Grumpy red-head strode up to the gym, hands jammed deeply into his pockets. "Another gym? You have to be kidding me!"
Incredulous, he pushed open the doors, only to be enveloped in darkness. "Nice trick," Dull voice rang out over the silence. "Maybe it would scare a six year old, but..."
Suddenly, something brushed passed his leg, sending a shiver up his spine. He paused to collect himself before continuing with his threats. "...but uh... I'm not afraid of the dark! Come out and fight me!"

A lone black light flared at the other end of the gym showcasing a man dressed in gothing like clothing, and petting his Mightyena. "Ahhh a challenger its been a long time...and trust me if your not afraid of the dark now..you will be" he said in a raspy voice. "Shadow lets get started shall we.." he said to his pokemon and looked back up at the trainer "Challenger attacks first remember" he laughed, and waited.

Wary golden eyes traced the Mightyena's movement. Response was automatic, and a single ultraball sailed through the air.
"Agility and Double Team," Defensive tactics were not typical of his battle-style, but looking at the Mightyena, he felt they were in order. The Scizor that emereged nodded, his shadow-form speeding around the gym, leaving copies of himself in the process. The copies dashed as well - a confusing sight for most.
Folding his arms in front of his chest, confident trainer tried to push the bad thoughts away. The urge to smoke was half-heartedly resisted.

"Shadow..Bite" was all the trainer said as the black light over his head turned off and the ones over the arena flickered on. The Mightyena charged forward confused, but used his nose to sniff out the real sizor, and jumped forth with its jaws outstreched.

Steel-hide blocked the majority of the damage. It would take a lot more than puny teeth to KO Zero. Without waiting for an order from Syl, metal-claws were wielded like clubs, swinging around wildly at Mightyena for a close-range attack. Copies still intact, they swirled around the gym. Violet auras radiated off each faux-Zero, staining the darkness purple.
To hell with it. Shaky hand reached for a packet, withdrawing a single cigarette. Hastily lit, Syl inhaled the satisfyingly noxious smoke.

"Howl" was the only word that came from the darkness, as shadow hid himself in the darkness as well, and a blood curling howl filled the arena which was enough to chill any man to the bone.

"Slash," A wisp of smoke was released with the command. Soothing cigarette had calmed the trainer's nerves considerably, but the darkness still gave him the jitters. Failing to see Zero or the Mightyena put him at a severe disadvantage.
Zero, however, could see in the dark. Agile Scizor raced foward, swiping at Mightyena with razor-sharp claws.

The mightyena howled in pain, but dashed around the sizor, being agile himself, and used a tackle attack, with no sound coming from the leaders part of the gym.

Clunk. Zero smirked, feeling the force of the attack. He figured the Mightyena had probably hurt it's head more than it had hurt Scizor. Metallic-hide was useful for something after all. Still, vicious full-body attack pushed him back a few paces.
Syl shrugged, hearing sounds but still unable to see. "Slash! Again. If you're even still alive," he muttered, taking another drag of his cigarette.
Mightyena apparently wasn't very intelligent. Sticking close to Scizor made for easy attacking access. Claws slashed wildly; Zero would not stop until he had spilled blood.

The claws struck home at the Mightyena's neck for a critical hit, and the pokemon went down. (zero gains a point towards leveling)"Hell...faint attack" (Ooc: why the hell dosnt this houndoom have any fire attacks) The houndoom was released, but instantly faded out, and back in behind the siczor for a vicious attack.

ooc/ I have no idea. o-o
Faint attack, being a dark element attack, inflicted more damage than normal. With a growl, Zero's claws began to glow. He psyched himself up, doubling his attack power. He glared at vicious houndoom, swinging his club-claws around in an attempt to look tough.
"Double Attack," Command was more confident. Vaguely, Syl could hear the sounds of Zero's wings flapping, rapidly cooling his steel form.
Zero nodded, lunging forward and swinging his claws around.

(AHhhh he does i missed one.) "Hell...Fire fang...." as the sizor lunged forth the houndoom dodged the attack, and lunged forth at close range with flaming fangs.

Heat surged through his body, warming Zero up and causing his muscles to constrict. He flailed, bopping Houndoom on the head with his claws, frantically trying to escape dark-type's grasp. The more fire that came in contact with him, the harder his beatings became.

The more the sizor flailed, the tighter the grip of the dog like pokemons jaw muscles became. The gym leader laughed upon seeing this knowing the flames severely hurt the speedy pokemon.

"Slash! Several of them!" Syl was aware of the struggle, but unable to do anything about it.
With a cry of anguish, razor-sharp claws ripped into Houndoom, tearing the pokemon's back, head and anywhere else it could reach. Dark claws were stained crimson.

The houndoom was beginning to feel fatigued, but it kept its grip strong despite the claw marks all over its body.

"Keep it up, Zero." Syl called. Finished with his cigarette, it was discarded casually on the floor.
Shadow-Scizor struggled to keep his grip on reality. Exhaustion setting in, club-claws became heavier and heavier, harder to lift. He tore into Houndoom's back furiously.

The houndoom finally fell to the claws of the sizor.. "Hmph" he said returning the houndoom, and let loose his absol. "Swords dance...and ambush" The absol raised its power, and then hid in the darkness and circled around the sizor, and sneak attacked him from behind.

Dark-attack proved too much for him. Zero had done well, effectively KOing two of the gym leader's three pokemon.
Sensing his pokemon had fainted, Syl re-called him. "Kei! Hyper Beam!" The battle seemed to be dragging on forever. Syl was anxious to finish it. Formerly used tactics thrown to the wind, his old strategy of brute strength prevailed.
Shining Umbreon narrowed her golden eyes, same hue as her cruel trainer's. A pinpoint of light began forming in front of her, soon bursting forward with pure power and strength. It enveloped everything around, and drastically illuminated the once dark gym with stark white light.
Syl smirked.

The absol tried to dodge the attack, but it was still grazed, and it collapsed in pain only a deft shout from his trainer made him get up and continue to battle. The absol then tried a quick attack.
