~The Roulette: Affecting the Course of Battle~
Battles in the Battle Arcade are manipulated by a giant roulette that
dishes out advantages and handicaps to both you and your opponent. The roulette
also
makes it possible for you to overcome a handicap by winning favorable Events,
thus pulling off an upset victory. Click this link to see the chart of events: Chart of events

Tip 1 >>> Control the roulette, control the battle!
If you can contol the outcome of the roulette, you can control
the outcome of the battle. No matter how strong your Pokemon are, bad luck at
the roulette can still do you in. So Learn how to control the outcome of the
roulette, rather then leaving it all to chance.
~Seven Conditions for winning at roulette~
1. Know the Events - Knowing what all the possible Events are and what they look like is essentila
-- so take a good look at the chart above.
2. Develop your roulette hand
- Learn how to push the button so that the roulette stops only on the Events
you want it to.
3. Help your allies
- Eventually you'll be able to stop the roulette on Events that benefit your
entire team, really boosting your shot at victory.
4. Handicap your foes - Play it crooked and try to handicap your opponents, hampering them with
status conditions like burn or poison.
5. Use the weather -Some Events change the weather, which can really boost some moves and Pokemon
or hurt others.
6. Avoid statusonditions
- Uuse Abilities and moves to avoid status conditions brought on by Events.
Try Pokemon that can Nullify Events, like the ones metioned above.
7. Recruit Pokemon of varying types
- No matter what facility you're battling at, always make sure to mix the types
of Pokemon and moves on your team -- too little diversity
makes it easy for just one Pokemon or powerful move to take your entire team
down.
Tip 2 >>> Final Evolutions - After your match with Arcade Star Dahlia, the Pokemon you face
become much stronger -- some of them are final evolutionary forms, with powerful
moves to match. Sometimes all you need to do keep up is switch around your Pokemon,
but if you're still having trouble beating them, you need to build up your team
some more.

~Uniform Type weakness~
The Pokemon that Dahlia uses in her first match with you share common type weaknesses
-- Poison, Flying, and ghost. So hit her hard with these types of moves,
and you shouldn't have much difficulty -- unless you get hit by the roulette,
that is.

Moves:
-Zen Headbutt

-???
-Fake Out
-----------------------------------------
2nd Match {49th battle}
~No Uniform Weaknesses~ -The second time you face Dahlia she's a little more diverse, with type
weaknesses across the board and more powerful moves too.
Try for an advantage on the roulette, and make sure you come prepared with your
strongest moves.
