    [GYM BATTLE #8] Viridian City Gym VS Giovanni






    GYM BATTLE #8

    Welcome to the Indigo League! Now that you have a tough team, it's time to take on the Gym Leaders of the Kanto region! Can you defeat them all and earn badges? Gyms will be open as long as the event is on, so if you can't defeat a leader yet, don't worry! Go out and catch some more Pokemon!

    How it works
    The details of how to battle are found in the spoiler below. The main things to remember are:
    If your Pokemon is at a higher evolution stage then it has an advantage.
    If at least one of your Pokemon's type's is super effective against the opponent, then it has an advantage.
    If both you and the opponent have at least one type super effective against each other, the bonus cancels out. There is no "4x" or "double" super effective.

    Spoiler:
    Battling is based on only 2 things. What evolution stage your Pokemon is and its type.


    Evolution stage
    For the purposes of the game, pretend no Pokemon outside of Kanto exist.

    A basic Pokemon is a Pokemon that is unevolved like Bulbasaur and Pikachu.
    A middle evolution is a Pokemon that has evolved once and has the potential to evolve again, like Kakuna.
    A final evolution is a Pokemon that can't evolve any further like Venusaur, Seadra or Scyther.

    A Pokemon can defeat any Pokemon which are at a lower evolution stage (unless one Pokemon is super effective against another!)

    Example:
    Basic Pokemon vs Basic Pokemon = draw
    Basic Pokemon vs Middle Evolution = middle evolution wins
    Basic Pokemon vs Final Evolution = final evolution wins
    Middle evolution vs Final Evolution = final evolution wins
    Type Effectiveness

    If at least one of the Pokemon's types is SUPER EFFECTIVE against the opposing Pokemon, then you get a bonus equal to one evolution stage.

    Example:
    Bulbasaur (Basic + Super effective) vs a Squirtle (Basic) = Bulbasaur wins
    Bulbasaur (Basic + Super effective) vs Wartortle (Middle) = draw
    Bulbasaur (Basic + Super effective) vs Blastoise (Final) = Blastoise wins
    If both Pokemon are super-effective against each other, then the bonus cancels out.

    Example:
    Bulbasaur (Basic + Super effective) vs Geodude (Basic + Super effective) = draw
    Bulbasaur (Basic + Super effective) vs Graveler (Middle + Super effective) = Graveler wins
    Ivysaur (Middle + Super effective) vs Gyarados (Final + Super effective) = Gyarados wins
    Venusaur (Final + Super effective) vs Gyarados (Final + Super effective) = draw


    Example battle


    Trainer Alex challenges you!
    "I'm a new trainer but I'll do my best!"

    Pidgeotto (Middle, Normal/Flying type)
    Sandshrew (Basic, Ground type)
    Metapod (Middle, Bug type)

    Choose three of your own Pokemon to battle with! To make it simple, you can only use a Pokemon once per battle. So think of it like three 1 vs 1 battles!


    My team:

    Charmander (Basic, Fire type)
    Abra (Basic, Psychic type)
    Nidorino (Middle, Poison type)

    The battle! Round One!

    Pidgeotto (Middle, Normal/Flying type) vs Nidorino (Middle, Poison type)
    No type bonuses. Draw.

    Round Two!

    Sandshrew (Basic, Ground type) vs Abra (Basic, Psychic type)
    No type bonuses. Draw.

    Round Three!

    Metapod (Middle, Bug type) vs Charmander (Basic, Fire type)
    Charmander is super effective. Draw.

    Final outcome: Battle is a draw!


    VIRIDIAN CITY GYM

    Gym Rules:
    You will battle with six Pokemon.
    The gym will function as six 1 vs 1 battles.
    You must win at least five of the six battles to defeat Giovanni
    Any battle which ends in a draw is counted as a loss.


    "Fwahahaha! This is my hideout!
    I planned to resurrect Team Rocket here! But, you have caught me again!
    So be it! This time, I'm not holding back!
    Once more, you shall face Giovanni, the greatest trainer!"


    Pokemon:
    (Final, Poison/Ground type)
    (Final, Ground type)
    (Final, Normal type)
    (Final, Poison/Ground type)
    (Final, Rock/Ground type)
    (Final, Ground type)


    Individual Prize: Earth Badge , Dratini .

    BONUS! HARD MODE PRIZE: Defeat all 6 of Giovanni's Pokemon and your Dratini will be shiny.

    Post your battle below. When your battle is approved and your name is added to the first post under Certified Trainers, you may go ahead and request Dratini in the Wild Pokemon Claim thread.

    I’m assuming the Nidoking was supposed to be final stage.

    My Team:
    -Squeaker the Dugtrio (final, ground)
    -Aurolia the Lapras (final, ice/water)
    -Bruce Lee the Hitmonlee (final, fighting)
    -Parashu the shiny Sandslash (final, ground)
    -Caitlyn the Vaporeon (final, water)
    -Lawsuit the Scyther (final, bug/flying)

    Nidoking (final, poison/ground) vs Squeaker the Dugtrio (final, ground)
    Squeaker wins due to type advantage!

    Dugtrio (final, ground) vs Aurolia the Lapras (final, ice/water)
    Aurolia wins due to type advantage!

    Persian (final, normal) vs Bruce Lee the Hitmonlee (final, fighting)
    Bruce Lee wins due to type advantage!

    Nidoqueen (final, poison/ground) vs Parashu the shiny Sandslash (final, ground)
    Parashu wins due to type advantage!

    Rhydon (final, rock/ground) vs Caitlyn the Vaporeon (final, water)
    Caitlyn wins due to type advantage!

    Marowak (final, ground) vs Lawsuit the Scyther (final, bug/flying)
    Lawsuit and Marowak tie due to neither having an advantage over one another.

    Overall it’s a win!
