Why am I here?
Battle Rules
3v3 Singles
ASB Arena
Strict 72h Disqualification. One warning per player. After the warning is used (any tag after DQ interval is passed will be counted as warning), the Player has one hour to post (with full orders/pokemon, just saying "orders coming watch this space" doesn't suffice) after DQ is called to rescind it. If one hour passes, the player is DQ'd regardless of the ref posting or not. User calling DQ must tag DQ'd player. Referees please tag the combatants when you have finished your reffing. Players, if you know you're going to be away you better post a Leave of Absence BEFORE you leave, or give a very good reason in case of an emergency.
Infinite Recoveries/Chills per Pokémon.
Three Substitutions per player excluding KO Substitutions.
Switch = OK
Abilities = ALL
Items = ON
Sendout = coinflip


Rock Gym Leader and traditionally a user of relatively unorthodox Pokemon, it's ZhengTann!
ZhengTann:
Alolan Master Race (Alolan-Muk) (M)

lore if claimed after tournament

Nature: Quiet (+1 SpAtk, -15% Speed, -10% Accuracy)

Type:
Poison type: Poison STAB; immunity to Poison/Toxic status. Absorb Toxic Spikes on switch-in unless Flying-typed or using the ability Levitate. -- Accuracy when using Toxic, Poison Gas, or Poison Powder, hitting even during Dig, Fly, etc. Ignore Fog's accuracy reduction. Store Command.

Dark type: Dark STAB; ignores Attract and Confusion status entirely when using Dark-type damaging and non-damaging attacks. Immune to all status moves used by a Pokemon with the Prankster ability (as well as all moves summoned by a Prankster-boosted non-damaging move).

Abilities:
Ability 1: Poison Touch
Type: Toggle
By default, this Pokemon's body is covered with a film of poison. Whenever it hits an opponent with a contact attack, that opponent has a 30% chance of being Poisoned. When toggled, this Pokemon's natural toxins are more potent. As a result, all of this Pokemon's attacks that inflict regular poison will inflict Toxic poison instead (with the same chance of effect).

Ability 2: Gluttony
Type: Passive
This Pokemon devours healing and stat increasing berries at 50% health (flat) instead of 25% health (flat). It also regains three (3) HP per action when holding Leftovers.

Ability 3: Power of Alchemy
Type: Trigger
When this Pokemon is sent out, it can expend six (6) EN to use its molecular composition to absorb an ability of a fainted ally, replacing this ability with the chosen 1 for six (6) actions. If in a multiple battle an ally faints while this Pokemon is active, at the start of the next round: it can expend six (6) EN to use its molecular composition to absorb one ability of the fainted ally, replacing this ability with the chosen for 6 actions.

[IF] Sky Marshall is in the evasive stage of a D/E move when you would act, use Thunder that action instead and restart queue​

IF Medusa-Mudsdale would use a Ground-type damaging move AND Protect is NOT used last action, THEN replace that action with Protect instead, pushing remaining queue back.
This does not state a user of the move Protect, and Protect was indeed used A3 of the previous round. Hence the substitution should activate. Feel free to get a counter-ruling though.

I was summoned.

And ooh, that's a fun one. I think SomeoneElse has reffed this right, even if it's not completely intuitive.
*remembers to use this for Reffing 202s*
 
Suffice it to say, I disagree with the above ruling. I routinely (read: always) word my subs as "[IF] X is used" and, as far as I'm aware, they have never been interpreted as "IF either mon uses X move". This seems so inane to me that I didn't bother to ask for ref input because it would never have crossed my mind that the substitution could be interpreted as covering both Pokémon. That being said, I did ask for DF's discretion and it's only reasinable that I abide by it.

However, I have been playing super poorly and I had an incredibly thin margin of error as is, even if the combo hit and all. I see even less of a chance to come back now, for obvious reasons.

Therefore, saving everyone three weeks of their life and forfeiting. Toon jsyk
