Okay, this is how it's gonna go down. If the coin falls on Heads, Maxim sends out first! If Tails, Comp sends out first!
Flipping the coin...
Oh, son of a...! Okay, screw it, I'm flipping the table!
Same deal, if it falls right side up, Maxim sends out first!
(Result: 1/2 - Heads)
Alright, this is how it's gonna go down: Maxim sends his Pokémon out first, then Complications sends out his Pokémon and orders, then Maxim orders and I ref! (hopefully)
