==Background==
==Background==
'''Totem Lurantis''' is the Totem of Lush Jungle. The trial begins as soon as the player enters Lush Jungle; however, they can leave at any time (though not via Charizard Glide), although this will reset the trial. Once the player has collected all four ingredients, they can leave at any time without resetting the trial. In this trial, the player receives a Forage Bag from Mallow to locate four items hidden in the jungle: a Mago Berry, a Tiny Mushroom, a Revival Herb, and a Miracle Seed. When the player finds the spot where the Tiny Mushroom is located, they are given the option to take a Tiny Mushroom or Big Mushroom. Regardless of the choice, they are attacked by a wild Parasect/Shiinotic. When the player approaches the tree the Mago Berry is buried under, a Fomantis will jump out of the tree and ambush the player. In the area the Revival Herb grows, there are three hidden objects the player can interact with, only one of which is the Revival Herb. If the player interacts with any of these objects, they will be attacked by a Fomantis; depending on whether the player chose the correct object, the Fomantis will have slightly different moves. Until completing the trial, the player can still interact with the incorrect objects after finding the correct Revival Herb. Upon collecting all four items, Mallow and the player are joined by Lana and Kiawe who have more items for the dish. Mallow asks the player to participate in each stage of the dish's preparation, requiring the player to press the A button at least five times during each stage to progress. When the Mallow Special is complete, the Totem Pokémon, Lurantis, will be lured to the aroma. In the battle with Totem Lurantis, it will call Trumbeak on its first turn, and call Castform if its HP is below approximately 2/3 (if the ally Trumbeak has been defeated). If its HP drops below approximately 2/3 before it has a chance to call an ally, it will call Castform first, then call Trumbeak at the first opportunity after Castform has fainted. Once an ally is defeated, Totem Lurantis cannot call it again. After defeating the Totem Pokémon, the player will be greeted by Mallow for completing the trial and will receive a Grassium Z as a reward. After completing the trial, wild Pokémon will appear in Lush Jungle.
'''Preparation''' is defined as a character's ability to increase their capabilities significantly. Generally, in the presence of sufficient time, resources and conditions. An example of preparation would be how normal humans are merely weak by themselves, but they can make weapons that can destroy cities with preparation. However, preparation is also an optional addition to [[Versus Threads]] as while a character doesn't have to be given preparation, many of them benefit from it or cannot invent gadgets with preparation.

==Background==
'''Totem Togedemaru''' is the Totem of the Hokulani Observatory. The trial begins when the player tells Sophocles they are ready to begin. The player can leave at any time without resetting the trial, although the tiles themselves will be reset; if the player loses a battle against any trial Pokémon (including the Totem Pokémon), they will need to complete the preceding puzzle again. In this trial, Sophocles uses two of his inventions in order to summon the Totem Pokémon. The first invention, the "Roller", requires the player to align three groups of three Charjabug in a straight line using a set of rotating panels, which can be rotated counter-clockwise by pushing one of the buttons at its corners. Once a Charjabug line has been formed, Sophocles uses their electricity to power up his second invention, the "Pinger", in order to call the Totem Pokémon. However, after the first and second Charjabug lines have been formed, the electricity instead lures in a wild Electric-type Pokémon, which the player must defeat in a battle to proceed. After the third Charjabug line has been formed, the Pinger gets too much power, causing the cables feeding it electricity and holding it in its place to detach and the device to turn to point at the Charjabug, threatening to blast them. Sophocles's Togedemaru, Togemaru, steps in and attempts to use her Lightning Rod Ability to save everyone from the incoming blast of electricity, but she is unable to contain the entire blast. At that moment, Totem Togedemaru appears and jumps in, absorbing the remaining electricity with its own Lightning Rod before challenging the player. In the battle with Totem Togedemaru, it will call Skarmory on its first turn, and call Dedenne if its HP is below approximately 2/3 (if the ally Skarmory has been defeated). If its HP drops below approximately 2/3 before it has a chance to call an ally, it will call Dedenne first, then call Skarmory at the first opportunity after Dedenne has fainted. Once an ally is defeated, Totem Togedemaru cannot call it again. After defeating the Totem Pokémon, Sophocles gives the player an Electrium Z as a reward.

*'''Zing Zap:''' A strong electric blast crashes down on the target, giving it an electric shock. This may also make the target flinch.

==Background==
'''Totem Vikavolt''' is the Totem of the Hokulani Observatory. The trial begins once the player steps forward after walking through the trial gate. The player does not have the option to exit the trial part-way through. If the player loses the battle against the Totem Pokémon, when they attempt the trial again it will start at the final security question. In this trial, Sophocles uses his invention called the "Ping Totem Pokémon 2.0" to broadcast sounds audible only to Pokémon to lure the Totem Pokémon. Sophocles activates it, causing a fuse to blow, and the trial proper to begin. Sophocles asks the player to open the security door, but in order to do so they have to complete a series of audio quizzes. If the player gets an answer incorrect, Sophocles receives an electric shock and the player is asked the question again (there is no other penalty). After completing each quiz, the player battles a Pokémon, with the player battling the Totem Vikavolt after the last quiz. In the battle with Totem Vikavolt, it will call the Charjabug that knows Vice Grip on its first turn, and call the Charjabug that knows Spark if its HP is below approximately 2/3 (if the first ally Charjabug has been defeated). If its HP drops below approximately 2/3 before it has a chance to call an ally, it will call the Charjabug that knows Spark first, then call the Charjabug that knows Vice Grip at the first opportunity after the first Charjabug has fainted. Once an ally is defeated, Totem Vikavolt cannot call it again. After defeating the Totem Pokémon, the power is restored to the observatory and Molayne bursts into the room. Sophocles gives the player an Electrium Z as a reward, and Molayne gives the player a Steelium Z.

Batman can fight Superman with preparation

Background

Preparation is defined as a character's ability to increase their capabilities significantly. Generally, in the presence of sufficient time, resources and conditions. An example of preparation would be how normal humans are merely weak by themselves, but they can make weapons that can destroy cities with preparation. However, preparation is also an optional addition to Versus Threads as while a character doesn't have to be given preparation, many of them benefit from it or cannot invent gadgets with preparation.

Types

  • Education: - Education is the ability to learn skills or knowledge that a character would not know or would improve. An example of this would be a Slugger training in another form of boxing so that they can counter a Counterpuncher style.
  • Evolution: - Evolution is the ability to adapt, grow, and become stronger before fighting an opponent. An example of this would be a character training before a battle in order to get stronger or even become passively stronger over time.
  • Technological Preparation: - Technological preparation is the ability to create gadgets, tools, weapons, etc. in order to help in combat. An example of this would be a scientist who is Human level but can make Planet level technology.
  • Information Preparation: - Information Preparation is the ability to gain information on the opponent before the battle starts. An example of this would be a character being able to find out his opponent's weaknesses.

How each of them works in a Versus Thread
