Project Unluckiest Player of the Month (Cycle 26, see Post #535)

Ok so i have had a number of games where it's just a billion misses or something, but this game is special where every single unfortunate thing actually matters massively i go from having multiple sweeps to getting crit or flinched multiple times throughout after pulling correct reads and playing it safe almost sweeping off my lead mon to somehow lose it. still don't know how this happened

T7: Shadow Ball crit
T14: Effect Spore sleep proc
T17: quite possibly the stupidest turn of the match, Ice Punch froze Kingdra, who thawed out due to Lum Berry and was immediately poisoned by Muk's Poison Touch
T21: Ice Punch crit
T23: Ice Punch freeze
T24 & 25: Zekrom failed to thaw, got KOed by Muk, Palossand came in and was immediately frozen by Ice Punch too. So that's 3 Ice Punch freezes in the span of 8 turns.

This match has everything you can wish for and a clear protagonist: Muk! The purple poisonous blob puts up a performance for the ages thanks to its masterful use of Ice Punch, with a clutch critical hit in between. We recommend you watch turn 17 for a very rare case of double status being inflicted on the same turn and to the same pokemon!
Outside of Muk, the rest of the match doesn't let us down either because a game-changing critical hit and and the good old Effect Spore activation contribute to strengthen the case of this Gen 7 match as the winning replay of the month.

Cycle #26 can now start and will finish on November 30th!

My random team in gen 4 with a gigachad of a Kecleon fights and stalls its way through 7 full paras, with the enemy only receiving only 2 paras in a 44 turn slogfest that I end with having been lucky(unlucky for him) enough to get not one but TWO explosion mons deleting his Final 2 mons a Salamence and Vaporeon

T18: both players full para
T20: both players full para
T21: my linoone is full para and recieves a crit(not that it mattered) from thunderbolt
T27: kecleon full para
T35: kecleon full para
T36: kecleon full para
T39: kecleon full para
T43: explosion one shots vaporeon
T44: torkoal with white smoke ignores salamence's intimidate and one shots it with explosion

This replay is not a matter of me being unlucky or lucky due to how the game played out, but I believe this is UPOW Worthy solely because of how much I suffered playing through this. The luck lies not in the fact that he got para'd 2000 damn times, but rather that I'm fighting a stall Trick Room regenerator team with no hazard removal or a poison type. I may have won the battle, but I lost doing so.
