Destiny is out and doing great. She just gracefully dodged the opposing Dragonite's Thunder Wave.

Your inner doubt, Dark Kat, has surfaced. But screw her! You won't let your self-doubt trip you up. You owe it to your Pokemon not to let that happen

You do a quick mental checklist to regain our focus.

Ancalagon (Garchomp) - Out
Saphira (Dragonite) - Damaged
Desghidorah (Noivern) - Out
Rhaegal (Salamence)
Fin Fang Foom (Tyrantrum)
Shenron (Flygon)
Altaria (Altaria)

The only Pokemon of yours to suffer a knockout is Aria.

The arena is balanced. There are a few small ponds here and there, two remaining small bushy and tree-filled areas that are good for hiding in, and two rocky areas near each battler.

Destiny is in the pond that has a covering of leafs. If she were to dive, she’d have visual cover.

That Dragonite seems to be pretty beefy. Like all of Geno’s Pokemon, it’s also very fast and excellent at landing critical hits.

Ok, I think we're good, the pastebin said dodge on an 8+.

Wonder if we fully avoided the impact of a 100 roll just by successfully dodging. It makes some sense but at the same time I know we'd be salty as fuck if the roles were switched here, haha.

>>47240363
We also have the crit negation training. So it will probably be a normal hit or something along those lines.

Should also point out Ice Beam has a 10% freeze chance...

>>47240384
Oh, that's right. Can't freeze 'em all I guess?

>>47240384
Yeah, but with 3 dice the probability tables go up, I think we need a 94 to crit.

“Ice Beam! Let them have it!” Destiny jumps at the command.

But Geno interjects. He’s done playing around. “Destroy everything! Draco Meteor!” He looks to you and Destiny. It’s not an angry glare, but the look of a predator that’s found a competitor instead of just more prey. “There’s no avoiding this!“

A rushing sound comes from above. The sky darkens, but there aren’t really any clouds. Meteors swarm down and start smashing into the arena. Crashes and explosions light up the field and you quickly lose sight of Destiny. Dozens of Mr.Mimes do their best with barriers to contain it.

You hear the announcers hyping the audience.

The arena turns into a flashing nightmare of purple and red. The explosions press against the barriers like window panes. Geno loses his composure just a bit as he encourages Saphira to keep it going.

Finally, after what feels like an eternity, the cosmic dragon storm dies down.

Geno and his Dragonite smirk almost in sync. “I’m sorry Kat, but-”

A beam pierces through the clouds of dust and hits Saphira dead on, coating it in ice. It comes crashing down ungracefully.

“What!”

“Unbelievable, Chip! This is unbelievable!”

A gust of wind whips away the obscuring clouds. Destiny sits on the edge of one of many craters. Saphira struggles to move in it’s icey container.

Destiny breathes heavily, exhausted. She must have been moving like crazy. She looks entirely untouched from the attack.

“Good job, Destiny!”

A single bubble is all she can manage, but she smiles.

The arena is a mess of craters and impact areas. The grassy areas and ponds and some rocks have amalgamated into a muddy sludge in several places, including a large pit in the center.

“Saphira! We’ve trained for this! Remember!” It looks badly hurt. You’re impressed that it’s sticking it out.

So which new starter is your favorite so far Gobble

>>47240986
Crits are 95+ I'm pretty sure.

>>47240991
Personally I prefer the Fire one but I'm pretty meh on all of them. Nothing horrendous but definitely nothing great.

>>47240995
94+, we missed it by one last thread which led to Aria getting hurt.

>>47241030
That was actually because of the 1 we rolled.

>>47240991
>>47241020
I like the Owl personally

>>47241045
Rowlet is best Gen 7 starter.

No dodge roll apparently so I guess Saphira didn't manage an attack at least.

>>47241092
Or maybe a crit was an auto evade?

>>47241114
Usually our roll for a move and our opponent's roll for a move are strictly separate though. Except if one pokemon is KO'd sometimes.

>>47241039
My point was that we would have scored the KO early and wouldn't have been in that situation if we'd gotten the crit then.

