The Gauntlet Round 15!
Kingdra would normally prefer to flaunt her most powerful moves and utterly decimate her enemy, but between Reiner's silent urgings and that small amount of respect she find herself having for the brave Shiny Gligar, she decides to give them a slight chance to win by just spray a stream of stinging bubbles at them!
Bubblebeam 1
(6)(6)(1)(1)(6)(5)(3)(1)(1) Not enough for a Crit, surpringly, but the move will still pack quite a wallop in the Rain! Hit!
Damage: STR (*2) + 3 + STAB + Heavy Rain + SE - Vitality (3 [He doesn't benefit from Masochism, since he's still an independent Pokémon technically!]) = 5D6 + 1 Damage
(1)(1)(3)(2)(6) In a stunning display of resolve and skill, Durendal managed to dodge most of the bubbles sent his way and tank the rest like the champ, only taking 1 Damage in the entire exchange! What a champ!!! 5/6 HP!
Debuff: (4) Nope
Once the stream of bubbles abated, the scorpiobat's hovered in mid air as their gaze turned deadly serious as they stared at the Dragon Queen of the Sea, disregarding Arial's orders for the match as they pondered for their own attack plan. They know that they likely couldn't pull off another series of maneuvers like that, and that any one of her next attacks has the potential to serious cripple or outright KO them. Given her immense Defenses and relatively weak Strength, his normal tactics would only inflict chip damage on her that wouldn't be enough to put her down, giving her the chance to do the same to him. It seemed like an insurmountable task to take down Kingdra in one hit, then.
However, they had a way. It was high risk, but if he could pull it off.....
No! He would.
Time to put everything on the line, to make one of the biggest gambles in his life! He would do whatever it took to defend his friends, and he would not ever fail them like he with Delta Muk ever again!!!
A deathly aura began to surround and cling to Durendal as his claw/pincers radiated an errie light that made everyone feel nervous.
Then, in the next moment, they flickered out of sight......and then suddenly materialized in front of Kingdra, claws/pincer crossed together as they got ready to execute:
G U I L L O T I N E
ACCURACY: DEX (3) + FIGHT (5) + BRAWL (3) + SINGLE ACTION (2) - 7 ACCURACY = 6D6 DICE
(1) (4) (1) (4) (4) (4)
Durendal takes aim at Kingdra's neck.
*Snap *
The once raging dragoness collapses on the ground, eye rolled up and her head now bent + dangling at an angling that is nausea inducing and terrifying to see. She's still alive and non-Lethally harmed, but that's just about it.
The sparling night time flyer quickly disengages and returns over to their side of the field, landing on the rain slicked arena and panting from the exertion of pulling of an OHKO move. Never the less, they pulled themselves up and stood tall, showing everyone that he was the proud victor of not only this match, but of the entire Gauntlet. Bulky Water may normally beat Hyper Offensive Ground, but they defied such conventions and pulled out all the stops to win this! To save his friend Arial from a humilating defeat! Its not full repayment for his failure, but it was a grand start towards it indeed!
They did it! They did it!!!
After a long, grueling battle, with many upsets and plenty of drama on and off the battlefield, the winner of The Guantlet was.......
Arial and Durendal!!!
Despite the odds, the madman has done it people! He's proven himself that he's truly as competent as his status of being Reiner's bodyguard implies! This will be a battle that not only he'll remember for a long time to come, but will certainly leave a strong impression with his boss!
Arial and all his Pokémon that fought in the Gauntlet (Including Durendal) gain 20 XP. He also gains a Will Point, for the defiant spirit that has been kindled throughout the match! Reiner and his Pokemon sent out into the battle gain 10 XP + 2, since they lost and they weren't giving their all as per their master's orders; this was supposed to be test, no an all out battle from their side, after all. Still, they displayed enough cunning within those limitation and suffered enough bad luck to earn a smigen more XP!
The question now was this: How would each side react to the outcome of this climatic end to The Gauntlet?

Like the wind, I come and go as I please... but I am always there to provide a comforting breeze.
