Deoxys faints! Arete descends, hunched protectively over the body.

With the battle won, the war begins.

Cosh moves the Ancient Power buff to Gustav for better chances to flinch.
Spira doesn't have to spend that Will Point.
All items get used as requested.
Neura and Arete chew down one Deoxys.

Ultra Ball: (4)(1)(6)(4) v (6)(1)(2)(2)(1)(6) (3)(4)(2)(3) Gotcha! Deoxys clone was caught!
Cosh: "Holy shit."

Light Screen goes up.
I think we'll use the Tall Grass to determine Nature Power, since that legendary power oughta trump everything else.
Sunny Day goes up, and with it, Flower Gift.

Cosh works on the Antenna some more, and finally gets it to load Kelda's Sheer Cold spell after extracting Terra's Will determination. He trains it on the approaching points of light, just in case. The Speed Deoxys are approaching too, holding huge chunks of spiky rubble and surrounding your battlefield in writhing Tall Grass. Some of the smaller Pokemon flee as Deoxys lowers his mental control. The bigger ones are brought to the battlefield.
"Good idea, Terra! Looks like it will work!"

Swords Dance goes up on Gustav and Lancelot.
The Frozen Roar can go to help Cosh in his work.

Lucky Chant is up.
Swords Dance is up.
Double Team is up.
Calm Mind is up.

Agility is up.
Sticky Web is up, though Grid can't get it high enough to hit the approaching Deoxys. It'll affect the terrestrial Pokemon, though.

The black-gemmed Deoxys releases a fleet of MSC crystals. Clefable, two Tyranitar, a flying Garchomp, a Goodra. Through the grass, more common but still large Pokemon come stomping. 2 Aggron, a rare Tandorian Nimflora, a Terlard. Five Tauros. Probopass. A fleet of Graveler and a couple Machamp. They all tear through the Tall Grass to get at you.

None of those are as dangerous as the troop of Deoxys, abandoning their experiments to respond to the threat of the Artifacts. They leap through the air and fall from the sky like miniature meteors. There are now two with black gems, a full dozen with white gems and surrounded by their own Stealth Rocks, and three slower Defense Forme Deoxys coming up behind. The rainbow gemmed Deoxys is no longer visible.

The twinkling lights grow bigger. Ahead of them, Kelda comes streaking onto the battlefield. Her speed makes you concerned about what might be approaching. The Deoxys are all flashing their gems in communication, apparently something urgent if the speed of their glimmering is any indication.

Just as the Speedy clones reach you, Kelda flashes back down to the battlefield with her arms raised above her head in a sign of victory. She raises another Ancient Power, huge pillars of Skull Ruins stone leaping up to form gigantic arches in imitation of her upraised fists. Between the arches come spiraling red and blue coils, a double helix of color which eventually resolves itself into two jetlike dragon Pokemon. They fly ahead of a trail of mist which rolls into a giant manlike figure striding behind them, sparkling with rainbows from Sunny Day. They fly like two excited lovers separated for eons. They fly like the arrival of hope.

Hope fills your bodies like a tangible thing, a quickening of the blood. The purple light has disappeared, but the approaching terrestrial Pokemon are slowing as if their control has been contested. Nathan, you notice that the Scimitars are a little disoriented as well, but your party seems just fine.

Latios and Latias begin herding the Deoxys clones like Herdier. The Deoxys try everything on them - trapping them in MSC crystals, strangling them with Tall Grass, hurling debris, but it's to no avail. Of the twenty Deoxys clones, only nine make it to your position, along with a Tyranitar and a Goodra. They shift into Defense, Attack, and Speed Formes evenly.

