Character: Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd | nastyboy Badge/Gym Leader: Chuck for the Storm Badge Elite/Regular: Regular Team:Consisting of Dean the Emboar, Gremlin the Rattata, Fowi the Luxray, Elshot the Pidgeot, Kent the Munna, Cofgodas the Raticate Battle Details: Chuck and his trainers might actually recognize Dimitri as a guy who will come by early that day to ask what kind of food Chuck liked, and then just... left! But he's back again for a proper match now, he swears.
Opening up against Hitmonlee is Dean, who is going to get right into the fray with a Power Up Punch. Dimitri feels it's only fair to go fighting against fighting, so besides using a move like Defense Curl to help beef his defense up, he'll stick to moves like the punch and Arm thrust.
With such a massive level difference, Dean will probably be able to go against Hitmonlee no problem, more likely than not, unless he's really unlucky. That means, he'll probably stick around with the exact same tactics as before, because.... honor or something? Dimitri has just decided this is how it's gonna be, and Dean seems content to go along with it.
Hopefully this all outta take out Hitmonchan too, leaving Dean is pretty good condition. However, against Poliwrath, Dimitri pulls him back both because he might be tired two battles in a row, and because of that slight type disadvantage.... But also because Dimitri feels some of his other Pokemon deserve a turn.
And that other Pokemon is Kent the Munna, who shows up with a sleepy little yawn and some batting of his pretty eyes. He's normally nocturnal, and also primarily Dimitri's sleep aid more than a battler, but he's here regardless! And, unsurprising for a Munna, he immediately starts things off on his end with Hypnosis.
And equally unsurprising is that he promptly uses Dream Eater afterwards.
It's a Munna. Nothing about this is unusual or unexpected.
Dimitri is really only using Kent because 1.) he thinks Kent deserves to get some battle spotlight now and then instead of just hanging out eating his dreams all the time and 2.) he also thinks Kent deserves eating something that aren't his chronic nightmares. So Poliwrath's dreams are just a small treat for him, so that he knows what a good job he's done!
This one Dream Eater probably won't be enough to take out Poliwrath - Kent is around the same level, after all. But that's fine, because, treat given, Dimitri pulls Kent back and unleashes Gremlin the Rattata. Yes, he's doing that again. Fortunately, despite the type disadvantage on Gremlin's end, he has the level advantage, and Poliwrath already having been weakened beforehand.
That means Gremlin won't have to do many Quick Attacks or Hyper Fangs before Poliwrath likely gives up.
This seems like a lineup that ought to do the trick, but just in case any of it goes wrong, Dimitri still has three other Pokemon in the wings: Cofgodas the Raticate, Fowi the Luxray (paralyze for days), and, most importantly, Elshot the Pidgeot, who can just ruin a lot of Fighting Type's days with plenty of Flying type moves.
Regardless of the outcome, Dimitri will thank Chuck for his time, and then offer him a small basket of what he was told were his favorite snacks! He feels really bad about skipping over him, and he wants to make it clear it wasn't out of disrespect.
