VS Vicky Round 1

Detect 1
(6)(4)(1)(1)(4)(6)(2)(2)
Diam protects herself!

Vicky's pokemon spend their first set of actions setting up as well!

Hone Claws 1
1 Spe + 3 Fight + 3 Brawl - 2 Act = 5 D6
(6)(2)(1)(3)(3)
+1 Strength and Accuracy for Felunge!

Beethoven starts scheming from the relative safety of being behind Diam.

Nasty Plot 1
(5)(5)(1)(1)(4)(3)(2)
+2 Special for Beethoven!

Sandstorm 1
3 Spe + 3 Sur + 1 Nature - 2 = 5
(2)(4)(2)(1)(2)
A Sandstorm brewed!  Drilgann looks like it's a lot faster now, too! +2 Dex (it shouldn't be weaker than Chlorophyll and Swift Swim, imo, even if it does give you an immunity to Sandstorm damage)

Everybody's set up now, so now the damage starts flying!  Starting with Felunge!

Beethoven is the same size as Diam but has a giant gemstone to hide behind and dodge around, and he's faster than Felunge is.  However, he is trying to hide from a melee attack instead of a ranged one, so he'll only get the -2 reduction from Half Cover instead of a -3 from Full Cover.

Slash 2
4 + 3 + 3 + 1 - 4 = 7 D6
(5)(3)(2)(5)(3)(3)(4)
4* + 3 + STAB - 2 - 2 = 4 D6
(1)(2)(5)(4) Beethoven takes 2 damage! 4/6 HP -1 Pain
Diam is immune to Normal type damage.

Even in this sandstorm, Beethoven's still faster than that mole! (5 Dex versus 4*).  And he makes sure that everyone knows it!

B O O M B U R S T ! ! ! 2
(6)(3)(2)(2)(5)(6)(1)
Felunge has 3 Sp Def, Drilgann has 4
(6)(3)(2)(1)(5)(6)(4)(5)(4)(6)(1), (1)
Felunge takes 6 damage! 2/8 HP -2 Pain
Drilgann takes 6 damage! 5/11 HP -2 Pain
It doesn't affect Diam...

Drilgann tries to strike both of its foes at once!  Beethoven cowers behind Diam, getting the benefit of full cover for this ranged attack!

Rock Slide 2
4* + 4 + 2 - 1 - 2 - 4 = 3 D6
(5)(1)(3)
3 + 3 - 5 = 1 D6 + 1
(4)
Diam takes 1 damage! 7/8 HP
Beethoven takes 2 damage! 2/6 HP -2 Pain
(3)(1)(4)
(3)(5)(5)

Diam retaliates!  KABOOM!

Metal Burst 2
(3)(6)(4)
(6)(4)(6) Drilgann takes 3 damage! 2/11 HP -2 Pain

Feint Attack 3
10 + 1 - 2 - 6 = 3 D6
(5)(2)(4)
2 + 4* - 2 - 2 Cover = 2 D6
(3)(2) Beethoven takes 0 damage.
(1)(3) Diam takes no damage as well!

Time for the birdy to end this with a good ol' yell!  Unlike Diam, Pain doesn't bother him at all during battle! (and Diam absolutely loathes the fact that she's able to be robbed of her third action so easily simply by taking one or two blows)

Hyper Voice 3
(1)(6)(4)(1)(5)
(6)(4)(3)(1)(2)(5)(1), (2) 
Felunge takes 2 damage and faints!
Drilgann takes 2 damage and faints!

Rising Star Vicky has been defeated!

"...awwww man...good strategy, dude...I'll have to try and figure out if I can use that method myself...anyways, guess I owe ya this."


Randolph obtains a Rocky Helmet!  He also gets $2000!

"You make sure to put that helmet to good use, yeah?  I didn't go crawling through the tunnels of Tandor's Victory Road looking for that item for nothing! Oh, and the cash? Consider that a bonus since you impressed me."

Diam, Beethoven, and Randolph gain 5 exp each.

Good job!  If it weren't for that Cover Diam was providing, that fight would have been a lot harder!
