Halloween Battle: Pumpkinhead VS Sans (PRELUDE)




*UL came running In dressed as Freddy Krueger*


UL: HAPPY HALLOWEEN BITCH!


*A bat them came flying into the room as it exploded into a puff of smoke, revealing to Mettaton dressed as Dracula*


Mettaton: Yes darlings, it is that time of year once again! HALLOWEEN!~


UL: That's right, and it's time to get the spooky flowin' and those bowls of Candy full!


Mettaton: Don't forget putting the Jack-O-Lanterns on your front porch and the Skeleton hanging on the front door. OH! Which reminds us, that'll be our combatants for today!


UL: The Pumpkin and The Skeleton are essential to the Halloween Spirit. So, it wouldn't make sense if we got two of the most deadliest of these two Halloween Essentials clashed against each other!


Mettaton: And if you are causing any wrong-doings, expect these two to make sure you pay for it!~



UL: Pumpkinhead, The Demon of Vengeance!



Mettaton: And Sans, the Lazy Pun spouting Skeleton!~


UL: Hello, I am an Unemployed Loser and He's Mettaton!


Mettaton: And we are here to analyze their weapons, armor, strength, and skill to see who would win a DEATH BATTLE!~

_________________________________________________________________________________________



Mettaton: Whenever you feel like someone has done you wrong, whenever you feel cheated and lied to, How far would possibly you go to risk everything just to get your revenge.


UL: Well apparently, if you feel like that or someone swore on your Christian Minecraft, there's actually something you could do to get back at that douchebag that did you dirty!


Mettaton: Deep within the Appalachian Mountains, inside of the forest, there lies a cabin which is home to the witch known as Haggis, who will tend to your wills at a nifty price.


UL: And that very nifty price is some of your blood...oh, and your soul. Because that's vengeful demons always tend to need! 


Mettaton: Once you made the trade, Haggis will create a spell that awakens a great and evil power...


UL: A demon that stood at an imposing nine feet and with a craving for vengeance, this demon has terrorized humanity for centuries...


Mettaton: The monster's name...? PUMPKINHEAD!

--



UL: Jesus, Look at this thing. Did Freddy Krueger get drunk and got into threesome with Squidward and a Xenomorph?...


Mettaton: Why is it that you like to put disturbing images in my head?!


UL: Hey, I'm just saying! Not my fault if that actually happen... did it?


Mettaton: Okay, let's not make this any weirder than it is. Anyways, as a demon driven by vengeance, Pumpkinhead houses incredible strength. He can easily mutilate a human in various ways from smashing their head in with a single grip or pulling their jaw bone out by a mere finger, but he's also strong enough to lift and toss a motorcycle and even once lifted a truck with one arm!~


UL: And despite his appearance, he's incredibly fast. Capable of keeping pace with a speeding motorcycle and even capable of dodging gunfire with relative ease! And he has some capability of slash porting like all seemingly indestructible slasher has.


Mettaton: But Pumpkinhead's best feats of physicality is his durability, because it's literally indestructible from all pain! From gunfire, holy water, corrosive acid, slashes from fellow demons, point blank explosions you name it!~

UL: While Pumpkinhead may seem like a brute, he's quite smarter than the average Demon! He's smart enough to fake his death which causes them lower his opponent's guard, Sealed off a church to trap his victims, and is an expert torturer, always killing his opponents slow. Because, the slower the death, the more painful it is!


Mettaton: Other abilities Pumpkinhead brings to the table is his tracking skills, where he always knows the location of his targets, even if their hiding or not. And it can also bring powerful storms that lower the temperature and strong gusts of wind!


UL: It's also super stealthy and acrobatic despite it's hulking size, but it's best ability is it's regeneration. Again, due to it only being harmed if his summoner is harmed, Pumpkinhead has some good regeneration going on for him.


Mettaton: Such examples is that his flesh was able to heal quick enough after being blasted by corrosive acid, gunshots, and even if his summoner is harmed, he can still heal from the damage!~

--

--


UL: To make use of disemboweling his victim, Pumpkinhead has his razor sharp claws. Which not only can rip through flesh with no problem but it can even cut through solid metal!


Mettaton: He also has a devil-like tail which he can use to grab or sustain opponents and is strong enough to push back Pride, a towering demon that's almost the same height and weight of Pumpkinhead himself!~


UL: However, he has a creative eye when it comes to killing. When he thinks his claws don't do the trick, he'll use what ever is laying around! Such times involved him using Sloth's acidic vomit against another Sin Demon or impaling a guy with a shotgun! 


Mettaton: All these slashers really have creative sides! It's a shame they're killing instead of doing art.


UL: Well they could do both! Paint the canvas with blood, y'know.

