[epicdrill]

Let's start with Kitsunoh @ Weakness Policy

 

[nightblitz42]

"This crew isn't as impressive as the one I'm used to leading, but it will suffice."
"Hey, where do you get off acting like the boss of us? Clearly, I'm the one in charge here!"
"Nobody cares who's in charge! Quit squabbling and get a move on!"

Sending in Tomohawk with Focus Sash.
Taunt > Stealth Rock > Whirlwind
IF Tomohawk flinches THEN push back orders.
IF under P/E when Tomohawk would use Taunt THEN begin string: Stealth Rock > Taunt > Whirlwind.
IF Taunt in Combination THEN Protect, pushing back.

epicdrill up

 

[epicdrill]

So, this is a legal combo, and I know it's been ruled previously that Roar bypasses Protect, so

Taunt+Roar, cooldown, Thunder Punch
[CASOA] If the ref rules that Taunt+Roar will not bypass Protect, then use Taunt+Confide A1.

Look, I don't think you can talk about 'underhanded tactics' and then rain down every status on the opponent in good faith. What makes it worse is the Choice Band. It's like bringing an assault rifle to a barbecue and only using its cannon to stir the charcoal.
Well, now that nightblitz is ordering first, let's see what's in store for us!

epicdrill's stroke of bad luck continues, as Cobalion steadily inflicts massive damage to the Dragonite and showcases how to use a Choice Band. Dragonite's own attacks are pretty meaty as well, and Cobalion would have been finished this round if not for a lucky full paralysis in a round otherwise full of high rolls.
That poison damage is ticking up fast, too...​

Man, between the evil squid and the evil fox, it's hard to find someone to root for here. At least Cobalion has flair.
Now, Kitsunoh may have gained the upper hand this round with some clever dodging, but it has expended a fair share of EN doing so. The threat of ENKO looms with first order, unless epicdrill gives up the WP boosts and decides to switch?​

Malamar gets to show off its cool signature move by weakening Kitsunoh as much as its Weakness Policy empowered it! It's looking bleak for epicdrill, who's now slower, has low EN, a permanent damage malus, and cannot switch.
But then again, Kitsunoh got a Taunt in, so who's the real winner here?​

"Do realize how pitiful you look right now? I'm going to finish you slowly, just so I can savor this moment longer!"
"Sure, totally. Is that your excuse for managing only 18 damage a hit?"
"S-Shut up! I could do more damage if I wanted to, I swear!"

IF Metal Burst AND Malamar is to move first based on speed order THEN Tackle, pushing back.
