Spoiler(05-17-2018, 09:15 PM)Lord Windos Wrote: The Gauntlet Round 8!
Arial distinct lack of ethusiam as Reiner sends out two of his most powerful Pokémon to face them has the Sekmets looking suddenly MUCH more apprehensive, both of them letting out low, nervous, yet none the less hostile/aggressive *Brrrrrrzzzzzzt.......* at the snakes. If their master didn't have much confidence in their ability to prevail against his bad boss' Dragons, and what's more seemed to just not care anymore whether or not they won or not..........then why should they have any hope that things will turn out well for them in the end. All told, Arial's dour and pessimistic attitude is demoralizing to his queens of nuclear green, enough that their Happiness is temporarily lowered by 1!
What didn't help the glowing green bug's mood any was when the crystals on Yang's tail and neck lite up and radiated a cool blue light as he began to preform an elaborate dance in a (to them) a brazen display of showboating his might and superiority!
Rain Dance
(2)(2)(4)(2)(6)(2)(4)(5)
....and both nuclear abominations only grew more uneasy as rain clouds suddenly formed above the area, which subsequently triggered the built in sensor in the cieling above and causes specially modified sprinklers to pop out and began spilling out water to feed into the unnaturally generated cloudfront. Together, this ends up triggering Heavy Rainfall as the clouds soon upended buckets of water on everyone within the area! + 2 Damage Dice to Water attacks! HR will last 4 Rounds!
This ended up putting both copies of Sekmet on high fearful alert, as she full well what sort of hell the rain affliated dragon had unwittingly unleash. Oh damn it all, its her battle against Mega Manetric all over again, isn't it?!
Unbeknowst to Reiner, however, the Heavy Rainfall began to interact with Electric Terrain generated by Raijin just the Round prior (3 Rounds on it left counting this one, btw), causing the battlegrounds to erupt in a sparking, tazing nightmare and making all but the Sekmets react with a marked look of surprise! All non-Grass/Ground/Electric types will take 3D6 Electric Damage at the end of each round!
Alomomola felt torn about the sudden Heavy Rainfall on the battlefield, as while the weather appealed greatly to the Water type, the surge of electricity it ended up generating from the Electric Terrain coated battlefield left her DISTINCTUALLY uneasy, as both she and Poe will end up taking Damage because of it! Never the less she was able to overcome her reservations and began the process of aerolizing more water to blanket her side of the battlefield with:
Mist!
(4)(4)(1)(4)(3)(2)(5)(1)(-)(-)(-)
Alomomola spews forth more stat protecting mist to cover her master's side of the battlefield! However, due to the HR, the counter for its expiration will not begin until HR ends! AKA: Mist remains up indefinitely so long as Rain is up, and then it will count down from its regular countdown of 4 Rounds!
Since the healing halibut neatly prevented him from debilitating the hecky out of the glowing green bugs, he instead opted to turn towards the royal blue reptile and started to praise/laud them in order to inspire them to do even greater things in battle!
Helping Hand
(3)(1)(4)(2)(1)(5)(4)(3)(-)(-)
Yang accepts the cheering with grace and dignity, causing his next attack to gain + 3 Accuracy and Damage Dice!
Acid 1
(3)(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(1) .......Mega Arbok tries to spit up a great big glob of corrosive poison to coat both walking nuclear disasters, but the Heavy Rainfall ends up diluting the Move to the point of ineffectiveness. The hissing hydra was quirk to twist towards his regal serpent counterpart and shot them many glares, as if to say 'This is your fault!', to which they respond with a dismissive *Hmpt* and ignored them! Trouble in paradise for the purple snake indeed!
....Which is only compounded when both walking nuclear disaster let out a loud *BRRZZZT!*, his only warning before they shot their insanely deadily Full Life Combo right at him!
HALF LIFE X2 (1)
(4)(6)(2)(3)(1)
(6)(4)(1)(6)(3) Both laser beams nail the colossal cobra!
