Canis Majoris orders​

 

[Canis Majoris]

Welcome to ASB! I'm sure you'll enjoy this experience here. If you have any questions, ask me! I'll try to answer them as well as possible!
For now, let's start this slowly.
Sending out Rufflet @ Exp. Share (Toggle Sheer Force ON)

 

[Valzy]

Sending out Gastly@Nothing
Will-O-Wisp~Sludge Bomb~Thunderbolt

If opponent uses a protective move A1, push actions back but keep A3

If opponent uses Tailwind then replace action set with Thunderbolt~Will-O-Wisp~Thunderbolt

 

[Canis Majoris]

Just as I expected.
A couple of things:
You can't switch normally in ASB. You have to use a switching move (U-Turn, Volt Switch) which will only switch out the mon at the end of the round or iniciate a Switch Phase (which only the people ordering first may do. You can't iniciate a switch phase twice in a row, but you can read the handbook for all the details.
You have two substitutions. You can make the most of them (IF opponent uses X THEN Y that action and push back is the most standard substitution you can find).
That said, I'll let you reorder to work on these things, if you'd like.

Thanks :) I've reordered

 

[Canis Majoris]

Ooh. Now, the first thing I'll truly teach you in ASB...
Is that subs can and often are abused. Get out of there, Rufflet!

Tailwind > Protect > U-Turn

 

[Mulan15262]

Note that a pokemon may not be ordered to do nothing. If Canis Majoris had used Protect a1, your Gastly would have used struggle. Since a pokemon may not be ordered to do nothing, it is typical to have your pokemon use a set-up move (Swords Dance, Calm Mind, etc.) when a foe uses a protective or evasive (abbreviated p/e) move.

Also note that protective moves only include Protect and Detect, so if Rufflet had known and used Agility(evasive) or Teleport(evasive), the sub would not activate. Due to this, it is common practice to sub for p/e moves, even if you think the opponent's pokemon does not know any evasive moves.

Ah, thanks for noticing, as I haven't. That Gastly is going to be a real issue...
For now, let's spice things up.
Sending out Darumaka @ Lucky Egg!
(Toggle Hustle ON) Fire Punch > Fire Fang > Fire Punch
IF Fire Punch is Disabled when you would use it THEN Flame Charge that action
IF you hit yourself in confusion THEN push back actions

I've never used a combination before, so hopefully this works...

[Valzy]

I'm going to initiate a switch phase by benching Gastly and making Dratini my active Pokemon .

 

[Canis Majoris]

I'd switch, but that would mean ordering first. Go ahead and order, then!

 

[Valzy]

Surf>Dragon Pulse>Surf

If opponent uses rage, change A3 to Haze

 

[Canis Majoris]

Oh, this is going to suck.
But it's going to be worth it. Hopefully.
U-Turn > Rage > Focus Punch
IF U-Turn misses THEN push back actions
