There was no Mario character in this match idea.

The background: Working with the SSB "Super Powers" (don't ask), we have managed to create this match-up. we want to see how well Yoshelly could work with others, and we needed Fox & Samus to start fighting. I suggested that we listen to Knuckel's idea for a "Battle of the Sexes" contest, and they obliged quickly. However, they took over from there. They wanted a tag-team match (the combatants that I listed, not Knuckels) with low items, and the cheap items disabled (home run bat, hammer, heart, maximum tomato, and star). CPU is at level 8, team attack was on, and the stock is 3 lives per fighter. After I agreed, the contest was set. This match-up will determine how the future "Battle of the Sexes" fights will shape up. So, without further ado, LET THE CARNAGE BEGIN!

    Donkey Kong managed to throw not only Samus, but also Fox as well. Samus quickly screw attacked Fox afterwards, F21 DK0 S19 Yg0. Everyone started to get in on the action, with Fox & Yoshelly getting a little too close...to the lava that is, F39ND DK19 S30 Yg27ND. The lady dinosaur managed to turn DK into an egg. After some more hit trading, Yoshelly was trying to swallow and spit out Fox, but bagged Samus instead, F68 DK45 S52ND Yg49. The teams started to fight over who would kill a certain member of each time, & Fox was lucky that he didn't send DK to death via lava bath, F93 DK84ND S66 Yg58. A small capsule fell on the upper-left platform during the time, and both Fox & Samus wanted it. Fox attacked the capsule, and it was really a bob-omb that send Fox to oblivion & Samus pretty close to it. Yoshelly & DK were settling their differences in the meantime on the main platform, F0D1 DK117D0 S117NDD1 Yg70D0.

    For some reason, during the trade wars, all of the combatants touched the lava at least once. While DK & Yoshelly were basically okay, Fox took the most lava baths, though Samus couldn't stand her one dip, F70D1 DK140D0 S0D1 Yg102D0.

    Another trade war started with powerful moves, but Yoshelly suffered from the powerful lava instead. Samus, though, was having a blast with her grappling hook, 100D1 DK160NDD0 S37D1 Yg0D1.

    While Samus wasn't hurt during the next few seconds, her partner suffered quite a bit when her invincibility wore off, from a screw attack to a DK throw. Both blue team members couldn't handle the Metroid hunter that easily, F119 DK168 S37 Yg42. Yoshelly again turned the Main Monkey into an egg, which escalated a trade war. The dino swept Fox's second life from under his feet, and DK threw Samus. However, Cranky's son never saw a KO hip drop from Yoshelly, F0D2 DK0D1 S92NDD1 Yg58D1.

    Water, water, everywhere--we're gonna get wet...opps, wrong song. I meant, Lava, lava, everywhere. Fortunately, the lava was pretty low, so those who were sent to it didn't die, F38 DK0 S104 Yg124. Plenty of lasers, throws, and punches were abound when the lava crept up to Yoshelly and sent her away, F92D2 DK60D1 S144D1 Yg0D2.

    While Yoshelly was going to heaven, a trade war started. When Yoshelly came back, though, she accidentally hip-dropped her partner when Yoshelly was aiming for DK, F94D2 DK79D1 S0D2 Yg0D2.

    Welcome to Mario Party, where there is always a party...again I'm off topic. I meant, "Welcome to Throw Party." DK was sent to the life-stealing lava by a throw, and so was his partner. For that matter, Fox is out of the game! However, they did manage to hurt Yoshelly heavily before they passed away, F(OUT) DK0D2 S32D2 Yg84D2.

    The remaining combatants have one life left, so they must be careful. Samus was starting to take on DK until he took his anger on Yoshelly instead, DK25 S48 Yg119ND. The red team thought they would lose, but a miracle happened! DK, though he did hurt his opponents a few times, was sent to the lava FOUR times. The final time, by Yoshelly, ensured her team's victory, DK0D3 S64D2 Yg132D2.

This games winner is: The red team!

The better player of the team is: Yoshelly!

Post-Match:


    Back in the SSB Superpowers office, the main guy on the powers team named "Powers" (natch) saw the fight and commented that it was one of the best fights yet. Just then, Mash Toady, interview extraordinaire and SSB Superpowers worker, brought a surprise guest in. "Powers," Mash started, "I have brought him in."
    "Good," Powers said. "Take the rest of the day off."
    "Yippee!" Mash exclaimed. And he quickly bolted out of the door.

    "Okay," said the mystery person, "Why did you call me?"
    "I was told that you can use Mario's moves. Is that correct?"
    "I can use his moves, all right. Do you want me to face Mario, mister?"
    "Against both Mario & Luigi in a triangle match. If you accept, I'll give you $5,000. But, if you accept, there's a catch: If you wish to not fight again, you must either win or tie with someone in your debut fight. Should you tie, you must win that Sudden Death to not have to fight again. If you lose in either competition, you are permanently a part of the SSB fighting team. Got that?"
    "I WANT THE MONEY! GIVE ME! GIVE ME! GIVE ME!"
    "Okay, here you go. Just remember the deal. Oh, and by the way, you sure are greedy when it comes to money. I kind of like that in a person."
    "No problem, boss. MONEY, MONEY, MONEY! YOU'RE WITH...WARIO NOW! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Wario quickly started to head to his next match-up.
    "This is going to be fun working here," Powers said. "I'm going to like it here." (He smirks)

What did you think of the match? Do you want more "Battles of the Sexes"? Will Wario do a good job in his debut fight? Should these SSB "Superpowers" stay working here? Should Mash Toady work for them, or be independent? Do you think Jigglypuff should have taken over instead of Yoshelly? Do you think I've asked too many questions? Was that a yes or a no? Head here and cast your reaction.
