Shaking off a bit of the hit from the flames still lingering around him, Habenero began his run up once more. However just like he has time and time again, he seemed to go wide. Maybe it was the sandstorm, maybe it was fate. He didn't know why it kept happening but he knew he was mad about it. But this wasn't the time. Not in front of Roxanne. Internalizing his rage, Cole put on a fake smile and called out " We'll get it with the next hit Hab, we can't give up!" Flame Wheel 1 vs AC 2 for a miss
Habenero gains 10 DR

"Not gonna lie fellers, lookin' like this is all stacked too hard against us." Theodore winces as the Rhyhorn crashes into Six with a fierce intensity. Why did everything seem to pack ice? Ayah it at least made sense. Recalling the massive palm from where it had fallen and no doubt injured itself quite badly, he set Lone Ranger to the field and considered his options for a moment. Ranger didn't seem keen on the burning sands.
"We're gonna try a Bubblebeam on that dino, eye for an eye."

Kai looked over at Theo, a bit surprised . Sure things looked bad, but... "Even if it is, best to give it all we got, not just give up now!"He pointed at the Rhydon, he wanted that gone. He already had his fill of that for one fight. "Make that rock pay for that, we aren't going down without making it hard!"Wela ran on as far as it could, flinching from the pelting rocks and sand, barely managing to get within the distance it needed to try and pull some nutrients out of the rock. It reached out, sapping with all it's strength. Tick from Sandstorm Brutal Orders Mega Drain ACC: Nat 20 Damage: 52 Grass Special Half Damage Dealt is restored to Wela Flinches and inflicts -2 to Accuracy for one Round

Even though Habenaro doesn't manage to connect, Wela and Lone Ranger manage to fell the Rhyhorn, the great beast collapsing before being recalled. Roxanne acknowledges it with a small smile and a nod, before her own Pokémon turn to taking care of Habanero. The Lairon's rocks go wide, but the Nosepass totters into position, before firing crystals at the Fire type, causing it to slump down. Wordlessly, Roxanne pulls her last Pokéball out, releasing a large bipedal insect onto the battlefield. Rhydon takes an injury from Giga Drain. Rhydon faints from Water Pulse. Rock Tomb misses. Lairon gains +5 DR. Lairon takes damage from Burn. Quilava takes 37 damage, 1 injury, and Faints from Power Gem. Nosepass gains +5 DR.

"We might be looking at another lost... But never say die. Lone Ranger! Saddle up! The sand might burn, but you lived in it just fine when we met, bring the ocean on in and give it to that sand spewin head... Thing." Petering out awkwardly, Theodore seems to get his point across. Gem flashing brightly, the star spins into the wind, before aiming its gem downrange and firing off a bubblebeam with such force that it blows the scouring winds wide if just for a moment, exploding across the surface of the nosepass. (72 Water Special, Nosepass loses a speed stage if it remains conscious. Staryu only moves 1-2 squares closer, to maximum range for longshot.)

"Uh, Back away from that bug Wela. Take out the Rock while you do!" Kai grimaced at the bug as it appeared. Wela began backing away fast, looking at the Nose faced rock with interest as it was buffeted by the sand. It stopped to extend it's arms out and draw energy out from the nose Pokemon. Trades in Sweet Confection +4 Evasion and Accuracy until the end of it's next turn. Evasion is at 6 for all evasions. Brutal Orders Mega Drain ACC: 12 Damage: 34 Grass Special

The combined power of water and grass once more is enough to take down a foe, as the Nosepass gets blasted and falls over. The Armaldo launches rocks at Wela, battering the plant, but the Lairon's rocks go wide as it touches back down to earth. Nosepass takes 2 injuries from Bubblebeam. It's super effective! Nosepass takes an injury and faints from Mega Drain. It's super effective! Gloom heals to full. Gloom takes 16 damage from Ancient Power. Lairon misses with Rock Tomb. Lairon gains 10 DR. Lairon takes damage from Burn. Magnet rise has worn off.

