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.

Status: Upset with his unstable raft.
Chi, though usually not afraid to take chances, was not confident in her abilities to succeed based on what her trainer was asking of her. She was pretty sure she couldn’t even surf on a piece of cereal, let alone surfing with the intent of landing on one. Instead, she took the safer route, and with a black flash, disappeared, leaving the milk tranquil in her wake. Cel was immediately spooked. Making sure to keep his balance, he twisted left and right, looking for any sign of the Sneasel. As he flipped around to face the other side of the bowl, he felt a sharp pain in his back, and his legs buckled. Grimacing, he flipped his head back around and saw Chi, mysteriously present once more, snickering and bouncing away onto another piece of cereal. Cel righted himself and faced Chi, who had established herself a couple of bits away. She was taking a stance that would allow her to dodge if needed, but Cel had no interest in jumping over there. Instead, he put a heartwarming smile on his face and seemed to relax a bit. Chi held her position, not about to fall for a sneak attack.
Instead, Cel just began to talk to her a little bit. In a weird way, from Chi’s perspective at least. He wasn’t trash talking her, or chatting as he might in between rounds. No, he was applauding her. He told her how amazed he was with her swimming, how fascinated he was with her recent feint attack, and how he would have to work so hard to have any chance of beating her. It was a surreal experience for Chi, who was expecting to be avoiding a tackle right now, not taking praise. When Cel, finished, he continued to hold the friendly smile on his face, leaving Chi flabbergasted.
The grin held as Cel threw up a transparent shield in front of him, only visible to Chi through the way it shimmered and slightly distorted his features and the cereal bit he was standing on. Chi, still not really sure what was happening, had had eyes for the talon hidden behind Cel’s ear. Seeing the shield though, she altered her strategy. She pretended, though some of it was sincere, that she was a lot more thrown off my Cel’s flattery than was truly the case. Instead of moving in for an attack, she merely stood still on her cereal, a look of pondering upon her. Cel took this as a sign of his empty plaudits succeeding, and he brought down his shield, hoping to squeeze in another attack while Chi floundered around hopelessly. As it turned out, he was the fool in that situation. As soon as Chi saw the shield melt away, she bounded off of her oat bit, skipping on a red balloon marshmallow, and ended up right beside Cel in a matter of seconds. The poor Nidoran was incredibly shocked, and he didn’t feel any better when Chi delivered a swift punch across his face. She tried to reach for the Razor Claw, but he kept it safe behind his giant ear, pressed into his scalp.
With the two balancing precariously upon a single cereal bit, Chi had to be careful not to throw herself off balance with her blows. Reaching another hand forward quickly she made Cel flinch slightly. Using the slight opening, she used the hand to grab the giant ear flap that was hiding the Razor Claw and pulled it downwards and forwards, so as to cover Cel’s face. Cel squirmed, but Chi had the strength to hold the ear down and use her other arm to swipe across Cel’s head, dislodging the Razor Claw and leaving quite a scratch. The item fell into the milk and sunk quicklyChi was smug, but only for a few seconds. What she had interpreted as a flinch had been merely a readying position. Before she could retract her hand from Cel’s ear, the Nidoran reared up and latched on with his teeth. He wrenched it to the side to throw her off balance, released her, then furiously walloped Chi with his real claws. The Sneasel let out an
oof! as she was thrown off of the oat bit and back into the milk, where she resurfaced to see Cel breathing hard, another smile on his face. This one was not genial; this one was malicious.

Arena Notes:
-Some venom is floating in the milk away from the battlers
Ref Notes:
-The problem with Surf was the idea of using it to land on a piece of cereal. I could see a water-type pulling it off, but not a Sneasel
-Flatter is so weird. Luckily, Chi passed both confusion rolls
-Feint was a critical hit
-Knock Off would’ve been strong enough to throw Cel off of his oat bit if Chi hadn’t had to hold on to him
-Counter was definitely strong enough
-Aletheia commands next
