Reporting in, not live this time though. Remember my streak of 7? Well, it went on. Yesterday was game night at Blue's (like the Big Bang Theory nerds) so at some point, Blue started the Factory and got a 7 streak too. Then I went in, while Blue and Adk were playing Tatsunoko vs Capcom ignoring me and Darvor just kept trying to hit the wrong move so I would lose. My team was pretty mediocre, and even after the swaps nothing was awesome. A Mismagius with Shadow Ball, Power Gem, Magical Leaf and Memento did the job and my streak reached 14. Blue went in again and raised his streak to 14 too, in a similar way, nothing awesome, he got hax'd like crazy but made it. Pause for pizza, and after that we entered the Factory at the same time with Blue saying that one of us would win and the other would lose. My six choices at the beginning were awesome, I went with Tentacruel, Swampert and Metagross, Tentacruel and Swampert being probably my 2 favorite Pokémon for the Factory. Blue's choices pretty much sucked. 
Long story short, Blue lost his second battle and I won all 6 up to the brain without swapping a single time. Brain time. The Factory assistant informs me of a Thunder Fang using Raikou so I swap my Tentacruel lead for the Mamoswine I had defeated before. He sends in Raikou, Iron Head on Mamo for about 50%, Mamo KOs with EQ. Sends in something, uses a weak move on Mamo, Mamo stands at 10-15% and KOs with EQ. Sends in Regice, Ice Beam, Mamo is out. Metagross goes in, Hammer Arm, miss , Ice Beam, Metagross at 80%, Hammer Arm, KO. Sooo, the brain is out, streak at 21. I didn't want to play anymore yesterday but Blue wanted to see my choices in the 4th set of trainers, where Pokémon actually begin to get serious. My choices aren't really bad, I even had an Articuno which I didn't pick. The 3 Pokémon I got were:
Gyarados @ Chesto, w/ Dragon Dance, Rest, Waterfall, EQ
Electivire @ Shuca, w/ Elemental Punches, EQ
Gardevoir @ Wise Glasses, w/ Psychic, Shadow Ball, TBolt, Destiny Bond
Pretty solid team, great coverage, awesome power and a Destiny Bond. I had been warned about my opponent's Hyper Beam lead so, into the battle.
BATTLE 1!
VS Blahblahblah
Gyarados vs Togekiss
Gyarados - Waterfall (around 45% left, flinch)
Gyarados - Waterfall (KO)
Gyarados vs Ambipom
Pause. Now, if I had - somehow - predicted that move, things may have been MUCH better. Unpause.
Ambipom - Thunderpunch (KO)
Electivire vs Ambipom
Ambipom - Double Hit (2 Base Power 35 hits, boosted by Technician, STAB and Life Orb, KO)
Gardevoir vs Ambipom
Ambipom - Double Hit (oh hai, I KO you again)
DEFEAT!
Insane Ambipom is insane, even with a quite nice team, I didn't stand a chance. Too much for nothing, I can beat the first Thorton a thousand times, what happens after him though? I'll keep entering the Factory though, just because I want to get that Gold Print before Blue does.