"Oh wow, lookatem go!". Theodore cheered as another one of Roxanne's Pokemon fell, nudging Kai with a big grin. "Yer flower's no slouch either!" He declared with his southern charm and an excited twinkle in his eyes, before butting against Cole. "Hey, hey look..." He gestures to the Lairon. "We ain't hardly touched it and it can't take Habenaro's spice! I think we can swing this if we keep at it! COME ON RANGER, RIDE INTO THE WIND!"
The Staryu bounced along on its tips two meters nearer, gave a little hop and this time spun with the wind, another torrent of bubbles and grit loosing itself, this time on the poor Armaldo, which split the exploding bubbles and pounding sand on its strong shell.
(Staryu takes its third tick from sand, triggering salty snack in reaction to it for 15 temp HP, and moves two squares closer, it lands a regular sfe hit on Armaldo after Battle Armor,for 36 Water Special.)
"YEEEEEEHAWWWWW!!"

Wela dances away from the rocks, still getting pelted with the sand, but showing off it's affinity for dancing away quite well. Kai grins back at Theo, giving him a thumbs up as he did. "Glad you're getting back into it! Show them how it's done Wela!"Wela continues spinning, a burst of blue powder coming off of it and flying towards the lairon, covering it with it's Sleep Powder. Spinning Dance, +1 Evasion Focused Orders Sleep Powder VS Lairon Accuracy 10 AC 6 Sleep Accuracy and Evasion Bonus are done Evasion 3

Staryu's blast batters the Armaldo which cries out, a primal screech, as it advances into the place left by Gloom. Lairon, unfortunately for it, had fallen asleep from the spores, so it's just slowly smoldering, but Armaldo slashes with rocky claws dripping with poison towards the Lone Ranger, slashing across the star. Armaldo takes 2 injuries from Bubblebeam. Lairon is now Asleep. Armaldo eats its Lansat berry for +1 Crit Range. Staryu takes 46 damage, 3 injuries, and Faints from Cross Poison. (Or 23 damage, and an injury from spending Reflect.)Lairon takes a tick of damage from burn.

"Hunker in Ranger, it's time to show him some true grit. You've faced sand. You've faced rocks. You've made some of the best shots I've seen today! Hang in there!"
(Lone Ranger takes a tick of damage from Sand, dropping to 29 Hp, then uses Recover, healing to full. It's Injury value was 28.)
The starfish plants it's feet in the ground, the scratches, scrapes, and cuts just miraculously fading away, it's jewel shining a bright red, pulsing with life in the waning sandstorm.

"Alright Wela, Get back some energy from that bug! It's part rock so you should get something from it at least!" Kai didn't think it needed more encouragement, things had been going well after all. Wela spins around a few times, inching a bit closer to the battle before drawing energy from the bug, making a spiral of energy as it finished it's spinning, before using the energy to heal it's wounds. Tick from Sandstorm Brutal Orders Mega Drain Accuracy 10 Damage: 39 Grass Special

Even though the Staryu's regrowing, that doesn't seem to faze the Armaldo, who grasps at the star, and bites at it with ferocity. Wela's attack saps some health, but it's still going. The Lairon's not seeming to want to wake up, though... Armaldo takes an injury from Mega Drain. Gloom heals 10 HP. Staryu takes 26 damage from Bug Bite (and so will gain an injury from Sandstorm next round), and Armaldo gains the benefit of its spent digestion buff. Lairon takes a tick of damage from burn. Map

"Just keep on pelting it with damage! It has to go down eventually!"Wela seems to pout at being ignored by the enemy, waving it's arms again and drawing more energy out of the Armaldo in an attempt to get it's attention. Focused Orders Mega Drain Accuracy 9 AC 2 Damage: 33 Grass Special

"Him munchin on Ranger seems to be doing him good, fire and get out!" Staryu does it's best, but can't get clear with the swirling sands and the powerful swings of Armaldo's arms.

