Does anyone have any impressive Pokemon battles they wish to share? The main reason I started this thread is to just share this incredibly close battle that Morrigan and myself had when we were tag teaming the Battle Arcade over WiFi.
We had just traded with one another and Morrigan had hardly any good Pokemon except for an Espeon and despite this we decide to give the Battle Arcade a go regardless, mainly because I was wanting to try out a strategy with Ninjask and Weezing. Nevertheless, we get into the battle and it soon turns sour. I begin with my Ninjask strategy and then switch into Weezing who then gets attracted by the CPU's Glameow... Totally ruining my plan. While this is all going on, Morrigan's Espeon is beaten by the rival team gradually. She then sends out a level 32 Ambipom she received from me in a trade and thankfully does a fair bit of damage with Double Hit but because of the level difference Ambipom is soon tossed aside. With one shot left with Weezing, I used Explosion and wiped out the two opponents. They're taken down, as is my Weezing but I still had a Ninjask in reserve.
In the next round we all send out our next Pokemon. The CPU has an Aipom and a Grovyle. I send forth my Ninjask. Things aren't looking too good. I start off thinking i can get a Swords Dance in but Aipom uses Fake Out and brings me down to half health. The Grovyle then uses miracle leaf and takes my health down to red. Next turn I use X-Scissor and amazingly KO the Grovyle. Just the Aipom and my Ninjask left. Aipom surprisingly uses Thunder Wave and it was then I thought we had lost. However, it was at that point luck truly favoured our team.
Prior to entering the battle we won some berries from the Arcade roulette. Turns out they were Cheri Berries. At the beginning I was slightly "Pfft, fat lot of good they'll do." But I can't tell you how fast I ate those words the moment Aipom Thunder Waved me. The berry got rid of the paralysis and I then used X-Scissor. I thought it might have KO'd the opponent but it only had a smidgeon of health left... Next turn, the Aipom uses Fake Out (Which is useless as it's only a fist turn usable move only) and I then get that quick X-Scissor in and end the battle.
It may not sound like much but Morrigan and I were literally roaring down the DS microphones to one another. SUCH A CLOSE FINISH D: Still feeling pretty jubilant after that. It's the dangerously close battles that get my pulses racing. And considering how badly the AI usually cheats in the Battle Frontier; i'm pretty d**n happy. Sorry how long it was, I just wanted to right down the entire match to remember it for years to come... Maybe even tell the grandkids when i'm old enough.
