I hope you are ok with me using Ninjask. Other than being my favorite arena, Unown Soup is useful for providing type coverage, so hopefully it's not too big of a deal.

Ninjask

If you are opposed to it, I will change my mon.

How this is going to work

Eternal sends out Chimecho and attaches an item
Comp sends out Ninja and attaches item and orders
Eternal counters
I ref

Eternal Drifter · Jan 20th, 2013, 3:03:37 PM

Hope the Chimecho sent out with Pure Incense attached. (Pure Incense increases Chimecho's Special Attack and Special Defense ranks by 1 each, and increases resistance to status.)

Complications · Jan 20th, 2013, 3:27:10 PM

Smashing. I feared that this may happen. Nonetheless, while Hope may have the statistical advantage, we have the type advantage, so let's see if we can press it, and take this Rare Candy to make it a bit easier!
X-Scissor-U-Turn-X-Scissor
If Chimecho uses a damaging Rock type move, use Protect, but not consecutively.
If Chimecho uses a paralysis-inducing status move, use Substitute (15) on that action.

Coincidentally both of our Pokemon have 23 moves.

Eternal Drifter · Jan 20th, 2013, 4:20:09 PM

Toxic would go too slowly, with U-Turn, and the Substitute up means that trying to paraylze you would not go well. The best bet? Offence, and hope for a burn.

Hope:
Action 1: Unown B (Blue Flare)
Action 2: Recover
Action 3: Shock Wave

Each of Ninjask's attacks should have 1 extra BAP due to the effect of Rare Candy.

Additionally, you forgot Speed Boost.

A little better than expected. Let's see how this goes...

Hope:
Action 1: Unown F (Fusion Flare)
Action 2: Recover
Action 3: Shock Wave
IF Protective/Evasive move issued successfully, Chill and push actions back.
IF Ninjask uses an Evasive Damaging move, AND Hope has not used an Unown yet this round, use Unown P (Pursuit) that action.

U-Turn-X-Scissor-Unown R Roost
If Hope tries to use a recovery move, use Unown T Taunt on that action and push back.
If Hope uses a damaging Rock type move, use Protect on that action, but not consecutively.

You forgot to factor in Burn and the Rare Candy BAP boost, but it doesn't matter as it still KO's. GG Eternal Drifter, and thanks for reffing Someoneelse!
