Munchkin vs. Aletheia (Cereal Edition)

very good! a proud day for the Emperor's Empire, whatever that may be...

let's let Eno have a go at it, then! on a non-icy oat, please

normally that icky Synchronize would prevent us from doing much ailment inflicting, but of course we can't be paralyzed >:) so Thunder Wave on the first action, follow that up with a Charge Beam in case that abra isn't aware of your typing! (if it turns out you can't use thunder after all, Charge Beam on the first action as well) there's not much else we can do but attack with this moveset, so... since thunder is such a controversial topic, go with Signal Beam until that's covered. if a Protect is up, Feint

Thunder Wave/Charge Beam/Feint~Charge Beam/Feint~Signal Beam/Feint
 
Ok so that could've turned out better, but eh. Make a Substitute first cause paralysis is ew. Then put up a Light Screen cause super effective is ew too, and your sub should still be there.

Then, if your sub is still there and Eno got both stat boosts, use Psych Up so you can have some boosting too! Sharing is caring, after all. If your sub is up but Eno got only one or no stat boosts, try Toxic. If you can't use those for some reason and/or your sub is gone at this point, idk bro hit him with a Shadow Ball so maybe his special defense can go down *crosses fingers*


Substitute (15%) ~ Light Screen ~ Psych Up / Toxic / Shadow Ball
 
3vs3 single
DQ: 10 days
Damage Cap: 33%
Battle type: Set
Banned Moves: OHKO's, suicide moves, direct healing, weather moves, most Ground-type moves (Earthquake, Mud-Slap, etc.)
Arena: A Bowl of Lucky Charms

Either everyone has been shrunken temporarily or this is one seriously huge bowl of Lucky Charms cereal! Typically, only one Pokémon could fit comfortably on a single marshmallow or oat bit, but if they are small enough or are flexible enough to position themselves appropriately, both battlers may stand on the same piece of cereal. Every edible platform in this gargantuan bowl is floating in creamy, cold, white milk. While this milk is as smooth as and can be used in the same ways as water, Pokémon submerged within it are virtually blind, as you can't exactly see through such an opaque white liquid. Any Pokémon with a flame on its body will receive 1% damage for every action that its flame is submerged. An invisible force-field is in the form of a dome above the bowl, completing it to make a sphere shape - because of this, the Pokémon cannot exit the cereal bowl. The ceiling of a kitchen can be seen far above the bowl.

The oat bits are either an X-shape or in the shape of the number 4. There are various kinds of marshmallows, including pink hearts, blue half-moons, green clovers, purple horseshoes, shooting stars, red balloons, orange "pots of gold", "rainbows" (actually just an arch of pink, yellow, and blue), and golden doors. While it won't happen if the marshmallow is simply floating around, a key-shaped hole will appear in the golden doors if they are drenched with water and/or milk.

At any time, either Pokémon may use one action to consume part of an oat bit (never a marshmallow!) or some milk. The oat will heal 5% health, while the milk will restore 3% of both health and energy. Every round, there is a 5% chance that a giant will eat some cereal with a proportionate silver spoon. While neither Pokémon nor humans within the bowl will be eaten, some bits of cereal may be scooped up and a tiny wave will travel throughout the bowl, which would probably knock most Pokémon into the sea of milk. After this, the cereal will not be replaced, so it will be a bit more difficult to maneuver with less to stand on.

At the end of the round, there is a 20% chance for both Pokémon to munch on an adjacent marshmallow. What type of marshmallow is chosen at random, and they have the following effects:

- Pink heart: Restores 7% health
- Blue half-moon: The effects of Gravity take place for the duration of the next round.
- Green clover: The Pokémon's attacks will all start at a critical hit domain of one higher than normal for the duration of the next round.
- Purple horseshoe: For the next round, the Pokémon's speed is increased by 1.
- Shooting star: For the next round, the Pokémon take the form of each other. They have access to each other's ability and movepool, but the health and energy remains based upon who is commanding the Pokémon. If both nibble on shooting stars, nothing happens.
- Red balloon: For the next round, the Pokémon gains the ability to consensually hover. If it could already hover or fly, its speed is increased by 1 instead.
- Orange pot of gold: The Pokémon's trainer gains an extra $1 at the end of the battle, not exceeding a maximum of $3 as a result of this bonus. If the $3 limit is reached and this marshmallow is nibbled again, the Pokémon instead regains 5% health.
- Rainbow: The Pokémon's type changes each action of the next round to ensure it doesn't receive super-effective damage. At the end of the next round, its typing is returned to normal.
- Golden door (solid): Safeguard is activated for this Pokémon during the next round.
- Golden door (keyhole): The Pokémon gains +1 Attack and Special Attack for the next round.

