Tonights match:

Mute City F-Zeroes Vs Indigo Plateau Pokemonz

The first period was a slow one for the F-Zeroes as it usually is because they can't boost until the second lap. This incurred the Pokemonz to take quite a few early shots some very close chances from Octillery that would have perhaps gone in off the rebound if he didn't have to recharge after a hyper beam. There was a lot of possession in the F-Zeroes defensive area until finally Arcanine managed to FIRE (nudge, nudge) a shot in from the blue line. Arcanine does particularly well at Ice Hockey despite it not being in his element. On the other side there wasn't a great deal of shots getting to the net minder but when they did Graveler's iron defense kept them all out. End of first Period ended 1 - 0 to the Pokemonz and shots were 16 - 5 respectively.

The second period started out a lot better for the F-Zeroes with a quick burst from the Mighty Gazelle (now being able to boost) getting to top speed and around Graveler to tie the match up. This started to make things look a lot even and there wasn't a whole lot to despute either team. There were quite a few penalties handed out also: Bio Rex for Roughing, Tangela for holding, Mr. Mime for boarding and there was a fight between Captain Falcon and Hitmonchan. The fight ended with one big FALCON PAAAUUUNCH!!! 2nd period ended 1 - 1 and shots were 21 - 15 in favour of the Pokemonz.

The final period comes and there seems to be nothing to separate these teams. The Pokemonz can't match the speed of the F-Zeroes but on the other hand they aren't playing as many lines as the Pokemonz are which in recent years has expanded to a large number of players. Silver Neelson shows his experience with some rather technical moves but can't play as many minutes as he used to giving Pigeotto a chance to swoop in and get the pass off across the net for Aipom to get the one time slap shot. Black Shadow after this tries to cheat and clones Captain Falcon making Blood Falcon, however all this acheives is a penalty for too many men on the ice. With just minutes yet to go Clefairy starts a metronome which seemed pretty tense but nothing happened. It comes to that time where there's nothing you can do but pull the net minder for the F-Zeroes. Seconds ticking by and Rydon gets the puck and uses Horn Drill to see if he can score an empty netter from one side to the other but it doesn't work because Horn Drill has a low accuracy. Finally the F-Zeroes manage to get the goal to send them in to over time with a goal from Super Arrow assisted by Mrs Arrow.

OT begins with both teams at 2 - 2 and at this point the Pokemonz are mostly out of PP and potions giving the F-Zeroes the advantage to take the quick goal to win the game. The goal came from some good team work between Gomar and Shioh to set up Captain Falcon (who won yet another Grand Prix incidently).

3 Stars of the game went to:
1.) Captain Falcon for game winning goal and leadership.
2.) Antonio Guster being the great defensemen that nobody knows is there.
3.) Mudkipz because I herd u liek them.
