Leader Engineer Pikachu reveals his third team member for this match, Kailu the Toxicroak, who is adorned with an Expert Belt. Son of Shadoo responds by bringing back out Hijinks, who still beats that Bright Powder.
Leading a strong attack, Kailu shakes Hijinks with an Earthquake. In response, Hijinks leads by emitting a chain of pink hearts from it's antlers, twisting around Kailu and making the frog Attracted to Hijinks.
: 100/93 ~ Tailwind (3a) ; Attract (2a)
: 66/77
Kailu, now completely in love with Hijinks, can't bear to attack and is Immobilised by love, whilst Hijinks shocks the toad with a Thunder, paralysing it!.
Hijinks now faster, tries for a Me First generating another Earthquake, this time not against her, whilst Kailu discovers that Paralysis is painful and cannot move! It seems as if Lady Fortuna is against Engineer Pikachu, but writing out the leader at this stage would be a foolish choice!

Oh wow, I was stupid last night, I thought my Me First didn't work. Herpaderp! Good thing I didn't order then. Right, what horrible things can you do to me... And vice-versa. Hmm... Amélie, the time has come for you to enter the stage, in this, our final battle! Stand with me my trusted starting Pokémon! Show him our Sheer Force, and wear your Expert Belt with pride.
I do apologise for the hax, but it's a part of the game after all. Fortunately there should be a bit less this round. Activate Sheer Force!

Hmm. Should've made a paralysis sub there, just in case. Oh well, doesn't matter anyway. Engineer, I think it's fair to say we're entering our endgame soon enough. So, I'm going to take the opportunity to thank you for a genuinely thrilling last match.
Begone, puny frog!
(Sheer Force still on)
Earth Power >>> Flamethrower >>> Earth Power
If Toxicroak uses Double Team, use Earthquake and push actions down.
More uncreative Flavour due to my hate of this format, gogogogogo!

1 HP and 1 EN, but you've still got some life in you for later should our plans fail. Shokoli, let's go!
Shokoli: Earthquake - Earthquake - Earthquake
IF (Endure is used) THEN (Gastro Acid instead, but only once)
IF (Hijinks is in the stage of a Damaging Evasive Action when you act) THEN (Instead use Tailwind, Wish, and chill the first, second, and third times)
... This sentence alone makes you the most overprepared player I've ever seen. What the hell could I possibly pull here bar a ridiculous streak of Confuse Ray/Attract bullshit? And frankly, I don't have it in me to do that. No point dragging out the inevitable.
