VS Shadow Landorus
(Snom and Rolycoly are already behind cover, so they'll both only do a single action each)
With a sweep of his cape, Mega Gallade begins chanting a vow of protection anew!
Mega Gallade's Lucky Chant 1
4 Special + 5 Contest + 5 Perform - 2 Actions = 12d6
(4)(3)(2)(2)(2)(4)(5)(4)(1)(6)(3)(2)
The party is protected from bad luck by a lucky chant!
Landorus bellows, and everyone can feel his presence encompassing the battlefield as an immense pressure!
Gravity 1
4 Special + 4 Fight + 4 Channel - 2 Actions - 1 Pain = 9d6
(6)(4)(2)(6)(6)(3)(3)(1)(3)
Gravity intensifies! All accuracy pools ignore innate inaccuracy, and airborne pokemon become grounded!
Platina plummets out of the air as Landorus's control over the land completely dominates any airborne superiority she had up until this point. Struggling to stand, she tries to blast the also now grounded genie with her dragon fire once more.
Dragon Rage 1
(6)(6)(2)(3)
The massive sand shroud blocks the attack completely!
Landorus doesn't even turn to look at Platina. The barrier protecting him is far stronger this time.
The party begins to take potshots at Landorus, hoping to break through the renewed barrier.

Landorus is surrounded by swirling fire!
As Braixen pokes her head out from behind cover to attack Landorus, Kee pokes his head behind that same cover to try and charm her into letting an injured pokemon take the spot instead.
Kee Finds Cover 1?
3 Cool + 1 Contest + 0 Allure - 2 Pain - 2 Actions = 0d6
Unfortunately, Kee's attempts to hide the pain with a smile isn't as charming as he'd like it to be, and Braixen just shakes her head. "Sorry, but I kinda don't have much in the way of supplies. I'd feel a lot safer behind this rock, especially since Landorus is throwing actual rocks."
Life Dew (Karen) 1
(5)
Karen, Rolycoly, and Kee are all slowly recovering HP!
Karen spends another Will Point after using this move!
Kogeki tries to take cover as well, but instead of a healthy and somewhat reckless Braixen, he has to try and convince a very timid Bug type to trade places with him.
Kogeki Finds Cover 1?
3 Cool + 2 Contest + 0 Etiquette - 1 Pain - 2 Actions = 2d6
(4)(1)
Kogeki, burned and hurt as he is, makes a convincing case for letting him hide behind the cover. However, Snom takes one look at the rocks that Landorus is starting to pick up and very adamantly shakes her head no. She's clearly terrified of getting crushed by those boulders. (Kogeki needed two successes)
Especially since she's about to attack Landorus and hit his biggest weakness!
Powder Snow
(5)(5)(1)(2)(3)(3)(2)
The massive sand shroud nullifies the attack!
Landorus doesn't even blink. Mortal pokemon are beneath him.
"Hey, big guy! Over here!"
He turns, no expression on his face as he stares at the tiny pokemon covered in all manner of rings and gaudy accessories.
"You want a fight? Well, here you go! One fight coming right up!"
Summon Pokemon 1
Hoopa throws one of their rings, and it expands until it's as big as Landorus! That familiar purple energy begins swirling in it, and out of it comes...
...the scent of wet grass after a rainy day? For such a hectic battle, the smell is weirdly comforting...
And then a pink colored hand reaches out of the portal, followed by an arm. A brown snake covered in heart shaped patterns winds around it, their coiled tail wrapped around a torso.
As the pokemon emerges from the portal, she lovingly scratches the head of her darling pet, and it coils around her torso even tighter as she looks straight at Landorus.
"Black really is not your color, dear."
She snaps her fingers, and the scent of Spring wafts through the area as Landorus is buffeted by a powerful windstorm!
Springtide Storm 1
3 Dex + 4 Fight + 4 Channel - 2 Actions - 2 Inaccuracy = 9d6
(4)(6)(1)(3)(2)(6)(1)(1)(2)
Hoopa's power lets Enamorus's attack ignore Landorus's barrier!
4 Power + 4 Special + STAB - 3 Sp Def = 6d6
(1)(1)(1)(6)(4)(6)
Landorus takes 3 damage!
The massive sand shroud takes 2 PDD! (One from Hoopa's involvement, one from Enamorus's attack!)
23/60 HP -1 Pain
Total PDD: 4
(6)(6)(5)
Enamorus's Strength, Defense, Special, and Sp Defense all increase by 1!
Landorus recoils from the blow, while Enamorus only seems to look lovelier as she gives him and the party a small grin. "You took your sweet time to call me, dearies. Ah well, no matter. You seem to have managed well enough up until now. Now that I am here though, let us free my beloved home from this oppressive, ugly darkness."
As she prepares for combat properly, raindrops begin to appear around her, swirling around her body in the protective embrace of a gentle wind. Rolycoly is startled as the unlit runes on the rock he's hiding behind suddenly flare to life, accompanied by a swirl of raindrops on a gentle Spring breeze that surrounds the stone.
*rolls*

Gallade looks at the party, assessing who's the most injured. Noting that Kogeki is still burned, he opts to heal the Riolu!

