2 vs 2 doubles Maxim and danmantincan at the Evil Circus

[Steampowered]

I'll issue my own challenge

2v2 Doubles
1 Day DQ/ 2 Days for Ref
2 Recoveries/5 Chills
Challenger chooses the arena
No evolved mons at all (i.e. Gastly is allowed, but not Haunter or Gengar)

I'll accept Maxim.

Switch = N/A
Items = No
Abilities = One

EDIT: Arena:

Evil Circus: Field Type: Neutral; Complexity: Intense; Format: All

It seemed like a great idea at the time, to go to the circus to have a good old friendly brawl. But then that damn evil Puppet Master came and ruined all the fun. Drat... but the fight must go on! At the end of each round, the Puppet Master will cast a tricky effect, directly attack both pokemon, or summon a wild pokemon to attack and harass the competitors. He cannot be attack directly, but the Puppet Master's attacks can be defended against.

Summary: A traveling circus with an evil Puppet in the background, who will active one of the following effects at the end of each round: Use Wonder Room, use Trick Room, use Magic Room, use a ThunderBolt on all pokemon, use an Ice Beam on all Pokemon, use a Flamethrower on all pokemon, summon a wild Drifblimb to attack, summon a wild Houndoom to attack, or summon a Mr. Mime to attack. Each effect has the same chance of happening (1/9). The puppet master cannot be attacked.

Kimli

Munchlax [Kimli] (M)
Nature: Quiet (Adds One (1) Rank to Special Attack; Divides Base Speed by 1.15 and gives a flat 10 point decrease in evasion, effectively adding 10 accuracy (e.g. 85 becomes 95) on an opponent’s attacks.

Type:
Normal: Normal STAB; adapt comfortably to any surrounding after 3 actions. Able to use Outrage without losing focus.

Abilities:
Pickup: 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.
Thick Fat: This Pokemon has a great deal of extra fat or muscle that increases its resistance to extreme heat or extreme cold, reducing the type effectiveness of Fire and Ice-typed attacks to the next level of resistance (2x weak becomes neutral, neutral becomes resistance, etc.)
Gluttony (DW): This Pokemon devours healing and stat increasing berries at 50% health (flat) instead of 25% health (flat).

Download: (Innate) At the beginning of the match, the Pokemon analyzes the opponent and downloads data that lets it deal more damage. This Pokemon receives a one (1) stage increase on the offense that strikes an opponent’s weaker defense stat. (e.g. does more damage with special attacks when facing Aggron, which has higher defense, and attack when facing Hypno, which has higher special defense. For ties, Special Attack is raised.) This boost is maintained at the end of each round.

Types: Ground/Psychic
Ground: Ground STAB; Immune to all electrical attacks, can Dig through almost any substance, Evasive Digging reduced from 3 per action Energy Cost to 2 per action, superior senses in darkened cave surroundings.
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 attacks regardless of weight difference. Psychic-type attacks are not godlike and cannot be used as a catchall for Disabling, Binding, and redirecting opposing attacks.

Ability:
Levitate: (Trait) This Pokemon naturally floats above the earth when released or easily takes flight, evading Ground moves like Bulldoze, Dig, Earthquake, and Magnitude. Other Ground moves can still hit. Levitate Pokemon will retain the Levitate trait when they use Skill Swap on an enemy, and will steal the opponent's ability (the user can specify if they want a foe or ally to gain Levitate from a Skill Swap.) If a Pokemon with Levitate uses Role Play, they will copy the opponent's abilities and retain Levitate.

Moody (DW): (Innate) This Pokemon's traits are always fluctuating from one strength to another. At the end of each round, one of the Pokemon's stats (Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, Speed, Accuracy, Evasion) will be boosted by two (2) stages and another will be reduced by one (1) stage.

Obviously, since this is a doubles, I send out both Matrix and Kimli :P

Oh, Kimli's ability will be Thick Fat
Matrix's ability will be Download (though I'm not sure how that works in doubles)

 

[danmantincan]

Ok, come one out, Danved and Shinon!

Shinon, start off with a Water Spout to deal some damage to both of them. Then blast Munchlax with a Scald and finish by showing your Hustle with a Waterfall on Munchlax.
Water Spout~Scald (M)~(Hustle) Waterfall (M)

Danved, start by creating a Sandstorm. Then use Mud-Slap on Munchlax and finish by using Psychic to throw one of the crates at Munchlax.
Sandstorm~Mud-Slap (M)~Psychic (Throw Crate at M)

Hmm,

Kimli: Thunderbolt (Remoraid)~Ice Beam (Baltoy)~Thunderbolt (Remoraid)

Matrix: Agility~Tri Attack (Remoraid)~Tri Attack (Baltoy)

Maxim has said he will be leaving until Wednesday. Since this battle is still in its first round, I've decided to end it now with no rewards given to anyone.
