>>19449827The tie was randomized.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrvDTTpnQQ4The next two moves again, get called out in tandem.
"Shell Smash."
"Rock Slide!"
Having predicted that you would go for his already-moved, weakened Talonflame, Dio counters by boosting Barbaracle in ways that make you regret momentarily forgetting his existence.
>Barbaracle's Defense was lowered..>Barbaracle's Sp. Def was lowered..>Barbaracle's Attack rose sharply!>Barbaracle's Sp. Attack rose sharply!>Barbaracle's Speed rose sharply!3+ Attack and 2+ Speed is quite deadly, see. And deadly is the understatement of the century after factoring in Tough Claws.
"Pummmmpkaaaaa!~"
Serena and Alice watch from afar with baited breath as Pumpkaboo assaults both of Dio's Pokemon wih Rock Slide. While its pretty evident that Talonflame is no more, Barbaracle on the other hand takes slightly more damage thanks to Shell Smash.
"So um, mum-mum, I f'get. Who's this guy a'gan?"
Serena /would/ give a more coherent answer, but she's too engrossed in her journal to do so, "He's what makes this biography interesting, that's who he is."
A) Alice calls Dio a poopnose.
B) Serena scolds you for not strategizing enough.
C) Alice proclaims aloud that you really should just move on already.
D) If you imagine Barbaracle naked, then he won't appear so intimidating!
