THE FINAL CLASH

AS SOON AS THE FINAL ROUND BEGINS, kepler brueshaber releases his CINDERACE and MEGA EVOLVES it. Immediately, it uses AGILITY to raise its speed, then BOUNCES high into the air. This strategy gives Fenelle Miller time to summon her GRIMMSNARL, who endures the impact of the bunny's crash to FAKE IT OUT. [break][break]

In retaliation, MEGA CINDERACE launches a PYRO BALL, just as GRIMMSNARL reaches out with its hairs to LEECH LIFE from the rodent. The hairs pull MEGA CINDERACE close for a BITE, but a CLOSE COMBAT keeps GRIMMSNARL at bay. [break][break]

AGILITY frees up MEGA CINDERACE so it can launch another PYRO BALL at its foe. Frustrated, GRIMMSNARL closes the distance between them with STOMPING TANTRUM followed by SPIRIT BREAK. Thinking quickly, MEGA CINDERACE lashes out with DOUBLE EDGE and FOCUS BLAST, evading another nasty BITE. [break][break]

As GRIMMSNARL'S tendril-like hairs reach for another LEECH LIFE, MEGA CINDERACE BOUNCES high above the battlefield once more. It lands with devastation, a final DOUBLE EDGE blowing right through GRIMMSNARL'S SPIRIT BREAK and subsequent FALSE SURRENDER. A decisive blow, it is more than enough to clinch victory for kepler brueshaber.

END OF THE ROUND

For the last time, an alarm blares and the lights of the arena turn red, while the screen beneath the observation deck reads, "STOP." Zev Harcourt's voice resonates from the loudspeaker with a tone of finality. [break][break]

"The Gauntlet is over, and kepler brueshaber is its winner. Well fought, Executive, and congratulations. You have earned a fully constructed and functioning Genesect of your own, which you can collect in the front lobby."[break][break]

"All participants, including Brueshaber, will receive smaller rewards for their efforts. You can pick these up on your way outside the building."

[break]

All the lights return to their normal, yellow-white color, but no bell chimes. Instead, both doors of the arena open, the one leading up to the observation deck and the other leading out the front entrance. Metal bridges extend so that all contestants and members of Rocket leadership can leave.[break][break]

REMINDER: THIS EVENT ICLY TAKES PLACE IN MAY, AFTER PRISMATIC PENITENTIARY.
