Simulation 12: Meeting of the Minds

 Note: This simulation was originally made in July 20th, 2021.




    What's up, everyone? MultiAwesomeness here. Hope you're having a great day, ladies and gentlemen! Anyways, let's get down to business. In this simulation, the tributes will consist of characters from video games and/or animated series that use their wits in order to get the upper hand in fights against stronger opponents (whether it's to strike at their attackers' weak points or to trick them into letting their guard down), as well as to develop technological gadgets and come up with creative ways to accomplish their goals. As seen above, the districts are organized in the following way:

District 1: Miles Tails Prower (the two-tailed fox that's a genius inventor and the best friend of Sonic the Hedgehog) and Futaba Sakura (the hacker of The Phantom Thieves of Hearts from Persona 5).


District 2: Tony Stark a.k.a. Iron Man (founding member of the Avengers) and Reed Richards a.k.a. Mr. Fantastic (leader of the Fantastic Four), the versions from Avengers: EMH.


District 3: Dexter (the protagonist of Dexter's Laboratory), and Jimmy Neutron the Boy Genius.


District 4: The multidimensional traveler Rick Sanchez and Azmuth (the creator of the Omnitrix from the Ben 10 franchise).


District 5: The Pokémon with an alleged IQ of 5,000 known as Alakazam, and Grey Matter (a small and intelligent frog-like alien, from the same race as Azmuth, that Ben Tennyson can transform into).


District 6: Bulma (from Dragon Ball) and Twilight Sparkle (from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic).


District 7: Barbara Gordon a.k.a. Oracle (the mission control for heroes such as the Bat-Family and/or the Justice League, whether in comics or in the DC Universe Online game) and Cynthia (an archaeologist and Champion of the Sinnoh region from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, their remakes and Platinum).


District 8: Professor Layton and the Autobot named Wheeljack.


District 9: Dexter's rival Mandark, and Wile E. Coyote from Looney Tunes.


District 10: Calculator (the mission control for villains in DC Universe Online) and Cyrus (the leader of the villainous Team Galactic from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, their remakes and Platinum).


District 11: Lex Luthor (the DCAU version) and Victor Von Doom a.k.a. Doctor Doom (the version from Avengers: EMH).


District 12: Wave the Swallow (Tails's rival from Sonic Riders) and Goro Akechi (the ace detective from Persona 5, who went from an enemy to the protagonists to an ally, then an enemy once again, and so on and so forth).



    Now, choose your district!! For my part, it was a pretty tough choice between 1, 2, 4, 5, 7 and 11. However, I ultimately chose to go with the team featuring Tails. Tails is my favorite Sonic character, because he has such a relatable backstory, I liked his character development in the Sonic Adventure duology (I consider that games like the Wii version of Sonic Colors, Sonic: Lost World and Sonic Forces did his character dirty, because instead of being a playable character in spite of being involved in the plot of these games, he's just there to provide some exposition but that's it, don't even get me started on the "SoNiC hElP mE" moment from Forces) and I can't wait to see him in action in the Sonic 2 film. I originally wanted to put Bulma in the same team as Tails as a reference to the Youtube channel "Tails and Sonic Pals", whose voice actress has also voiced the character of Bulma in Dragon Ball Z parody videos, but I personally found it more interesting to have the character of Futaba from Persona 5 in the same team as Tails. Ok, enough talk. District 1, I choose you!!


As the tributes stand on their podiums, the horn sounds. The following events occur during The Bloodbath:

- Futaba and Dexter fight for a bag. Futaba strangles Dexter with the straps and runs.

  Futaba: Suprise attack: successful! Now just don't lose!

The time has come to oppose that thumb, and take hold of what is rightfully ours.... THE WORLD!), who proceeds to unleash the primates into The Arena before making his exit, laughing maniacally as he does so:

  Tails: How do ya' like me now Doom?!

  Doctor Doom: None may lay hands on D-


- Iron Man: I don't care who you are but this ends now!
