2vs2 double
DQ: A week.
Style: Switch
Damage Cap: 35%
Banned Moves: OHKOs, moves that involve shaking or going through the arena.
Arena: My bed.
Description: Yes, my very own comfy bed. If you see to he right, my messy room. To the left, a wall. The ref will stand on the pillow. Due to the arena being a bed, moves that involve shaking the bed (Fissure, etc.) and going through it (Dig, etc.) are banned. A sink is nearby, making Surf possible. Since the battle is on a bouncy mattress, Bounce's power is x2.
Additional rules: No Pokemon that need water, only basic stage Pokemon.

Peach listens closely, halfway up the bed. She has to hear her trainer’s commands. …What was that? Wait until everyone has already attacked before she climbs up? How would she know whether everyone else has attacked or not? She decides to wait a couple of minutes before continuing her climb up the side of the bed. Roosevelt, on top, is staring angrily at the edge of the bed. As
soon as Peach comes up, he’ll grab her and toss her into that toy chest a ways away. He grins evilly. That’ll keep her busy for a while.
To his side, Lupus Rex is beginning to mumble in his sleep. The Poochyena immediately sends out a mental tendril toward Baron, hoping to steal the Litwick’s next move for himself. Unfortunately, there’s no power welling up inside the candle that he can sense; so he can’t steal its move. He releases the grip dazily and continues to sleep on. Meanwhile, Baron, blissfully unaware of what Lupus just tried to do, turns toward Roosevelt, catching the teddy’s attention. “Hey,” he says in a confident (if a little high) voice. “What’s a little teddy bear like you doing here? Shouldn’t you be…in there?” He motions with his flame toward the toy chest. “Instead of throwing Peach in there, you should be throwing yourself instead! You’re too
weak to fight this battle!” That rant does its job well, throwing Roosevelt into a blind rage while Peach silently and stealthily crawls over the edge of the bed. Roosevelt doesn’t even notice; he’s too bent on wanting to destroy that puny candle that thinks it’s better than big bad him.
Now back on the bed, Peaches wastes no time in using what little Grass-type energy she has to reach inside Lupus’s mind. She pulls out several greenish globs of energy, which tear themselves out of the Poochyena’s body and fly toward her. She feels herself rejuvenate a tiny bit; thank goodness for that! Roosevelt watches in despair. He SO BADLY wants to kill her, and Baron too; but until his trainer orders him to do so he can’t. He can barely contain his frustration.
Lupus Rex is still sleeping, and soon begins to mumble again. He stands up shakily, eyes still closed, which gains the attention of both Peach and Baron. “Hey, Beautiful,” he mumbles tiredly, without consciously knowing what he’s doing, “I really like your style. You really know how to fight, and I admire you for that. And you’re s pretty too!” Baron shrinks away, awkwardly deciding that that little speech was meant for Peach. In the meantime, he just sits in place, letting his energy return naturally. Peach, on the other hand, is charmed by the speech. Although she knows he didn’t really know what he was doing, she likes that he was brave enough to compliment her even in his sleep! She makes a mental note to weaken her attacks on him.
…But not on his teammate. That bear was the one who had poisoned her, right? Well, she isn’t going to leave that unpunished. She channels up all the pain that the Toxic has given her, and bounces really high up. At the peak of her jump, she angles herself downward and crashes into her opponent. Roosevelt tries to slash back, but he’s struck too hard—and Peach is gone by the time he tries. Well, that just made him even angrier. He wants to kill Peach and Baron, both of them. And now he’s starting to hate his trainer for not letting him.
It’s okay, he tries to assure himself,
They’ll let me next round…
Lupus’s eyes snap open. The little hyena cub gets to his feet and shakes his head. Ah, that’s much better, now that he’s awake. He begins to wonder what he did while he was sleeping, anyway. Ah, well. He’ll ask Roosevelt later. But for now, he feels like making himself harder to hit. He immediately begins running around in a circle, not letting the bed propel him up, and soon he’s turned into a blur. When he stops, there are three identical Poochyenas following him. He shuffles with them really quickly, knowing that now he’s almost impossible to hit. Baron just watches.
Meh, I can take ‘em all out at once with a Heat Wave, he thinks as he continues to regain his energy.

Arena Notes
•Nothing out of the ordinary.
Notes
•I don’t see how Peaches would have any way to know whether everyone was done attacking, so she just waited two minutes. She ended up coming up right in the middle of Baron’s attack, though, and Teddy would have gotten her then had he not been preoccupied with Baron’s taunting.
•Lupus Rex’s first Sleep Talk yielded Me First, but since neither Peach nor Baron was using an attacking move it failed.
•His second Sleep Talk yielded Captivate, which failed against Baron but succeeded against Peach.
•Sorry, but Lupus isn’t fast enough to make five clones. He can make three at max, and that’s what he did.
•Because he was taunted, Roosevelt couldn’t use Substitute or Rest.
•For my reference, Speed Order: Surskit(65), Teddiursa(40), Poochyena(35), Litwick(20)
•If you see anything wrong, please say so.