--

UL: Pumpkinhead is a force to be reckoned with and it defiantly shows, but he is not one without weaknesses. Pumpkinhead has one enormous weakness and that's because when summoned, he is bonded with the summoner.


Mettaton: Because of that, if the summoner takes damage or is killed, Pumpkinhead will be taken down with him.


UL: And let's not forget that Pumpkinhead can also be killed by Sin Demons, who can somehow bypass the summoner crap. And he could have died had it not been for his regenerative abilities.

--

WEAKNESS

--

"Bolted doors and windows barred,

Guard dogs prowling in the yard,

Won't protect you in your bed,

Nothing will, from Pumpkinhead!"

_________________________________________________________________________________________



Mettaton: After making their way out of the ruins and getting into an encounter with an Omnicidal flower and a caring Goat mother, Frisk made it out into the Snowdin Forest. But when they made it in, their first impressions were rather ominous.


UL: Something was stalking them through the woods, and upon entering a bridge with an incredibly long gate for someone to easily slide through



UL: The poster boy of the entire internet. 


Mettaton: I honestly don't understand why he's more popular than me...



UL: Sans, easily put... is a lazy, pun-spouting mess of a skeleton who is always chill and smelling of dog.


Mettaton: And let's not forget the countless of dumb pranks that he's pulled o-


*blink* 


*Mettaton and Unemployed Loser had mustaches drawn on them with magic marker*


Mettaton: WHAT THE!? SANS!


Sans: i got your favorite nuts. MUSTACH-ios!


Mettaton: THIS MAKE-UP TOOK ME HOURS TO PERFECT,  COME HERE!


*Both Sans and Mettaton run off while Unemployed Loser is left behind*


UL: Okay, bottom line is... Sans doesn't seem like that much a threat, he's just a harmless prankster who just wants some fun... at first. What if behind that never-changing smile, He's hiding something. Something that, he's pretending to like you in order to gain your trust. Maybe... he secretly wants to kill you.



UL: Okay, outdated 2006 memes aside, he probably doesn't but... if you killed everyone? Well. You're in for it now... Also I'm not gonna say your gonna have a bad time, that is way too easy.

--

SANS

Full Name: Sans the Skeleton

Species: Skeleton

Occupation: Sentry, Prankster


FEATS

One of the few characters in the game who knows about the SAVE Function

-Can't use it himself, but he managed to find information about it

Considered one of the hardest enemies in Undertale

Somehow created a self-sustaining tornado of trash

Capable of pranking people across time and space

Killed Flowey and made him reset the most out of any monster

Fought the Chara-possessed Frisk, who at this point is capable of killing large groups of monsters with ease

-Nearly won against them, only losing because he fell asleep while trying to stall them

Actually made Chara/Frisk, a psychotic murderer, get nervous during their fight with him

The only enemy in the game smart enough to take the first turn, use their strongest attack first, and actually dodge Frisk's blows

Almost forced Frisk to reset during their battle, by never taking his turn to lock them both in place forever

Master of puns and pranks

-Pranked Frisk three times

--



Mettaton: *uff*...Damn teleporting skeleton...*huff*...what I miss?


UL: Well, were going over physicality and honestly, you ain't missing much.


Mettaton: Mmm... You're not wrong. In terms of strength, the only known strength feats Sans has pulled off was being able to shatter a heavy branch and lifted someone's soul.


UL: As for durability, to put it as bluntly as possible... It's absolute shit.


Mettaton: However, it's all made up for his speed is where it makes up! He's capable of dodging attacks from Frisk/Chara, who are capable of dodging incoming spears, lightning, lasers, and even incoming beams of light and double that with his teleportation and he's honestly untouchable!~

--

PHYSICALITY


Strength:

-Can lift and slam the player around by their soul if they're in Blue Mode

-Implied to have shatter a branch to large for Frisk to lift on his own


Immense Speed and Reflexes:

-With his guard up, can dodge any attack Frisk sends at him

-While sleeping, woke up right before an attack hit him and dodged it

-Combined with his teleporting, can unleash a barrage of high-speed attacks that give little room for dodging


Durability:

-Stood up and walked away from a hit that dealt 999 damage

-Other than that, is pretty frail

*Only has 1 HP during his boss fight

--

UL: Again, Sans may not look like a huge threat but he's more than meets the eye. His intelligence is quite surprising. Not only does he have sufficient knowledge on quantum physics, but he also has knowledge over timelines and the SAVE function as well.


Mettaton: He can even lower his opponent's guard down by pretending to show mercy by finishing them off by skewering them with a wall of bones!~


UL: Sans can even manipulate RPG rules by using his strongest attacks first and then trapping the opponent in an eternal wait much like waiting in line for McDonalds and the person in front of you is asking for an insane number of food!


