Beyond a massive and beautifully carved stone door something begins to stir, the sound of something fierce echoing from beyond it. Those Snagems that braved the labyrinth and survived now stood before the towering slabs of stone in an equally large hallway, the size of the corridor making it apparent that it was not meant to accommodate them but something much bigger. The thing on the other side would let out one final roar before the stone doors flung open and with it came a gust of stale air, an awful musky scent flowing out with it.
On the other side of the doors was only darkness and the sound of something moving, something very big as the ground beneath their feet would tremble, the force of the tremors becoming greater as the presence got closer and closer. Soon whatever slumbered within the darkness would reveal its self in a fashion most fierce.
"Graaah!" Roared the tremendous beast as it came charging out of the darkness on all fours. Once on the other side of the doors the beast would raise up and stretch for awhile and then pound its chest with another triumphant roar. It was free!
Now in the light of the burning torches which lined the hallway of giants the Snagems could get a clear view of what they were dealing with. A creature humanoid in shape and at least twelve feet tall. It possessed bulging muscles and rugged purple skin. Its feet consisted of one giant toe each, each step shaking the ground as it walked. It hands were enormous in size, big enough to grab an average person and throw them like their were a doll. The scleroses of its eyes were bloodshot with rage but its irises were purple in color. On its giant head was a single massive horn dripping with poison, a line of smaller ones running down its neck and back. A simple leather loin cloth gave it just the smallest amount of modesty.
With a snort the 'Minotaur' would get down on all fours again and rush head first at the group of Snagems, its head lowered so that it could swing its axe-like horns when in striking range.
[The Minotaur has appeared!]

Manner of Battle
The Minotaur will be controlled by myself and all damage will be decided by myself as well, utilizing a damage calculator and all max stats (with the Minotaur's being Nidoking's, however increased). Furthermore you may be instructed to perform rolls for things such as evasion and luck.
Your Pokemon and your character are allowed a single 'action' per post. Multiple attacks may be used in a single post as long as it is within reason and can be logically chained together. Furthermore using up a healing item does not take up your entire post, you may still perform an action while healing.
After everyone participating has posted once I shall make a post declaring the damages taken and other actions performed by the Minotaur. Occasionally situations will arise where unique actions can be taken by the first person to jump on said actions such as a Voltorb appearing to throw at the Minotaur (example).
As the doors open up and the lights were turned on, I stared at the massive behemoth which was allegedly this place's guardian. "So this is the Minotaur itself, huh? I've...honestly seen tougher. But...this is only for our Pokemon to fight rrriiiiiiiahhahahaha..." I then said, staring at Dartrix, wondering what got me a bit out of whack. I started to realize the whole hitch with this place. Anything in this maze can screw you, even the so called final boss itself...Dartrix is at a severe disadvantage on a normal day even against a normal Nidoking just on typing alone. "Oh crap...well, we didn't make it this far for no reason..."
"Rroooohhhoo." The bird spoke up. The two of us then went wide eyed as the massive freight train of a Pokemon started barreling towards us. "Dartrix! Sucker Punch!" I shouted.
The Dartrix kicked off the ground then rushed for the Minotaur to deal a decisive shot to stop this hybrid.
Amaranth would find herself being ushered out of the Silver Shop as the doors holding the Minotaur back swung open, leaving her and Forge to deal with the beast... along with anyone else who happened to make it theirselves, and a hope that somehow the numbers would be enough. Seeing the Minotaur already charging and Blizzard trying to fend it off with his Dartrix, she'd nod to herself and direct her Fletchinder to attack, having him hold the Enigma Berry they found instead. Anything to help them stay in the fight. "Forge, help in the attack! Aerial Ace!" She called, watching as the bird shot through the air to send a decisive shot of his own.

"What. The. Hell?" This was something Night definitely did not expect to see. Does bring mind that she probably should have gotten a little more info on the place before she dove right in. Because the massive Nidoking s certainly a surprise.
"Okay, Himeros. Let's see if we can take this thing down. Let's start things out with Return."
Himeros rubbed against Night, burying his face in her tails for a moment, before rushing towards the large Nidoking to land his own attack.

