Welcome, one and all, to the first round of DYAE. Today we will be watching the fight between zarator and Ragnarokalex. I'm not one for opening fluff, but I'll say that zarator is the Ghost-Type gym leader we have here in capasb, and when he's not cursing challengers in his arena, he harbors a bit of a superstition against him of his own, being notorious for his track record in tournaments so far. Ragnarokalex, on the other hand, is a veteran battler who has been here for quite a while now, barring a leave or two, and is certainly capable of winning this bout.The Rules said:
That's enough of that for today, so let's get to the teams.

I'd say that one would have to be wary of Trevenant, here. The resident ent matches up quite well against (arguably) 2/3 or RAlex's team, and by no means is fairing too badly against Sylveon, either.

Abilities:
Cute Charm:
Type: Passive
This Pokemon’s natural cuteness causes Pokemon of the opposite gender to be attracted to it 30% of the time after striking with a contact move.
Pixilate:
Type: Passive
By default, this Pokemon's Normal-type moves are Fairy-type moves, and have an additional two (2) BAP boost. When toggled, this Pokemon's Normal-type attacks have their BAP increased by two (2). Only Normal-typed moves changed by Pixilate receive this boost, and not all Fairy-type moves. If a Pokemon has been skill-swapped multiple abilities that change Normal-type attacks, the attacks become dual-typed, but the BAP boosts of the abilities do not stack.

Type:
Psychic: STAB; can lift and throw opponents with Psychic regardless of Special Attack Rank. Psychic-type attacks are not godlike and cannot be used as a catchall for Disabling, Binding, and redirecting opposing attacks.
Flying: STAB: immunity to Ground attacks and the Arena Trap Ability except under the effects of Smack Down and Gravity, even for ground-based flying Pokemon. Will always hit foes with Dig (except other Flying types) and Dive. Cannot be hit by Dive unless the attacking Pokemon has a size class greater than four (4). Unaffected by Spikes or Toxic Spikes. when switching in. Able to hit Pokemon in the evasive stage of Bounce, Fly or Sky Drop with single target moves that hit Pokemon on the field regardless of position.
Abilities:
Unaware:
Type: Passive
When this Pokemon is released, a light aura enshrouds the opponent, nullifying all stat boosts or reductions other than Speed, it remains while this Pokemon is active.
Klutz:
Type: Passive
By default, the Pokemon moves in a rare style of battling that uses an unpredictable, clumsy looking manner. The accuracy of its attacks is increased by 10% (flat). While engaging in this style it cannot use a hold item, though an item is necessary to pull it off. When toggled, there is no effect.
Simple:
Type: Passive
This Pokemon innately exaggerates the effect of stat boosts and drops to the point where they have double the effectiveness and thus double the stage modifier (e.g. Swords Dance boosts Attack by four (4) stages, Bulk Up boosts Attack and Defense by two (2) stages each). Stat boosts and drops still maximize at six (6) stages.
