    oh yeah, I was combing my brain for why I hadn't tried to Rest before and I couldn't figure it out. Insomnia is the reason why.

    You've done good work, Gwen, but unfortunately, it looks like we're backed into a corner. We have precious few priority moves that could be in any way useful, so I guess we've just got to grin and bear our fate. ...But if by some miracle you manage to survive the first Dazzling Gleam, or if by...

    Okay, so Adelle's probably going to try to use Psychic or Telekinesis to try to get you down from the bridge. Wait to see whether she does, and if so, Protect against it to waste her energy. Otherwise, I guess let's keep trying to bug her and disrupt her remaining chills. Send down an...

    Um...... I'm actually pretty sure we've been backed into a corner here, Gwen??? If we let you get hit with those Giga Drains, my very hurried back-of-the-napkin math says you'll be 2HKOable next round, but if we avoid them, she gets off a bunch of Chills and you won't really have much of a...

    Hmm umm so now realistically, we're gonna have to win by energy consumption rather than by health. SO wait to see what Adelle's gonna do and then... > IF Adelle tries to Chill, THEN disrupt her with an annoying Infestation > IF Adelle uses a damaging move, THEN Protect against it > IF Adelle...

    Hmmm, this is a pickle, isn't it. Well, String Shot's description describes it as "incredibly strong, incredibly sticky," so let's try and take advantage of that by making a lasso out of it and tossing it up onto the bridge to try to pull Adelle down here onto our level! Ideally, Superbird...

    Yeah, makes sense to me!

    Good work, Gwen! You are a true spider-Gwen who does whatever a spider-Gwen does. Rather than overthink your commands for this round, I think I'll just go for broke and hope that being uncomplicated means few loopholes to take advantage of. Use Sludge Bomb until Adelle's poisoned, at which...

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    Um, so this is kind of going to depend on how you ref the flavor of Telekinesis, Superbird. If it's reffed as a "bubble" of psychic energy that holds its contents prone in the air, as I ref it and typically see it reffed: If Telekinesis is reffed in some way that I can't get Adelle into the...

    Ugh, another mage with a huge movepool. Well, I guess we'll just have to counter with Gwen for her defensive advantage, even if she doesn't have super-effective STAB. I am only being mostly sarcastic when I say I hope being doubly weak to 20-power Grass Knot won't be too troublesome for us...

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    WHOOPS I meant to write commands ages ago but I contemplated and second-guessed so much that I forgot to actually post anything and I don't think I have any clever plan that Eifie will be unable to exploit, oops So I guess let's just, uh, Aerial Ace since it can't miss? If you believe you can...

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    We're gonna start with a combo, alright. Not a Double-Edge combo, but a combo nonetheless. Pokey, I want you to use the power of your emotions — either Return or Frustration, whichever you're feeling more — to put some extra oomph into the weak-spot-targeting, critical-hitting technique of...

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    (Another thing I just noticed as I was perusing your reffing quirks document, Superbird: shouldn't Pokey's paralysis have improved to the harsh/bad level by now?) Hmmm, anything we haven't already done would be pretty nonoptimal (Facade is locked away; Uproar and Natural Gift are no better than...

    I'm totally OK with the revision!

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    omigosh Attract is not banned in this battle, this is ridiculously cheap but so was Telekinesis + Zap Cannon Okay, Pokey, we're not going to be able to block Cool Beauty from using that Substitute, but we really want her not to take your item or have access to Sludge Bomb. Imprison I don't care...

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    Okay that plan's out, so I guess we can just, like, lob a ton of Sludge Bombs at her or something? because sure, moles can spit balls of grime, that makes sense If she's kind enough to neither hit you super-effectively nor inflict a status (including minor statuses like confusion and attract)...

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    Ummm this is probably really cheap and/or really stupid of me, but I feel like trying anything more complicated when commanding first this early in the battle would just bite me in the butt even more. Pokey, you're faster, so start by digging down! Stay down there for the whole round, waiting...

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    I'm going to regret pointing this out, but shouldn't this have been the clause that determined Cool Beauty's move on the second action? (also p.s. Pokey is a boy)

    [15] Eifie vs JackPK (ref: Superbird)

    Hey! We don't have a ton of Special moves in our movepool, so I'm A-OK with getting our Special Attack lowered by Mystical Fire. In exchange, set up a medium Substitute (15%) to ensure she doesn't confuse us on the next action, and hopefully soak up whatever she uses on the third action, too...

    damn, I was really hoping not to send out first... After much deliberation, I'll start with Pokey! diglett
