Round 1
Both trainers ordered their moves, and the Pokémon got right to work. Being generally the fastest, Frangoose moved first. Almost leaping the second she heard her orders, the cat ferret Pokémon began speeding around the arena. With no general form or pattern, she dived in and out of rocks and away from electric gates. Jumping over bushes and maneuvering around ponds, she looked rather insane. However, her insane and quite frankly random journey took her back to her original position, five metres in front of CJ. Not looking at all phased, this seemingly random act had raised her speed.
Frangoose:
+1 SPD
-4 ENG
Swanknub was the next to move. Well, not move, not really. He lifted his head and stared into the sky. Then, he starter to hum. The hum, high pitched but warbling, rang throughout the arena, echoed by the trees. The hum was weird, it sounded like it would be cold. As he continued to hum, clouds quickly migrated towards and over the arena, casting a dark shadow over it. The sound of cold made the clouds ripple and wave, and the tips began to freeze. They grew heavy, and then started to rain. The rain then freezing and turning into hail. Surrounding the arena.
Weather:
Hail (
3 more rounds.)
Swanknub:
-7 ENG
Frangoose:
2% hail damage
And then Frangoose, being hyperactive and hyped up on agility still, jumped into action. Looking down immediately below her, with her huge claws, she began to dig. Grabbing handfuls of dirt and tossing them behind her, the clumps hitting CJ on the face and clothes. She suddenly began to pick up pace and her arms were moving faster than one could see. A hole was created within a matter of seconds, large enough to be able to fit her in it. When the hole was dug, she dived in.
Frangoose:
UNDERGROUND
-9 ENG
Swanknub laughed, Frangoose had fallen right into his trap...well, okay, not trap...not anything. Frangoose had chosen a silly move. Why dig against a ground and ice type? Oh well. Anyway, Swanknub decided to be a physical bane to Frangoose and started to set up a reflect wall. Getting up on his hind legs, he pushed himself into being bipedal. Then, using his forepaws, he started to do an impression of a mime against a wall. His forepaws pressing up against an invisible wall in the middle of the battlefield. A pink tint suddenly appeared in a cube surrounding Swanknub. As if there was a barrier there.
Swanknub:
+REF (2x DEF)
-8 ENG
Frangoose was just ordered to wait for her opponent, so she did. Chilling in the meantime.
Frangoose:
+5 ENG
Swanknub was next. Grinning to himself, knowing that being underground would cause more damage to Frangoose. Trotting over, happily, near to Frangoose's hole, he began to stomp. At first, due to his weight, it didn't do much. And, then, with each stomp, the intensity of the stomping began to grow. As the intensity grew, so did its frequency. The ground, soon enough, started to shake and quiver, the loose dirt around Frangoose's hole jumping up and down. Eventually, the shaking was so intense that it broke the ground in too, striking Frangoose's hole, knocking her back a lot.
Frangoose:
22% Damage Done
Swanknub:
-13 ENG
The hail continued to fall.

Why am I underground
-CJ. Zangoose does
learn agility, but I am giving you the benefit of the doubt here, seeing as its 'dex entry states it does and other ASBs allow it. This will not happen in the future.
-Weather effects will not effect anyone underground.
-Cypher, post your orders next.
-I used discretion when the status moves didn't do as much energy consumption as it should have done.