Staryu falls, and the Armaldo turns its claws towards Wela, the insect getting drained of vitality, but still managing to slash at the plant. It's a severe amount of damage... it seems like one good hit could finish either side off. The Lairon finally burns itself out, as the flames take too much of a toll on it, the sandstorm fading at the same time it does. Gloom heals 7 damage from Mega Drain. Gloom takes 38 damage and 2 injuries from Cross Poison. Lairon Faints from Burn. The Sandstorm ends.

Kai grits his teeth, this battle was intense. Even with the girls it had never been this neck and neck really. "Wela, give it your all with Mega Drain!" Wela weakly reached out, using it's energy to try and rip out what it could from the hulking bugs body. It greedily absorbed all it pulled from it, releasing a sickly smell as it did. Focused Orders Mega Drain ACC 18 Flinches and inflicts -2 Accuracy for one round. Damage: 36 Grass Special

With the last ditch effort, the Armaldo stays standing... before finally collapsing down, falling against the floor. "Well done," Roxanne says with a smile. "I haven't seen a battle that close in quite some time. Perhaps sometime in the future, you'll be willing to come back for a rematch where I actually get to flex some of my tactical skill, instead of just relying on my training.""Regardless, you've earned the Stone Badge. It recognizes your victory here... but also brings with it further challenges. The Gyms you will face grow ever stronger." She nods. "Now, this isn't required by the League, but I do tend to parcel out some gifts to those who've beaten my Gym. I just hope that you know enough to use them well." The Leader gestures, and a part of the wall opens, with a cache of items inside. "Take one of the standard items, and a brace. I'm sure you've no doubt seen how one can help turn a sure loss into something much, much closer."Armaldo Faints.
Everyone gets a Milestone, 750 EXP to split between their 'mon, that may not bring anyone above level 25, one Held Item worth $2000 or less, and one Type Brace.
Also, the Stone Badge. It grants Sturdy when applied to a Pokémon. (A reminder that only one badge may be active at once.)

"Hooowee... had me sweatin fer a bit there." He claps Cole on the shoulder and gives him an earnest smile. "Good call with Hab, ballsy as hell walkin' into a Rock Gym with a Fire-Type, but you did it and netted us a win, yer feller burns hot."
Theodore collects Staryu with a surprising tenderness, pulling out a kerchief to buff the stone at it's center. "You did great, were gonna have to look into some poffins or somethin fer you as a treat." Theodore collects a small pouch of shining powder, and a light blue choker with a darker blue stone set in the front from amongst the goods as he's instructed before approaching Roxanne.
"Ain't got no fancy book learnin' in me miss, but I still think th'reason fer fightin is the most important part of Pokemon battling. Thanks fer the good one." With that, he excused himself for the Pokemon Center.

Kai ran up to his plant, giving it a giant hug as he knelt down to it's level "You did great Wela!I can't believe we did it!" He easily picked Wela up off the floor as the plant waved it's arms in excitement as Kai paraded it around for a moment. His nose was twitching from the scent but his excitement overpowered that.
"You did a big job Wela, So I'm gonna let you pick the item!" Kai couldn't keep the grin off his face, even as he walked up and let the Gloom look inside, it reached out and took a root from the cache. After obtaining it's choice it gave a loud yawn, putting the root away in it's leaves. "Aw, tired out? Well, Have a good rest then!" Kai put the Gloom away in it's ball, before taking a brown, earth colored brace from the pile.
He turned around, his grin aimed at his two companions as he walked back beside Theo. "Don't forget the Golett! I uh, don't really know it' name yet, sorry. But it did a number as well, Polani I think did the least amount of work, and even then that was a lot they put in!" He stayed behind to wait Cole's choice, but was just waiting to get moving again. "Thanks for the gifts, Roxanne!"
