((Three things. Since Dragon Dance doesn't deal damage there was no point in doing damage calc at all. Secondly the move MISSED so you do nothing. Lastly you forgot to roll.))
((To answer the question however, when such a move actually succeeds, you add +1 to the appropriate stats, something which is clearly indicated by our description of Dragon Dance in the Information Center. It would look something like this.))
">What does my parent's mated status have to do with this?<" Fable would ask a bit naively, having taken the comment of him being a b*****d rather literally. His tail would flick once curiously when the Cacnea never answered, instead returning to the game. Perhaps he'd receive an answer during the next round. Shuffling around a bit in an attempt to keep himself straight, the Charmander would slowly begin pushing the rocks one at a time, adjusting himself after each roll in an attempt to keep them lined up.
╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Stumbling over the holes that were created by the Trapinch, Sasori was beginning to worry about Scraggy's well-being already. But he had to remain positive. No wonder what else the Nightmare would make him see. Scraggy had stepped into a hole, thus leaving his foot out for the Trapinch to get it. "Get out of there quickly Scraggy!". Scraggy was already timid enough to battle, now he had to deal with getting attacked by the Trapinch at any minute, popping out at any of these holes in the ground.

The tyrogue launched an attack as soon as they accepted the battle. It left them almost no time to prepare for attack. "Dod-"Theo began to issue the command, but stopped and changed it to"Stay put!".He noticed something different than earlier, the tyrogue's eyes didn't gleam red like the fight previously. Yes, this attack won't do anything to Midnight. Instead, they should use this chance to prepare for counter.

It would seem that Theo didn't know his move's that well, something Midnight dearly would as the Tyrouge's fist came forward. The sounds of the impact would be jarring, the gleaming silver fist thrusting into the Litwick's cheek before the other slammed into her gut, followed by a sharp jab to her head from the side. Bullet Punch wasn't a move they could so easily avoid, and for one simple reason. It was Steel-Type; a fact they should have been thankful for. If the Litwick had been anything else in the Ghost-Type family tree, the damage would have been twice what she received.
">Oi oi! Given up already!? Camon! We barely started!<" The Tyrogue barked as he leaped back, putting his fists up in front of him in a very cliché guard. They'd officially failed to impress him; but the battle was just getting started!
Another taste test from the Trapinch and once more Sasori's Pokemon would be starring into the black abyss; unlike the Poochyena however his Scraggy was merely unconscious. Out cold in a single blow. Clearly he wasn't having much luck against this particular Pokemon.
Theo didn't knew that move. He had assumed that it was a fighting type from the glowing fist. Midnight was being punched repeatedly and painfully because of his fatal mistake. Thankfully, Midnight was able to endure the attack. Theo won't let himself to show any weakness and maintained his calm expression. If he faltered, it would affect his pokemon's confidence and trust in him." Use Ember", the tyrogue distanced itself immediately after attack,but it shouldn't be a problem for Midnight.
Midnight's flame flared up and flame would shoot out toward the tyrogue, it would make a straight line. "Whip it"Theo's sudden command would make Midnight to swing her head,making the ember lashed like a whip. It would follow where her opponent decided to dodge.

(Considering there is a number of moves using the word Punch which aren't Fighting-Type, I'd say that choice is...rather unwise. sweatdrop )
(9 - 7) + (10 - 9) = 3 DMG
Tyrogue HP: 17
Unexpectedly the Tyrouge wouldn't make even the slightest attempt to dodge, and for it the Ember would only barely brush over him. The damage had been half what he himself had dished out, and that was when using his weakest attack. The pair would have to step up their game if they wanted to have any hope at winning this. ">Weak lil' %$#@ aren't ye? Pft, not even worth da warnin!<" The Pokemon barked at the two of them before dashing forward. His feet moved with blinding speed, as did his now silvery fists. Another Bullet Punch; seemed he was still taking it easy on them!
How unfortunate. If only Sora had listened to his instincts the first time, maybe he couldn't avoided the demise of Scraggy. "Scrag-......Scraggy!" he shouted as Scraggy disappeared into mist soon evaporating into the air. Fortunately for Sora this was the Dream World. Had it been reality, he would've lost his Scraggy along with this best friend Poochyena. Dammit! I knew I should've just left. He gripped the last pokeball containing the last pokemon he had left with him, Vullaby. No! He couldn't take a chance of Vullaby getting sent away too. He wanted to capture that Trapinch, but there were times where just running away was a better option. With his eyes watering, he turned on his heel and ran away from the Trapinch before it could do anymore damage.

