Round 1 . @luna , @tute The crowd roars as a platform lowers, bright lights from underneath casting the person standing on it in shadows. The air buzzes with energy. The lights lower, revealing none other than Jerrod Bacchman in the flesh. The crowd screams, the moving blurs of color showing their approval. Jerrod lights up on the big screen wearing his trademark grin before his voice booms into the mic on his head. "Hellooooo ladies, gentleman, and nonbinary canaries! Are you guys ready to rock this Tournament?!" The crowd surges and confetti flies from the stands. Jerrod chuckles good naturedly. "You heard the crowd, contestants! Step forward and battle to prove yourself! Good luck to the both of you!" The screen flashes, showing a picture of the two paired up to battle this round as well as their pokemon. The platform is moved to the sidelines so Jerrod can narrate and attention is turned to the battlefield.Inari will be PMing you shortly with your pokemon. When you have them, feel free to start posting! c: please remember that battles are 1v1 with 3 pokemon each, and after a pokemon faints both parties must send out a new pokemon and cannot use the previous one. no items are allowed and no heal items. you have 30 posts, 15 per member (and not counting this one) to come to a conclusion to your battle. when 30 posts are reached, a staff member will step in and judge who they think the winner is. this thread will be open until 8/19/17. if no conclusion is reached by then, staff will step in and judge who they think the winner is. you have a week from your opponent's last post to make a post of your own or you will be disqualified. you earn double specks in these posts! please keep in mind that stat and battle calculators are not the be all end all for these battles. is it fine to use them as a guide and resource, but rp and real life do not have stats and neither does this site. they are a tool but not an answer.

The crowd vibrated with vigor as an image of each contestant flashed onto the screen, with Iba's harrowed frown stabbing Iba right where it hurt. At the time the picture was taken, she was so distressed on what type of expression to make for the photo, that she ended up looking much angrier than anticipated. Just like looking at bad ID photos. She didn't have much time to get acquainted with the Pokemon they assigned her. There was a brief meet and greet before they got up on the stage, but it was hardly enough time to get a basic idea on their fighting styles. The tournament staff basically handed her a couple of note cards with each Pokemon's basic info and waved her on with a quick 'break a leg'. And now here she was, nails digging deep into her arms as her steely stare locked onto the opposing trainer. According to the name on the screen, this was 'Yuka'. Their teams appeared to be well-matched. Of course they would be, she reasoned. This was meant to be a tournament battle to test the trainer's abilities, not strictly the Pokemon's. "Let's give them a show." She forced herself to smile through the piercing roar of the crowd and their never-ending stares. Public speaking was always awful, but by now, she knew how to suck it up and bare with it when she absolutely had to. Besides, somewhere in the crowd, her wife of her life was cheering her on with a tiny Chingling wrapped around her arms. Her wife wasn't the only one tuning in though; some of Iba's step-children were joining Liv in the crowd today for the added support. One even held up a custom sign that said 'Grandma Goes Hard!' with a picture of Iba's face photoshopped over Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Whoever that was. Her family was a hoot. "I'm ready to see what you all got." With her first Pokeball readied in her hand, she lightly tossed it into the air. Mid-air, a whirling ball of fire spiraled towards the ground with a flashy Flame Wheel. Instead of smoothly catching the Pokeball like she wanted, the Chimchar's Pokeball instead skipped across the ground, flattening the Chimchar's dramatic entrance like a damp towel. All Iba could do was smile the awkwardness off as she carefully bent over to pick it back up for safe keeping. "Chimchar, you're looking great today." Her compliments did nothing to smear away the Chimchar's grumpy grumbles, but the crowd's excitement made up for it. Upon seeing the crowd, the Chimchar lit up and immediately began blowing kisses back to her adoring audience. -- 445 words The other Pokemon that flashed on Iba's screen: @luna hi!! you can make the first move idm