Terra grimaced as his 2nd Ultra Ball broke against the Normal clone, but it swiftly turned into a disturbingly savage grin as it got utterly bltized by his friends and at long last brought down. Not one to let an opportunity like that be squandered, he seizes, leaping forward towards it and lobbing his 3rd Ultra Ball at it with the force of a Bullet Punch behind it, smashing it into the clone's supple form and deforming it from the impact, before the space scourge is sucked right in. He waited with baited, narrowed eyes, and a sharp frown as he watched the Ball rock back and forth.....until it let out a loud *Ping!*, signaling he caught it, bring that all too uncanny and ferocious grin back as he scooped it right and stared at it with defiant triumph.

"You're mine now, Deoxys."

With that bold declaration, the sagely monk sent the super space virus to his PC and reached down to pat Arete on the head with a great deal of affection, both for guarding his catch and doing a terrific job of eating the other clones. He's certainly going to be rewarding her amply after DEOXYS and its clone army is taken out once and for all.

Cosh's short but succinct remark about his Capture manages to snap him out of his celebratory mood, causing him to turn to his archmage partner with an admonishing frown.

"Language, Cosh." 

Even in the midst of a epic life or death struggle, Terra still has the presence of mind to chastise others for swearing. Maybe his momma raised him too right if that's an automatic action, but hey, it's not the worst trait to have, right?

Of course, this silly moment can't last, as everyone soon rushes to prepare for the next wave of clones and whatever else they bring. If it's possible (And Capturing the Deoxys clone didn't take all his 'free time') Terra will use his last Hyper Potion to full heal Genie, as Potion Effectiveness would make it restore only 4 HP as opposed to 8 but it would still manage to fully restore her HP regardless. Otherwise, he'll save it for the beginning of the next Round. When the master wizard confirms his earlier plan is going smoothly, he flashes them that grin and a thumbs up to show just how pleased he is to hear that! That spacefayering swarm won't know what hit them!

Seeing everyone ready and willing to Fight against the clones fills him again with great pride and burning resolve, which is not dampened in the least when they came, and in greater numbers than ever before. He grit his teeth and glowered like a judge sentencing a convict, and readied himself to give his all and struggle fiercely against them......!

Then came Kelda with her Ancient Power Fists. Then came Latias and Latios in their full jubilant glory, taking his breath away. Their spender, the beauty they create, the power and grace they use against the Deoxys clones.....it was magnificent. Truly magnificent.

The moment soon passed as they corralled away a significant chunk of the clones and their accompanying slaves, but it's impact remained in Terra's heart, as he was more DETERMINED than ever to see the threat of DEOXYS end, as he pointed at the horde of baddies and rallied his partners forward to victory!

"Genie, Rock Slides on Defense Clones, Tyranitar, Goodra, and one of the Attack Clones! Arete, kill and eat the Attack Clones! DESTROY THEM ALL!!"

Orders: Give a Hyper Potion to Genie either prior to the Round or at the start of it, then have her use Rock Slide five times on the 3 Defense Clones, the Tyranitar, Goodra, (To hopefully Flinched them, so as not to give us or Shiva trouble - Terra and Genie are looking out for the fae lady!) and one of the Attack Clones [i]if Nathan/Dragonstrike decides to take them out first. If he/they go after the Defense Clones first, Genie will target the three Attack Form Clones along with Tyranitar, Goodra, and a Speed Clone instead. Arete will play clean up with either Fury Cutters on the last remaining Attack Clone (If it's at 1/2 HP and none of the others are unFainted) or spread out her/their Fury Cutters across the three Attack Clones if multiple ones are left with 1 HP (If Gallade couldn't finish them off). If she/they has any Actions afterwards, she/they will start eating the Attack Form clones. If Nathan goes after the Defense Clones to mince them up first, though, Arete will finish the remaining off should Gallade not get to it, and just eat them all with her Actions before Fury Cuttering the weakest Attack/Speed Form Clone she can get at. Should the Hyper Potion not be used at the start of the Round and either Genie or Arete suffers from PD Damage, they'll get a Max Potion, with Arete being the priority target if both are wounded. 3rd Stage of the epic battle is about to start, so let's get ready to rrrruuuuummmmbbbbllllleeee!
