I am going to have to stand aside as an innocent bystander as this all unfolds.

Pikachu looks like it has barely any vital signs at this point.

+ Rikki
- Diddy Kong

+ Falco
- Mario

+King Dedede
-Little Mac.

I'll make an exception for you. I can tell you aren't an account created for this competition. 

I'll update and then I'll vote. 

Update Point

+ Riki
- Lucas

+Shulk

-Mewtwo

Mewtwo has been eliminated

Items are now open. 

Use the following format when using your items:
Vote: +5 Mario
            -7 Link
            Item: I will use <Item name> For/On/Against <Character> to benefit <character>  

It doesn't have to be exactly like this, just make sure I know who benefits and/or who loses from it. 

You can have it before if you would like. It's going to be automatically after, so let me know if you want it before. 

You typically want to use it right when you vote, and we don't want it to affect votes that came before it. 

Take that....mewtwo fan haters of Lucario!!!!!