The girl had failed once more in one way, but she was successful in another. Afterall, she had saved the one whom have saved her, and that was enough for Nakano as she would continue onwards.
"Let's go ...Suzaku."
She would tell the metal bird even as Carrot would bound behind her. She wasn't sure how far she needed to go, but she was sure on one thing ....they weren't going to stop any time soon.
(4/10 --Holy ....Absol ...i wasn't expecting to roll another one)
Despite her own mental declarations, Nakano would find herself halting in her movements quite soon indeed. The section of the canyon she was standing in had suddenly grown dark, and a simple tilt of the head upward would explain why. Absol. Dozens of them lined the uppermost portion of the canyon, all of them looking down upon her with gleaming red eyes. Resting on their haunches the group, a pack perhaps, would let out a low ominous howl which seemed to echo for miles. In response to this cry another would appear. It began as a faint sparkling on the horizon, quickly growing more brilliant as the possessor arrived.
Yet another Absol, but unlike his companions this one looked upon her with a set of brilliant green eyes, his fur standing apart from shadow, a shimmering bloody scarlet. Each step of the beast was graceful, deliberate, the atmosphere seeming to change in his presence. Serene, perhaps even regal, the Dark-Type almost seemed to possess the barring of the king. This creature was no mere herald warning of disaster, he was the calm before the storm; and Nakano would now find him staring directly at her, eyes set in a way which seemed to challenge her, but not to mere battle.
((Alright two things Panda. First and foremost the Scraggy didn't die, it only fainted. Meaning it is very much still there unlike your Poochyena which is gone till the end of the event. Secondly you never would have been able to capture the Trapinch. Your actions had already literally made that impossible.))
Venturing further into the dream world, and away from the disaster which was his first encounter, the young lad would next find himself with yet another odd rustling of the bushes. This time the culprit was a Phanpy, carefully picking through a rather large pile of berries. Picking out one which seemed rotten and gooey, she'd thrust in her trunk, ripping out the seed before tossing it backward at what appeared to be a makeshift target.
The tyrogue was looking down on them as it didn't even try to dodge their attack. The attack hit it directly,but didn't do any noticeable damage. Their level were different, if they didn't hit the pokemon with strong attack, it won't do much. Theo knew that and yet he won't stop struggling to survive. " To you we are weak. Yet,that's why we fight "There was determination in his eyes, he would do his best and fought. " Midnight,dodge " it was the same attack and Midnight would try to dodge the attack by moving out of the way.

The girl would expect a happy ending, afterall, she had saved an Absol, but it hadn't taken more than a few steps for her to find out that ...that that that wasn't going to happen. Nakano would freeze as a steel wing would flicker in her path way, and Suzaku would spread her feathers in her own display of aggression as Carrot would run in front of her.
He would stand beside the steel type pokemon and his own fur would be fluffy as well. A sign of intimidation is always to make themselves look bigger ....as his tails would flicker to and from .....as the ears would lay flat against his skull.
Nakano was looking around them. She could see the group of Absol's their eyes glowing red, and their fur was glossy white. She couldn't help ...smiling broadly. But, then he showed up ....the male ..the leader, and her eyes would lock with his. The pokemon would growl and she almost swoon as dollar figures ..something strange for the girl to think about would pop up in her head.
This pokemon was obviously a fighter, but better yet, he was shiny. A strong shiny ...in the wild is a rarity beyond anything. And, the thought of what his pup's might be worth, and the assess he would become to her team ...she said it without thinking.
"He is badass!"
Nakano would declare out loud as her two pokemon would both roll their eyes. She was more than ready to do this.
The two electric squirrels met and it was obvious that the other was stronger. Huffing slightly in annoyance, Loki chattered angrily. "She is happiest this way. Who am I to crush her dreams?" The Emolga's fur puffed up to make him look bigger. He could take a hit or two but he would have to be more careful. What would happen if he lost?! No, he couldn't let that happen. No harm would come to her while he could still move! The electric pokemon charged, aiming to slam into his opponent with another Quick Attack! He'd show him that he wasn't weak and that he would protect his love even if it resulted in his death!