6 Insight + 5 Fight + 4 Channel - 4 Actions = 11d6
(6)(1)(3)(2)(3)(6)(1)(3)(6)(1)(4)
(5)(5)(5)
Kogeki recovers 3 HP! 5/5 HP
"Get back in the fight! We need you to break that barrier!"
Landorus's attention is now squarely on Enamorus, though he also casts sideways glances at Braixen, Daxter, and Hoopa.
He doesn't say a word. He simply picks up some large boulders and throws them directly at all four as hard as he can.
Rock Slide 2 on Enamorus, Braixen, Daxter, and Hoopa
4 Dex + 4 Fight + 4 Channel - 1 Inaccuracy - 1 Pain - 4 Actions = 7d6

The shroud of rain takes 1 PDD! 2/3 Plot HP
Braixen takes 1 damage! 4/5 HP
Daxter takes 1 damage! 4/6 HP -1 Pain
Hoopa takes 1 damage! 5/6 HP
Braixen cowers behind the rock as the force of the boulder thrown at her scrapes past her cover, kicking up dust and grazing the tip of her tail. Kee jumps as well, finding himself almost in the line of fire of that attack.
The assault continues, to varying degrees of success as the humans and legendaries try to break down Landorus's protection before Landorus can break them!

The attack explodes against the massive shroud of sand, dealing no damage! However, Karen's Life Dew distills some of the barrier, dealing 1 PDD!

Kogeki tries to focus. He's burned, but no longer in immediate pain thanks to Gallade. His allies are doing barely any damage to Landorus. If he doesn't get his act together, they could be in serious danger. He has to land this attack.
One shot. One hit.
Kunai Throw 2
(4)(4)(2)
Unlike the Blast Wand, Kogeki's Kunai is human in origin, so it pierces the barrier and deals 1 PDD.
Total PDD: 10
The thrown Kunai almost seems to stick into the barrier surrounding Landorus. The genie looks down indifferently at the blade that very nearly managed to make contact with his physical form.
And then the barrier suddenly explodes, and the sandstorm intensifies!
For a moment, nobody can see anything. They need to cover their eyes as they get pelted by a huge volume of sand. Everyone that isn't behind cover or Rock, Ground, or Steel type takes 1 damage (Enamorus exempted because her barrier is still intact).
Mega Gallade takes 1 damage 8/10 HP -1 Pain
Daxter takes 1 damage 3/6 HP -2 Pain
Rowlet takes 1 damage 4/5 HP
Kee takes 1 damage 1/4 HP -3 Pain
Karen takes 1 damage 2/5 HP -2 Pain
Kogeki takes 1 damage 4/5 HP
Hoopa takes 1 damage 3/5 HP -1 Pain
When the sand clears and everyone can see again, they see Landorus clutching at his head in pain, the shadows continuing to spark up and down his body as he struggles to resist their influence.
"Grrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaauuuuuugggggggghhhhhhh! Help...me...it's too...strong..."
"Hehehe~! With pleasure! So long as you're okay with us defending ourselves in the meantime~."

Landorus takes 3 damage!
20/60 HP -2 Pain
Landorus continues clutching at his head in pain as Hoopa's mental assault deals a significant blow to the Legendary pokemon!
"And now it is my turn! This injustice ends now!"
Mega Gallade runs up to Landorus, frost accumulating on one of his blades!
Mega Gallade's Ice Punch 3

Landorus takes 9 damage!!!!
11/60 HP -2 Pain
Landorus is sent flying by a single solid blow from Mega Gallade! The Scorching Summer crashes into the pillar representing his season, cracking it and startling Snom and Kogeki! Landorus pushes himself up, just barely managing to force himself upright against the increased pull of gravity.
"You...will...regret that!!!!"
Landorus punches the ground, and the soil underneath Gallade explodes with the full fury of the Legendary pokemon!
Earth Power 3

Mega Gallade takes 2 damage!
6/10 HP -1 Pain
Gallade is completely covered by a dust cloud when the ground explodes, but when the dust clears, he's still standing. He's looking rather bruised, his once spotless white cape now covered in dirt and mud, but he's still in fighting form!
With Landorus down and vulnerable, Platina is finally able to run up to him and smack him with her steel feathered wings!
Steel Wing 3
(2)(1)
...however, unused to having to actually walk due to the increased gravity, she trips and falls instead.
Daxter isn't far behind though!
Scratch 3
(5)
(5)
Landorus takes 1 damage
10/60 HP -3 Pain
It's only a tiny little scratch, barely enough to actually cause any kind of harm, but it's enough to cause Landorus to recoil in pain as the shadows crackle along his body once again.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!"
He reacts immediately, reforming his defensive sand shroud, then clapping his hands together.
"I'm...sorry...I can't...control it!!!"
As Landorus pulls his hands apart, everyone can see that he's once again accumulating power for his devastating Shadow Sandsear attack.
Enamorus tsks in disappointment. "Well, I suppose we just have to finish this the hard way, then."
Completely unafraid, she floats right up to Landorus and kisses him on the cheek.
Draining Kiss 3

