I haven't read the response posts yet, but Omnisroth might just, might just, survive the onslaught.

It's still badly poisoned, remember? That's 1/8 of health this round. If Endeavor gets it down to at least 12.5%, it's dead before it acts. Unless the Syncstrike occurs before poison does its damage.

No wars, but as a nation, it's much closer than other nations to discovering the truth behind Pokémon (the appearance of Ruin Pokémon in Honmyr first is a big clue-in). The horrible, forbidden, ruinous truth.

Might as well mention Impact's motivations now. You'll notice that in my profile I posted a psychological assessment, analyzing Impact. Not, in fact, my own description.
I'll reveal more of this later, but basically, while he does hate pokemon, he's no mindless rage-machine. He gave in to hatred once, when he killed the Pidgeot. After that he started channeling it.
Impact sees it as his duty to protect people from pokemon. I'll have him tell the group about his time in the military, in a slayer squad, when his job was just that.
He sees this duty as split into two sections:
Everyday life: He's a member of the police force (or, previously, a vigilante) and he tries to hinder individual uses of pokemon to hurt ordinary people, non-trainers. Or even trainers, if their pokemon are used solely for companionship or such. What he hates is uses of pokemon by individuals to increase their own power or competence.
Which leads in to the
Grand Scale: Impact's convinced that pokemon and humans cannot live together. No matter how strong or powerful or smart pokemon are, they allow themselves to be used and enslaved by trainers. It is not slavery inasmuch as they perform service unwillingly, but as they perform service unquestioningly. And in the process, they give humans power and, often, freedom from its repercussions. It's basically his large-scale goal to restore society's independence from pokemon, to make trainers and pokebrids illegal. Of course, every trainer and pokebrid he sees is a symbol of the corrupting interaction between humans and pokemon.
...
Anyway, what this is all leading up to is that if pokemon turn out to be indeed ruinous and corruption is ever a subject, he will say "I told you so" so very hard.
Edit, after post. Ouch. That... hurt. And the fact that Omnisroth survived Charlotte's attack was slightly annoying. Still, good kill for Imact. Wasn't necessary, as the poison would have (most likely) finished it off, but still. Impact can put one hell of a notch in his gunbelt. And another one's to come. Dibs on killing the Gendom.
Would one attack by Impact be enough, or would another be necessary?
Anyway, let's look who's left alive:
3 Paralyzed Pulverots
3 Narchams
1 Gendom
I'll have Impact attack the Gendom. If Renny deploys Swampert next, it could go Outrage on one of the Narcham's asses. If Rachel heals Matt in time, we should be able to take out another Pulverot with a Registeel/Psychic/Rio combo. Mike's Charizard should be able to kill another Narcham. Pierce could maybe deploy his Skarmory and support Impact against the Gendom. If the Gendom dies in one hit, Skarmory could attack the remaining Narcham. Same for Charlotte's Arcanine.
That'd leave us with
2 Paralyzed Pulverots
1-0 Narcham
Unless, of course, the Gendom would still survive after being savaged by Pierce, Charlotte and Impact, in which case the situation'd be
2 Paralyzed Pulverots
2 Narchams
1 Gendom
if we went with above plan.
If the Gendom'd survive three combined attacks, I say that Mike's Charizard should hopefully be enough to finish it off.
Of course, if the Gendom has tons of HP, Charlotte could re-deploy Spitz and go for another Super fang. Then Impact could hopefully kill it with Skarmory's help. Yeah, let's do that. Super Fang, Impact's blade, Skarmory's Iron wing. If Impact's blade is enough, Iron wing goes against one of the remaining Narchams.
Is that good?
