Alriiiight, having never done a Thanksgiving battle, I thought it would be fun to do one this year. We chose our respective Pokémon from a pool of about 15 NU/NFE birds. Why not OU you ask? A change of pace is always a nice thing from the hustle and bustle of the OU metagame. The battle for the most part was quite entertaining barring the fact our teams were similar Pokemon-wise, but not moveset-wise lol. Those ~15: Fearow, Pidgeot Farfetched, Pelipper, Prinplup Chatot Noctowl, Tailow Murkrow Togetic Staravia Xatu, Swablu Doduo Delibird Sadly, due to hax, as described by the annotations, my team's full potential was unable to be exploited. I think this is the first time I've used current NUs before haha. I don't think allowing Stealth Rock was the smartest idea. Oh well, hell of a fun and quite funny battle nonetheless. About that Crit: Without the Crit: 28-34%, or 91-107 HP wise. Simple math: 25% (brings me down to 236 HP) from Stealth Rock minus34% (107), minus 34% (107) again for being slower equals surviving with at LEAST 22 HP assuming maximum damage. Then, I would have Roosted. Anyways, thanks for the match dude, its always a pleasure to face you. Maybe I'll do more holiday-themed matches in the future. As for everyone else, enjoy your Thanksgiving and Black Friday! Happy Holidays.
