The chaos only grew as the gym leader himself sent out a dunsparce. Writhe and Nostra took positions near the ends of the arena, using their respective grips to stay close to the ceiling on opposite sides. The Hail caused Nostra to shiver, he was well acclimated to cave environments but it was getting a tad cold for his taste. He hung himself from his bottom two wings, and used his upper wings to wrap up and gain some warmth. 

Writhe thrived in the hail. The chills brought her strength, and she chose to unleash it upon the arena proper. Her wings began to flap eagerly, snowy scales rippling toward the arena. At first it was just a soft breeze, but soon the main battle would be covered in a grand Blizzard. There was no particular target, just a general attempt to create chaos.

Watching its partner worked gave Nostra an idea. He pulled himself out of his wings just enough to reveal his mouth, which he opened with a retching sound. Smoke billowed out, swarming toward the blizzard. The cruel Haze combined with the gale, turning it into a churning mass of biting darkness. Hopefully this would really throw the contestants for a spin.

Knowing that they may become a target, Nostra and Writhe began crawling across the ceiling to switch places.

ice ice ice. stalagmites stalagmites stalagmites. didn't anyone want to use anything differently? after all there were tons of other things in this place that could be used other than the obvious rocks hanging from the ceiling. and he was going to try and do that. after all the point was to use the biome and stand out. how could you stand out among a bunch of falling rocks and a snow storm. with bug-juice busy on the ceiling there wasn't much he could do on that front but there was still plenty he and twizzler could do. after all that was the point to work together. or something like that. without any hesitation he climbed onto the sturdy dragon's back, urging it forward as the pokemon used dragon rush to climb up the rocks of one of the waterfalls and out of the way for the most part of the ice storms.

there was still a chill in the air but at least they could see a bit better and figure out what to do from here. he wished he'd taught twizzler any kind of move that involved distance but he hadn't even really been sure what was going to happen here today. he'd know for next time. scanning the area the only thing he really saw was a blockage where water dripped and dribbled in. sure it was enough to cause a waterfall with that but if he removed the rocks then just maybe... with twizzler engaging on the rocks water began to flood in from above the others, with glitch and twizzler standing on a rock that was just out of the water. "oops, looks like the dam broke..."

the water rushed towards the other group of competitors, flakes of it turning to ice and snow as it hit the extreme cold front that was happening at the basin. some of it freezing in place much like a few of the other entries entrances. it made for a very pretty almost natural looking ice sculpture that the pair of them slid down gracefully, taking their place at the top as glitch thought they so rightfully deserved.

The chaos was spreading. Soon it was impossible for Writhe and Nostra to maintain their positions. As the ceiling began to fall, the two kicked off to seek a new strategy. They kept to the border of the arena, weaving through stalagmites (you know, the Floor Ones) to maintain cover. Thier goal was to reach the lower end of the arena to find new positions to latch onto.

Upon reaching the far end, the two took similar perches. Both roosted on the top of stalagmites several feet away from each other, Writhe's being wider while Nostra's being taller. Stalagmites were very useful for cover, they acted as good vantage points and were easy to hide behind should predators get to close. Meanwhile they were useful for predators to act as high ground when the ceiling became too dangerous. 

Writhe used her position to her advantage, throwing another Blizzard into the arena. Nostra would take a different tactic from last time, using his high position to aim carefully and sending speedy blades of air toward any pokemon that tried to escape the blizzard (Air Cutter). They couldn't have pokemon leaving the Chaos zone, they might end up coming for them.

A rumbling caught the attention of the two fliers. Was someone using Earthquake? Did they want to bring the entire cave down? Were these trainers going to sacrifice themselves just to win a competition? Luckily the answer wasn't quite that drastic, but it wasn't exactly great either.

They were several feet apart, but the eruption of an aggravated Aggron caused damage to both of their stalagmites. The two flew upward, frocks nicking their skins as they tried to escape. The one the aggron would try the bite would end up being Nostra, whose superior speed would prevent a proper chomp but wouldn't leave him unscathed. 

The aggron's teeth cut one of his lower wings by an inch. The pain was minor, but Nostra would find that he could no longer have control over his flying. Panicking, he would send a flash toward the aggron and its hole. Hopefully the bright sparkling lights would confuse it enough to piss off (Confuse Ray). Meanwhile he would be forced to latch onto the cave wall, crawling around until he found a crevice that could fit him. The bodies of crobats were easily manipulated to fit into tight spaces, and he squeezed through to get away from the battle

Writhe put distance between herself and the destroyed stalagmites, creating an Aura Veil to mask her movements and provide extra protection. She flew back to the ceiling, spotting the ass end of what seemed to be a sink hole. She crawled up into it, following the tunnel to a new destination.

