Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Candelia's Mimikyu was like, playing it super safe against TMan87's poor, roughed-up Mudkip. I mean, Mimikyu used Protect and then Thunder Wave, but why not just finish Mudkip off? Anyway, Mudkip tried its best, but the poison got to it. Now TMan87 needs a new Pokémon, and Candelia's Mimikyu is still going strong. I guess it worked out in the end, huh?
:mimikyu:"Hey, my trainer was an idiot and forgot that mudkip was literally roadkill. She's goofy like that."
Thunder Wave -> Shadow Claw -> Psychic
If Croagunk uses Poison Jab, Protect that step.
If Croagunk uses Protect, then use Double Team. if candy makes a mistake, shove her in a toaster
"If we had to shove everyone who made mistakes in a toaster, no one would play this game. That said, remember that moves have intrinsic restrictions to them!"
Here's a little lesson for you: you can't use Protect consecutively! It's like, not allowed or something. So, trainers usually tag their substitutions that use Protect with [Non-Consecutive] to make sure they don't accidentally use Protect too often.
Candelia replaces Mimikyu (automatic, no post required). TMan87 orders first, Candelia orders second.
