Here's a cute gif:

Yecch, forgot about this; Sorry.

This is about when I realize that I didn't alter the switch rules to fit the format change. There goes two perfectly viable plans :/.

Bonemerang - Bonemerang - Bonemerang
If successful p/e move, use Focus Energy on the first instance, and Chill on the second.
If successful Dodge, Chill that action.

"OH THANK GOODNESS YOU DIDN'T PERISH SONG. I was really worried about you Perish Songing and then stalling."

Why would I use Perish Song in a switch=ko battle when you have U-turn?

I actually didn't see the Switch=KO. I was thinking "Oh no, that's a free win", but U-Turn would just get rid of that, so I'm fine now

That would be correct.

When in Rome, do as the Romans in an easily remedied fashion do in your own effort to have a small chance of avoiding stall-related headaches when ordering first in the next round.
