Caribolt [Crates] (F)
Tier: ★★★☆☆
Type: Grass / Electric
Abilities: Overgrow / Galvanize (Unlocked)
- When this Pokemon's HP is lower than 33% (flat), the Base Attack Power of any grass attack is increased by two (2). (eg Giga Drain goes from 8 to 10, Solar Beam from 12 to 14)
- By default, this Pokemon's Normal-type moves are Electric-type moves, and have an additional one (1) BAP boost. When toggled, this Pokemon's Normal-type attacks have their BAP increased by one (1). Only Normal-typed moves changed by Galvanize receive this boost, and not all Electric-type moves. If a Pokemon has been skill-swapped multiple abilities that change Normal-type attacks, the attacks become dual-typed, but the BAP boosts of the abilities do not stack.

Dragapult [Diazin] (F)
Tier: ★★★☆☆
Type: Dragon / Ghost
Abilities: Clear Body / Infiltrator / Cursed Body (Unlocked)
- This Pokemon's body structure makes it immune to stat-lowering moves used by opponents. (e.g. Intimidate, Growl, Screech etc.)
- Through a combination of speed and cunning, this Pokemon easily circumvents the effects of Aurora Veil, Light Screen, Mist, Reflect, Safeguard, and Substitute with all of its attacks.
- When this Pokemon is struck by an opponent's attack, there is a 30% chance to inflict the attacker with the Disabled status. While Disabled, the attacker cannot use the move that struck this Pokemon.

Tier: ★★★☆☆
Type: Normal
Abilities: Adaptability / Download / Analytic (Unlocked)
- The moves that match this Pokemon's type have their Base Attack Power increased by one (1).
- At the beginning of the match, the Pokemon analyzes the opponent and downloads data that lets it deal more damage. This Pokemon receives a one (1) stage boost (adjusting the natural stage as well) on the offense that strikes an opponent's weaker defense stat. (e.g. does more damage with special attacks when facing Aggron, which has higher Defense, and attack when facing Hypno, which has higher Special Defense. For ties, Special Attack is raised.) If this Pokemon is sent out vs 2 or more Pokemon, combine the Defense of all opponents and the Special Defense of all opponents to determine which stat is boosted.
- If this Pokemon attacks after its target during an action, its attacks have one (1) more Base Attack Power.

Medicham [Medium] (F)
Tier: ★★★☆☆
Type: Fighting / Psychic
Abilities: Pure Power / Telepathy (Unlocked)
- This Pokemon has immense inner strength that grows with its development, raising its Attack by one Rank for each evolution level (first of three stages = 1, first of two stages or second of three stages = 2, fully evolved = 3). If Skill Swapped, the swapped Pokemon's Attack is only raised by one Rank.
- This Pokemon has a mental link with its allies in multiple battles, which allows it to avoid taking damage from allied attacks that damage each foe or the entire field like Blizzard and Earthquake. They are still affected by an opponents spread damage attacks.

Welcome everyone to this exciting battle for the Group stage of the BBP Sword and Shield tournament!
This match comes to you from Group B, a powerhouse pool of Dogfish44, Maxim, and Mowtom, each of them having won a tournament in the past! Our specific match looks at Maxim and Mowtom however so lets get a look at these two specifically!
Maxim brings a team of almost all starter Pokemon! Getting the classic Fire-, Water-, Grass-core defensive down pat and making sure that they can all pack quite the punch too! On top of the starters, he brings Gardevoir, a tried and true BBP staple with all the moves one could ever want, and strong stats to back it up! How will this team fare? Let's find out!
On the other hand Mowtom has her team of "STAB Beatsticks" as she likes to call them, which is a strategy that I personally am all for. Why worry about super effective attacks when you can just knock things out with a Hyper Beam or two?! Of particular interest on her team is Diazin the Dragapult, a speedy attacker that I'm excited to see in use.
I think that concludes it for our introductions so lets get to the good stuff! The coin flip!
head - Maxim, tails - Mowtom
That sure looks like a head to me! So this is how everything is going to shake down!
Order of Operations
Maxim sends out his first pokemon
Mowtom sends our her first and orders
Maxim orders
Gemini Taurus refs!
Best of luck to both battlers today and here's to an exciting fight!
