: Hello everybody! Welcome back to another exciting beginner battle! Everyone welcome HydrogenHydreigon, for whom this is their inaugural battle!
: Calculating... I don't detect any major advantages between our two players, so this should be an exciting one!
: *Flips coin* Ok, looks like Coolcodename is sending out first.
: Here is how its going to work. First, Coolcodename will send out a pokemon. Then, HydrogenHydreigon will send out a pokemon and give it orders (and maybe some substitutions). Then Coolcodename will give their orders, and chuckeroo777 will Ref the results.

: Oof. Unfortunately, hitting a clone counts as a miss, so Amity won't be switching.
: Double Team (2) has a 1/3 chance of immediately failing, a 1/3 chance of blocking 1 hit, and a 1/3 chance of blocking 2 hits, making it mostly a more unreliable version of protect. It can also be countered by using spread moves like Surf or Discharge.

: Stat boosts and debuffs are generally not as nasty in BBP, due to being additive rather than multiplicative, but they can certainly add up. Luckily, Emolga is a mixed attacker, though I'm not sure how much longer they can hold on.

chuckeroo777 could you confirm that counterswitching is ok here? thx

Actually, you cannot counterswitch, since this is not a switch but a sendout + first order package.