(6)(6)(4)(4)(4)(6)(4)(2)(4)(4) | (3)(1)
Landorus takes 9 damage!
1/60 HP -3 Pain
Gallade nearly fells Landorus with a single blow! (and as such, I'm not going to roll out the rest of the Round! You guys easily have this covered at this point) The extreme power of the attack completely breaks Landorus's concentration, and the genie collapses. His muscles spasm as the shadows spark up and down his arms one last time before completely fading, and the dark shadows leave his body, rising up into the air towards the dark storm overhead. Sand and heat begin swirling around Landorus's shrine once more as the shadows surrounding it dissipate.
Landorus holds up a shaky hand as he struggles to right himself. "No...more. No more. The deed...is done."
Everyone gets 30 experience and 2 Will Points for defeating Landorus!
(Snom and Rolycoly are already behind cover, so they'll both only do a single action each)
With a sweep of his cape, Mega Gallade begins chanting a vow of protection anew!

Kee Finds Cover 1?
3 Cool + 1 Contest + 0 Allure - 2 Pain - 2 Actions = 0d6
Unfortunately, Kee's attempts to hide the pain with a smile isn't as charming as he'd like it to be, and Braixen just shakes her head. "Sorry, but I kinda don't have much in the way of supplies. I'd feel a lot safer behind this rock, especially since Landorus is throwing actual rocks."

With Landorus down and vulnerable, Platina is finally able to run up to him and smack him with her steel feathered wings!
Steel Wing 3

...however, unused to having to actually walk due to the increased gravity, she trips and falls instead.
Daxter isn't far behind though!

Landorus takes 1 damage
10/60 HP -3 Pain
It's only a tiny little scratch, barely enough to actually cause any kind of harm, but it's enough to cause Landorus to recoil in pain as the shadows crackle along his body once again.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!"
He reacts immediately, reforming his defensive sand shroud, then clapping his hands together.
"I'm...sorry...I can't...control it!!!"
As Landorus pulls his hands apart, everyone can see that he's once again accumulating power for his devastating Shadow Sandsear attack.
Enamorus tsks in disappointment. "Well, I suppose we just have to finish this the hard way, then."
Completely unafraid, she floats right up to Landorus and kisses him on the cheek.

1/60 HP -3 Pain
Gallade nearly fells Landorus with a single blow! (and as such, I'm not going to roll out the rest of the Round! You guys easily have this covered at this point) The extreme power of the attack completely breaks Landorus's concentration, and the genie collapses. His muscles spasm as the shadows spark up and down his arms one last time before completely fading, and the dark shadows leave his body, rising up into the air towards the dark storm overhead. Sand and heat begin swirling around Landorus's shrine once more as the shadows surrounding it dissipate.
Landorus holds up a shaky hand as he struggles to right himself. "No...more. No more. The deed...is done."
Everyone gets 30 experience and 2 Will Points for defeating Landorus!
Enamorus floats over and grabs his arm to help pick him up. "Those shadows really did a number on you, my dear. Are you sure you're alright?"
"I will...be fine. I'm just glad...they didn't get you as well."
Enamorus leans Landorus against the shrine, then looks back towards the party. "Well, I'd say you've done us a great service this day. Freeing all three of my counterparts from the grip of this shadowy force. I think that deserves a reward~." She winks and blows everyone a kiss.
...and then a bright burst of light appears in the middle of the clearing! Once the light recedes, a strange rectangular, sky blue tablet is hovering in the air.

Landorus stares aghast first at the tablet, and then at Enamorus. "...Enamorus, you can't possibly mean to give them the sacred artifact we were charged with protecting! You know what it is capable of!"
Enamorus merely turns back to Landorus and looks skyward, towards the storm still brewing overhead. "These are strange times, dear Landorus. Humans walk among pokemon as pokemon once more. A dark shadow is threatening to engulf everything we know and love. If there was ever a time to entrust the Sky Plate's power to mortals, it is now."
Landorus grunts in disapproval initially, looking over the party of pokemon standing before him. Then he sighs. "...I am in no state to disagree, unfortunately. You there. Bird pokemon with the heritage of dragons. Stand before the Sky Plate. And take its power for your own. You will likely need it for whatever trials are in your future."