Other: Only basic- or baby-stage Pokémon may be used.
Concerning the marshmallows, I do mean both Pokémon. So if they nibble on marshmallows at the end of the round, both Pokémon will do so, though the marshmallow nibbled will probably be different for each. In essence, there will never be a round where one Pokémon nibbles a marshmallow while the other doesn't.

Also, just as another note, all Rock-type moves that require the rocks to already be present use cereal pieces instead. As a result, they do 2% less damage after all other calculations.

Commands: Thunder Wave/Charge Beam/Feint ~ Charge Beam/Feint ~ Signal Beam/Feint
Status: Lively and determined.

Aletheia recalled her valiant Nidoran, the ice on his oat still mostly intact as Cel’s legs sublimed, transitioning into red light that was quickly sucked back into Aletheia’s outstretched Pokeball. From her belt she grabbed another ball. This one contained an incredibly energetic creature, Brian Eno the Elekid. Though small, Eno was not intimidated at all by his opponent, who continued to shake milk out of his orifices. Eno began to spin his arms at a blistering speed, and soon sparks were jumping back and forth between his two horns.

Ryui saw Eno start charging up, and knew he had to work fast in response. He drifted over to a clump of oat bits, held together by some congealed sugar. Purposefully he smashed the oat clump to bits, creating a miniature cereal shard and milk volcano. Gathering the fragments together, he used the milk and sticky sugar to begin moulding a mannequin, one that was vaguely Abra shaped. The doll he fashioned was nearly complete, the ears all that needed some adjusting, when Eno began to send his arms whirring again. Soon the bolts of electricity between his horns became more numerous as Eno took control of more energy. As Ryui put the finishing touches on his mushy clone, Eno released one streak of electricity that advanced jaggedly through the air towards Ryui. About to pour lifeforce into the figure, Ryui froze as he felt the electricity strike his back, static charges quickly spreading throughout his body. He felt his limbs clamp up, and he had to use his new model to stay afloat.

Ryui new how to react in situations like these, and he quickly disconnected from his aching physical form and descended into his mind. Before it would be expected, he launched a mental blitzkrieg against Eno, trying to balance their physical states. Unfortunately, as Ryui tried to transfer static electricity back towards Eno, he noticed no resistance. To the contrary, Eno seemed to crave the electricity, feeding off of it. Ryui opened his eyes slightly and saw Eno’s arms whirling once more, his face euphoric. Realizing his attempts were futile, Ryui turned back towards his substitute and, through his claws, shifted lifeforce into the doll. As Ryui let go and struggled to tread milk, the sub did not waver in the choppy milk, instead bobbing to the no-man’s land between the two battlers, like a protective buoy.

Eno did not seem to tire even a smidgeon. His arms began to rotate even faster, now appearing as complete blurs to all watching, like neon fans. From his horns a concentrated beam was unleashed, darting straight for Ryui, who felt helpless as crippled as he was. At the last second, Ryui’s likeness jounced in front of the gleam, taking the attack. Ryui breathed a sigh of relief, not having to suffer through more of a shock. Still, he could see the pain was going to come later. A quick look at Eno’s horns saw that they now emitted a white glow, the power skipping back and forth between them now wrapping around the protrusions. With a sinking feeling, Ryui realized how pumped Eno was becoming.

Coincidentally, Ryui had just the strategy to render that charge null and void. Awkwardly jerking over to a lone marshmallow, the Abra rested upon the treat while he concentrated elsewhere. His eyes squeezed shut again, he began to summon a glimmering shield, ivory in color, that sunk into the milk and stretched up to the edge of the dome. Effectively, the screen cut the bowl in half, Eno on side, Ryui on the other. Eno’s sculpture continued to bounce up and down, fluctuating between the two sides of the barrier, showing that physical objects were unhindered by the wall.

The only hint that Eno’s next attack would be any different was the change in colour of the pulses above his head. No longer white and yellow, they transitioned to bright blues and reds, the colours appearing in alternating flashes. With another few spins for good measure, two beams burst forth from Eno’s head, one red and one blue. They seemed to leapfrog each other through the air, each beam edging ahead of the other for a millisecond or two before it was overtaken again. Ryui’s sub lethargically moved behind the divider. When the beams crashed into said buffer, a good chunk of their energy was absorbed by the barrier, red and blue splotches appearing, before quickly melting away. The beams were much less potent as they passed the barricade, appearing more as threads than ropes. Still, they impacted Ryui’s second line of defense, the cereal statue, and sent it spinning backwards counter clockwise. The beams ripped a solid chunk of oat off of the figure, the coagulated mess falling back down into the milk. Ryui’s creation was just barely intact.

