ANNOUNCER CHRONICLES - PART 3

One day, two rivals decided to challenge each other in a dark and dangerous cave. One battle for all the marbles. And the announcer (that's me) somehow got tangled up in that mess.

One of our combatants is holding nothing back, with the most powerful Pokemon this region knows of. As for the other...well, I don't know what that guy's thinking with the Pokemon they chose, but I've still been called up to announce the battle, so however one-sided it may be, that's what I'll do.

[OOC: Because the premise of this battle is so absurd and unlikely, but it's precisely that absurdity which creates the entertainment value I was going for, I had to luck-manipulate into this outcome. The only luck manipulation tool available to me is brute force--if the battle ever got out of hand, I would reset the N64 and start all over. Then just repeat a few hundred times. That's pretty much what went into the making of this.

You may be interested in a video that just has the pure game footage, without my voiceovers. Of course I can provide that, and since this is far shorter than any of the other Announcer Chronicles, I can even make it available at a long-term address. See http://soniccenter.org/sm/r2rivalnocommentary.avi if you want it.]
