Shuvi the Metagross (★★★⭒ ⭒)

Bio

See, that's one of the new souls I came across when exploring Galar. A Beldum is rare enough, but a shiny one is just icing on the cake. However, that was only part of the appeal. You see, when we came face to face around an alley (what was she doing here in the first place?), she just... stood there. Not really afraid, just curious. And analytic. Actually, being analytic is one of the core aspects of both her personality and battle style. Her immense brain power allows her to accurately calculate the possibilities of a battle at a given time, thus projecting a bit into the future. However, she still has trouble to account for an opponent's odd behavior, leading to miscalculations.
She also doesn't speak that often. Usually, it's only a few words to give her opinion on the situation at hand. It seems like she's actually afraid to open up to people and mingle with the team. Oh, well. Hopefully that'll get better with time!

Agnès Oblige the Togekiss (★★★⭒ ⭒)

Bio

Another dimension hopper or something, Agnès casually landed in the middle of the camp one day, trumpeting that she had finally found us. Apparently she had tried to locate us for one month. She somehow ended up at Mount Lanakila on the way! How?!
She quickly resumed her happy relationships with old and new team members alike, everyone being softened by her friendly manners and clumsy attitude. Still the best member to soar the skies, she can act as a scout, which is quite useful in this unknown territory. She's also really fond of the curry found a bit everywhere around these parts.

Sir Olberic Eisenberg the Sirfetch'd (★★★⭒ ⭒)

Bio

Sir Olberic Eisenberg (Berg for short) is a Galar native who decided to accompany us on his quest for revenge against some dark forces. Not sure I like the sound of that, because I've seen enough cosmic destroyers and dimensional shifts for my entire life, but several members of the group instantly agreed to help him so... there we are.
Honestly, he's a good recruit: with so many team members focused on pelting at the opponent, having someone take the front lines and hold them is a key component for battles. And he's good at it, too! Swinging his lance/sword/leek/thing almost seems natural to him, and that shield is pretty effective to block ranged attacks too.
He's also surprisingly popular with the ladies, though I don't think he knows that (or care), to their dismay.

Why does everyone look so impatient?

listens to whisper from offstage

Ah. This is the last of the battles to get started, huh. Sorry for the wait, everyone! On the left side, we have S0L1D G0LD, henceforth referred to as Gold to save on my sanity. He's brought a team that certainly does not lack in power, but will that translate to a victory? Pay attention mostly to Judgement the Volkraken, who has the dubious honor of being the only team member to not be easily handled by an opposing Metagross. On the right, we have TMan87, who in the generational shift has lost his Swagger and instead become Draining Kiss. As fascinated as I am by the chance to see a Sirfetch'd in action, the mon to watch on this side is Shuvi the Metagross, who has the not at all dubious honor of having a good matchup against everyone other than the opposing Volkraken. Time to flip a coin for first sendout, heads means the left and tails the right!

And it's tails! Therefore:
TMan87 sends out and equips

Palutena and Sir Olberic Eisenberg take the field, in what is one of the more lopsided type matchups I've seen. Sir Olberic seems to agree with that assessment, detecting and avoiding two of the three attacks Palutena throws his way. He can't dodge forever, though, and the one attack he takes sends him reeling. Sir Olberic manages to jab Palutena with a fist coated in poison in exchange, though she seems to shake off the blow mostly unfazed.

A completely different matchup is on the field, starring Agnes Oblige the Togekiss and...

Um...

consults RNG

Detent the Darmantitan! Detent gets us started with a barrage of icicles that leave Agnes reeling, though she remains focused enough to waggle her finger and spew a whole bunch of poisonous threads onto her foe. Now that Detent is slower, Agnes fires off a signature Air Slash, only to find that her item isn't doing anything at all as the slash veers wide. Detent retaliates with more icicles. Trying again with more care, Agnes manages to hit and flinch her foe on the final action! Agnes now has to deal with first order and an enormous HP deficit in a bad matchup, though, so let's see how the next round goes.

Detent protects himself from having to take another blade of air, getting Agnes annoyed at him wasting her time. She responds by sending a blast of fire at her foe, energized by her supernatural good luck. The scorching heat manages to burn Detent, causing the stone he throws to be less potent! It does lower Agnes' speed though, and said supernaturally good luck can't stop her from flinching under a barrage of icicles. Detent has managed to shake off the brunt of the poisonous webbing by now, and despite racking up residual damage looks to finish off his foe next round!

S0L1D G0LD a reminder!

 

[Gemini Taurus]

S0L1D G0LD I understand that you are on LoA but I did issue a reminder and I've given you the extra day on DQ here.

This is officially DQ warning, we need to keep tourney on schedule, please order ASAP.

 

[S0L1D G0LD]

Understood.

Ice Punch - Icicle Crash - Ice Punch
If Togekiss is Enduring and Togekiss is not under the effects of Fire Spin, start action chain Fire Spin - Rest - Ice Punch.
If Detect in a combination a1 and not damaging priority combination a3, start action chain Rest - Sleep - Sleep Talk (Powder Snow, Ice Punch, Icicle Crash, Ice Fang).
If damaging priority move in a combination, use Protect that action and push back back.

"Well, Agnès, that's curtains from you. All you can do now is prepare the terrain for your successor."
"Awww... But I wanted to take on the Conkeldurr..."

Protect | (Extremespeed + Focus Punch) | cooldown (Extremespeed)

[check at start of round] IF somehow (Extremespeed + Focus Punch) isn't legal THEN use (Extremespeed + Sky Attack) A2

Agnes desperately stalls for time, avoiding Detent's first attack and causing him to suffer a little bit of damage. She then uses a sub technicality to cause Detent to waste a bunch of energy blocking her attack, when he could have simply attacked and KOed her! Eventually though, the icicles strike true, and Agnes falls. The first KO of the battle has finally arrived, and only five other battles have already finished!

Sir Olberic Eisenberg the Sirfetch'd is back on the field!

Meteor Assault | Quick Attack | Rock Smash

[CASOA] IF Darmanitan is ordered to use an unsuspended D/E move AND you are not Sluggish AND not in a combo AND you are not to use Quick Attack THEN Sky Attack
IF under P/E THEN Feint, restart queue and replace Meteor Assault with Brick Break in the main orders
IF damaging Psychic-type combination A1 THEN Protect and push back

"Reap what you've sown."

Facade + Facade - Cooldown (Facade + Facade) - Facade

---------
This set comes very rushed. It's my understanding that this combo runs a base EN cost ~20, and can be successfully used by my mon. If I'd die without executing the move, instead of after it hits, I'd appreciate if the following order set could be used instead.

Dig (hold) - Dig (attack) - Facade

Sir Olberic Eisenberg comes back out, and with one mighty blow manages to almost defeat Detent. However, the latter hangs on by a tad, and uses all the rest of his energy to deliver an equally crushing blow the other way! Sir Olberic is now weakned and sluggish, likely to be easy prey for whoever comes in next.

Palutena returns to face Sir Olberic once more. The duck realizes what's coming for him and gets off one quick strike before being taken down by a kiss that heals off more damage than the strike did! Gold has taken quite a comfortable lead, and his only task now is to keep it.