As Lykas escaped the tunnel he'd been racing through, ducking into one narrow crevice after another to avoid death by Onix, he rolled into a massive chamber, surrounded by other Snagems. "Huh... Where'd you guys come from?" He asked a moment before Genevieve crashed into the back of his head, knocking him over and flat onto his face.
Clambering up with a laugh at the pain in his face, he looked up just in time to see the chamber doors opening up, the immense beast beyond charging out and revealing itself. "Huh...Someone's kinda horny, aren't they?" He asked of the goliathan creature. "Genevieve, I'd like to save the skewering for a celebration later. How about a Liquidation?" He asked of the Dewpider.
Genevieve nodded and used Spider Web to lift himself up toward the ceiling, where he launched off with his body cloaked in rushing water. Hi goal? Slam his bubble-covered cranium into the immense Nidoking hybrid's own head. A hit like that just might lower it's defenses, too!

As soon as the Minotaur came charging in a very annoying bird would swoop in and slug him with a Sucker Punch. While the attack stung the beast was undeterred as it continued to rush forward. While it charged forward it did not notice that its targets had gotten out of the way, that is until it was pecked by another bird, slammed into by a ball of gas, and hit by a living water balloon.
Angered that the intruders dared challenge it the massive Nidoking hybrid would stand up tall and let out an angry roar which caused the walls to tremble. The spikes on its back would begin to crackle with electricity and soon Thunderbolts would fly across the room, threatening to strike any of those unfortunate enough to be caught in its path.

"Dartrix!" I shouted as the bird gets zapped furiously. Even with the grass typing to save it, that still was a hefty amount of damage coming out of that guy.
"ROOHOO!" The bird had to retreat back; too much power that got discharged.
"Ok...may have underestimated that guy..." I said. "Alright, let's try something new in your arsenal. You haven't necessarily spread your wings fully yet, so let's see what you got! Dartrix! Leaf Blade!" I shouted.
The bird looped then dove straight at the Minotaur, its wings growing a large, green blade from each of its wings, coming down on the beast.

As Forge flung himself at the Minotaur to attack and went to return to Amaranth's side, he'd find the Thunderbolts trying to zap anything it could. Though he'd barely manage to avoid taking the attack head on, it'd still clip one of his wings and send him spiraling down. Managing to right himself in time to get further away, he'd consume the Enigma Berry at once to deal with the wounds it surely caused. It wouldn't do a thing for the Poison, however.
Rather than give the Sharp Beak back, it'd seem that Amaranth had other plans. "Okay, good..." She spoke up, giving a sigh of relief. "Just be careful and keep up the attack. Acrobatics!"
Yet again, the Fletchinder would fling himself at the Minotaur, hoping to bound into it and get away just a little easier this time.
Damage Taken: 76. 82 HP recovered immediately from the held and consumed Enigma Berry. 15 damage taken from Poison.

Lykas cheered when Genevieve slammed into the immense beast charging through the room but quickly ended up in a wild dance to dodge Thunderbolts flying throughout the room. "Genevieve, look out!" The poor bug never stood a chance. What he did, do, however, was coat his body in a shimmering, mirror-like shield for a brief moment before being hit. Being as close as he was to the Minotaur when it attacked, the sap wound up basically becoming a fried spider. Launched away from the colossal monster towering over the Snagems, Genevieve bounced off the floor with a hard thud, his water bubble barely remaining intact as Lykas rushed to his side. His Mirror Coat, however, should have done well enough to return that attack back to sender with enough force to do something. "Jeez, buddy...You look like hell.." He told the unfortunate insect. Pulling out a Max Potion from his bag, one of the only two healing items he had on him, he sprayed the tincture onto the Water-type's wounds, watching as he recovered, slowly but surely, from them.
"Think you can keep going?" He asked, Genevieve nodding in assurance and hopping back to his feet. "Let's give you a little protection against that kind of attack again..." Lykas told his partner, taking the Mystic Water tied around the spider's neck and replacing it with a rechargeable Cell Battery before he started back into the fight.