But it was enough to give him protection for at least one action more. Still keeping a firm hold on his marshmallow, a slightly deformed rainbow, he made noises that sounded to Eno as if he was clearing his throat. Rather, he was bringing something up his esophagus. Laced with stomach acid, he had coughed up his last meal. Before the gastric liquid started to corrode his tongue, he spat the amorphous sludge at Eno. The blob shot through the air, past the dilapidated substitute, through the dimming boundary, and right for Eno, who was thrown off by the fact that he was actually being attacked. He tried to raise his arms to block the goop, but it splattered against his hands and on his face. In seconds, the muck had disappeared, all absorbed into his skin. In its wake, Eno was left only with a few purple stains on his bright fur.

It was cute how Thunder used the kitchen light to draw energy :3

D'oh. I should've checked the speed, my bad for assuming you were faster, Ryui! Anyway, since you have one peaceful action, you can use Psycho Shift to get rid of your paralysis. Eno won't get paralyzed but eh might as well just give that paralysis back. Try that until you succeed. Then, if he tries to throw some more status ailments at you, Protect or use Magic Coat. Otherwise, use Psychic for pain.

let's break that sub with another Charge Beam for the stat boost! I'm not sure how sensitive Ryui is to this status ailments clause, so go with some easy Thiefs instead- go ahead and be as physical as you can, maybe we can stun him again ;o

The patches of gunk on Eno’s fur were given no chance to disappear before the Elekid was off to the races again. No sense crying over spilt milk. Eno’s propeller appendages were putting on a show again, and electricity crackled in the air around the smirking Elekid as a result. Thrusting his arms forward melodramatically he released a yellow beam that trained on the disfigured substitute. The beam, though weakened by the shining wall separating the two battlers, pierced straight through the makeshift Ryui. Light burst from both his front and back for a few moments before it exploded, pieces of oat flying everywhere. Some landed on the milk while some ricocheted off of the invisible dome resting atop the bowl. Ryui was now out in the open, perfect for Eno, who now had even more sparks dancing between his horns.

Frightened at the prospect, the Abra quickly went to work remedying the situation. Still rafting, he put his bevy of psychic powers to good use, masterfully infiltrating the mind of his adversary. The workings of Eno’s brain were impressive. In contrast to the orderliness of Ryui’s own consciousness, Eno’s thoughts were frenzied and overwhelmingly energetic. Ryui couldn’t keep anything straight as different quips and pondering zoomed past in every which direction. Ignoring the tempest for a second, he quickly transferred the electricity coursing through his muscular tissue into Eno’s own body. Whereas in normal circumstances a manoeuver such as that would have rendered Eno confined himself, the Elekid seemed to greedily suck up the electricity, eager to gulp up more fuel. As Ryui finished, he was happy that he could now move freely again, but still a bit thrown off by Eno’s exuberance.

The Elekid was unrelenting. This time, he dived headfirst into the chilling milk, trusting his inner vitality to keep him warm. Ryui surveyed the area apprehensively before Eno burst forth again, this time glowing with a black aura. His strokes were powerful as he advanced towards Ryui, passing the Light Screen with ease. Face-to-face, he delivered a quick chop to Ryui’s forehead, sending him into a temporary daze. With a few seconds of grace, he searched the Abra for any sign of a possession. Seeing none, and feeling his time run out, he deigned to merely bonking Ryui on the head for a second time, making the Abra grunt in displeasure. It wasn’t pretty, but it was getting the job done.

Ryui wasn’t going to let Eno get away so soon. As the Elekid whipped back away from the Abra, Ryui finally decided it was time to inflict some respectable pain. Eno soon found himself crawling through air, having been lifted above the milk to a very vulnerable position. He was thrown off by his opponent’s decision to finally do something meaningful to him. He was not surprised for long. With a deft touch and zero physical movement, Ryui began to twirl Eno around, rendering him far too dizzy for his liking. Then, still a bright yellow carousel, Ryui tossed Eno around the bowl, sending him every which direction he pleased. From freezing milk to jarring energy shield, Eno was naught but a rag doll. Finally relenting, Ryui was pleased to see the smirk gone from Eno’s face.

