SPECTATOR PARTICIPATION WANTED! Engineer vs Objection

Inspired by Raticates efforts earlier, Heracross prepeares himself for any direct damage so he can hopefully Endure another round. Dusknoir, seeing his ploy plans some Sneaky tactics, and strikes from the Shadows.
Heracross then unleashes a powerful combo attack, using both hands to strike at Dusknoir with dark energy, a so-called Mega Nigth Slash. But Oogie Boogie is patient, and merely chills as he takes the blow, knowing he has plenty of time.
And so, as Heracross recovers from the effort of his attack, Dusknoir approcahes him in a leisurely manner and downs the bug once and for all with a single ghostly Will-o-Wisp.
The mob beats up the dead body; a most unusual sight.
And with that, both players with 3 Pokemon left, but it seems Engineer's are in much better condition. Can Objection turn this around?

With all of those shenanigans done, it's time to unveil the second part of my not-so-well-thought-out plan!
Yukai, go!

Aah, it turns out that I don't have that move...

BREAK THE DUSKNOIR INTO PIECES I SAY!
With Heracross' fall Engineer sends out once again Yukai the Dusclops. The young Dusclops sees the older Dusknoir partially as an inspiration, but more immediately as a weakened target.
And so he strikes! By using the Shadows he Sneaks around and attempts to Astonish his evolved form, but Oogie Boogie is decidedly unimpressed and Taunts his opponent for it. He then goes on to burn the inferior spirit with a Will-o-Wisp, then make up the difference between them with Pain Split. Dusclops then manages to get of a Night Shade, putting him ahead slightly.
And the mob has something to say about that...

Lynch Aerodactly because Oogie Boogie is awesome and only deserves to be hurt by spinning death-traps.

The bugger's Taunt got to me too.

LYNCH AERODACTYL, I SAY!
Correct, Agility does not avoid perfect accuracy attacks such as Aerial Ace and Shadow Punch.
Dusclops is withdrawn in favour of Aerodactyl which immediately uses its high speed in attempt to avoid all attacks. However, his Agility is no match for Dusknoir's sneakiness, and the ghost's DynamicShadowPunch combo finds its target, hitting for hefty damage and causing slight confusion.
This slight confusion results in a slight whack to his own face, giving Dusknoir a breather as he cools down.
Then, with Aerodactyl back to his normal state of mind and Dusknoir recovered from exhaustion the battle picks up again. Aerodactyl Taunts Oogie Boogie about his childish nickname, and in response Dusknoir uses his last chance to hit the flying creature with an Earthquake, just as the gravity lessens to the standard 9.8m/s-2.
The mob also uses their chance to beat up Aerodactyl a little as he takes flight.

Ok, I think this works.

Aerodactyl takes a chance to Roost but Dusknoir is waiting, and unleashes a huge... or not, it seems Dusknoir doesn't have enough energy!* As a result it just straight up runs out of energy and dies!