Damage: Current HP is 7, so the Damage each move will do is 3D6 + 2 Damage
(5)(5)(6)
(5)(3)(3)
Mega Arbok rears up and lets out a horrifying hissing wail as both beams ended up baking and steaming him due to the nuclear energy evaporating the water on his scales, before he slams into the ground and passes out, detransforming into his base form in the process!
Aftermath: (-)(-)(-), (-)(-)(-)
Rad Damage:
1st Hit - [3.75% - (2*Loyalty)] * 4 (Poison and Dark typing) = 5% Min
2nd Hit - Same as first Hit
Mega Arbok takes 10% Rad Damage; Same deal applies to him as Raijin.
The swift and almost instantaneous defeat of his partner snapped Yang out of his previous aloofness to stare at them and then the nuclear powered twins in pure shock, before it turns into cold disspassonate wrath as he raised himself high and called upon the very heaven to strike those monsters down! No one harms his allies in such a horrific way, even if he doesn't care for them all that much himself (Its the principle of the matter)!
THUNDER 1 (Non Lethal)
Target: Coinflip - Head Original, Tails Clone = (Tails) Clone!
(5)(4)(3)(5)(6)(6)(5)(5)(6)(5) One of the lights above the area fizzles out, before a MASSIVE bolt of lighting shot right out of and shattering with a loud *BANG!* and crashes right into the clone with great force that briefly causes the lights in the room to flicker erratically! Critical Hit!!!
Damage: 8D6 Base Damage + Electric Terrain (2) + Helping Hand (3) - 3 Vitality = 10D6 + 1 DAMAGE!
(3)(5)(6)(3)(5)(3)(6)(5)(1)(2) ....
Paralysis: 3D6 Chance Dice on Clone (Not that it matters), 1D6 on Original
(5)(6)(6) , (2) Nope for Original!
The clone let out a shriek that sounded like hundreds over computer moniters were violently melting down, as the electricity of the Thunder ripped right through her, before they just......*POPPED!* in a bright neon green cloud of smoke! Surprisingly (to Reiner) the remaining Original Sekmet ALSO seemed to be affected by the move, letting out equally pained and distressed noises as they thrashed around briefly before Arial called for her to get a hold of herself! Sekmet takes 3 Damage due to bleed over from the move; 4/13 HP , - 2 Pain!
Sekmet refused to be totally taken out by the all too real damage she shared with her clone, so once she recovered she swiftly retaliated by firing off more enervating laser beams at her now much dreaded opponent!
HALF LIFE 2
(5)(3) Hits!
Damage: 9D6 + 1 Damage
(6)(5)(4)(2)(4)(5)(5)(3)(4) Yang takes 8 Damage; 10/18 HP, - 1 Pain!
Aftermath: (5)(3)(2) Yang takes an additional 1 Damage; 9/18 HP, - 2 Pain!
Rad Count: 5% Minimum
Yang gains 5% Rads
The royal serpent retaliates from the grevious damage he took by rising up and hissing out what you could feel was some form of draconic curse, raging and demanding that the heavens once again punish his opponent for DARING to harm his magnificent self.
THUNDER 2 (Non Lethal)
(2)(3)(2)(5) Hits! Another arc of lighting shoots out of the now smoldering light fixture, though this one is much small and doesn't cause the room to flicker!
Damage: 7D6 + 1
(5)(1)(4)(4)(2)(1)(1) Sekmet takes 3 Damage; 1/13 HP, - 3 Pain!
Paralysis: (6)(1)(2) ZZZZZZap! Sekmet's Paralyzed!
Sekmet let out a sound exactly the same as her clone did when they got hit by the Thunder as they got the shock of her life, sparks flying off her as she hunched over and nearly collapsed ionto the ground, the combined Pain from her immense injuries and Paralysis inflicted on her preventing her from executing her last Move, or doing much of anything at all! Fortunately for her, Reiner didn't order Yang (Who was panting from his own injuries) to bring down even MORE literal Thunder on her, so she was spared from further damage from the draconic snake!
