How about adding Dadge's "Analysis" and what battle effect it corresponds to?

Poison is supposed to be the equivilant of the pixie/joker only in sub-breed form. Yep seen power more than once. Everything else looks right.

I can't remember all of the quotes verbatim but here goes:

POWER - "You won't see it's true abilities until it's cornered"

ANGER - "It becomes easily enraged"

GRIT - "Giving up is not in its nature"

WILL - "Its senses are very keen."

FIGHT - "It is very passionate."

FURY - "It goes completely out of control when it's angered"

GUARD - "It knows how the endure hardships."

EASE - "It appears confident."

HURRY - "It doesn't give up until the last moment."

REAL - "It tends to hide it's true abilities."

VIGOR - "It tends to become elated."

UNITY - "They are three but have one mind."

we have fought an end bringer against a skeleton, the skeleton has slower guts. with the same stat gains as a henger/joker, but slower guts leads me to belive that skeleton is really a garlant (henger/dragon) that just has Real.

It seems that Poritoka (White Suezo) has the Real Battle Special, but there is no Suezo/Joker, so would that make it a Joker sub technically?
