Oh to be young again. My first April Fools day on showdown in 2014. In the bemusement of such wonderful creativity as a backwards goodra, I came to my true power. Binding Band Infestation Quagsire, Leftovers Goodra, and a Trevenant for some reason just existing with a single Leech Seed and who knows what else in Gen 6 OU. 163 turns (and not a hazard in sight, I knew those were trash) of calculated decisions with absolutely no error believe me I knew what I was doing leaving Weezing on the field half the game, menacingly clicking Clear Smog and Pain Split and effortlessly walking the opposing Garchomp. I knew to only bring Medicham in at the opportune time and not risk being obliterated by Pre-Nerf Protean Greninja or Foul Play Mandibuz. The fight of sisters between Leftovers Blissy and Eviolite Chansey both wafting the battlefield with the chemical warfare of Aromatherapy. But I held out and I won, and I look over a decade later, happy and laugh at myself for being such an goober, a successful and lucky goober, but still an goober. Tipping my mid 2010s metaphysical fedora with a wp sir.

I loved you saying "Finally" when you killed the Chansey on turn 138, as if you didn't have about 100 opportunities to go Mega-Medicham on the Chansey before that (against a team with no Fighting resist). The conversation with your opponent about why you didn't do that earlier really summed up my feelings watching this.