However, neither combatants or support Pokémon's woes were over for this Round, as the Electric Terrain energies choose at that moment to rage wildly out of control and lash out at all within its range!
Electric Terrain Damage:
Yang - (6)(4)(5) the purebred Dragon takes 2 Damage as the live current from the Electric Terrain leaped right up and scorched him, causing him to stagger and let out a hiss of displeasure/pain! 7/18 HP
Sekmet - (4)(6)(5) Sekmet is shocked into unconsciousness by the Electric Terrain, forcing Arial to recall her promptly least she start racking up Lethal Damage!
Alomomola: (6)(2)(6) the cleric takes 4 Damage as the Terrain sears into them, causing her to let out a Pained squewl as she briefly flopped and twitched in place from the Electricity! 3/7 HP, - 2 Pain!
Poe: (5)(5)(3) the fluffy furball takes 1 Damage due to the Damage Reduction granted by his Reaper's Cloth, but he's FAR from happy as the sparks from the field cause him to cry out in Pain and his hair to poof up with an audible *FLOMP!* 2/3 HP, - 1 Pain!
Arbok: Presumably Reiner recalled them promptly as they Fainted, so he takes no damage from the Electric Terrain.
Ridia: Manages to leap away from the area before it could shock her, but she immediately rushes back over to check up on her brother, before she turned to Reiner and gave him a right nasty glare! It was HIS fault this happened to her sweet precious fluffball, all because he thought it was a wise idea to summon a rainstorm while electricity was coursing throughout the battlefield! She is PISSED this happened as a result of your recklessness, and temporarily loses 1 Happiness and Loyalty as a result!
Felica: She's far enough away from the area where she can't get zapped by it, but it manages to grab her wary attention none the less as she started at the place like it was going to get her!
Asura: Since he wasn't engaged in the battle, he's able to react quickly enough to backflip away from the battlefield/Alomomola before it too could electrocute him, with him landing perfectly on his feet on a insulated weight lifting bench. He gives Reiner a none to impressed stare as he crossed his arms and sat down on his new perch, looking at him like he did something completely idiotic and unbefitting of their keen intelligence...
Reiner and Arial: They are far enough away from the area not to get shocked, or they are standing on parts of the area that are heavily insulated from elemental/Move damage. Either way, they don't get damaged.
End Result of the battle: Yang is left burnt and withered from his tango with Sekmet and the combination of his Heavy Rainfall and Raijin's Electric Terrain, and Poe + Alomomola are in different state or distress due to getting caught in the 'crossfire' , so to speak. Overall, this Round didn't turn out like either side expected, as both got far more than they bargained for...
How both men react to this......
"You...SON OF A USELESS MAGIKARP! YOU HAVE ANY MENTAL TROUBLE OR WHAT?! YOU TELLING ME THAT I BROKE THE RULES, BUT YOU BROKE THE SAME RULES YOU PRETEND DRAGON TAMER! LOOK WHAT YOU DONE TO ALOMOMOLA AND EEVEE! AND DON'T BLAME ME OR AVOID THE SUBECT BECAUSE THIS IS YOUR FAULT! YOU STUPID TWAT!"
Wow. Talking about be super piss of.
"Do you still want to continue this excuse of a training because after that stupid decision, even I begin to question your sanity and mine. You have returned more angered and terrible after your battle against Clair. What the hell just happened? I not going to continue this stupid battle and risk the life of my team until you bring a good answer! I may be paid to be your bodyguard, but I will not let my family die because of a stupid and reckless rocket grunt choose one who put the life of everyone around in constant danger of death! Yeah! I finally say!"
Arial pant a lot. All the stress and hate finally take the better of him. Wonder how Reiner will react to this.
Kogeki currently ability to active in battles: Anticipation.
