Safari Cup - Nathan 3 Round 2

Knockdown 1
(4)(3)(6)(1)(4)(4)(1)
(1)
Poliwrath takes -1 accuracy. He flails a little in the water. Mizu keeps swimming around, creating a tiny whirlpool current to keep him off balance.

Poliwrath is a little angry and Harris is egging it on. He feels too debuffed to try Hypnosis again.

Shed Skin: (6)(1)(1) Paralysis was healed.

Dratini is looking a little the worse for wear, but she's still bravely fighting on. She's certainly given Poliwrath a lot of trouble, which he still hasn't been able to solve. He's one tough bulky frog.

Alright, new question, but this one isn't related to the battle much at all: is the skin that Mizu sheds when her Ability triggers in battle worth anything monetarily or as a potential crafting material?

Nathan eyes that Poliwrath carefully...hmmm...that didn't quite go how he wanted it too...Mizu's a lot faster now, though, and that Poliwrath is going to struggle to do much of anything without getting back up again...if he can just get the Fisherman to switch before he sends in his next pokemon...

Mizu's panting a little while Nathan's thinking.  This is why she exactly why tended to avoid the bigger aquatic pokemon in her home.  She just wasn't strong enough to beat them before they could beat her...admittedly, though, she's doing a lot better than she usually does whenever they end up fighting her, and she's even a little surprised herself.  Maybe Wrap was a bad idea while she was Paralyzed, though.  At least she managed to dissuade him from trying Hypnosis again, though!  Hah!

Nathan decides to gamble on something.

"Mizu, see if you can outlast him.  We're faster.  If we can outlast him, we can win this matchup."

We'll have 4 Actions this Round.  If Poliwrath attacks, Mizu will attempt to Evade it.  If Poliwrath is out of actions or gets back up, she'll Dragon Rage.

Evade: 13 - 2 Pain - 4/5/6/7 = 7/6/5/4 D6

Dragon Rage
Acc: 7/6/5/4 D6
Dmg: still 2

This is her best shot at winning this matchup since Poli got lucky on those damage rolls: exploiting her greater speed since she's no longer Paralyzed!  Let's see if she can pull it off...