Saphira struggles against the ice. It cracks and creaks, but she’s not out quite yet.

“Destiny! Shell Smash!”

Destiny pushes aside her exhaustion and uses Shell Smash. You’re no expert on these types of moves, but you can tell from watching her that she’s gotten a good groove going with it. She’ll be faster and stronger than ever!

You just need to make sure she doesn’t get hit.

Saphira’s ice starts sliding into the muck by a few inches.

Geno narrows his eyes. He’s considering something. Or planning something. Either way, you don’t like that look.

WHY CAN I NOT ROLL?!

>>47241419
In our defense, with Dragonite frozen and on the verge of a KO it made sense to try to build momentum going forward.

Crit negation training will save the day, r-right?

I'm gonna call bullshit if Destiny gets knocked out. At this point she's 2x boosted against a Dragonite that got slammed with two powerful Icebeams.

We're faster and stronger by far, any move used should knock it out, damn the rolls.

>>47241519
Might not be enough, considering Destiny's defenses were just sacrificed for Attack and Sp.Attack.

>>47241527
>>47241536
It really depends on the Crit Shell Smash and what it gave us.

>>47241527
But to get those buffs, we got lost our defense and all his pokes are trained for crits.

>>47241527
We weakened her defenses, did we not? If it's an effective move...

>>47241561
Really the only move that would let it go faster is Extreme Speed, but I'm not really sure it would KO her with our training even with the lowered defense.

>>47241551
>>47241559
>>47241561
On the other hand, the speed boost shell smash gives is obscene.

We're going first no question.

Next move should be Rain Dance though.

>>47241536
>>47241551
>>47241559
>>47241561

Destiny's SP ATK is already high, this just turbo charged it, Dragonite is gone.

Unless he used extreme speed, then we could probably take one hit unboosted from that move.

>>47241594
If we take out Dragonite we should just go all out offensive. Nothing remaining on his team wants to take an ice beam and has multiscale.

>>47241633
This pretty much, Destiny is on curbstomp mode right now.

>>47241572
Extreme Speed is a pretty powerful move, and critted like that, it might be enough.

What'll happen is she'll be pushed into the critical zone and you guys will probably vote to push her past her limit again.

“Destiny, use Scald and-”

“Now Salphira!”

Dragonite bursts out of the ice, sending shards everywhere. Destiny tries to dodge but ends up struck by a small piece of ice that throws her off balance. You reflexively shield your eyes. Extreme Speed hits her hard, sending her spinning up.

Destiny evens out and blasts him with a scalding hot torrent. The smirk is wiped off of it’s face as it covers with it’s arms in vain. Despite being a Dragon type and fairly strong, it’s just too much to handle. The shift from cold to hot and beating that it’s taken force it to go down. The muck looks warm, but not boiling or anything.

A flag rises up. “Saphira is unable to battle.”

There’s a cheer from the crowd, and some murmuring.

“Impressive work from the challenger.”

“That’s right, Chip. Geno will have to go all out to get the advantage.”

Destiny is in rough shape. Your critical hit negation training only really serves to even the odds against Geno, not make your Pokemon immune. Heck, even a regular Pokemon could get lucky one in a hundred times. Her dodging won’t be as effective without a breather, and most hits will do her in, but she’s an offensive powerhouse right now.

“Rhaegal!” Geno’s voice bellows. “Claim back this battle!” He throws out his Salamence. It’s ability is Intimidate. Destiny flinches for half a second before dismissing her fear.

You’re getting a new sense from her. That dragon type of feeling that she’s always lacked. A ferocity and need to dominate her surroundings. It’s faint and distant, but it’s there. She bubbles, but it’s not a happy-go-lucky bubble. It reminds you of a pit fighter spitting.

“Think she’s past her limits?” Dark Kat asks from her stupid smug face.

You’re afraid of that. You don’t get that sense from her, but it’s hard to tell with her. You can’t see any evidence of it, but you’d be lying if you said you were sure.

