Wurmple (Beauty) Female
Nature: Quiet (+1 SpA, -1 Spe, -10% evasion)
Type: Bug
Bug STAB; more mobility in dense brush or forest conditions. Gains an extra guaranteed attack on multi-hit moves.

Abilities:
Shield Dust: (Innate) This Pokemon has dust covering the outside of its body that prevents opponents secondary effects from taking place (eg burn from Flamethrower). It does not block direct status moves (such as Thunder Wave.)
Run Away (DW ability- LOCKED): (Innate) This Pokemon is quick on its feet and will evade any field traps and hazards that would harm it (Spikes, Stealth Rock, Toxic Spikes) in an arena. A Pokemon can still absorb Toxic Spikes if it has Run Away and is Poison-typed. Run Away does not allow the Pokemon to switch out of trapping moves or abilities, however it can escape other situational trapping strategies in battle.

Type
Psychic : 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 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
Abilities
Shadow Tag: [Type: Innate] Upon entry into battle, this Pokemon’s Shadow expands across the arena and dissipates, forcing opposing Pokemon to stay within 10 meters of this Pokemon. The Shadow entirely negates the ability to switch for every Pokemon except those who also have Shadow Tag.
Telepathy:[Type: Innate][DW]This Pokemon has a mental link with its allies in multiple allies, allowing it to avoid taking damage from attacks that affect the whole field like Earthquakeand Surf.

Abilities
Run Away: [Type: Innate] This Pokemon is quick on its feet and will evade any field traps and hazards that would harm it (Spikes, Stealth Rock, Toxic Spikes) in an arena.

Run Away does not allow the Pokemon to switch out of trapping moves or abilities, however it can escape other situational trapping strategies in battle.
Pick Up:[Type: Innate]This Pokemon has a natural habit of collecting items. Whenever a hold item (its own or an opponents) is used or knocked onto the ground with a move like Knock Off, this Pokemon will immediately pick up that item without using an action. It can also grab dropped or naturally occuring hold items in arenas.
Skill Link: [Type: Innate] [DW] This Pokemon’s skillfull aim makes its multi-hit moves always hit 5 times. The Energy Cost of multi-hit attacks is increased by three (3).

Here are the rules.
Wobbonaut orders first.

[Wobbanaut]

Eeeeek 2 bugs get them

Handy Bounce - Double Team(4 clones) - Bounce all on Beast
Choice Counter - Counter - Counter all on Beauty
If String shot encore and just Cooldown

Why do you have 2 Wurmple why I say

[waterwarrior]

Why do I have two Wurmple? WHY DO I HAVE TWO WURMPLE!? Pathetic mortal, do you not know the power of the almighty Dustox? Must I inform you of the history of this godly, omnipotent creature?! Even a fool like yourself knows of Sootopolis City, correct? The small, near-deserted city in Hoenn, surrounded by a giant wall of rock and only accessible through using Dive? The city used to be the largest city in the world, even larger than Castelia City, until one little fool decided to write a book about all the raids and cities destroyed, made into ruins, by the Dustox horde. Then... the horde attacked Sootopolis. First, they came for the manuscript and the author. There was absolutely nothing left. No bones, no skin. Only blood remained. They then moved on to the entire city, devouring everything in sight. All plant life, all homes, all stores, and even the Pokemon Center was eaten. Even after reducing the city to rubble, their hunger was insatiable. No one was spared. Every man, woman, and child unable to escape into the water or fly away fast enough was eaten alive.

And Beautifly is pretty cool too.

Beauty: Poison Sting Choice -> Bug Bite Handy -> Poison Sting Choice
Beast: Dodge -> Poison Sting Handy -> Dodge

GOGOGO ENERGY EXHAUSTION!

Why did you have to make me learn the rules for dodge?

Fast not-quite-flavor:

Handy bounces, but Beast knows where he is and dodges out of the way.
Beauty tries to poison Choice, but Choice counterattacks.
Handy makes 4 clones, but beast disposes of all of them, poisoning Handy.
Beauty Bites Handy, and Choice Counters in vain.
Repeat first action.

Bump for WW

[waterwarrior]

In my defense, Yarnus finished the reffing 9 hours ago, so I'm not over DQ at all.

Anyways, WHY IN GOD'S NAME DID I CHOOSE ONLY 1 SUB?!

Beauty: Bug Bite -> Poison Sting -> Bug Bite (all Handy)
If Handy uses Bounce on Beauty, dodge.
Beast: Bug Bite -> Poison Sting -> Bug Bite (all Handy)

[Wobbanaut]

I'm not calling DQ but I wasn't going to be available for 14 hours so I didn't want to go over DQ and I'm a huge derp too so...

Handy Counter(Beauty) - Bounce(Beast) - Counter(Beauty)
Choice Tickle(Beast) - Chill - Tickle(Beast)

Yes I'm getting beaten by Wurmple I'm such a pathetic joke

Choice Tickle(Beauty) - Charm(Beast) - Tickle(Beaty)

And you didn't include star drops in calculations
And dodge can't save you it only has 51% chance of working

[waterwarrior]

I'll admit, the threat to not rely on Dodge made me laugh.

Beauty: Bug Bite Choice -> Poison Sting Handy -> Dodge
Beast: Dodge -> Poison Sting Handy -> Bug Bite Choice

SQUIRM ON TO VICTORY MY MINIONS!

Edit: You have not hit me with 3 out of 3 Bounces. Its working pretty well actually.

[Wobbanaut]

You really are the derpiest man on smogon

Wobbanaut is up next; it seems this battle is about even now.

Edit: fixed

[Seven Deadly Sins]

Hey Wobbanaut, chill the fuck out. It'll get reffed when it gets reffed. Stop doubleposting with bumps.

[Wobbanaut]

Encore( Beast) - Counter( Beast ) - Counter ( Beast )

If a mon uses a combo on you Evasive Splash then Encore that poke the next turn

[waterwarrior]

Edit: Hate to break this to you buut.. not only would that combo have EN KO'd Handy without the Counter, WITH the Counter... He could not have possibly used it. In order to use a combo, you need to have enough EN to use both moves seperately, which, in this case, is 20 EN. Counter should have cost 6+(16/2) = 14 EN, leaving him with only 15 EN left. I'm not sure what should happen, and I can't hop on irc due to me being on an IPhone, but don't be surprised if that entire round needs to be re-reffed.

Moral of the story? Both of you need to pay a LOT more attention to EN. (Wobbanaut is excusable due to this being his 2nd/3rd battle, but really Yarnus?)

[Yarnus of Bethany]

Sorry, ww. Energy is definitely my short suit. The majority of my lost battles are from energy loss.
It will be fixed shortly.

In fact, it is fixed right now.

[waterwarrior]

Assuming that is, in fact, what is supposed to happen...

Beast: Bug Bite x2 (Encore) -> String Shot
Beauty: Bug Bite -> Poison Sting -> String Shot

Isnt it great how Encore only lasts 2 actions? Enjoy spending a shit-ton of extra EN!
