Heart vs Shiva Round 1

Shiva has somewhat expected that he'd try to gain an advantage over her much beloved blue mouse rabbit, so the sight of Phantump and that smol Tynamo opening the battle from his side didn't came as much of a surpise. She's mostly standing there at her affirmend spot, arms slightly crossed, and overly has a calm attitude surrounding. Insecurity is present, definitely, but she doesn't let it win over her.

Azumarill herself doesn't seem to be impressed by that ghostplant and electric eel-thingy, and makes a determined leap towards them showing that she's all ready and just awaits her sweet Master's orders - once or twice she casts a glance over to her. Kyuu on the other hand seemed to prefer staying close to Shiva instead and starting this in his tempo, his evolution isn't long ago yet. Though from how his two tails twitch, she knows that he's as well just waiting for orders.


Meanwhile, Meowstic has padded around behind Heart's Pokemon. He makes a sudden whistle, and when they turn around in surprise, he's making a horrifying face!
Shiva pointed forward with one arm, which was the signal for Kyuu to unfold his ears.
Leer 1
(6)(1)(4)(2) -1 def for Shiva's foes!
The psychic power of that face lowers his foes' defenses, powered by Prankster.

From Azumarill comes not an Ice Beam, but a strange and eldritch noise, a sort of buzzing. A plague descends on Phantump!

Infestation 1
(6)(3)(5)(5)(4)(2)
4 dmg dice, -2* Def
(3)(3) No damage. (Grass is weak to Bug, but Ghost is strong against it, so this is neutral damage).
A haze of little moving bodies covers Phantump! Preventing him from leaving the battlefield, and dealing damage over time!

Spark 1
(5)(2)(1)(6)(3)
6 dice, -4 def
(3)(2) +1 Azumarill takes 1 dmg 8/9hp.
Prlz: (1)(2)(2)

Seeing that Azumarill isn't firing Ice Beams at him, Phantump fades into the shadows in preparation for a sneak attack!

Charging 1

Meowstic follows that up with a Fake Out, luckily on Tynamo and not the now-absent ghost.
Fake Out 2
(2)(4)(2)
(4)(2)(3) Tynamo takes 1 dmg and flinches 2. 5/6hp

Bubblebeam 2

Shiva used only 2/3 actions.

(5)(5)(1) Meowstic takes 3 dmg 2/8hp -2 pain

Spark 4
Not enough dice with the pain.

This is a no-fainting battle, right? Or wrong?

This is a no-fainting battle, right? Or wrong?

(Yes, it is. Oh, what a nice Round!~)

Azumarill first in Init Order, 5/9hp -1 Pain
Meowstic 2/8hp, -2 Pain, last in Init Order
Tynamo at 2/6hp, -2 Pain
Phantump plaqued by Infestation, 3/6hp, -2 Pain. Both at 2*Vitality, scary.




What an intense Round, somehow many things happened within the matter of seconds - though when all the Pokemon took a few moments of rest after having followed the orders, Shiva barely noticably perks up only to see that not only her psychic cat was in quite a pain, but also both of their foes. Over it all, Azu stood like an ace, visibly delighted over her susessful Infestation. Shiva however scratches her cheek a little, not quiet sure what would be the best approach here.

"So, eh, Heart, what will you do now? You remember that I don't want to faint your Pokemon if possible, though if me and Azumarill accidently do - then please forgive me." She faintly bows to him, which caused Cottonee to fly up into the air for short, only to softly land on her Master's head again when she's back upright.

(It is. And I must confess, that was a nice round!)

Heart couldnt hold his smile. That was a very balance first round. He open a smile and greet both of his Pokemons. "That was a nice beggining you two! Viktor, excelent job using Phantom Force. The training in Mt. Sentry worthy a lot. You can handle a bit that swarm of bugs, I know you can. Typhon, even in your first form, you can cause a good damage against Azumarill. You deserve a clap from me little one." Then Heart talk again with Shiva. "Heh, I didnt know you have teach Azumarill Infestation. To be honest I have expect you to use Ice Beam, but that move surprise me. You are indeed a surprise box Shiva! Thats only bring chills to continue our battle. And dont feel sorry Shiva. Its something normal in pokemon battles. But this is far for over."

Then Heart begin to think about what move she will problably do. "Hmm, what I should do now. Typhon have low health in this moment. Any attack might make him fall any moment. And Viktor its have the effects of Infestation. He will receive damage and I cant change him...heh, Shiva indeed is full of surprises, teaching Azul with Infestation. She will problably change Meowstic with another pokemon.... I must be prepare for everything."

(New Orders comming @Iron!)