“She’s fine,” you tell Dark Kat anyway. “I'm sure.” You shake her away. She’s just messing with you. You have no reason to believe anything bad will happen. It’s just nerves from Aria.

>Ice Beam! Maybe you can one-shot it.
The way I see it, there's no way we don't go first, and even if we don't one-shot it this will do so much damage to one of his more intimidating pokemon that it's worth the theoretical trade-off.

>>47241917

[Going to call a 5 minute, quote only vote.

Destiny is a tap away from being KO'd, but also has incredible offensive potential right now. Switching out will get rid of her stat changes. Salamance is four times weak to ice moves. As far as you know, Salamance has no priority moves.

Will you switch Destiny, or attack with Ice Beam?]

Destiny moves with unbelievable speed. She fires a thick, wide Ice Beam that nails Salamence. It’s a little sloppy technique-wise, but with her very strong Shell Smash in effect, it’s got plenty of power.

Salamence powers through the blast, trying it’s best to maintain it’s momentum. It’s a suicide attack.

But it just isn’t enough. Destiny’s offensive power and Ice Beam are too much, even for this mighty ruler of the skies. It flies down to the ground, simply unable to deal with the raw power of the situation.

“Rhaegal is unable to battle.”

Geno looks heartbroken. He’s mumbling something. You can almost read his lips. Something about phonetic engineering versus spirit.

“It’s spirit that matters, isn't it? Then we’ll show you ours. Fin Fang Foom! Destroy all that stands in your way!” He sends out his Tyrantrum. It is absolutely nothing like Nibbles. He looks much older, experienced, and grizzled. It’s eyes dart around like an old war vet sizing up the situation.

Destiny’s chest heaves and she wobbles a bit. She balances herself and leaks more bubbles.

Come on guys, this isn't perma injury stage yet, just let her rest and try to dodge for a bit. If she takes damage she'll be switching out anyways.

>>47242900
We really should try saving her for the other Pokemon weaker to ice.

>>47242908
But she won't have Shell Smash anymore, and another Shell Smash would -definitely- push her into the crippling range.

>>47242931
Well I just noticed he is down to 2 Pokemon, but she is also our fastest Pokemon and can be used to revenge KO something.

You decide to swap. Destiny is reaching her limit. You move quick and think about who to put in her place.

>Zappy Dan (Magnezone)
>Destiny (Kingdra) - Fighting
>Fel (Butterfree)
>Oberon (Garchomp)
>Nibbles (Tyrantrum)

>>47242931
Actually that might be a reason to swap her out. If Shell Smash ends, her defense resets back to normal and thus might be able to better handle a hit?

>>47242931
If explosion can be justified as good occasionally, then just consider Shell Smash as just molting off dead skin and hide quickly.

At the exact same time as you retrieve Destiny, you hear Geno issuing his command. “Dragon Dance!”

Geno looks relieved and emboldened. “Interesting and as I predicted. You do have the limits of how far you’ll push. Is that cowardice, wisdom, or something else? Will you resent your Kingdra if protecting her means losing the initiative, and therefore the battle?” You can tell he was taking a risk from the tone of his voice, even if he’s trying to hide it. He wasn’t certain you’d pull back Destiny, but he was betting on it.

His Tyrantrum pulls off the dance as Nibbles comes out. He roars at Nibbles. It’s deep and strong.

Nibbles roars back. Its...not as intimidating. Still, he has spirit. And he seems to do his best when at a disadvantage.

“And what an interesting matchup.”

“That’s right Chip. But the smart money is on the specialist, when it comes to a mirror match. Geno might be able to take advantage of this to turn the battle around.”

“Maybe so, but if we’ve learned anything from this year’s tournament, it’s that with Kat and Robin, there are always surprises.”

>Bite, use those jaws!
>Roar, that’ll teach him to Dragon Dance
>Stealth Rock, make sure his next Pokemon gets hit
>Stomp. If he rushes you, maybe Nibbles can kick out his leg unexpectedly
>Charm, lower its attack
>Dragon Dance, even the odds
>Crunch, you might lower its defence
>Thunder Fang, might paralyze
>Poison Fang, might poison
>Earthquake, he’s weak to ot
>Rock Slide
>Fire Fang. It’s unfinished, but a burn would be really handy
>Protect, let him get tired trying to hit you.
>Something else

>>47243197
>Roar, that’ll teach him to Dragon Dance

>>47243197

We are the most annoying challenger in the League. Let's remind Geno of this fact.

