Battle Hall Challenge - Mowtom

Mowtom · Aug 19, 2014

"I just realized. Kent doesn't actually know Aerial Ace. Am I disqualified?"

Maxim · Aug 19, 2014

*Sips cup full of hot chocolate* "Ah this is the life, getting counters whether I win or lose."

"Uh, sir. Our Records don't show that Karrablast knowing Aerial Ace. At all."

*Spit take* "WHAT?! Then how did it just use it?!"

"I don't know! I just work here. Perhaps he just learned it from seeing the Purrloin use it."

"Hmm, that doesn't usually fly in the competitive ASB League...Hmm. I'll handle this."

A few minutes later, Maxim meets with Mowtom.

"Okay, so you say your Karrablast didn't know Aerial Ace when he came in here. Well...I did screw up in not checking whether you had that move, so here's what I'll do. We'll continue the challenge like nothing happened provided you use some of the Counters gotten here to purchase Aerial Ace officially. With that in mind, let's continue shall we?" :)

"Oh, and please, don't use Aerial Ace again during this challenge."

Mowtom · Aug 19, 2014

"That sounds agreeable. I don't actually know Hall rewards, but I'm sure that it's over 2 MC."

"I've been using a move I don't know?!?!?!?!"

"Good: that second sub says exactly 10 HP, so it probably won't activate. Bad: I forgot that Bug is neutral on Bug."

The Wanderer · Sep 27, 2014

First, a little bit of retconning - it turns out there was a bit of a goof in the last round's calculations. I've redone the relevant crunch here:

Action 1
-Damage of Struggle Bug: 5 + 3 + 1.5 - 3 = 6.5 damage
-Karrablast's protect EN cost: 7 + (6.5 / 2.5) = 9.6 EN

Action 2
-Damage of Bug Bite: 6 + 3 + 3 - 3 = 9 damage, broke substitute

Action 3
Crunch is unaffected.

New Final Numbers
-Karrablast: -2 (1.6) HP, -25 (24.6) EN
-Kricketot: old numbers unaffected