Mettaton: And to top that off, Sans is a master of pranks as you seen recen-


*blink*


*Mettaton was now dressed in a pink fairy costume while Unemployed Loser drops his jaw*


Mettaton: ...YOU LITTLE SON OF A-



--

SKILLS


Surprisingly Intelligent:

-Learned about the SAVE Function, and is one of the few people to know about it

-A tactical and scientific genius

-Figured out how many times he'd killed Frisk just by looking at their face

-Aware of the many alternate timelines

-In battle, will pretend to spare his foes before finishing them off while their guard is down


Very Genre Savvy:

-Often manipulates standard RPG tropes in battle to trick enemies

-Unlike other enemies in the game, takes the first turn in combat, unleashes his strongest attack first, and actually dodges Frisk's attacks

-When he learned he couldn't beat Frisk, decided to do nothing during his own turn, preventing Frisk from having his turn in hopes of waiting him out


Master of Pranks:

-Pranks Frisk several times through the story, usually with a whoopie cushion

--



*Mettaton is back in his Vampire costume*


Mettaton: I am honestly glad I have a highly reactive and fast dress crew... Now then, onto what Sans can pull off.


UL: In a fight, Sans pulls out the big BONES!...Okay, nevermind. Anyways, Sans can summon bone projectiles and they can come into various sizes from big to small, and even blue bones which will damage foes if they walk into it! Or he can make simple bone cages to trap his opponents so that they can get dunked on!


Mettaton: Sans also can manipulate the very soul of opponents, his tactic is Blue. With this, he can manipulate the gravity of the soul by telekinetically slamming it into walls or keeping it in place! He can also teleport himself and others around locations and avoid attacks!~


UL: But what makes Sans deadly are his Gaster Blasters, dragon-like heads that fire powerful beams right from their mouths and he can summon a CRAP TON!


Mettaton: But Sans' most dangerous ability is his KR Effect, which literally translates to KARMA. This ability is capable of ignoring durability and acts as a poison that slowly chips away at opponent's health. And if you were to commit more sins, then you can certainly feel them crawling on your back...


UL: Oh, he also has a Special Attack which is...



--

POWERS AND WEAPONS


Bones:

-Sans' and Papyrus' main method of attack

-Sends out massive amounts of bones to attack his foes

-Do little damage separately, but a large amount of them, combined with Karmic Retribution, can deal massive amounts of punishment

-Has Blue Bones as well, which only damage foes if they move

-Can form cages of bones to trap opponents


Soul Manipulation/Blue Mode:

-Turns the opponent's soul blue

-Makes it affected by gravity, preventing the foe from moving in any way besides jumping

-Can use it to lift the opponent and slam them around by their soul with his mind like this

-Can be used to pin the foe to walls



Teleportation:

-Can teleport himself and others

-Uses it as a shortcut to other places

-Used in battle to avoid attacks and move his foe straight into a new attack once his old one ends


Gaster Blasters:

-Dragon skull-shaped laser cannons

-Fire powerful lasers from their mouths

-Can summon as many as he wants


Karmic Retribution:

-A side effect of Sans' attacks

-Occurs when Sans lands a hit on his foe

-Acts as a poison for the soul, chipping away at the opponent's health until it wears off

-The more sins the opponent has committed, the more damage it does


"Special Attack":

-It's literally nothing

-When it's his turn to attack, stands and waits instead

-Used to stall the opponent, preventing them from attacking or leaving the battle, in hopes that they'll quit

-May not be useful outside of an RPG battle system, since it relies on taking turns attacking with the opponent

--

UL: Despite what almost all fans who claim Sans is omnipotent, he's actually got some glaring weaknesses. One such thing is that he is INCREIDBLY lazy, case and point. The fact that he hasn't picked up that sock yet.


Mettaton: Another thing is that Sans doesn't really partake in fights unless he has little to no choice, double that with his low stats, although the Karmic Retribution thankfully helps that out.


UL: And the more Sans fights, the more tired he'll get.

--

WEAKNESSES

Incredibly lazy

-Only gives something his all if it's absolutely necessary

-Won't fight unless he has to

-The reason he lost to Frisk was that he fell asleep while trying to wait him out

-Dodging too many attacks in a row tires him out easily

Low stats

-Has one point in HP, Attack Power, and Defenses

-Karmic Retribution and the large amount of attacks he fires at once make up for his low attack power

-Speed and teleportation make up for his low defenses

--

UL: Even if Sans is one lazy pile of bones, there's no denying that he's someone not to mess with.


Mettaton: Because to put it bluntly, you'll have a-


Sans: SANS-ational time! just wanted to cut in, y'know.


Mettaton: Can you PLEASE stop interrupting my show, Sans!?


Sans: come on, man. i got a Metta-TON of puns!


Mettaton: ...I'm honestly glad you didn't go the obvious route and use Skele-ton...