>>47243197
>>Roar, that’ll teach him to Dragon Dance

>>47243197

Don't forget that he's faster than us right now due to dragon dance.

Roar is a lower priority move either way

“Earthquake!”

“Roar!”

Geno grimaces.

His Pokemon performs well. It’s a textbook example of Earthquake by a powerful Pokemon and it knocks Nibbles right over and hits very hard.

But Nibbles is tough. Very tough. He pushes himself up. Instead of his more cute roar, he screams primal fury at his opponent, forcing it back.

“Resist!” Geno demands. But Nibbles is ferocious. You get the feeling that if he wasn’t on his game, he’d have wasted the effort in trying to scare that Tyrantrum.

It runs back, getting replaced with Alteria.

“Very well,” Geno says. “I feel this is only appropriate. Alteria. Let’s show...let’s show the strength our bonds, old friend.”

Altaria doesn’t look like the others. It lacks that professional coldness. It’s excited to be here with it’s partner.

It’s ability is Natural Cure.

Nibbles is hurt. He`s not a light breeze away from falling over like Destiny, but he wouldn't be able to take a second Earthquake like the one he just had.

Nibble stands in the muck. You take comfort in the fact that he`s trained for difficult terrain like this.

>Bite, use those jaws and bring it down.
>Roar again. Be a bitch
>Stealth Rock, better late than never
>Stomp. Altaria won`t expect that
>Charm, lower its attack
>Dragon Dance, Nibbles needs the speed
>Crunch, you might lower its defence
>Thunder Fang, might paralyze
>Poison Fang, might poison
>Rock Slide, knock it out of the sky
>Fire Fang. It’s unfinished, but a burn could be nice
>Protect. Great for figuring out his plan

>>47243647

I think we trained Nibbles to cause flinch with all of his biting moves, so there is that as well.

>>47243718
Yes we did.

>>47243647
Is Poison Fang really worth it if it has Natural Cure?

“Moonblast!”

“Poison Fang!”

Nibbles and Altaria seem to move at about the same speed, to your surprise. He’s not the fastest Pokemon around, but neither is Altaria apparently.

Nibbles Takes a Moonblast to the face as he charges forward, but he pushes past it and leaps at his opponent.

“Impressive special defense. Not at all what I’d expect!”

Nibbles lands a Poison Fang on Altaria. You can see the venom dripping from his teeth before she gets loose.

She’s poisoned.

“Once again we see why Kat has earned the nickname of Status Queen.”

“That’s right, Chip. I just have to say something about what a rare sight this is. We haven’t seen Altaria used since, if my records are correct, Violet first became the champion. Let’s see if we can find that footage.”

You don’t have time to worry about that. He’s issuing his next command.

“Good work! Finish it off with Dragon Pulse!”

“Nibbles, Protect!”

Just in time, Nibbles summons a protective bubble that harmlessly deflects the purple blast There’s another cheer from the crowd.

There’s an intense staredown. Geno just tries to pierce into your soul with those eagle eyes of his. You meet his gaze.

Geno grunts, then laughs.

“I can’t believe I didn’t see that coming. Alright, Altaria, we’ll need to do things your way Perhaps the way of the healer is more noble in some instances.”

Altaria lets out a happy, cute noise. Somehow, that’s more disturbing that if it growled or roared like his other Pokemon. Altaria is just too sweet.

Nibbles stops for a second to scratch behind his ear.

You can’t help but laugh too. “Alright, let’s get serious.” Nibbles does better against intimidating foes, so you guess it stands to reason he has issues taking cute ones seriously. You know better though. Cute Pokemon can be just as scary.

[Next thread tomorrow evening. Smut bin likely won’t be ready, but I’ll try. Depends on my morning.
