mewtwo15026 vs Rising_Dusk in a cardboard box --- Referee Ritter::R_D Victorious

2v2 Doubles
DQ: 3 days (4 for refs)
Pokemon in battle must be able to evolve but unevolved. No Pokemon may evolve at any time.

Arena: Cardboard Cell

An overturned cardboard box. The box covers an area of 15ft by 20ft, with the ceiling 10 feet off the ground. Bright light streams through the handles of the box and through a 1-square-foot hole in the ceiling. The floor is dirt, diggable up to 10 feet, and any attack at all may be used.

The walls cannot be destroyed or damaged. The ceiling can be, but a giant screen door is lying on top of the box; removing the ceiling would only allow weather to pass through.

Pichu Gesundheit (F)
Nature: Naughty (Attack up by *, Sp. Def. down by *.)

Pichu is destined to lead Team VioletEye alongside Mewtwo. She'll be able to quell any argument, soothe any ill tempers, and work out any obstacle to a mission, no matter what the pressure.

She just doesn't know it yet.

Pichu is cute and silly, just like any baby Pokemon. She can touch the hearts of even the angriest Pokemon and often exploits this ability to get what she wants. Battles are her favorite pastime, and she uses her wiles to manipulate her opponents there, too. A little more oomph would be appreciated, though...

Type: Electric
Electric: Electric STAB; 50% reduction in paralysis chance from other electrical attacks, perfect accuracy and 30% chance of Protect breaking Thunder during Rain.

Lightningrod (DW): (Innate) These Pokemon naturally attract electricity to themselves and away from partners in double battles.

Ralts Gordon (M)
Nature: Adamant (Attack up by *, Sp. Atk. down by *.)

Gordon is a rather quiet boy. He doesn't say much, but when he does speak, he always says the right thing. Guess that's the upside of being an empath. Conversely, the fact that he picks up so much malice from the air around him must burn him on the inside. Maybe that's why he's quiet. Maybe it's because he's not looking forward to evolution; after all, guys NEVER look good in short skirts.

He's not saying, though...

Psychic STAB;
less susceptible to blinding
more susceptible to sound-based assaults as far as locking on with Psychic attacks
can lift and throw opponents with Psychic attacks regardless of weight difference

• Encored attacks do not cost extra energy / STAB support moves cost 1 less energy
  
  (Source) You currently have Sneasel's energy as having been accosted 100-(10+10+4+10+8)=58, which is incorrect in two ways. Taunt, as a Dark-type move, costs Sneasel 9 energy, and Encore removes the "repeated energy cost charge". So it should be: 100-(9+9+9)=73. Big difference.
  
  You also messed up the other energy costs:
  Sneasel: 100-(9+9+9)=73
  Riolu: 100-(6+6+4+6+8)=70
  Ralts: 100-(3+2+3)=92
  Pichu: 100-(10+6+7)=77
• Priority attacks cannot be used to dodge/reduce damage and deal damage at the same time
  
  A priority move like Shadow Sneak can be used to dodge an attack, but if used as such, cannot also deal damage during the same action. You currently have Ralts using Shadow Sneak to dodge Crunch and then cut the second Crunch's damage in half, which is incorrect. If Shadow Sneak is used to deal damage, then Ralts must take the full hit of Crunch each time. Since he issued first Shadow Sneak as "maneuver to dodge", it should dodge and do no damage, but the second Shadow Sneak is listed as normal, and thus should do damage and prevent none.

"A male Ralts? You are going to be SUCH a transvestite when you evolve!" Sneasel starts off this match viciously with some nasty Taunts about Gordon's choice of clothing.

By this logic, shouldn't Knot have worked? I dunno. Also, although the transvestite comments are OK, Ritter definitely needs to stop being mean to my Pokemon.

Damn. And I was hoping Ralts could at least score a KO on SOMETHING. This match WAS a little one-sided: two status fighters, one of which a Psychic-type, against a Sneasel with Taunt. At the start, though, it looked like it could have gone either way; I guess I should congratulate RD on the "comeback". :)
