[Maverick Hunter Zero]

{This will be Mewtwo's first Foray into this challenge to test it out, go easy on me please!}

Mewtwo had decided to postpone his return to the pokemon cove for one reason only, he; as a pokemon made by human hands through Gene-splicing, would use himself as a guinie-pig in doing the fabled Boss Rush Challenge.

Sure he might be new to this, but those who encountered or even faced him knew he had the most savage nature out of all the pokemon, and even those who never even HEARD of Mewtwo would be itching to have a go against him in the arena.

Mewtwo had made sure to wear his Psychic Focus Armor so he could conserve and utilise his Psychic abilities to the fullest extent without causing a calamity and ripping a hole in the fabric of space-time. So by the time he stepped out into the arena, many citizens in the Life Sphere were ready to cheer him on as he stood in the arena.

"Bring out the dregs of this challenge... I wish to sate this arena's thirst for carnage by showing who they must endure the savage fury of." Mewtwo said, waiting for the Referee to enter and release the first adversary to be pummeled by their first ever encounter with a sentient Kanto Legendary.

Mighty horns flared as the mighty Pokemon stepped forth onto the grounds of the stadium’s battlefield. A light dash of sand disguised the stone brick floor of the arena. The Sunshine Stadium had been prepped for this new event, removing the ring that fights would normally take place in. The coliseum air that this remodel held was much more fitting for the test that was about to take place.

The plethora that had taken to the stands roared with anticipation. The brawler was in, so the match could be starting at any point. The hype for this experiment was definitely there, whether or not it would be fulfilled had yet to be seen.

Of course, what sort of Sunshine Stadium event would this be without the Master of Catastrophe himself, MC Ballyhoo? The peculiar being lifted himself from his seating in the commenter’s box and held his arms out to embrace the crowd. He then pointed to Mewtwo in the fashion that a roman emperor would when they were impressed by one of the gladiators, a gigantic grin plastered on his face.

“AHA HA HA, would you look at that Big Top! Our first contestant!”

“Huh? Oh sorry, fell asleep again”

“How could you possibly fall asleep at a time like this?! Can’t you feel the tension in the air?! A lone soldier coming to face the greatest challenge the Life Sphere has to offer! It’s poetic! It’s stupendous! It’s the Great Gladiator’s Challenge!”

“Stop trying to change the name, it’s Boss Battles”

“Bleh! That’s too drab for an event of this magnitude! Besides, none of our mighty beasts have ever been the boss of anything, the title is far too misleading! The Titanic Takedown! Yes that sounds much more fitting! Wouldn’t you agree?”

“You people are here to watch a fight not hear you talk, right?”

“Give it time, it’ll catch on. Any hoo, let’s spin the wheel of beasties!”

The cartoonish man then spun the wheel sitting directly behind him, the ticking of the pins hitting the arrow echoing throughout the coliseum. Round and round it went until finally quitting at one section of the pie, an envelope taped on the section. The commentator ripped the piece of paper off and unfolded the note on the inside. His eyes glanced over the note.

“WOAH, ladies and germs we have a stinky surprise for you today! Release the Muk!”

As Ballyhoo made his announcement, an old fashion gate on the other end of the arena from the Kanto legendary opened slowly, revealing another Pokemon native to his homeland. The purple ooze that made up the creature’s body began to slither out from its holding cell, the eyes of the mighty slime beast honing in on its enemy. “MUK!” the creature roared as it reformed into a more tangible figure.

"An easy enough start to this challenge, Lets begin the test." The kanto legendary said, eyes glowing through the visor of his helmet at this point as he unleashed a Shadow Ball of medium size against the Muk, another Kanto pokemon.

In some way, Mewtwo knew to face this one at a distance, as taking it up close would be a bad idea.

[Mr. Game & Watch]

The Muk’s oozing and bubbling body sprawled into the arena, eyeing its target of aggression. The creature began to advance toward the purple tailed abomination, though very slowly since Muks were not well known for their speed. The blob saw the shadow ball barreling toward its location and decided against avoiding the attack since it knew it could take it and above all else that would cause it to stray off its own path. The energy sphere collided with the beast, blowing off a small chunk of its acid based body. As the shrapnel landed on the ground though it slowly began to return to its main body.

The target was still out of range of the Muk’s sludgy arms, so it couldn’t quite inflict the big damage on the armour clad Pokemon, but that wasn’t the only thing the creature could do. The blob creature didn’t like the creature’s armour, so it spat a foul formulation of toxins at the creature’s body, an acid made specifically to wear down a creature’s defenses in this case wear down and melt the humanoid’s metallic suit.

DEX ROLL: |QIc6cdmp_1d20
CON ROLL: p_1d20+1=14

Mewtwo wouldn't stand for this insult from a Muk, and openly scoffed despite that the Poison-Type managed to hit him, the attacks of any poison type pokemon would only cause something akin to minimal damage as he blocked the worst of it and removed the part that was damaged by the acid.  "Time to make you wish you neverstood up from the start of the battle." Mewtwo said as he fired a Fully charged Shadow ball at the Muk, hoping that it would make the thing cringe.

STR ROLL: p_1d20+1=15

and to add insult to injury, Mewtwo launched a Disable followed by Confusion, hoping to inflict as much damage as possible to the poison-type pokemon so that it would not interfere with what Mewtwo had in store.

CHA ROLL{Disable}: p_1d20
WIS ROLL{Confusion}: p_1d20+3=141d20·1d20·1d20·1d20·1d20

(Dodge roll = 1 – 1)

(Con roll = 10 + 7)

The sludge creature made no attempts to dodge the lab rat’s shadow ball since the last one he fired off didn’t seem to do much damage either. Muks were fairly well known for being able to soak in special attacks, so this was news to nobody. The ball of dark energy flew directly into the pile of goop’s mouth, the creature swallowing it like a breath mint. It bellow its name one again “MUUUUUUUK!”

“WOAH! Just look at that thing Big Top! Is it wearing an assault vest?! How is that thing taking so many hits?!”

(Int roll = 14 - 1)

The creature ignored Mewtwo’s attempts at debuffing it and continued to sluggishly move forward. The purple goop that made up its body steaming with disease and a stench that could make any living being want to hurl.

(Dodge roll = 17 – 1)

The blob predicted its opponent’s next move and slithered away from the range of the legendary’s attack. The big mouthed sludge ball roared with laughter, spraying a bit of its gross body around. Now that the Mew clone was within a closer proximity, it was time for the beast to return a bit of the pain that the creature had been causing it. The Muk’s shadow began to move, slithering across the small distance between the two brawling Pokemon and leaped up off the ground and attempted to smack the Psychic type.

(Attack roll = 18 + 7)

“OOOOOOOH! Big Top, I think that was a Shadow Sneak! I’ve never seen a Shadow Sneak with my own two eyes! I don’t think Mewtwo’s gonna like that one!”

In addition to that, Muk decided to return the favour with a disable of its own, just to negate one of Mewtwo’s stronger moves in this confrontation, confusion.

(Cha roll = 16 - 1)

(Roll 18 to dodge Shadow Sneak and roll 14 Int for Disable)
