>>19469818The tie was randomized."Skrelp, stay there and look idle! Hexcalibur, Iron Tail on that Tyrantrum!"
"Skreeeee, skreeeelp..."
Whipping his tail into full metal-mode, Hexcalibur gets off his ass and dashes into the battlefield, "As long it gets me back to my marathon session, then so be it! ONWARD!"
"BLEAAARRURUUUUGUGHHHHHHHHH!" the serpent's fetus flails all over the place as Hexcalibur runs across the field to face Tyrantrum and Avalugg, it's here that Dio makes his next move.
"Avalugg, Curse. Tyrantrum, Fire Fang."
"Avvvvaaalugggg...Avaaaaaaaaaaa!"
"Tyrannn, TRUM TRUM TRUM!"
Since he's not a Ghost-type, Curse functions differently for Avalugg than those spooky ghosties. Inflicting a curse upon himself, Avalugg sacrifices the speed he couldn't give two shits about for a boost in his bulk and power.
>Avalugg's Speed was lowered...>Avalugg's Attack rose!>Avalugg's Defense rose!Meanwhile, Tyrantrum's fangs are burning brightly with blazing flames, but Hexcalibur refuses to look intimidated by it because that would betray the hero's code--shit about how a GENUINE hero doesn't look like a pussy in times of danger.
"Cold metal to the face!"
>It's super-effective!>It's super-effective!Hexcalibur's Iron Tail strikes Tyrantrum just before Fire Fang grabs a hold of him. Boosted by Strong Jaw, super-effectiveness, invested EVs, pentaperfection, and likely good nature, the big-toothed tyrant could care less about STAB, it'd be like dumping a bucket of water into the ocean so that the ocean would have more water. (Is that a good way to put it?)
"Hmph! You may think that these searing jaws harm me, you prehistoric cretin, BUT I SHALL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE ENDURED A THOUSAND YEARS OF SEPARATE AND UNRELATED INSTANCES OF SEVERE PAIN, your FOOL's moves do nothing to deter me!"
All Hexcalibur gets is the roar of a brute in return.
>Bust out of Fire Fang's grip!A) Use Aqua Tail!
B) Use Seed Bomb!
C) Skrelp, use Hydro Pump!
