Description

:iconnuzlocke-challenge:

Max was annoyed, very annoyed. Because instead of fighting against a worthy opponent to match his regal self, he was fighting a rodent. A bloody rodent. Who the hell did they think he was?
Despite his trainer's last minute worrying, it looked like that this fight was going to be very short indeed.
As they went into the arena, he noticed all the tall platforms that were stationed inside the circle, with handy little stairs poking out of them that a small and agile pokemon could use to scale their way up the platform. So while the zangoose could climb the platforms and run rings around him while he was stuck at the bottom.
He could, however, feel water rumbling some way beneath him, which gave him pause. If he could flood the arena, it would increase his chances of beating his opponent. If only there was some way to get it in. He looked to his trainer and mouthed 'water', pointing down with a whisker. Arcadia nodded and pointed up. Max followed the line of her hand and noticed the doors at the top of the arena where the spectators came through.
Aah...
The starting blare sounded, and they were off!
Max concentrated on the rumble of the water beneath him and used waterfall. The results, while not immediately seen, were spectacular. Everyone in the arena was startled as the rumbling started, they all thought it was an earthquake. The zangoose, not particularly shaken by this, kept on the offensive, using the platforms to attack from above with crush claw.
In the meantime, the noise grew to a roar, and not long after that, giant rivers of water poured out of the doors, causing the secondary shields to be activated around the seats where the spectators were sitting as the shields around the arena itself were shorted out by the sudden influx of water, which crashed into the arena.
Max gave a satisfied smile as he watched the area fill with water, before diving under to protect himself from any further attacks. He also got the brief image of the rodent, now soaking wet, climbing onto the top of the platforms to escape the deluge.
Now that’s evened the odds he thought, using dragon dance under water to increase his speed and attack. He could see claws raking through the water, desperately trying to get at him. He let out a chuckle, a big mistake in hindsight.
Because something purple shot through the water and hit his tail section, burning him. He let out a hiss of pain and swam away in order to assess the damage. A violet orb had glued itself to his tail, he let out another hiss. Arcadia had warned him of the toxic orb that the rodent had carried, and now he’d fallen prey to it.
He could feel his tail start to go numb, it meant he didn’t have much time. He needed to move now, he finished another dance, before curling at the bottom of the pool, using the bottom of the pool to launch himself towards the surface. He powered up a giga impact attack as he broke the surface, hoping that this attack would be all needed to win.
++++++
I had a whole of fun with this piece, I always love water effects, they’re good fun. So here we have Max attacking with Giga impact as Mars charges up counter. Here we goooooo!

Mercy... I'm just hypnotized by this entry. I blame the perspective, the water, the water, did I mention the water ? Soon you must throw a tutorial out for the masses.
We all need to be amazing. Stop hogging the awesome