It was time for the Battle Royale!! That was one of Eva’s favorite parts of the previous contest. Well, that and the last part . . . This time though, there was far less pressure to perform. In order to make sure she had enough data to objectively rate the participants later on, the Doctor chose to sit back and relax for a bit and simply watch the chaos unfold before her.

Eva leaned back in her chair and propped her feet up onto the table. Emerald eyes darted towards glitch maverick who made the first move. A clever defensive using Hyper Voice and the ice to throw their opponents off guard.

The Champion kyle lopez moves next, his pokemon truly demonstrating their teamwork by feeding each other’s strengths and using the elements to the best of their ability. Eva tugged her fur-lined jacket around her tightly as the Blizzard and Hail began to fill the cavern.

Eva was stunned by the chryssa glasgow ’s Jynx. The pokemon was far more agile and power than any Jynx Eva had ever seen. The way she powerhouse across the ice on makeshift skates like Speed Skater made Eva perk up and watch closely as she approached the Ninetales.

Laurence Anderson ’s Lucario met the Jynx with his own counter measure, diverting the psychic-type’s attack elsewhere. It was a disappointing climax but chryssa glasgow and her Lynx weren’t done yet. She continued to surprise Eva with ingenuity by sending her Jynx to the cave’s ceiling where she held one by her lips. Eva would admit, even though she knew almost everything about a pokemon’s abilities this was something new to her.

oscar clayton ’s Nostra skillfully scaled the cave’s ceiling as it stalked its prey, cutting out at the Jynx with an Air Cutter. The attack sent a number of stalactite’s hurling down towards the pokemon and contestants below.

glitch maverick ’s Twizzler took care of the falling debris in a similar fashion as to their entrance. Eva, for one, appreciated not being stabbed to death by giant rocks. The doctor watched anxiously for the other pokemon to reappear up on the ceiling.

skyler dross made her move, the Lapras aiding the Sealeo and sending him shooting across the ice like a torpedo as it summoned a Hail storm into the cavern. That mustache was very impressive indeed.

Zac Ramsay finally decided to jump in with his Dunsparce. An interesting choice but Eva was excited to see what he could do with it! “Underestimated, indeed!” she clapped enthusiastically as he gather enough water for an Aqua Tail.

Eva was starting to get real sick of all the Hail and Haze and Blizzards. It was starting to get hard to see everything as oscar clayton ’s pokemon added to it.

Kazimir Wynter ’s pokemon used the sharp rocks of the biome to their advantage, chasing down several pokemon with another set of falling rocks.

@lar’s pokemon countered the onslaught of rocks with their own clever attacks. The Lycanroc looked extra stylish by doing so.

kyle lopez Always surprised Eva with his ingenuity. The slippery footing he created with a unique set of attacks was quit eimpressive!

glitch maverick broke the dam and Eva prepared her own pokemon for release by jumping to her feet. Fortunately, Laurence Anderson ’s Metagross bent the water to take a different path and went airborne with a Magnet Rise.

oscar clayton summons another Blizzard to add to the already freezing temperatures, much to Eva’s distaste. Kazimir Wynter ’s Aggron disappeared into the ground and Eva nearly exploded from the cuteness of the Lycanroc giving himself a massage on the rocks.

“Alright! Time to get in there! You’re no match for this ancient duo!” the doctor jumped onto the judges table with enthusiasm, releasing an Aerodactly and Kabutops in a flash of light. The two fossil pokemon are intimately familiar was each other. Immediately the Kabutops leapt onto the Aerodactyl’s back and the two took off into the cave.

An AGILITY gives the flying pokemon a speed advantage over its competitors. The amethyst dinosaur is lost the fury of the Blizzard, but the elements are no match for its impeccable flying skills and powerful wings. The Kabutops on its back pressed its metallic scythes together. A harsh, gut wrenching shriek of metal-on-metal echoed through the cavern, bouncing off the walls over and over again until the whole room vibrated with the uncomfortable METAL SOUND.

tl;dr: Just a lotta comments on what she sees. Eva releases an Aerodactyl and Kabutops. Aerodactyl uses Agility and Kabutops uses Metal Sound like nails on a chalk board to disrupt the chaos and draw attention to themselves.
