N's Castle rises above the Unovan Pokemon League, easily the tallest structure in the entire region. This battle takes place in the throne room, immediately after N has summoned a legendary dragon, aiming to conquer the entire Pokemon world. Further, N loves and trusts his Pokemon, and they love and trust him in return, so many of them are more powerful than they would otherwise be, here at his throne.
N's Zoroark is extremely good at mimicry, creating more powerful illusions that still have effects even when broken. If it uses the Illusion ability when sent out, it will also gain all copyable abilities that the Pokemon it pretends to be has. These abilities fade when Zoroark switches out, not when the Illusion fades.
N's Sigilyph has spent so long carrying its Life Orb that the two have developed a psychic bond. If it holds a Life Orb, this Life Orb can't be dropped, destroyed, or transferred by opponents' effects.
N's Archeops will never get demoralized when it is losing, so the ability Defeatist has no effect.
N's Darmanitan always remains calm in the heat of battle, so it may assume either Standard or Zen Mode on sendout. It then cannot change its form for the rest of the battle.
N's Conkeldurr has spent enough time being healed by N that it no longer notices pain as strongly, so it will only take 1 damage per action from burn.
N's Gigalith has been trained to resist the influence of other weathers. The sand that it sets cannot be discarded.
N's Castle is infused with the power of his legendary dragon. The first time during the battle when N's dragon is ordered to use Fusion Bolt or Fusion Flare after a Fusion move was executed the previous step, the Fusion move will have 20 BAP.
All of N's Pokemon feel intense affection towards him. The first time one of N's Pokemon would be KOed by HP damage, instead it is not KOed and its HP becomes 1.
N really likes single letters. All Z-Moves he uses ignore type immunities.

"I don't believe I've seen you around before. Nice to meet you, my name is N. Are you the type of trainer that really cares about your Pokemon? Or do you just see them as the means to an end like so many... I guess you don't have to answer, Darmanitan and I will put you to the test!"
alright everyone, you might notice that this trainer has reshiram, the pokemon of truth. you all know what that means, right?
that this was a terrible idea and we should all run away before we get owned? oh, i get it! it means that the ridiculous mechanic you were showing us, where lanturn would get hit by the electric z-move then recover the hp back with volt absorb, is irrelevant and we're going to auto-lose? ......beautiful..........creature..........
no! it means that we're fighting for the favor of zekrom, the pokemon of ideals! now let's show them what we can do!
Lanturn @ Oran Berry
Toxic ~ Hydro Pump ~ Surf
At the start of your turn, if Darmanitan has the effect Protection, then use Rain Dance the first instance and Aqua Ring the second instance, and push back.
At the start of your turn, if Darmanitan is to use Solar Beam outside of a combination this step, and the weather is not Rain, then use Rain Dance, and change Rain Dance in your first sub to Aqua Ring.
At the start of your turn, if the weather is sunny, and you are to use a damaging Water-type move this step, and Darmanitan is not to use Sunny Day on this step or any future step, then use Rain Dance, and change Rain Dance in your first sub to Aqua Ring.
At the start of the step, if Darmanitan is to use Solar Beam in a combination this step, then use Protect.
[the calcs are all right for the previous round, but lanturn's stats are incorrectly listed as 5/5/8/7/104. i wish, lol]
what's the status?
tight. one mistake, and we're gone.
Raichu-A @ Light Ball
Sing + Yawn ~ Knock Off ~ Volt Switch
At the start of the step, if Reshiram is to use Protect this step, then initiate action string Teleport ~ Knock Off ~ Fake Out the first instance, and use Feint the second instance. Don't activate this sub on consecutive steps.
(2 subs) At the start of your turn, if Reshiram is to use Sleep Talk or Snore this step, and you are to use Sing + Yawn this step, then initiate action string Knock Off ~ Sing + Yawn ~ Volt Switch and change Knock Off in your first sub to Fake Out the first instance, and initiate action string Volt Switch ~ Fake Out the second instance, pushing back each time.
At the start of the step, if Reshiram is to use Substitute this step, and Reshiram is not asleep, then use Focus Punch and push back.
