>>58358125Made it to Semifinals vs Marnie and Hop. Some of my mons(Dad and Candyfloss) actually reached too high a level to be used. Leveling past the cap during the fights themselves, I don't really care about, but starting out above is not okay.
Vs Marnie
>LiepardLiepard Snarls at Tia, who sets up Reflect.
Liepard Nasty Plots, then gets Trop Kicked.
The cat wastes its final turn on a Torment, and then falls to U-Turn. I send in Uncle Sam, whose Flame Orb activates.

Uncle Sam in, Flame Orb Burn.

Punky reaches Level 50.
>MorpekoMorpeko Torments Uncle Sam, who hit himself.
I send in Kevin Mouse, on Spark which Paralyzes Kevin. This makes me decide against going for Stockpile setup.
Another Spark, and Kevin is Fully Paralyzed. Reflect fades.
Morpeko Torments Kevin, who gets in a Draining Kiss to do damage and heal back up.
I send Tia back in on another Spark.
Morpeko Bites Tia as she sets up Reflect.
One more Bite, then Morpeko fall to U-Turn, letting Kevin Mouse back in.
>Gigantamax GrimmsnarlGrimmsnarl lets loose a Max Starfall, and Kevin's Dazzling Gleam does a bit less than half in return.
However, the next Max Starfall scores a crit, blasting poor Kevin out of the game.
In comes Korramoron, who's holding a Choice Scarf.
She hits a Surf, gets hit by a Max Starfall, and Gulp Missile activates.
Another Surf finishes off the Grimmsnarl.
Korramoron reaches level 50, and Uncle Sam level 51.