"Shake it off, Himeros. You're okay," Night called out to the Koffing. Truthfully, she couldn't help but wince slightly when the Thunderbolt hit, "Get back at that thing with Dark Pulse,"
Himeros laughed, a slightly disturbing sound coming from the floating ball of gas, as he gathered the dark energy needed to fling towards the pokemon.

Once again the attacks would pelt the Minotaur one after another, the Snagems assaulting the beast with everything they had. From what they could see the Minotaur actually took a beating in that round and it did not seem to like it. With a growl the Minotaur would get back up to its feet after falling to its knees, snorting all the while. With a slam of its tail the beast would throw its arms out and its head back as it let out a horrible roar, causing the entire place to tremble as it appeared to executed a Rock Slide, slabs of stone falling from the ceiling.
The more the angry beast seemed to go on the more energy it seemed to amass as it began to take on a rainbow colored aura not unlike that of a Totem Pokemon. It was clear that the longer it was allowed to charge up energy the more powerful it would become, the hybrids and Channelers in the group detecting its energy levels continuing to rise. Apparently the Rock Slide was intended to keep them at bay while it empowered its self further.
"Dartrix, incoming!" I shouted as the boulders came down in the area, making the Dartrix stagger back a considerable bit. With the added damage, the Dartrix had to focus, its power started to show in the leaf blades as they grew bigger and glowed green all the more fierce. "Overgrow...perfect. That might be what we need right now...hopefully." I said.
"Dartrix! Another Leaf Blade!" I shouted
"ROOOOHOO!" The bird furiously came down with even more powerful blade attack, retaliating on the beast.
In the meantime, I shouted over towards Amaranth. "Ammy!" I said, tossing the Max Revive, my insurance policy towards the woman. This was a gamble, if anything. But if that attack on that Flechinder's final breath did that much damage...we may could get out of this...

Despite the effort taken to keep Genevieve in the fight, Lykas was noticing that it was not going to be as easy as he wanted to believe it would be. "Great... This thing's gonna need to see a doctor in four hours... I just keeps getting bigger." He told the others as he felt it's energy swelling even as it attacked. "Genevieve, can you keep going?" He asked the insect as it fought to dodge the falling rocks right alongside his trainer.
"Dew dewpider pider dewpiiii!"
"Alright, alright! Just don't let it pull out a newspaper. I don't wanna peel you off the walls in here, ok?" Lykas replied, watching as his spider utilized it's Spider Web to get moving. "Go Spider Guy!" He called to the Dewpider, who, unfortunately, was distracted by the call and got thoroughly smacked by a short barrage of falling rocks. "Ouch...Sorry. Go ahead and just use Liquidation!" He ended up calling out. The water spider turned his attention back to the minotaur and hauled himself toward the the ceiling again, though this time, he ended up jumping from the ceiling to a wall and then back to the floor before jumping with his attack aimed at the massive hybrid's chin. Hopefully this one would lower it's defenses, unlike the last attempt.

In Forge's effort to bound away, he'd instead catch a slab of stone that intercepted his flight entirely. Followed by several more practically burying it, crushed under the weight of it all and taken out of the fight as quickly as it had seemingly begun. In a panic, Amaranth went to try and at least get the slabs off to free her Fletchinder. Continuing the fight, even if it had been possible, was the last thought on her mind. She just wanted to get her Pokemon out and make an escape.
With some time and effort, she'd manage to get the slabs off and finally pick up her Fletchinder from the rubble, only to have a Max Revive hit her in the head following Blizzard's call. "Ah! Um, thanks..." Using it at once and feeling just a slight bit of relief, she knew whatever she did next would need to count. There was no way another attack like that would go well for anyone here.
As soon as Forge finally managed to start flying again, thankful for the common miracle of medicine, she'd give a quick, sharp nod. "Make it count, I guess... Forge, keep going with Acrobatics!" She called at once, sending her Pokemon out to attack once more. Whatever plan was in mind, she hoped there'd be at least some success...
