"Our first opponent stands in your way, but I know we'll put in our best to win this point towards being crowned The Grand Tournament champion! Ginseng, you've had some great training to prepare recently, start us off and show us what you've learned!"

Zapdos puts up a subsitute with just enough health to take one Knock Off from Muk-A without breaking. This allows it to unleash its combo, allowing Zapdos to both pivot and paralyze Muk-A, crippling it for the next matchup. This is not without consequence however, as Zapdos is already down half of its energy. To end the round, the two Pokémon exchange strong hits, with Muk-A managing to sneak in a critical hit. P2X7 currently holds the HP lead, but only slightly. Let's see what Gemini Taurus can do with a new matchup. Should be a joy to watch.

Kecleon is quick to burrow under the ground, so Muk takes the opportunity to set up a substitute of its own. The sub soaks the damage from Dig and allows Muk to not be flinched by the follow-up Fake Out. With a chance to act, Muk lowers Kecleon's speed to gain the edge over future evasive maneuvers. This edge is quickly capitalized on, as Muk uses its combo counter to both trap Kecleon and remove its item.

P2X7 orders first,
Gemini Taurus orders second.
 
P2X7 in Substitute's description, Life Orb have recoil damage if it's hitting a Substitute. The same thing happened last round, Muk didn't take Life Orb recoil when hitting Zapdos's sub.
 
Whoops; I guess I've never really paid close attention to that description.


"Hmm...change of plans."

Bite - Crunch - Bite
IF Kecleon uses a Recovery Move, AND you move before it based on Speed order, use Taunt that action instead and push back. Only play this substitution once.
IF Kecleon uses a Damaging Priority Move in a combination, use Protect that action instead and push back.

Status: Knocked Out

On its last stand, Muk goes for Bite. Not only was the impact enough for Kecleon's body to seize up, Muk's toxins seeped into Kecleon, poisoning it. Kecleon wasn't the only one unable to move though, as Muk finally succumbed to its paralysis for an action. Kecleon takes the chance to nab Muk's item before striking it with an unnecessary crit to take it down, securing the first KO of the match.

P2X7 replaces Muk-A,
Gemini Taurus orders first,
P2X7 orders second.

Status: No Combo, Pivoting, Disabled (Volt Switch, 6a)

This round features two Pokémon fresh off of the bench. Caribolt comes in to replace the fallen Muk, and GT responds by switching to Gengar. Holding its ground, Caribolt takes a hefty hit to its health, but cripples the Mega Gengar and can pivot to a more comfortable matchup. With this round, GT's full hand has been revealed, and each of his Pokémon has taken some meaningful damage. P2X7 still has one more mon to reveal, but is down one team member. This one has been super close over four rounds.

P2X7 replaces Caribolt and orders first,
Gemini Taurus orders second.
 
My apologies.


"This will be tricky."


Smokomodo @ Absorb Bulb

Sand Tomb - Bone Rush - Bullet Punch
IF Gengar is set to use Pain Split, use Protect that action instead and push back. Do not play this substitution consecutively.
[Check at the start of the action] IF Gengar is set to use Counter, use Earth Power the first instance, Mud Shot the second, and Bone Rush the third, pushing back each instance.
IF you have Sleep Counters when you would act, use Sleep Talk (Earthquake/High Horsepower/Bone Rush/Bulldoze) that action instead.