The two continued to spar. Eno sped forward again to deliver a few more quick blows to Ryui’s abdomen, starting to result in some bruises. Ryui showed no more mercy. For Eno, it was another turn on the Tilt-a-Whirl-of-Anguish, his body parts trailing him everywhere as he was bullied around every corner of the makeshift stadium. Ryui almost looked like he was having fun. As he let Eno plop back into the milk, he started as, in a flash, his vision was hampered. It was as if someone had draped a towel over the bowl. Looking up, both battlers saw the source of the gloom. Above them was a giant man, his shadow casting the bowl into darkness. In his colossal hand was a polished, silver, spoon. Ryui could hardly make out the face of the giant, but he thought he could see him licking his lips. Guess it was the judgement day. The spoon swooped down and took up a bundle of oats and marshmallows, undoubtedly delicious for the bowl’s owner. The wake sent Eno and Ryui floundering around the now emptier bowl. From above, a resounding “mmmmmmmm” bellowed.

alright! we're doing great, all buffed up and stuff ;o

that Light Screen's going to be a bit pesky despite your stat boosts, though, so let's go for a Body Slam instead; after that you can go back to your flashy light stuff with a couple Signal Beams. if any of your offense is blocked, just Chill

Idk man there's like no pretty way out of this that I can see (maybe I'm blind idk) that's really cool, so go with Bide. Off the top of my head, I think he'll hit the cap but you won't..? Eh, just go for it.

Ryui’s limbs were still flying in every direction as the next round began. Half-submerged and still being carried by the wake, the Abra lunged for a more stationary oat bit, digging in his claws just hard enough to keep grip but prevent the cereal from crumbling. From there, he relaxed into a tranquil state, his mind a carefree vista. He would be content to remain motionless for a few actions. Eno was also trying to recover from the tidal chaos, his stubby arms hardly keeping him afloat. He chose a marshmallow to hold on to, regaining his bearings in the milky tumult. He cast his gaze towards Ryui and was pleased to see him fairly motionless, though the red aura he emitted was slightly alarming. Nevertheless, Eno paddled his marshmallow closer to the Abra, who saw and heard nothing in his catatonic state. Once close enough, Eno heaved himself up onto the marshmallow, precarious but on two feet. The Elekid sprang into the air, sending the marshmallow tottering away. Performing an exquisite bellyflop, Eno landed right on Ryui’s ears, sending them both into the depths of the bowl. Eno, having delivered his lumbering blow, hurriedly swam to the surface. Ryui, hardly registering the damage, slowly floated upwards, not seeming to need to breathe any longer.

The Abra contained to direct all attention to matters of meditation, so Eno went right ahead with his next attack. Like the serpents of a caduceus, two intertwined red and blue beams began to wrap around Eno’s protrusions. As these beams elongated and thickened, the shimmering screen separating the battlers gave its last flicker. Ryui was now dangerously exposed, the path clear between adversaries. Said route was taken by the twin beams, chasing other towards the floating Abra. No longer inhibited, the two surges of energy advanced at an impressive rate, knocking at Ryui’s head in a matter of seconds. Within his ear canal, a dreadful drone expanded as a result of the beams, but Ryui could no longer hear anything. He was content to absorb it all.

Eno was not opposed to continuing the treatment. From his plug-like ears two more beams appeared, looking eager to charge at Ryui themselves. The Elekid deigned to it, and the pulses rushed off across the bowl, a bright yet repetitive Charleston of energy. These two did the same as the last, colliding with Ryui’s head but causing no visible effects. Eno looked on a bit dejectedly. Was he really doing that little to faze him anymore?

Finally, Ryui awoke. His eyes snapped open as the aura around him expanded, almost blinding Eno. To complete the harrowing effect, the Abra’s eyes shone the same bloody crimson. With the force of a thousand Machamp’s, Ryui launched off from the oat bit, almost seeming to glide through the milk. He only needed two colossal front strokes to bring him to Eno, each ferocious windmill seeming to tear through the milk. Ryui arrived at Eno carrying so much force that a wayward oatbit that got in his way was disintegrated. Ryui walloped Eno, sending him through the air across the length of the bowl. He endured even more pain as he crashed into the rim of the bowl, his spine bending backwards at a gruesome angle. Still, the Elekid took it well. As he fell back down into the milk he gritted through the numerous aches and hugged a marshmallow. This was war. On the other side of the bowl, Ryui had a small moment of panic as he tried to tread in the opposite direction. As he had struck Eno, a few sparks of residual energy had transferred over, leaving him crippled. The Abra attempted to swing his lame arm in frustration. This was definitely war.
