Ice Shards whipped through the arena, slashing at Sarah and Chell, her Pignite. She shielded her face from the chips of ice. "How's this for training?" she asked, grinning down at Chell, who was snorting out jets of yellow flame. "You wanted a break from water, so here we are."

Across the arena, the Colossal Glaceon stopped her volley of ice, and Sarah got a good look at their opponent. She stared into a pitiless, frozen pits of Glaceon's eyes. They were like ice fishing holes. Dark and endless. "I wasn't expecting something so..." she looked up and down the truck-sized Eeveelution. It's paws were bigger than Chell was, and her ears swung like crane winches. "...cute?"
"Right? Cute and deadly," Chell agree, her hide crackling in the cold.
Sarah's blood faced, sizzling in her veins like a grease fire. The air around her quivered, and the ice chunks in the wind melted, not daring to touch the red-hot trainer. "But we're cuter, aren't we? And hotter too."
"Nice one."
"Thanks, now let's turn this place into a sauna!"
"Right on!" Chell snorted, and she sprinted through the snow, which melted to slush as her Flame Charge carved a steaming path right at Glaceon.
Rare (+10) + Super Effective (+20) + Tier 2 Bonus (+5) x3 = +105
3d20+105
Ron followed in her wake. The Charmeleon crouched low to the ground, claws trailing just above the slush and rocks. As Chell crashed into the Glaceon, Ron sprinted past and leapt onto the icy coat of the giant creature, digging his Steel Claws in like climbing pitons and hauling himself up. He climbed onto Glaceon's back, leaving a rough, molten trail and filling the arena with clouds of sizzling smoky that smelled of charcoal and burned hair.
Rare (+10) + Super Effective (+20) + Tier 2 Bonus (+5) x3 = +105

"WHAT IS THAT!?" Grookey screamed from across the stadium.
"It's huge, man," Bulby shook his bulbous head and his plant fluttered on his back. "We gotta get outta here."
"We're not going anywhere," said Kath, "we're going to fight!"
"Hm." Heather took off her headset for a moment and quickly googled Glaceon's vulnerabilities and attacks. "Hmmm," she said again, scrolling. Her finger hovered over her phone. "Hmmmmmm.""Well," Kath said, reconsidering, "we're going to fight: but if it does too much damage, yeah we'll get out of here." She nodded, still determined, but a little bit more cautious. She'd have to remember to take the Dodge action next time, but that wasn't an option right now.
Then the Glaceon attacked.
It was super effective.
Iv|E3Y8c2d50+20
"We're all gonna die!" Grookey cried as the wave of ice crashed over the party.
"Oh, man, heavy," Bulby said like a stoner that'd just spilled the bong.
"Hold on..." Kath said as the ice burned her lips and her skin turned purple, "Counter attack!!!"
"For sure dude," Bulby furrowed his grassy brow, "gotta do what we gotta do."
Bulby opened up his flower and flung a barrage of THORNS at the hostile Glaceon.

+10 for rarity
"Ah, what the hell, I'm Grookey Baby," Grookey said, and swung his club once (1) at the hostile Glaceon's foot.

+10 for rarity
"Well, I can't see the numbers, but I'm sure you both did great," Kath said with as much encouragement as possible. She wiped blood off her face, and Grookey gave her a thumbs up.
"It's definitely gonna target us, man. We should, like, dodge, or something." Bulby shuffled.
"I know," said Kath, "I know-" "-I know," finished Heather. Grookey: 216/300Bulby: 216/300Glaceon: 535/10001-50·1-50·1-100·1-100 |

GLACEON AOE BLIZZARD (3d50)
NMkTdt6n1-501-501-50
48 DMG TOTAL: APPLIES TO ALL PLAYERS
Warm and forgiving, the light of angels shone down on Kath Ulu's Grookey. A buttery-colored sunbeam broke the cloud of ice and hail, casting a ray of sudden warmth upon the grassy monkey despite the arctic conditions. The smell of fresh-baked croissants wafted through the air as the world pulsed, murmured, whispered you are loved. Was it fate? Was it fortune? No, it was GYARADOS. Looking up into the sunbeam would reveal it was actually coming from a terrible floating sea monster, currently flying in like an advertisement banner from the Arena's mezzanine deck. Its jaws gaped fearsomely, tiny eyes shining with horrendous light. And it was far too small. The model was clearly displaying at the wrong resolution as the Gyarados arrived to give its final SCARY FACE blessing, hovering above Grookey like a mastiff-sized, unwanted RPG summon. "Ohohohohoho!"High-pitched, triumphant laughter rung like a bell through the wintery arena as Bergamot Gristleborg finally showed herself, high heels clicking dangerously on the ice. Given the adverse weather conditions she'd been forced to arrive on foot, but she was determined to make it as threatening and noisy as possible. At the sight of Sarah Lee , Bergamot made sure to pose aggressively, head tipped back and one hip cocked like a broken pistol. "Well if it isn't Oddish girl," she said in false surprise as sleet pelted her face, ignoring the colossal Glaceon that took up most of the arena. "Why, your poor little Pokemon! They seem hurt. If only... someone could heal them..."Morgana did not heal Sarah Lee's Pokemon. Instead, she turned 180 degrees and pointed her Healing Support Piplup at Kath Ulu's Bulbasaur. "Healing Bubblebeam!" she commanded, and Guillotine obliged with a pleasant shower of water for the grass-type's bulb. "Oops, guess my hand...slipped," Bergamot said sinisterly (?), turning back to Sarah Lee. "Oops, guess my hand... slipped," she said again with the exact same inflection, louder in case the hairpin-wearing Chinese girl had missed it. HEAL ON GROOKEY: GYARADOS

