Metallum stumbled backwards, wounded.
"Come on! Use Overdrive again!" Neilò commanded, with the
Toxtricity 'singing' right in Pangoro's face. The wound stung a
bit, causing him to go momentairly off-pitch.
Metallum was thrown back to Neilò, who was forced to switch him out
for Flora. "Steen!"
"Alright, Flora! Let's go! Use Seed Bomb!"
The Steenee shook her hard hair-like leaves, releasing hard-shelled
seeds towards The Dark-type bear.
Pangoro used Bullet Punch to try and counter the Seed Bombs but
they ended up exploding when he tried to hit them and fainted. Bea
recalled Pangoro and sent Hitmontop back out. "Hitmontop, use
Triple Kick!"
Flora was taken by surprise by the first kick and took the second,
but blocked the third.
Neilò thought for a split second, then called: "Flora! Go for
Stomp!" The Steenee stomped Hitmontop's headcrest, trying to stop
him from spinning
Steenee was blown away, and landed behind Neilò. "You Ok?" The
Trainer asked. "Nee!" Flora nodded, looking much more confident
than before.
"Very well! Stomp again!" This time, Flora lunged at Hitmontop and
tried to pin his legs down with her hardened leaves.
"Hitmontop, use Revenge!" Bea commanded. Hitmontop waited for the
attack to hit and then attacked with Revenge dealing double the
damage to taking a hit before using it.
Like Metallum before her, Flora reacted on her own, Stomping again
the burned Pokemon. She was clearly tired, but managing to land two
Stomps in a row gave her the confidence to strike one last
time.
This time, she managed to pin Hitmontop's top-like crest (Hitmontop
flinched).
Flora then looked down at her struggling opponent, and giggled, her
personality somewhat more in line with a Tsareena's.
"That's incredible, Flora! Now, use Flail!" Flora stepped back,
whacking Hitmontop with her leaves repeatedly, the anger and
tension fueling her attack.
Hitmontop flinched and was unable to attack. The burn had gotten
him to low health and the Flail that the Steenee had used dealt
lots of damage due to Steenee's low health. As such, Hitmontop
fainted. Bea sent out her Sirfetch'd and had him use Brutal Swing.
Before Sirfecth'd could even begin the attack with its leek sword,
Neilò recalled the exhausted Flora, calling Metallum back out.
"Alright, use Poison Jab!"
Brutal Swing hit, but then Metallum managed to slip an arm around
his opponent's shield, hitting with his four fingertips seeping
poison.
Metallum was knocked to the ground by the heavy lance's blow, but
got up relatively quickly.
"Are you still in this? Then, use Uproar!"
Metallum's voice echoed through the Stadium, waking up a few people
and Pokemon who'd dozed off.
Sirfetch'd tried to hold out the detect as long as possible but
wasn't able to completely hold it out and Metallum broke through
his Detect and hit him, causing Sirfetch'd to get knocked off his
feet.
Sirfetch'd's (?) hit knocked Metallum out of the Uproar trance.
"Still with me?" Neilò asked. Metallum weakly made a V sign with
his fingers. He was clearly out of steam, but could go for one last
attack. "Alright, use Poison Jab!"
Metallum closed the distance and, like before, poked his opponent
around the leafy shield and right in the face, his toxins flowing
within the duck Pokemon.
