_superboy_ has left the room.
Legacy Raider wins!

I don't see much in the first part of the battle. LO Skymin finishing off a slower pokemon on 1 Hlth, and the one pokemon on superboy's team that's faster than Skymin dies.

The second part is hilarious, Skymin single-handlingly beating 5 opposing pokemon. Subseed Skymin does have destructive power. Admittely though, superboy's team is Skymin weak, along with a Salamance weakness and if Milotic dies, Heatran owns.