"Are you two okay?" Sarah called to her team. Chell and Ron were too busy dodging the frigid jaws of the colossal boss. As Sarah watched, a snowplow paw slammed into the pair, sending them tumbling like comets across the snow.
GLACEON ATTACK
dGZqjwQD2d50
Sarah watched the HP bars in her HUD dip deep into the yellow. "Next time could you slip it a little this way?" Sarah snapped at Bergamot Gristleborg . It was one thing to be useless, but to be deliberately preferential towards someone else? Insufferable.
The ice around Sarah melted in a neat, furious circle, as she brought up her To-Do list, added a new item, and hastily added a note. 'Revenge - Bergamot (Ironic?)' She then went into her friends list and edited Morgana's profile to include a note with the word 'Rival' and a little emoji of a knife.
Chell and Ron were up, and the pair raced back along their burnt trails. Thick flames dripped like tar from Charmeleon's mouth, and Ron lunged at Glaceon, chomping down on the beast's ankle and sinking sizzling fangs deep into the frozen fur. Steam, shouts, and the smell of burning fur formed a sweltering melee.
Rare (+10) + Super Effective (Fire Fang) (+20) + Tier 2 Bonus (+5) x3 = +105
3d20+105
As Ron harried the boss, Chell circled around, coming in from the side like a tag-team wrestler who'd just spotted the heel's weak knee. "Comin' in hot!" snorted Chell, and she crashed into Glaceon's opposite leg, staggering the boss and sending it to the ground.
Rare (+10) + Super Effective (Flame Charge) (+20) + Tier 2 Bonus (+5) x3 = +105
3d20+105
"All yours Kath!" Sarah called to her friend. She looked over at Morgana and her miniature Gyarados. "Maybe you wouldn't slip so much if you wore sensible shoes," Sarah said. She paired the roasting words with an eye-roll she usually reserved for Republican Senators and NPCs with too much dialogue.
Chell - 93/300 HP
Ron - 93/300 HP

Grookey looked into the light. The angelic entity caressed his wounds and, slowly, the pain went away. Tears welled up in his eyes and ran down his cheeks. It was the most beautiful experience of his entire life. He was loved.
Kath turned to Morgana. "Thanks for the heal! I'm Kath Ulu, these are my pokemon, Grookey and Bulby-"
"Ah man, it's comin' back for more!" Bulby shouted, on the grind. Bulby jumped in front of Kath to protect as the Glaceon sent an ice beam hurtling through the arena toward them.
It was SUPER EFFECTIVE!!!
WxtwFe|P2d50+20
"Ah, alright, we're alive, we're alive," Kath said, although it came across like she was trying to convince herself more than reassure her team. "C-counter attack, you guys got this..."
"Damn straight, dude," Bulby said as he let loose another barrage of razor leaves!
Rare (+10) Tier 2 Bonus (+5)
1d100+15
"Yes!" Kath cheered as Bulby gave it his best shot. "At this rate, if we can keep whittling it down, Sarah Lee will surely bring it home!"
"Yeah!" Bulby cheered. He turned to Grookey.
Kath turned to Grookey.
Grookey did nothing.
1d0
"What the hell!"
"Yeah, what the hell, man?"
"I've seen the light."
"What!?"
"Shut up."
"I'm done fighting."
"Grookey, you little bastard, I should've crammed you back in that pokebox the moment you came out!"
"Let's... love the Glaceon, baby. No more violence. Just peace, joy, and healing. Spiritual healing, baby."
"Oh man, this is not cool, this is not cool!" Bulby let one of his leaves cover his face in a childlike attempt at protecting himself. Kath desperately tried to open up another pokeball, but the mechanics of the battle wouldn't allow it. Grookey just laid back, put his hands behind his head, and closed his eyes.
"Hey, neat! Real reactive AI," Heather said, forgetting the stakes.
Grookey: 107/300
Bulby: 97/300
Glaceon: 271/1000

