. This fails and he dies. However, now there are two universes, the second of which is based off of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon universe.
. This fails, and now he shares a body with a guy named Walter. (Worship is currently in control, however, but he's better now. Ish.)
. This fails, but instead of dying, they proceed to lurk in shadows.
. This fails, and he is sealed away.
up again. Meanwhile, so does a robot named Coda, the trio of Badniks from before, and several other villains, making it a callback to (mostly) all above events, which is where we left off.
...Yep. It's me. Beta Shadow. And actually, it's that whole "fighting me" thing that I'm here about.
You see... I'm not sure if you know about Beta Devil, but he got EXTREMELY powerful. And in order to be able to face that, I'm in need of some training. And on top of being the Christmas season and all that... Well. I decided to finally give you that fight you've been seeking. Consider it my gift to you this year.
...However. There are going to be some conditions to this fight.
First off, I will not be going Ultra Instinct, not even in its Sign state... In return, however, you are NOT to use the Theta Sigil, or any other alternate form or technique.
...Secondly, and this is the most important part... No. Killing. Each other. There would be dire consequences for us BOTH if the other were to bite the dust... So, all-in-all, I'd much rather avoid the matter altogether.
...That being said... Are there any conditions you would like to add?
Well, if we're gonna play the whole "conditions" game, I've got some "rules" of my own.
First of all, the stage caps' going to be extended from 5 or 6, to 9. 6 seems like a random number for a cap, don't you think?
Second, both our levels will be temporarily reduced to 1. After both of us make a move however (I.E, one turn), our levels will go UP by one. This'll also affect the moves we're able to use. I.E, I'd have to wait until about Level 22 before I can launch Shock Waves.
And third, no item use. This also includes HELD items, by the way.
Now then, LET'S DO THIS! By the way, recently gave my eyelids an artstyle upgrade. Cool, huh?
...okay, changing back to our December 25th plan. We're alone this round.
Way ahead of you! 
...are you sure these are ideal designs?
Sure I'm sure! It's got arms, a gun...what else do you need?
...maybe some legs...
Shush.
...truthfully, I would have recommended the RX-93‡ blueprints we have, but it was your call.
ERROR. INABILITY TO ENTER MECH.
There. Problem solved.
Well, I've been put in a less than ideal situation, I'll give them that. Being put in a hostage situation is... a surprising first. But if this is the way it is...
Then there's no way I'm going without a fight.
There you are! There's no time to explain, we need to leave now!
...
...Alright. But this attack will not go unaccounted for. At all costs someone will be held responsible for this.
Fine by me. I'll let you have the first move.
(This guy... Not much earlier, this place was swarming with Badniks, but now, they- along with the machines that have been spawning them- have been completely destroyed... Alongside a great portion of the forest itself! Just what is this guy trying to gain...!?)
Oh, come on, now! Don't tell me that's the best you've got!
Enough playing around. Tell me who you are, and why you're here!
Who am I? Why, it should be obvious... I'm the new king of this world!
...Is that right?
...We'll see about that.
Hah! Bet you'll be thinking twice before trying to mess with one of us!
Not really, no. So far you haven't even done enough to do so much as annoy me yet.
Huh--
Too slow, too slow! You won't be able to hit me with that kind of speed!
(He's fast.. If my Danger Senses didn't kick in at that moment, I don't know if I could've gotten away. On top of that, nothing I hit him with seemed to do any real damage, even though I attacked him with full strength. What is this guy?)
(..No, don't panic. Panicking is going to end up doing you in. Be smart... Be smart...)
Have a nice ride!
!!!
No!
What a lowly move, using other people for his own gains. It's no wonder someone like you--
Hmmm.
..... (This is my fault. We lost him because I got in the way, and you paid for it.)
...
...Listen, it's not your fault. You didn't know what to do, and that's fine. The important thing is that this experience molds you.
Now, come on. We've got an Arachnid to catch.
I can't feel my legs, or anything under... but I got away. Though I'd probably be better off trying to find the others, or next time I might not get off so lucky.
It seems like things are finally getting interesting... Just they wait. Soon enough, it'll be us who comes out on top.
Clock Men I can only hope you didn't know what the results of that would be.
We didn't...at all
It doesn't matter if they did or not, its extremely worrying that they even could manage to power up like that in the first place...
Besides...we already have Beta Devil around as well...
