Battle Bracket (Round 1 Pairing 3)
So I've decided how many rounds
@UnovanZorua at most 30, which seems reasonable
However 30 doesn't equally add up to a finals battle
So, I'm pushing it to 32
This will probably be my last hand select one before the draw of the hat decides
Single Strike Urshifu versus Rapid Strike Urshifu
Right now, I'm thinking Rapid just because Single is weak to Fighting, but who knows!
I'll find out when I do my research
Who will win?
Three days to vote
Enjoy!

- Dark/Fighting vs. Water/Fighting
- Single Strike’s Wicked Blow is not very efective (Dark vs. Water/Fighting)
- Rapid Strike’s Surging Strikes is neutral (Water vs. Dark/Fighting).
- No super-effective edge but Rapid strike takes not very efective damage.
- Speed: Both base 97 Speed — they’re evenly matched here.
- Rapid Strike Urshifu often wins slightly more often due to Surging Strikes ignoring Focus Sash and having higher reliability against physical walls.
- But Single Strike can OHKO if it lands a Wicked Blow and gets the first move and their defense stat is low.(especially with Choice Scarf).
Edited.

In no Items Rapid strike
With Items it is Single Strike. Also Why did it make that dot on the blank part I only put it at the words.

Rapid Strike. Purely because I don't like using Single Strike.

Rapid Strike has a signature move that's more fun to use and that's enough to make me think it would win.