GLACEON USED SWIFT (2d50)
8TmmKUp61-501-50
48 DMG TO GYARADOS & PIPLUP
Morgana blinked, glancing down at her hand. She flexed her fingers, puzzled. Had the servers reset unexpectedly? Had she hit 'back' on her browser while color-coding a fully-written post? She could have sworn she had just laughed at Sarah Lee, skated a lap around the Glaceon, and come back full circle to offer Kath Ulu a chance at a dark partnership. Well, that didn't mean she couldn't do it again. Morgana had been impressed by Sarah Lee's "slippery" jibes. "O-ho-ho!" she laughed instead of coming up with a proper comeback. "It seems the pupil.... has become the master."With that, she took off running across the ice with her arms spread behind herself like wings, calling for Rainbow and Guillotine to join her. While Pignite and Charmeleon fought the Glaceon, Bergamot eventually returned around the other side with her Pokemon so covered with Swift stars that they looked like pincushions. Morgana shooed them away towards Sarah Lee's fire-types absentmindedly, turning towards the other two players. Despite her posturing, she bore the Kindler no special ill will. Evil was equal opportunity, after all. "I have returned from adversity, again," she announced, "And I have come to a decision!"One would think the inconvenient server blip would have given her time to polish her dialogue, but nope: it was pretty much unchanged. "Kath Ulu, scion of Bulby and Grookey," the gown-wearing young woman began with the air of someone who had already done this before, "You did well to betray your friend. There may be a place for you by my side in the shadows... if you choose."She gave a smile like a slice of apple, red and ripe and cut to the core. A white-gloved hand, extended.

GLACEON USED LAST RESORT
zgLgaxoG2d50
As Morgana skated around like an oiled up ptarmigan, Sarah was deep in The Zone. Her eyes flicked across her HUD, taking in stats, cooldowns, HP, moves. It was all such a delicate balance, and they were dancing on the edge of a knife. "Chell, dodge right in three, two ONE!" Ice jaws slammed into the snow, tearing a chunk from the boulder Chell had been standing on. "Both of you, turn and run NOW!"
Glaceon's reared up as the pair scattered. Gleaming blue hail whipped around Glaceon like an aura of power as she slammed down into the battlefield.
The world shook. Ice and snow thrashed and boulders tumbled, battering the pair and sending them tumbling away from their foe. Chell scrambled to her feet. She looked over at where they'd been fighting. It was now a frozen crater, studded with a thousand brutal stalagmites. She gulped. Somewhere nearby, Bergamot laughed, and a healing gleam patched up the worst of their wounds.
Sarah ground her teeth. She tried to glare at Morgana but the woman was moving too fast. "Thanks for the heal," she snapped, before dialing her attention to the other trainer: Kath Ulu . "What happened to your Grookey? Why are we down a man?"
Why was she doing this herself? Shouldn't the other two be just as invested as her? Why was Grookey now a pacifist? Flames of fury and indignation rose in Sarah like the sun. Her blood sizzled, and her panting breath burned the air. This is insanity. Fine. I'll do it all myself.
"CHELL! RON!" she shouted, in a voice like a bushfire. "BURN HER TO SLUSH! NO. TO ASH! RUIN HER. I WANT TO SEE NOTHING LEFT! GIVE ME FIIIIIIRE!!!"
Her flames were infectious. Chell and Ron glowed as if stoked with gasoline. Golden flames burst along Chell's patterned hide, and Ron's crimson drool deepened to near black. Ice cracked and burst around them as they charged. Half the arena was up in steam, hanging above them like a victory cloud.
Glaceon stood her ground, paws planted as she pulled in a vast, freezing gale, filling her lungs for a final, withering attack. Sarah felt the pull. I hope you choke on the sparks.
The inhale stopped, and Glaceon unleashed a- KA-BOOOOOOM!
CHELL ATTACKS WITH FLAME CHARGE
Rare + Super Effective + T2 + T3 = +40 (x4)
4d20+160
Chell crashed into Glaceon's face like an earthbound meteor, throwing Glaceon's head backwards.
RON ATTACKS WITH FLAMETHROWER
Rare + Super Effective + T2 + T3 = +40 (x4)
4d20+160
Ron's Flamethrower came roaring in right behind, igniting the boss and obliterating her last sliver of health, and with it any chance of her final attack.
Sweltering heat emanated from the impact site in cruel waves, no doubt ruining Bergamot Gristleborg 's skating.

"Whoa!!!" Heather cried. She was standing in her room, VR headset on, gripping her input sensors with fervor. "That was so cool! I actually... get a Glaceon??? Yes! Yes, yes, yes, yes-""-yes!" Grookey shouted, "We did it!"
"WE??" Bulby and Kath shouted back.
As the ice settled, Bulby laboriously climbed back into his pokeball, and Grookey went for a little walk to get his little thoughts in order.
Kath turned to Morgana.
"Thanks for the offer, but I'm not really sure what that means, 'by your side in the shadow'. I definitely don't want to betray Sarah Lee, so I hope you don't mind if I pass on that one for now. But uh..." Kath faltered, uncertain, as the character and player becoming one in their caution... ...and then Heather sent the friend request anyway.
