vortex, matching its speed, but can't find any way out!

Twineedle 3 on Yule - Swarm is active!
Accuracy (5) Only one needle even makes it out of the fiery vortex! The other is consumed.
Evasion: 9 dice, -5 actions, -2 pain = 2 dice (5)(4) Yule is able to dodge the overconfident Twineedle. He's perfectly happy to show off his dodging and climbing skills. Much more important than a subpar offensive move like Tackle. He looks to Swiftfire to see what she thinks of it. Sheathed in flames, she tosses her head at him encouragingly - at least as far as battling is concerned. She looks magnificent, having taken no damage so far!

"Lopunny, they'll be coming for you next! Defense Curl!"

Defense Curl
(2)(1)(1) Lopunny, still on the run, ducks into a ball. But he's going a bit too fast and hits a stone, disrupting his concentration and uncurling.

"No problem, just try one more time!"

Ember
(6)(5)(2)(6)
(6)(3)(1) Beedrill faints!

Yule only declared 3 actions. He baaaas back at Swiftfire and prances along his fence, almost getting in the way of Sid.

Defense Curl
(2)(1)

Ember 4
(3)(2)(4)
(5)(4)(1) Lopunny takes 2 dmg 5/7hp -1 pain.
Burn: (2)

Sid Round 2

Alone in the empty lot, these two trainers get to witness one of the fastest paced battles ever seen in the Steel City!

Sid hefts another Pokeball and sends it onto the field without pause. Is Nathan making any switches?
